The fundraising of Happy Building has received enthusiastic support from people from all walks of life. The charity fundraised this night was almost 300 million taels.Of course, apart from the singing and dancing of the Happy Lou girl, the biggest encouragement should be the regent Chu Ye.

Not only did he come to the scene, but he also donated 10 taels of silver first.In addition, Concubine Wen also donated 5 taels, and the two played an exemplary role. The merchants and nobles behind would not dare to be less than this amount.Naturally, there are also some enthusiastic people who are not ashamed of brothels to participate in fundraising, but because they are doing good deeds, they don't care about so much, and they all enter the venue to respond to the charity deeds.

As the host, the Liu family donated 200 million taels after doing good deeds.The Tea Merchants Alliance also donated 200 million taels as a disaster relief fund to purchase grain and transport it to Eucalyptus.

Yin Le noticed that Chu Ye had a gloomy expression when he saw her appearing in the Happy Building, but then he suppressed the unhappiness and showed a polite smile. She was relieved and let Bai Zi proceed according to the original plan.

For this night's fundraising, Happy Building, as an independent business, donated 10 taels, and the 10 taels came from Yufengjiao.With Yin Le's toothache-like voice, Bai Zi added another [-], and said expressionlessly, "If I see your distressed expression again, I will donate all the property of Yufeng Sect."

Yin Le knew that Bai Zi would do what he said, so he didn't dare to say anything, but he had a lot of slander in his heart.

Mr. Liu had no idea that the money was sent to Guzhou. He knew that Guzhou was in a drought-stricken area, and he had thought of helping the people of Guzhou. The area bought grain, but the steward came back and reported that the nearby grain had been emptied by big merchants, and several states and counties near Eucalyptus had no surplus grain for sale, and even if there was, the price was very expensive.

In desperation, he had to order someone to go to the west of Guangdong to buy rice.The rain there is abundant and the harvest is good. There should be a large amount of grain for sale.

At this time, Yin Le also used the money raised from the fundraising to purchase a large amount of grain from Xiangguo, which was being transported to Eucalyptus and several nearby counties.

On this day, the magistrate met with local gentry and celebrities again. Mrs. Wen didn't want to look at people's faces any more. There was nothing he could do to help, so he reasoned that he was in poor health and resigned the invitation from the magistrate.

Unexpectedly, not long after sending someone to talk, the magistrate brought everyone to visit in a hurry.

Mr. Wen was so shocked that he had to lie on the bed and pretend to be sick.

"Old man, are you feeling better?" The magistrate is quite different from his sad face in the past. Now his face is full of concern, and there is a hint of joy in the corner of his mouth.

Old Mrs. Wen got up slightly, and apologized: "Excuse me, my lord, came here on a special trip, and hindered my lord from discussing things with you, this old man is really guilty!"

The magistrate sat in front of the bed, held him down, and said with a smile on his face, "The lower official came here today to thank the old man. This time, the people of Anzhou will be saved!"

Old Mrs. Wen looked at the prefect suspiciously, with wrinkles on his face, and said: "Why did you say that? The people in Anzhou have been saved, and where did you start? Why should you thank me?"

Mr. Zhou, who had always been against Mr. Wen, snorted coldly, and said contemptuously: "Pretend, you pretend, who doesn't know that your poor son-in-law prepared a large sum of money and bought it from Xiangguo?" A large amount of food is now on its way to Eucalyptus!"

When Mr. Wen heard what he said about his son-in-law, he immediately lowered his face, and said in a deep voice, "I won't be reconciled if you're not mad at me, am I? After fighting for a lifetime, you know how to use this matter to stimulate me, and you also know how to do other things." Is it? I don't welcome you here, get out with me!"

The magistrate quickly comforted him and said: "Don't be angry, Mr. Zhou is not angry with you, what he said is true, your son-in-law, who is also the owner of the Longxing Tea House in the capital city, held a fundraising event together with the current prince regent. Banquet, raised a large sum of money, bought a lot of food, and is on the way to deliver it. I received the documents early this morning, and I called everyone to the mansion today to discuss and distribute the food."

Seeing that the magistrate also said the same thing, Mr. Wen couldn't help but get angry, "Lord magistrate, I'm afraid this is a joke. No matter how much you change the poor boy back then, he can't change the owner of Longxing. I'm afraid someone has ulterior motives to warm me up." Let's add another joke to the house." After finishing speaking, he gave Mr. Zhou a cold look.

Mr. Zhou was already aggrieved in his heart. Wen Yunxiu, who had eloped away in the past, had always been a tool for him to attack the Wen family, but now he has become the greatest glory of the Wen family. He had to follow the magistrate to thank him because of his affection. , he felt as disgusted as eating a fly.Now that I heard Mr. Wen's suspicion, I couldn't help but sneered and said, "Yes, I wish I could frame your family!"

Wen Dong said from the side: "Grandpa, the concubine sent a letter a few days ago, she did say that Longxing's boss is uncle, but grandpa tore up the letter before reading it."

Old Man Wen opened his mouth wide and looked at Wen Dong in astonishment, "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's true, but the concubine didn't mention buying food for disaster relief in her heart, so grandson didn't know that the food relief food was delivered to Eucalyptus for a while." Wen Dong said honestly.

Old Mrs. Wen's originally angry pupils now suddenly glowed, but his mouth was still stubborn and said: "He is him, I am an old man, and the two families have not been in contact for decades. Besides, Ranan'er has passed away long ago. How many wives are there now?"

The Wen family never allowed the matter of Wen Yunxiu and Liu Qinglin to be mentioned, so when Liu Qinglin sent a family letter saying that after Wen Rongxiu passed away, the Wen family had never contacted the Liu family, and Mr. Wen did not know that the domestic tea merchant giant was his son-in-law.What's more, she didn't know that her son-in-law hadn't gotten married since Wen Yunxiu's death, and was single till now.

The magistrate said with admiration: "Dong Liu's family has only married one wife in this life, and that is the daughter of the Wen family, Wen Yuxiu. Ever since Wen Yuxiu passed away, Dong Liu's family has been single. Even though there are many beauties who come to be close to him, he is still married. Never been tempted."

Mr. Wen couldn't believe it when he heard the words, "I'm afraid Madam doesn't have one, but there are few concubines in the mansion? Ran'er is not good-looking. Even if he doesn't take concubines after he gets rich, he must have many wives. Otherwise, why would Ran'er die so early?" ?”

When Wen Yuxiu died, the Liu family's business was not as prosperous as it is now. Wen Yuxiu had a hard life in her early years, gave birth to three sons, her body was not well adjusted, and she had to continue to take care of various things for the family, and often worked for Liu Qinglin's business. Therefore, when Liu Qinglin's business improved, she was already sick.

Because everyone didn't know the inside story, they didn't dare to say more.It's just that seeing that Mr. Wen's expression is no longer as resistant and disgusted as before, they are all a little happier.Wen Dong ordered people to make preparations, and asked several important figures in Eucalyptus to discuss the distribution of food.
