After some discussion, the village unanimously agreed with Lan Yi's statement, listed the requirements for the employment of people in the village, sorted them out on a large piece of paper, and pasted them at the entrance of the village department, and Zhao Lizheng explained it clearly to the victims in the village.

Lan Yi and Second Uncle Wang went to the inn together, and asked Li Ying and Ruhua to calculate how many people they could take.

"Feeding the horses, doing chores, washing dishes, washing quilts, all these jobs that don't require much experience, the inn can accept ten. The owner, the kitchen and the guys in the store can't be changed, otherwise our signboard will be smashed if something happens. Li Ying replied.

Lan Yi also knew that this should be the case, so after thinking about it, she added a few more, "Hire four more to help feed the ducks on the hillside and do some farm work." As for who you want, such as flowers, it's up to you to check it. ”

Ruhua nodded, she felt the situation of the victims in the village about the same, which was not difficult.

Second Uncle Wang discussed with Lan Yi, "The people we vacate here are always idle at home, and there is no work to do in the city now." Do you think this is possible, we have water in the village, we can farm, and now vegetables are also expensive, so let everyone have a variety of vegetables, just plant spinach, celery, leeks, and radish and cabbage, which are easy to manage, and sell them if they can sell them themselves, and if they can't sell them, we will collect them and help sell them, do we have such a way? ”

Lan Yi thought for a while, nodded and said, "This is a good way, I'll find the way, regardless of the price of the dish, you just have to tell everyone how many can be sold." ”

Second Uncle Wang smiled reassuringly, "Your body is heavy, let your second brother and third brother go about running errands and passing the word." Old man Zhou, don't be angry with him, just leave him cold, and leave the rest to the second uncle! ”

Lan Yi frowned, "Don't come forward, I'll do this, you have a lot of things on your hands, and the mansion in the city still has to be cleaned up." ”

Second Uncle Wang made a decision and bought the three-entry mansion that the Liu family fancied. The family was happy about this for a long time, and went into the city to clean up and arrange the house, and the people in the village knew that the Wang family had bought a yard in the city, and they all wanted to see it. Second Uncle Wang simply invited everyone to set the table in the new courtyard for a meal, and the people in the village were full of praise for the big courtyard of the Wang family, and Second Uncle Wang finally had a smile again, and no longer had a dark face because he couldn't build a new house in the village.

Second Uncle Wang smiled and counted them one by one, "The house is almost cleaned up." The peony on the hillside, the twenty acres of land in the village and in Zhoujia Village, plus the arrangement of everyone to plant vegetables, is also a lot, it is time to harvest peony seeds in two days, this time you stay at home, I arranged for someone to collect it and send it to the oil mill. ”

But isn't it, the peony seeds on the hillside should be harvested again. Lan Yi walked slowly in the garden, stretched out her finger and touched the blackened peony pods, the weather was bad this year, the peony pods were less than last year, and they were not as big as last year, but it was good to be able to collect these.

Ruhua helped Lan Yi to walk down slowly, and said with a smile, "Madam, I'm also joining in the fun this year and helping everyone collect peonies, okay?" ”

Lan Yi glanced at her, "Think the inn is boring?" ”

These days, because of the water of the dragon, there are many people in the county who come to Beigou Village to drink the water of the dragon in the summer, so the inn is busy again, and Lan Yi asked Ruhua to come over to help. Ruhua covered her mouth and smiled, looking at the peonies all over the mountain with a thousand graces, which attracted several painting students in the pavilion to be out of their bodies and drop their pens, "Interesting, very interesting." Ruhua is now quite able to understand the feeling of Mrs. farming, we have little work in the field at home, and are some weeds and insects chores, it is rare to catch up with the receipt, such as flowers want to experience a handful. ”

Lan Yi smiled, "Okay, after a long time, I will go to the city and take turns staring at Cheng Zimu with Shui Xiu, I will only have action in the next few days." ”

"Good!" Ruhua smiled and helped Lan Yi down the mountain, looked at Yu Yan who was walking hand in hand with Wen Xuan in front of her, and secretly sighed that she was a few years younger.

Yu'er came back from school, walked up to her mother, and lowered her head sullenly. Lan Yi put down the half-made small clothes, took his hand and asked, "What's the matter, but I'm not feeling well?" ”

Yu'er shook her head, sat next to Lan Yi, pillowed her legs with her head, and said in a low voice, "There are disaster victims in the village who are selling their children under the old locust tree. ”

Lan Yi frowned, and suddenly understood what was going on! The standard for the county to give food to the victims is over six years old, and children under the age of six have no food to receive, so it becomes a burden, especially those daughters who cannot carry on the family lineage. Lan Yi knew that Yu'er remembered the past, touched his head, and comforted him silently.

I don't know when, Lei Jin walked over and sighed, the year before last, the central states were seriously affected, and the hungry victims ate everything they could eat, so they lost their humanity, and they were easy to eat, compared to it, the victims here are much luckier, "Fourth sister, Yu'er, it is better for children to follow such ruthless parents, it is better to be sold." If you meet a kind-hearted person, you may be able to live in peace. ”

Lan Yi nodded, "Third brother, it is the responsibility of the imperial court to help the victims, why should they be divided into six years old or below?" Eight catties of grain in a month shouldn't be too much for the imperial court, right? ”

Yu'er also raised her head and looked at the third uncle, waiting for him to answer. Lei Jin sneered, "Most of the children under the age of six have not yet been naturalized, and none of them have a reasonable population. However, according to the usual practice, if some people are affected by disasters and cannot survive on their own, the daily payment should not be less than 20. This time, several states suffered, the treasury was full, and the states also entered Beijing with the fold of reporting the disaster, and the rent-free grain was approved for disaster relief, which should be at the same time. According to the price of prices in Huang County at this time, 600 wen should have forty or fifty catties of brown rice with bran skin. Now there are only eight catties down, and the ones sent out are naturally greedy by the local officials! ”

Lan Yi was angry when she heard this, "Can't this matter be sued, if it is found out, they will be guilty of a capital crime of losing their heads." ”

"This money must not be a person who is greedy, peeling off the skin layer by layer, and the officials protect each other, who will sue and who should be sued? Now each victim can still have eight catties of food, and they are not considered to have lost their hearts, leaving a way for the victims to live! "Lei Jin is well versed in the darkness of officialdom, "Dengzhou Zhizhou should not have such a benevolent heart, if it is expected by his brother, these eight catties of grain should be begged by Liu Guo even more 'dead face'." Reasoning, there are no displaced people in Huang County, and he can completely order people to drive the disaster victims out of Huang County, but he is willing to do his best to contain the disaster victims in the whole county, and he can come up with such a safe method, which is already a great good. ”

Lan Yi lowered her eyes, the darkness of officialdom has not changed from ancient times to the present, a clean official who is dedicated to the people is difficult to do, rare, "Third brother, such a good official, it is good to have more." ”

Lei Jin nodded, comforting Lan Yi and said, "The saint has worked hard to make the country prosperous, repair the national law, and recruit good talents, which has achieved initial results, and in a few decades, the court will definitely be different, and there will be more and more officials like Liu Guogen." ”

Liu Guo is a little more sleek than many "Qing officials" who would rather bend than bend and do not know how to be flexible, and he does things eclecticly, but he can often achieve miraculous results. If he hadn't had this ability, Lei Jin wouldn't have secretly used some means to make him the magistrate of Huang County.

Lan Yi smiled and said clearly, "Well, it will definitely get better and better." After speaking, she looked down at Yu'er, who had a serious face, and asked softly, "Uncle's words, do you understand?" ”
