160 Vegetables are in short supply

The county seat of Luxian County.

It was already dawn, but the streets that used to be bustling were closed with shops and few pedestrians, and if you could still see the smoke coming out of the houses, you would have thought that this was an empty city.

Dongxue pushed open the courtyard door with a half-empty vegetable basket and returned home with a sad face.

"How?" Yuzhu came out with a basin to pour water, just in time to see the winter snow returning from grocery shopping, and asked with concern.

Dongxue shook her head and stepped forward to remove the cloth from the vegetable basket, revealing a small handful of green beans inside.

"Only this? What about greens? Yuzhu glanced at it and was surprised.

Dongxue sighed, re-covered the cloth, walked into the kitchen and put the food basket on the table, shook her head and said:

"No, this is the last bit of vegetable, it doesn't look very fresh, I don't know how long the vegetable farmer has put it, but such wilted beans, a small handful costs 300 yuan, I got up early today to line up, only picked up this handful, everything else is gone."

Yuzhu put the basin outside the door, followed into the kitchen, and when he heard Dongxue's words, his expression became serious, "You are not allowed to enter and leave the city, the fields of vegetable farmers are outside, and I don't know how much it has been washed away by the heavy rain, even if there are some left, they can't be sent to the city, and it seems that I have to drink white porridge next." ”

Dongxue nodded, "Yes, we subordinates can pay it back, even if they suffer Mrs. and Miss, where have they suffered this crime." ”

"That's it, don't talk about it, Sister Yuzhu, you can prepare breakfast, I'll go and see if Miss and Miss Lin are up."

Yuzhu bowed his head, let Dongxue take the basin away, rolled up his sleeves and prepared breakfast.

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door, followed by Dongxue's whispered inquiry, "Miss, are you up?" ”

"Well, come in." Yang Qingqing responded while handing scissors to Lin Meiyi, who was sitting opposite.

Dongxue pushed the door in, saw the two of them sitting at the table in their underwear, and asked curiously, "Miss Lin, what are you doing?" ”

"It's my sachet!" Yang Qingqing replied excitedly, staring at the pink sachet that was gradually forming in Lin Meiyi's hand, looking forward to it.

Seeing that Miss was so happy, Dong Xue looked at her helplessly and dotingly, got up and went to wash the two of them with face water, and waited for them to wash.

Lin Meiyi has been living here for two days, due to the current tense situation in Lu County, Mrs. Wang does not allow them to go out, which is boring, so she has to pick up needles and threads to make something to relieve their boredom.

After a while, a pink sachet embroidered with white roses was ready, and Lin Meiyi handed her to Yang Qingqing, who couldn't wait to reach out to pick it up, and got up to dress inside.

Yang Qingqing followed, and while showing off her sachet to Dong Xue, she said happily: "Yiyi, the sachet you made is the best-looking sachet in the world!" ”

"Exaggeration." Lin Meiyi said with a smile.

Yang Qingqing shook her head, "Not at all, I think so." ”

Dong Xue put the hot water on the outer shelf, and helplessly interrupted her young lady's boasting, "Miss, Miss Lin, let's wash up first." ”

Lin Meiyi gently pinched the flesh on Yang Qingqing's face, and then passed.

Yang Qingqing locked the new sachet into the dresser and followed out.

After packing up the image, the family came to report: "Miss Lin, your family's subordinate Ah Da is here." ”

"yes, I see." Lin Meiyi nodded in response, looked back at Yang Qingqing, who was about to go to breakfast, and motioned for her to go over first and go out to have a look by herself.

"Hurry up, then." Yang Qingqing reluctantly advised.

Dongxue felt helpless when she saw it, how could her own lady be so clingy!

Fortunately, Miss Lin has a good temper and does not dislike it.

Lin Mei watched Yang Qingqing's master and servant go to the front hall, and then turned around and went to the back door of the county office.

The door opened, and Ah Da stood outside the door, carrying a basket in his hand, and when he saw her come out, he hurriedly stepped forward.

"Miss."

"What is this?" Lin Meiyi asked, pointing to the basket.

Ah Da explained, "It was sent by the shopkeeper Qiu, it seems to be green vegetables." ”

"Well, it seems that there is a shortage of vegetables in the house, but we can add food to them." Lin Meiyi nodded, took the basket of vegetables, and moved out of the way, "You come in first." ”

When Ah Da entered the door, he asked if the horse had returned.

Ah Da nodded: "The horse has been returned." ”

"Where's the ox cart?"

"Shopkeeper Qiu said that she helped raise it, and the forage is enough, so don't worry, but ....." Ah Da lowered his head, showing a look of embarrassment, Lin Meiyi signaled him to say whatever he wanted, and he lowered his voice and said:

"Master, Shopkeeper Qiu wants to ask you if Lu County can stay."

After speaking, he hurriedly raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that there was no one else, so Ah Da returned to nature.

Lin Meiyi frowned, what did Shopkeeper Qiu mean by this?

Could it be that the current Lu County is not safe enough to make her anxious?

Lin Meiyi couldn't help but think of Mrs. Wang and Yang Qingqing's actions of leaving the city early in the morning before the incident, could it be ...... Yang County Ling is ready to give up?

That's why let the wife and daughter take the first step, so as not to be affected when they get it?

Thinking of this, Lin Meiyi's brows furrowed even deeper, this natural disaster was not supported by the plot of the original book, so she couldn't predict the final result.

In the past two days, she stayed in the county office, and she didn't see Yang County Order much, although she was closest to the birthplace of first-hand information, she didn't know much information.

Yesterday, when she was having breakfast, she heard Mrs. Wang say that Yang County's order had written to the imperial court to ask for support, and as long as the imperial court sent relief food, this crisis could be overcome.

But the document was transmitted to the imperial court, and then waited for the imperial court to react, and it would take a month at the earliest.

In the past two days, the porridge has become thinner, and the victims outside the city have complained that there are small riots every day, and the relationship between the city and the outside of the city is very tense.

For a month, who knows what these little riots will turn into?

It's no wonder that Shopkeeper Qiu feels uneasy, even she is a little worried about the situation in the backer village now.

So many people have nothing to eat, and there are still in the mountain villages, if those victims know about it, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Master?" Ah Xiao, who hadn't received a reply for a long time, called Lin Meiyi in a loud voice.

Hearing his voice, Lin Meiyi immediately came back to her senses and ordered: "You quickly go to the city to find out the situation outside the city, I want the most true facts." ”

"Yes!" Ah Da bowed his head and immediately went out to investigate.

Lin Meiyi closed the door, sorted out her emotions, and carried the vegetables back to the front hall for dinner.

At noon, Ah Da came back, Yang Qingqing didn't know what the master and servant were doing mysteriously, but he still gave the room to the two of them intimately, and took Dongxue to chat with Mrs. Wang.

"Drink your saliva first and then speak slowly." Lin Meiyi saw Ah Da's sweat-soaked clothes and handed over the poured tea.

Ah Da was not polite, picked up and drank three glasses in a row, and then he felt that he was alive.

The sun outside was so hot that it almost didn't make him faint.

But fortunately, his hard work was in vain, and he heard a lot of news.
