Chapter 213 Warm New Year Gifts in the City(1/3)
Chapter 213: Warm New Year's gifts are prepared in the city, and refugees outside the city have no grass roots
Time flies, and it is approaching the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.
Feng Yibo has returned to his step-by-step life.
By the end of the year, many ceremonies will be prepared.
The Ministry of Rites is also rare to be busy.
Seeing that the year is approaching, Baochai is also busy handling the year.
This is her first year of marriage to Feng’s Mansion, so she naturally wants to be extremely considerate.
The season outside this year is not good, and many prefectures in Wei Dynasty have caused constant natural disasters.
Even Jiangnan was not spared.
It rained continuously for several months in some places, and the sun was gone.
Some are cracked due to drought and have no dripping moisturization.
There were even a few places in Jinling that were hail.
Many farms are inadequate to collect, and even a few are already inadequate to collect.
Similarly, Shandong's two prefectures have suffered a severe drought this year.
The court sent people to provide relief, but it was also a drop in the bucket.
Countless people became refugees and scattered to various prefectures begging for life.
Some farmers who originally had land had to sell their land.
Just for a chance to survive.
This made many nobles and wealthy businessmen move.
It's like a bloody shark.
In this way, he blatantly enclosed land at a low price in Qilu and bought a slave.
The harvest here is considered good, but it made a tartar again.
Many people in the suburbs have robbed the winter food.
Many young and strong people were also abducted and became slaves to the Tatars.
This has led to sparse populations in the suburbs, and the supply in the city is naturally almost cut off.
Although there are merchants everywhere, the price is extremely high.
And there is still a shortage of all kinds of winter supplies.
Let's say so.
Nowadays, even eggs have increased from one money to more than a dozen.
Not necessarily available.
The rich and noble families in the city want to maintain a luxurious life.
All the money was sprinkled out like flowing water.
Compared with previous years, it would cost more than ten times the price.
Even if you want to raise a New Year gift, you not only have to spend a lot of money.
It has to be pieced together to barely behave well.
This impact will last for a long time, but the Feng family has not changed much.
The Feng family's warehouse is rich in supplies, and the exchanges there are not affected.
It won't be anything short.
After all, even fruits and vegetables are a bit storage-resistant, and a lot of them are delivered together when transporting wood.
In addition, there are not many people walking around the Feng family.
So Baochai dealt with it very quickly.
Most of her follow the old rules of last year, she simply added a few close relatives from the Xue family.
"Master, I want to discuss something with you."
During the day, the New Year ceremony was handled.
At night, the order also reached Baochai's side.
At this time, she leaned in Feng Yibo's arms, but thought of the discussions of the people in the world.
I couldn't help but feel hesitant.
Feng Yibo was fiddling with her jade hands, and felt as gentle as jade.
That's not enough.
Her other hand wrapped around her slender waist and felt the ups and downs.
Sometimes it moves up and down.
Seeing her look, I groped and said curiously:
"Now there are no outsiders, so what can I say directly?"
Baochai's face suddenly turned red slightly, and she knocked off the hand that was causing trouble, and then she said:
"Master, I heard from the people below that the people in the suburbs are now unable to eat, and many people will die of cold and starvation..."
During the day, I heard the discussions of the people, and they all talked about the miserable people in the suburbs.
She has been thinking about it in her heart.
Although Baochai is firm in front of others, she is kind-hearted.
Anyone who has difficulties will help you.
And he will also be careful and take care of the other person's face.
But obviously, today this incident made her have a good idea.
But I feel that I lack strength and I can help only a limited amount.
But after thinking about it, it should be discussed with Feng Yibo.
See if you can do your best.
"So you want to help the people?"
When Feng Yibo heard this, he immediately understood what she was thinking and said with a smile:
"You make your decision to serve porridge or clothes, and you are the mistress of our family. Why ask me about this?"
On weekdays, he supports Baochai and wants her to find something she likes to do.
But Baochai is a human being, and she values the most virtues of women and women's words.
He was at home all day long, either as a girl or talking with Li Meng.
He also united his wives and concubines, and brought Miaoyu and the You sisters together.
In addition to the affairs of the mansion, he explained to the four sea business affairs.
The rest never take the initiative to do anything else, and do not make any requests.
Today, my young wife rarely speaks to him.
Feng Yibo needs to support him no matter what.
"But……"
Baochai was a little hesitant, afraid that it would be difficult to grasp the standards.
You can help others, but you can't ignore your own family.
She could not ignore the human heart of this family.
As soon as Feng Yibo saw it, he guessed it.
After pondering for a moment, he said:
"You just do what you want, just leave a month's rice and grain at home, and someone will fill it in later."
Liu Qiu kept coming and going, and was not affected.
As long as you keep giving instructions now, it will take less than a month.
Rice and grain can naturally be transported back.
Baochai knew that if her husband dared to say this, he would be absolutely sure.
Suddenly, there was a look of surprise and a hint of admiration.
"Pop!"
