The Shen family members were startled by the sudden voice of the Minister of Rites, and they immediately turned to look at him cautiously.

The Minister of Rites lowered his eyes and smiled, and said, "Don't be so nervous. I just hope that everyone can come back safely this time."

His smile was inevitably a bit superficial, and this look made Yao Shu's heart tremble.

Faced with such a provocation from him, Shen Nanshan naturally could not sit still and wait for death.

Shen Nanshan spoke slowly and said: "Thank you very much for your blessings from the Minister of Rites. If we can come back safely this time, it will be a blessing to the Minister of Rites."

Hearing this, the expression on the face of the Minister of Rites suddenly stiffened. He snorted coldly and turned away directly, not wanting to have any more words with them.

Seeing him leaving angrily, Yao Shu sighed helplessly.

"It seems that the road ahead is indeed difficult."

"It doesn't matter. Isn't what our Shen family is best at is to take advantage of the situation? We have gone through many hardships along the way. What kind of major events have we not seen during the escape? Now we are just going to provide disaster relief, right? Will it be more difficult than before?" Shen Nanshan approached Yao Shu and spoke softly to comfort her.

Yao Shu had to admit that what he said was right.

Looking back on what happened during the escape, she has to admire her perseverance.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu smiled slightly and said, "That's right."

After the Shen family returned home, they began to pack their luggage. The date given by the emperor was only three days before departure.

Shen Qiu received a letter from General Ling, saying that the disaster outside was far more serious than they imagined. Moreover, the road to the disaster area is not easy. Whether you take the waterway or the land route, you will inevitably have to go through a lot of trouble.

Hearing this, everyone in the Shen family felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and they all looked at Yao Shu seriously.

"In this case, we need to bring more supplies on the road. Since it is a disaster area, it is naturally difficult for currency to circulate."

In disaster areas, even if you have a lot of money, you can't buy anything.

After the Shen family finished cleaning up, they were ready to go to the restaurant to practice for themselves.

As soon as a group of people arrived in front of the restaurant, they saw Wang Yuanyang leading a group of people staring at Yao Shu.

Yao Shuda stepped forward: "President Wang, why are you here suddenly?"

"I heard that you are going to provide disaster relief. With such an important matter, we naturally have to come forward to help. But we are not officials after all, so we can only follow you silently. By then, if you need help, you must turn back. Look at us." Wang Yuanyang said as he patted the box next to him.

Yao Shu didn't react for a while and looked at them subconsciously.

The bosses standing in front of me are all people who can speak in the chamber of commerce. The stores they opened were also very influential in the capital, and everyone was considered a well-known big shot.

At this time, they stood in front of the Shen family, with sincere attitudes and shining eyes.

Yao Shu felt warm in her heart and said subconsciously: "This journey has been difficult, so why do you have to do this?"

"First of all, you are a member of our Chamber of Commerce, and secondly, such a big thing has happened. As ordinary people, we have received the favor of the Emperor at the feet of the Emperor, so we naturally have to do our part. Therefore, we are not going to the disaster area this time. Just for you, the Shen family is also for the common people." After Wang Yuanyang said that, he immediately turned to look at the people behind him, "Brothers, tell me, am I right?"

"That's right!"

"well said!"

Yao Shu didn't know what words to use to express her gratitude. Their journey was already difficult. If someone from the Chamber of Commerce could help, it would save a lot of trouble.

And when the Minister of Rites saw so many people accompanying him, he was naturally a little wary.

Unexpectedly, they would help so sincerely, which made Yao Shu couldn't help but feel emotional.

"In that case, I would like to thank all the bosses for their help. All the food and wine in the restaurant are free to drink today. I hope everyone can enjoy their meal. Please come inside!"

In the next two days, anyone who spends money in the restaurant will get a 50% discount.

Everyone in the capital knew that the Shen family was going to the disaster area to provide relief for the emperor, and in order to show support for them, they poured into the restaurant one after another.

Even though Yao Shu has said that she will give them a half discount, they will still pay the full price when they pay, and even get some more money.

In the past few days, after settling the accounts, Shen Jianan said that the income from the restaurant was much greater.

The night before they set out, they said they would give all the money they earned in the past three days to the victims.

As soon as this notice came out, the people in the capital were excited again.

Before they left, Yao Shu was still a little worried about Shen Jian'an. She turned to look at him with a concerned expression on her face: "We don't know when we will come back after leaving. It's up to you to take care of the restaurant and the Shen family these days." .”

The reason why Shen Jian'an did not go in for disaster relief was firstly because he had been feeling cold recently and had difficulty moving; secondly, it was also because there was a Shen family member needed to stay in the capital, so that if anything happened, the Shen family would know immediately.

"Don't worry, mother, I remember everything you told me these past few days."

Yao Shu thought for a while and then continued: "There is one more thing that needs attention. If someone comes to your door intentionally to cause trouble, don't bear it alone. Instead, go find Marquis Ningyuan first."

Then, she gave some careful instructions to her daughters-in-law, and finally looked at her grandchildren reluctantly.

After Shen Nanshan's repeated reminders, she decided to leave.

On the way to the disaster area, Yao Shu opened the door curtain from time to time and glanced at the capital behind her. She couldn't help but feel in a trance.

She understood that this sentence was full of dangers, and she was not even sure whether she could return safely.

Shen Nanshan saw the worry in her heart and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, we are all by your side."

The rest of the Shen family also nodded.

They were extremely worried in their hearts, but they still pretended to be unafraid on the surface. This made Yao Shu feel very distressed. She thought about it and said, "If we can return to Beijing safely this time, our status will naturally be different in the future. Then no one will dare to bully us casually, and no one will dare to cause trouble behind our backs. "

Her original intention was to use these words to boost morale and help everyone get out of their decadence and fear, but it had no effect after she said it.

Everyone sighed silently, and no one took the initiative to speak, letting the wind blow by their ears and whistle softly.

The emperor's seals for Shen Fugui and Shen Qiu hadn't arrived yet, so Yao Shu was inevitably a little anxious and kept looking back, hoping to see them.
