Chapter 480 Flood in the South

Liu Zhang put his waist on his back, looking like a little bully, and seemed to be sure of his thoughts and shouted very loudly.

"You are beggars, you are still thieves!"

Xingyi curled his lips, picked up a piece of rib with chopsticks, deliberately shaking it for Liu Zhang, and then took a bite: "If you can't eat, you will call others a thief, and you only have this ability!"

"Wow! I don't allow you to eat pork ribs, and you don't allow you to eat roast lamb legs. I'll give me these delicious foods back!" Liu Zhang sat on the ground and cried loudly.

Liu Yunxiang thought the crying was annoying and said to Jinyan: "Pick up a bowl of meat for him."

Jinyan responded, and as soon as he picked up the chopsticks, Cheng ran over. Seeing his son sitting on the ground crying, he didn't ask what was going on, he shouted to Liu Yunxiang: "Auntie, do you want to be shameless if you bully a child?

Now!"

Liu Yunxiang waved his hand to Jinyan, "Let's feed this bowl of meat back to the dog."

Jinyan burst out laughing, "Okay."

When Liu Zhang heard this, he cried even louder, "I want to eat meat! It's all mine! They are not allowed to eat it!"

When Cheng heard his son say this, he looked at the dining table and knew what was going on. She flattered her mouth and stammered her neck and said, "Children are young, why are you eating a few pieces of meat? Besides, they are all family members, why bother

I'm so clear about it."

Jin Yan said, "It was suggested by the second wife's grandmother. You eat meat in the first two meals, and we eat water and cooked vegetables. Why didn't you say that the family couldn't care too clearly?"

"Master, you dare to interrupt even if you are a slave. There is no rule at all!"

"I'm not your slave!"

"you!"

"Sister Jinyan is not a slave, we are a family!" Xingyi shouted.

"Grandma, look at how unruly these ones are, you..."

"I think they are right." Liu Yunxiang looked at Cheng and his eyes turned cold, "It's not your turn to interrupt the matter in our yard."

Cheng was so angry that he really wanted to break up with Liu Yunxiang. He immediately pulled his son away, but Liu Zhang was unreasonable and insisted on bringing two plates of meat and vegetables away for him to eat alone.

"Okay, I'll let the kitchen do it for you tomorrow, don't be embarrassed!"

"But my mother said that the money is not much, and she can only eat a small plate of meat at each meal!"

"You!"

Cheng was exposed by his son and couldn't hold back his face. He stretched out his hand and twisted his son's arm, and Liu Zhang cried even louder.

"You cry, I don't care about you."

As she said that, she walked out, took a few steps, and remembered something.

"No, aunt, it's logical that when you take your children back to your parents' home, you must rely on your parents' home to help you. How can you have the money to buy these?"

Liu Yunxiang raised her eyebrows, "What, do you still have to check my family's assets?"

Cheng was so blocked that he couldn't speak, so he kept Liu Zhang crying here, and she left with her sleeves shaking.

Liu Zhang was really able to cry, and his head was buzzing. Zi Jin got angry and took the child up and threw it out. Jinyan looked at him and cried so pitifully, so he gave him the bowl of meat he had picked up.

.

"In the future, you will give me a bowl of meat, a big bowl!" Liu Zhang said arrogantly while eating.

Jinyan spat, "Who gave you a face!"

The next morning, Liu Yunxiang went to Lingyun Grain Shop.

Zhang Qi said that after the beginning of spring, floods occurred in several southern states, tens of thousands of people were displaced and the crops were flooded.

"The grain will definitely rise sharply this year, but I don't know if the grain we produce in the large area of ​​land in Zhenbei can be transported here to alleviate the soon-to-be famine."

In the past, I didn’t have to worry. The boss was the princess of Zhenbei, and no caravan would be stuck there. But now the situation is different. I’m afraid they can’t transport food only.

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said, "Let this be put in advance. As long as we have food, we are not afraid. By the way, you said that there was a flood in the south and the people were displaced. How can the government provide disaster relief?"

Zhang Qi sighed: "The riots in the south have just been settled, and the floods are about to occur again. Nine out of ten households of the people are empty, and the government is actually empty, and the treasury must not be full, so there is not much silver to invest in disaster relief. According to ours,

The shop manager and the client reported that the place in the disaster was full of hunger, and the situation was not at its worst. When the weather became hot, I was afraid that there would be plague. Then in autumn, there would be no food harvest in the field.

People will only be more desperate, let alone winter.”

"How much food do we have now?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

"Last year, Zhenbei has a good harvest, and there are almost 100,000 stones left."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Prepare, I need this 100,000 stone of grain."

Zhang Qi didn't ask what Liu Yunxiang was doing, but nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go downstairs and prepare it for you as soon as possible."

After coming out of Lingyun Grain Store, Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to bring Su Rumeng with her to say that she wanted to see the queen again.

When she returned to the Minister's Mansion, she came in from the back door and came to the gate of the west side courtyard. Jin Jinyan came back from outside. She was full of anxiety on her face, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her.

"Girl, the young master has fought with a few people in the front yard."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "Who is it?"

"It is said that people from the gambling house came to collect gambling debts."

Liu Yunxiang thought about it and guessed what was going on. She hurried to the front yard and saw Liu Yunxiang and a few slaves were entangled with several strong men.

"What's wrong with your Minister's Mansion? You can't owe debts and not pay them back!"

"It's clear that I'm going to be only ten days, it's been a month!"

"Mr. Liu has been in prison. If we can't get the money today, we won't think about it in the future. If you come to your Mr. Liu's mansion, you may be sealed!"

Liu Yunxiang walked over and shouted loudly: "Don't beat me!"

With this sound, Liu Yunheng saw that it was her, so he asked the people around him to stop, and then took a few steps back.

"You are from this family too, but are you here to pay back the money?" A gambling house guard looked at Liu Yunxiang and asked.

Liu Yunxiang ignored him and turned to Liu Yunheng, "But Liu Er owed a gambling debt?"

Liu Yunheng nodded with a calm face, "It's him."

"This is the second wife's business. Why are you rushing forward? Besides, you should show up." Liu Yunxiang frowned.

"This has hit the house, can I not show up?"

"Where is the second room guy?"

"My second uncle is still lying on the bed with a lame leg, his eldest brother is on the job, and his eldest sister-in-law is going to his mother's place."

"Have you asked for money?"

Liu Yunheng nodded, "We have to dismiss these people first."

Liu Yunxiang told her younger brother not to worry about it and quickly went back to her yard. After her younger brother left, she became more cautious and asked the people in the gambling house how much money Liu Er owed them.

"One thousand taels!"

One thousand taels are not much, but Liu Yunchang is not as good as a year's gap, let alone ordinary people, the annual food and clothing cost is only twenty or thirty taels.

Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to block these people. She went to the east courtyard where Mrs. Liu lived and came to the door of the main room. She was just hearing Mrs. Cheng say to Mrs. Liu: "Auntie, the people from the gambling house are outside, saying that if not

When they paid back the money, they smashed the front yard and back yard of our Minister's Mansion."

Mrs. Liu said angrily: "There are injustice and debts. If they want to harm the child, they should harm the child!"

"I don't recognize this, I only recognize that we are a family."

"But one thousand five hundred taels, you don't know what the situation in the mansion is. How could I take out so much cash at once?"

Cheng said silently, "Maybe my aunt can give me some more. I see that every meal in the Western Pianyuan is full of fish and meat. She must be rich."
