Chapter 162: Look at the pie porridge
Yuan Qingping saw that she really didn't know anything, so she explained: "Tomorrow, Chu Mingcui will open a porridge shed outside the city to help the beggars in the city, and two days ago, Princess Ji took her illness to Qinghua Temple to pray for the flood people, make a wish, and knelt all night. ”
Yuan Qing Ling Chang saw it, "Princess Ji is going to pray for blessings when she is sick?" I've been kneeling all night, I'm afraid that my condition will get worse, right? ”
"Yes, I heard that the condition is serious, and the emperor also gave me medicine." Yuan Qingping suddenly looked at her in surprise, "No, you don't even know this news as the princess of Chu?" Even I know that. ”
Yuan Qingling smiled bitterly, "I'm lonely. ”
She didn't even know about the floods.
After a while, she asked, "Where is the flood?" ”
"Hell knows, I heard it's a small town on the border."
"I'll ask Yu Wenhao when I go back." Yuan Qing Ling said.
Yuan Qingping glanced at her, and raised her eyebrows, "You just call the prince by his name?" ”
"Otherwise?" Yuan Qingling didn't come back to his senses for a while, and he was still thinking about the flood in a border town? If there really is, Yu Wenhao should know.
"If your father hears it, he'll beat you to death." Yuan Qing said.
Yuan Qingling smiled faintly, "He can't hear me, and he can't see me." ”
"However, he doesn't dare to beat you up now." Yuan Qing shrugged his shoulders, the corners of his mouth were indifferent, "I don't know what I'm thinking lately, I always take guests home, and then ask me to go out to meet the ceremony." ”
"Isn't it? Who are they? Have you seen this before? Yuan Qingling asked.
"I've never seen it But who it is, how do I know? But I can probably guess it. Yuan Qingping was bored.
Yuan Qingling looked suddenly, "Your marriage?" ”
Yuan Qingping looked out, "Otherwise, what else can it be?" ”
Yuan Qingling asked, "What do you think of yourself?" ”
Yuan Qingping glanced at her and said sarcastically, "What can I think?" As long as it wasn't like the one from the Yu family who would kill me before, I basically had no possibility of resisting. ”
She couldn't have any other desires for the future.
When it comes to getting married, it is never her turn to give advice.
resisted before because the Chu family's big knife was directly on her neck, and if she married, she would be dead.
Thinking that Yuan Qingling had almost died for her, a trace of complicated feelings arose in his heart.
She used to think that this sister was useless, and she was greedy for vanity.
It's really changed a lot.
"Eldest sister, pay attention, now that you are the princess of Chu, even if you don't mess with others, people may not be willing to let you be at peace."
Yuan Qingling was stunned for a moment, didn't Fang just discuss her marriage?
Why did you suddenly advise her? This sister's train of thought has become so fast.
"Tomorrow, Chu Mingcui will open a porridge shed, why don't we go and see it too?" Yuan Qing Ling said.
"What's there to see? Do you want to cheer her on? Yuan Qing was puzzled.
"Chu Mingcui doesn't look like a kind-hearted person, but if she is willing to do a few things that are beneficial to poor people for the sake of fame, it is not a good thing."
Yuan Qingping looked at her, "It's good for the poor, what's good for you?" You're not from a poor family, and that has nothing to do with you. ”
Yuan Qingling smiled, "It's okay, but it's good for the people, isn't it worth being happy?" ”
"I don't know if it's worth it or not, and it's not my benefit." Yuan Qingping said that she didn't mean to be scared, but she really didn't understand why she thought it was a good thing.
Yuan Qingling said: "Because, this is the people's livelihood." ”
Yuan Qingping didn't understand, but when he looked at her, his eyes were a little more strange, "You really want to be the crown princess, otherwise what do you want to do?" ”
Yuan Qing Ling smiled.
Being the crown princess is not something she wants to do or doesn't want.
If Yu Wenhao is the crown prince, then she must be the crown princess.
If Yu Wenhao is not, or has no intention of the position of the crown prince, then the position of the crown princess is completely unattractive to her.
The next day, the sisters went out together and went outside the city gates.
There is a large open space outside the city gate, and now temporary simple tents have been set up, with a few large iron pots, and the fire under them is burning fiercely, and the rice is boiling in the iron pot, and the aroma is overflowing, attracting dozens of poor people and beggars who have not eaten white rice porridge for a long time.
Chu Mingcui hasn't arrived yet, so the porridge pie has not yet begun.
It's just that the porridge is boiled on the spot, and there are hungry people all around, and people continue to come, there are only a few iron pots, it seems that only dozens of people can eat, and the more people, the less porridge they will get.
Someone waited a little impatiently, and stepped forward to ask the person who was boiling porridge, "Uncle, when can I eat porridge?" ”
The person who boiled the porridge said coldly: "What's the hurry? Don't you see this boiling? At least we'll have to wait another hour. ”
"Another hour?" Everyone is a little impetuous, "At this hour, I'm afraid the rice is boiling." ”
The person who boiled the porridge did not speak, but withdrew some firewood, and when the fire was small, the porridge did not boil so much.
Yuan Qingling felt very strange, this porridge seemed to be almost boiled, why didn't he send it?
Now that there are more and more people, the pressure of dividing porridge will increase, and the people in line are the most impatient, prone to contradictions, and the scene will be chaotic.
Therefore, when there are few people, it is most appropriate to slowly divide a part first to relieve the pressure during the peak period.
If you wait another hour, there will be a lot of people coming, right?
In the capital, there are many rich people, but there are still many poor people in the surrounding villages and towns, and rice is not ordinary to eat.
With free rice porridge to eat, who wouldn't want to come and eat a bowl?
"What's going on? It's all this time, and you still don't send it? Yuan Qingping waited until she was impatient, she didn't want to drink porridge, she just thought that the eldest sister came to see the porridge, and she should leave after reading it.
Yuan Qingling quickly understood, "Chu Mingcui hasn't arrived yet, since she wants to make a good name, she naturally wants to come here in person and be admired by the people." ”
Yuan Qingping said in disgust: "It's very hypocritical. ”
Yuan Qingling smiled, "It doesn't matter to the people, they just eat this mouthful of porridge, at most they can say thank you to Princess Qi." ”
Yuan Qingling expected it right, and waited for almost an hour before he saw the carriage coming slowly.
At this time, the people waiting for the porridge were already very impatient, they had waited for so long, and it was a pity to leave, and they had never seen such a porridge being distributed.
Before the carriage arrived at the porridge shed, two maids helped Princess Qi get out of the carriage.
The people who were waiting cheered, because everyone actually understood in their hearts that they would only start to distribute porridge when this "great good man" arrived.
Chu Mingcui was very pleasantly surprised, this porridge has not yet started to be spiened, and it has this effect?
Sure enough, my grandfather's advice was good.
