"This year has passed really fast, and I hope the next year will be even better."

Chapter 192: Pray for New Year's Eve and Distribute Rice on New Year's Eve

On the second day, the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month is also called New Year's Eve.

Removing the old and bringing forth the new, worshiping gods and offering sacrifices to ancestors, exorcising evil spirits and avoiding disasters, praying for new blessings

The entire city of Gusu was filled with festive celebrations.

Every household posts Spring Festival couplets, hangs red lights, people smile brightly, and every scene is happy and harmonious.

"The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth into Tusu."

"Thousands of households and pupils always exchange new peaches for old talismans."

Murong Fu stood at the door of the old house, reciting "Yuan Ri", and asked, "Are things ready?"

"Ready, my lord, [-] tans of rice, [-] tans of white flour, and [-] catties of candy." Bao BuTong replied standing aside.

Wang Yuyan and the girls at the side said, "This year, something big happened in Gusu City. I'm afraid [-] catties of food is not enough. It would be great if we could adjust some more."

"Ma'am, it's difficult. Our food is bought from other provinces, which is very expensive." Bao Differ said awkwardly.

"It'll be fine if this year passes. I've asked Big Brother Bao and Yaoshi Hu to hire many refugees to open up wasteland. There will be enough food for us in the coming year." Murong Fu laughed.

Bao BuTong echoed, "Young master said, if next year is a good year, there will be enough food for us."

"Well, I hope so." Murong Fu nodded, "It's time to release food, let people organize their hands, and each person can't get more than one share."

"Okay!" Bao BuTong waved his arms, and the news that the Murong Mansion had started to release food spread throughout Gusu City.

Countless people flocked away, some of them were not for food, but wanted to see Murong Fu and say a word of thanks and heartwarming.

"Thank you, Mr. Murong, for protecting our Gusu City."

"That's right, if it weren't for you, our Gusu City would have been destroyed by corpse poison."

"Wanfu, Mr. Murong, Mrs. Murong will stay young forever. You are all heroes of our Gusu City."

...

Hearing the cheers of the common people, the faces of Murong Fu's women were filled with proud smiles.

Especially Wang Yuyan, who smiled the happiest.

She knew that she had not married wrongly in her life, that she had not married wrongly, and that she loved the right person.

The refugees also received three catties of rice.Three catties of white flour, and some candies for the Chinese New Year.

Don't look at the fact that there are not many of these things, but it is enough for them to survive this winter.

Some scruffy kid gets a candy, enough to sweeten them into next year.

A refugee uncle who had just received food said to his children and grandchildren:

"You guys, you must remember Mr. Murong. If it wasn't for him, our family would freeze to death in this city this year. When you grow up, you will join the army with me and repay his life-saving grace."

The children seemed to understand, but they all nodded blankly.

Some even knelt on the ground to kowtow to Murong Fu from a long distance away.

At this moment, it seemed that something extraordinary was imprinted in their hearts.

"Haha, if you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. Brother Murong, your ability is getting stronger and stronger. In the future, don't just focus on the three acres in front of you."

Lai Wenjun didn't know when, while drinking with a flagon, he ran to Murong Fu's side and said with a smile.

"Brother Lai, you are a famous person in the world anyway, why do you always act like this."

"If you let your descendants know, I'm afraid it will affect your glorious image in their hearts." Murong Fu joked.

"Haha, it's just a skin, it's okay, it's okay." Lai Wenjun laughed a few times.

Murong Fu shook his head and did not argue with him.

After all, no one can say anything against Lai Wenjun who has been drinking.

Not long after, Song Yongsi, Li Qingluo, Ding Chunqiu and others also arrived at the mansion one after another.

"Haha, Brother Murong, you are really the savior of our Gusu City."

"Originally, things like opening warehouses and releasing food should be done by me, the parent official." Song Yongsi cupped his hands and said.

Murong Fu shook his head: "Brother Song, you don't have to be polite, you are an official in the same dynasty as me, so there is no need to distinguish between you and me."

"Well, Brother Murong, you are right." Song Yongsi nodded and said happily.

Murong Fu smiled and said, "Brother Song, why don't you come and distribute some rice?"

When Song Yongsi heard it, he was overjoyed: "This is so embarrassing, isn't it a feat of greed!"

"It's okay, you and I will have more chances to cooperate in the future, what is this little thing?" Murong Fu said.

"Okay!" Song Yongsi was overjoyed, greeted his wife and children quickly, and distributed rice noodles with Wang Yuyan.

"Hehe, boy, he's just a prefect, why is he so flattering?" Ding Chunqiu stood aside and said disdainfully.

Murong Fu shook his head, the old guy has lived his whole life and doesn't know anything about politics.

No wonder, at the end of the novel, he will be imprisoned in Shaolin, saying:

"The rivers and lakes are not just about fighting and killing. There is nothing wrong with the rivers and lakes, and people are so sophisticated."

"You are old, you don't eat fireworks, you really need to learn more."

Ding Chunqiu said disdainfully: "When your strength crushes everything, you will know that the old man is right."

"Hehe, Zhang Sanfeng has crushed the current world, and I haven't seen him stand up and shout." Murong Fu rolled his eyes at Ding Chunqiu.

"Hmph, he's too lazy, if I were an old man, the martial arts would have been unified long ago." Ding Chunqiu said loudly.

Seeing the two of them arguing endlessly, Li Qingluo said, "Father, let's go in first."

"Let's go." Ding Chunqiu said with a smile.

After Murong Fu asked his servants to bring the two of them in, he went down to deliver the rice himself.

It was not until near noon that he entered the house with several wives and knelt down to worship the ancestors.
