Chapter 34
Every day she can receive letters from her father and Grandpa Cao in the valley, and she also has a certain understanding of the current situation, knowing that grain is requisitioned from all over the country to send to the frontier, so she asked Tong's mother to send the finished cotton clothes and a few carts of grain and rice to the military ships going to the frontier.
Cao Shu also donated a lot of money and rice, but the people here are generally not rich, and under Cao Shu's call, he only raised a few hundred deniers of grain and rice, and sent it to the frontier together.
A few days have passed, the three kingdoms of Xuanyuan have been vigorously armed, the whole army has been transferred, and the situation on the border has become more and more tense, and the red flames seem to be shrouded in a dark cloud, making it impossible for people to see hope.
Since the owner of the nunnery knew about Mu Bingyue, he would send someone to bring her fasting meals every day, and sometimes he would come to give her a lecture and recitation.
But today, for some reason, the person who came to deliver the meal was half an hour late, Mu Bingyue couldn't help but go out to look, and after a while, she saw the figure of the owner of the nunnery, and saw that the owner of the nunnery was followed by several teachers, and a group of children followed them to this side.
The owner of the nunnery was very uneasy when he saw Mu Bingyue coming out to greet them from afar, and led a group of people to speed up their pace and rush here.
Before the person arrived, the voice had already come, "Little donor, your body is thin, how can you stand for a long time under the poisonous sun, go into the house quickly." ”
Mu Bingyue also walked towards them, and when she got closer, she saw an incomprehensible melancholy hidden between the eyebrows of the owner of the nunnery, she looked at the dozen or so children who followed closely behind them, and said in her heart: "It's okay, the owner of the nunnery is in the house, please." ”
When the group entered the house, Mu Bingyue saw that the children were a little restrained, so she hurriedly took out the pastries for them, sure enough, it was a child's habit, and she became familiar with them after a while.
Mu Bingyue was already the same age as them, and most of the children were girls, and after a while, she became one with them.
Seeing that the children were letting go, Mu Bingyue said as if unintentionally: "Are you willing to accompany me here, I have everything delicious here, but there are only green vegetables and radishes to eat in the nunnery." ”
Mu Bingyue didn't expect that these children were not tempted by her food, and all of them silently leaned towards the owner of the nunnery, and did not answer her words, she looked at the owner of the nunnery who was more melancholy between her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I'm not a bad person, don't be afraid of me, what about me here, if you want to stay, you can stay as long as you want, if you want to be the owner of the nunnery, you can go back from time to time, I won't limit your own own!" Although she was about the same age as them, she still unconsciously treated them as children, and her little adult tone did not make anyone feel inappropriate, as if it was taken for granted.
After listening to Mu Bingyue's words, the owner of the nunnery got up solemnly and gave her a deep salute, and the other masters saw it and followed suit, Mu Bingyue hurriedly got up and helped her, "Is the master going to torture Yue'er?" ”
The owner of the nunnery said: "The little donor is pure and kind-hearted, and there will be blessings in the future, but it is the poor nun who drags down the donor." ”
"If it wasn't for the owner of the nunnery to take it in, Yue'er's life would have been gone for a long time, and my mother often misses it, and she always has no chance to repay the favor, and now she is just doing her part, the owner of the nunnery said so." Mu Bingyue hurriedly helped her up.
"The little donor's words are serious, if it weren't for the little donor's frequent help over the years, Xiao'an is afraid that it would have fallen long ago...... The nuns in the nunnery are all people whose families have suffered misfortune and have a pitiful background, so they chose to clear the lantern scrolls and live a miserable life. However, these ignorant children still have a long way to go, and the poor nuns do not want them to spend their lives in order to have a full meal and a place to live. I only hope that they will follow the little benefactor and be grateful in the future and do something for the country and the suffering people. ”
"Don't worry, Bingyue should do her best to take care of it." Mu Bingyue helped her back into the chair.
"May the heavens bless the heavens, let Chiyan avoid the scourge of this war, and don't let innocent people get involved in war again." The owner of the nunnery was still worried, and his eyebrows were not raised, "I wonder if the donor's family has any plans?" ”
Chiyan is in internal and external difficulties, stormy and stormy, the big war is unavoidable, after the autumn harvest, I am afraid that the three kingdoms will have action, coupled with the reserves of nearly three years, this war is even more unfavorable to Chiyan.
Mu Bingyue shook her head, "If the country is broken, it will be the same wherever you flee." ”
The owner of the nunnery sighed silently, and the solemn atmosphere also infected the surroundings, and the room fell silent for a while.
The youngest child in it was only four or five years old, and his wet eyes looked back and forth among the crowd from time to time, which reminded Mu Bingyue of her younger sister when she was a child.
At that time, Ling Nuo was also curious about everything in the world, she was always scarred by the invisible, and she loved small animals, which made her even more worried, every once in a while, she would go to annoy the dean, take her sister to the hospital, and get various preventive injections......
Mu Bingyue's heart jumped suddenly, and the precautionary ......
She asked tentatively, "Have these children ever ...... Cowpox? ”
The owner of the nunnery looked at Mu Bingyue suspiciously, "What beans to plant?" ”
After Mu Bingyue came here, she really didn't pay attention to it, and she asked again uncertainly: "It's to prevent smallpox...... Vaccine. ”
The owner of the nunnery was even more puzzled, "Smallpox prevention? ……”
"It's that when a person is vaccinated with cowpox, he will never be infected with smallpox again." Mu Bingyue thought about it and explained as briefly as possible.
The owner of the nunnery was surprised, "Is it really such a miracle?" ”
Mu Bingyue was categorical, "That's true." ”
The owner of the nunnery looked at Mu Bingyue, who was silent in thought, and thought about it for a while, and temporarily suppressed the doubts in his stomach.
How could she have forgotten? Knowledge changes fate, but science and technology can prosper the country, there are too many things to change the situation of people here, although everything requires a lot of manpower and material resources, but it may not be impossible!
It took about a cup of tea for Mu Bingyue to come out of her thoughts, and her flying smile made people feel relieved.
That kind of smile was something that no one had ever seen, and no one dared to disturb it, so they all sat quietly on the side.
Mu Bingyue's mouth suddenly opened, and countless thoughts quickly turned in his mind, if this matter is successful, no matter what the future holds, it will always be a merit, if it is used properly, it may make the people of Chiyan less trampled by some iron horses.
Even if they can't, they may be able to change three meals to eat.
At this time, Mu Bingyue couldn't help but secretly blame herself for not paying attention to the current affairs here, so that there was a lack of information now, and it seemed that she could only ask for help.
Mu Bingyue sent away the master of the nunnery and all the teachers without thinking, and then went to Feige to pass the book to Shen Xue and Lian'er, asking them to bring Shelangzhong and Cao Shu here.
Mu Bingyue searched for information in the library, and all the children quietly found a place to sit down and looked at her quietly.
Cao Shu and the four of them entered the house, and were immediately startled by a room of children, and the four of them looked around, only to find Mu Bingyue who was buried in the bookcase in the room, Shen Xue saw them come in for a long time, Mu Bingyue was still unaware of the book, and coughed busily.
Mu Bingyue woke up when she heard the cough, and when she looked up, she saw that the four of them didn't even have a polite word, so she sat down and ordered: "Shen Xue, you take the children home and ask my father to arrange for them to stay." ”
Shen Xue didn't ask again after hearing this, and asked the child to explain a few words to Li'er and left.
Although Cao Shu and Shelang had questions in the center, seeing that Mu Bingyue was obviously very busy, they tacitly didn't ask.
In the following time, Mu Bingyue did not give them a solution, and directly adopted a question-and-answer approach.
……
Li'er served tea on the side, standing silent, but her eyes were firmly fixed on Mu Bingyue, although it was not the first time she had seen Mu Bingyue's wisdom, she was still shocked by her. At this moment, her mood was like tea leaves in a cup, floating for a long time.
Mu Bingyue did not give a detailed answer to the many scruples and questions in Shelangzhong, and asked lightly: "Has Shelangzhong ever seen a cow commit smallpox?" If you don't believe it, you can verify it on me first. ”
Having said that, although Sherlang Zhong still underestimated it in his heart, he still chose to believe Mu Bingyue, "It's a matter of human life, I'm a little worried, but I'm willing to believe Miss Mu." ”
Cao Shu hesitated: "However, how can you make the imperial court believe it?" Even if you believe it, according to Chiyan's current situation, the imperial court is already too busy to take care of itself, and it is only afraid of ......"
Mu Bingyue got up slowly, "What if we can prompt Xuanyuan to negotiate with our country?" It's just that the situation is complicated now, and it's hard to predict how big the chips can be. ”
Cao Shu also got up, "No wonder you just asked me, which country is the most prevalent smallpox...... To say that Xuanyuan is strong and strong, the reason why he has not been able to dominate the world now has a lot to do with this wanton smallpox, but Xuanyuan has always been strong, and in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the national strength is getting stronger, and it is indeed a great temptation to control smallpox, but I am afraid that Xuanyuan is taking by force rather than compromising negotiations. ”
Cao Shu's words made Mu Bingyue's restless heart slowly fall silent. How could she forget that this was no longer the country she was familiar with where human life was paramount, there was no humanitarianism, there was only the winner as the king, and the loser as the villain.
Seeing that Mu Bingyue was silent, Cao Shu and the others glanced at each other worriedly, and said in Shelangzhong: "Miss Mu doesn't need to be discouraged, if you can prevent smallpox, I don't know how many lives can be saved, no matter what, it is a merit." ”
Mu Bingyue sat down slowly, nodded and said, "What Shelangzhong said is that these will be left to the imperial court to worry about!" But we always have to collect some benefits first, otherwise Yue'er will really struggle with the food and accommodation of this large group of people. ”
Cao Shu hesitated: "But we can't openly ask the court for rewards!" What's more, the imperial court can't even distribute the soldiers now, how can it come up with extra silver? ”
"In a hurry, the court can't get the money, but it can take out the official position! I don't know if Grandpa Cao knows, how can anyone have money and want to be a big official, but now that the situation in Chiyan is not good, I don't know if anyone will use money to buy officials? ”
Cao Shu slapped his hands vigorously, seeing that the two of them were startled, he hurriedly sat down and explained with a smile, "There is really a suitable one, Wang Cheng, the county magistrate, saw that there were more and more displaced people in the county, and Chiyan was about to fight, and he was as timid as a mouse, saying that he was sick and returned to his hometown early." The person who succeeded him was originally a big official! I heard that it was because of the framing of political enemies that he was demoted to this place and became this little sesame official. After taking office, the old man and he met him once, and in the conversation, he was looking for a way to regain his position, this person is also a rich man, and now it seems that he is the most suitable.
