Yun Luochuan and Shen Wan were both worried about Mrs. Yun and wanted to stay with her, but she said she was fine and asked them to go about their own business, leaving only Ah Xin and her great-grandson around to talk.
After asking some details about that year, Ah Xin naturally told me everything he knew.
Mrs. Yun was moved by her husband's feelings for her, and at the same time she was a little resentful that he hid it from her.
The next day, Mrs. Yun arranged a carriage to take Axin and her great-grandson home.
After the carriage left the city, Ah Xin heard many people talking outside.
So I lifted the car curtain and looked outside, I saw a lot of people gathered on the roadside, and I vaguely heard someone saying, "Dead."
"My body is stiff."
"Maybe he's been dead for a long time."
"I'm so old, it's time."
Ah Xin thought that an old man should have entered the city, but suddenly the time came and he died on the roadside.
She felt that it was better for this man to grow old like this, at least he would not suffer any pain before his death.
"Great-grandmother, what's going on outside?" The great-grandson's daughter stretched her neck and looked outside curiously.
Ah Xin lowered the car curtains and said to his great-grandson, "It's nothing."
In the past two days, Shen Wan was also busy selecting a location for the rescue and reception center. Because there was no suitable house that could be purchased to serve as a rescue and reception center, she could only build a reception center like an academy.
Magistrate Ji didn't know where he learned that she wanted to buy land for a rescue and shelter center. He thought it was a good thing and as a parent, he should give her full support, so he approved an unowned land outside the city for her. She came to build this rescue and shelter center.
The land is backed by green hills and only a quarter of an hour's walk from the city gate, which is very suitable.
Shen Wan took people to measure the land, and then worked with Yun Luochuan to draw a drawing of the rescue and reception center.
The houses are all built into three-story wooden buildings, which are divided into public areas, temporary shelter areas, living areas for lonely elderly people, and living areas for women and children.
Each area has one building and a relatively spacious courtyard for people to move around.
After the drawings were drawn, we waited until the 15th day to start construction.
Although construction has not started yet, the news has spread.
Everyone says that the county owner is kind-hearted. With this shelter, these lonely elderly people and orphans will have someone to take care of them and have a place to live, so they will not be so pitiful and miserable.
Because the news spread, Shen Wan also made people announce that their rescue and shelter center in Jiangzhou City had received a donation of 100,000 taels of silver from Prince Yun.
Although Shen Wan didn't say it, the people of Jiangzhou City also guessed that the one hundred thousand taels of silver should be the reward of ten thousand taels of silver offered by the county lord.
The county lord's son was able to be rescued unscathed, thanks to Prince Yun. Prince Yun was also an official. He helped the county lord rescue his son, so how could he collect money?
So the county head donated the 100,000 taels of silver to the rescue and shelter center in the name of Prince Yun. This must be the case.
On October 16th, construction of the rescue and shelter center began.
And the people of Yun and Chen's family are even busier, because in more than twenty days, the two families will have a wedding.
Mrs. Yun, Mrs. Wu and Yun Changfeng spent two days compiling a list of wedding invitations. The list was six feet long.
Mrs. Yun and the others did not let Yun Luochuan go to Shen's house to meet Shen Wan because there was a custom in Jiangzhou City that they could not meet each other within thirty days before marriage. Although the two made an exception and had already met within thirty days. , but no exceptions can be made in the future.
The task of writing wedding invitations was left to Yun Luochuan. It would be more meaningful to write your own wedding invitations yourself.
After the invitations were written, they were sent out one after another.
Yun Luochuan's uncle Wu Qingliu also received the invitation. Although he looked down upon the Yun family and Yun Luochuan's nephew, this wife-suppressing nephew was finally getting married. As an uncle, he naturally wanted to bring him along.
