Farmer's clever woman busy farming

Chapter 798
Gu Jiujiu arranged for Mrs. Hu and the boy to live in the house, and then sent the letter written by Mrs. Hu to her husband-in-law at the address she said.

Since there was no food in the shop, Gu Jiujiu bought some more food and put it in the shop for Mrs. Hu and the boy.

Besides eating, Gu Jiujiu also bought a box of golden sore medicine for Mrs. Hu.

Madam Hu took the golden sore medicine from Gu Jiujiu's hand with a grateful face, and thanked her repeatedly.

"Mrs. Hu, you and my brother will live in peace in the shop until your husband-in-law comes to pick you up." Gu Jiujiu said with a smile.

After Madam Hu and the boy were settled, Gu Jiujiu and Yan Shi left the shop with Brother Yan and the others in a carriage.

When going back, Gu Jiujiu saw many refugees on the road, some were hungry and pale, and some were sitting on the side of the street with their stomachs clutched, and they just felt sad for a while.

One or two refugees, Gu Jiujiu and Yan Shi can save them, but it's too much, and they can't help them.

After thinking about it, Gu Jiujiu decided to ask Shen Kuo to go to the Yamen tomorrow when he came back at night to suggest that the county magistrate build a porridge shed to serve porridge.

The matter of the refugees in Ji County can only be resolved if the county magistrate is in charge.

Gu Jiujiu told Yan Shi about his idea, and Yan Shi also agreed, "Xiao Jiu, if the county magistrate is willing to give everyone porridge, even if everyone has no place to live, at least they can have a full meal. .”

However, it was completely dark that night, and Shen Kuo hadn't come back yet.

Yan shi left a meal for Shen Kuo, and Gu Jiujiu and the others ate first.

Back in the house, Gu Jiujiu lit an oil lamp, and while looking at the account book of the oil shop, he waited for Shen Kuo to come back.

Later, feeling a little tired, Gu Jiujiu closed the account book and lay down on the table for a nap.

I don't know how long it took, but when Gu Jiujiu woke up, it was already dawn.

Rubbing her sore neck, Gu Jiujiu found that Shen Kuo hadn't come back yet?
It is rare for Shen Kuo not to come back for one night, even if he comes back late sometimes, he will definitely come back.

Feeling strange, Gu Jiujiu decided to go to the yamen after breakfast to ask, what happened?

The yamen servants in the yamen already knew Gu Jiujiu. When they saw Gu Jiujiu driving a carriage, they smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you here? Did you come to look for Brother Shen?"

"Well, yes, I did come to him." After finishing speaking, Gu Jiujiu looked at the servants and asked, "I wonder if I can trouble you to find my husband?"

"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid this won't work." The yamen servants looked at Gu Jiujiu with a look of embarrassment and shook their heads.

"Why?" Gu Jiujiu asked subconsciously.

"Sister-in-law, it's like this." After speaking, the yamen's servants looked at Gu Jiujiu and explained briefly, "A lot of refugees who escaped from the flood have come to the market these days. Master Ling suggested building a porridge shed to serve porridge, and the county magistrate agreed. Brother Shen and the county magistrate have been busy building the porridge shed. After leaving the Yamen yesterday, Brother Shen has not come back. It is estimated that Brother Shen will My son should be busy with the county magistrate about the porridge shed."

Gu Jiujiu came to the yamen to find Shen Kuo. Apart from asking him why he didn't go back last night, he wanted him to suggest to the county magistrate to build a porridge shed to serve porridge.

After hearing what the officials said, Gu Jiujiu didn't ask any more questions, and said with a smile, "In that case, I'll go back first."

"Sister-in-law, go slowly. If Brother Shen returns to the yamen, we will tell him that you came to look for him." The yamen servants said to Gu Jiujiu with a smile.
