With Xu Huaiqing's silence, Bai Jiujiu became more and more uneasy, "If you think it can't be done, then ......"

"This matter is related to the interests of the whole family, I can't call the shots alone, but I will help you convince your father and mother."

Bai Jiujiu originally thought that his idea would definitely be rejected by Xu Huaiqing, but he didn't expect him to agree, and his gradually dim eyes suddenly flashed a glimmer of light, "Really?" Great, we're going to go to Daddy now. ”

Thinking of the homeless people who couldn't live anymore, Bai Jiujiu was so anxious that he couldn't wait for Old Man Xu and the Wang family to nod immediately. In a hurry, he didn't take into account the hands he and Xu Huaiqing were shaking hands.

Staring at the hands of the two with interlocked fingers with a gloomy expression, Xu Huaiqing shook his head dotingly.

"What?! Do you want to give food to the homeless? I disagree! ”

Bai Jiujiu just mentioned his thoughts, but before Old Man Xu and the Wang family could speak, the Li family was the first to shout.

"Sister-in-law, I know that food is expensive now, but those people outside can't live anymore, the Buddha said: Saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. Can you bear to watch those people starve to death outside? ”

"That won't give us our food! So many homeless people, what did we give them to eat?! ”

"That's it!" Old Man Xu snorted and knocked the pipe on the table, "What does it look like to be noisy!" Old family, you don't say a word, no one treats you as a dumb person! ”

"Daddy!"

"I think what Jiu Jiu said makes sense, our family's surplus grain is stored enough, plus the operation of the embroidery workshop, a lot of silver has also been saved, although it can't save all the victims, but it can save one by one." Wang interjected, she had believed in Buddhism for many years, and she was naturally a little moved when she heard Bai Jiujiu's words.

"Okay, I agree to this matter, but Jiujiu, before you help the victims, you have to set aside some food for your own daily chewing. In addition, let Huaiqing follow you to give alms, so as to prevent any accidents. ”

After Old Man Xu pondered for a moment, he agreed. He thought about it a lot, now that the people in Xujia Village know that his family is rich, so many pairs of eyes are staring, it is inevitable that there will be people with bad intentions, but if they take the initiative to stand up, it will be different.

First of all, it is tenable in the general righteousness, and those who covet his family will not keep staring at his family after seeing them take out all the food to help the victims, after all, everyone knows that their Xu family has no food, and the food is taken to the disaster relief people.

Under Old Man Xu's decision, even if the Li family was unwilling, he could only nod in agreement, but he looked at Bai Jiujiu's busy moving food with unkind eyes.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Bai Jiujiu was naturally overjoyed, and she didn't care about the way Li looked at her, anyway, if she looked at her more, she wouldn't lose a piece of meat.

The Xu family's porridge shed was quickly erected. At first, some people were curious about what they were messing with, until they saw Bai Jiujiu take out the cooked porridge, and then they rushed forward.

"Don't crowd, don't crowd, everyone queue up, everyone has a share."

The same words came out of Bai Jiujiu's mouth, but they were much gentler than the officers and soldiers, plus the porridge they served was very real, and there was more rice and less soup. For a while, the homeless people crowded in front of their porridge shacks, but the serious official porridge shacks were empty and crowded.

Xu Huaiqing looked at Bai Jiujiu's busy figure, his eyes were full of doting.

Here's a good soup kitchen, and it's peaceful. On the other side, it's not so harmonious. The people of the Bai family knew that Bai Jiujiu was actually willing to take out food to save people, and sat in the hall with a solemn face.

"This concubine is now more and more capable, and she actually knows how to win people's hearts, in the long run, I am afraid that our Bai family's status in Xujia Village will be shaken."

Lord Bai looked at the panicked Mrs. Bai in the next seat, and said with a calm face.

The Bai family has always been one of the largest households in the village, and even when the prefect sees them, he has to avoid three points. But now that Bai Jiujiu is giving porridge, they have no action. With so many pairs of eyes watching, it is inevitable that some people will feel that the Bai family is small and look down on them. Although they can't see it now, if there is any big thing in the future, it will be difficult for them to say the same.

Madame Bai obviously thought of this as well, and her face was a little ugly. She is in charge of this family, only she knows that her family has already been unable to make ends meet, if she opens a warehouse to release grain, it will not be long before the whole family will have to drink the northwest wind.

"Father, for the sake of today, only if we also open a warehouse and release grain, can we restore the status of our Bai family." White. Meng Ting had long seen that Bai Jiujiu was not pleasing to the eye, and the previous Ten Thousand Birds Chaofeng Diagram had not been found, but fortunately, there was a sudden natural disaster, and the queen mother had no intention of making a big birthday, which made her not show her stuffing.

Now people outside say that Bai Jiujiu is the reincarnation of a living Bodhisattva, and her prestige even exceeds that of her, the daughter of the Bai family, although she secretly hates it, there is nothing she can do.

Seeing that Lord Bai put forward the idea of opening a warehouse and releasing grain, she naturally raised her hands and feet in favor, and it was best for her to come forward to give alms and overshadow Bai Jiujiu's limelight.

Seeing that her husband and daughter were determined to compete with the Xu family, Mrs. Bai couldn't say anything, so she had to order her subordinates to build a porridge shed, but her eyes still revealed her anxiety about the reduction of food.

She didn't blame her husband and children, so she counted the account on Bai Jiujiu's head. If it weren't for the moth that this mourning star made to open a warehouse and put grain, their family would not have been forced into such a situation.

Bai Jiujiu was unaware of all this, and saw that the Bai family had also set up a porridge shed, but he just looked at it a few more times in confusion, and focused on serving porridge to the victims. There are so many victims, Rao is that she took out most of the surplus food of the Xu family, which is just a drop in the bucket, and it is also a good thing to have the Bai family to share it.

The Bai family seems to be in a relationship with Bai Jiujiu, as long as Bai Jiujiu is outside, he can see Bai on the other side. Meng Ting's defiant gaze.

As the days passed, the surplus food of the two families was almost empty. Helping the victims in this way, Bai Jiujiu was also a little unbearable. In order to continue to buy food, she sold all the embroideries in the embroidery workshop at a discount, and even embroidered several pairs of large pieces overnight, and all the silver sold was exchanged for silver.

In only half a month, Bai Jiujiu was visibly emaciated, and all the meat raised before was returned. Xu Huaiqing saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. He also knew that it was not a way to go on like this, there were so many victims, and if he wanted to completely relieve them, he still had to draw his salary.
