Chapter 70
With a sad face, he blamed himself in his heart, "It is indeed irresistible that the houses were flooded by the collapse of the mountain torrents, but the people's homes were destroyed, and the displacement should have been avoided! It is my fault that I did not find out that someone was pocketing in advance. I am ashamed of the big scene, ashamed Your Majesty!"

"Father-in-law, don't blame yourself like this. Someone deliberately deceived your eyes and ears. The relief supplies came from Jiangnan and Jinling, and passed through the hands of countless people. Swapping under surveillance."

Cui Helin nodded, "Now that the imperial court is in the harem, since several princes have their own schemes in adulthood, I don't know if the old man will have a chance to see the day when the new dynasty is stable?"

Jing Shihuan looked at the majestic Miyagi without saying a word.

"Congratulations to my cousin for accepting such an important errand. As expected, my cousin is the most respected by my father."

Jing Da turned his head and looked at the second prince beside him, "Second brother, you said that your cousin is already full of princes, and if you make meritorious deeds next, how should the father reward you?"

"The merits and demerits are determined by the father and the king, so you don't have to worry about it." The second prince Jing Zhuang nodded at the crowd, and strode away with the crowd of courtiers.

Jing Shihuan looked back at Jing Da with a smile on his face, "Brother Zhuang is right, so don't worry about Brother Da."

Jing Da looked at the people who left and flicked their sleeves angrily, his face was no longer gentle, and his face was full of ferocity, "Jingtai! What are you doing!"

The attendant next to him knelt down on the ground tremblingly, and the minister of household department quickly stepped forward and looked around, "My lord, be careful that the wall has ears. Let's go back to the house and discuss it later."

The front door of Cui's mansion was wide open, and the first-class mother beside the mistress was walking back and forth anxiously, looking at the big housekeeper beside her, "Didn't this old Xun send a message that the master is back, why hasn't he arrived..."

"coming."

When Mammy saw her master stepping out of the carriage in full beard, she quickly nodded her head, and her own maid ran to the backyard to deliver the message.

He walked up quickly and bowed his head in blessing, "I have seen the prince, I have seen the master."

Jing Shihuan nodded to him, "Nurse Hua."

"Hey, the lord is safe, the concubine is here too. Madam made ginseng soup for the lord and the lord. The old lady is very worried. How about the two lords go to the backyard with the slaves."

"Ah Nian is back?"

"Go back to the master, the concubine came to the mansion early in the morning and waited."

Cui Helin looked at his son-in-law, "Little girl..."

Jing Shi smiled and shook his head, "I know that father-in-law should not blame Ah Nian, she is also worried about him."

As soon as the few people reached the back door, a group of female relatives in the backyard came out with the old lady.

"Mr. Yang was also born out of the ups and downs of the aristocratic family. Her face was quite stable. She greeted Jing Shihuan with a smile, walked slowly to Cui Helin's side, and gently and firmly supported her master's arm, "Thanks for your hard work!" "

There are dignified and virtuous housewives in the world, but naturally there are also rude and unruly country women.

Looking at the rain outside that didn't decrease at all, Mrs. Wang cleaned up the inside and outside of the house. She was really bored and found an insole to tie it on. Seeing Yu Changyu who was soaked all over, she quickly stood up.

"You are a fool! Ouch! Look at this body, your body can't be compared with others, and this is such a waste, and you can't expect the old lady to piss and shit for you when you lie on the bed in the future."

Mrs. Li quickly took a dry cloth towel and handed it to Yu Youyu.

Wang babbled, but quickly found a long coat and trousers for Yu Youyu, and rudely threw it aside.

With a bad complexion, he ran to the stove to wash the pot and boil water. The pots and pans were crackling, and he cut the onion and ginger and brought them to a boil.

He slammed on the table and looked at Yu Youyu with a sullen face, "Hurry up and give me a drink, I will let the boss and the second brother go to the roof to have a look, my house is almost flooded, and there is nothing wrong with it." See you."

He stared at the old man who had changed his clothes and was sitting aside wiping his hair, "I ran to someone's house to help, but I didn't even get a bowl of ginger soup."

Yu Youyu didn't want to argue with Wang's. Knowing that her mother-in-law had a knife mouth and a bean curd heart, she sat at the table and blew on the boiling ginger soup, and drank it slowly.

Manman lay on the table and looked at her grandpa, then turned her head to look at her grandma, laughing "hehehehe".

Yu Youyu rubbed his granddaughter's head vigorously, "Are you greedy for Grandpa's ginger soup?"

Manman pushed Grandpa's big hand away, pouted, "That's right, I didn't get caught in the rain."

"Grandpa, how is the old lady, have you finished harvesting the rice?"

Yu Youyu was sweating profusely, fanned the wind with a brown fan, and his face was wrinkled, "There is still a small half that has not been recovered, and most of the recovered ones are also stained with rainwater. The houses and eaves of the drying yard Let them dry the rice."

Turning around, he patted the bench with his fan angrily, "I told you all the old ways in the village. The weather is different this year. Take back the food early. Look at these idiots who won't listen!"

"Isn't this a waste of food now, and you are complaining and crying about your father and mother, the second brother is so angry that he scolded several families one by one, but he still can't relieve his anger."

Mrs. Wang grabbed a handful of pumpkin seeds and ate them, "Bah bah" spat out the skins, "It deserves it!"

"You said that our family doesn't have any strong labor force. Every year, we wait for the boss and the second family to finish it before coming to help. It's not so slow." Seeing his daughter-in-law's disapproving expression, "Okay, let's not talk about our family, you Look at Fatty Yu's house, the old couple and the boy are both lazy, but the sixth younger sister works from dawn to dusk, and the rice is harvested before it rains."

"I don't even know why those families with a dozen or so people can't collect this little food."

Yu Youyu nodded, "That's why the second brother is really angry." Looking at the sky outside, "Fortunately, the sweet potatoes have taken root, no matter how poorly planted, they can harvest a few stones during the cold dew, so you don't have to go hungry next year , It’s a pity that the soaked rice.”

Yu Youyu looked at Li Shi who was rubbing corn beside him, "If those old ladies and uncles in the village come to exchange food, you can exchange some, but don't worry about those lazy people."

Mrs. Wang pursed her lips, "As long as you are a good person, the husks of rice soaked in water can't be ground off, and pigs don't like to eat them even if they are boiled."

"The third child~the third child~"

Yu Youyu lifted his buttocks and hurried out, "Second brother, why are you here?"

"Don't come out, the clothes you just changed, I'll tell you when I come, come in." Yu Youguang scraped off his sandals on the steps of the veranda, and went into the house to take the hot soup served by Wang, "Thank you brother and sister .”

He lowered his head and moved closer to Yu Youyu's side, "I keep the food at home, don't sell it this year. I heard that several big cities in the west were flooded by the muddy river, and the food shortage is very serious now!"

"What!" Wang looked at Yu Youguang with a look of fear.

Yu Youyu glared at Mrs. Wang, "Second brother, is this true? The Holy Mountain will always remind all dynasties and tribes of this kind of catastrophe in advance."

Yu Youguang looked at his third younger brother's suspicious eyes, and nodded with certainty, "It's absolutely true! You also know that my family, Yu Cheng, is in charge of the grain store, and now the dynasty is dispatching grain to various places for disaster relief."
