Chapter 214: Chance Encounter
For Cui Muhua to say that the door is good to make the Jiang family heartbroken, it is not easy to find a suitable one, settled, naturally have to work hard, complete the six rites, it is best to choose a day at the end of the year to get married. Cui Muhua did not agree, and insisted that he would get married after the township trial.
Next, in order to prepare for the bridal ceremony, Jiang was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. Cui Keyin went over to see if there was anything she wanted to help, how could the Jiang family dare to use her? When he went, he let people serve her carefully, and he sent her to offer.
Cui Keyin had no choice but not to trouble her.
On the side of the princess of Duanfen County, she was often invited over, mainly to understand the customs and habits of the Cui family, so that Zhou Xue could prepare the dowry.
On this day, Cui Keyin took a car home from the Duanfen County Palace, and the carriage stopped halfway through, Zilan thought that there was an assassin, so she first protected Cui Keyin, and then asked what was going on outside.
The coachman said outside: "Back to the princess, five or six children are scrambling in the middle of the road to grab the steamed buns to eat. The little one was afraid of hurting the child, so he stopped driving. Please forgive the princess. ”
Five or six children are grabbing steamed buns to eat?! Cui Keyin's heart trembled, and Zilan lifted the curtain of the car and looked out. I saw a few dirty children rolling on the ground like mud monkeys.
Cui Keyin has no mother since she was a child, and she is about to become a mother, so she is very soft-hearted, so she asks people to bring her children over.
Five children, the eldest is eight or nine years old, and the youngest is only five or six years old. The eldest child clutched a small piece of steamed bun tightly in his hand and looked at Cui Keyin vigilantly. The youngest child's face was torn, and blood was slowly dripping down. These children, all of them are skinny and skinny, and they look like they can't eat enough for a long time.
Cui Keyin was very sad. Who doesn't say that the capital is prosperous. I didn't expect that it was just a superficial phenomenon, but there were people in the corner who didn't even want their lives for a piece of steamed buns.
The actual person in charge now is Zhou Heng, but before Zhou Heng, Wang Zhe was in power for three or four years. Wang Zheshi is a lot of harm.
Cui Keyin pushed Zilan away, and asked the child standing in front of her softly, "What about your parents?" ”
The child said indifferently, "It's dead." ”
Cui Keyin felt sad for a while, and said, "Would you like to go back home with me?" Come back with me, and you will have clothes to wear and a full meal to eat. ”
The five children discussed, and one of them, eight or nine years old, said, "Do you want to trick us back and sell us?" ”
Zilan shouted, "What nonsense? This is the princess of Jin. I will take you in. It is your blessing. ”
The child said, "Is it the daughter-in-law of the King of Jin who asked people to build the city wall?" ”
What is this called? Cui Keyin's guards and maids all frowned.
Cui Keyin smiled: "Yes, I am the daughter-in-law of King Jin, are you willing to go back with me?" I won't sell you, but I'll leave you in the house first. I've found a good place for you to go again. Settle you well. ”
"You're really not going to sell us?" The eight- or nine-year-old said, "We don't eat you for nothing. What we have is strength and can work. ”
It was originally quite ridiculous, but Cui Keyin felt sad when she heard it. said: "I will definitely not sell you, I don't need you to work for the time being, I will take care of my body first." ”
The children agreed. The guards took one with each other, took all five children on the horse, and returned to the Jin Palace.
Lu Ying instructed them to bathe and change their clothes first, and then let them have a good meal.
Cui Keyin invited Yan Qingyun and Mama Geng over with a heavy heart.
Yan Qingyun has rested for many days, and his spirit has long recovered, but he has nothing to do, so he can't help but be a little bored. I heard that Cui Keyin was invited, and I felt that something was coming, so I came over happily.
Cui Keyin told the story of meeting these children on the road, and said, "I want to set up a good hall, what do you two think?" ”
Mama Geng has been taking care of Cui Keyin's dowry. In the past two years, Fushenglou has taken over the royal business, although it is not clear that the name of Cui Keyin is used, but what kind of person is the shopkeeper Meng, it is a shrewd person who can also give birth to two copper plates, with Cui Keyin, the big Buddha town, more and more long-sleeved and good at dancing, faintly pressing the old rival Sijijin, and becoming the first silver building in the capital.
The income of Fusheng Building alone in a year is astronomical. Coupled with the Su family's dowry, it has more than tripled in Cui Keyin's hands over the years. There is also Cui Keyin's dowry when she got married, and every shop has a good income. Calculated in this way, Cui Keyin's net worth is really very impressive.
Mama Geng knew that Cui Keyin came to her to ask her if she wanted to open a good hall, and the money would be enough. She carefully calculated it and said, "I don't know how large-scale the princess is going to open a good hall?" Is it only open in the capital, or is it open to other places? ”
Cui Keyin really didn't expect this, and couldn't help but look at Yan Qingyun.
Yan Qingyun smiled and said, "The princess is smart and beyond the reach of others. If you want to win a good reputation, there is no better way to open a good church. Although I didn't see anything in the past few years, if I persisted, I would definitely be able to gain a reputation for being kind and charitable. Yu Wangye's prestige is also very favorable. ”
King Jin and his wife are one, and the good deeds done by Princess Jin are rare, and few people even praise the prince of Jin.
Cui Keyin shook her head and said, "I'm not trying to be famous, but I want to do something for these orphans." It's still a peaceful and prosperous age, but these children have lost their parents and become orphans living on the streets, and they don't even want their lives to fight for a piece of dirty buns. ”
If he wasn't born in a big family like the Cui family, after his parents died, how could he not be one of these children? I'm afraid it's worse than them.
Yan Qingyun saw that Cui Keyin was moved by her true feelings, and knew that she felt nostalgic for her life experience, and said with emotion: "If the princess wants to do it, her subordinates should do their best to help." It's just that once the good hall is set up, the silver will be like flowing water; Second, if the princess is famous in the world, I am afraid that the queen mother will not like it. It is better to invite the Queen Mother to do this good deed together, and someone will share the cost; Second, it will not be jealous of the Queen Mother. ”
The Queen Mother is sick, and she keeps taking medicine every day, and she is not getting better until now.
Cui Keyin thought that the Queen Mother was sick because Emperor Zhi'an asked Zhou Heng to correct the performance, and she was disgusted and unwilling to do things with her, so she said, "It's better to invite the queen and Concubine De to join the shares together." Concubine De's family is a huge rich man in Luoyang, and the silver is on the top, so don't worry. ”
Yan Qingyun said: "That's very good. There are many poor people in the world, if you really want to save them, how can you save them? We can only save those who are desperate and save their lives. Moreover, it was those children who saved them and taught them to read, firstly for the use of the princess, and secondly for the cultivation of talents for the country. ”
This is the scope of the demarcation.
Cui Keyin said: "Those women who were persecuted by their husband's family were also saved. ”
Saying this, she felt that she had to buy some land so that these people could have a place to stay.
Yan Qingyun said: "Start from the capital first, and then promote it to other places, and even to the whole country. This is a long-term thing, which cannot be done in ten years, or twenty years, but one day it can be done. ”
In other words, he was willing to devote the rest of his life to this matter.
Cui Keyin got up and saluted him and thanked him: "I thank Mr. Yan on behalf of the poor people in the world." (To be continued.) )
