During the lean years, I relied on space to pamper my husband and raise my children.

The news that Shen Qianning donated 8000 taels of silver spread throughout Qucheng within half an hour.

Shang Yu was the first to find Shen Qianning.

"Boss Shen, I must learn from your noble character."

When he came, he heard many people saying that Shen Qianning was stupid.

8000 taels of silver is not 800 taels of silver. If you say you want to donate it, just donate it.

A total loser!

Shen Qianning drank tea and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid many people in the city will call me stupid! I just can't bear to see so many children suffer."

She should do good deeds for herself and her children.

Moreover, she is really not short of money now.

Just now Qin Dongsheng gave her the account books for this period.

She took a look and found that she had made more than 2 taels of silver.

And Xiao Dongsheng gave her the banknote.

There are still more than 5000 taels of silver left in the store.

Moreover, the jade mine has not yet settled the settlement for her.

If she really wanted to settle accounts, she would have at least tens of thousands of taels of silver in her account.

Shang Yu doesn't care what those people outside say.

He truly admired Shen Qianning.

"It doesn't matter what those people outside say, they just hate you."

Shen Qianning smiled sweetly.

Seeing Shang Yu looking aggressive, he asked, "Are you also planning to donate some money?"

Shang Yu nodded.

Speaking of his own thoughts, he said: "You know I'm not short of money. I just came to Qucheng to open a restaurant because of my anger with my father. The restaurant has made a lot of money these days. I don't have the courage like you to take out 8000 taels of silver at once. Let me donate 2000 taels of silver!"

Shen Qianning hurriedly gave Shang Yu more tea and praised: "Not bad, not bad. If you have such awareness, you actually don't care how much money you donate."

2000 taels is a lot.

Shang Yu left Shen Qianning's place and went directly to the government office.

Soon, another notice was posted in the Yamen, and the owner of Baiweilou Shang donated 2000 taels.

After Shang Yu's name, there are also donations from Magistrate Sun, Yamen officials and masters.

Qucheng's Yamen is the famous Qingshui Yamen.

But Magistrate Sun took out 120 five taels of silver, a small amount of donations.

Officials' salaries range from a dozen taels of silver to a few taels of silver.

Before, there were people in the city who were scolding Shen Qianning and scolding Shen Qianning for being stupid, but they couldn't do it now.

Because everyone in the yamen donated money, it was obvious that they really wanted to help these refugees.

Magistrate Sun acted resolutely and found a forest belonging to the Yamen about half a mile away from the city gate, allowing the refugees to move there.

In the evening, gruel and steamed bread began to be distributed at the city gate.

Whole grains are added to the wowotou, and some vegetables are also added to it.

This was Shen Qianning's advice to Magistrate Sun.

With the arrangements made by the Yamen, the refugees soon saw hope.

The court also provided grain and straw for building shacks.

Early the next morning.

Children under ten years old can also receive a hard-boiled egg.

Shang Yu asked someone from the restaurant to boil the eggs and send them to him.

He heard Shen Qianning say he had young children yesterday.

I went out of the city to take a look and found that many children were sallow and thin, which made people feel distressed just looking at them.

There was official supervision, but no one was so shameless as to bring the child to collect it twice.

Probably everyone wants to be on the bulletin board.

The wealthy families in the city all want to have a good reputation.

One after another, people came to Magistrate Sun to donate money.

Magistrate Sun knew what these people were asking for.

To say that they were kind, he didn't believe it.

These were the same people who asked him not to allow those refugees to enter the city.

I'm afraid that without Shen Qianning and Shang Yu taking the lead, these people would not be willing to donate money. In the final analysis, they just want to gain a good reputation.

Shen Qianning took the opportunity to go out of the city and brought back a cart of goods.

Just when the little umbrella appears.

She didn't know how to explain it to Xiao Dongsheng.

I had to write about the purpose of the small umbrella.

When Xiao Dongsheng and the others saw clearly, their faces all turned red.

Shen Qianning just removed the outer packaging.

So they are placed one by one on the shelf.

She coughed dryly and said, "Don't be embarrassed, this is better than soaking sheep intestines with fish!"

This is really too hard to talk about for the three people who are not yet married.

Shen Qianning still insisted on letting Xiao Dongsheng and the others sell it.

One tael of silver and three!

Things are rare.

She didn't have much of this stuff to begin with.

I just donated 8000 taels of silver, and I have to find a way to earn it back.

There are also some weird things.

They are all small things that Shen Qianning cleaned up the space.

Shen Qianning waited for two days.

It was almost after Magistrate Sun had finished all his work that he came to the door again.

There were only Magistrate Sun and Shen Qianning in the room.

Shen Qianning looked confused: "I came here to ask about the border issues. I haven't received a letter from Feiye for more than a month. Do you know what the current situation is at the border?"

She was worried about Xiao Feiye.

Magistrate Sun shook his head.

"I don't know anything about border affairs in the recent period. I only know that the fight with Jiang Guo is in full swing."

Shen Qianning was even more worried.

"Fei Ye has never delayed writing to me for so long. I wonder if something happened to him?"

No wonder Shen Qianning has random thoughts.

In fact, I just sent the medicine to the border. Calculating the time, the person who delivered the medicine had already arrived. It stands to reason that Xiao Feiye would reply immediately after getting the medicine.

Magistrate Sun comforted Shen Qianning: "Don't worry, maybe everything will be fine? Sometimes you scare yourself."

Shen Qianning felt uneasy.

Knowing that the prefect knew many people, he asked, "Prefect Sun, can you help me find out the news about the border!"

Magistrate Sun agreed.

He sighed and said: "It is inevitable that there are more and more people outside the city. I asked the master to count the number of people. There are more than 800 people. I'm afraid that after the news spreads, more people will come later, one after another. We received donations from businessmen in the city, which amounted to approximately more than 1 taels."

More than 2 taels of silver is quite a lot.

But Shen Qianning knew that it would still be difficult to maintain the expenses of tens of thousands of people in the future.

What's more, these refugees must spend the winter here.

The most important thing is that if the bandits are not dealt with, these refugees will not go back.

Therefore, the next thing that the Yamen needs to face is the most difficult thing.

Shen Qianning knew what Magistrate Sun meant.

He comforted: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. If the emperor knew the situation here, maybe he would allocate funds? Besides, if it doesn't work, I will donate more."

How could Magistrate Sun have the nerve to ask for Shen Qianning's money?

"Don't donate. Your donation of 8000 taels is already a lot. I will think of a way next."

The matter of rogue bandits has been reported to the court.

There was also the matter of the first three cities not accepting refugees, and Magistrate Sun also wrote an angry memorial.

a few days later.

Imperial City!

In the palace, the emperor was correcting the memorial.

The serving father-in-law said: "Here is a memorial sent by Sun Zhifu of Qucheng."

After Shen Qianning's incident, the emperor specifically told the people below that any memorial sent by Qu Cheng must be delivered to him as soon as possible.

He was mainly worried about missing Shen Qianning's affairs.
