The heavy snow did not stop for more than ten days, and Huiya sat in the room with the silver frost charcoal brazier and looked at the account book.

Hui Ya carefully looked at the daily disaster relief accounts, and saw the bedding and cotton jackets that were released like flowing water every day, and the money and rice grains that were spent, Hui Ya had no idea in her heart, it was impossible. Thinking that there would be a lot of time before leaving Chun'er, and that this soup would have to last for two or three months, Huiya couldn't help but have a headache, and how much money would have to be spent on it.

Although I know that these silver money is worth the money and can save a lot of people, but whose money is spent and who is distressed, although Huiya is not the master of the house, but she personally handles this matter, the silver is spent a lot, and it will continue to be spent, Rao knows that this is a good thing, and Huiya's heart is also a little uncomfortable.

Because of the perfect countermeasures, and when the heavy snow fell, the Zhao government had already sent people to patrol the slums in Nancheng and organized the people of Nancheng to clean the snow on the roof. Therefore, the snow fell much heavier this year than in previous years, but the collapse of houses in the slums did not happen on a large scale, and even if one or two houses occasionally fell too poorly, there were no casualties.

As for the almsgiving of clothes and porridge, because of the prince's decree, when these mansions came out to act, they had the name of giving porridge by order. This order to give porridge is said well, and it is specially advocated by the emperor to sympathize with the people of Limin, and as courtiers, they have the heart to pray for the emperor, so they have responded.

Under the unified arrangement, the porridge sheds of each family have blossomed in all directions, especially in the south of the city, the porridge shed of each family stretches for hundreds of meters, and the people of the old, young, poor and sick can take the bowl here twice a day to mix a food and clothing.

It's just that there are always two sides to the story. If there is something that is done well, there will naturally be something that is not done well.

"Young lady, it's not good, it's not good! The rice and grain that our Lu Guogong Mansion transported to the porridge shed today. It turned out to be all broken moldy rice, and seeing that it was about to be time to boil porridge, the stewards were in a hurry! The snow was still falling, and the incense branches hurriedly walked in from outside.

"What? Moldy rice? Where is there such rice grain in our Lu Guogong Mansion! Hui Ya stood up immediately when she heard this, and the ledger in her hand was thrown on the kang in a flash. You spread the word, the moldy rice is not allowed to go to the pot, put the steward in charge of the rice grain today, let the rich and noble buy the rice grain in the nearest grain store, and top today's share. I want to see who has the courage to use moldy rice to count the porridge on orders. ”

Hui Ya's eyes widened, now this matter is not just a soup kitchen for the Lu Guogong Mansion, this is an important time for the prince's party to fully support the prince to do big things and fight for the world, if there is a moldy rice incident, eat bad people and lose their lives. But it's a big delay.

After telling the Duchess of Lu Guo and Mrs. Shizi, Huiya hurriedly changed her clothes and went out of the house in a carriage, and when she arrived at the place where she was porridge in Nancheng, she saw that the pot was already boiling hundreds of catties of new grain that Fugui had bought back herself, and Huiya's heart was slightly relaxed.

"Where is the steward of the grain transporter, let's go and see." Huiya looked at the scene of the porridge in order, nodded in affirmation, and then turned her head to Xiangzhi and said.

"Back to the young lady, the two stewards are accused of being in the small inn next to them, and there is no suitable place nearby for questioning. Why don't you take them home? "After Xiangzhi got married, she was brought into the Luguo Mansion by Huiya with her man, and today it was Xiangzhi's husband who found out about the moldy rice, and accused the steward and sent someone back to report the letter.

"It's fine." Huiya nodded. Walking in the direction of the carriage, the weather was extremely cold and extremely cold, Rao is Huiya was wearing a big hat, and she also felt that the cold was pressing, and it was okay to stand next to the porridge pot, and stay away from the source of the fire. I felt a chill all over my body.

"Thank you, Madame, for your kindness!" The poor people queuing up to receive the porridge next to them, after seeing Huiya, heard that this was the owner of the soup kitchen, and their yellow and thin faces were full of gratitude, and they all wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Huiya.

"Hurry up, please get up, you should pay more attention to your body when it's cold. This soup soup is the emperor's grace, you have to be grateful, thank the emperor and the crown prince for their grace. Huiya looked at these people, and was sincerely thanked by them, and her heart was stirred.

Seeing that although these people had vegetables on their faces and their clothes were very ragged, they were not unclothed, and they couldn't survive this winter, Huiya's heart felt better, so that the kneeling people hurriedly got up, and she hurried back to the Luguo Mansion.

On the carriage back to the house, Xiangzhi told Huiya about the two stewards one by one, and the two stewards were not from the main house of the Luguo Mansion, but all of them were the stewards of the second room.

Because the second room is attached to the main house for survival, the matter of soup porridge is the head of the main house, and the Duchess of Lu Guo is not stingy in terms of money, and all the money is from the main house. When the old lady of the second room heard the news, she came over to say that she wanted to do her best, but she cried and said that she couldn't come up with the money, and the Duchess of Lu Guo thought about it, so she decided to let the second room come out with some help, which could be regarded as a part of their hearts.

"I really didn't expect such a thing!" When Duchess Lu Guo heard what Huiya returned, she didn't believe it in her heart, after all, she was an old woman for decades, and Duchess Lu Guo knew that the old lady in the second room looked ugly, but she felt that she didn't even want to be greedy for this little bit of porridge.

When Hui Ya mentioned the two stewards of the second room to the Duchess of Lu Guo, and took half a bag of moldy broken rice mixed with sand, the two stewards denied it, and they did not dare to bear the sin of exchanging rice and grain privately.

"The people in the second room are too different to do things, this is a major matter related to the life and death of the people, how can it be caused by their temperament!" Duchess Lu only believed Hui Ya's words at this time, she slammed the table, her eyes were burning and almost burst into flames, Lu Guogong's mansion is also the queen's maiden family, the prince's maternal grandfather's family, there is such an unseemly thing, it is really embarrassing to die.

"Let's go, let's go to the East Courtyard and say!" Duchess Lu Guo gritted her teeth and said with hatred. took Mrs. Shizi and Huiya, and let people carry the two shivering stewards, as well as the half bag of moldy rice as evidence, and went to the east courtyard where the second room was located.
