This matter has spread ten or ten hundreds, and even ordinary people know about it, and Xu Linfeng has also done a lot of things in the imperial court and has attracted a lot of relationships. In the end, the emperor agreed to this matter and asked Xu Linfeng to do it as soon as possible, and it was necessary to solve the affairs of the victims.

With the emperor's decree, who would not dare to do this well.

Later, I heard that this matter was handled by Chen Youyi, and there was an endless stream of people who came to him.

Just as Chen Youyi was dealing with the matter here, Wang Da ran over, his face flustered, "Something happened to Qin Niangzi." ”

Seeing that his face was not quite right, Chen Youyi suppressed what he wanted to say, pushed away those people and things outside or ordered others to do it. After that, he took Wang Da to the back, and then asked, "What's going on so panicked." ”

"When I went to the rice store early this morning to buy rice, I found that the price of rice there had risen."

Chen Youyi sighed slightly, some people will think about spending money for the victims at this time, and some people really want to earn the money from the disaster.

She doesn't need to make people around the world be as kind as she is, after all, some people value business interests more seriously, "Even if the price goes up, we should be able to afford rice now." At this time, it is understandable to take the opportunity to raise the price and make more money. Take some more money and buy some rice. ”

She still has a lot of things to deal with, and when she turned her head and was leaving, she heard Wang Da say again, "Qin Niangzi is not as simple as you think, their price has risen for no reason, and it has directly doubled." Even if we have a lot of silver, it will be a bottomless pit to smash into it, not to mention that we have been buying rice for the past few days, and the silver in our hands has been nervous, and now they have risen like this, I am afraid that when our silver is spent, those ordinary people will not be able to eat. ”

As soon as she heard this, she suddenly stopped, and looked back at Wang Da in surprise, "Doubled?" Are you telling the truth? ”

"Of course it's true, the price has been posted on the side of the rice shop, and I have been reasoning with them for a long time, saying that this is the rice of the disaster victims, and I hope they can sell it to me at the original price for the sake of the victims. But they didn't listen and drove me out. Although you are ready to settle the victims, if you don't give them porridge these days, they will starve. ”

Chen Youyi wondered, "Which one is selling rice?" Now Lord Xu is anxious about the affairs of the victims, they don't take the initiative to just take these victims, and even add fuel to the fire, don't these people take Wang Fa in their eyes? ”

"Don't you know, the business of rice noodles is all done by the Liu family this time, he has someone in the court who is rampant and domineering here, and no one is afraid, even if Lord Xu comes forward, he is not afraid."

"The Liu family?" Chen Youyi pondered carefully, "Isn't that the Liu Shicong family that He Miaomiao married?" ”

"That's it."

She secretly screamed in her heart, she had some festivals with Liu Shicong and He Miaomiao before, if she talked to them at this time, I am afraid they would not listen to her.

"What should I do in a minute? Some of the young and middle-aged people have already found work, but the old and weak women and children have no strength and don't want anyone to ask for it, so they are waiting for us to give us soup porridge and eat. Wang Da stood aside and said anxiously.

There is no way, Chen Youyi can only go into battle in person, "In this way, you go to prepare the carriage and we will go to the Liu family." ”

"Qin Niangzi, if you want to go, I'm afraid this won't be good."

"I don't care so much, it's important to buy rice, you come with me and we'll improvise after that." Chen Youyi hurriedly ordered, there was really no other way, Wang Da ran out and prepared a carriage and took Chen Youyi to Liu Shicong's house.

He Miaomiao, who was drinking tea and eating snacks in the courtyard of her wealthy family, heard that Chen Youyi was coming to her heart, but the corners of her mouth immediately hooked up a light smile, "I guess it's for the sake of rice, I used to show off my might in front of me, and now I finally have something to ask me, let her come in, I want to see how she begs me." ”

The maid beside her hurriedly went out, and after a while, she walked in with Chen Youyi and Wang Da.

He Miaomiao sat in her seat and didn't get up, swallowing melon seeds and pretending not to see Chen Youyi, remembering that when she went to her house to look for her, she seemed to be like this.

When Chen Youyi came here, she knew that someone would definitely show her face, she had a conflict with He Miaomiao before, and she would definitely seize this opportunity to ridicule herself.

But for the sake of those ordinary people, she can't care so much.

"Miao Miao, I'm here to ask for something." Chen Youyi spoke directly.

He Miaomiao pretended to have just seen her, and stood up with a smile, "Yo, why are you here?" I heard that you have been busy with the treatment of the victims lately, why do you have so much time to come to me? Cui'er hurried to pour tea. ”

"No need." Chen Youyi said that the girl named Cui'er didn't move.

"You just said that you have something to ask me, is this serious, how can someone like you have something to ask me."

Chen Youyi took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile and said, "There is indeed something to ask for, your father-in-law's family is in the rice and noodle business." Now that there are a lot of people outside, you know that I need to buy rice and give them rice porridge, and now that the price of rice has doubled, it is too much pressure for us. ”

He Miaomiao interrupted her, "This kind of thing is all a man's business. I'm a woman who never cares about that. Since marrying into this family, I don't have to do anything except eat, drink and have fun all day. ”

She peeked at Chen Youyi from the corner of her eye, and saw that she was frowning, and her face was not very good-looking, and she was secretly happy in her heart.

"What my father-in-law doesn't like the most about me is meddling in his affairs, it's useless for you to beg me now, we women can't talk about the previous things, if you want to sit here and chat with me, it's okay to talk to me, I'm afraid I can't help you with other things."

Chen Youyi didn't want to give up easily, and now the only one who can speak is He Miaomiao, "This matter is related to the disaster victims outside, not to mention that the price of rice is already profitable, and suddenly it doubles like this, don't you want to know that these disaster victims will die?" Miao Miao, we are all people who have lived a hard life, we know what it is like to not have enough food and clothing, you can go outside and see how pitiful those victims are, and now the only person I can ask for is you, how about you help me say a few good words in front of your father-in-law? ”
