Chapter 546: Remembering the father who helped the world (36)
Author: Xuanyuan Steel
Yu Guang didn't even bother to open his eyes: "How many people have you helped today?"
I don’t know how the two elders of the Yu family educated Yu Hua. Yu Hua was very obsessed with doing good deeds.
Now that I have money in my pocket and my peripheral vision is not focused on him, I naturally run around without seeing anyone.
Hearing Yu Guang's inquiry, Yu Hua happily stuffed two pears into Yu Guang's arms: "Ah!"
Today he saw an old woman who was feeling unwell, so he bought a cart to take her back. In order to repay him, the old woman specially gave him some pears.
The rest of the pears were distributed to the men pulling the cart, but these two pears were specially left by him for his daughter.
The parents said that such a return gift contained a lot of blessings, so it was natural for them to give good things to their precious daughter.
Yu Guang put the pear on the table expressionlessly: "You don't have to compete with the people in the capital. People who can live under the emperor's feet will find it easier to make money than elsewhere."
Yu Hua seemed to have listened to Yu Guang's words. He put away his playful thoughts, sat obediently next to Yu Guang, and listened carefully to Yu Guang's advice.
Yu Guangze continued: "It's easy to have one meal, ten meals, or a hundred meals. It's rare to make the world full. This is an eternal problem. I don't object to you doing good deeds, but the problem is this
How to do good deeds."
Yu Hua listened carefully and nodded to Yu Guang from time to time. What her daughter said made sense.
Yu Hua's cooperative appearance made Yu Guang's voice deepen: "It's not a long-term solution for you to go out and give out food and porridge, but it can easily have the opposite effect, especially in a place like the capital.
If a healthy person can eat every day without having to do anything, do you think he will still think about working over time?"
Yu Hua glanced at Yu Guang's expression from the corner of his eyes. He nodded tentatively at first, and when he saw Yu Guang's pursed lips, he shook his head wildly: No, absolutely not.
Yu Guang didn't even bother to look at him: "A long period of charity will only breed lazy people in the end, and may even cripple people who originally worked hard to live."
Yu Hua's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he didn't even realize that Yu Guang was preaching to him.
Instead, he kept giving thumbs up in his peripheral vision.
Yu Guang adjusted his posture: "If dad really wants to do good things, he might as well do some practical things like building bridges and paving roads.
The Queen Mother is generous, and our monthly allowance is quite generous, so we can fully repair the roads leading from Kyoto to various cities.
There are disaster victims everywhere in Daxing, and only a few copper coins can make a strong laborer do a day's work.
When men build roads and women cook, dad can find a few appropriate stewards to follow and check on the situation. With mutual checks and balances, there is no need to worry about being embezzled."
Yu Hua's head clicked so fast that Yu Guang was a little worried whether Yu Hua would throw out what he just heard: "Although daddy initiated this matter, it is best to name the Queen Mother, so just say
It is the Queen Mother of the Imperial Prefecture who is responsible for handling this matter."
This kind of reputation-building thing should be avoided.
Seeing that Yu Hua was still nodding, he looked at Wu Yi, who was mainly responsible for Yu Hua's safety, from the corner of his eye: "I believe you all understand what I mean."
Wu Yi bowed his hands to Yu Guang and saluted: "I humbly thank the National Master for his righteousness on behalf of the refugees."
Not everyone is born with a silver spoon in their mouth. When he was a child, he spent a period of time wandering around with his sister.
The narrow official road, the tangled weeds on both sides of the official road, the sister who was too hungry to even cry, the worn toes, and the numb expressions of everyone, as if they could never see their future.
It's not that they don't want to work, but everyone's life is tight, and there are so many refugees, who would trust their family's work to someone they don't know.
As a result, fewer and fewer of them left.
He still remembered the scene when his sister lay in his arms and let him eat her.
His sister kept urging him to go to the capital. As long as he went to the capital, he would never be hungry again.
The past events are vivid in our minds, and only those who have experienced them know how important what the National Master is going to do now.
Looking at Wu Yi's red eyes, he showed a gentle smile from the corner of his eye: "Once the road construction begins, it will inevitably continue, but there are many benefits. The refugees can eat, drink and sleep, which can bring a lot of benefits
additional value."
The food you eat, the utensils you use, the clothes you wear, any business that costs money can earn you some dividends.
At least it won't be like now, like a puddle of stagnant water.
Since Yu Hua likes to be the savior, then let's go big, since they have nowhere to spend the money anyway.
08: "." Host, you really think about your small business all the time.
Seeing Yu Guang talking about the future in a clear and logical manner, it was clear that he had already made up his mind, and Wu Yi's respect for Yu Guang deepened in his heart.
The Imperial Master and the Master are really good people.
Within an hour, the Queen Mother received the news that Yu Guang was preparing to build the road.
I heard Yu Guang say that the court should not allocate extra money, and even attribute the credit to himself.
The Queen Mother crossed the Buddhist beads in her hand and said, "He is indeed a wonderful person."
With this nature of her mind, she really likes it.
If there weren't too many mysteries about this girl, if such a woman were chosen to enter the palace, she would definitely be able to take over his position in the future, so that the emperor would have no worries.
It's a pity that there are no ifs and ifs in the world.
The Empress Dowager sighed while continuing to choose a woman for her son.
I helped two emperors select concubines in a row, and I hope I don’t have to help my grandson select concubines in the future.
Yu Pingting has been living in quite a miserable state recently. She never knew that escaping was so difficult.
In the past, when she was at home, she would cry and complain that her feet hurt even after taking a few steps.
Every time at this time, her mother would softly comfort her and at the same time beat the servants who caused her to reach her sore feet.
If you feel you are still angry, you may even sell the person directly.
But now, her feet were so painful that she couldn't speak, but no one cared about her.
It can't be said that everyone doesn't care about her. Just this morning, there were two men surrounding her, trying to take advantage of her.
If she hadn't resisted like crazy, someone would have taken advantage of her now, and she would be truly shameless by then.
However, this incident also made Yu Pingting become more careful. Before she got home, the silk and satin on her body were all a burden.
It's just that this road home is too long, and she doesn't know when it will end.
Two months passed in an instant, and Prince Ming's departure did not seem to cause any splash in the capital.
The days are still going on, and although they are not getting better, they are not too bad either.
It's just that in recent times, the wind direction in Beijing has begun to change.
First of all, the most obvious change is that the emperor's health seems to be getting better and better. Not only has a group of new maidens been selected to enter the palace, but in the past two months, news of the maiden's pregnancy has also been reported.
