Chapter 357 People's Livelihood

;

Ubud filled the sky, and the surroundings quickly darkened. Full episode download. So fast.

Xu Wu came over and said, "Ma'am, there is a village ten miles ahead, let's spend the night in the village tonight!" Every time he was on his way, Xu Wu would send someone to check the road ahead. Then decide where to have lunch and where to rest.

Yuxi brought two children, it was impossible to let the children eat cold food, and Yuxi was not in good health and could not eat cold food, so she had to start a fire at noon. Except for the first two days, Xu Wu will make people prepare for the upcoming events when he is on the way. When Yuxi arrives there, she can basically eat it directly. It is also so convenient to follow many people and have thirty good horses.

Yu Xi smiled and said: "You can arrange it." Xu Wu acted very thoughtfully, and Yu Xi didn't let Yu Xi worry too much on the way.

The carriage moves very slowly, especially when it reaches a rough place. Even if Xu Wu arranges it well, he can only walk a hundred miles a day when the weather is good, and if it rains heavily, he will rest where he is. I also brought a tent, otherwise it would not be enough.

A quarter of an hour later, it began to rain. Although it was light rain, Yuxi still closed the window, but Zaozao climbed up to look outside.

Yu Xi hugged Zao Zao in her arms, and said with a smile: "This girl is really a monkey, she never has a moment of peace." One moves well, and the other is too quiet, which also causes a headache.

It was raining, the sky was dark, and the road was very difficult to walk. After walking for half an hour, they arrived outside the village. The roads in the village are all trails, and horse-drawn carriages cannot enter. The carriage was placed on the side of the road, and Yuxi got out of the carriage with her tightly wrapped Liu'er in her arms.

Hongdou held up an umbrella for Yuxi, while Hongqi supported Yuxi. As for Zao Zao, Xu Wu, who was wearing a coir raincoat, held him in his arms. Of course, Xu Wu still held an umbrella on his head.

Zhuangzi also only has two big tiled houses of blue bricks, one of which is still in the front. This time, all have been borrowed.

When Yuxi arrived, Nanny Quan and Mama Bai had already been busy for most of the day. If you want to say who is the hardest in the group, it must be Mama Bai and Nanny Quan. Mother Bai is responsible for Yuxi and the children's three meals a day, while Nanny Quan is responsible for making nutritious and delicious food for Liu Er and Zao Zao. The two children have not had any problems until now, thanks to Sister Quan.

After dinner, it was already half past Xu time. Today's road is relatively flat and not bumpy, Yuxi fell asleep in the carriage. At this moment, Yu Xi was full of energy, and said to Xu Wu: "Jiang Li is calling over, I want to ask him something."

Xu Wu was a little surprised, and said, "Ma'am, tell me what you need." After driving for half a month, Liu'er has been fine all along, without any headaches, which made him very relieved. full text

Yuxi shook her head and said: "I want to ask about the current situation of the spring plowing in Lizheng and the living conditions of the peasants in the village." She has stayed in Zhuangzi, and she has a rough idea of ​​the life of the farmers. It's just that she wants to know more details, so there is a bottom line.

Li Zheng soon came over, an old man with gray hair and beard. As soon as he walked in and saw Yuxi, Lizheng knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Yuxi three times and said: "Madam is auspicious and healthy." He was still shaking when he said this.

When Xu Wu borrowed this room, he explained their identities to Li Zheng. Because of this, Lizheng would perform such a big gift when he saw Yuxi.

Yuxi signaled Xu Wu to help him up, and said with a pleasant face: "Old man, I have borrowed your house, and I haven't thanked you yet!"

Li Zheng didn't dare to raise his head, and said: "Don't dare, dare not, it's our good fortune that Madam can borrow our house." The general's wife lived in his house, and it was an honor to say it.

Yuxi smiled, and without being polite to Lizheng, she directly asked about the situation in the village: "How many families are there in the village now?"

Li Zheng said, "There were originally eighty-six families in our Zhuangzi. Life has been difficult these years, and people walked to death. Now there are only forty-one families and two hundred and twenty-nine people." There are forty-one households in 19181, which is already too many.

Yuxi asked about the situation of spring plowing and land reclamation.

Li Zheng is also an out-and-out old farmer, and he only recommends Li Zheng because he is old and fair. Li Zheng wiped his eyes and said, "The most open land in the village is twelve acres, and the least open three acres. When planting, they also went to the government to get good seeds, and they have been cultivated. This year, don't worry about it. I’m hungry.” The government not only encourages land reclamation, but also borrows good breeds for farming cattle, and also reduces taxes, so as long as you are not lazy, you can have a full meal.

Hearing this, Yuxi nodded her head. Looking at the prefect of Linzhou, he can still do something. He continued to ask a lot of s; questions, and Lizheng answered them all.

After Lizheng left, Yuxi's expression was serious. There are 229 people in the village, only more than 50 young and middle-aged people, and the rest are old and weak women and children. That is to say, the strong labor force only accounts for more than one-fifth. This number is shocking.

Xu Wu looked at Yuxi's appearance and said, "Ma'am, it's March, and there's food everywhere, as long as you're not lazy, you won't starve to death. When the food is harvested in the summer, they don't have to worry about being hungry anymore." .”

Yuxi shook her head and said: "The food output is too low. If there is a natural disaster, the people will still not be able to fill their stomachs." At this point, Yuxi naturally thought of the yams that Mr. Chen gave her. It's just that Tian Yang went to Fujian for such a long time and hasn't come back here, probably something went wrong on the way. When Tian Yang arrived in Pick City, he sent other people to Fujian to have a look before Tian Yang came back.

Xu Wu said: "Ma'am, I have to go on the road tomorrow, Ma'am, please rest early!" No one can avoid natural disasters. Madam was worried, but it was useless.

Yuxi nodded and said: "When we arrive in Linzhou City, we will stay in Linzhou City for two days!" It is only more than a hundred miles away from Linzhou City, and we can arrive the day after tomorrow.

Xu Wu nodded and said: "Okay." He obeyed all Yuxi's arrangements. Let Yuxi use it very conveniently.

Sister Quan looked at Yuxi and read with a thick book in her arms, writing while reading. Sister Quan sighed, then handed the warm water in her hand to Yu Xi and said, "Don't look, go to bed early!" It was also inconvenient in the car, or else I would have put down the books in the car. Cough, I don't know how to teach a bookworm.

Yuxi shook her head and said, "I'm not sleepy yet, Mammy, take the child to bed first!" After finishing speaking, she drank the water and swallowed the residue in the water. It's also because of soaking in ganoderma lucidum every day, after walking for half a month, Yuxi's complexion is better than when she came out.

Sister Quan said helplessly, "What do you think you are still working so hard for?" Up to now, Yuxi only needs to firmly grasp Qing's heart, take care of the two children and take care of the housework. It's completely unnecessary to work so hard on yourself.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles, and it takes a lot of thought to deal with it." If you know more, you won't be fooled at will.

Sister Quan said: "Yuxi, women can't be too strong, let the general handle the outside affairs!" In terms of strategy, Yuxi was a few blocks away from Qing. However, Sister Quan did not approve of Yu Xi's meddling in outside affairs. Women are too strong, so strong that they overwhelm men, and it is easy for couples to become strangers. Because a man doesn't like his wife to be stronger than him.

Yuxi shook her head with a smile and said: "If a husband and wife are of one heart, their benefits will cut money." Qing is not good at government affairs, and she can make up for this deficiency. Yuxi believes that as long as their husband and wife work together, they will be able to manage the Northwest well. When the situation in the northwest stabilizes, it's time to settle the score with the Song family and the Queen Mother.

Mother Quan's heart shivered, and she said with a straight face, "Yuxi, men don't like women meddling in outside affairs. If you insist on doing this, in the future, if there is a dispute between husband and wife, other people will definitely take advantage of it." Mammy believes that the most important thing for a woman is her husband's family, if another woman takes advantage of her, it will be like picking sesame seeds and losing watermelon.

Yu Xi smiled, and said: "He Rui took the initiative to bring this up." Giving it to her is completely different from asking for it herself.

Sister Quan asked reflexively: "Really? Did Qing take the initiative to let you intervene in outside affairs?"

Yu Xi smiled and said: "He Rui was originally impatient with things outside, so he let me deal with it when he saw that I was good at it. This is also good, so that I won't be bored in the future." If Yu Xi knew that Qing was afraid that she would think wildly if she was too idle , so as to deal with her outside affairs, I don't know how I will feel.

Sister Quan frowned and said, "If you deal with outside affairs, there will be a lot of gossip." In the eyes of men, women only need to take care of internal affairs and intervene outside to raise children. Yu Xi is meddling in outside affairs now, this is not an ordinary matter, how can Qing's subordinates have no objection. If you say too much, the parties will always be affected.

Yu Xi still had great confidence in Qing, and said: "He Rui is not someone who can make him change his mind with just a few words." Qing is a very principled person, and he will listen to what he says is reasonable. If someone complains and provokes dissension, he will not listen.

Sister Quan was silent for a while, and said: "No matter what, the husband and children are the most important things, and rights and other things are secondary. You must clearly distinguish between the primary and secondary."

Yu Xi smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mammy, I have my sense of proportion." They both hope to govern the Northwest well, and with this major premise, there will be no conflicts. If there is no conflict, it will not affect the relationship between husband and wife.

s;

Sister Quan was a little emotional, and said: "When the emperor bestowed the marriage, I was very worried. Now it seems that it was just a misunderstanding." There are many men who dote on their wives, but it is the first time I have heard that they dote on their wives to this extent.

After hearing this, Yu Xi couldn't hide her smile: "Yes! It's my blessing to marry He Rui." She thought she wanted to escape marriage at the beginning! Fortunately, I didn't escape the marriage, otherwise I would regret it for the rest of my life.

Sister Quan stopped urging Yuxi, and said, "Then you read the book again, and I'll take care of Liu'er and Zaozao." Sister Quan also put a lot of thought into the two children.

Yuxi didn't read any more, but fell into deep thought. They only occupy two states and counties in Xihai now, if they want to occupy all of them, they will have to fight again. War means the death of people, and the current situation in the Northwest still requires as few deaths as possible: "What method should be used to achieve the goal at the lowest cost." This is really a brain-intensive thing.

It was halfway through the hour of the day, and Yuxi was still awake.

Sister Quan was a little helpless, she walked over and said, "Hurry up and go to sleep, we have to hurry tomorrow!" I don't know why Yuxi is so interested in these things.

The cicadas were constantly singing outside, but Yuxi slept soundly. r For convenience next time, don't forget to bookmark this site!
