Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 658: ：Zhishi
The latest website: Two million taels is definitely not enough.
There are millions of people in six counties, providing compensation for the dead and injured, providing food relief, treating diseases and medicines, rebuilding after disasters, preventing and treating epidemics, etc., and nothing less than five million taels will do.
The most frightening thing is that far more than six counties were affected.
Back at Yuyuyuan, Yu Youyao immediately wrote a letter to Grandma Yue and asked Grandma Yue to take her token and go to Zhejiang to collect the grain and medicinal materials from all the grain and medicine shops in Jiangnan. and medicine shop doctor, were transferred to Ningbo, Shaoxing, and Taizhou counties to fully assist Ye Hanyuan in fighting disasters and rescuing people.
That's all she can do.
That night, Yu Youyao tossed and turned and couldn't sleep all night.
On the second day, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.
The house was filled with mugwort, calamus, and statues of Zhongkui, and it was a lively scene.
Yu Youyao hung a colorful silk sachet on her waist, wore a calamus sword, and tied a colorful rope on her arm. After having breakfast, she went to Anshou Hall.
Old Madam Yu also had not slept a wink all night, her eyes were black and she had no energy: "The emperor had arranged for a royal chariot early in the morning to go to the moat to invite the dragon and offer sacrifices to the water god, in order to pray for good weather, peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
Yu Youyao was stunned for a moment: "Today's dragon boat race will still be held as usual?"
Mrs. Yu nodded: "Zhejiang is flooded and there is a severe drought in the north. At this time, the dragon boat race must be more grand."
Yu Youyao couldn't explain for a moment how she felt.
Dragon boat racing to pray for good weather is not wrong in itself.
But when I think about the floods in Zhejiang, the people are mourning and displaced, but there is peace in Beijing and the scene of dragon boat shows, I feel uncomfortable in my heart.
Old Mrs. Yu waved her hand: "I won't go to the dragon boat race today. As people get older, they can't stand the noise and noise, but the house is still clean."
Yu Youyao didn't have any thoughts anymore: "Since grandma won't go, our family won't go either."
Mrs. Yu didn’t force it either.
After returning to Yayuyuan, Yu Youyao looked for Aunt Jiang. She only said that the old lady was feeling unwell, so she stopped going to the moat to watch the dragon boat race.
It was a wonderful Dragon Boat Festival, spent in a deserted way.
We didn't even have a banquet at home, we just ate the rice dumplings, realgar wine, five poisonous cakes, etc. that were gifts from the palace as a token of the festival.
At dusk, Yu Zongshen came over. His eyes were black and blue. He didn't sleep all night last night and listened to the calculations made by the Ministry of Finance all night.
"Not long ago, the palace received news that the Xie Mansion had shipped twenty shipments of grain to Zhejiang. Zhejiang probably has no shortage of grain, but the matter after the early disaster is too complicated."
Old Madam Yu sighed with emotion: "The Xie Mansion is kind and righteous. It is not easy to raise these twenty shipments of food. I think it was prepared early in the morning to provide food relief for the drought."
Yu Zongshen held the tea cup tightly: "One Xie Mansion has almost solved half of the food shortage in Zhejiang. Moreover, the Xie Mansion donated not only food, but also attitude. The world's business flow followed the Xie Mansion's lead, and the remaining grain , as long as the government comes forward to contact local merchants, they can also raise and borrow everything."
Old Madam Yu felt a lot more relieved, but sighed again: "The disaster relief work has been settled, but there should be an explanation for the tens of thousands of people who died due to floods. This matter has just begun..."
Yu Zongshen said: "Xia Ge is about to become an official."
Mrs. Yu was suddenly startled: "At this juncture?"
Yu Zongshen nodded: "The fold has been handed over, and the emperor has not expressed it. It seems that he will have to wait until the flood victims in Zhejiang have regulations."
Mrs. Yu didn’t know what to say anymore: "Then you..."
Yu Zongshen: "It has been decided that I will succeed the chief assistant."
Mrs. Yu was not happy: "The first assistant has become a hot potato."
The flood in Zhejiang will definitely affect the cabinet, and it must be related to Mr. Xia Ge. After all, he is a veteran of the three dynasties. Even if the emperor is dissatisfied with him, it is impossible to really hold him accountable, and he will be clean and serve as an official. A scene between the king and his ministers.
And his appointment will also cause most of the Xia Party in the DPRK to lose power.
Things in Zhejiang are much easier to handle.
It was also convenient for the emperor.
On the Zhejiang side, there is still chaos. The second son took over as the first assistant at this time, and the situation is also very difficult.
Yu Zongshen said "hmm".
Old Madam Yu sighed softly: "Tomorrow, let your wife block the side door from the West Mansion to the East Mansion. From now on, you will come to the big house less often. Just ask your wife to pay some filial piety every month. Now that the families are separated, let’s separate them completely. Don’t worry about it, your elder brother. If you have spare time, take care of the clan more. I’m old. From now on, the rise and fall of the family and the clan will be yours alone. I have nothing to do with it."
Yu Zongshen said nothing.
Old Madam Yu thought of Mr. Xie again in a daze, and her face turned gray: "I was sorry for what happened back then. The Xie Mansion helped the court to lift the sea ban. The imperial court rewarded the Xie Mansion. Rou Jia followed everyone in the Xie Mansion to Beijing. , I held a banquet at home to entertain Mr. Xie. Roujia was bright and generous, and she was particularly close to me. Later, I had no objection, and noticed the way you looked at Roujia, and by some strange coincidence, I proposed marriage to Mr. Xie."
Xie Mansion did not agree at the time.
However, he didn’t reject it outright. There were only two brothers in the Yu Mansion, and there were not a lot of brothers and sisters. The backyard was also clean. The boss had just entered the court, and he still had some character and talent. Because of the relationship between the Xie Mansion and the Yu Mansion With the help of Xie Mansion, there is no need to worry that his daughter will be wronged if she enters Yu Mansion.
After various considerations, Yu Mansion is indeed a good choice for Xie.
The second child is unaware.
It wasn't until the two parties exchanged Geng Tie that the second child knew the truth and had a big quarrel with her, but the matter was over and the matter was settled.
She tested Roujia at that time.
I also discovered that Roujia and Lao Er did not have a private friendship, it was Lao Er who just got so excited and just thought about how deep this wishful relationship ~IndoMTL.com~ can be.
It was then decided to give Roujia to the boss.
On the other hand, I am also worried that Roujia will get married, and the second child will not give up. If Roujia becomes a brother-in-law, the second child will probably not miss her.
Yu Zongshen suddenly put down his tea cup, and the bottom of the cup hit the table with a loud bang. He stood up from his chair and said, "I'm tired, so I'll go back first."
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Yu had already strode outside without waiting for her to speak.
Mrs. Yu felt dizzy and fell down on the couch, gasping for air.
"Old Madam..." Grandma Liu was startled, quickly took the medicine and fed it to the Old Madam.
Mrs. Yu took the medicine and burst into tears: "He hates me. Even if I die, he will not forgive me. He has played a good son, a good husband, and a good father over the years, but his heart It was so cold that he refused to even mention Mrs. Xie in front of me because he believed that anyone in the Yu family who mentioned the word Xie could dirty her name, including himself..."
