reborn child bride

Chapter 503: Acting like a spoiled child (1)
"No, I was thinking, if when I was young, someone would think of giving us a sip of hot soup from the beginning of winter to the beginning of spring, maybe a lot of things would be different."

"Well, as you have seen, those ladies are not bad at heart, they just don't know that there are so many poor people in this world. Of course, some of them are naturally more indifferent, thinking that these things are fate and have nothing to do with them. They Giving porridge for a few days can make you feel at ease. However, no matter what kind it is, since I have entered it online, I will let them contribute money and efforts together, and call on more people to join in. Some things are done too much , and it becomes a habit.”

"Why did the lady do this?"

Shen Ji smiled, and took Xiao Zhizhi into his arms, "I don't believe that you guys haven't checked my background. When I was a child, I used to wake up hungry every night in the middle of the night, and then go to the water tank to scoop up a ladle of water to relieve my hunger and continue to sleep. "

Xiao Zhizhi looked up at Shen Ji, with a very puzzled look, "Mother?" Mother was also hungry like those people just now?
Shen Ji rubbed her head and didn't say much.

"What is the lady going to do?"

"I've just said that it's better to teach someone to fish than to teach him to fish. Mrs. Wang, here we are." Shen Ji still felt that Mrs. Wang, who was very skillful in house fighting, might be approaching him on purpose.Even if not, her husband-in-law is the head of the Cao Gang, and she is the magistrate's wife. There are huge interests involved here, so she should keep some distance.Just now in front of so many people, she wanted to follow her into the carriage, so don't refuse it explicitly, but she couldn't let this woman feel that they were already very close.She has always treated these ladies as close or distant.

"Which lady is usually close to Mrs. Wang?"

Mrs. Wang said she was the wife of the great businessman Wu's family.After getting out of the car, Shen Ji asked Mrs. Wu to come over, "I took Mrs. Wang to the slums and touched some bad memories of her. I also asked Mrs. Wu to take care of Mrs. Wang later."

Mrs. Wang's background is not a secret, and Shen Ji himself is the one who confessed his background, so it doesn't really matter.But Mrs. Wang still cared about this matter before.Those concubines kept mocking her for her low status, so she tried her best to suppress them.But I didn't expect that the magistrate's wife didn't care to tell the tragedy of the past in person.

Everyone sat down in the elegant room again, all placing their hopes on Shen.She has the highest status here, and this matter is considered her advocacy, so it is natural to hear what she is going to do.

"That's right. Just now I said that it's not about helping the poor, so it's impossible for the wives to go home to ask for money to support so many poor people. What I mean is, we form an organization with strict discipline to help those who deserve help." and those who should be helped.”

Sitting next to him, Mrs. Liu Tongzhi said, "Madam, can you be more careful?"

"Well, the so-called people who are worth helping are self-motivated children. You can send them to read and write or learn a craft to make a living, so that they can earn their own living in the future. They won't hang out on the streets at a young age. They grow up like this I am afraid that my children will easily take risks in the future. If they can be brought into the right path, it will be due to the merits of all the ladies here."

The wife of Meng Tongzhi, who succeeded Wu Tongzhi, asked, "Then who should help?"

"It's those lonely old people who have nothing to support. They have no means to make a living, and they can only rely on the help of the court and kind people to prevent them from dying miserably."

As soon as these words were said, everyone in the room began to think and thought it was a solution.The scene they saw today was very stimulating to them, and following the prefect's wife to do this good deed, not only can they gain a good reputation, but also make the relationship with the prefect's wife closer, the cost is only some money, why not not for.

"Okay, the sage said" People don't only kiss their relatives, they don't only have sons and sons, so that the old will die, the strong will be useful, and the young will be strong. If there are points, women will return. "Madam is following the teachings of the sage. We will definitely follow and do our part."

Shen Ji looked over, and it was the second young lady of the Ruan family who was known as the talented woman among the wives who spoke out.I heard that after she gave birth to a son, she kept pushing her sister-in-law over.Seeing that Mrs. Ruan was attracted to Xiao Zhizhi because of her daughter, and because she was Young Mistress Rong Qi's cousin, he looked at her differently.The second young lady's arrogance had to be suppressed a little, and this person had always wanted to befriend her, but she never found a suitable opportunity.These few words just now sounded flattering, but they praised people very highly, but they felt at ease after hearing them.

Shen Ji didn't want to take care of the Ruan family's housework.So he smiled and said: "The second young lady is absurd. I also felt it when I saw two children helping me push the cart in the cold wind today. Let's try our best to do something. Let's find a way to let those poor people live A good year. Then I will come up with a specific charter and implement it in the next year. As for the money, I mean, everyone just treat it as a rejoicing merit. You also need to supervise me, so we will elect a person in charge of supervision. As for I will be the leader first. It will be rotated once a year, so that even if I leave Yangzhou Mansion in the future, this matter can continue."

The second young lady of the Ruan family said again: "I think since we are going to do it, let's choose a name."

Everyone agreed, and finally decided to call it the "Compassion Society", with Shen Ji as the first chairman and in charge of money.Mrs. Liu Tongzhi and Mrs. Wang were elected to supervise the use of money, while Mrs. Ruan Shao was responsible for the accounts.

Shen Ji said on the spot that he was willing to give 2000 taels of silver, and everyone also said the pledged amount, and Mrs. Ruan Shao wrote it down, and it will arrive tomorrow.All kinds of people also collected 5000 taels.

Shen Ji picked up the record with a smile, "Okay, it's getting late, I originally invited everyone to have dinner. But today is the winter solstice, and I have to go home to eat glutinous rice balls and reunite with my family, so I won't bother you." If the money doesn't arrive tomorrow, I will send someone to the door to collect it."

Everyone laughed and said that the child was delivered to the house early in the morning.

However, the fighting scene in the building is still going on. Although there are no noble ladies who spend a lot of money, the fanciers downstairs are still enthusiastic.Some are the reputation of Mu Ran Lou, and some are the reputation of the Mu opera troupe. These are the people who really support the business of Mu Ran Lou.

Just now at the first meeting of the Compassionate Society, Shen Ji concluded with "Giving plum blossoms to others will leave a lingering fragrance in their hands" and vigorously encouraged the atmosphere, so at this time everyone went down another staircase, listening to the sound of blowing and beating inside , There is a feeling of sublimation in my heart.They are no longer the ones who know that they are using money to fight for opera singers in the afternoon.

On the carriage, Ji Bai whispered, "Madam, I went to see the slums with you today, and Ji Bai also remembered his childhood. Hearing what you said just now, I really want to cry."

Shen Ji wiped his face, and I was sensational for a long time, if it didn't work at all, then I was talking in vain.Except for Xiaozhizhi who didn't understand much just now, everyone else almost cried because of her incitement.If you haven't witnessed it yourself, the effect will definitely be worse.Of course, those wives are also human beings. Even if they were touched by the tragic scene they saw today and moved by her sensational Hua Yu, it was only temporary.To attract them to follow me and keep doing it, there must be benefits.The ensuing good reputation and the close connection with the magistrate's wife are the real reasons why they are willing to keep investing.Of course, this does not prevent their hearts from sublimating.
