A genius girl with her own space

Chapter 17: Rebuilding Homes for Disaster Victims

Zhou Jingze helped the master up. "Master, let me help you go to the restaurant to rest."

Qiqi also quickly stood up and came over to support the master. After all, the master was old and had been saving people all day, so he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. "It's been a day, and you two haven't eaten all day. Let's go back to the restaurant to eat something and then look around elsewhere," Yun Jizi said.

In the evening, Zhou Jingze's secret guards also came to report on the rescue. The terrain in the northeast of Zoucheng is low-lying, and they rescued more than a thousand people. They were all arranged by the government to stay in inns and hotels. "Very good, you should also find a hotel to rest, eat some food, and protect yourself so that you can save more people." Zhou Jingze said. "Yes, as you command."

The three of them ate some food and let the master take a rest.

The two brothers and sisters dragged their exhausted bodies to the government office and saw the victims spontaneously cooking, some boiling Chinese medicine and distributing herbal soups, some carrying the wounded, and all taking care of each other.

Qiqi met the prefect, who was writing a memorial to report the situation in Zoucheng.

Qiqi took out 5,000 taels of silver notes and the prince took out 20,000 taels of silver notes, and handed them to the prefect to donate to the victims and rebuild their homes.

The prefect knelt down and kowtowed to the prince and Qiqi. He thanked the prince and Qiqi for donating money to the people. He kowtowed on behalf of the people of Zoucheng.

The prefect asked the chief steward to inform the victims of the donations made by the prince and Qiqi to rebuild their homes and to calm their anxiety. Many of the victims knelt and kowtowed to thank the prince and Qiqi.

When the wealthy merchants and locals in Zoucheng heard about this, they also spontaneously organized donations, contributing 3,000 taels of silver in a single day. Several representatives personally presented the donations to the government office. The prefect was deeply moved and posted their names and the amount of their donations on a notice to remind the people.

Perhaps God was moved, the sky cleared up and the sun came out.

The victims whose houses did not collapse voluntarily took food and supplies home to repair their homes.

The three brothers Yunlei, Yunfeng and Xie Lei arrived in Zoucheng with more than 20 trucks of supplies and food, and distributed supplies and food door to door in the hardest-hit areas.

When Qiqi learned that her brothers had also come to help with the disaster relief, she rushed over immediately.

"Brother, I miss you guys." "Qiqi, I haven't seen you for a year. I miss you too. You've lost weight." Yun Lei touched Qiqi's little face with heartache. "Sister, this is the cake that mom made for you. Eat it quickly." "Qiqi, this is the apple that brother gave you." "Qiqi, let brother Xie Lei hug you. I miss you too."

Zhou Jingze, who was standing beside them, also wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, moved by their brotherly love.

The governors of nearby cities that were not affected also sent cartloads of supplies and dispatched many soldiers to build houses and clean up the homes of the victims.

The emperor also sent relief supplies to Zoucheng, and 50,000 city defense troops were dispatched to help the people rebuild their homes.

All the people in the city knelt on the ground and chanted: "Long live the emperor!"

Yun Lei shouted, "United as one, let's rebuild our home." The people joined in the chant, "United as one, let's rebuild our home. United as one, let's rebuild our home."

The prince, the prefect, and the people sent by the emperor to build the Agricultural Bureau discussed building houses in high places to prevent floods.

When people are united, they can move mountains. Rows of houses were built, and the people happily moved into their new homes.

The three Yunlei brothers said goodbye to Qiqi and returned to their hometown.

Qiqi is also going to embark on a journey of wandering with her master and brothers.

The 50,000 city defense troops sent by the Emperor also had to return to the capital to deploy their forces. The common people lined the streets to see them off. Some gave the soldiers steamed buns, hard-boiled eggs, apples, pancakes, and other treats to eat on the way.

The court physician gifted Qiqi a medical book passed down from generation to generation. The prefect, knowing Qiqi had everything she needed, had his wife sew a cloak for her as a keepsake. Local residents also gave Qiqi and her brothers gifts, which they declined.

The three brothers were reluctant to leave Qiqi, so they rode their horses to see her off for miles, urging her to write home and let them know she was safe. The jade shop had branches in almost every city in China. She wrote a letter and gave it to the owner, who would send someone to the Jiang residence. This was the jade shop's badge. Qiqi was told to keep it safe, so whenever she needed money, she could show the badge to any shop and withdraw it.

"Thank you, brother. Come home soon so that mother won't worry about you. It's been more than a month since you came to provide disaster relief. Come back soon." Qiqi arrived.

"You guys should go back soon. I will take care of Qiqi, don't worry." Zhou Jingze said.

The Yunlei brothers bowed to Taoist Master Yunji and the prince and said goodbye, then rode away.

Qiqi was in tears until she could no longer see her brother, then she got on the carriage and headed south.

"Qiqi, don't be sad. We will be in Nancheng soon. There are abundant aquatic products there. Master will take you to the beach to eat seafood." "Okay, okay, Master. I love lobsters and big crabs the most." "Okay, okay, little greedy cat,"

"Qiqi, senior brother will roast it for you."

The three of them arrived at a small seaside town in the evening and found a hotel to stay and eat. They ordered a few dishes. Qiqi took out a can of fruit wine from her space and said, "Hahaha, I just like drinking the wine brewed by Qiqi."

"Master, I'll gather some Chinese herbs and brew some medicinal wine for you to increase your immunity."

Yunjizi was old and often traveled, reluctant to hire a carriage, so he walked most of the time. This caused knee strain, which became painful on cloudy days. Qiqi saw this and felt deeply distressed, so she decided to brew some Chinese medicinal wine for her master.

The space is lacking safflower and rhizome of ox-bone. The other Chinese herbs are all there, having been planted a while ago. Once they're harvested, we'll have all the ingredients for the prescription. We can brew Chinese medicinal wine for the master.

After Qiqi and Zhou Jingze finished their meal, they began to meditate and practice. When they stayed in the woods, they practiced swordsmanship against each other.

Practicing Qinggong. Never slacking off. Qiqi's swordsmanship was so powerful that even several strong men couldn't get close to her, and even martial arts masters with Qinggong couldn't catch up. Her medical skills reached a new peak under her master's guidance.

They had been traveling with their master for two years. Qiqi was now six years old, and Zhou Jingze had grown into a handsome young man at twelve. They had seen and heard many things along the way, which made them more aware of the difficulties and dangers of the world.

Early in the morning, Qiqi said goodbye to her master and followed her senior brother to the beach to play.

There were a lot of people at the beach, some using rakes to dig for clams and catch crabs. I saw two women there, all digging for large clams. They said it was clam season today. After digging for 25 minutes and collecting half a bucket of clams, I saw them dump them into the sea, rinse them, and then carry them home. I muttered to myself, "Today, my little grandson has finally had his clam free."

There was an uncle over there catching clams. He used a rake to dig a piece of sand, saw a small hole, sprinkled salt on it, and the clams came out of the hole like bamboo shoots after the spring rain. I quickly pulled the clams out and had a great harvest.

Qiqi also wanted to dig clams herself, so Zhou Jingze gave the uncle a tael of silver and bought his rake, salt, and bucket. The uncle was overjoyed. A tael of silver could buy a lot of buckets, and today he made a profit. He happily gave all the clams in the bucket to them.

Qiqi followed the uncle's method and lured the clams out. The two of them had a lot of fun picking them out. They played and played while digging clams.

"Let's go over there," Qiqi pointed to a deserted beach.

"Little girl, you can't go there. The clams and clam meat they dig there are all black and don't taste good. We won't go there." said an aunt.

"Why" "I don't know".

"Brother, call the master tomorrow and we will go see it together."

"Well, okay, we have dug a lot, let's go back."

Zhou Jingze carried the bucket, Qiqi the rake. Back at the inn, Qiqi took out the grill, put on the charcoal, and the seasonings, and began to grill the clams and mussels. Zhou Jingze helped, and as the mussels and mussels opened, they added the seasonings, and the aroma immediately spread.

Yun Jizi smelled the fragrance and came over.

"Qiqi, why does it smell so good!" "Chef, come quickly, we'll be able to eat it soon." Zhou Jingze borrowed a table and stools from the store owner, put them in the yard, and placed the baked food on them.
