A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

When Aunt Chen heard Xia Tian ask them to make clothes for the people in the yard, she happily agreed, "Okay, Madam."

Xia Tian looked at the clothes she had made and said, "If there are children with thin clothes or no spare clothes, you can give them these first. Also, make two more sets of clothes for the two children who go to school, and use better materials."

"I understand, ma'am." Aunt Chen replied with a smile, "Don't worry, ma'am. You've already instructed Xiaozhou and Gu Kang that their clothes should be made of fine cotton.

Fu Gui and his family were also given a set of cotton-padded clothes after they arrived. We each made two sets before winter this year, and the lining of the children's cotton-padded clothes is made of cotton cloth.

The others also agreed with a smile. The lady has always been generous with food and clothing. Since they came here, they have never been cold or hungry, and they have never been ordered around or scolded by their master.

Compared to their previous lives, they are now living a fairy-like life!

Xia Tian also smiled and nodded. Aunt Chen and the others were all real people, and it was worth it for her to treat them so well!

"As for the people at the restaurant, besides our family members preparing clothes as usual, everyone else, like the chef, accountant Liu, etc., should also prepare a set of clothes each, and prepare the fabric for another set. Uncle Gu will distribute them when the time comes."

The restaurant chef, accountant Liu, and several waiters were all hired from outside. They were given a set of clothes and a set of cloth so that they could bring the clothes to their families.

After finishing the arrangements here in the summer, I went to Yuejin Pavilion again.

It's the end of the year and the restaurant business is even better.

Although the prices of dishes in the restaurant have increased slightly due to rising prices, there are still many people coming to eat.

For rich people, this price increase has no impact at all.

It may also be because it is winter and the weather is cold, the restaurant's health-preserving porridge and soup are more popular.

Some students whose families are wealthy come here to eat almost every day.

These students all passed the imperial examination last year and are waiting to take part in the joint examination in February or March of the following year.

Some people who live far away don’t go home and just stay here.

When summer arrived, Uncle Gu was busy greeting customers, and Accountant Liu was behind the counter, clacking away on his abacus as he settled customers' bills.

It was lunchtime at this time, and the bustling people in the restaurant and the refugees outside the city seemed like people from two different worlds.

Even after the imperial court advocated donating goods and grain, only clothes were donated in the summer, and the grain was still retained.

Every day she asked Aunt Chen and others to steam some steamed buns at home and add them to the porridge when distributing it. She would also give an extra steamed bun to families with elderly people and children, as a way of showing her care.

Although we can't take care of everyone, we can help as much as we can.

She was afraid that the donated food might not be used for the refugees, so she prepared and distributed it herself, which was a way to remember her original intention of hoarding food.

Uncle Gu and Accountant Liu greeted her with a smile when they saw her come in, but she told them to get busy first.

She went to the private room on the second floor by herself.

When Aunt Gu heard her coming, she quickly made a pot of tea and brought it over.

"Madam, have you had lunch? Do you want to eat here?" Aunt Gu put the teapot on the table and asked with a smile.

"Not yet. Please prepare a few simple dishes for us!"

"Okay, ma'am." Aunt Gu happily went down to make arrangements.

After a while, he and Xiao You brought over two plates of snacks for them to fill their stomachs.

There are quite a lot of customers right now, so we'll have to wait a while for the food to be served!

"Xiao You, is this the new snack you learned to make?"

Xia Tian asked as he looked at the exquisite snacks on the plate.

This snack was not available the last time she came.

It wasn't the recipe she provided.

"Well, this is what I made recently. The customers in the restaurant like it very much. Madam, please try it." Xiao You smiled embarrassedly.

Xia Tian nodded, tasted it, and found it tasted very good. He smiled and praised her.

Ever since Xiao You came to the restaurant, she basically stays in the kitchen and rarely comes out. She is indeed very talented in cooking.

Xia Tian was also very happy, as she felt she had struck gold.

Seeing that she liked it, Xiao You went out happily.

After she finished her meal here, she chatted with Uncle Gu for a while, talked about the restaurant's plans for the end of the year, and then went back.

The next day, after breakfast, she went to the porridge distribution center outside the city.

I haven't been here for a few days, and there are many more refugees outside the city.

The temporary shelters built by the court were also overcrowded.

Several more porridge distribution points were added. Although only two meals were provided a day, there were many people and the workload was heavy. The fire never went out from morning to night, and the porridge was cooked continuously.

It's still at least three months before the weather warms up, and she's worried about the court!

She was standing in front of the porridge stall and worrying when she heard a shrill cry not far away from her.

Mu Feng and Muchen protected her. When she walked over, she saw a woman holding a little girl, sitting on the ground and crying.

The child was so scared that he cried loudly!

Xia Tian frowned, "What's going on?"

When the woman saw that it was Xia Tian, she quickly wiped away her tears and said with a sob, "Sir, they stole my steamed bread and they want to steal my child too."

The woman looked terrified and hugged the little girl tightly.

Xia Tian looked at those men with fat faces. They didn't look like they were starving at all.

"Who are you? Why are you stealing other people's food?"

"Sir, we don't want to steal anything. We are just joking." Several people said with a grin.

"No, they've been stealing our food and mistreating other girls."

A woman watching nearby accused angrily.

"Yes. They rob us every day and threaten us to give our daughters to them, otherwise they will kill us."

Someone else came forward to testify.

Xia Tian's face was gloomy. It was obvious that these people were not good people. She did not doubt the accusations of others at all.

"Mu Feng, tie them up and hand them over to the authorities. If what they say is true, they must be severely punished."

"Yes, ma'am!" Mu Feng responded. He was already furious after hearing what he heard.

Just walk forward and knock them all down with one kick!

These people wanted to run away, but were stopped by other refugees. All eight of them were tied up by Mu Feng.

Just string them together with a rope and lead them to find the yamen runner.

Muchen stayed by Xia Tian's side.

The woman sitting on the ground saw her take away the bad guys, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "Thank you, my dear, thank you, my dear."

When other refugees saw this, they also knelt down and kowtowed to her to thank her.

Although they received assistance from the court these days, these people still bullied them when the government was not paying attention to them, especially those with girls at home, who were harassed and bullied by them.

Xia Tian felt sad when he saw this, so he quickly asked them to get up and asked Cui Ling to get some steamed buns. He gave one to each of the children and girls and watched them finish eating before returning to the porridge shed.

When Mu Feng came back, he asked him to tell the government officials about what was happening here, so that they could be informed and send more people to patrol and watch over the place.

Especially those bad guys, we must never let them come out and harm people again!

Mu Feng said that he had explained everything and asked her not to worry.

Only then did she feel relieved!
