Since Li Yuan's instruction came down, Gu Qing obviously felt that his living standard had dropped significantly, just take meat as an example, Gu Qing used to be either mutton, beef, not to mention fish and shrimp, there are countless of them, now I can eat a meal in two days Gu Qing likes, thank God!

"Why is it tofu and greens? Can't you have some meat? "Gu Qing poked around in the dish with chopsticks, these things, you can't eat them when you look at them, okay?" Alas, give me a bowl of soup first! ”

Speaking of this soup, it is still Gu Qing's favorite bone broth recently, this kind of meatless bones, no one likes it, Gu Qing likes it, so there are a lot of them in the kitchen.

"Niangniang, this soup doesn't even have meat, why do you love it so much?" Cherry handed Gu Qing the soup bowl and asked.

Gu Qing blew the soup, "What do you know?" This essence is in the bones, simmer for half a day, and all the good things will come out, and your mother will live on this now. ”

Gu Qing's statement still can't say that the cherry is moving, in her opinion, there is nothing on this bare bare bare bone, where did the mother say what essence did she say?

After drinking a bowl of soup, Gu Qing was also half full, and then he began to eat, and now the harem has reduced clothes and food, stipulating that in addition to the emperor and queen, all the concubines in the harem must follow, mainly vegetarian dishes every day, supplemented by meat dishes, those concubines who like to eat vegetarian and lose weight are okay, it is not a change, but it is bitter for Gu Qing, a carnivore. Sometimes Gu Qing really wonders if this policy is aimed at her.

"Mother, who are you looking for?"

Gu Qing didn't have to guess, except for Ke Lan, an idler, it seemed that no one else would come to her again.

"Kelan, why do you say that you are so free in a day, you don't have to do anything in your palace? One day you know to come to me. Looking at Ke Lan, Gu Qing was a little disgusted, this person whose IQ is not as good as hers, can't play together often, and then their IQ will become the same low, my mother said that only by playing with smart people can I become smarter.

Ke Lan had long been accustomed to Gu Qing's attitude, and sat down by herself. "Why haven't you finished eating yet? Hurry up and eat, eat and let's go see the excitement together. ”

Gu Qing ate slowly, "What else is there to see in this palace, if I don't want to go, I'll sleep in the room, you can go by yourself." ”

Seeing that Gu Qing was not interested, Ke Lan said proudly, "Then I'll go, you don't want to go out of the palace to play, that's your business, when the time comes, I will go out of the palace to eat meat and see if I don't want to kill you." ”

"What? What? What? What did you just say? Why didn't I hear clearly? Out of the palace? Eating meat? Gu Qing asked with an excited look on his face. Tell me quickly, I heard you right. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, you heard me right." Ke Lan took off Gu Qing's hand speechlessly, "Didn't Li Zhaoyi say before that she wanted to use the reduced silver taels for charity?" No, I'm going to start soup soup today, I heard that we can all go over there to have a look, I don't want to, I can take this opportunity to go out and open meat. "Speaking of eating meat, Ke Lan is also a little greedy, originally she was a little fat physique, and she has always controlled meat, but recently she has been controlled so much that even she can't help it.

Gu Qing put down the dishes and chopsticks with a bang, "Then what else do I eat?" Let's go, go out to eat, I'm in for a treat. ”

Ke Lan was also suppressed by Gu Qing's arrogance, obediently, rich people are different!

Within an hour, Gu Qing and Ke Lan were sitting upstairs at the soup kitchen, enjoying the food they hadn't enjoyed for a long time.

"Hey, this chicken leg is too delicious, isn't it? And this lamb skewer, woo woo woo ~ I want to pack it and take it back. ”

"Well, it's like, it's been a long time, uh, I haven't eaten anything so delicious."

"Eat quickly, don't be polite to my sister, my sister is rich, when the time comes, I can't finish eating and pack it back and take it back, by the way, remember to bring some to Xiao Qingqing, I see that she has lost weight."

"Yes, she's been busy lately and can't eat well, so she's very poor."

The heroic eating method of the two completely suppressed a group of maids and minions, and the two mothers ate each other...... Don't look at indecency, don't look at indecency.

The two of them ate wildly for a while, and finally they were a little satisfied, and finally stopped to catch their breath.

"Is this a soup kitchen downstairs?" Gu Qing was full of food and drink, and also remembered what happened this time in addition to business.

Cherry blessed the body, "Back to Niangniang's words, the slave maid asked just now is indeed here." I heard that this year's drought has caused many people to be unable to afford to eat, so there are many people who come to eat porridge, and after the soup is given every day, there are still many people who have not received it, and those people refuse to leave at the door, waiting for the next day to receive the porridge. ”

"So serious?" Gu Qing didn't expect the drought to be so severe this year, "What should I do then?" They can't eat? ”

"Niangniang, there are a lot of soup kitchens in the city now, but it's still not enough, and there are always people who can't eat, especially the elderly and children." Cherry thought about the child who had been robbed of her food before, and couldn't help but wipe away her tears.

Gu Qing stood upstairs, looking at the children who were crowded among the adults and could only leak out a small head, Gu Qing also felt very worried, since there was a puff, Gu Qing liked children even more.

"Then they can't eat, what should they do?"

"Only hungry."

Cherry's words are a little cruel, but they are true.

"What are you doing? This is the porridge I received. ”

"Get out, this is Uncle Ben's, I can't keep what I eat, and I blame others? Don't get in the way here. ”

"You return my porridge, return my porridge."

"Fuck off."

The quarrel downstairs did not last long, under the violent suppression of men, the children could only succumb, and the people around seemed to be familiar with such things, and when everyone received the porridge, they either drank it in one go, or held it tightly, and were robbed by bad luck, or were beaten half to death, or they considered themselves unlucky.

"Does no one care?" Gu Qing felt that this way was wrong, in this case, adult men could easily snatch the food of the old, weak, sick and disabled, those people were not wrong, why didn't they get a fair chance to live?

Cherry sighed, "Niangniang, it would have been nice to have someone to give porridge, but it doesn't matter if they can really eat it." ”

"That's not good, I'll take care of it." Gu Qing thought of those poor children, and then thought of Puff, if Puff lived in such a situation where she couldn't even eat a mouthful of porridge, how sad would she be? "Let's go, go back and discuss."

Gu Qing went out in a hurry, and went back in a hurry, doing such a big thing, how could Xiao Qingqing and them be missing?

"So, what are you going to do exactly?" Xiao Qingqing frowned, before Li Yuan proposed soup kitchen, Xiao Qingqing had expected a lot of old people and children couldn't eat it.

Gu Qing said in a rare and serious manner, "At present, I have an idea, children and the elderly can eat for free, but we must complete the things we have explained, for example, children must read every day according to the regulations, and exchange knowledge for food, as for the elderly, they I thought, there is no labor, why don't you go to sweep the street?" ”

Gu Qing said this is really a little strange, "I support your idea, it sounds good, but what does it mean to sweep the street?" Kelan didn't quite understand what it meant to sweep the streets.

"To sweep the street is to clean the street and make it cleaner and more beautiful." Gu Qing explained, "At present, I have thought so much, do you have any ideas?" ”

Xiao Qingqing, "Since you want to do it, you have to do it well, the people in charge must be carefully selected, and there are those who want to maintain order, all of which must be required." The most important thing is the silver tael, Ke Lan and I are not as rich as you, so we may only be able to contribute a small part. ”

Gu Qing waved his hand, "It's okay, I'll pay for it, you guys will contribute, it's the same, if you want to do it, you can do it with a big vote, and you can do your best." ”

The three of them started with high morale.

Speaking of helpers, Gu Qing first thought of Grandma Chen's family, now Chen Chen is in Gu Qing's shop, in charge of finance, and the shopkeeper who took him is very optimistic about him, the most surprising thing for Gu Qing is Chen Jing, her hands-on ability is actually stronger than Chen Chen, she has been promoted to a small shopkeeper, and her future is bright.

When the three of them continued Gu Qing's work, they were very happy, since Gu Qing helped Chen Jing cure her illness and arranged such a good job for them, the family was grateful to Gu Qing, and they didn't know how to repay Gu Qing, so they could only work hard and not lose anything to Gu Qing.

Now that Gu Qing asked them to help with things, they were excited, but they had to seize the opportunity to let Gu Qing know that they were thinking about her.

What Gu Qing ordered, they were even more attentive, and with the assistance of Xiao Qingqing and Ke Lan, this intercontinental world was born.

The emergence of the intercontinental world has caused quite a stir in Yanjing, and the reason is precisely because only children and the elderly can eat for free in this store, but when it comes to free, it is not really free, everyone must pay their own knowledge or some labor to get food, but these are also things they do not lack, so it can be called free.

Intercontinental World, as the name suggests, is also the meaning of porridge to help the world. It is not just a simple charity association, Chen Jing has a good grasp of Gu Qing's meaning, that is, to let displaced children go to school and study, and in Chen Jing's opinion, these are not only so simple, but also to cultivate more useful people for the little prince in the future, so this intercontinental world is doing things in the name of Concubine Yue.

If Gu Qing knew about this, she probably didn't know that she would think so long-term, after all, Puff is still a little kid!

Not to mention anything else, when the intercontinental world first opened, I heard that only children and the elderly could eat, and everyone still couldn't believe that some young people tried to go in to get food, but they were bombarded out by the next people.

For a time, the reputation of the intercontinental world instantly spread throughout Yanjing, as long as you can read, you can get a big white steamed bun by sweeping the floor, this is a good thing, but it is pie in the sky!

In order to receive food, the children are all working hard to study, and there is a study hall in Intercontinental World, where all children can go in and study for free, and the teachers who teach are also retired college students.

And those old people who cleaned the street, in order to thank Gu Qing, even used 10,000 distractions to clean, with their street is not clean, this obvious change has alarmed many people, many people have the idea of the intercontinental world, but when you ask, how obedient, Concubine Yue's industry? Don't dare to mess with that, who can provoke the favorite concubine?

Besides, what can a harem woman do? This thing must have been done by the emperor through the hands of Concubine Yue, is the emperor's big move dissatisfied with the atmosphere in the court?

Many officials who had committed crimes and had unclean hands in their hands, some of them were afraid to hide at home and claim illness, and did not dare to enter the court. There are also those who surrendered, and they also held a small life, these series of actions made Yan Ze confused, and only after this inquiry did he know that Gu Qing had made such a big deal under his nose.

This is a good thing, but if you don't discuss it with him, it shouldn't be, but whether this should be praised or criticized, Yan Ze can't grasp it, thinking about it, it's better to go to Changle Palace first, and then talk about the future.
