Chapter 126: Listening to the News

In the middle of the night, someone suddenly spoke in the dark, even if Shi Jin didn't feel that there was anything to be ashamed of, he was still startled.

Stopping, she looked towards the place where the voice came from, and when she saw the person standing clearly, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Little Hou Ye." ”

The person who spoke was Meng Chang, and after he heard the movement, he came out to check it out and witnessed the whole process.

When everyone went to Madame Jiang's side, he stayed and checked the situation, thus deducing that everything was actually directed and acted by Shi Jin.

will hide in the dark and ask Shi Jin, it's not that he wants to expose her, or use it to threaten her, but he just wants to hear it in person.

"I don't really understand what the little marquis means. It's late at night, so you get to bed early. Saluting at Meng Chang, Shi Jin continued to walk forward, and there was a line of sight behind her, but she just didn't.

As far as Shi Jin is concerned, even though Meng Chang has helped their mother and daughter a lot, since the dust has settled this time, it doesn't matter whether it is right or not.

Moreover, who can guarantee that this black light is blind, and there is no one else in secret, even if Meng Chang has no other intentions, just to be sure, but once it is known by others, there will be a lot of trouble.

In addition, Shi Jin now also wants to go back quickly and do more processing, so as not to be detected by others.

Meng Chang stood there, watching Shi Jin walk farther and farther, although he hadn't heard her say it himself, he didn't care so much.

As a woman, it is not easy to live with two children, others have repeatedly embarrassed, and even harmed children, not to mention calculation, if it is him, I am afraid that he will find a way to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Thinking of this, Meng Chang retracted his gaze, sensed one or two around, and made sure that there was no one else, so he left.

——

After the incident of the Jin family's father and daughter, the team trimmed slightly and set off again.

After several days of travel, we finally arrived at a city.

Unlike the previous town, the city is particularly prosperous, as if the drought in other places has nothing to do with it.

The Jiang family has a house here, so after entering the city, they went directly to the house.

Shi Jin settled the eldest girl and the second girl, and after saying a word to Fang's mother, she left the house, she didn't go too far, after all, she was not familiar with this place.

Finding a tea stall on the side of the road, she asked for a bowl of herbal tea, and sat down to drink it while listening to people.

"Oh, have you heard? Recently, the price of grain has risen a lot, and many farmers outside the city have sold the grain from their fields. ”

"This is not the time for the harvest, and if the grain is sold, will it not be a waste?"

"You don't know this, it's selling grain, but it's not selling it now, you have to wait for the harvest to take it away, and the people in the village on both sides will be used as a guarantee, and some money will be collected in advance, and then it will be paid."

"Ouch, how much has the price of food gone up? I heard that it will go up again? You say this is good, why do you want to increase food prices, it can't be other places that have been affected, right? ”

The locals sitting at the tea stall drinking tea chatted word by word, they guessed the reason for the increase in the price of this year's harvest, Shi Jin sat on the side, listening clearly.

She knew that some of them had guessed correctly, and there was indeed a place where there was a disaster, so it was like this.

These ordinary people are different from those who do business all year round, as well as those official eunuchs, and the information difference between the two sides is extremely unequal.

Most of the time, it is the official eunuchs who get the news first, then the businessmen, and finally the ordinary people.

If you are a little sensitive, you will not suffer a big loss, but if you only think about selling more money, I am afraid that this big loss will be paid.

Although Shi Jin has not seen the disasters elsewhere with her own eyes, she is a person who has read the whole book after all, and she knows what the disaster will be like later, but she doesn't know what she should do to make those ordinary people suffer less.

After taking a sip of tea, Shi Jin sighed in her heart, she came to the book, even if she knew a lot of things, she was still very powerless, it was not easy for her to live well with her children, and she still wanted to help others, it was purely self-defeating.

After drinking the tea, Shi Jin paid the money and got up to leave.

When she returned to the Jiang Mansion, the first thing she did was to check the food and medicinal materials owned by the three of them, and she became more and more sure that she had to follow the Jiang family's team no matter what, and the closer she got to Kyoto, the more she could ensure the survival of the mother and daughter.

Of course, Mrs. Jiang had no way of knowing her plans and arrangements.

But like Shi Jin, after settling down, she immediately ordered people to investigate the situation inside and outside the city, as well as the disaster situation in various places.

There are some businesses of the Jiang family in the city, two of which are not bad, but the rest are not very good, Mrs. Jiang pondered and wanted to sell those few houses.

——

"Auntie, are you alright?" Shi Jin followed the Jiang family to settle down temporarily, but Yun Niang and the others who came out of the village had no place to stay at the moment.

They are okay, after all, they are young, but they are a little unbearable at the age of Granny Yan.

But they didn't dare to rest too much, after leaving the village, they also chose to go to Kyoto, unlike the Jiang family's team, their feet were not so fast, and they all dragged their families with their mouths, and they could see more nature.

At first, they were able to move normally, but as the disaster spread, they could no longer be the same.

Except when you are resting, you have to be watched, you have to eat and drink secretly, and it is best to go to a place where there is no one at all.

For most people, it is instinct to want to live, but not everyone can be reminded by Shi Jin like Granny Yan and others.

Therefore, those who are unprepared but want to live inevitably want to beat others, and it is also thanks to Granny Yan and others who go in groups, which makes the danger a lot lower.

In addition to the same people, occasionally encounter hungry beasts, but fortunately, there are many people, but they can resist one or two.

But in the past few days, because of the hurry, Granny Yan and the children of Yun Niang's family have been sick.

Even though Yun Niang and his wife are both people who are skilled in medicine, and they also have medicinal materials on their bodies, but if they are sick on the way, it is better to be down-to-earth and recuperate in peace.

Therefore, whether it is Granny Yan or the child, the condition is repeated and worrying.

"Yun Niang, don't waste this medicine on me, it's only right to let the child get better quickly. My wife is old, and I won't lose if I leave now. ”

Looking at Yun Niang, who delivered the medicine to her, Granny Yan said with a smile.

"Auntie, what are you talking about? Don't worry, we still have a lot of medicines, not bad for you. Besides, since we came out together, we have to go to Kyoto together anyway. ”

Yun Niang took the medicine and said with disgust: "Let's come out these days, I don't know how much Jinniang thinks about us, she also went to Kyoto, don't you want to go to Kyoto and see her and the children again?" So, you have to have that energy yourself, hurry up and get better! ”
