I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 795
The cold winter in the Northeast is difficult. The mountains are covered by heavy snow and the people are trapped in the villages. Their food depends on the people's accumulated storage. Once the firewood and food are gone, the whole family can only wait to die.

Taking into account the situation in the Northeast, Ziheng specially distributed extra food relief to the old and the weak for the winter, so that the people would not be able to receive food if the mountains were blocked by heavy snow.

In ancient times, people rarely had warm cotton-padded clothes, and most of the winter clothes were filled with Ula grass. Once the road was blocked by heavy snow, the people dared not come to the county, because there was no warm clothes, and they would catch wind and cold if they went back and forth.

Ziheng was in Yunzhou Fucheng, and Heng Qiye felt something was wrong this day, opened the curtains and saw that it was snowing heavily outside.

Ziheng was a little worried. Is there so much snow in the Northeast?Why is it snowing all over the place?

Early the next morning, Ziheng heard the sound of snow falling outside, so he got up quickly and sent someone to ask the people if the winter snow was normal this year?

When Jiao Huwei came back, Ziheng had already finished his breakfast. His breakfast was rich and he had fresh bamboo shoots to eat in winter. Thanks to the convenient sea transportation, Ziheng was able to eat the vegetables his parents gave him.

Jiao Huwei went out for a trip, his ears were red from the cold, and it took him a while to dissipate the cold air when he entered the room. Seeing that the prince hadn't removed the breakfast, he knew it was for him. He first reported the situation, "The people said that there is more snow this year than in previous years. , the people are worried about snow disasters."

Ziheng signaled Guard Jiao to have breakfast first. If it were really a snowstorm, I don’t know how many people would die. His tone was urgent, "Before the heavy snow doesn't close the mountain, send people to chop more firewood and store it."

Jiao Huwei swallowed the steamed stuffed bun in his mouth, "This subordinate leads the team to chop firewood himself."

Ziheng sighed, "If it's really a snow disaster, the people in the village will suffer again."

Jiao Huwei thought more openly, but he felt sorry for the son and worried too much, "When the emperor didn't take it back to the northeastern states, many people died of cold winter every year, son, now the people have repaired houses for heating and relief food. It's better than when there were no troubled times, don't be sad."

You must know that before the troubled times, the people relied on wild vegetables to feed their hunger, and the imperial court would not provide relief food. Now not only relief food, but the medical department also sends doctors to treat the people. The good days that were unimaginable before have all been realized now.

Ziheng didn't get angry when he heard that, because he didn't seek his own affairs when he was not in his position. Guard Jiao was his personal bodyguard, and his job was to protect his safety.

Jiao Huwei sincerely believes that the people's life is good enough now, but Ziheng hopes that the people's life will be better, and that the Northeast will be prosperous quickly.

It snowed heavily for a day and a night, forming a snow disaster. The soldiers wore wool gloves to clear the snow, and still had chilblains on their hands, which shows how cold the outside temperature is.

In the city, only the soldier Qingxue can be seen, but not a single person of the people can be seen.

Ziheng walked around the city and found that the situation inside the city was fine, but he was worried about the villages outside the city.

When the snowstorm in the northeast spread to the south, Yang Xi and his wife went to their home in Shanghe Town. They had been away for a long time this time, and Yang Xi's master, Mr. Xie, returned to Jingzhou.

The couple rested at home for a day, and the next day they went to school, and the two got a list of students going to the north. Good guy, nearly one-third of the students went to the north!
After looking through the list, Yang Xi said, "I still wonder why the school is quite deserted, so they all went to the north."

Zhou Yu saw many problems from the list, "The children of the Ming clan have all gone to the north."

This is because Xixuan did not allow the Ming family to enter the capital, and the Ming family sent all the children of the family to the north to investigate the situation.

Yang Xi pointed to the children of the Bai family, "Many of the Bai family also went."

Zhou Yu closed the list, "Ming Jiao and other patriarchs are not easy to be, the big family drives the patriarch to seek profit."

Yang Xi, "I just hope they have a sense of proportion, otherwise Xixuan won't be polite."

After all, it's been a friendship for many years, and I really don't want to see anyone's family disappear.

Zhou Yu thought of the Zhou clan, so he would continue to beat the clan, lest the Zhou clan become arrogant. When the time comes, Xixuan doesn't need to attack, he will take the first step.

Yang Xi and his wife went to the laboratory. In the laboratory of the college, all the things they researched were taken away by Xixuan. At present, only some students' research is left.

The two came back to answer questions for the students, and this was a busy day.

After returning home from school, Ye Shun and Brother Wu came together. Yang Xi and his wife went north to inquire about the two, but they refused. This time they came to inquire about the situation in the north.

Ye Shun had a heart-to-heart with his parents and brothers. When he was a spy in the north, he passed by his hometown and couldn't resist going back, but his hometown was long gone.

When the two gentlemen went north, he struggled. His wife persuaded him after seeing his thoughts. He was thinking of going back to the north next year when the two gentlemen came back.

Boss Wu has nothing to worry about. The Wu family has no grievances with their relatives. The Wu family was not a family back then, and there were not many relatives and friends. He didn't go back to the north because he knew the situation in the north, so he was not in a hurry to go back.

Zhou Yu did not go to the Northeast, so Yang Xi talked about what he saw in the Northeast, "Hey, many villages have few families, and some villages have become empty villages, and the fields in the Northeast are all desolate."

Wu Shan is not young anymore, his eyes were red when he heard this, "My hometown is very remote, and I don't know what the situation is in my hometown."

Yang Xi comforted, "I think it's easy to hide in remote places, but more people can survive."

This is also the pattern she discovered, and the survival rate of the people in the villages backing the mountain is also high.

Wu Shan wiped his eyes with his sleeve. When fleeing back then, many villagers were reluctant to leave, hoping to see familiar people alive. "Are you going to the north next year?"

Zhou Yu said: "We won't go to the north for a while. We will stay in Jiaozhou next year on the Jianguo."

Wu Shan patted his forehead, he also heard the news, "Look at my memory."

Ye Shun asked about the situation in other states in the north, and Zhou Yu told what he saw. The conditions in the northern states were better than those in the Northeast. Unfortunately, he didn't pass by Ye Shun's hometown, so he didn't know the situation in his hometown.

Zhou Yu continued: "When the Jiaozhou incident is over, we will return to the north for the winter, and then we can return to the north together."

Ye Shun and Wu Shan nodded repeatedly, and followed the two gentlemen to go north, which would save them a lot of trouble.

Yang Xi and his wife were very busy when they returned to Shanghe Town. They went to the school to teach during the day and came back at night to pack up manuscripts and books. It was rare for them to find time to teach Zilu and Zhenyuan brothers.

Even if the husband and wife did not show anything, the villagers of Shanghe Town knew that the two gentlemen rarely returned to Shanghe Town this year, and the villagers knew that the two gentlemen would leave sooner or later.

As for the Zhou family school, no one has asked Yang Xi and his wife yet, but they have already made plans.

Yang Xi found out that there were people delivering melons, fruits and vegetables in front of his house.

Yang Xi said to Zhou Yu: "The villagers in Shanghe Town are very smart, they already know that we will leave."

Zhou Yu felt reluctance to give up, but they will return to the north after all.

During this period, Zhou Lin wrote a letter home and came back. Wei Ru's month is coming, and the couple will not be back this New Year.

Zhou Lin left Ezhou in summer, and the couple went to Zhangzhou. Zhou Lin was still in charge of the reform of military households. Wei Ru could only help because she was pregnant. The young couple had a good life. Zhou Lin's letter was full of expectations for the newborn.
