Chapter 82: Porridge

Chapter 82: Porridge

Qi Changguan still left, sent Mu Yanzhao to Yazhou, and turned around. //..

Mu Yanzhao is Qi Changguan's only friend, but they are not people of the same world, Qi Changguan can never understand what Mu Yanzhao thinks, and Mu Yanzhao is not willing to force his friends to give up their lives and get involved in this inescapable cause like him.

However, Mu Yanzhao didn't have time to feel too much, he had too many things to do. First of all, the first thing is to form an alliance with the Xiao family, and also deal with Chen Hao's affairs.

When the first rain of summer came, Mu Yanzhao received a letter from Xiao Jialang, in addition to the matter of the two family covenants, he also had one more sentence, saying that Liulang and Qiniang had been found, but Qiniang swore to death and refused to return to Dayong, helplessly, Xiao Dalang thought, she broke into too much trouble, although it should not be spread, but there is no wall in the world, this little girl honestly avoided the limelight, so don't go to Dayong to be embarrassed, so let Liulang accompany her to live in the courtyard of Yazhou temporarily, if possible, I also hope that Qi Niang can worship Chen Wenrou and Lord Chen as a teacher, so that Lord Chen can sharpen her frizzy temperament.

In Xiao Dalang's letter, between the lines, a little bit of annoyance was revealed, and it was obviously quite a headache for this unconscious sister, but after all, there are only a few people in the world who can do righteous annihilation, at least, the indecisive temperament of the ancestors of the Xiao family, Xiao Dalang has not inherited less.

Mu Yanzhao didn't care much about these, he didn't take Xiao Qiniang to heart at all.

Summer is coming, Yazhou is already rainy, and this year is even more strange. It has been raining heavily for many days, Yazhou is fine, the Mu family has been dispatched up and down, increase vigilance, there should be preventive measures, flood control has been done well, and there is not much chaos.

Outside, there is a lot of mourning.

The Yellow River is flooded. It is reported that six prefectures and counties have been completely destroyed, and more than 100,000 people have died, and the rest of the places are unknown. However, the number of victims who poured into Yazhou alone is too many to count. The Futian Courtyard placed by the imperial court was crowded with convenient places, and even the streets and alleys were crowded with people.

Although three consecutive stamps were sent to the capital, hoping that the imperial court would allocate relief food as soon as possible, the imperial court was also empty of the treasury, even if there was no major war in recent years. Even if he has a little spare strength, Mizusawa can barely allocate some food, but he is stripped up and down, and it is estimated that he will not be able to send a little bit of it to the victims......

Although it was daylight, the clouds were thick. Forrest Gump's study was lit, and it was barely bright.

Gu Wan looked up at the rain curtain outside the window, frowning slightly, vaguely as if she could hear people's howls, Bao Sheng and Bao Qin wiped the table table for a while, and Aunt Qian entered the house with a blue stalk porridge. His face was also pale.

"Aunt Qian, let Sanniang come over and bring the account books."

Gu Wan groaned slightly, spread out the pen and paper, swayed it, and wrote a letter, asking Wang Da to send it to the Mu family and to the seventh son. As soon as the letter was written, Lu Sanniang came over with the account book.

Now that the war is in chaos, Gu Wan is a hungry person, from the very beginning, she has paid great attention to the accumulation of grain, and she has not stored grain at home earlier, and other families in Guojiatun have grain depots and cellars in every household, even if there is a famine, within a year or two, they will not worry about eating and drinking.

Gu Wan thought about it, and simply sealed a batch in the cellar to ensure that the family could survive half a year's rations, so she collected the other old grains and new grains in her own grain warehouse, and communicated with several big grain merchants in Yazhou City through the Mu family, bought a batch of grain at a low price, and opened a porridge shed at the door of her home.

Aunt Qian, Lu Sanniang all said that Gu Wan was kind-hearted, Gu Wan just smiled, "Although it is a drop in the bucket, you can do as much as you can, just ask for peace of mind." In fact, Gu Wan was of course kind, but she was even more afraid that the victims would not eat for a long time, and if they were hungry, they would give birth to disasters.

At that time, Gu Wan was just a woman in a deep house, except for being frightened, for fear that her family would suffer, she could not do anything, but she could live a lifetime, she could be independent, so she wanted to do as much as possible, so that everyone could spend the disaster year peacefully.

said that it was porridge, and there was no need for Gu Wan to do manual work, Wang Da, Wang Er, and the guards at home did all the work of carrying grain, Gu Wan followed Aunt Qian, Lu Sanniang, and a few cooks in the family at most, helping to set up a few large pots in the yard and began to cook porridge, Baosheng, Baoqin, and Mo'er, and took the little girls to be responsible for putting spoonfuls of hot porridge into the bowls of the victims.

At the beginning, there were not many people gathered, but later, when I heard that Gujiashe porridge was coming more and more, the villagers in Guojiatun heard that many mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who had spare time also came to help.

Guo Yuzhu also called the shots and contributed some surplus food at home.

Indeed, as Gu Wan said, the Gu family's little food is a drop in the bucket, and on the fifth day, the food is about to bottom out, and this is still Gu Wan taking advantage of the chaos to secretly buy food from the store to supplement it, so that she can persist until now.

When Steward Wu commanded the grain to be transported out of the grain depot, he was still a little puzzled, thinking that his own grain depot should not be big, but in fact it was enough to hold grain, two days ago he thought that the grain was going to bottom out, but he insisted on it for two more days, and there was still a lot of it left.

When Gu Wan built her own warehouse, in addition to one on the surface and one in the village, she also built a lot underground. All the grain depots, silver depots, and basements are very complicated to build, with many door openings, rugged routes, and a lot of secret doors are designed.

The subordinates in the family thought that the owner was worried about the disaster of war and built a hiding place, and they didn't think it was strange, but they didn't know that Gu Wan wanted the warehouse at home to be a little more complicated, and when she needed to do something, it would not be too conspicuous.

Another day, Aunt Qian had just come back from the porridge shed outside, and said with a sad face: "Little lady, the surplus grain in our hands can last for half a day at most, you see?" ”

Gu Wan frowned: "Don't worry, I entrusted Sun Dart, as well as Master Lu and Master Huā to buy grain, calculate the time, and I can almost come back." "She can't conjure up food directly, and she doesn't want to be treated as a monster or a god or something" However, as long as the food team from other places arrives, even if the food bought is not enough, she can also make up for it.

Aunt Qian breathed a sigh of relief, but she still couldn't help but advise: "You can pay attention, let's do our best, so that we have a clear conscience, don't hurt your muscles and bones." ”

Gu Wan smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I know it in my heart." ”

The two were talking, Bao Sheng hurriedly entered the door and said urgently: "Little lady, there is a guest, it is said that Xiao Yiru of the Xiao family is here, and he has come to visit the little lady." ”

Gu Wan was stunned, "Xiao Yiru? ”

"Yes, little lady, that girl came by car, just now because there were too many victims, her carriage and horses could not pass, and she drew a whip and made a big fuss outside, Steward Wu was worried that something would happen, so she let the slave maid lead people into the door."

Baosheng is also angry, and now everyone is in a hurry for the porridge thing, and they haven't slept well for several days.

Gu Wan shook her head, I heard that Xiao Yiru was locked up in another courtyard and was not allowed to go out, how could she ...... In the past few days, the Xiao family has also united with the big families in Yazhou to set up porridge sheds in various places, which is very busy, so they can't take care of Xiao Yiru and let her out.

Having said that, people still have to see each other, Gu Wan hurriedly changed ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
