I've been reborn, who would still raise a son from another family? Go away
Chapter 553: Bombardment
"But the fighting has already started outside, and they are using gunpowder now. The battle must be fierce, otherwise the gunpowder would not be brought out so quickly." Mother Yan said worriedly.
Liu Yueru looked outside and listened to the direction where the explosion came from, which was the city wall where Xie Jingrui was.
"Mother Yan, it is precisely because of the crisis that we should do a good job behind the scenes and provide them with relatively good food and clothing, so that the soldiers who are at the forefront have no worries."
"Yes."
"Mother Yan, please go and see how the food transportation is going. Make sure there is enough food delivered to each city gate." Liu Yueru instructed in a gentle voice.
Mother Yan received the order and came out quickly.
The old woman suddenly came over and said, "Madam, Miss Zhu is looking for you outside."
"Why is she here at this time?" Liu Yueru said as she lifted her skirt and walked quickly towards the main hall.
When Zhu Xiaohong saw Liu Yueru coming, she hurried forward and pointed at the dozen pigs outside and said, "Yue'er, these are a little gift from our Zhu family. Kill them to supplement the soldiers."
Zhu Xiaohong's father and mother were outside helping to pull the pigs when they saw Liu Yueru looking in their direction.
He nodded slightly at Liu Yueru.
Liu Yueru responded with a smile, stretched out her hand and quickly pulled Zhu Xiaohong aside, and asked in a low voice, "How did you trick them into handing over all the pigs they raised to the national treasury?"
Zhu Xiaohong said aggrievedly: "My father felt sorry for the soldiers who went to the war. He didn't know how to deliver the things in his hand to the soldiers, so he asked me to deliver the things together."
Liu Yueru was a little embarrassed.
Seeing that Liu Yueru was reluctant to accept it, Father Zhu stepped forward anxiously and said to Liu Yueru, "This is all we can do to help."
"You have raised these pigs for a long time, hoping to exchange them for some money during the New Year. Now you have handed them all over..." Liu Yueru hadn't finished her words.
Suddenly he thought of something and said to the butler beside him, "Record the number of those pigs and report them to the emperor. Then we will say that we helped to purchase them."
"We'll accept the things first." Liu Yueru said while giving the servant a look.
Soon they came up with the silver.
Liu Yueru counted the silver according to the market price and handed it to Zhu's father.
"No, no, we gave these voluntarily. We don't want your money." Zhu's father and Zhu Xiaohong refused together.
Liu Yueru stuffed the silver into Zhu Xiaohong's arms and said seriously, "Take it. It's always good to have silver. These pigs are most of your property, right? After those ghosts are driven away, you still have to make a living. Without silver, how can you buy piglets and feed those pigs?"
Zhu Xiaohong frowned slightly and wanted to say something, but Liu Yueru gently patted the back of her hand.
Then he said, "Well, the capital city is not peaceful right now, so you should go back early and try not to go out unless necessary."
Zhu Xiaohong glanced at the money bag in her hand and accepted the things. "Then we will go back first."
Liu Yueru sent them to the door.
She took a look at the pigs and ordered people to put them away first.
Now the war has just begun, and I don’t know what will happen next.
Food needs to be supplied in a steady stream.
When Mother Yan came back from her work, she saw Liu Yueru still sitting by the window, staring at the war outside in a daze.
She walked carefully to Liu Yueru's side and whispered, "My lady, it's late, it's time to go to bed."
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
There were bright lights of explosions coming from several places outside.
The sound of explosions plunged the entire city of Kyoto into silence.
"Prince, young master, please slow down." The anxious voice of the old woman came from outside the courtyard.
Accompanied by the sound of tapping footsteps.
"Knock knock knock!" Someone knocked on the gate.
Liu Yueru's thoughts were pulled back.
"Who is it?" Yan's mother asked in a long voice.
"Mother Yan, it's us." Yan Ge'er's voice rang out outside the yard.
Mother Yan quickly went to open the gate.
The two little guys slipped in through the crack in the door.
He rushed directly into Liu Yueru's room; "Mother, did you hear the explosion outside?"
Xie Wenhua wrinkled his face and looked at Liu Yueru worriedly.
"Are you scared?" Liu Yueru pulled the two little guys to sit by the window.
Xie Wenhua suddenly thought of something and rushed out again; "Mother, I will be back soon."
"Brother Hua, what are you going to do?" Liu Yueru called out to Xie Wenhua helplessly.
The old woman had just caught up and was finally able to take a breath when she saw a dark figure passing by in front of her.
Mrs. Wang's eyes almost went dark. "Hey, my prince, can you please leave a way for this old slave to live?"
Xie Wenhua, who was running in front, had no intention of stopping at all.
Mrs. Wang put her hands on her waist, sighed deeply, and said those words that were not justified in her trembling voice...
Finally, he resigned himself to his fate and chased after him, raising his hand weakly and shouting to Xie Wenhua, "My ancestor, my ancestor, you have to slow down. It doesn't matter if I die, but you have to be careful!"
Mother Yan stood behind, looking at the pitiful Wang Po, and returned to Liu Yueru with a smile.
Yan Ge'er stood by Liu Yueru's side, looked at her carefully for a long time, and then said, "Mother, don't worry, father and others are guarding the city gate, nothing will happen."
Liu Yueru leaned against the window and murmured, "We are starting to use gunpowder now, and we don't know how dangerous it is. There is no report on the situation at the front line, and we can't go there either. Going there will only cause them more trouble."
Yan Ge'er frowned, thought seriously, and then said, "Mother, have you ever thought that maybe this is a strategy of father and his men? Showing the most powerful weapons can not only let those people see the power of gunpowder, but also deter others and make them retreat."
"Well, okay. After Hua Ge'er comes back, you all can go and rest first. There will be people on guard at the Liu Mansion, so you don't have to worry." Liu Yueru said in a gentle voice.
Not long after.
Sister Xue'er brought Liu Mubai and Xie Wenhua to Liu Yueru's yard.
"Mother Yan, please clean up the room on the side and let my sister-in-law stay there." Liu Yueru hurriedly instructed.
Liu Yueru stepped forward to support Xue'er; "Sister-in-law, you are not feeling well right now, so let Mumu sleep with me for the time being."
"Everything is fine." While Xue'er was speaking, she was listening to the constant roar outside and had a lot of thoughts in her mind.
The roar lasted all night and everyone stayed awake all night.
Liu Yueru got up early and asked Lixia to find out the news from the city wall.
