Chapter 162: Panic can't work

Numbly wiping her face with a handkerchief, Ruixue really wanted to cheer herself up.

The fire burned her eyebrows, and she remembered that people need to eat and sleep.

What a serious problem it was, how could she be so stupid to think about how urgent it was to feed thousands of people.

Why didn't anyone remind her before.

Seeing that Rui Xue was in low spirits, Xiao Xing reached out and grabbed the handkerchief in Rui Xue's hand.

"Miss, what's wrong with you today, are you worried about Beique's affairs? It's better to ask the prince, he should know more. ”

Ruixue shook her head: "Xing, let's go a few days, I'm afraid we're going to be hungry." ”

Xiao Xing didn't care, and pulled Rui Xue to comb her hair: "How come, I didn't listen to them say that there was a shortage of food." ”

Ruixue turned her head a little dejectedly, her curly hair blurred.

"We didn't have to feed so many people before, as soon as the people of the eighteen-mile shop came over, eating and drinking every day was not a small amount, and the grain that was hoarded in the eighteen-mile shop before was now gone. We have never grown grain in our village, and the little we saved is enough to eat for a few days? ”

Xiao Xing paused: "I haven't thought about this, I'll ask Qian Lao later, he used to take care of these things." Don't worry too much, Miss, there will be a way. ”

Ruixue took the comb and pulled her hair up in three or two clicks.

"I'd better ask myself, this matter is already burning my eyebrows."

"Then I won't learn to ride a horse today, Xiao Tao is still waiting for Miss outside."

Xiao Xing grabbed the cloak on the side and chased Rui Xue out the door.

The two went to the newly built earthen stove in the courtyard, and the aunt who was cooking stopped their work when they saw Ruixue coming.

Thin porridge was boiling in the cauldron, and there were no grains of rice in the clear soup, which once again confirmed Ruixue's concerns.

The reason why no one told her about this was because these people from Eighteen Miles didn't eat in the same pot as Rui Xue.

They didn't feel that Ruixue was responsible for their food and drink, and it was good to have a place to stay now.

Unwilling to trouble Ruixue for this matter anymore, they have been ignored and oppressed by the mainstream society for more than ten years, so that they have become accustomed to patience.

It's not unheard of in the days of extreme cold, and now it's really nothing.

They also have their own way of life and are reluctant to bother others.

The child sniffled and stood far away waiting for the meal to start.

Rui Xue was a little sad, what stupid things had she done, and wishful thinking made a decision for them to recapture Eighteen Mile Shop from Jiang Huai.

I didn't settle down to ask them if they needed it, if they wanted it.

The face couldn't help but be a little gloomy, and the aunt who cooked the rice was also cramped.

"Miss thinks we're noisy, I'll tell them to be careful and try not to make a noise to Miss."

Rui Xue hurriedly shook her head and explained: "No, no, I just came to see how your food is, the weather is getting colder and colder, so you still have to eat more." ”

The aunt stirred the gruel in the pot and said softly: "The food brought has to be planned to eat, and now that there is no income, we must always take care of the people who go out to work to eat their stomachs first. ”

The eyes of the children waiting for the meal to be opened are green, and Ruixue is not good to stay, she stays here, and everyone will always be a little uncomfortable.

After looking around, I met the old money who was going to the racecourse.

Raised his feet and got into Lao Qian's ox cart: "Old Qian, how much food do we have, I don't think it's enough to eat, can you think of some food." ”

Old Qian stroked his beard and looked at Ruixue in some surprise.

"Miss, listen to nonsense, we have never been short of food, enough to eat until next year's new food. As for the labor on the side of the eighteen-mile shop and the racecourse, there is no need for Miss to worry, they will solve it themselves. ”

Rui Xue was very dissatisfied with Lao Qian's perfunctory statement.

They have never farmed, they rely on buying food, and Jiang Huai used to manage it, so naturally they didn't need to pay too much attention to Ruixue.

Now there is no such good thing, if the two warehouses of grain are not used to help Zhao Fengnian, maybe they can be more comfortable.

All of Ruixue's plans are not wrong in the general direction, but the bad thing is that she ignores some inconspicuous small details.

"Why should Qian Lao hide it from me, some of my previous decisions were wrong, I took too big a step, and I didn't take into account the situation that would occur in the future."

Lao Qian said that Rui Xue should not worry too much, but in fact, he himself was panicked.

Suddenly having so many mouths to feed is not something that is easy to talk about.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the risk of gambling on the horse farm and trying to make money.

Rui Xue's idea is really fine in the long run, and it does not conflict with the goal they are pursuing.

They old guys, there is no reason to refuse or refute the truth.

It's not easy to say the subtleties to make Rui Xue annoyed, if you can't understand such a trivial matter, wouldn't you have lived such a long time in vain.

In Lao Qian's heart, Rui Xue only needs to grasp the general direction and lead them forward.

After all, she is still just a child who has just reached the end of her life, and all the responsibility should not be put on her.

This is what they promised to the dead Li Ningshuang to protect the peace and joy of her two children.

Now that everything is on the right track, some small deviations are not worth Rui Xuehua's attention at all.

Seeing Ruixue's self-blame and lost look, Lao Qian was extremely distressed.

"Miss, what are you doing, it's obvious that we old guys are not doing well, so that there are some small problems in the turnover, how can Miss take it on her head. There is no better child than Miss, and you must not look down on yourself. ”

Rui Xue sighed, she had thought too highly of herself before, so she would make so many inexplicable situations.

Some of the people around her spoiled her too much, making her proud in praise.

Without the caution and caution at the beginning, she always felt that with her intelligence, everything could go smoothly.

"Qian Lao doesn't need to comfort me, I know very well in my heart that I don't have the ability to deal with these situations now, it's because I have experienced too little, and I take it for granted when I come up with ideas, and I haven't thought about the problems that will arise. You are also affected, the things in Beique are like this, and the things in Eighteen Mile Pu are the same. ”

After reflection, Rui Xue felt much more comfortable, it was not terrible to make mistakes, and it was scary to know that mistakes were not changed.

He let out a long breath, and then said: "Old Qian, don't be too used to me in the future, just say what you should say, scold when you scold, otherwise I won't learn anything, and that's it for the rest of my life." ”

Lao Qian was very pleased, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with Ruixue, and he had nothing to teach her.

Watching Ruixue grow up happily, he felt satisfied, which was probably the wish of other old fellows.

Gently patted Rui Xue's shoulder, they old guys, they have to work harder.
