What's more, he has lived a good life for a few years, and he has not forgotten the hard times in the Tao family in the past.

Imagine, if the Tao family, which he worked so hard to support, was washed away by a flood, and the little food he had, the 169 copper plates he had saved with great difficulty, were all gone, then he really wanted to die.

After thinking about it, he asked, "Can we donate food and clothing to the people in the disaster area?" ”

“…… Don't do it for the time being, let's not get out of this limelight. ”

Li Qiao shook her head.

He is a small five-grade official, if he donates, will other officials donate?

If other officials followed suit, the eighty percent would have put the account on his head.

"Is this also a showmanship?" Tao Zhu's mouth pursed, and his eyebrows were twisted.

"yes, who made us not ordinary people now."

Li Qiao said and patted him lightly on the back: "Don't think about these things, it will only increase your troubles." What did you do today? ”

“…… Today, I accompanied Xiao Rui to play pulley at home. ”

Tao Zhu's voice was very small, and after finishing speaking, he couldn't help but bury his cheek in Li Qiao's neck socket.

The people in the disaster area are suffering, he has been playing the pulley for a long time today, and the joys and sorrows are too great, and he is embarrassed to talk to Li Qiaoti at this time.

Li Qiao understood his thoughts, smiled and patted him on the back again: "This world is full of suffering, if we keep our eyes on suffering, then we won't be able to live this life." ”

"You play yours, we have our own days to live."

"Hmm......" Tao Zhu responded as thin as a mosquito, his mouth was still pursed, and after hesitating for a while, he still couldn't help but say: "We really shouldn't be in the limelight, so can you find the saint and quietly donate food and clothing?" ”

"No, the movement of food and clothing is too big, why don't you donate silver tickets directly, this movement is small. We don't need the Holy One to publicly praise us, so you can quietly hand over the silver ticket to the Holy One, how about it? ”

Li Qiao: "......"

"How's it going?"

Tao Zhu saw that he didn't answer, so he urged.

"Tomorrow I'll ask the Holy One." Li Qiao immediately said.

This act ...... It's silly.

It's really silly.

This world is Shenghong's, and it is not their husband's, they don't have to do good deeds and have to be like thieves.

But this kind of Tao Zhu made him soft-hearted and made him want to hug him well.

His bamboo brother is too kind.

In the afternoon of the next day, Li Qiao entered the palace to see Sheng Hong.

After becoming a five-grade official, if he wants to enter the palace to see Sheng Hong, he can hand the sign up, if Sheng Hong is willing to see him, then he can see Sheng Hong.

Sheng Hong is a resolute person, and last night he issued a holy decree to let the three princes and the five princes set off overnight to the disaster area to preside over the local disaster relief work.

Sheng Hong's will was beyond everyone's expectations, and no one expected him to send out the two princes.

The third prince and the fifth prince didn't expect it, but the holy decree had been issued, so they hurriedly packed their luggage and rushed to the disaster area with light bags.

In addition to the two of them, Sheng Hong also sent four ministers to accompany him, one of whom was also a cabinet scholar.

Li Qiao is quite satisfied with this list, even if the third prince and the fifth prince are unreliable, but with these four ministers, there should be no chaos in the disaster area.

The Hall of Virtue.

"Li Aiqing, why are you here today?"

Sheng Hong was looking at the excerpts, and he raised his eyelids as he said and glanced at Li Qiao.

"Shengshang, Wechen went home from duty yesterday, and talked to Fulang about the people affected by the disaster, Fulang He couldn't bear the suffering of the people in the disaster area, and wanted to donate some silver, but he didn't want to make a noise, so Weichen came to see the Sheng, and wanted to donate quietly."

"Oh?" Sheng Hong was very surprised when he heard this, he put down the fold in his hand, looked at Li Qiao for a few seconds, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Your husband wants to donate, then do you want to donate?" ”

"I am willing to donate. It's just that Weichen has a lot of concerns, and he didn't export it yesterday. Li Qiao replied honestly.

As a modern person, when I encounter this kind of thing, the first reaction in my mind is donation.

But he can't donate as much as he pleases now.

"You want to do something practical for the people, but you have a lot of concerns, and that's actually my fault. In the future, whatever you think in your heart, even if you say it, this palace of seeking merit will not say that it is solid, but it can still be kept secret for you. ”

Sheng Hong said and laughed: "Li Aiqing, how much silver do you husband plan to donate to the people in the disaster area?" ”

What kind of shit luck did he take, this imperial examination actually singled out Li Aiqing's husband.

Ridgepole.

A true pillar of Dasheng!

That's exactly what he needs!

Li Qiao: "......"

Can it really be kept secret?

But since he came, he didn't consider it if he kept it secret or not.

Looking at the smile on Sheng Hong's face, he was silent for a second, and then said: "Mrs. Weichen is willing to donate the proceeds of the noodles last year, a total of 220,000 taels of silver." ”

This is the result of a night of discussion between him and Tao Zhu.

Since he has made such a foolish act as a quiet donation, the tens of thousands of taels are too little to take it, after all, even 220,000 taels can't actually do anything.

It is better to donate more, firstly, to help more people, and secondly, to leave a deep impression on Shenghong.

Since the money has been spent, it can't really only help people without thinking about him and Tao Zhu.

With Sheng Hong's person, he will definitely not take this silver in vain.

Li Qiao's words fell, and Sheng Hong couldn't help but take a picture of the royal case.

Mrs. Li Aiqing is atmospheric!

The number was much higher than he had imagined.

He thought that Li Aiqing's husband could donate 50,000 taels of silver, but who knew that it would be 220,000 taels of silver!

If the two hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver were divided equally among all the victims, each of them would receive two hundred and twenty cents.

Not a lot, it's really a lot.

And if you use it to buy food, you can buy a lot of food.

"Li Aiqing, I thank you husband for the people in the disaster area, you can rest assured, I will definitely spend all this money on the people in the disaster area, and I will never let anyone be greedy for ink."

He promised Li Qiao with a serious face.

"You have a good relationship with Lao Qi, so let's let Lao Qi take your money to the disaster area in person, how about it?"

"The Holy Lord is in charge, the Seven Princes are in charge, and the Wechen can rest assured."

Li Qiao said busily.

Now he was really relieved.

The Seven Princes are not afraid of the three princes and the five princes, and they are still jealous and hateful, if these two princes want to make trouble, the Seven Princes will definitely not let these two princes get their wish.

Before the Seventh Prince left, he specially came to say goodbye to Li Qiao and Tao Zhu.

Rarely, a smile appeared on his face.

He also found someone to donate some silver, and scraped together enough 300,000 taels.

Although he is a prince, in terms of his ability to earn money and his family's savings, he is definitely not as good as Li Qiao.

Dasheng can have Li Qiao Taozhu as a husband, it's really good.

Exceptional, exceptional.

It's just that how can this husband and wife have a friend like Meng Yue?

Headache.

If it weren't for the husband's face, he would have clicked that idiot a long time ago.

He did have to go to Beijing to change his mind.

He's going to calm down.

Chapter 132 Li Xia got married, and people from Sanliu Village were full of trivia

After the Seventh Prince, the Third Prince, and the Fifth Princes went south one after another, public opinion in the capital about this heavy rainstorm calmed down a lot.

The days of the Shengjing people have passed.

Li Qiao and Tao Zhu are naturally the same, with the arrival of summer, the hot drinks in the duck shop are replaced by cold drinks, and the rest is the same.

Whether it is duck goods or dim sum, it is not affected by the season, and business is still booming.

This kind of popularity, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu have become accustomed to it, and almost every day someone urges them to expand their stores and supply more.

Especially at the duck shop, even Li Qiao's colleagues would look for him, saying that the business at the duck shop was too good for their family to buy, and they wanted Li Qiao to stock up on more goods.

For this situation, Li Qiao has only one answer: he does his best.

But in fact, since Tao Zhu was pregnant, he has never taken care of the shop, and he and Tao Zhu are not short of money, so why bother to buy people.

But now, after this flood, Tao Zhu wants to expand the store and increase the number of people.

"I originally thought that we had too much silver to spend in this life, but who knew that in this flood, we donated 220,000 taels of silver, which is 30% of our savings, but it is a drop in the bucket, and it is evenly distributed to the victims, each person can only get 220 wen, what can this money do? If you buy sweet potatoes, you can only buy 110 catties. ”

"The crops that have been destroyed, the houses that need to be rebuilt, how can we have enough money with this little money?"

In the evening, sitting under the candle, Tao Zhu looked through the account book of this month, looking at the profits on it, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

That's too little.

In fact, he and Li Qiao are not rich.

Li Qiao sat beside Tao Zhu, holding a big pu fan in his hand, fanning the two of them together.
