The carriage that Shen Tunan asked for was for Sang Luo and Yuejian to sit in, and he rode a horse.

The carriage was not fast, and it did not arrive at the official post that night, so I could only find an inn to live in.

Although the inn is located in the disaster area, the food is good, and there is water bathing, but the price is extremely expensive.

Sanglu gave up, and it was the same when he went to the space to wash. I only asked for a basin of water for Tsukimi.

The guy who delivered the water came into the house and put away the dishes and chopsticks by the way.

Sang Luo asked curiously: "Your inn is quite good, you have everything to eat!" Has the drought not affected you? ”

The guy said while cleaning up: "How can it not be affected, rice and noodles are extremely expensive, so the price of accommodation will be half more expensive than before." ”

"It's normal for the price of rice noodles to rise in disaster years, where do you buy rice noodles from?" Sang Luo asked casually.

The guy was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm just a guy who runs the hall, and I have to ask our shopkeeper about this." Madame, if you have no other orders, the little one will retreat. ”

Sang Luo smiled and waved his hand: "Go down!" ”

Yuejian asked with some curiosity: "Mother, why are you asking about this?" ”

"Along the way, there are more people fleeing the famine than half a month ago. It shows that the people really can't live in this realm, but look at this inn. ”

Tsukimi didn't understand too much, "What's wrong with this inn?" ”

"This inn is not lacking in anything, although the house price is more expensive, you can take out a full amount of rice, white flour steamed buns. There was no shortage of food at all. ”

"Mother, do you mean that Funing is not really badly affected?" Tsukimi asked.

"The disaster must have been affected, and that is what we have seen with our own eyes. It's just ......" Sang Luo doesn't know if his speculation is right!

"Tuk Tuk!" There was a knock at the door.

Yuejian got up to open the door, and Shen Tunan stood at the door.

"Lord Shen, is there something wrong?"

Shen Tunan was a little embarrassed and said, "Uh...... Is the meal still appetizing? ”

Yuejian hurriedly lowered his eyes and nodded slightly: "It's good!" ”

"That'...... Is the quilt thick on the bed? Do you need to change to a thinner one? Shen Tunan worked hard to find a topic.

"It's good, no need!" Tsukimi still lowered his head and didn't dare to raise his eyes.

"That ......"

Shen Tunan didn't know what else to say for a while? It's just that the heart is beating hard. He didn't know why he knocked on the door out of the blue, but he just wanted to meet her.

Sang Luo looked at the two of them and was stunned, this Shen Tunan suddenly came over for fear that something was wrong!

"Lord Shen!"

Shen Tunan hurriedly raised his eyes to look at Sang Luo, and immediately gave his hand: "Mrs. Sang!" ”

"You've come just in time, I'm having something to tell you, come in!" Sang Luo shouted.

Yuejian hurriedly got out of the way and asked Shen Tunan to come in.

Shen Tunan was overjoyed, so he raised his legs and entered the house.

"Sit!" Sang Luo called Shen Tunan to sit down, picked up the teapot on the table and poured him a cup of tea.

"Thank you!" Shen Tunan was a little nervous in his heart, his eyes looked at the tea and thanked him, and he didn't dare to look directly into Sang Luo's eyes.

Sang Luo said: "I just told Yuejian, the dishes in this inn are good? It doesn't look like it's been plagued at all. ”

Shen Tu Nan raised his eyes and said, "Mrs. Sang, do you also suspect that although Funing was affected, it has not reached the point of running out of food?" ”

"You noticed that, too?" Sang Luo asked.

"I personally went to several counties to inspect the field, and the people were indeed affected. But it is very doubtful to say that there is no food in the city and no food in the official warehouse. Shen Tunan said his thoughts.

"Why?" Sang Luo hurriedly asked.

"Because the first two years were bumper harvests, most of the people had surplus food. Most of the people who fled this year's famine did so because they sold their surplus grain last year, so there should be a lot of grain on the market, and the price will not double because of the lack of surplus grain. ”

Sang Luo understood and said, "Do you think that the merchants are deliberately hoarding grain and selling it at a high price to make huge profits?" ”

Shen Tunan nodded: "Yes, that's why I went to Osaki to ask for your assistance." ”

"Does Lord Huan know?" Sang Luo asked.

"He knows! Moreover, the imperial court did not come up with a lot of materials for this disaster relief. Because the treasury is not abundant, we can only let the household department figure out its own way! Shen Tunan was a little upset when he mentioned this.

The imperial court did not give it, and the local officials had their own ghosts, and their disaster relief was really difficult.

If there is no food, the people will not have anything to eat, and they will probably starve to death.

And the place pretended to be pitiful, and stretched out his hand to the court, wanting to ask the court for more.

Sang Luo pondered for a while, and then said, "I'll see Lord Huan tomorrow, and we'll discuss the disaster relief together." Lord Shen should go back and rest first! ”

"Good!" Shen Tunan got up and left.

Yuejian closed the door, looked back at his mother, and looked surprised: "Mother, you thought of so much based on the food at the inn today?" ”

"If you're not mistaken, the owner of this inn is also in the grain business! When asked where he bought the food, the guy played dumb. ”

Yuejian admires her mother too much, where is this still the mother who didn't care about anything?

"Mother, are you happy to hide your true self for your father?"

Why do you suddenly ask this?

Sang Luo was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "People say that the priest dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases himself." Because I love your father! As long as he's happy, I'm happy. It's not that I'm hiding my true self, that's just another side of me. ”

Yuejian was silent, she and Zhuang Zhiyuan have been married for two years, and she has never said in front of him that she likes poetry and books, and she has never written in front of him.

Because he likes to dance and write but has no real talent, in order not to hurt his self-esteem, she pretends not to understand, and occasionally writes a sentence or two, and she will praise it.

But she wasn't happy!

So, is that because she doesn't love Zhuang Zhiyuan?

"Mother! Does loving someone feel happy as long as he sees him happy, no matter how much he is wronged? ”

Sang Luo didn't know how to answer for a while, but it was rare that Tsukimi, who didn't like to talk, could talk to her about this, and she didn't seem to be too perfunctory.

But she is a single dog, a person with no love experience, how can she give a very standard answer?

"Uh...... That's not how loving someone is defined. A good love should be one of mutual appreciation, mutual trust and mutual respect, and everyone's experience is different. But if that person makes you feel wronged, then he must not love you! Isn't it good to love yourself? Why suffer that grievance! ”

Sang Luo felt that this answer should be almost the same, she has never been in love!

Tsukimi nodded, she felt that her mother was reasonable, and she didn't let herself be wronged.

"Mother, which side of yourself do you want to be?"

"This ...... I am willing to show my weak side in front of your father because I enjoy his care. He took such good care of me, I didn't have to be on my own like I am now. can be spoiled as a child, who wants to grow up, right? ”
