Natural disasters in books: I stockpiled goods to escape famine in ancient times

Zhang Wu nodded, turned around and looked at Huang Ying, then smiled and said, "What I told the master yesterday, I asked Yingying at night, and she said she was willing."

Song Shiwei frowned and looked at Huang Ying after hearing this: "Really?"

"He has explained everything to me. I don't want you to send me away when you are doing things. It will be inconvenient for everyone. Besides, Shi Wei saved our family's life, and I don't know how to repay him."

"Do you know the consequences of taking that medicine?"

Huang Ying smiled and nodded: "I know, I won't tell anyone about your affairs anyway, so it won't do any good if you take it."

After saying this, Huang Ying turned around and smiled at Zhang Wu. It was obvious that she really meant it and had no grudges at all.

Song Shiwei was silent for a moment, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and poured a pill into it.

Feng Ru smiled and took out a needle from the sewing basket and handed it to Song Shiwei.

Drops of blood dripped and instantly melted into the pill.

Huang Ying still had a smile on her face. She walked forward, took the pill and put it directly into her mouth.

The pill melts in your mouth, leaving a slight astringency on the tip of your tongue.

Feng Ru smiled brightly, and took Huang Ying's hand, with a very intimate look: "Now sister-in-law is the same as us."

Huang Ying smiled back.

Although he had taken the loyalty pill, Song Shiwei was not prepared to let her know the space now. After all, it was too unbelievable, and this matter needed to be done step by step. Therefore, Song Shiwei looked at Zhang Wu calmly, and after seeing him nod, he moved his gaze without leaving a trace.

Zhang Wu stood beside Huang Ying, patted her shoulder and said to Song Shiwei, "I just remembered that I haven't prepared clothes for those three boys yet. I have to go there soon. Does the master have any instructions?"

"They are under your charge. Just make arrangements for them. No need to ask me. Just one thing, don't cause any trouble for me."

Zhang Wu immediately assured: "Master, rest assured, I have already warned them and will punish them from time to time."

"Ah."

Huang Ying didn't know what was going on with Song Da and the other two. She only knew that Zhang Wu had been going out early and coming back late to do things for Song Shiwei during this period. When he heard the two of them talking, he still looked confused.

Feng Ru knew the general idea and answered in a low voice beside Huang Ying.

It is better to go out early rather than late. Zhang Wu went out without saying a word. He first went to the clothing store to buy two sets of clothes for each of the three boys, and then went to the grocery store to buy some tinderboxes, candles and other things to take with him.

When Zhang Wu arrived, Song Da and Song Er went out to listen to the news, leaving only the taciturn Song San at home. This was also an agreement made by the three of them, so that there would be someone at home whenever Zhang Wu went, so as not to come back empty-handed.

"I forgot to buy you clothes yesterday. Since they are not here, you can try them on to see if they fit you."

Song San took the clothes back to his room with gratitude and changed into them. Then he came out wearing the new clothes, his face full of excitement. He looked at Zhang Wu with sparkling eyes, "Sir, they fit me."

As soon as he put on the new clothes, Song San wanted to cry.

Ever since I can remember, I have never worn new clothes. I only wore clothes that others discarded and picked up on the street. If I was lucky, the clothes I picked up had only a few patches, but they were still the best clothes in everyone's eyes, let alone such brand new ones.

Zhang Wu took a look and felt that he had a good taste. Song San and Song Er were of similar body shape, but Song Da was a head taller than the other two. Zhang Wu did not pick out the best materials for the clothes he bought for them, they were all the same dark green color.

"It's good that it fits. Here are some candlesticks that will last for a while."

"Thank you, sir. Song Da, Song Er and the others will be back at noon. Would you like to wait for them?" At present, the lord has allowed them to live in such a big house, bought a lot of food, and now bought clothes for them. The only request is to let the three of them go outside to listen to the news.

For people who have been begging for food all year round, hearing the news is just the simplest thing. They don’t even need to ask deliberately. They find such simple conditions unbelievable. Therefore, they have been a little worried in the past two days, fearing that such good days will end one day.

Zhang Wu could see what Song San was worried about. He wanted to laugh but felt he couldn't be too friendly, so he said with a stern face, "No need. I'll come back the day after tomorrow."

Song San opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, so he could only watch the adults leave.

On the way back, Zhang Wu kept thinking about something. After arriving home, he went straight to the hall to find Song Shiwei.

"You want to teach them to read?" Song Shiwei asked with surprise.

"I have nothing to do right now. I saw that Song Da had the potential to be a good student, so I thought of giving it a try. They are young and it is the right time for them to learn to read. They will be able to remember any news they hear in the future."

This is a good idea, but Song Shiwei glanced at the little girl who was practicing boxing and was silent for a moment: "Take Feng Ru with you."

Zhang Wu was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Feng Ru.

Feng Ru had already stopped and pointed at herself in surprise: "Me? Sister Song, what am I going to do?"

Song Shiwei's eyes were filled with smiles: "You go and be a motivation."

After that, he looked at Zhang Wu again and said, "Learning to read is not something that can be done in a day or two. Don't delay what I have told you to do. Feng Ru will go with you to motivate them. By the way, you can also pay attention to what those three are good at. As long as it doesn't delay getting the news, I don't mind giving you some benefits."

If it is cultivated well, it will be useful in the future.

Zhang Wu immediately understood what Song Shiwei meant, and said with a serious expression: "I understand, Master, don't worry."

Feng Ru stood aside and blinked. When she realized what was happening, she smiled brightly and rubbed her hands excitedly, ready to set an example for the newcomers.

"Then I will tell them that I can't read either, and I will learn with them. When Brother Zhang Wu asks about it, I will make a big splash. Hehe, by then they will definitely admire me and study hard."

When the little girl spoke, she raised her chin with a proud look on her face.

Song Shiwei held his forehead and laughed: "That doesn't have to be the case."

"I think Ruer's method is a good one. I think those three are quite smart. It's a good opportunity to let Ruer motivate them. Maybe there will be unexpected results."

Feng Ru's eyes lit up immediately: "Isn't it, Song Shiwei, you see, Brother Zhang Wu thinks my idea is very good."

Song Shiwei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and waved his hands: "You can do whatever you want."

Afterwards, Feng Ruxing excitedly pulled Zhang Wu aside to discuss how to make a splash. Seeing the two of them discussing seriously, Song Shiwei smiled slightly.

"By the way, go to Zhou's house to find Zhou Huai and tell him I will treat him to dinner tomorrow at noon."

Zhang Wu was stunned at first, then he thought of the time when he saved Feng Ru, and nodded repeatedly: "Where is the master going to invite Mr. Zhou to dinner?"

"Just go to that restaurant often."

"Okay, I'll go right away," Zhang Wu left without caring about Feng Ru's reluctance to continue.

Huang Ying just happened to come in from outside. She saw Zhang Wu walking away and was about to call out, but he just left. So she walked into the hall and looked at Song Shiwei: "Where is he going in such a hurry? It's time for dinner soon."

"Arrange him to go out and do something."
