Shen Ai's eyes widened in surprise, I'm afraid that the capital of 100,000 people can't accommodate so many refugees, if this is not handled properly, it will cause a riot at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and I am afraid that there are more than these 100,000 refugees, and there are many people in the future capital.

Being carried by Shen Erye and sitting back in the shed again, Shen Ai frowned, no matter how he said that his chrysanthemum wine and Jiang Yu were divided, there must be ten thousand taels of silver, and how to say that it can also make thousands of people wear cotton clothes to resist the cold wind, although it hurts a little, but it is extremely uncomfortable to see the refugees wearing single clothes one by one.

Thinking of the method of raising donations wherever there was difficulty in his previous life, Shen Ai had a flash of inspiration.

After eating porridge and returning home, Shen Ai looked for his grandfather Shen Guogong everywhere, and when Shen Guogong came back, he saw that his good granddaughter was already sitting in the study waiting for him.

Seeing Shen Guogong coming in at the door, Shen Ai hurriedly rushed over happily: "Grandfather, Ai'er has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Shen Guogong touched his head and picked her up, and said, "Why are you so anxious to find your grandfather?" When he entered the door, the porter told him that the girl had a cup of tea, and sent someone to ask the porter if he had come back, so he came directly to the study without changing his clothes.

"It's a big deal." Shen Ai said

Shen Guogong smiled and hugged her and sat down: "What kind of big thing?" ”

Shen Ai told him about his idea of fundraising, and Shen Guogong said with a rare straight face: "This idea is really good, the money raised can be used to make cotton clothes against the cold and buy rice porridge, but if this is the case, we are afraid that our Shen Mansion will offend many people." "How can those officials donate the money in their pockets to the refugees so generously.

"Grandfather, we can't do this." Shen Ai pointed to the roof mysteriously and said, "The saint has to come up and do it, so that those ministers have no reason to refuse, and the saint can have a good reputation for caring for the people, and the refugees also have clothes and food, and they are all happy!" ”

Shen Guogong's eyes lit up, and Shen Ai continued: "Also, Ai'er went to the porridge shed today and saw that there were many people who were able-bodied and capable of working. ”

Shen Guogong nodded in agreement, and then asked, "This idea was thought up by Ai'er herself?" ”

Shen Ai proudly raised his little chin and patted his chest: "Of course." ”

Shen Guogong touched her head with a smile, put her down and said, "Grandfather is going to the palace and will come back to bring you the crispy chicken from Wanyun Tower." ”

Shen Aile jumped twice: "Thank you, grandfather." ”

sent Shen Guogong out of the gate before holding the small hand warmer and happily returning to the courtyard.

It wasn't until Shen Ai fell asleep that Shen Guogong came back from the palace, Uncle Shen and Second Master Shen waited for him in the house, and waited for Shen Guogong to change his clothes before asking, "Daddy is okay today?" ”

When they came back so late, everyone was worried that something important would happen.

Shen Guogong waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just a matter of refugees outside the city." ”

Seeing that his face was relaxed and carefree, the two of them were relieved, and Second Master Shen asked, "Is there a solution for the Holy One?" If we wait for the second batch of refugees to arrive..."

Shen Guogong touched his beard with a smile and said, "Thanks to Ai'er's proposal, the livelihood of the refugees outside the city has been settled. ”

The two brothers were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, turned to Shen Guogong and said in unison: "Ai'er? ”

Shen Guogong smiled and said, "Yes." ”

As he spoke, he said Ai'er's proposal today, and when he saw that his two sons were shocked, he said in a deep voice: "Ai'er has a quick mind, but she is only eight years old, and our Shen Guo Mansion does not need to be on the upper floor, so you can't talk about this matter with others." ”

Uncle Shen and Second Master Shen hurriedly nodded, if Ai'er was a boy, if this matter spread, I am afraid that many people will stare at them Shen Mansion.

The next day, when I had breakfast, I heard Mu and Shen Erye chatting about the refugees, and heard that the Holy Lord had issued a few decrees this morning, and with a wave of his hand, he was the first to donate 80,000 taels from the private treasury to the refugees, and the courtiers also followed suit and donated silver one by one, and I heard that the most money-poor officials donated all their belongings of 3,000 taels, but the emperor later rewarded him, and he didn't have to think about it to know that this official was a good person, and he really didn't lose money but made a lot of money.

Shen Ai went to Jiang Guogong's mansion after lunch and still couldn't see Jiang Yuren, so he simply didn't look for it, before he sent 20,000 taels of silver in Mu's place, Shen Ai told Mu his thoughts, wanted to make cotton clothes for the children in the refugees, Mu readily agreed, and took out 10,000 taels from his dowry, and asked people to go to the refugee shed to find more than 20 women with good embroidery to make clothes.

In a hurry, five thousand pieces were finally made when the second heavy snow fell, and Shen Ai immediately asked the Mu family to send someone to transport the clothes to the refugee shed, and he also begged the Mu family and Shen Er Ye to go and see it in person.

Mu had no choice but to agree to let Shen Erye follow and send seven or eight more guards, in fact, Shen Ai didn't want to go out on such a cold day, but this day was getting colder and colder, and the cotton clothes were all issued to children, she was afraid that there were only slaves and no one to suppress those adults who were crazy and frozen, she was afraid that she would rob them, originally she wanted to find Jiang Yu and let the five princes go, but these two people had been every figure for many days, so they had to go in person, although she was small, she was also a county lord.

The refugee shed is really just a simple shed, which can only block some wind and snow slightly, and the people inside are sitting next to each other and curling up, coughing can be seen everywhere, Shen Ai sat in the carriage and frowned, not only is food, clothing and housing a problem here, medicine is also a big problem, I am afraid that there will be a plague for such a long time.

Shen Erye's brows were also furrowed, and he asked the servants to gather all the children according to Shen Ai's instructions, and he asked the coachman to turn around and return to the city gate, only to hold Shen Ai on the edge of the car and look at the thin and thin children with cotton clothes.

Seeing that the cotton clothes were almost finished, Shen Erye touched Shen Ai's cheeks and wanted to carry her into the car, but when he turned around, there was a commotion behind him, Shen Ai looked from Shen Erye's probe and saw a very thin child in a new cotton coat kneeling in front of the guard and kowtowing.

Shen Ai hurriedly said loudly: "Daddy, wait, there is a child." ”

Second Master Shen stopped and turned around to see the child, so he called the guards and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The guard's face was embarrassed, and he said: "Back to the second master, this kid just came over and knelt down and kowtowed vigorously to ask the county lord to save his brother." ”

"Save his brother?" Shen Ai looked at the boy who was still kowtowing and didn't know the pain, frowned, turned his head and said to Shen Erye, "Daddy, let's go take a look." ”

Second Master Shen would never refuse his baby daughter, so he asked the guards to pull up the child and let him lead the way.

Seeing that the noble man was really willing to save his brother, the little boy cried happily and led them around the refugee shed to a big tree, and under the tree lay a very thin young man who looked like he was more than ten years old, and was in a coma at the moment.

"Why don't you go to the refugee shelter?" Second Master Shen frowned and asked the little boy, although the refugee shed is simple, it is better than the big trees around it.

The little boy wiped the tears from his face and said, "We used to be in a refugee shed, but since my brother was sick, they kicked us out, saying that my brother was infected with the plague. ”

After hearing this, Shen Erye's face turned straight, and he hugged Shen Ai and sent someone to the city to invite a doctor.

After a while, the doctor came, checked his pulse, and said: "It's not a plague, it's just typhoid fever, but it's too serious to be unconscious. ”

The little boy knelt on the ground and cried and kowtowed to the doctor: "Please save my brother, please, please." ”

The old doctor's face was embarrassed, he was just a doctor who went to the clinic, and if he saved a patient without any medical advice, he would let him roll up and leave.

Shen Ai tugged at Shen Erye's sleeve, and then listened to him: "Carry people back to the medical hall, I will get the money out, and save people first." ”

Seeing that his brother was saved, the little boy kowtowed to them again, Shen Ai saw that his forehead was already swollen, and he couldn't bear to say: "Don't kowtow, if there is anything, go to Shen Guogong's Mansion to find me, and report to the county lord of Anping." ”

As he spoke, he ripped off the purse from Shen Erye's waist, and originally wanted to hand it to the little boy with the purse, but when he saw the reluctance in Shen Erye's eyes, he remembered that this was the purse embroidered by his mother for his father, so he reached out and took out the silver from it, and said, "Take these silver first, buy some clothes and buns, don't be cheated away." ”

The little boy took the silver and kowtowed to him in thanks.

Shen Erye asked the two guards to find a wooden board to carry the young man and the old doctor on the ground into the city, and then asked his entourage to follow the little boy to the medical hall.

The clothes were almost gone, and it was too cold, and Second Master Shen was afraid that Shen Ai's body would not be able to stand it, so he rarely pulled her into the carriage and went home.

The next day, the county lord of Anping issued cotton clothes to the children of the disaster victims, and was presented to the emperor by a speech official.

After hearing this, the old emperor praised him fiercely in front of the courtiers, and even took Shen Guogong and Uncle Shen to praise him for a few words of teaching, and was praised by the emperor as a great joy.

Originally, Shen Ai just wanted to do what he could for the victims, but he didn't expect the old emperor to praise the ladies of various mansions to follow suit, which made the lives of the victims better.

Jiang Yu, who disappeared for nearly a month, finally reappeared, this day Shen Ai took someone out to buy a Zhu Hai to give to Zhang's birthday gift, Zhang's birthday was seven or eight days apart, because the bracelet Mu bought in Qige was very fond of it, and with it, Shen Ai wanted to go there to Taotao.

And Mu took the silver and went out, this time she brought the last few guards and added four, this is Mu's decision, there is no way to have an accident, as soon as she goes out, she even has to ask Zhang's to ask again, not to mention Mu's, but this feeling of being cared for by the family is very good, although the team is huge and eye-catching.

In the carriage, Shen Ai was wearing a thick jacket and holding the hand warmer, and when she opened the curtain, she saw that the victims could be seen everywhere on the street, sitting in a row in the cold wind, waiting for the employer, and some of the half-grown children were also sitting there with their shoulders bent, looking at her, the carriage passed by, and they all looked up, and they looked really pitiful.

Shen Ai put down the curtain and sighed slightly in her heart, she couldn't help much if she was small, if Jiang Yu could find Zhuangzi to make wine, she could hire some refugees.
