Chapter 1,153: A Single Blow Shatters the Illusion of Beauty

.The Li family all let out a sigh of relief, their eyes reddened. After days of fleeing, they finally saw a glimmer of hope.As long as you can find a ship sailing south, it will only take half a month...The common people of Xindu didn't feel too anxious because they were under the emperor's feet. Where there was trouble, they wouldn't be affected either.

In a bad year, at most your well would run dry. Then you'd just go to your neighbor's house to get water. 。The well in the neighbor's house has also run dry, so they have to go to the communal deep well at the end of the street... The impending refugee tide is probably that heavy stick, which suddenly wakes up both the upper and lower parts of Xin! We can no longer be intoxicated by the illusion of prosperity and peace in the country!Mr. Wen originally went out to chat with a few colleagues, wanting to hear if there were any new developments recently... 。On his way back, he saw that Li Lao Er's face was off. He went up to him and asked a few questions. 。When he heard, his first words were, "Perhaps this is a good thing! With things in disarray, that person won't have the time to think about what's happening north!"Li Laoer nodded and replied, "That's true. The trouble with Broken Gold Beach is that it’s already vulnerable. If someone with bad intentions were to lead the refugees astray, they could become a weapon capable of tearing everything apart!" "Fortunately, our family got the news first and acted quickly..."。Mr. Wen instructed, “Family matters are best handled by the County Princess.” 。She thought more carefully! Li Lao Er, with practiced ease, found the little eunuch who had previously delivered the message. 。Jia Yin saw the little eunuch's sullen face again and quickly recognized him. She smiled and asked, "Little Eunuch, has my second uncle troubled you to deliver a message again"The little eunuch blushed when he heard this, after all, he had received the other party's gift but was so reluctant, it wasn't very polite. 。He quickly took out a note from his sleeve and held it up with both hands. 。Jia Yin's expression shifted, she cast a glance and immediately withdrew her smile, saying, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I shall have to trouble you with another trip to the palace gate." 。Having said that, she didn't wait for the eunuch to speak before going to find paper and pen. She wrote furiously, filling a whole page with her writing, then folded it neatly and gave it to the eunuch. 。The little eunuch, having heard the instructions, quickly slipped away running along the wall. 。Just as the old woman came out of the inner hall, she saw this and asked, “What’s wrong”Jia Yin didn't tell the truth, and forced a smile and replied, "Nothing, Grandma" 。Your second uncle remembers you and sent someone to ask about you. 。" Mrs. Li was delighted that her son was filial, but she said, "He's just worrying too much. With you here and the princess taking care of me, what could possibly go wrong" 。”Jia Yin quickly changed the subject, occasionally looking out at the scorching sun, her eyes dark...It was finally time to leave the palace. Jia Yin helped her grandmother onto their carriage. Li Lao Er, Mr. Wen, and Jia An had been waiting for a while already. 。Li Laotai picked up her fan and fanned herself a few times, whispering, "From Kunning Palace to the door, it's only a few steps, yet I'm already sweating." 。I'm getting old, I can't take it anymore. 。" Li Lao'er quickly took the fan and fanned for his mother, coaxing, "Mother isn't old, she's in good health." 。"So many people have been carried out these days, but Mother's spirit is still so strong!" "That's thanks to the Third Princess and the Prince, they really haven't spared any effort in taking care of me." 。"Even the Crown Prince is alright, at least he grew up in our Suijin Beach." 。But the princess, though she had a fierce temper, was actually kind and thoughtful. She was also a rare good child. 。By this time, the carriage had already begun to move. Jia Yin poured cool tea from the teapot for everyone. 。The old woman looked at her son, grandson, and Mr. Wen all in the carriage and came to her senses, asking, “How did you all squeeze into one carriage”Li Lao Er had no choice but to whisper, “Mother, there have been continuous natural disasters, and refugees from the south have reached the outskirts of Xindu. Our place is too conspicuous, we might have to go back together and think of a way...” 。"Seeing Grandma's face change color, Jia Yin quickly said, "Grandma, I've already made the arrangements." 。Let's talk about it when you get home. We can discuss what needs to be changed. 。"Good, good!" Old Lady Li grasped her granddaughter's hand, her expression complex. 。The Li family came from a background of fleeing famine, so they knew the hardships of escaping hunger too well. 。After enjoying over a decade of good times, I find myself facing another period of exile. 。However, this time it was the other party fleeing, and they had to defend their territory from being implicated and harmed...The carriage soon arrived at the Earl's Mansion. Chunxiu heard the news and came out to greet them. 。Wan'er hurried away with the child, taking Wanqiu with her. Chunxiu stayed behind to look after Earl's Mansion, diligently carrying out her duties. 。As soon as everyone entered the room, they were offered warm water for washing up and snacks to tide them over. 。The village head wasn't one to sit idle, and he'd gone to the count's small garden to look at the vegetables they'd planted. He was back now. 。Everyone gathered together, discussing the arrangements. 。Jia Yin then said, “Although we only saw a dozen or so refugees for now, with the severe drought, I imagine a large number will soon gather.” 。The more people there are, the more conflicts arise. For survival, refugees would steal, rob and plunder without hesitation. 。So, I had people send letters to the Liu family, the Jia family, and the Xing family before. 。And then there's the academy. The town is almost deserted now, and the academy is empty too. 。If the refugees were to get greedy and seize the library, harming the books and frightening the master and his family, that would be terrible. 。"Uncle Two, please still go and deliver a message to Dean Zhou." 。If the Headmaster deems it necessary, he can also request personnel from Uncle Da Yong to assist with the security of the academy. 。“I also had someone send a letter to Uncle Da Yong, he is already selecting people.” 。Over a thousand wounded soldiers from the Northern Campaign were sent back. It would be easy to pick out two or three hundred able-bodied ones. 。Regardless of whether the academy needs it or not, we must increase manpower at Suijin Beach and strengthen our defenses. 。Could you please arrange accommodation and meals for these people when the time comes, Village Chief 。The village head quickly replied, "My lady, rest assured. Many people have left the village, leaving many empty houses." 。As for food, I'm planning on making a big pot of rice recently! Everyone can eat together, and it's convenient to arrange things if anything comes up. 。"

Li Lao'er also agreed, "I'll write a letter in a while and have Zheng He go there." 。"Those are all easy to say, but the mountain of gold..." Mr. Wen frowned, took a sip of tea and said. Everyone understood what he meant: the sight of mountains full of fruits and fields overflowing with vegetables was just too overwhelming. 。If refugees came, they would definitely not let anyone go. 。

Li Laotai was very reluctant, but still said, "It's better to just process it all. Sell what can be sold

What can't be sold, take it out and give it to the disaster victims. This is our family doing our best for this natural disaster. 。Think back to the beginning, we were on the run the whole time. Who could have helped us then It would have been so great! 。 "Empathy, a life in need helps another in need!" Li Lao'er quickly said, "Mother, rest assured, if we can help, we definitely will. " 。Our family is prepared for the possibility that someone with bad intentions might incite refugees to act against us. 。"

The village head also nodded in agreement and said, "I'm afraid of this too, let's come up with a solution quickly. " 。Everyone is happy with their lives these days, and they would definitely be willing to lend a hand if they could. 。We're afraid that some people might be ungrateful, thinking that the aid is something they deserve. Then, they might take advantage of the situation and cause chaos at the Gold Beach, ruining everything. We end up being taken advantage of despite our good intentions. 。" Seeing that the head of the conversation had gone awry, Jia Yin opened her mouth to straighten it out. 。The peaches on the mountain should be about eight mature, pick them down and sell them in the city. 。The shop cannot open its doors, but the shopkeepers know many purchasing officers. They split the profits and that's about it. The rest is handled through favors and gifts. 。As for those unripe fruits, you can make juice with honey and freeze them into popsicles, or simply sell the juice, or make jam. Sell as much as you can. 。“The crops in the fields should be harvested. Keep enough vegetables for ourselves and send some to the military camps at the docks. The rest will be distributed to disaster relief as needed.” 。"Like this arrangement, will it work" Today's update is here~ning to look at but unable to harm anyone.But she couldn't say that. The third princess wasn't stupid, and she was willing to listen to advice, but having been spoiled since childhood, she occasionall...
