Chapter 20 Disaster Relief
Danzhu listened to Jintong's orders, buried himself in work, and didn't comment on anything. After holding it for a day, when he came back, he immediately found Jintong to gossip: "Madam, you don't know that Gu Xiangyun from the Chengping Marquis Mansion will pretend to be more!" ”
According to the appearance of Gu Xiangyun, the third lady of Xue Chengping, she sighed and supported Jintong with a frown: "This sister-in-law, does this wound hurt badly?" Bear with me, I'll help you with the medicine! ”
Jintong almost fell to the ground with a smile, and he couldn't imagine that Danzhu still had the potential to be an Oscar-winning actress.
"Madame, you don't know how contrived she is! Get in the way! She just helped a victim bandage his wounds, and Doctor Ye of the Rejuvenation Hall over there had already been optimistic about more than a dozen people! There was a leg that was folded so that the bones inside were exposed, and Dr. Ye just pressed the leg back and clamped it with a wooden plank! ”
He also talked to Jintong about Dr. Ye: "The three generations of the Ye family have practiced medicine, and Dr. Ye's father, in order to find a cure for smallpox, actually infected living people with smallpox virus, and as a result, several people died and were sentenced to beheading. In order to atone for his father's sins, Dr. Ye took a few days out of his medical studies every month to do free clinics, and did not refuse the poor people who came to seek medical treatment. This time, he saved the most people, and the people were full of praise! ”
Su Bai came over and pulled her: "Aren't you tired after running outside for a day?" Don't you want your wife to have a good rest? ”
Jintong: "I'm not tired, Danzhu, you go on!" ”
Danzhu talked about how Wu Ping saved people, how good his martial arts were, and the appearance of a little girl chasing stars.
"What do you think of Wu Ping? I think you can talk to her. Jintong changed the subject badly.
Danzhu, who was very happy, didn't react at all: "Wu Ping looks simple, but he is a good person." Madame, didn't you ask the slaves and maids to make him a few more pairs of shoes, and in the end, the slaves and maids brought them to him, a full ten pairs! He was embarrassed, and later went to the Splendid Pavilion to buy a flower Suya and give it to us. Although it was explained by Mrs., the sisters have also worked hard, so it is also appropriate to return some small gifts, so let's not dislike and accept them. ”
"Oh! Wu Ping: I remember there were 21, right? ”
"Ma'am, you're mistaken, just 20."
"He's 20, you're 18, you're a good match!"
Danzhu reacted at this time, and only turned around and ran out in shame.
"Oh, you're back! Let's talk about dowry! Jin Tong added a sentence urgently, Ning Zi and Yan Hong chased out with a smile to catch Danzhu back, and the master and servant made a mess. Jintong looked at Danzhu so ashamed that he was about to cry, and knew that he couldn't make jokes, so he stopped a few people from fighting, freshened up and went to sleep!
Danzhu is the slave of the Marquis of Jingbei, two years older than Jintong, and has been serving Jintong since she was six years old, and she is loyal, so Jintong naturally wants to arrange a good home for her.
Although the housewives of large families also keep their personal maids who are particularly valued until they are 25 years old before marrying, or simply open their faces as concubines.
But Jintong didn't want Danzhu to be so wronged, so he quietly talked to Danzhu the next day: "Danzhu, you tell me the truth, would you like to marry Wuping?" ”
Danzhu wrenched his hands and struggled for a long time: "Madam, you can't do without people by your side now, the slave and maid want to marry, and you have to wait for you to give birth to a son-in-law for the seventh master to gain a firm foothold before marrying!" ”
Jin Tong said in his heart that when the seventh master of your family comes back in three years, maybe they will throw a few of their masters and servants to the family temple.
Naturally, she couldn't say these words, she just tapped Danzhu's head with her fingers, and saved the country: "You are stupid!" Wu Ping is Wu An's younger brother, and you don't see how much Wu An is trusted by the Seventh Master. If you really like him, marrying him is equivalent to helping me pull a few more powerful helpers in the Hou Mansion! Besides, marry him and you can come back to me! You didn't see Wu'an's daughter-in-law Liang, who is also working as a housekeeper in the dining room now! There is no conflict between this marriage and serving me! ”
Danzhu suddenly realized: "Madame is right! When the time comes, Wu Ping won't let me come back to serve you, and I'll beat him. ”
Looking at Danzhu, who was clenching his fists and pretending to be violent with a sweet face, Jintong was convinced, and he thought about domestic violence before he could skim it: "You really deserve to be with me, and you specifically pick Wu Ping, an honest bully!" ”
Danzhu smirked.
Jintong thought for a moment and said to Danzhu: "I think about it carefully, it's better not to come back to serve me after you get married." ”
Danzhu was anxious: "Madam, why is this?" Do you have any resentment against slaves? Slave maid this, slave maid ---"
Jintong interrupted Danzhu: "You stupid girl!" Wu Ping is a citizen, you are a slave, if you and Wu Ping can do a good thing, you marry, I will naturally raise you to a civil nationality. When the two of you have a child, the man can participate in the scientific examination to seek a future, and the woman can also marry into a big family to be a lady in the main house, which is not a hundred times better than being a slave and a maid, you think about it yourself! ”
Jintong really planned for Danzhu, and she continued to analyze it to Danzhu: "Danzhu, Wuping already has military merits, and when the time comes, the two of you will either buy one or two hundred acres of land in the suburbs of Beijing and hire people to plant it, or stay in Beijing to do some small business, it is better than in the Hou Mansion." "Although the farmers and businessmen are ranked last, they are not ranked as slaves.
Danzhu was extremely moved, and only reddened his eyes: "Madam, what should you do alone?" ”
Jintong continued to point at Danzhu's head with his finger: "This feeling is a pig's head!" When have I ever been short of people around me? Don't talk about Mama Cai and Mama Qi, just listen to it a few times, and it is estimated that I will beat you up in a sack tonight. ”
What Jintong said was much more useful than herself, Danzhu was very self-aware, she knew that she was worried that she was too gaffe, so she only smirked at Jintong.
In the past few days, news has come from Wu'an one after another: the West Street in Beijing was the most seriously affected this time, due to the collapse of the ground, 347 people died, more than 1,000 people were seriously injured, and thousands were slightly injured. Thanks to the timely disaster relief, the injured were all assisted by the Rejuvenation Hall! The rest of the place is just a few cracks in the house, which hurts money and does not hurt people.
On the third day, the disaster in Weinan came, but it was not very serious. On the fifth day, it was determined that the earth moved in Shuzhong, the mountains toppled and the ground cracked, and it is roughly estimated that hundreds of thousands of people were affected, and the casualties are unknown.
Jin Tong was puzzled: "Wu'an, it is recorded in the twenty-four counties of Dayi that Weinan is close to Shuzhong, but it has a slight impact. And the capital is more than 3,000 miles away from Shuzhong, why is the situation more serious? ”
"The household department sent people to investigate, saying that the ground of West Street was low, and the rain a few days ago caused the land to loosen, and the ground would collapse when it moved, which caused the ground movement in the entire capital to aggravate. In the past few days, in the early dynasty, all the ministers have written to the prince, saying that the prince has died of illness for nearly three years, but the holy lord still does not appoint a new prince, and the world is unstable, so the heavens will warn and hurt the people. ”
Jin Tong lowered his eyes and complained in his heart: "This brain circuit! Absolutely! ”
Wu An saw that Jintong was noncommittal, and continued to report: "The ministers have written to set up the prince, King Rui is from the noble concubine, and the voice is the highest, followed by the King of Wei and the King of Jin. The Holy Lord was so angry that he didn't choose to speak, and said: If I establish the prince at this time, the collapsed ground of West Street will automatically rise? Will the 347 people who died and burned to ashes be resurrected immediately? Will the fallen mountain in Shu be restored to its original state? Will hundreds of thousands of victims be unharmed? Then arrange for Lord Gu and Lord Zuo to go to the disaster relief for the ministers. ”
In ancient times, the means of transportation were backward, and it would take four or five days to rush eight hundred miles, and when the minister arrived at the destination, not to mention that the daylily was cold, it was estimated that it would be rancid!
Jintong sighed, the level of ancient production technology is backward, and a natural disaster is countless deaths and injuries!
Wu An saw that Jintong's brows were tightly locked, thinking of what happened to Jingbei Hou back then, thinking that Jintong was worried about Zheng Qiyan, so he arched his hand and said: "Madame, don't worry!" There are indeed people in the DPRK who say that our marquis is ominous in southern Xinjiang, which leads to the turmoil of heaven and earth and the suffering of the people. But he was refuted by several ministers, saying that Hong Bo set himself up as the king of southern Xinjiang, was extravagant, and made people's skulls into drinking utensils, and he didn't see God kill him with thunder, and Hou Ye killed the group of evil Nanban before he called it for Tianxingdao! ”
Jintong didn't understand the affairs of the court, she was actually figuring out how to rebuild West Street and settle the 10,000 poor people, which was also a merit. Moreover, West Street is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and I heard that the Holy Lord occasionally pays private visits, and if you can see it with your own eyes, it can also improve the charitable image of the nobles in Beijing. By the way, the Sanhou Mansion related to Jintong can also have a good impression in the heart of the Holy Lord.
She had already instructed Zhang He to measure the entire area of West Street to her, and according to the topography, she drew a building plan, and accurately calculated that West Street could build more than 1,000 bungalows, which was enough to accommodate all the people in West Street.
So she took the drawings she had already drawn to Wu An, and when Wu An looked at the size indicated on it, he knew that he was drawing the floor plan of West Street.
"Wu'an, how much labor is needed to re-tamp the ground of West Street. Build a house, and look at the dimensions I have marked. Jin Tong pointed to the drawing: "How many bricks, how many tiles, how much wood, and other scattered materials such as sediment and gravel are needed, and how much silver is needed in total." You can calculate these for me as fast as possible. ”
Wu An carefully put away the drawings: "Madame, what else do you have to explain?" ”
Jin Tong bowed slightly, and suddenly the topic changed: "Wu An, Wu Ping is 20 this year, right?" Did you say that you had a family affair? ”
Wu An was taken aback, remembering that the fourth brother Wu Ning had told him: Mrs. resents the Seventh Master for being kind to him, and wants to raise a few faces to take revenge on the Seventh Master! At that time, he repeatedly told him that he must not let the seventh master know about this matter, and the lady said that he should not take it seriously! Now it seems that Mrs. should not take a fancy to Wu Ping's young and strong body, and want to get close to the water and get the moon first, right? This? How good is that?
Jin Tong looked at Wu An and trembled again, and said in his heart, this guy can't have Parkinson's syndrome, right? Why can't you move and get distracted and shake your hands.
Wu An's heart is bitter! He also worries about Wu Ping's personal affairs, in the past two years, he has seen several families that are not suitable, and this year there are many things in the house, so it will be delayed. If he lied to Wu Ping and said that he was close, where would he go to find a wishful daughter-in-law for Wu Ping in this hurry? If he tells the truth, what if this lady takes a fancy to Wu Ping?
The atmosphere instantly became inexplicably weird!
Jin Tong looked uncertain after seeing Wu An's old man for a long time, so he simply asked directly: "I want to match Danzhu to Wu Ping, you go and ask Wu Ping what he means, if he is also interested, what should I do, you are a brother, help well!" If he refuses, forget it, when I didn't say it! "The two love each other is a good match, Jintong doesn't want to mess with the mandarin duck spectrum.
Wu An shuddered, Mrs. really fell in love with Wu Ping, fortunately! It was for her personal maid to take a fancy to him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly thanked Jintong and went back to find Wu Ping.
Danzhu, as one of Jintong's personal big girls, Wu An has a lot of contact, so he has some understanding. He pondered that this family affair was good, Danzhu had a lively personality and was clever, and he thought that he was quite a match with his younger brother. He hurriedly responded to this matter and thanked Jintong repeatedly.
