Rebirth of the proud doctor girl

Chapter 256 Trust Is So Simple

Back at the rental office, the front door was blocked due to heavy snowfall, and it took some effort to push the door, so we could only clear the snow blocking the door first, and then push the door open.Because of the wind, the snow in the yard was higher than the snow outside.

The carriage was placed in the courtyard, and the horses were also tied in the stable. The two of them opened the door and entered the house. Although the charcoal basin had been extinguished because they had been away for a long time, it was much warmer than the freezing snow.

Taking off the snow-wet cloak and putting it aside, Jiang Yunqian began to put silver charcoal into the small clay stove. It was freezing in the middle of the night, and they urgently needed a bowl of hot water.

Seeing Jiang Yunqian busy, Princess Huaixuan thought and thought, and finally couldn't help persuading: "Sister, it's not easy to make money, and it's a long way to the northwest, so let's save some time, as food and clothing will cost you a lot on the way back." Take it easy, my sister is not too hard to bear. I heard yesterday that those people said that charcoal is much cheaper than silver charcoal, so we might as well burn charcoal from now on."

Jiang Yunqian thought for a while before realizing that Princess Huaixuan was worried about not having enough money.Then he smiled and said: "My sister is right, charcoal is much cheaper than silver charcoal, but charcoal has smoke, I'm afraid my sister won't be able to smell it, I'll buy some when the snow stops, if my sister can stand the smoke, It’s not impossible to change charcoal. As for the cost of food and clothing, sister, don’t worry, I still have a lot of money on hand, and I’ve made a lot of money over the years, so I can’t let my sister suffer.”

With Jiang Yunqian's reassurance, Princess Huaixuan felt relieved. Seeing that Jiang Yunqian had lighted the clay stove, she took a broom and went out, and asked, "Sister, it's windy and snowy outside, where are you going?"

Jiang Yunqian pointed to the roof and said, "The snow is falling more and more heavily. If I don't clean it up in time, I'm afraid the roof will collapse in the morning. Sister, let's rest first. I'll come back after clearing the snow."

I didn't expect it before, but now I know that Princess Huaixuan is so embarrassed to rest, she is much older than Jiang Yunqian, and she has some kung fu, Shangfang Qingxue is much easier than Jiang Yunqian, from Jiang Yunqian's He took the broom off his hand, "You should rest, I will let my sister clean up the snow."

Jiang Yunqian knew that she couldn't win Princess Huaixuan, and that Princess Huaixuan was more suitable than her. She wanted to borrow a ladder from Mrs. Liao's house, but before she said hello to Princess Huaixuan, Princess Huaixuan was already on the eaves. After entering the room, Jiang Yunqian was really impressed by her neat skills. Sure enough, she was more suitable for sweeping snow than herself.

It's just that Princess Huaixuan has never done this before, and there is no way to sweep the snow. With a broom here and there, the snow is everywhere. Jiang Yunqian looked at it and didn't say anything, just sweep the snow clean After running around in the snowy night for a long time, she was afraid of catching cold, so she happened to make some hot soup while Princess Huaixuan was clearing the snow.

After Princess Huaixuan swept the snow off the roof, Jiang Yunqian came out and pushed the snow out of the yard together. Looking at the howling north wind and the gloomy Tianmei, they were all worried about when the heavy snow would fall .

As for Sibao, Jiang Yunqian didn't take it seriously when she said that she went back and forth to the capital for four days. She knew that the heavy snow would continue until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and this was just the beginning. I can't come back either.

After drinking the hot soup, I was a little tired. I fell asleep quickly in bed. The next day, I was awakened by a sudden knock on the door. Jiang Yunqian got out of bed and opened the door to see Mrs. Liao standing outside the door. , Although not anxious, there are some concerns.

Jiang Yunqian said hello, "Morning, aunt."

The old lady Liao said solemnly: "It snowed too much last night, and the roof of the old He's house in Dongtou was crushed by the heavy snow. Fortunately, the person escaped in time without hurting his life, but this cold weather is enough to suffer. Although his house has a thatched roof and is not strong, but if the heavy snow keeps falling like this, our wooden roof may not be able to hold it. The aunt came here just to tell your brother that if you have time, you can go to the roof to clear the snow. , lest the roof collapse and hurt your two brothers."

Jiang Yunqian knew it. Mrs. Liao looked into the yard and saw that the snow on the roof and in the yard was not thick, and there was snow piled up outside the yard. She thought they had cleaned it, but there was no ladder in the yard. How did they get there? on the roof?

But no matter what, as long as the snow is cleared, it will be fine. Seeing that Jiang Yunqian has always had a good attitude, he told Jiang Yunqian not to feel sorry for the firewood. If it is useful, go to her to get it, and don't freeze people anymore. Well, after Jiang Yunqian thanked her, she sent the old lady Liao away, and when she turned around, she saw that Princess Huaixuan was already fully dressed, and went to the room to sweep the snow again.

Jiang Yunqian lost her sleepiness and went to the kitchen to make breakfast. After Princess Huaixuan cleaned up the snow from the roof and yard, she pushed out the door again, and Jiang Yunqian's breakfast was ready.

A simple pot of meat porridge and a few cakes, Princess Huaixuan ate deliciously. Although Jiang Yunqian saw that she was having difficulty swallowing the cakes, she tried her best not to let Jiang Yunqian see it. It can be seen that she didn't want to Jiang Yunqian spent money because she couldn't get used to it.

After the meal, Princess Huaixuan said to Jiang Yunqian: "Since Mrs. Liao asked us to go to her place to get firewood, we don't have to be polite. I'll go with you to get more firewood later."

Jiang Yunqian agreed, although they bought some charcoal in the town before, they didn't expect to be trapped here for many days at that time, if it is definitely not enough to burn all day, now that the road is blocked by heavy snow, it is impossible for them to go to the town again. It's not easy, Mrs. Liao's kindness is also because they can not only pay rent for living here, but also help her look after the house, otherwise the snow in the past few days would be enough for them to clear.

Since they are kind, there is no need for them to refuse, otherwise whoever is really cold will know.

After breakfast, Jiang Yunqian and Princess Huaixuan drove the carriage to the door of Mrs. Liao's house. After knocking on the door, Mrs. Liao came out. Seeing that it was the two of them, she didn't say anything and let them enter the hospital. A lot of firewood, and Jiang Yunqian bought a lot of rice with Mrs. Liao.The Liao family also killed the Nian pig a few years ago, and now they are all frozen in the snow. Jiang Yunqian bought more than a dozen catties, and some pickles pickled by Mrs. Liao. Mrs. Liao didn't ask for money, Jiang Yunqian Qian didn't force it, but after thanking her, she drove the carriage back to the rental office.

With the door closed, the two of them don't have to worry about food and firewood. Apart from sweeping snow and snow every day, they just chat in the house, even if they are bored, there is nothing they can do.Although the snow stopped and stopped, it never cleared up. In such weather, the carriage would get stuck in the snow when going out, and they really couldn't go on their way.

After the seventh day of the lunar new year, it was reported one after another that someone’s house was crushed by the snow again, and many people even died because of the collapsed house or being crushed under it. These are the old ladies who come to see every day They talked about whether they had cleared the snow. Although it was Mrs. Liao who was afraid that they would be lazy and say something scary, the truth in it was undoubted. People die, what about the densely populated capital city?I hope their letter can reach King Qi smoothly, and the plaster prescription for treating chilblains attached to it will also help.

In previous years, on the eighth day of the first lunar month, shops in the capital would open one after another, but this year the capital is a busy and desolate scene. The busy ones are the people clearing up the snow, and the desolate ones are the streets full of bewildered not a single shop is open. .

In addition to the people in the capital, the soldiers of the Gyeonggi Battalion were also mobilized, and every household was busy clearing the snow. Naturally, the owners of these shops were also like this. There may not be enough people to sweep the snow all day, so how could they even think about opening a shop?
Originally, when King Qi Shangzuo was worried about the heavy snow disaster, many people still watched his jokes. After all, he foresaw the flood and successfully minimized the loss of the people, but now he foresaw the heavy snow?It is inevitable that there is a suspicion that everything is a soldier.

But for those who read the joke, King Qi insisted on going his own way, and the emperor was extremely supportive of it. According to him, it was not a big mistake to prepare, and it would be better to regret it later.

With the emperor's support, King Qi's deployment of manpower was not hindered at all, and it took only half a day to spread the army around the capital, and even sent many people to the surrounding counties of the capital to inform that it was necessary to reduce the snow damage to a minimum. minimum.

In addition to helping each household to clear the snow and then transport the snow to the moat outside the city for filling, these soldiers are also a threat to those who want to take advantage of the heavy snow to do evil.

And for five days in a row, the heavy snow did not mean to clear up. Even seeing the snow in the sky for a few more days, and seeing the snow piled up outside the city by car, the ridicule that was still there before has subsided this time. , At the same time, they were all in a cold sweat. If King Qi hadn't foreseen it, it's hard to say how many houses would be collapsed by such a heavy snowfall.

I just don't know if this is the case in the capital, what happened to the people outside the city?But at this time, the road was blocked, and even if I was worried, the letter could not be delivered, so I had to wait for the snow to stop and the road to pass.

Xiao Tianyou went back to King Qi's mansion after the imperial court, and he mobilized soldiers for several days to travel around the capital. He was also very tired, but when he closed his eyes, he would worry about the heavy snow, and he couldn't sleep well. For Jiang Yunqian's trust, if there is a slight doubt and the timing is delayed, someone's family will be ruined because of this snowstorm, right?Fortunately, he was glad that he had complete trust in Jiang Yunqian.

Concubine Qi felt distressed when she saw this, so she could only quietly put a tranquilizing incense in the incense burner, and it was rare for Xiao Tianyou to sleep peacefully.Looking at Xiao Tianyou who was lying on the bed and had lost a few laps in just a few days, Princess Qi couldn't help but feel distressed. Although she knew that Jiang Yunqian was right to send someone a letter, she couldn't help complaining why she didn't send the letter to others , but want to send it to King Qi's mansion?Otherwise, it wouldn't be Xiao Tianyou's turn to worry about this matter. She fully understands the exhaustion of caring about all the people in the world.

Princess Qi also knew that Jiang Yunqian's letter would only have an effect if it was sent to King Qi's mansion, otherwise the world is so big, who would trust Jiang Yunqian completely with just a letter?

What's more, if the letter was sent to the prince's mansion, the prince might arrange it like King Qi, but if the credit was taken away by the prince, would the prince stand up again because of this?Princess Qi understood that Jiang Yunqian sent this letter not only for the sake of the people in the capital, but also for the sake of King Qi. She wanted King Qi to stabilize his power.

But I understand that I understand that whenever she sees Xiao Tianyou's tired but struggling figure, and the bloodshot eyes getting thicker and thicker, she can't help feeling distressed, but there is no better way.
