Chapter 187: One Shift
How much relief food can be added up to a group of people who have fled the famine.
In a month, it will be thousands of catties of grain to death.
It is impossible to give them fine grain, it is impossible to give them a lot of money, and it is impossible to let the new displaced people who have fled the famine sit at home without working and eat enough.
Xie Wenyuan, the concubine of Wu'anhou, walked towards his mother's courtyard, and relied on common sense to analyze it in his heart.
Although he didn't know the specific number of people in the child's mouth, he could roughly guess by common sense.
But because of this common-sense algorithm, Xie Wenyuan couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't figure it out.
In other words, he counted more, a few thousand catties of coarse grain, and he could count it into silver at most twenty or thirty taels of silver a month?
For twenty or thirty taels of silver, his sister-in-law's family actually did something greedy for relief food?
I didn't listen to the little baby's eloquent telling Minrui, saying that Renjia Village, Renjia Village is right, then it can't be wrong. His sister-in-law is married to Ren Zixuan, and Ren Zixuan's father heard that he is the Li Zheng of Renjia Village.
for twenty or thirty taels, silver, silver.
Xie Wenyuan kept talking about this number in his heart, and the more he talked about it, the more it seemed like a small flame was burning in his heart.
It's just, it's just, it's unbelievable, it's unreasonable.
Hou Fu's face, if this thing gets out, I can't afford to lose my face.
When it spreads, the little people outside will laugh off their big teeth, and the streets and alleys will laugh at the Hou Mansion like a speech book.
Yu, the head of the Hou Mansion, also stared at her son after hearing this, and her eyes flashed with disbelief.
Xie Wenyuan took the tea handed over by the maid, and while drinking tea to pour out the fire in his heart, he didn't raise his head and said: "Mother doesn't need to look at me, eight or nine are not far from ten, this thing is true." You can't figure it out, I've thought about it. ”
Yu asked the maid to call Aunt Bai, didn't Xie Wenhui come back to see her aunt?
Three days and two heads back, just right.
took a deep breath and asked the maid to call Xie Wenyu, that is, Xie Wenhui's brother, her concubine who was more literary than her in the eyes of the waiting master.
In addition, the housekeepers and mothers-in-law of various courtyards were also called.
After arranging, Yu said to Xie Wenyuan: "My son, go to the front yard and explain to your father, tell him the original, inform him that this matter is twenty or thirty taels of silver, and inform him that the Lu family knows." ”
"Mother?"
"Heh," Yu smiled mockingly, and waved his hand at Xie Wenyuan: "Go ahead, you have to look at these filthy things less." ”
Xie Wenhui, Ren Ziwei's wife, knelt in the courtyard.
Aunt Bai also wanted to ask Mrs. why she asked Wen Hui to kneel in the courtyard as soon as they met, and called so many people to watch.
What kind of day is this now, how cool it is, the daughter of the married family, what are you doing here, wife.
Unexpectedly, before she could speak, Yu's teacup went straight to Aunt Bai's head, which frightened Aunt Bai and screamed.
Yu's eldest girl, Qinghe, scolded Aunt Bai: "Kneel! ”
Xie Wenyu frowned and stepped forward: "Mother, what are you?" ”
Another teacup fell, and Xie Wenyu also knelt on the ground, thinking to himself: It must be the third brother who came back and said something.
"A bunch of shallow-eyed things," Yu scolded hatefully.
When the big girl Qinghe explained what happened, the courtyard was surprisingly quiet.
The housekeepers and mothers-in-law all held their breath, bowed their heads and complained in their hearts:
Second Miss Xie Wenhui, this is how mean the in-laws are, and the father-in-law will do the thing of greedy ink relief food for ten taels and twenty taels of silver.
Even in their homes, there is no such shameful thing.
Not worth it, right? It's not worth convicting or even losing your head for that bit of silver, isn't this a brain disease? What a difficult situation this has to be at home.
Aunt Bai is also miserable, she is not as tender as Aunt Fang when she is older, she is relying on giving birth to her eldest son Xie Wenyu, and she has a face that has only been obtained by Hou Ye for so many years.
In the future, you have to be careful to dodge, it is estimated that Hou Ye will be embarrassed, it is really a big shame.
"Wen Hui?" Aunt Bai's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Even my mother thought it was tinnitus when she heard it, but you can imagine how absurd this thing must be.
Xie Wenhui's face turned red, crying and shaking her head: "Auntie, I don't know," and hurriedly looked at Yu's family, and hurriedly crawled forward: "Mother, my daughter doesn't know, my daughter really doesn't know." ”
Ren Zisheng's family.
Xie Wenhui kept stirring the handkerchief in her hand, and her lips were bitten with hatred.
gritted his teeth for a while and hated Yu's family, hating her for marrying into such a family, and she would never be able to get on the stage and marry such a family.
After gritting her teeth for a while, she hated her father-in-law Ren Lizheng, and Yu scolded her for her original words, and she scolded Ren Lizheng in her heart: a shallow thing.
"Madam, aren't you going back to visit your aunt today, why are you in a hurry to come home, why are you calling me?"
With a click, Xie Wenhui threw the teacup at Ren Ziwei's feet: "I can't afford to lose anyone with your Ren family." You ask me? You should go back to your Renjia Village and ask your stupid daddy! ”
Ren Ziwei pulled down his face.
There are so many maids and women here, and they dare to point at his nose and scold his father.
Xie Wenhui is afraid of him, who are you, who am I, I am the daughter of the dignified marquis.
Raising his neck, he continued to scold:
"Your father is greedy for ten taels and twenty taels of silver, and he is so stupid that he is boundless.
Didn't I give him filial piety? Isn't it enough for him?
You Ren family are just a bunch of things that don't have a brain.
Let me tell you, Ren Zixuan, you don't have to look at me like this, and you don't think it's ten or twenty taels or not.
No, it's because of ten taels and twenty taels that you have to take it seriously.
Don't blame me for not reminding you, once this matter is lifted, not only will I have no face to go home, not only my brother will bow his head and be a man, and not only my aunt will have to settle down in the morning and dusk.
Just you, just because you have such a stupid father, you will make your colleagues laugh off their big teeth first, and you will be pointed at wherever you go. ”
After Ren Ziwei heard what had happened, his face was completely flustered.
How can there be a matter of the Guogong Mansion here? The Lu family, does the Lu family care about such a small matter?
How could that group of homeless people who had just settled in Renjia Village still be able to talk to the Lu family? How could it be.
And, about relief food, Ren Ziwei really doesn't know.
Although he knew that since his father became Lizheng, the people in the village could not praise his father because of the supply and because of the relationship between raising pigs and chickens and selling them at a good price. But he didn't expect his father to stay in that small place to such an ignorant extent.
Ren Ziwei immediately called someone to set the car, and he had to rush to Renjia Village. Ask his father what's going on, and he has to hurry up to see the gang, touch the bottom of the gang, and at the same time, suppress the matter.
When Ren Ziwei's entourage heard this, their faces were full of hesitation.
In the end, the more I listened to it, the more terrifying it became, not only the Hou Mansion was convinced, but the Guogong Mansion actually participated.
Who is the Guogong Mansion, there is nothing in Manfeng Heavenly City that I don't know.
The Guogong Mansion came forward to take care of the matter, not to mention the Hou Mansion and their small Ren Mansion, even the county king couldn't stop it.
The entourage was stubborn and told Ren Ziqi and Xie Wenhui that when the other courtyard was sending some vegetables today, the steward mentioned it, saying that the old lady Ren Li was living in the other courtyard last night and pulled a few carts of grain.
After hearing this, Xie Wenhui gasped and almost fainted.
dared to pull it to her family's courtyard.
In this case, can't she be able to tell if she has a mouth?
Holding on to a breath, Xie Wenhui ordered in a sharp voice: Go, go quickly, and gather food from your own house first. How many carts were transported? Don't have a few big carts, first transport ten carts of grain, and send them to Renjia Village as soon as possible.
