Chapter 523 Earthquake (1) ([-])
In the early hours of the morning, Shen Ji was sleeping in a daze when he suddenly felt the bed move violently.She reached out and touched Wei Ying's sitting body, "What's wrong?"

"The ground is shaking, don't be afraid, we are fine here."

"Child!" Hearing that there was an earthquake, Shen Ji's remaining drowsiness disappeared immediately, and he turned over and sat up, only to realize that he was naked.At the same time, I heard the crying of the little bun next to me, and Xiao Zhizhi seemed to be calling her parents.

Wei Ying had already dressed, "I'll go and have a look." Then he walked out.

After a while, he brought one of them in with each arm, and put them next to Shen Ji who was dressing, "Look at them. I'll go and ask about the situation." After speaking, he went out.There was an earthquake under the jurisdiction, so it is natural to understand the situation immediately and organize rescue.

Shen Ji stretched out his hand to pick up the little bun, "Good boy, it's okay. With your parents here, you will be fine." At the same time, he pulled the quilt to cover Xiao Zhizhi, "Sleep a little longer, mother will watch over you .”

Xiao Zhizhi was frightened just now, and when she opened her eyes, she found that the ceiling was moving, so she kept calling her father and mother.Lying on her parents' bed at this moment, she fell asleep again with the sound of her mother's coaxing and her younger brother's crying.The little bun also fell asleep after a while.

Wei Ying went out to ask about the situation in a hurry, and then came in again.Seeing that the two children had been coaxed to fall asleep side by side by Shen Ji, he said to her: "The situation is not very good, and we are not sure where the center of the earthquake is. Just now I asked the more experienced yamen servants, and there may be rocks in this posture." Collapsed. Tongzhi Wang has been dispatched to check it immediately. I will go to Qianya to sit in charge and arrange various matters. Some things need to be prepared first.”

Shen Ji nodded, "Go, I'm at home." While getting out of bed, he found a cloak for Wei Ying to keep out the cold, and asked the small kitchen to pack some ready-to-eat food for Guan Meng.

"I'm afraid that you won't have time to eat if you have too many things to do later. Don't get tired. The body is the foundation of doing things."

"Oh, I see."

Just as he was talking, he shook again, and both of them rushed to the bed, regardless of their unsteady walking.The two little ones woke up again, seeing that their parents had settled down in Xiaozhima, and stretched out their little hands to pat the little bun who was crying again, "Brother, go to sleep." After saying that, she tilted her head and fell asleep.

Shen Ji picked up the little bun and sat on the edge of the bed. Wei Ying pulled the quilt over him and said, "I'm leaving. Liu Zhun will leave it to you. If you have something to do, arrange for him to do it. There are also the old seven and the eighth, who are not children either. Yes. At a time like this, I can beat the crowd."

When Wei Ying went out, someone came to report that the east wall had collapsed.He glanced back at Shen Ji, and the latter asked someone on duty to watch over him.At times like this, I'm afraid that someone will take advantage of the chaos and do bad things.Wei Ying also arranged for yamen servants to patrol the streets.

Walking to the second gate, we saw Wei Shan and Wei Zhu coming hand in hand.Wei Ying nodded and stopped, "Seventh brother, follow me to the front office, and eighth brother, stay at home and help your sister-in-law look after the house. I will leave your sister-in-law, nephew and niece to you."

The two were very happy when they saw that he treated him like a man and explained the matter, so they hurriedly agreed.Wei Shan followed Wei Ying to the front office.Wei Zhu went outside the main room to say hello to Shen Ji, saying that if there is anything to do, just arrange for him to do it.Shen Ji was walking out with the little bun in his arms, when Ji Bai next to her suddenly saw a "strawberry" on her neck, blushed suddenly, and told her in a low voice.

Shen Ji was taken aback and quickly hugged the little bun higher to block it, "Then trouble the eighth brother to tell the woman on duty to bring all the children to the main house. Then bring the little one with Liu Zhun." Someone set up a large bunk in the open space of the garden." The children gathered together to take care of them, so that the adults could free up their hands to do things.

The Datong shop was quickly set up, and dolls such as the little sesame buns and the little wax gourds were all placed on it.Cailan is in charge of taking care of the baby with the wet nurse and two little maids.After a while, it moved twice again, and this time the house also collapsed. Fortunately, no one was in the house at the time.

Fang Datong brought someone to count the money and food in stock and reported to Shen Ji.Her face was a little heavy, the house in this government office should be the most secure, one of the magistrate's house has collapsed, let alone the common people's house.Unexpectedly, there was no drought or flood this year, but there was an earthquake.The burden of disaster relief is not light.

Wei Zhu came back with someone to patrol around, and said to Shen Ji: "Sister-in-law, you also go to rest for a while. There is still a while before dawn, and I am at home."

Shen Ji heard Xiao Baozi's constant crying, and then he was infected by him, and Xiao Donggua also cried, so he nodded and went over.

In the center of the open space in the back garden, a simple tent was surrounded by curtains. This place will not be crushed even if the house is knocked down.A group of little bean curds are here.Shen Ji took the little bun from the nurse's arms, seeing him crying out of breath, couldn't help feeling very distressed.

Xiao Zhizhi next to him stretched out and grabbed Shen Ji's sleeve, "Mother, where is Daddy? I'm afraid..."

"Daddy has gone to resettle the common people. Don't be afraid. We will be fine at home. We have everything we need to eat and drink." All the money and food in stock at home were counted out and moved out.Tomorrow morning, we will set up a stove in this garden and start a fire. After all, no one knows when the aftershocks will come.The servants are still taking advantage of the gap between the earthquakes to move things out, food and drink, as well as blankets and blankets.

Shen Ji hugged his youngest son and patted him softly, while Xiaozhizhi was holding her sleeves all the time, while Cailan was paying attention to their needs, while asking the little maid to take care of Xiaoduoduo, Xiaodonggua and others.At this moment, their parents were sent by Shen Ji to work separately.Even Jibai Clover went to the simple stove on the side to help the cook make steamed buns and other simple meals.After a while everyone has done their work and can eat.

Shen Ji saw that the house had been in chaos for a while, but now it was still in order, so he hugged Xiao Baozi and coaxed Xiao Zhizhi to lie down on the bunk for a while.I'm still busy tomorrow.Such a time is not the time when loving-kindness will shine.

Someone knocked on the door outside, and it was Liu Zhu who brought someone over with a box containing silver bills.Inside are the money of two Luranlou and Baoyuezhai.After counting the silver deposits just now, Shen Ji sent someone to tell them to bring back the silver in those two places first.She didn't want to guard against someone taking advantage of the chaos to rob, and she estimated that she would use it in the morning.

Liu Zhu took off his hood and said, "Grandma, there is some chaos in the street outside. But there are yamen guards patrolling the street, so there is no big disturbance yet."

Shen Ji nodded, "Well, then you stay here, don't go back."

Three tents were set up in the garden, one was Shen Ji's, and the dolls were all inside, so the conditions were naturally the best.The big maids around her are also here.There are two more, male and female servants in the family, one male and one female.A simple bed is usually crowded by two or three people.The person on duty is working, and everyone takes turns to rest.

Fortunately, there was no major earthquake before dawn, so Shen Ji took a nap with his two children in his arms.She didn't wake up until Cai Lan hugged Xiao Baozi away from her arms, "Huh?"
