Chapter 125 Let’s help the people together

There is an aisle more than one meter wide in the middle opposite the warehouse door.

The people in the yamen boiled hot water, and Wei Ruo asked them to make extra ginger tea for everyone to ward off the cold.

Then she wrote a prescription for the little girl who had a fever, and gave the money for the medicine to Hong Ping, the government servant who had just followed her, and asked him to help him get the medicine.

Wei Ruo specially gave some extra silver coins and asked Hong Ping to grab a few more stickers to prepare. It had been rainy and windy these past few days, and it was possible that more than just the little girl had contracted the cold.

Xiumei rushed to find the nanny and asked her to deliver some supplies. There was a lack of quilts, food, and charcoal fire here.

Wei Ruo told Xiumei to change into clean clothes first when she goes to the nanny, and then come with the nanny.

Xiumei said worriedly: "What about you, Miss?"

Wei Ruo: "I'm fine, I'll talk about it later."

Xiumei: "But..."

Wei Ruo interrupted: "Go back quickly."

Xiumei had no choice but to agree: "Okay."

After finishing all this, Wei Ruo had time to ask Wei Jinyi: "Second brother, why did you come back early?"

"It's been raining for days, and I have a feeling something might happen in Xingshan County," Wei Jin also said.

This rain fell over a wide area, including Huzhou Prefecture, but the situation there was much better than in Xingshan County.

Wei Jin also probably guessed that Xingshan County might also be there, and due to insufficient congenital conditions, the situation would be worse.

Sure enough, when he came to Xingshan County, he found that the situation was very bad.

He was going to return to Xiaowei's Mansion first, but he met a servant from the Wei Mansion who was out to buy supplies on the way, and learned that Wei Ruo was not at the house since he had gone out.

He then guessed that Wei Ruo might have come to the south of the city. On the way out of the city, he met a team from the county government escorting people from the south of the city into the city. After asking, he found out that Wei Ruo was still in the south of the city, so he rushed over.

Wei Jin also looked at Wei Ruo's wet clothes and said, "Follow me."

Wei Ruo was still a little confused, so he was pulled into a side room by Wei Jinyi.

This room is a utility room, with a lot of debris piled up in it, but there is a clean chair and some clothes on the chair.

Wei Jin also brought Wei Ruo into the room, then went back to the door, closed the door, and said to Wei Ruo inside the door: "Change your shoes first."

Wei Ruo looked into the room, where there was a pair of newly purchased shoes and socks and a dry towel.

Wei Ruo's feet were soaked when he was in the fields in the south of the city, but he was busy taking care of the little girl and settling the people along the way, so he didn't have time to take care of it.

Wei Ruo's feet had been soaked in water. If he left them alone, even if he didn't catch a cold, it would be extremely bad for his feet.

Wei Ruo sat down and while changing his shoes and socks, he said to Wei Jinyi outside the door: "Second brother, when did you get these clean shoes and socks?"

"Let Xiaobei buy it." Wei Jin also leaned against the door, not squinting.

"Then how do you know what size shoes I wear?" Wei Ruo asked again.

A woman from a wealthy family usually has her shoes made to order, and most people won't know the size of her shoes.

"When you came back from the south of the city, the soles of your feet were covered with mud, and you left footprints on the ground."

"Second brother, you are so careful!" Wei Ruo praised.

Wei Jin outside the door did not answer the call, but warned: "After changing, if there is nothing going on here, go back to the house first. You need to take a hot bath and change clothes."

"Since you are going back, why do you bother asking me to change my shoes first?" Wei Ruo asked.

"It would be better to change earlier." Wei Jin also replied.

"Second brother, are you afraid that my feet will freeze?" Wei Ruo said with a smile.

There was another moment of silence.

Well, the answer is yes, but the second brother is unwilling to admit it himself.

After changing his shoes, Wei Ruo took away the used shoes and socks in a cloth bag prepared in advance.

Even thinking of this, the second brother is really attentive.

After going out, Wei Ruo said to Wei Jin: "Let's go back to the house. It's not just me, you should also take a hot bath and change clothes. Your body is your capital. If you want to save others, you must take care of yourself first."

Body."

"Don't you still have something to do?"

"It will take a while for the supplies to be delivered, and it will take a while for the medicine to be picked up. I can only wait here. Why don't I go back and clean myself up first."

Wei Jin also nodded. As long as Wei Ruo had no concerns, he would have no objection.

So Wei Jin also sent Wei Ruo back to Xiaowei's mansion.

Wei Jin also escorted Wei Ruo to the gate of Tingsong Garden and stopped there. Although Wei Ruo ran into his yard and even his bedroom many times, Wei Jin always followed etiquette and did not enter Wei Ruo's yard easily.

After watching Wei Ruo enter the house at the entrance of the courtyard, Wei Jin also returned to his courtyard and changed his clothes and shoes.

In Tingsongyuan's room, Wei Ruo didn't have time for someone to prepare a large amount of hot water for him to take a bath. In order to save time, Wei Ruo wiped his body with hot water and then changed into clean clothes.

Then he opened his regular medicine box and selected some medicines from a pile of bottles and cans to take with him.

The little girl may not be the only one among the people who were transferred to the Yamen warehouse today. Others may also be at risk of contracting cold or other diseases. They brought these commonly used medicines with them just in case they were needed.

Then Wei Ruo and Wei Jin reunited and prepared to go out again.

Just as the two were about to go out, Mrs. Yun, accompanied by her maid Cuiping, arrived at the door of Tingsongyuan and intercepted Wei Ruo who was about to go out again.

"Ruo'er, you can't go out anymore." Yun's expression was serious.

"I have important things to do." Wei Ruo replied.

"No matter how important it is, you can't run around outside all day long. Your second brother is a man and he can walk around. You can't do this."

Wei Ruo explained: "I'm not running around, I'm going to relocate the people in the south of the city. With the weather like this, if we leave the people in the south of the city alone, they will starve to death and freeze to death."

"The people in the south of the city have their own officials to take care of them. If you, a young lady, hang out with them all the time, you will have a bad reputation." Yun persuaded.

"I don't think I'm doing anything bad. I walk and sit upright, and I'm upright outside. Etiquette is used on weekdays. Now is a special period. Countless people are suffering. Any etiquette rules are not applicable.

Everyone should give way in the face of natural disasters." Wei Ruo stated his point of view firmly.

"Just because you think this way doesn't mean that others will think so too. When the rain passes and the sky clears up, what you are doing now will be considered outrageous and will attract criticism."

"Then I won't regret it then." Wei Ruo's eyes were firm and unwavering.

Yun Shi frowned: "Why are you so disobedient? Mom is doing it for your own good and is worried about you, fearing that it might affect you..."

At this time, Wei Jin also spoke: "I think my father, who is saving the people from disaster, will very much agree with my eldest sister's actions."
