Chapter 157: The mud can't hold up the wall
She and Bo Zhaoxu are not in a hurry to go back to the house to do anything, and it is not a bad thing to be able to avoid the hustle and bustle in the imperial city, but the problem is that the people can't stand the impact of this heavy rain, and in about a month, the crops will be harvested, but after ten days of heavy rain, the houses collapsed and the farmland was destroyed, which was destined to be a very peaceful disaster year.
This matter has attracted a lot of attention from the emperor, and if this matter is handed over to Bo Chengkan to deal with, it will be a great achievement, but at this time, Bo Chengkan will be released, and he will be difficult to disagree.
But how can this kind of thing be ignored?
So as soon as the sky cleared, Xiang Yeqi saw that the pitiful Bo Zhaoxu in his eyes was summoned into the palace by this adoptive father's father to clean up this headache mess.
Xiang Yeqi originally wanted to go back to the Four Princes' Mansion a little later to see the disaster around the Four Princes' Mansion, but after thinking about it, Bo Zhaoxu took a step first, Xiang Feng should always let down his guard and tell himself a little bit about what he knew, right?
Xiang Feng was carrying a bucket of water to the kitchen, he had never been the master, and he did everything he could do himself. It wasn't until Xiang Yeqi beckoned to him with a different face that Xiang Feng put down the bucket and asked, "The fourth prince has already left?" β
"Just left."
"Laughing so happily, what happy thing do you want to tell your uncle? Or are you in a hurry to go back? "Waiting for the wind to the night is indeed very friendly.
"I'm not in a hurry to go back, but there is something that has been bothering me for ten days...... Uncle, you seem to know something related to my mother, but you haven't said it? Could it be because this matter has something to do with the four princes? β
Xiang Feng's face suddenly became ugly, and he was a little displeased: "Why are you asking this?" How can your mother's death have anything to do with the Fourth Highness? β
Thinking about it, the year when the original owner's mother died, Bo Zhaoxu was probably not old enough to remember, no matter what, it didn't look like it had anything to do with it.
"Are you, afraid he'll know?"
Her curiosity about the matter was surprisingly high.
"It's not something unsightly, you can ask any person, you can find out, it's just that you were young at the time and don't remember it. At the beginning, your mother somehow angered the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother ......" lowered her voice to the wind, "Then which is a reasonable person, a light of poison, just gave it like this." β
Speaking of these, the corners of Xiang Feng's eyes were still shining with tears: "This matter, you can tell anyone, you can tell you, tell the prince alone, it's just that there is really such a thing." But if you say it in front of the two of you, isn't that a deliberate attempt to provoke the relationship between the two of you? β
In this way, it is very reasonable.
But what is such a thing, Xiang Yeqi has to ask others to see if he can find out anything from it.
"What are you doing here?"
Xiang Yeqi asked casually.
"This year, during the rain disaster, many farmers are not harvested, your aunt and uncle are kind-hearted, bought some rice and grain out of their own pockets, and are ready to give some porridge to the people in the city, I will go out to talk about business in a while, there is no way to accompany her, so I have to give her a hand, let her be a little easier."
Xiang Feng seemed to suddenly think of something, "If you're not in a hurry to go back, why don't you go out with your aunt?" With you by my side, I can rest assured, and besides, you can also pick and choose, which shop you like, and your uncle will find the title deed for you. β
If he didn't remind him, Xiang Yeqi would almost forget that he still had a shop that he hadn't gotten his hands on, so he agreed to Ye Yan along with this.
The boundary where Sun's porridge shed was set up, and next to it were several shops in Xiangfeng, and after Xiang Yeqi and Sun's soup kitchen, they could just go and carefully pick the shop that Xiangfeng used to repay her favor.
However, this is only a plan for the Night.
The process of soup soup was still very smooth, until a few angry ruffians appeared in front of her and Sun, first licked their teeth under the gaze of Xiang Yeqi, and then slowly spoke: "That's it, you are giving soup here?" Give me some too. β
Although this person looks at this as improper, but after all, in the name of soup kitchen, the Sun family can't make people hungry just because the other party doesn't look like a serious person.
Although Sun was disgusted in his heart, he didn't show it, he just lowered his head and put a spoonful of white porridge, looked left and right at the empty-handed ruffian, and said with concern: "Where is your bowl?" If not, I'll ...... here."
Before he finished speaking, the ruffian stretched out his hand and interrupted Sun's words: "Don't, don't! I brought it! β
Xiang Yeqi couldn't help but be a little curious, she looked at it for a long time, these people came empty-handed! Until the ruffians pulled out a bucket from behind them, the size of a bucket of swill, but very clean.
The ruffian smiled lightly: "Come, Sheng! It's a little full, and it's okay to have a bowl for one person, right? β
"Quansheng is for you, what do others eat?" Xiang Yeqi was not used to this person's fault, "You swill bucket, why don't you go to the pigsty and see if you can grab something." β
"The little girls are quite childish! Can you rely on me for this? Didn't you say what you said and didn't count, and said that you would have a bowl per person, but then regretted it? You really don't think you're the guy I eat! β
The ruffian snorted angrily, but he used flirtatious words to tease Xiang Yeqi, and really made Xiang Yeqi want to tear his mouth.
But this ruffian is as if he doesn't know how to lift, he pestle on the porridge stall with one hand, and deliberately makes some coughing movements, as if there is really such a mouthful of phlegm: "Anyway, you don't keep your promises, what I say and do, that's my business, when the time comes, everyone in the ten miles and eight streets will know that you are doing something shady under the banner of doing good deeds!" β
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Sun glared at him angrily, this pair of eyes is amazing, it is the narrow road of the enemy, these two people know each other.
"Damn, it's really you, Sister Ling'er! We haven't seen each other in a few days. As soon as the ruffian saw Sun's face, he couldn't close his mouth even more, "No wonder someone said that they saw you in the temple, I still don't believe it!" You say that you are praying to God and worshiping Buddha all day long, and you are doing these good deeds, why are you afraid that your unsightly things will be shaken out? Orβfear of retribution? β
"Don't you care about these people......"
Xiang Yeqi always has a little worry about Sun, after all, provoking this kind of ruffian is like stepping on a piece of dog skin plaster, even if it rubs on the ground for a long time, it may not be able to tear it off, it is simply a living toad lying on the surface of the foot, it may not bite people, but it must add blockage to people.
But she glanced at Sun, but found that Sun couldn't listen to her words at all.
Sun's face turned pale, and he immediately turned his face, not daring to look directly at the ruffian: "You recognize the wrong person, I don't know you at all!" β
Could it be that there is really something hidden?
The ruffian at the head laughed lightly, and suddenly heard the person next to him remind: "Brother, I heard from the people of the Fu family that if you help them bring people back, it seems that you can still get some reward." β
"Bounty? It's been so long, can you still count? β
The ruffian took a sip very disdainfully, his eyes turned in his narrow sockets, as if he was encouraged by money, and grabbed Sun's wrist: "Sister Ling, your father and mother received the money from the Fu family at the beginning, and you just ran away, isn't it a bit unruly?" β
From his mouth, Xiang Yeqi could vaguely hear what had happened, but no matter what, she couldn't watch this ruffian bully her family, right?
"In broad daylight, what are you doing here?"
Xiang Yeqi picked up the porridge spoon on the side and knocked it over, this porridge spoon had just been taken out of the pot, clean, but hot like a piece of charcoal, as soon as it hit him, the ruffian let out a sharp wail, like the scene of scalding the hair with boiling water before killing a pig.
I don't know if this spoon is really too hot, and it really brought a few hairs.
"You've got dirty hands." Xiang Yeqi crossed his waist with one hand and shook his head in disgust, I was afraid that this porridge spoon would become a one-time today.
"You, you're going to bully people!"
The ruffian was so angry that he squeezed out a few muddy tears, and looked at the big red brand left on his arm so much that he stomped his feet in anger, and collapsed the mud spots all over his body.
"Damn, two stinky girls who don't know what to do, I really think I am something......" He wiped his snot twice, simply broke the jar, and smashed his own wooden barrel into the porridge pot of the two, which was not angry enough, and even called a few younger brothers to lift the porridge shed together.
Xiang Yeqi subconsciously protected the Sun family behind him, looked at the Qingwa on the side and shouted: "Nan Chen! If you don't come out and do something, I'm going to be beaten!" β
Seeing Xiang Yeqi calling people, several ruffians also looked around, but naturally no one saw anyone except for the green tiles that were still dripping.
This only fueled their arrogance, and the leader strode forward very arrogantly, and before the porridge shed could be overturned, he was kicked to the ground first.
Nan Chen stepped on the back of the ruffian, and as if he was nothing, he hugged his fists and faced Xiang Yeqi: "You have instructed your subordinates not to act rashly, so as not to scare the people around you, so your subordinates ...... It's late. β
"It's okay, it's okay." Waving his hand to the night, he glanced at the porridge pot that had been stirred up, and sighed regretfully, "The rest of these porridges probably can't be giving, so I'll ask you to go one more time and send these people to the government." β
The ruffian who was trampled under Nan Chen's feet spat viciously, and like a loach rolling in a quagmire, he crawled a few steps on the ground and shouted: "I haven't committed any crimes, how can the people of the government bear me?" I don't have to send us out obediently, and when the time comes, I'll come to you! β
"You've really misidentified someone!" Sun's face turned cold in an instant, and he trembled and grabbed Xiang Yeqi's arm, "Yan'er, let's forget about this matter, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!" They recognized the wrong person......"
