Chapter 275
Qiu Yongkang asked everyone to line up. Qu Da and Jiang Cheng took the sheep out according to Qiu Yongkang's head. The food was weighed and distributed among everyone, and they even helped send the food home if they couldn't move it.

Everyone was even more excited when the money was distributed. After living in Taohuawu for so many years, who had a huge sum of ten taels of silver?

Qiu Yongkang was too busy on his own, so Xing Ruhai came to help, and the two cooperated much faster.

Ji Shuisheng looked at the happy faces of the villagers, and said to his adoptive father in his heart:
"Father, your child has fulfilled your old man's last wish. He has brought everyone to a safe place and let them live and work in peace."

"Shuisheng, thank you."

Li Shuang'er's parents came to thank Ji Shuisheng. Their family had many adults, and they shared six fat sheep, and there was no shortage of food. They were very grateful to Ji Shuisheng.

"You're welcome."

Ji Shuisheng smiled and shook his head. Although he didn't want everyone to thank him for doing this, he still felt that his efforts were not in vain and the villagers were worth helping.

After Lao Li's family came to thank him, other families also came to thank him.

But there are also people who are not happy. The father and son of the old Wang family died on the way to flee the famine, leaving the old mother, two daughters-in-law and four little children. They only got three sheep. If the man in the family didn't die because of protecting everyone, then it would be okay Are there three more sheep?

The eldest daughter-in-law of the old Wang's family bravely came to Ji Shuisheng, complaining to Ji Shuisheng with snot and tears.

"Shuisheng, all the strong men in our family died on the road, leaving orphans, widows, mothers, old, weak, sick and disabled, and only three sheep. There is a mother-in-law to raise them, and there are four babies waiting to be fed below. Our family is really struggling. what!"

As soon as she started like this, those who died on the road all came to look for Ji Shuisheng, and they all wiped their tears, looking very pitiful.

"Yongkang, how many people died on the road?"

Ji Shuisheng didn't expect someone to make such an opinion, so he asked Qiu Yongkang.

"A total of 13 people died."

Old Wang's family was the worst. All three strong men died, leaving orphans and widows. The oldest of the four children was only ten years old, and the youngest was only three years old. It was really pitiful.

Besides, those who died were all sacrificed to protect the villagers of Taohuawu, and it stands to reason that they should also take care of their families.

"How about this, the dead are counted as heads and sheep, but the food cannot be divided."

Ji Shuisheng thought about it and decided, anyway, it's just this time, try to satisfy everyone.

Hearing what Ji Shuisheng said, those who lost their relatives were also very grateful to him. The old Wang's family wept with joy for having three more sheep, and the whole family came to thank Ji Shuisheng.

"Have a good time!"

Ji Shuisheng stopped them from thanking them, and his heart was heavy.

After distributing to the villagers, Ji Shuisheng distributed two sheep, four loads of grain and ten taels of silver to Xing Ruhai's family.

"Shuisheng, thank you."

Xing Ruhai didn't expect that his family was not a villager in Taohuawu, and Shuisheng gave them the same amount of things. His eyes were red with emotion, and he secretly vowed to help Ji Shuisheng well.

"Sir, you can live here with peace of mind, and you will need to worry more about it in the future."

Ji Shuisheng didn't say clearly that Xing Ruhai will be of great use in the future, he is a rare talent.

"Despite the young master's orders, Xing is willing to devote himself to follow the young master."

Xing Ruhai clasped his fists and said to Ji Shuisheng solemnly that this is his promise. Ji Shuisheng is kind-hearted, courageous and resourceful, and what he wants to do will definitely come true.

Surrender starts with worship!

Xing Ruhai admired Ji Shuisheng very much. In this troubled world, he brought the villagers safely to the frontier, risked his life, and led his men to repel the Tatar soldiers' attacks many times, giving the common people a home to live and work in peace.

Ji Shuisheng smiled and said:
"In the future, you will inevitably be troubled by your husband. For the time being, you can help Uncle Cheng's army with daily affairs, right?"

"it is good."

Xing Ruhai was very happy to hear that Ji Shuisheng had arranged work for him. It would be too uncomfortable for busy people to be idle, and would feel like a burden. Now that he can help Shuisheng with some work, he feels useful.

After the assignment was over, Ji Shuisheng returned to the inner courtyard of the mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he could smell the smell of stewed meat, and saw Su Qing taking the braised pork out of the pot to prepare for cooking.

"smell good."

Ji Shuisheng looked at Su Qing with a smile, his voice full of happiness.

"The queen didn't let you have a meal?"

Su Qing had heard Xiaoying say that Ji Shuisheng came back and said that he was distributing things to the villagers in the front yard. Seeing him coming back, Su Qing asked with a smile, wondering if the Queen knew that her gold and ganoderma were lost?
"There seems to be something missing in the queen's palace? No time to entertain."

Ji Shuisheng rolled up his sleeves to wash his face, and said something casually when he heard Su Qing's question.

Looks like the queen found the gold missing?

Su Qing raised her eyebrows, she lost the gold without anyone noticing it, the queen must have been panicked, and there was a bloody storm inside and outside the palace after a thorough investigation, so that's fine, she had no time to attack Mocheng because she was concerned about putting out the fire in her own house.

This is also one of her purposes for taking away the queen's gold, so that her vitality will be greatly weakened, and she will be suspicious, so as to disrupt her ambitions.

"I'll treat Brother Yang to dinner to see him off at night, so go and treat him!"

Su Qing said to Ji Shuisheng, Ji Shuisheng took the cloth towel handed over by his sister and wiped off the water on his face, promised to go out and ask Yang to take his head.

Ji Shuisheng went to ask Yang for his head, and Su Qing also fried the stir-fried pork belly. The aroma is really attractive, and there is one last piece of fat sausage left to start dinner.

The pork knuckles stewed at Qiu's and Li's houses were also brought over, and the two big pig's heads were so fragrant and rotten that they were all boneless.

Su Qing first cut two plates of pork head meat, two plates of elbow meat, broke off all the pig's trotters and put them in two large plates, and made the dipping sauce by himself, just dip it in and eat it later.

The braised pork was to be distributed to the whole village and all the soldiers, so she only served two bowls in the house to entertain Yang Zhi. In addition, there were fat sausages, bitter sausages, and stir-fried pork belly. A good dish to accompany wine.

It's a pity that the soybeans are gone, otherwise Su Qing would start making soy sauce right away, which would be a huge business opportunity. At present, there is no such condiment as soy sauce in Daxia and Tantan, so it will definitely make a lot of money.

Su Qing made the meat thick and asked Xiao Ying to call the villagers to come and share the meat. Each villager sent a person over, and each family shared a spoonful of braised pork. The two pots of meat seemed to be quite a lot, but they couldn't stand too many people, but they were enough to eat It's impossible, everyone can enjoy it.

After distributing the remaining braised pork and pork head meat to the villagers, they gave them to the soldiers defending the city. Although each person could not get a few pieces of meat, everyone was very satisfied with what they ate, which can be regarded as a bit of oil and water.

In the past, the imperial court did not pay military salaries, and they also went hunting by themselves. The prey they hunted would only be roasted and eaten. How could Su Qing's meat be delicious?After eating with gusto, the mouth is still fragrant.

Treat guests with good wine, Mocheng doesn't sell them anymore, but Ji Shuisheng brought back two jars from Tartan, just in case.

Su Qing was afraid that the queen would be uneasy and kindly poisoned the wine, so she checked it with a silver needle first.
