Chapter 147 Donations

Chen Xuan knew that there would be a Japanese devils later, but she didn't know about the September 18th incident. She knew that Wei Shi went outside the pass, and then returned to Beijing, and nothing else was known. She rarely stepped out of the black painted door of the Wei family in her previous life, and she didn't know whether there were so many ragged refugees and beggars with yellow and hungry faces and silent eyes on the streets of the previous life. All the colors were all black and gray. The late autumn wind blew away all the joys of the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. It was a great blessing for those who came home safely like Wei Shi. And if there were relatives outside the pass, how worried and concerned the relatives should be. The Wei family knew these emotions very well.

Therefore, even though the shop outside the pass was closed, Mr. Wei still took his family to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with his family.

That is, now that prices are soaring, Mrs. Wei proposes to change to steamed buns in the future to save rice and flour and live a life. Even the milk that is set, Mrs. Wei also instructed Wei Nian to stop and not to set it for the time being. Because everything is rising, the same is true for milk. Now the milk price has increased by 50%, and Mrs. Wei feels sorry for the money. However, after Wei Nian rejected this matter, it is not enough for the rice and flour at home to eat for three years, and not to mention that it is not much money to order milk.

Old Mrs. Wei always listened to her son's husband. Seeing Wei Nian say this, her husband did not object, and she did not insist. Chen Xuan was a little surprised. She remembered that for a while in her previous life, the Wei family changed to steamed buns mixed with white flour and corn flour. Now she thought about it. It was probably during this period, and later changed it back to white flour. However, this time, the family had sufficient rice and flour, and Old Mrs. Wei's proposal did not work.

Chen Xuan still runs at both ends of the old house in the store, and everyone in the family is like this. People who do business and go to school. Because of the skyrocketing prices, the business in the store is not as good as before. The hot-selling goods are now food, and the prices of grain in the market have almost doubled compared to before. Therefore, it is not a big deal that Mrs. Wei wants to eat Erhe noodles to save rice and flour. The rice and flour are really too expensive now. However, in Chen Xuan's memory, there are still several years of peace. Chen Xuan believes that as long as life is peaceful, the price of grain should slowly drop.

People with small family wealth like the Wei family don’t have to worry about not having enough food. However, those families with poor family wealth, such as the landlord Xu family, are now eating cornmeal mixed with sorghum noodles. Chen Xuan will know that Xu’s food is not something she saw in the past. Life is not easy these days, and few people will go there when they eat at other people’s houses. Otherwise, do they want to keep food? People who pay attention to it will not do such things.

Chen Xuan would know that it was because she smelled it. The smell of steamed buns steamed with corn flour mixed with sorghum noodles. Chen Xuan had smelled it for many years in her life. She had eaten such steamed buns at her second uncle's house since she was a child. Chen Xuan was a little strange. She had previously reminded Mrs. Xu to save some rice and flour. Now Chen Xuan is busy and has less time when she goes to the Xu family. But in this case, she would not not remind the Xu family. Besides, the Xu family and Wei have always had a good relationship. Mr. Wei has informed all the relatives and friends that we have made, so he can't leave the Xu family. Why is the Xu family so difficult?

Chen Xuan fed the child in the evening and calculated that the Xu family should have supper, so she passed by.

Mrs. Xu has always liked Chen Xuan very much, but recently Chen Xuan has been busy and moved to the Wangfucang Hutong, and it has only been less. The early cabbage planted in the Xu family's vegetable garden this year has been harvested, and the cabbage and radish are both very good. When I saw the vegetable garden, Chen Xuan secretly asked Mrs. Xu. Mrs. Xu laughed, "Our master was talking about it, I'll remind you. Now the food at home is not worried about, but I don't know when it will be a mess. Beijing is like this, and if there is not peace, the food will rise. Although there is enough food at present, we have to prepare more."

Chen Xuan was relieved only then.

Mrs. Xu really felt that Chen Xuan was kind. Her daughter had just taught her to recognize a few words and borrowed a few books. Chen Xuan kept reading this. She taught her vegetables in the yard. This time shelves food in advance and Chen Xuan told her in advance. Fortunately, she had hoarded food, otherwise she would have really worried about the food for the rest.

Chen Xuan talked to Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Du, the newly married wife of the Xu family last year, came over with the newly steamed hot sweet potatoes and smiled, "It's sandy. Mrs. Wei tasted it, it's very sweet."

Chen Xuan hurriedly thanked him. Du brought it over, and it was not good not to eat it. Chen Xuan broke half of it and smiled, "I love to smell the fragrance of this sweet potato all my life."

Mrs. Xu laughed, "If you like it, eat more and put a plate for you later. Don't be polite to me, then you'll be a heretic."

Chen Xuan smiled and responded, biting the sweet potato, sweet and sweet sand. Even after eating, Chen Xuan felt that she would never get tired of eating the sweet potato. "I can't be polite to anyone with me," she said.

Du asked Chen Xuan, "Mrs. Wei's business has been doing well recently?"

"It's still good, but it's not as good as before. These days, things are causing trouble outside the pass, and the shops are not very prosperous. However, it's better than the previous few days. After all, the Northeast is still far from our Beijing, and it's not too chaotic here." Chen Xuan said, "As long as life is peaceful, you can recover in a few days."

Du wanted to ask Chen Xuan about the gossip. Chen Xuan said, "If the girl has time, just go to school. I will tell Ah Shu that we are not outsiders, so don't mention the tuition fee. Now there is a British order, which is not large in size, so it's more urgent to ask for goods. I don't have enough staff in my place. Girl, please learn to weave that first. Then we will help me."

Du smiled, "Then I won't be polite to my sister-in-law."

"Don't be polite, just like my aunt, you'll be a heretic." Chen Xuan said seriously.

After knowing that the food in Xu's house was enough to eat, Chen Xuan felt relieved. Perhaps Mrs. Xu thought that she was just a little good to Chen Xuan, but Chen Xuan would never forget that when she bit the bullet and borrowed books from the Xu sisters, the Xu sisters happily borrowed them. When she went to ask for words she didn't know, the Xu sisters would tell her. Also, if it weren't for Mrs. Xu's suggestions, Chen Xuan would not take the initiative to learn foreign languages ​​from Wei Nian. In fact, it's nothing great to learn foreign languages. There are many well-educated people in Beijing, and foreign languages ​​are so casual. However, foreign languages ​​broadened Chen Xuan's horizons and increased Chen Xuan's confidence. The first person to open this door for Chen Xuan was Mrs. Xu.

Great kindness.

Chen Xuan can't forget it anymore.

In fact, it is not only allowed for family members who are benefiting from the Wei family's reminder that each family is stocking up. Now that the price of grain is soaring, relatives and friends have to thank him when they see Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei is very happy. Even Chen Xuan has received thanks from several families. However, these thanks are unknown when they go out every day to see refugees coming and going on the road or people who cannot survive due to soaring prices.

Chen Xuan's realm is definitely not the kind of "I wish I could have thousands of houses to shelter all the poor people in the world to be happy". Chen Xuan is the kind of person who lives her own little life honestly. She just wants to live a good life. According to the truth, today's life is really good; by the truth, these people who are living in difficulties outside have nothing to do with Chen Xuan, but when she saw these people who are skinny and silent on the roadside, Chen Xuan still felt uncomfortable.

Chen Xuan couldn't say what the reason and why.

However, when Qin Shu called on everyone to donate money to help refugees, Chen Xuan felt a little sorry for the money, but she did not object.

After a period of anger among all walks of life at the Japanese occupying the Northeast, the business community organized donations to help Northeast refugees. The current scale of the business of several people is not considered a member of the Beijing Business Association. As for Wei Nian Wei Yin and Chen Xuan, together with Mr. Wei, he had no sense of donating money at all. The world is difficult now, and it is not easy to live a good life. The donation was led by Qin Shu, and Qin Shu talked to the three of them. Qin Shu said, "Since the big ones, I've been so happy.

After the Qing Dynasty, the east fought against the west. Fortunately, it was the civil war between us Chinese. Now it was different, it was a foreign invasion. You can tell the situation in the Northeast by just looking at the refugees in Beiping City. I heard that there are more refugees in Northeast China in Shandong and Hebei. We should donate some money. This is our intention. It is not only for refugees in Northeast China, but also for the country. We would rather be a peaceful dog than for people in troubled times. We would rather be a slave in troubled times."

Qin Shu is very knowledgeable about national justice. She wants to donate 500 yuan. Chen Xuan advised her to donate 100 yuan, but Qin Shu insisted on donating 500 yuan. Wei Nian said, "Okay, let's not donate in the name of individuals. Donate 500 yuan in the name of a factory." Seeing that Qin Shu was about to speak, Wei Nian stopped her first, and Wei Nian said, "Don't be anxious. The Northeast Army retreated into the pass. Now there are so many refugees coming again, and they are still afraid that taxes will not come. Taxes of various names are coming soon, and some are places to spend money. Now everything outside is increasing money, and our cosmetics have to rise."

Qin Shu donated money with great enthusiasm. The Beijing Business Association is said to have donated as much as 100,000 oceans. Of course, compared with 100,000 oceans, the 500 oceans donated by a few people is insignificant. However, after the donation from people from all walks of life, Qin Shu did not see any improvement in the refugee situation in Beijing. The roads are still everywhere, and the people who are living in life are becoming more and more difficult. The poor world has breeded countless malicious intentions, thieves, robbers, gangsters, and hooligans...

The inner city is relatively peaceful, but even Wang Damei would not go out to buy vegetables alone, but instead called Sister An to avoid the vegetable basket being robbed.

Qin Shu couldn't help but be disappointed with the authorities.

At this time, Qin Shu received an invitation to the dance party. This dance party was a charity dance party, and the purpose was to raise donations for Northeast refugees in Peking City. Qin Shu thought about it and asked Chen Xuan and Wei Yin to go with him. Wei Nian would naturally accompany them. Qin Shu said, "You can go to other dance parties. As long as you can go to the charity dance party, you have to go. Although we have to donate some money, we can do it within our ability. After all, we have donated it before." Qin Shu is not a little man, but after the last donation, Qin Shu was cautious about donations.

When the dance party was over, several people donated some, not a large amount. The stars that night did not belong to any of them. The lights that night belonged to Ms. Wen and Ms. Chen, as well as the daughter of the mayor of Korean mayor in Peking. The three of them had made an appointment, and each donated 10,000 yuan of donations. Even Ms. Chen did not forget to promote Daxingsheng. Ms. Chen said, "Now the national crisis is in the face of the country, we Daxingsheng have decided to respond to the government's call to stabilize prices. Various cosmetic brands will launch patriotic funds. As long as it is patriotic funds, they will still be sold at the previous prices and will never increase the price!"

Thinking of the price that "Siqing" had just raised, Chen Xuan and Wei Yin were stunned at that time!
