Chongzhen's open life

Chapter 325 Rescue Regulations ([-]-character chapter)
Chongnanfang is located near Guangqumen, and it is one of the few squares in the outermost part of the capital.

Because it is at the outermost periphery of the city, most people who come to Beijing from other places gather here, making it a bustling place on weekdays.

However, the sudden heavy snow made this bustling and bustling market fade away from the hustle and bustle of the past. All kinds of hawkers who set up stalls on the street hid back home, and the people outside the city also seldom entered the city in winter.

In the past, the crowded market seems to have turned into a ghost market overnight, only the snowflakes that can be seen everywhere cover the streets and alleys, and the eaves and roofs.

There was a sound of a shovel shoveling the ground, and beside a certain street in Chongnanfang, a tall and thin man was shoveling the thick snowdrift in front of his house with a shovel, shoveling it aside from the door of the house, so as not to be blocked by snow out of his own house.

"Pillar! Get up so early to shovel snow?"

Next door to the man's house, a woman brought out a basin of hot water and poured it on the snowdrift in front of her house.

The hot boiling water reacted instantly when it came into contact with the thick snowdrifts. The originally tall snowdrifts were melted by the hot boiling water and turned into steaming puddles.

After splashing the water, even the snowdrift melted, the woman nodded in satisfaction, turned her head, and saw the man who was hard at work shoveling the snow, and looked at the man's face that was exposed to the cold air and became red and swollen due to strenuous exercise. Slightly hot thick arms.

The scene of being surrounded by these powerful arms appeared in the woman's mind involuntarily, how safe it must be!
Thinking about the frail and thin appearance of her man, the woman couldn't help sighing.

Obviously, when he got married back then, his family was also a strong and strong man, but why has it only been more than ten years, and he is still in his thirties.

Thinking of last night, the woman showed dissatisfaction on her face, and then looked at the man next door, her face immediately felt a little hot.

But soon she covered up this strangeness, and greeted the man naturally.

"Ah, it's Miss Yu! That's right, it's been snowing all day and night, and there is no sign of stopping. If the snow at this door is not shoveled, it will be blocked, so I got up early today to give it a try. Let it go."

The man stopped, wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked back, it turned out to be Sister Yu next door, and immediately responded with a smile.

After hearing what the man said, the woman, Sister Yu, immediately nodded her head and said, "That's right, it's very, very bad. Of course, you have to work hard to get through the blockage. Otherwise, you won't regret it if you let someone else get through it." It's time."

Zhuzi: "Clam???"

Zhu Zi scratched his head in confusion, always feeling that the elder sister Yu's answer didn't seem to mean the same as what he said, who can kindly clean up the passage door of his own house?
Unable to understand, he could only smile awkwardly to show his politeness.

Seeing that he didn't understand, Sister Yu shook her head in disappointment, what a nice guy, but it's a pity that he was a little stupid.

Even then, he didn't say anything more, and after saying something about going home and cooking, he returned to the house, leaving Zhu Zi alone in the same place with a confused head.

For a long time, Zhu Zhu, who still didn't understand what this meant by the elder sister, shook his head, and continued to work, continuing to shovel the snow.

Such a scene is just a microcosm of Nuo Dajing City. The overwhelming snow has fallen all day and night, which has begun to affect the normal life of the people, and everyone has begun to clean up spontaneously.

It's just that this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. The snow in the sky is still falling. No matter how many times these people clean it up, it won't take long for the place that was just cleaned up to pile up a thick layer of snow again.

Finally, some old houses in disrepair failed to hold up and collapsed under heavy snow!
Boom!

The house collapsed into ruins. Fortunately, the owner's family escaped in time without being crushed by the collapsed house, and many of them escaped.

But looking at the ruins of their own home, the whole family wept, with despair in their eyes.

Losing their warm home in such weather, their family will not only face the crisis of food shortage, but what is more serious is that they will be frozen to death with nowhere to stay. How should the seven or eight members of this family live!

As the head of the family, Old Man Wang knelt down in the snow with a plop, and cried loudly as he watched the ruins of his family's house.

Old man Wang's wife and children saw him like this, and thought of the crisis that his family was about to face, they all felt sad and cried one after another.

The voice was so miserable that it made people cry when they heard it.

The neighbors around were also alarmed and ran out because of the news of the collapse of the house, but looking at the desperate old man Wang's family, they could only shake their heads helplessly, suppressing the impatience in their hearts, and walked back home quickly.

Now they are too busy to take care of themselves, and they don't necessarily have to take care of their own family. Wherever they have the ability to help Old Man Wang's family, it is too late to hide.

In this way, the people who had come out to watch quickly hid back home, and the surrounding area became empty again. Only the old man Wang's family was crying and wailing helplessly in the falling snow...

Just when the old man Wang's family felt that the future was dark, a ray of light shone into their hearts like the warm sun in winter.

A voice as sweet as the sound of heaven came from beside my ear: "Old man, we are servants of Shuntian Mansion, is your house collapsed by snow?"

The crying old man Wang turned his head with tears on his face, and saw a man in the uniform of a government official looking at him, followed by seven or eight people dressed in the same clothes.

Old man Wang was a little panicked. Although he didn't know what he had done, even the guards came, but the people's instinct of fearing the officials still made him wipe away his tears in fear and replied: "Master, this... It is indeed the little old man's home. Just now, the little old man's house couldn't bear it and was crushed by the snow. The little old man's whole family has no place to live now. The son's family is going to live on the street. Master, the little old family is miserable! Woooooooooo..."

As he spoke, Old Man Wang couldn't help crying.

To his surprise, unlike usual, today's guard did not scold him, but comforted him in a harmonious voice.

Suddenly, the young man in front of me, who should be the leader of the guard, stepped forward and gently helped the old man Wang up, and said in a harmonious voice: "Don't cry, old man, don't cry, old man, the imperial court will not let your family live on the streets. Don't worry, the imperial court has made arrangements for this situation, it's okay, it's okay."

Seeing the guard's reaction, old man Wang couldn't even care about being sad, and looked at the gentle-looking man in front of him with a dumbfounded expression.

Is this one of those high-spirited servants on weekdays?

Why did I take the wrong medicine today or did the sun come out from the west?
Why is this attitude?
This is not right!

I'm not used to old men like you, okay?

Shouldn't you scold me severely and say something like: "Hey! Old guy, isn't it just a collapsed house? Crying and crying, the noisy grandpa is upset, grandpa can tell you, your house collapsed, it's just a collapse. Grandpa doesn't care, but your family should pay no less tax!"

This is the normal development, okay?
Is this thing in front of you really a servant?I'm afraid it's not being dropped by someone!
Old man Wang was stunned, the leading officer had already sent someone to the ruins, and the officer who went to check came back after a while.

He cupped his hands and said to the leading young man: "Boss, it was indeed crushed by the heavy snow, and it was not malicious damage."

"Okay, then follow the procedure and report the name of this family to the rescue list."

"understood!"

-

After explaining to his subordinates, the leading officer turned his head and said to the old man Wang who was still in a daze: "Old man, what is your real name? Can you bring the quotations of your family members with you? The difficulties encountered by your family are in line with the relief issued by His Majesty yesterday." The ordinance, as long as you register your identities on the rescue list, you can receive assistance from the imperial court. The imperial court will first find you a temporary resettlement place, and all the items and food in it will be prepared, and the imperial court will be responsible for the supply.

When the winter is over, the imperial court will help you rebuild your collapsed house and restore your normal life order. "

"What? Rescue regulations? Arranging a place to live for the old man's family, as well as food, and helping to rebuild the collapsed house after the winter, is there such a good thing?

Master, you are afraid that you are not cheating on me, old man. I have lived for 50 years and I have never encountered such a good thing!Now the old man's house has nothing, you can't get any benefits! "

Old man Wang's mouth was so surprised that he could almost stuff an egg into it. Why can't he believe that there is still such a good thing in the world?
This is even more outrageous than the sun coming out from the west. When did the court become so kind?It's almost like a weasel giving a chicken New Year's greetings, which makes people panic.

Not only the old man Wang didn't believe it, but his family also didn't believe it. They even looked at the guards with vigilant eyes, and the defense in their eyes seemed to be undisguised.

Zhang Heng is helpless, why don't you believe it.This is the third wave today, and whenever he talks about the resettlement situation to the victims, they treat him as a liar.Could it be that Zhang Heng is that much of a liar?
Helpless is helpless, but it is his responsibility to explain it clearly to them. After he talked about it, and finally said that this is the time when the Holy One is sympathetic to the people and takes money from internal funds to subsidize the people, these people finally believe it.

Hurrah, Old Man Wang's family immediately knelt down in the direction of the Forbidden City, and kowtowed desperately while shouting thanks to the Holy Son of Heaven.

Finally, after registering the names of the old man Wang's family, the old man Wang's family took the paperwork issued by Zhang Heng to them and headed towards the Shuntian government office suspiciously.

Zhang Heng and his yamen servants quickly rushed to the next home of the people who received the news of the disaster.
