My imagination has come true

Chapter 683 Natural Disaster

For several days, it rained heavily in the capital.

The blacksmith's wife, Aunt Osmanthus, Aunt Liu's family, and a group of old aunts were sitting in the carriage, using the candlelight on the carriage to soak up the soles of their shoes and watching the rain outside.

Most of them are very familiar with this heavy rain.

In the past few years, Beijing has been experiencing troubles several times every year, but this is the first time that I can go out on a rainy day without getting my clothes wet, or go to the fields to look at the seedlings without having to walk.

"I didn't even wake up last night. This morning I was shocked when I saw it was raining heavily outside."

"Who says it's not the case? I got up in the middle of the night and looked around for earthen jars to get water. It took me a long time to think about it."

They now no longer live in the dilapidated thatched houses that make people nervous when it rains. They live in newly decorated stone houses. They are not afraid of rain, let alone hail.

The blacksmith's wife stuffed the sewn soles into the bag, and saw Aunt Guihua lying at the door of the car, worried, and quickly comforted her: "Didn't the court say that for families who suffered floods this year, the court would provide subsidies and help renovate their houses?" .”

Aunt Guihua's family had two daughters who married outside the family, and the family suffered a lot.

The folks in the car kept chattering.

Now that I was living the best life, with no worries about rain or snow, I naturally developed a compassionate heart.

Mu Qingyun now heard in his ears that someone's house had been damaged by floods again, and they had to live temporarily in a shack built by the court. There were signs of an epidemic.

It sounds like things are going to be tough again this year.

But in fact, compared with previous years, this disaster is not a big deal. Overall, the court has handled it well.

Their village was also slightly affected, not that the people suffered much, but that many of the crops were flooded.

However, once the crops were destroyed, the villagers also cried out for help, which was even more painful than what they suffered. Mu Qingyun was cried out by the villagers for a long time, and he quickly bought a lot of tarpaulins in large quantities. However, for the sake of economy, he bought cheap ones. , are all plastic products.

Putting up waterproof sheds on all the farmland, and digging ditches in some areas are quite tedious tasks. Mu Qingyun Village and the surrounding villages are actually a vast area with few people, and there are not many strong laborers who can work. Not much, usually machinery is used to cultivate the land.

She also thought that she could save half of the crops this time. Even if her tarp was not in vain, she was still ready to appease the villagers.

Unexpectedly, the result turned out to be quite good.

Both the old man and the old lady, who were over seventy years old, were full of energy and went to work in the fields in the rain. Although some losses were unavoidable, they were still able to survive.

Mu Qingyun couldn't help but marveled.

Xia He listened to his wife's praises for a long time. They were all hard-working people in Zhuangzi. They agreed with their mouths, but sighed a little in their hearts.

From this, it can be seen that my little lady has indeed descended from the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace to the mortal world, and she knows only a little about the things in the world.

How could the folks find it so hard? The tarpaulin that the young lady took out was covered with barbed wire and attached with serious support poles. It was so easy to use. What could even a seven or eight year old child do? Is it hard work?

"The little lady is so kind-hearted. She finds it hard to see whoever does what she does."

After all, he was a fairy who had to help the villagers fix several cars on his way out to do farm work.

Mu Qingyun: "... By the way, I would like to remind the folks, don't throw away the tarpaulin after it is worn out. You can return it in exchange for money or some rice and grain." Xia He: "..."

Of course, Mu Qingyun was not reluctant to part with a few rolls of 'plastic sheet', it was just a matter of pollution. If others didn't know and didn't care, she would always care about it.

It rained continuously for less than half a month.

Xia He picked up the bedding from the fireplace and went to make the bed. She had been drying her wife's bedding every day for the past few days. Without drying it, she always felt a bit damp.

Mu Qingyun wrapped himself in a warm quilt, took out the account book, and looked at it with Xia He and several other girls and servants.

She plans to allocate part of the food, and use some money to buy medicine and necessary supplies, and participate in disaster relief. The pressure on the court is also great, and there are always people who cannot take care of it.

For other wealthy households, it would be no problem to simply give up porridge and give medicine. If you dare to go too big, you are courting death. What do you want to do with your kindness to the world?

Mu Qingyun doesn't have these worries. With her current prestige, it doesn't matter whether she rescues the victims or not. The emperor must be afraid of her anyway, but she keeps it in her heart and will probably never say it out loud in her life.

In novels, there may be many plots in which ancient princes, generals and ministers did not take gods seriously. Chinese people are different from foreign countries in this regard. They have always respected ghosts and gods and kept away from them.

But this is reality. When real gods appear, no matter how worried the people in power are, it is difficult to resist them on the outside. The main reason is that nowadays the emperors all promote themselves as the emperor, and the people always believe in the divine right of kings. Once they confront them openly, Gods, exposing this lie will definitely shake the foundation of their own rule.

Mu Qingyun is now on good terms with the royal family of the Xi Dynasty, and they respect each other very much. As expected, she decided to maintain the relationship like this until the end of the script.

She certainly doesn't do anything herself, but she grows a variety of good food and vegetables, and imparts more knowledge and techniques to people of this era.

How this era will change depends on them.

"Aunt Niu, Aunt Wang, Blacksmith Sun, and most of the people in our village have already donated money and food."

Mu Qingyun raised his eyebrows and looked solemn: "Can someone organize it?"

She was worried that someone would use her name to provoke others, and the villagers would have no choice but to follow the herd.

Xia He shook his head: "At first, a few children took the initiative and used their own scholarships and pocket money to come out. Later, the adults also wanted to help."

"Tiejiang Sun also said before that his mother told him that when he was so hungry that he had only one breath left, the folks in the village donated a lot of food. At that time, they promised that if they encounter such a thing in the future, as long as they have enough money, , we must also help others, now is the time to fulfill our commitments.”

Mu Qingyun smiled.

Xia He sighed with a face full of emotion: "We are only thinking about this now, but it seems that we are far behind."

In fact, the emperor has always been paying attention to the situation in Houquan Mountain.

When Mu Qingyun's new village was built, he wanted to have the spies report three times a day. Knowing what these villagers were doing, he also sighed in his heart. He unconsciously sighed with his queen: "Fairy, even the common people are so big." His boldness and courage are amazing."

The queen also sighed: "The saying that people with sufficient warehouses know etiquette is probably because fairies are kind. Those people have enough to eat and drink, and live in abundance, so they also learn to be compassionate to others."

The emperor smiled: "All my people are like this, so if I reduce the food supply this year, it would be good if I can add one or two meters to the victims."

"Also, I want to worship the Dragon King to prevent natural disasters. I will leave this matter to Lao San."
