Chapter 1798
Sometimes she was thinking how good it would be if she couldn't hear the sound of rain after this awakening. It was a pity that she listened to the rain all night, and when she woke up the next day, she still clearly heard the sound of rain outside.
She sat up, ran over, jumped onto the collapse, ran to her hand and squatted, letting the master touch it.
Shen Qingci touched its little head, and then asked Bai Mei to fetch water to wash.
"After a while, you go to my elder sister's house and ask me if there is enough food in my elder sister's house, so that they can prepare more food." The food in King Shuo's house is enough, but if the harvest is really not good this year, I will mostly collect some food so that the whole family can eat it, and I can also take it out to help those poor people.
After all, at that time, it would be difficult for Prince Jun’s Mansion to get food from her. If someone knows this, it is inevitable that he will be criticized.
Bai Mei remembered that after serving her master, she would come here in person, just...
"Madam, do you also need to notify the Duke of the State of Wei?"
This was notified by one family, and if the other family did not inform, it would be that their wife was not generous enough, and if they had no food, they would not have to come to the door at that time.
"You go and notify me."
Shen Qingci hugged Luobai and helped Luobai wipe his claws. Niannian was still asleep in the nest. She walked over and touched Niannian's back. She thought it was sick, but Niannian just fell asleep and was still snoring.
She put the bait down and prepared to go to the incense room to make some spices. The heavy rain outside was not enough, and she just hoped that the rain could stop earlier and gave the people a glimmer of vitality.
But the gray sky outside made her feel that it was really not easy. Even the spices she made seemed to be dull and less bright.
I could still hear the sound of rain outside, and the rain had been going on for more than three days.
Besides, Bai Mei, she did not delay. She rushed to Prince Jun’s mansion in person and told Shen Qingci’s words to Shen Qingrong intact. When Shen Qingrong heard this, she couldn’t help but feel nervous, and even a lot of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
She quickly asked someone to come to Yuwen Xu and his son, and was talking about food.
"Mother, what my aunt said is not without reason." Yu Wen Jin also felt that the rain was not very good. When he returned home, he also heard what the people around him said, afraid that the year will be very bad, and the lack of food incurred may be even more serious than they imagined.
Especially without the supply of new grain, the entire Great Zhou Dynasty may have a shortage of food. Although there are snow vegetables, snow vegetables are not food. Some of them are not easy to starve to death. But if you really owe grain, you may not be enough to eat so many snow vegetables.
There is no grain stored in their mansion. If there is no grain, just go to the rice shop to buy it. Anyway, there is some silver in the mansion, which is the best rice and noodles you buy. Most of the grain collected by the several farms in the mansion were exchanged for silver.
But if it really comes to a shortage of food, even if there is money, sometimes I can’t buy food.
"Jin'er," Shen Qingrong said to his son.
"You go to the mansion to pay some money and collect some food secretly, so you can't let others know. The profiteering businessman won't raise the price of food."
"Is this really good?"
Yu Wenxu still felt a little over it. After all, it is still unknown whether there is a grain shortage now. Although there is heavy rain, perhaps, the grain has been collected, and it is also possible.
If this is the case, then there will be no shortage of food.
"I believe in auntie."
Yuwen Jin believes in Shen Qingci very much.
"Auntie seems to be born from danger."
And over the years, almost everything she said will happen.
"Your aunt is a person who is prepared for danger in times of peace. Shen Qingrong couldn't help but smile. She liked to store things, food, gold, and silver since she was a child."
She felt that what her son said was not without reason. She thought about it and made a decision. Jin'er, you first let someone collect food secretly, and how much can you collect. If there is a shortage of food, we will be prepared for any trouble. Even if there are not, there are so many people in our mansion, plus, you three princesses and aunts, can eat them all. Even if we can't finish it, it doesn't matter. There are still poor people outside, and this kind of food may not be enough for this kind of porridge.
After she finished speaking, she asked Tingdong to take the warehouse key and get the silver.
"Mother, I still have it there."
Yuwen Jin is not short of money now. It can be said that if there are three months here, it means there is a small mountain of gold. Moreover, the money they earn is not included in the public account, and all the money they earn is in their private treasury.
Over the past few years, the two of them have not spent much, and they have saved hundreds of taels of silver.
"First, let's use some public accounts."
Shen Qingrong did not touch the money in her son's private account. She still saved a lot of money, but she couldn't pay much money on weekdays. The people of Yipinxiang had enough money to make a living. It can be said that most of the dividends given by Yipinxiang were saved. They had saved for more than twenty years, and I don't know how much it was, but of course, there were a lot of money. These money were definitely more than enough to collect grain.
Yuwen Jin could not say anything about Shen Qingrong, so he hurriedly paid the money and went to buy grain.
Bai Mei came out of Prince Jun's mansion, and she didn't stop to go to the Duke of Wei's mansion. She really didn't like going to the Duke of Wei's mansion at all.
The current Duke of Wei’s Mansion is no longer the place where she and her wife grew up. Even the yard where the wife used to live was for some time by Lin Yunniang, and it also destroyed the place in a mess. The wife definitely did not, so she went there again.
So, their old lady went there early. If the old lady was still talking, what else would happen to her Lin Yunniang now?
Bai Mei herself knew that even if she was unwilling to go there, she still had to go there in the end and took her wife's words.
"Oh, she's here?"
Lin Yunniang took care of her clothes and was quite satisfied with her newly made clothes.
"Madam, she's still waiting outside."
The old lady on the side also advised Lin Yunniang that no matter what, she was the eldest lady of Princess Shuo. Although she was a servant, she was also a bit of a shame in the capital.
Lin Yunniang sneered.
