Chapter 364 Helpless
After Li Qingling relieved himself, he slowly stood up and opened the door.
As soon as Liu Zhimo saw her, he looked her up and down, and nervously asked her if she was okay?
Li Qingling shook his head lightly and said, "It's okay." After a pause, "Ah Bai gave birth to a tiger cub, and I named it Diandian, a very beautiful little guy." ”
When a few children heard this, they ran up and told Li Qingling that they wanted to go in and have a look.
Li Qingling told them to come out after a glance and not to disturb Ah Bai's rest.
A few children nodded and said they knew, they wouldn't disturb Bai to rest.
Li Qingling snorted, turned sideways and let them in.
Liu Zhimo stretched out his hand to help Li Qingling, wanting to take her back to rest.
Li Qingling did not object, and nodded in response.
After all, she is a pregnant woman, and everything must be focused on her body, and she can't carry it hard.
Seeing that she didn't object, Liu Zhimo showed a little smile on his face, turned his head and said something to Mr. Luo, and then helped Li Qingling back to the room.
As soon as she woke up, Li Qingling got up refreshed, got dressed and opened the door, and saw Nian Xia sitting at the door napping, she called Nian Xia softly and asked her to go back to the room to rest.
Nian Xia opened her eyes in a daze, and when she saw Li Qingling, she woke up instantly, she stood up suddenly, scratched her head embarrassedly, and said that she was so sleepy that she didn't know when she fell asleep?
Li Qingling smiled and said, it's okay, let her go back to the room to rest, no need to hold on.
Li Qingling is very tolerant of Nian Xia and Xichun who are with her, and there are not so many rules.
Because of this, Nian Xia and Xichun were even more desperate for Li Qingling, more rigorous in their behavior, and tried not to embarrass Li Qingling.
They felt that they had finally met a master who was so good to them, and they couldn't live up to it.
Nian Xia shook her head and said no, she had slept enough.
After saying that, she covered her face embarrassedly, how could she fall asleep? What if something happens to Madame?
Not next time.
"Usually if you feel sleepy, just go back to your room and rest, it's okay when I'm asleep, don't hold on, you know?"
"Yes, ma'am." Nian Xia obediently agreed, as for whether to do it or not is her business.
If she didn't, Madame would continue to persuade her, and Madame couldn't worry about her.
"Is there anything in the house that I need to deal with while I'm sleeping?"
"Madam, Madame Hu came here, knowing that you were resting, and after putting down the gifts, she went back again."
Li Qingling hummed and asked Nian Xia to remember to call Mrs. Hu and them over for dinner.
Nian Xia should be down.
Li Qingling thought for a while, raised his feet and walked towards the big kitchen, wanting to see how the dishes prepared by the chef were being prepared?
As soon as she walked out of the yard, she met Xichun who was coming to her.
"Ma'am, are you awake?"
Li Qingling nodded with a smile and asked her what was the matter?
Xichun was a little embarrassed and said, I don't know what's going on, the people know that today is your birthday, Mrs., and they have sent a lot of gifts.
Stunned, Li Qingling blinked and asked Xichun, have you registered your name?
"Except for the registration of the four families of He Zhao and Wang Lin, the others were placed directly at the gate, without leaving their names or surnames, and they didn't know which family sent them over?" Speaking of which, she also felt very distressed and didn't know how to return the gift?
Hearing this, the corners of Li Qingling's mouth twitched, and he felt that the people of Ninghua County were really... I really don't know what to say to her, my heart is sour and moved.
She sighed silently and asked Xichun to put her things away, and if she had the chance, she would find a way to repay them.
Thinking of that large amount of food, Xichun couldn't help laughing and said, I can't collect it, it's all food.
"A lot?"
"That's more, more than I've given to adults before."
Li Qingling frowned, and after a while, he spoke, asking the cook at home to work hard, make all the things sent by the people, and open a flowing water banquet tonight to invite the people to eat.
After finishing speaking, he added another sentence, and the manpower of the family was transferred with the chef.
This time, I can only work hard to cook them, and I hope to make a temporary decision, I hope it will be in time.
Xichun said yes, and asked Li Qingling again, do you want to go out and buy some meat and come back? Otherwise, there is not enough to eat.
"To buy, you can calculate how much silver you need, just remember to keep the account."
Xichun responded with a good salute, hurriedly went to the kitchen, and after explaining Li Qingling's words, he took the silver, called two or three more guards, and ran out to buy meat.
During the period of buying meat, she also publicized by the way, and let the people go to the county to order the adults to eat.
When the people heard this, they were all boiling, and they all asked if Xichun was true?
Hee-chun nodded yes.
The butcher who sold pork to Xichun heard this, and said that he would not accept Xichun's silver, and gave it directly to Xichun as a birthday gift to the county lady.
Xichun had a serious face, shook his head and said no, Madame would not agree, and insisted on letting the butcher weigh it, and give as much silver as he could.
As a last resort, the butcher weighed the pork and secretly reduced half of the silver.
Xichun looked at him suspiciously and asked him if he was too little?
The butcher shook his head with a face of horizontal meat, and said that it was not too little, so much for all.
No, Xichun gave the silver and asked the guards to carry the pork home, and before leaving, she called the butcher again and told him to go to dinner.
She knew that the butcher had lost a lot of money, and she didn't want to argue with him, so she went along with him.
The butcher responded with a smile, saying that he would go on time, and asked Xichun if he wanted to help?
Xichun shook his head and said, "No, just come, don't bring any gifts, Madam doesn't like this, you know?" She was afraid that these people would bring some kind of gifts to the door.
The people nodded and said they knew.
As soon as Xichun left, the people talked about it word by word, and they were all begging for ideas, don't you really give gifts? Wouldn't it be nice to go empty-handed?
The person who heard the rumor spoke, "I heard that Mrs. County Ling wants to celebrate her birthday in a low-key manner, I don't know how this matter came out?" After many people heard about it, they secretly sent a lot of food to the door, and the county magistrate didn't want everyone to break the bank, so she decided to invite everyone to a meal. ”
Hearing this, the people were thoughtful, and after a while, many people made excuses to leave, and actually ran home to see what food to send to Mrs. County? In short, they are embarrassed to let them go to eat empty-handed.
Li Qingling didn't know about this at all, she was standing in the warehouse, frowning and looking at the things sent by the four families of He Zhao and Wang Lin, half-human coral, hundred-year-old ginseng, jade Guanyin, a box of pearls...
She was silent for a long time before she turned her head and said to Nian Xia, send it back...
She couldn't take such a precious thing.
"Yes, ma'am." Nian Xia looked at these four precious things, and she also felt her heart tremble, afraid that she would accidentally break it.
"When I send it back, I will say it tactfully, and say that I don't accept gifts from my wife, thank them for their kindness." Li Qingling told Nian Xia, "If they are free, they can come for a meal." "If the people don't invite them, it's unreasonable.
Nian Xia said hello again, ran out to find four guards, one of them was holding a thing, she took them to He Zhao Wang Lin's house with great dignity, and returned the gift.
This is a play, and it has caused a sensation in Ninghua County.
After the people found out, they felt that Mrs. County Ling was a good person, not a person who was in the same league as the four rich men.
Some people put the prepared gifts back, knowing that the county lady did not accept the gifts, and if they sent them over, it would seem that it was theirs, and it was better to give some food.
Anyway, the county magistrate's wife wants to invite them to dinner and send some food over, so they don't have to spend money to buy vegetables.
The thoughts of these people are also the thoughts of the people, and they are trying their best to send food to the county mansion.
Not long after, the door of the mansion was full of food again, and when Li Qingling heard it, he couldn't cry or laugh, so he simply asked the guards to guard outside the gate and didn't let the people send it.
It's just a birthday, and it's not worth letting the people spend so much.
As everyone knows, her decision made the guards guarding outside the gate fifteen to be scolded by the people.
"Hiccup, it's really not that I don't let you send it, it's Madame who ordered it, let you not break the bank, she has received your wishes, please bring things back, thank you for your cooperation."
Fifteen bitterly persuaded the people who wanted to send things, but the people did not do it, scolding Fifteen for being uneasy and kind, and not letting them send things.
Fifteen was scolded and wronged, this was really not his decision.
Nian Xia ran back and reported to Li Qingling with a smile, saying that if Li Qingling didn't save Fifteen, Fifteen would be scolded and cried.
Li Qingling smiled helplessly when he heard this, and stood up, "Let's go, let's take a look." She didn't expect the people to be so persistent.
When he went to the door, he heard the sound of the guard fifteen begging for mercy, and Li Qingling couldn't help but burst out laughing, it was really embarrassing for him.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, Madame is here." Nian Xia ran out first and roared, and in an instant, the noisy people quieted down.
Li Qingling walked to the gate, looked at the people, and said with a smile: "I have received your wishes, thank you." As she spoke, she bowed lightly to the people, "However, there is really no need to break the bank, just let the people arrive, and there is no need to give gifts." "The people of Ninghua County are so honest and so cute, how can she not want to take them to live a good life?
She already had a faint idea in her heart, just waiting for her to implement it.
When she is completely realized, she will publish her idea.
I hope that the people's lives will be better, not to mention rich and expensive, at least they can be fed and clothed.
"Madam, it's not a valuable thing, it's grown in our family, and it doesn't cost money."
"Yes, madam, we don't need money, we grow it ourselves, you can accept it, otherwise, we won't have the face to eat."
As soon as these words came out, others chimed in.
"Madam, the grass people have put things here, come and eat in the evening!" Some people are shrewd enough to put things on the ground, and people run away as soon as they smoke the smoke.
Others did the same, dropping things down and running.
“…”
Li Qingling looked at the pile of things on the ground, helplessly supported his forehead, waved his hand, and asked Fifteen to take the things back to the kitchen and let the chef do them.
