After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

After the victims have been appeased, the next step is to ask the wealthy households to donate money and materials.

After all, the seven southern states were affected by a large area and suffered a large number of victims. Even if the money and food allocated by the emperor from the Ministry of Household Affairs were intercepted by Xiao Mochen, it would still be far from enough.

So we still have to pool our efforts.

Let them contribute with money and strength. And the intercepted grain also needs a provenance.

After all, the Li family has only been rich for two years. Anyone who is interested in Yan Qingqing's wealth will know clearly after checking.

Ling Ziyuan and Yan Qingqing agreed to entertain the gentry and landlords of Chengyang County at the Yamen three days later.

Then Yan Qingqing took Mu Xi back to Canghe Village.

When entering the village, Yan Qingqing also disinfected her entire body according to the rules before returning home.

Because the New Year is approaching and the whole village is under martial law, the whole family is in order.

When the children of the Li family got the news of Yan Qingqing's return, they all rushed to Yan Qingqing's yard.

Li Xiangping was the first to ask: "Mom, did everything go well for you and Magistrate Ling when you left the city today?"

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "It's just that I sent a batch of food out of the city. What could happen?"

After hearing this, Li Xiangping breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's good if everything goes well. I heard that the victims outside the city are not very peaceful, and there is a plague now. We are also worried about my mother's safety."

Yan Qingqing felt warm when she saw that Li Xiangping and others were worried. At least these children had their own hearts in their hearts, and she had not been a mother for nothing in the past two years.

Yan Qingqing grunted and said: "You are all concerned. It is true that some people are uneasy, but I have already dealt with them."

Li Yueniang on the side heard this and quickly asked: "Mom, how did you deal with it? Did you arrest them and beat them?"

If you ask me, this kind of people should be put in jail and let them suffer some physical pain. "

Yan Qingqing shook her head and said: "It's a lot of trouble, and there's not enough food for them in the prison."

Li Yueniang became even more curious after hearing this, and asked: "Mom, how did you deal with it?"

Yan Qingqing was a little impatient by her questioning, and replied half-truthfully: "Kill."

Li Yueniang curled her lips when she heard this. Is her mother perfunctory? She is not a three-year-old child.

In her impression, Yan Qingqing had never even killed a chicken except for beating a leprosy man, so how could he kill someone?

Seeing that Li Yueniang didn't believe it, Yan Qingqing didn't explain to her anymore.

After all, this matter cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

Li Yueniang felt that Yan Qingqing was unwilling to tell the truth to her, so she turned to Mu Xi who was standing aside.

But the answer he got was the same as Yan Qingqing.

An angry Li Yueniang scolded Mu Xi for being a bitch.

Mu Xi stood aside and felt a little unfair. He was telling the truth. There was nothing he could do if Li Yueniang didn't believe him.

But others looked at Yan Qingqing and Mu Xi thoughtfully.

But none of them mentioned it again.

After confirming that Yan Qingqing was intact, several children stayed with Yan Qingqing for a while before leaving. Only Xiao Mochen lingered and refused to leave.

Yan Qingqing knew that he had something to say to her.

So he waved his hand for Ruyi to retreat, looked at Xiao Mochen and asked, "Does Mo Chen have anything to say to aunt?"

Xiao Mochen nodded and said, "Is what aunt said just now true?"

Yan Qingqing couldn't react for a moment, what was it true?

Seeing this, Xiao Mochen explained: "Is it true that my aunt just said that those who made trouble should be killed?"

It turned out that this was the case. Yan Qingqing nodded without hesitation and replied: "Those people are not victims of the disaster at all."

Then she told Xiao Mochen what the group of people had done and her speculation.

The more Xiao Mochen listened, the colder his face became. Are they so impatient? These are tens of millions of people in the Yan Dynasty.

In their eyes, they were just pawns to dismount the emperor and compete for the throne.

If such a person is allowed to become the emperor, then their Great Yan Dynasty will truly come to an end, and the country will not be far away from being destroyed.

Xiao Mochen was silent for a while and then suddenly said: "Auntie, I plan to take a long trip."

Yan Qingqing was stunned when he heard this. At this time, Xiao Mochen didn't say where he could go if he didn't just stay in Canghe Village.

So Yan Qingqing asked: "Where are you going at this time? The Chinese New Year will be here in a few days."

Xiao Mochen sighed and said, "Auntie, Mo Chen also wants to spend the New Year with you in peace.

But where is Mo Chen's identity? I have my responsibilities and mission.

Even if I retreat for a while, I cannot retreat forever.

Some things have to be done sooner or later.

This time, the batch of grain that my aunt asked my eldest brother to buy and transport to the border must be escorted.

I think it's most appropriate for me to go. And this is a rare opportunity. "

In fact, Xiao Mochen was right. This was a good opportunity to win people's hearts.

If he can escort this batch of food to the north this time to relieve the soldiers' urgent need, the people in the army will definitely be grateful to him.

If he competes with Xiao Moyan for the throne in the future. How could these people not support him.

But Yan Qingqing was worried. Xiao Mochen was only twelve years old after all, and Xuancheng Mansion was far away from the north. In addition, Xiao Mochen's arm was injured.

But Yan Qingqing also knew that she couldn't stop him. After being silent for a while, she said, "Can't we wait for a few days before the New Year?"

Xiao Mochen smiled bitterly and said: "I received news some time ago that there is not much food and grass in the north. We can last for another ten days at most.

Even if I set out to the north now, it will still take half a month.

So I have to leave tomorrow at the latest. "

Yan Qingqing saw that there was no room for relaxation, so Xiao Mochen had to go to the north.

So he no longer tried to dissuade you, but said: "In that case, my aunt won't stop you anymore. I have already ordered them to load all the grain they purchased into the truck.

I originally planned to find someone to transport it to the border after the new year, but this saves trouble.

In addition, I also asked our food processing workshop to produce some vermicelli and soy products. You can bring them to the soldiers at the border, hoping that they can also have a prosperous New Year.

The embroidery shop also rushed to make a batch of close-fitting cotton tops. The border is bitterly cold, and these things are the best to keep out the cold. "

After hearing this, Xiao Mochen bowed deeply to Yan Qingqing and said, "My aunt's righteousness, Mo Chen will definitely keep it in mind for the rest of his life. I would like to thank you on behalf of the soldiers and people of the Great Yan Dynasty."

That night, Yan Qingqing took Li Xiangping, Li Xiangan and Li Yueniang to count all the items, and then handed the list to Xiao Mochen.

Yan Qingqing asked Mu Xi to transfer ten guards from the mountain and asked them to protect Xiao Mochen's safety along the way.

In fact, there are many secret guards around Xiao Mochen. In the past two years, he has trained a private army himself, so security is still very guaranteed.

But he was still very happy that Yan Qingqing could consider him so thoughtfully.

After bidding farewell to Yan Qingqing, Xiao Mochen led his team out of the city overnight and headed straight to the north.
