"What? Borrowing food?"

Mrs. Guan shook her head when she heard Guan Yaoqing mention Ouyang Kang's intentions, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no." The Queen Mother just sent a message to the families of the imperial order, specifically praising a few families for their good porridge donation. Everyone should learn from them, and I am still thinking about how to do this porridge donation well, where can I lend them surplus food?"

Guan Yaoqing was in a hurry, so he simply explained the matter and said, "His family is almost cornered by the Queen Mother, mother, why can't you help them first?"

Mrs. Guan shot him a look, "Since the queen mother deliberately made things difficult, then she can't help. If it comes to investigation, how many brains will your father be able to bear?"

Guan Gongzi became angry, "Why can't I bear it? Don't you always say that our family's wealth is achieved by fists? Could it be that we obtained it by flattering the queen mother and that old woman? Are we going to help others kill people or set them on fire?" It’s obviously a great thing to help the victims, but who knows what kind of madness she has gone, insisting on refusing to provide them with good food? If such a thing is known after the emperor recovers, it will be no wonder if she is not so angry!"

Mrs. Guan was anxious, "My little ancestor, you still say! Aren't you afraid of killing the nine clans?"

"If you really want to punish our nine clans for this, then the Daliang Dynasty should be finished!"

Mrs. Guan was angry and impatient, wishing to hit him twice, but suddenly Guan Tianxiao came into the room, standing by her son's side for a rare time, "Actually Yaozu's words are true."

Madam Guan was dumbfounded, "Then you mean that this food can be borrowed?"

Guan Tianxiao shook his head, "Of course not. Am I crazy? Be the first bird. What are you doing with the Queen Mother for no reason?"

Guan Gongzi originally thought that his father was on his side.Hearing him say this now, he became even more impatient, boldly jumping up and cursing, "You you you...you coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death, I look down on you!"

Seeing that his son ran away in anger, Guan Tianxiao laughed instead.Touching his chin, "It's a bit like Lao Tzu's blood."

Mrs. Guan said sadly, "Why are you still laughing? Hurry up and stop your stupid son back, lest he go crazy with the Ouyang family boy. What will we do then?"

Guan Tianxiao said disapprovingly, "Young people, it is understandable for you to go crazy when you are appropriate, and do wrong things. Isn't that kid like Gongsun's family living a wonderful life when he is crazy? Let you Son, let's go crazy. It's okay."

Mrs. Guan was so angry that she fell on her back. If she is with her son, isn't it his son?All right, the father doesn't care, let alone her mother!

It's a pity that Guan Gongzi's "crazy degree" is limited. After all, Ouyang Kang returned empty-handed.Then go to Cui Hao's house.It is also fruitless.As for Wang Can, who has always been treated like an elder brother, the couple hid themselves and disappeared.

Nianfu was very sad.How could these close friends be inferior to a Gu Ye who met by chance?

But she was afraid that Ouyang Kang would be even more sad, so she tried to comfort him, "It's okay, I have already borrowed three thousand catties of grain from Gu Ye, and he promised to help us find a way."

But after closing the door, young master Ouyang put away his downcast look, with both hands in his sleeves, the old god was there, and he didn't say anything sad.He also mysteriously threw out two words, "Let's see. Let's see."

what does it mean?Nianfu was puzzled, but Du Chuan brought them back another five thousand catties of grain first, "There is still one thousand catties of Mr. Wu's here. At worst, I won't make wine for now. You can use it after you have it."

A family is a family, and there is no need to say more polite words.

Nianfu was just worried, "Then what about your business, Uncle Du?"

Du Chuan laughed and said, "Did you forget that you also got a big deal from Concubine Wei? We can't make original wine, but we can still blend it. Those people are just as loud!"

In the dead of night, when the lights were dark and the lights were dark, a small team of strong servants came quietly to the broken garden, all of them were carrying big sacks, and ran as fast as thieves.

The one in the lead was dressed as a servant, wearing a small melon skin hat, his nose was clear from the cold, and he wanted to show off, "Remember, I didn't borrow this from my house, I stole it from my house. Hehe , this time we are serving my father..."

"Go back!" Young Master Ouyang kicked him on the butt unceremoniously, and gave him a look, "So many words!"

Guan Gongzi shrugged his shoulders and smiled very complacently.

Looking back, I saw another acquaintance dressed similarly to him, also bringing a team of servants and food over.He purposely moved in front of others to block the way, "I don't know you, I didn't see anything."

"Isn't it because I beat you for nothing? Anyway, you don't know me, so if you don't beat me, you won't beat me for nothing!"

bad guy!Guan Gongzi glared at the man and ran away.

The bad guy Cui Hao gave Ouyang Kang a pile of receipts, "These are all two or three hundred catties of grain purchase certificates. They were stolen from my father. They haven't been named anyway. Let your servants take them." Buy it, regardless of the small quantity, it adds up to three or four thousand catties."

No thanks, be careful when you go back.Ouyang Kang waved his hand, and Cui Hao also left.

Then, the carriage of Wang Can's family came, but it was under the banner of the owner of the antique shop, Qiu.The manager quietly stuffed a letter from Ouyang Kang, "This is my uncle's handwriting, please keep it safe, my lord."

Opening it up, there is a bank note inside, with seven big characters, "Should the clouds open to see the moonlight."

Yes, only by persevering can there be hope for seeing the light.

■

The next day, there were still problems with the food delivered by the palace, but I wish the family food shop survived.

On the third day, it was still the food, and the Zhujia food shop was still open as usual.

In the palace, Empress Dowager Mu didn't speak, but her face was so gloomy that she couldn't see it.Looking at a table of dishes, she has no appetite at all. Opening and closing eyes, there are only Nianfu's crooked smiling eyes, as if mocking her incompetence.

Aunt Shanyin persuaded, "Queen Mother, just eat something. Since yesterday..."

"Don't eat!" I was so full of gas, how could I have the desire to eat?After thinking about it for a while, Mother Mu suddenly smiled sinisterly, "I want to see what kind of supernatural abilities this girl has, and see how long she can last!"

So, on the fourth day.The porridge shed of King Qi and King Chu of Dongshi representing the government, the porridge shed headed by Hongxinglou in Nanshi, and the joint porridge shed of wealthy merchants in West City were all told, "Due to the shortage of grain in the country, from today onwards, The food sent by the government will be halved."

What?Everyone was shocked.

The disaster victims in several major cities have formed a relatively stable situation at present. If the number suddenly decreases, it means that half of the disaster victims will not be able to eat.So where do these people go?

The only choice is Beishi.

Because the porridge there is the only porridge in the whole capital that adds oil, salt, vegetables and meat. In the past, people didn't grab it because they could also drink porridge that survived elsewhere.But if life is also threatened, everyone will unanimously turn their attention there, but this way.How much pressure is there in Beishi?

Climb up on the ladder and take a look, Fei Zhi's scalp is almost numb!

How can there be so many people?The flow of people was more than twice the usual rate. Where did so many people come from?

Beishi was the only place that hadn't been notified.Even Fei Zhi didn't know where so many people came from, let alone chanting blessings?

How to do?

Standing beside Ouyang Kang, Nianfu panicked.With so many people, how could their family's food be enough?

Ouyang Kang didn't know what to do.

Take another look at the increasingly crowded victims.He suddenly felt a deep powerlessness.

Today, the palace didn't even send them any food for pretense, only the guards who came by order watched silently as they unpacked their own food bags one by one, threw them into the pot, and distributed them to the common people.

In the broken garden, the food that was enough to last for three to five months had already been eaten up.Even their hard-earned money.Also in order to buy food, spend more than half of it.Ouyang Kang doesn't care about money.He was just thinking, after today, where will they go to beg for a meal?

Why doesn't the emperor manage politics? Why hasn't there been any news from my husband?Without their help, how could he fight against the Queen Mother's will?

"Give way, everyone give way." Suddenly, two carriages came over.

Nianfu didn't recognize him, but when Ouyang Kang saw the middle-aged scribe next to the car, he was very surprised, "Mr. Pei?"

Pei Xingyan, the top leader of the Imperial College, glanced at him, nodded slightly, then looked at the porridge sheds and the victims like mountains and seas, and asked calmly, "Where do you put the food?"

Ouyang Kang was surprised, "You..."

Even Guan Yaoqing knew that his family had offended the Queen Mother. Given the relationship between Pei Xingyan and the Guan family, would he not know about it?How dare he openly come to deliver food in person?

But Pei Xingyan waved his hand, "I didn't give it to you. I heard that the imperial treasury was tight, so I came to give it to these victims. My family is poor and weak, and I don't have much ability. Two carts of food are just a drop in the bucket. .”

But what he did was already the biggest support!

Ouyang Kang was so moved that he didn't know what to say, but Pei Xingyan stood in front of the people and said to the victims and the common people, "Everyone, please listen to me! If the disaster hits today, it is difficult to support the original aid by the imperial court alone." The amount of porridge. So here I implore everyone, don’t embarrass these porridge givers because of the small amount of porridge. In addition, I have another unfeeling request, please reduce the amount of food, and don’t think about eating enough Can you save your life? Can the people who still have the energy donate some food? A trickle of water can eventually converge into a river. Today, even a handful of rice and two vegetables may save a person’s life .As the people of Daliang, we should be in the same boat and overcome difficulties together. I also hope that everyone will lend a helping hand and support each other!"

"Well said!" Among the crowd, a man stood up, and Nianfu recognized him as Brother Wan, an old customer of her restaurant.

He walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the crowd, "I, Lao Wan, have no skills, just a stinky coolie. But in the days of heavy snow, if it hadn't been for sister Zhu's shop, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to eat hot food. I want to help out, but I have no ability, and I am too embarrassed to stand up. But now that the old man has said it, then I am not afraid of losing face."

He took out a bag of grain from behind, "This is the ten catties of rice I bought this morning, I will keep half of it, and I will give the rest to you, please don't dislike it!"

"I'm coming too!"

Among the crowd, more people stood up and donated generously. They didn't give much, not even a whole bag of rice, but no one dared to underestimate their wishes, because these insignificant things might It is already half of their net worth.

Finally, a guard who supervised the porridge distribution also stood up.He took out a food collection voucher from his underwear and handed it to Nianfu.This is for soldiers only, and you can get it without paying.

It was warm, but a thin piece of paper seemed to weigh a thousand catties. Nianfu held it in his hands, trembling slightly, tears were swirling desperately in his eyes, and they were already eager to fall!
