Chapter 402: Northern Scenery
Although Lin Huiru is mature and steady, for Baizhu, she is just a sixteen-year-old girl, regardless of her status and burden, she should also be a carefree girl. Even if it's not a daughter's daughter, it's a small jasper who is far from having to bear so much.
And coaxing this set with a good voice, for Lin Huiru, it is a hundred tests.
"Okay, okay, but it's just a few years older than me, you have to take care of your body during this time, and when I come back, you and Xiao Hei will have to be a little fatter." While speaking, Lin Huiru got into the carriage and stretched out his hand from the window and waved it twice.
"How's it going, cold or not?" Not far after he walked out, Xu Ziqiao helped Lin Huiru tighten the cloak on his body.
This made Lin Huiru really cry and laugh, "This is just out of the city, there is no difference at all, don't be too nervous." And we are in the carriage, which is also a thick layer, and it is windproof and warm, and there is a stove and a soup woman, and if you cover me too tightly on the carriage, maybe when I get out of the carriage, it will make me cold because of the big difference. ”
This is not false, Xu Ziqiao thought about it before agreeing that Lin Huiru took off his cloak, "You also know that you haven't left the capital yet, and the scenery outside here is nothing to look at, if you always open the curtains, it will let the cold wind outside penetrate in." ”
"You have to breathe some fresh air, and I have also seen, not to mention places outside the capital, even at the feet of the Son of Heaven, on the edge of the capital, there are beggars and people who are not well fed and clothed." Lin Huiru sighed, with a slight emotion in his heart. 、
"There are frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat, and the capital will start to give alms in the near future, so you don't have to worry too much." Xu Ziqiao also glanced outside through the gap, and only then was in the suburbs of Beijing, he could see a few children wearing rags and linen clothes, but a few thin clothes wrapped around their bodies to keep warm, adults may even wear thinner for the sake of children, and the hands were full of chilblains, blue and purple, which looked very terrifying.
"But you still can't rely on generosity alone, how difficult it is to want peace in the world." Lin Huiru sighed, and the emotion in his heart was more indescribable.
The further north, the more this scenery is unique in the whole world, just past a big town, you can see the snow on the mountain in front of you, this year's rain and snow are especially more, not to mention the capital, the snow in the affected place is not the same as money, although Rui Xue Zhaofeng every year, but also can not withstand this method.
The front is snow-white, the trees on the side of the road are also white, and there is a lot of snow hanging on them, which looks like it is covered in silver, which is amazing.
"Such a beautiful scenery is accompanied by such a tragic reality, if this kind of thing hadn't happened, it would really be a beautiful scenery." Taking a break on the way, Lin Huiru couldn't help grabbing another handful of snow and playing with it in his hand.
Xu Ziqiao also looked at the distance with his hands, it was indeed a beautiful scenery, "There is too much rain this year, and it is not a harvest year, if it is a harvest year, it must be a peaceful scene of the people." ”
"How many days are we left there, have the supplies arrived?" There weren't many people who were affected by the disaster along the way, but Lin Huiru was shocked enough, the dead were dead, the wounded, and the hungry children with skin and bones, and the clothes on their bodies could still see the flesh and skin.
"It's already here, they set off earlier than we did, and this meeting should have simply distributed some cotton clothes, and according to what you said, they also bought some clothes that people don't want, so it really reduces expenses." This can be regarded as the most reassuring point for him.
Lin Huiru also put her mind at ease, and after giving the roadside family a piece of broken silver, she sighed softly, "It's a pity that there is nothing to do in terms of food, even if it is me, the discounts I get are very few, but it is always more than expected, plus if they can arrange some work now, at least it is not too difficult to survive this winter." ”
"It's good to survive this year, most of the corrupt officials and corrupt officials have also been uprooted, I hope that Ruixue will have a good year, and next year will be better." Xu Ziqiao sighed, but who can say for sure about these things.
After another three days, their carriage arrived at Yiyuan, which was quite seriously affected, and when he first arrived here, Lin Huiru was very shocked in his heart, the scenery in front of him was beautiful, but the casualties brought were too cruel.
Along the way, Lin Huiru could not only see that the cabbage in the field that had been frozen was still being scrambled, but also that the children were hungry and had already squatted down to pick up snow cubes to eat.
As soon as he arrived at the local government, Lin Huiru couldn't help but ask, "Haven't the materials and money given by the imperial court already arrived?" Why are there still so many people who don't have enough food and clothing? According to the number of people you have handed in, each city is allocated enough to support it for a certain period of time. ”
The local government office is called Zhu Jian, and the whole person is round, short and fat, but the people in this place look miserable, just seeing Zhu Jian, Xu Ziqiao has a number in his heart.
"Hey, the Prime Minister and his wife don't know, after this count, some people from remote villages have also quickly taken refuge, there are more than 1,000 people, and it can't be changed at this time, but after the things come, it is difficult to distinguish whether they are locals or not, after all, they are all living lives, so in the original materials, they can only be cut a lot. This group of Diao people are hungry and crazy now, and they don't know how to thank the court and the city and countryside for taking things, there will be fights and fights almost every day, and our people can't always guard it, so ......" Zhu Jian's brain moved quickly, his face became fast, and he looked flattering, which made Xu Ziqiao and Lin Huiru lose their appetites.
Originally, Zhu Jian thought that his words were leaky, but Xu Ziqiao had already seen through his meaning.
It was freezing cold, and they did not buy everything they had, but used silver, which was also convenient for people to transport. But in this way, it is also facing some risks of being annexed, and most local officials Xu Ziqiao have also checked it, and people have been sent to watch the places where they can't rest assured, and Zhu Jian is also here.
He didn't expect that someone would have the audacity to swallow something under his nose.
Ever since this happened, the imperial court had kept people stationed to prevent riots, and he had never heard of such news of displaced people coming in. What's more, even if there are homeless people, in this situation of not having enough food and clothing, there is no way to get here in a few days.
What a Zhu Jian, it's really bold.
