Chapter 279: Disaster Relief
"Cheng, I'll go and shout early in the morning!" The boss stood up and walked towards the back room as he spoke, turning around and facing Chen Chunhua in the middle of the ring. "Daughter-in-law, why are you busy with this?"
"What can we do, we live so well in the house, we can't take care of ourselves, think about it, Xu Zi is busy with work across the river, and he can't look at those who have no place to live and no food to do some things like stealing chickens and dogs, and dying on the streets!"
The boss nodded and said. "This is also true, when you do a good deed and accumulate virtue for your ancestors!"
"Daughter-in-law, rest!" Seeing that Chen Chunhua was still writing, the third child reached out and took her hand and said. "Daughter-in-law"
Chen Chunhua looked at the third child fixedly, she also knew that the third child was unhappy because Xu Zi came back to rest with her upstairs at night, and the boss didn't need to say anything about it, but she just didn't say good things to coax the third child, he ate the taste, but there were other thoughts in it!
Say not to ask, she really didn't ask for a few days in a row, but the third child couldn't hold it back, and told Chen Chunhua what was in her heart!
Seeing his daughter-in-law looking at himself like this, the third child scratched his head and said. "Daughter-in-law, what's the matter, what are you doing looking at me like this?"
Chen Chunhua saw the boss come out, beckoned to him, and the three of them sat down happily, and Chen Chunhua spoke. "Big brother, third brother, I bothered to send food, most of it was for Xu Zi, Li'er inside, not to mention that you are also honest, but the third brother told me last time, I always felt that I owed Xu Zi, just because he saved his life!"
Hearing this, the third child bowed his head slightly. Chen Chunhua looked at him like this, reached out and held his hand, and said. "Third brother, no matter what you say, the past is always in the past, if you really feel that you owe Xu Zi, it is better to live a good life as a family in the future, this is true!"
"Daughter-in-law, I know, but. I always feel that there are some things that are not easy to say. He's not the second brother, he's a little bit of a life! ”
Chen Chunhua smiled and said. "Third brother, don't hide your thoughts. Wait for Xu Zina to finish the errand of crossing the river and flooding. I'll talk to him. I didn't say it before, but it was because of him that I entered the door, so I have to take care of it! ”
How could she not see the unhappiness of the eldest and third children. Just don't say it, Xu Zi has done a lot of things for her before, and this new marriage must not be biased against him!
The eldest and the third nodded, they still couldn't make up their minds about this matter for their daughter-in-law, but now they realized that the daughter-in-law knew better than both of them, and it was just for the sake of the people in the house, and said. "Daughter-in-law, you are in charge of this matter, and we will all listen to you!"
"That's it, you can't shake your face like this in the future, you said, there are more people outside who don't know it, who is as good as you?" Chen Chunhua has also thought through this time, there are some things that should be said or have to be said, but you can't bring it up, it will take a while!
The three of them talked for a while, but the eldest didn't have anything to do, it was the third child, he always felt that he owed Xu Zi a life, and he was entangled in his heart, but he thought about it a little more, Xu Zi was such a person, he would not take this matter and say anything!
Early in the morning of the second day, the boss and more than a dozen men in the village sent food to Liaocheng, and when the boss and they arrived in Liaocheng, Baijing sent grain to cross the river earlier, and Baiyao sent his cronies to cross the river with the boss!
Before the boss went out, Chen Chunhua explained what he said, and said it to Bai Yao, and Bai Yao went to Zhaojia Village!
At this time, the third child led the sixth son Shunzi, and connected with several big men in the village, and went to shout from village to village, and collected a lot of grain and money, although it was not much, but it was good!
When Bai Yao came, Chen Chunhua also trimmed her outfit, Bai Yao looked at Chen Chunhua holding a gong in his hand, and said. "Boss Chen, who are you?"
"Don't ask, get in the carriage!" After Chen Chunhua finished speaking, she got into the carriage, Bai Yao nodded, and the two went to the town, and on the way, Chen Chunhua told Bai Yao her own plan!
When Bai Yao heard this, he said. "Boss Chen thinks this can be done?"
"It will definitely be possible, and when you get to the town, you will ask the mayor to come forward, so it's even better!" After arriving in the town with Baiyao, the two went to the town house!
The mayor listened to Chen Chunhua's words, and didn't say anything, so he went out with Chen Chunhua, and then the six sons and Shunzi went to Fengxiang Restaurant earlier, and the shopkeeper would only have one voice, this Chen Chunhua is no one else, and he can take care of his restaurant in the future, and now he is the daughter of Chunnong, so he has to say nothing!
When Chen Chunhua, Bai Yao and the mayor arrived at Fengxiang Restaurant, a simple platform had been set up outside, and people passing by surrounded them one after another, and they didn't see what kind of fame they were going to do!
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the daughter of Chunnong, presumably many people must have seen it, that's right, she was the one who opened a tofu shop in Qingshui Town before!" The mayor took the lead and said to the people below!
Then Chen Chunhua walked up with a gong, the hammer in his hand, with a bang, rang, and many people rushed to hear the sound, Chen Chunhua stood on the high platform, cleared his throat, and said. "Fellow villagers, have you heard about the flood disaster across the river?"
"Got it!" After Chen Chunhua finished speaking, the people below answered!
Chen Chunhua nodded and continued. "The flood of crossing the river, even the neighboring counties of the river have been flooded, and now those people are not full of food and clothing, they are all lying on the street to rest, and even those babies who are less than a month old can't even drink milk!
Guys, do you know, those people for a potato melon, hit the head and bleed, but also to rob people of food, groups of stealing, the year before last, I that Zhaojia Village was flooded, compared to the river flood, it is nothing, crossing the river, even the county town is flooded, not to mention what to eat, I said with this and everyone today, I don't want anything, I just want a conscience, there is a stutter to stutter, after all, I will not be hungry from the people in the house! ”
"I also saw Boss Zhao pulling several wagons of grain here, and asked him, I heard him say that he was sent to cross the river!"
"I saw it too!"
Chen Chunhua looked at everyone like this and said. "I Chen Chunhua, everyone should also know, I don't take advantage of others, if you think about the pity of those who cross the river, they will help, but also do a good thing, if you give more, I will write down the name, turn back and engrave the name on the good person tablet, so that everyone knows!"
"I don't want to be a good person, I just think about those people who are pitiful!" When the woman finished speaking, she took out a few copper coins and put them in the wooden box that the sixth son had taken!
With this first place, there is a second place, and then everyone is rushing to come, this is a small town, and the most given is only one or two silver coins, Chen Chunhua wrote down the names of several people who gave one or two silver coins! Of course, there are also many people who went back and brought some catties of grain, corn, white flour, and local melons, all of which are enough, and it is not enough to load a carriage!
Bai Yao looked at this and frowned, although this method is good, but it is far from enough to put aside these things made up by Qingshui Town, how can Chen Chunhua not be sure?
The reason for what she did was simple, if she was not wrong, many people would come up to her house today!
It wasn't until noon that Chen Chunhua and the others returned to Zhaojia Village, and after they went back, they poured out all the grain, and they got the same piece, and then counted the silver money, and the total was only one hundred taels!
Bai Yao looked at the broken silver and copper coins on the table and said. "Boss Chen, this"
"No hurry!" Chen Chunhua smiled and said. "Aren't there many big families in Qingshui Town who have bought land to repair buildings? Since there are many people from those big families, how can they not say it after hearing this letter? ”
Bai Yao was stunned and said. "That's what you planned, but did you think they wouldn't come?"
"As you said, I am the daughter of the spring farmer who was enshrined by the saint, and this matter is also a flood across the river, saying that it is a flood if it is small, and it is a big thing, it is a national event, and this matter will definitely spread, and Rao is a big family with a head and face will definitely think about this!"
Only then did Bai Yao know what the good man monument Chen Chunhua said was, so it was!
As expected, in the afternoon of the same day, the people who came to Zhaojia Village never stopped, and on the road from Qingshui Town to Zhaojia Village, the carriages were lined up one after another!
This situation shocked Bai Yao again, and Chen Chunhua was sitting in front of the door at the moment to record the name, and wrote down the name of that family, how much money was out, and what was out one by one!
I have to say that since these people are here, there will be no less shots, and the least of them are more than fifty taels of silver, until the sky is dark, Chen Chunhua quit work, and see that no one is coming behind, so the money is collected!
Bai Yao stayed to rest today, Chen Chunhua didn't care about him, and counted the silver money, this afternoon there were 80,000 taels of silver alone, and 760 bags on white noodles!
"Boss Chen, worthy of Boss Chen, you are really a noble person for those refugees!" When Bai Yao said this, he didn't feel exaggerated at all, it was true!
He can't do that!
Chen Chunhua smiled and said. "Please also ask the young master to send these grains to cross the river tomorrow, and by the way, my third brother will also go!"
"That's nature!" Chen Chunhua nodded, she can't think about what to buy with these silver money, the food is tight, if it is successful, she really wants to go to cross the river, but after thinking about it, she feels that it can't be done, the rice and the millet are in the house, if she leaves, the rice and the millet will definitely make trouble, the baby is so small, how can she be willing!
The daughter of the spring farmer, pooled the money, in order to cross the river for disaster relief, this matter spread ten or ten hundreds, and soon became a household name, and the name of the daughter of the spring farmer is indeed good!
If this matter is replaced by those local officials, no one really believes it, Chen Chunhua can grow rice, and make fans, vermicelli, or something, I know that her name is admired tightly, how can those local officials compare? (To be continued......)
