The old man picked up the cow tendon that had been softened and started to tear it into pieces. Xie Pi also took some to help him.

"What did the cabinet say, but you saw your father?"

"I heard that my father has been in the palace these days, so it's not easy to disturb him."

"It seems to be much more serious than I thought." The old man sighed.

After a moment of silence, he said, "There are still some food stored in the nearby farms. You can turn around and transfer it to the yamen in person, and send a few people to watch it. Be sure to send it to the disaster area."

Xie Pi responded respectfully, it was obviously not the first time that the old man had such a thing.

I have heard of Mr. Cui’s deeds since I was a child. The reason why I admire others is not just because he is the imperial teacher, but more because of his heart for the country and the people.

Without disturbing the old man, he left after he finished talking about the matter. Before leaving, he saw him hiding in the house and lit up the candlelight in the house.

On the other side, Cui Jiuzhen took his maids and Jinyiwei to deal with river clams, fish, shrimps and other things.

"Why did you do so much? You won't have eaten these days!"

Cui Jiuzhen was asking them to hammer the river clams. If the hammer was not soft, it would not burn it back.

The few people naturally used their strength to work hard.

"The old man said that we can eat the mountains and the sea by relying on the mountains. When we come to the mountains, we will find food by ourselves to save some other things for refugees to eat."

The prince said, washing the beans soaked the day before with Liu Jin and preparing to grind the tofu.

This was the old man's order. Liu Jin, who was most afraid of him, naturally did not dare to delay.

Cui Jiuzhen paused slightly when she heard this, and after a moment, she nodded: "Grandfather said it well."

While everyone was busy, the fish and shrimp were processed. Due to the different types of fish, some skewed soup and some braised and steamed.

As for the river clams, Cui Jiuzhen roasted some of them with ingredients, and the others were braised.

In the evening, a seductive fragrance overflowed from the kitchen, and the cats in Zhuangzi were so greedy that they were meowing with their paws.

After cooking, she came to the millstone again and saw Liu Jin grinding beans skillfully. The prince added water and beans. She chuckled, "The skills are good, and the grinding is very fine!"

When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately raised his chin, "Our family is not someone else. He is thick-handed and can't even push the millstone."

He was born into a poor family and actually did a lot of farm work when he was young.

Cui Jiuzhen was in a bad mood, so she scooped up soy milk and said, "This pulp is beautiful, and it will definitely taste good after making the tofu."

"The old man also said that he would cook soy milk for the orphans!" said the prince.

“Everything is done, so much, enough.”

When we had dinner at night, the third wife and others were there, and Cui Jiuzhen obviously found that they had saved a lot.

In addition to the river food I made today, there are some vegetarian dishes on the table.

If she hadn't eaten pasta, she would have saved even rice.

During the meal, everyone did not speak. After using the meal, the old man said, "We have to work harder these days. The disaster in the south has not been resolved. We should not be too extravagant. We should pay for whatever we want to eat and use in the future."

The third wife and Xu glanced at each other and replied, "What you said is that we have everything here, but we can't use much."

"Yes, I have several farms in there, and the harvest is good. I heard that you sent someone to transport supplies to the disaster area. Why would you also help me with that?"

"Oh?" The old man looked at Xu, "It's rare that you have this kind of heart. I will write a memorial and submit it to the government and ask the government to send someone to accept it."

This means that the credit was borne by her own burden. It is conceivable that there is probably no noble lady in Beijing like her.

This incident also made the old man have an idea.

Immediately, he went to the study room, wrote a memorial, and sent someone to send him back to the capital overnight.

The next day, in the West Pavilion, the emperor looked at the note in front of him and felt warm in his heart.

Even if his teacher left the court, he still thought about him everywhere.

When Xie Qian came over, he calmed his expression and smiled and said, "Xie Qing has a good virtuous support!"

Xie Qian didn't understand why, "The Lord means..."

The emperor asked Dai Yi to give him the memorial, but Xie Qian took it. After reading it, he felt complicated and unspeakable.

"She is the first one in Beijing and can be an example for women. I have decided to give her a plaque of kindness and kindness as a reward."

When Xie Qian heard this, he hurriedly thanked him.

"I thank the emperor for his grace!"

In fact, he was a little dizzy, but the emperor was obviously in a good mood and showed his first smile in recent days. Xie Qian also breathed a sigh of relief.

When the plaque given by the emperor was sent to Xie’s Mansion, the incident spread throughout the capital.

The Xie family specially opened a main hall to enshrine this plaque, so Mrs. Xie rushed back and presided over it herself.

Such an honor made other destiny women in Beijing look at each other and began to imitate for a while, and even thought of comparing who is more and who is less.

Not only that, even the ministers began.

Soon, the disaster relief payment was collected, and there were even some other supplies, whether it was food or use.

It also made the court feel relieved.

The emperor's hand was really unexpected, and some people smelled a familiar smell.

"Cui Xingting!"

Another day after the court came, Li Dongyang, the chief assistant of the cabinet, sighed.

Seeing that the major event was set, the emperor was much more relaxed, but before he could send a letter to ask the teacher and the prince, he heard the Jinyiwei report on Zhang's assassination.

Who did this? Don’t even think about it, the emperor’s rare good mood has also changed.

He was indeed too laissez-faire about the Zhang family, so they didn't take his words seriously at all.

So, within two days, Dai Yi, the eunuch beside the emperor, appeared in front of the Shouning Hou and brought an imperial edict to ask the Zhang family to donate the disaster money.

This donation almost emptied half of the Zhang family's family's assets, which made Shouning Hou feel very distressed.

Dai Yi smiled and looked at the people below to carry boxes of things away. He said to Zhang Heling, "Mr. Marquis, don't blame our family for being talkative. Although the emperor favors the Zhang family, it is most taboo to interfere in politics with foreign relatives. Marquis should consider the Empress in the Palace and the Crown Prince."

Others don't know, but he knows it clearly. The two brothers of the Zhang family no longer know how much trouble the queen had caused or how much hindrance they had.

That is, the emperor now has only one wife who loves the house and is pampering the Zhang family.

If it were someone else, the Zhang family would no longer exist.

After knocking, Dai Yi shook the whisk and left, but Zhang Heling broke out in cold sweat.

But if you want to suppress the Zhang family, how can you interfere in politics?

Zhang Heling was unwilling to accept it, but now he could only swallow his breath and just planned to go back to the palace to complain to his sister.

...

In July, the sky was still hot and hot. It was sent back to Xu before, and a group of people were missing in the village.

Cui Jiuzhen took care of the things on the farm, fruits and so on, and sent them to Xie's house in batches, and sent them to the other houses, and gave them the rest to the houses they had with him.

Cui Yunying held her chin bored and watched her fiddle with her abacus and bookkeeping, yawned and said, "Don't we go back in a few days? We can also manage what we do and leave it to the manager of the village."

"Then you have to sort out the accounts! Otherwise, I will be the one who is suffering from it." Cui Jiuzhen said, finishing the last bit.

She stretched and finally could rest.

"Miss." Ruyun came in with tea, blessed the two of them, and said, "The news came from the Xie family that the third master's marriage has been decided, so that you and your son-in-law will go back when you have time."

"Um?"

Cui Jiuzhen was surprised, "Didn't my mother just go back? Why did she make the decision so quickly?"
