Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn
Chapter 48 Duke Liu prepares to go home
County Magistrate Li's face flushed, and he murmured, "My Lord, you are too kind. I don't have that ability! I, I, I don't have that ability."
Duke Liu chuckled and said, "You can do it. Treat them well, keep them in your heart, and develop Jinyang City well. It will surely get better and better." He was just a little dull.
Magistrate Li's eyes were slightly red and he felt an unbearable soreness. He held back his tears and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your approval. Thank you for helping these disaster victims. Thank you." The Duke cares about the people, otherwise he would not have found ways to come up with money.
Duke Liu shook his head and said, "No need to thank me. Just let me choose. I'll reserve the house and the farm and start building in the spring." They needed money to build a house. Many businessmen in the city had left and would not be back for a while. Without money, there was no point in talking about anything.
Magistrate Li pointed out several good locations in the city and said, "My Lord, these locations are very good. The county town is being rebuilt. This one is close to the county government office, and the others are close to the market."
"These villages outside the city are also very good, with good soil, but the houses are seriously collapsed, alas (?o﹏o?)."
Duke Liu didn't even look at it and had no intention of living there. He nodded and said, "Okay, just these few places. It's good enough if they collapsed. There's no need to tear them down again." We can hire a few people to look after them when the time comes, but I don't know when the capital will be recovered.
The chief clerk of Li County Magistrate did not come back. He was the one who wrote the red deed personally and collected the silver, at a 8% discount. He knew it was not fair, but the problem was that the people were short of silver.
Duke Liu took the red deed, took out a stack of silver bills, put them on the table, turned around and took Ao Han away, ignoring Magistrate Li's shouts behind him.
Ao Han said as he walked, "The Duke is so generous! He gave away so much money all at once. Don't you feel bad?" He could never earn that much in his entire lifetime.
Duke Liu frowned and covered his chest with one hand. "I feel so sad! I feel so sad. Otherwise, why would I leave so fast? I'm just afraid that I will regret it! If I regret it, I will take the banknote back."
Ao Han was surprised, "Duke, you are so righteous! Stop joking, how could you possibly snatch it back?"
Duke Liu pulled Ao Han all the way out of the government office before he stopped. He turned around and looked at the people standing in line to get porridge, shivering. He sighed and said, "I feel sorry for the money, but I can't just watch them starve to death in front of me. I can still earn money in the future."
Ao Han gave a thumbs up and said with emotion, "My Lord, you have a kind heart. This is rare in the court." How many people in the court care about the people? They all watch people die without helping.
Duke Liu helped up an old woman who was about to fall, and said softly, "Old lady, why are you wearing such thin clothes? Didn't I give you cotton clothes?" Was someone greedy?
The old woman's hair was completely white. She said tremblingly, "Yes, I have everything. I have cotton-padded clothes. I felt sorry for the child, so I took out the cotton and made up for the child's clothes. I am an old man, and I am a burden if I am still alive."
Duke Liu took off his coat from under his cloak and wrapped it around the old man. He coughed twice and said, "Don't give it to others. An old man in the family is like a treasure. You are their happiness. You are making them feel disappointed."
The old woman was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Duke Liu, "Don't kneel, it's so cold!" He took the full bowl of porridge brought by the yamen runner and handed it to the old woman, then pulled Ao Han away.
The people in the queue couldn't help but touch the old woman's clothes and exclaimed with envy, "What kind of material is this? It's so beautiful!"
The old woman was reluctant to touch it, and said softly, "I will take it and worship it when I get home. It can be a family heirloom."
"The Duke gave it to you because he was afraid you would get cold."
"I know, I just can't bear to wear it. I'll sleep in the quilt when I get home. I can't let this treasure get damaged."
When the others heard this, they all nodded, "Yes, what the Duke gave is a treasure."
The old woman looked at the people around her with envy, then ran home with the bowl in her hands.
Duke Liu gathered his cloak, pulled Ao Han back to the room, sneezed several times, and took out a thick piece of clothing to put on, and then he stopped shivering, "It's too cold, too cold, I can't stand it."
Ao Han was speechless. "It's cold, but you still gave your clothes away? Are you stupid?"
Duke Liu shook his head. "Aren't you worried that the old man would freeze to death? It's so cold, and he's wearing so little. So many people have died in this city. It's not easy for those who are still alive today. We can't let any more people die."
Ao Han threw the firewood into the stove and said, "You are just being stubborn, but His Majesty can still do anything about it. Can you let one or two people die?"
Duke Liu took a sip of hot water, held the kettle in his hands to keep warm, and let out a long sigh, "I just can't bear to watch it. I can't bear to watch it." Alas, this soft-hearted problem, when can I change it! I will never take on tasks again. Nannan's mother is right. If I take on tasks, I have to send my family away. I have to leave Nannan with a rich family fortune.
Ao Han didn't say anything more. He didn't know this Duke Liu before, but now he knows that he is a soft-hearted person! He just doesn't take on tasks and has no sense of existence in the court, otherwise he would have been promoted long ago.
Duke Liu washed his face with warm water, ate a piece of hard cake, and went to sleep wrapped in a quilt.
Ao Han was also very tired and fell asleep wrapped in a quilt on the small bed next to him.
Liu Yanyan put down the letter in her hand. She was very angry when she knew that her father had not come back yet, but she still understood her father. After all, her father was such a soft-hearted person. It would be strange for him to come back directly after seeing the people suffering.
It seems that it will take some time for my divorce to be finalized. It is really a long wait for good things to happen! I used to think it was simple, thinking that I could get a divorce if I wanted to.
I don’t know if Daddy has enough money, or if his clothes are warm! Is anyone giving him trouble? Are those people from the escort agency and the caravan useful?
Liu Yanyan picked up the pen and took a long time to write a letter, then tied it to the leg of the pigeon that Yuzhu brought.
Yuzhu released the pigeon. Liu Yanyan watched the pigeon fly up and watched for a long time before looking away.
Yuzhu then said, "Madam, when are we going back to the general's mansion? You had a quarrel with the general today, and you will be scolded by the old lady when you go back."
Liu Yanyan waved her hands, her eyes were complicated, her face expressionless, and she said, "Let's wait until Daddy comes back. With Daddy's support, he won't dare to embarrass me. I'm not afraid of him. He brings his concubine and shows off in front of me. I'm really annoyed."
Yuzhu nodded and said, "The Duke has come back to support you. It would be better for you to go back, or you will be bullied." The old lady had many ways to torture people. Just kneeling in the ancestral hall in the cold weather was enough to make people suffer.
Liu Yanyan picked up the brush, dipped it in a hint of blue, and gently smeared and dotted the rice paper.
Then on the front, add some white, some falling snow, and some red plum blossoms.
When the whole painting is finished, the white snow and red plum blossoms against the blue background add a touch of swaying, as if they came alive.
Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh, "Madam, your paintings are getting better and better. This plum blossom looks alive!"
Liu Yanyan did not speak, but waited quietly for the rice paper to dry, and said, "Have someone frame this flower."
Yuzhen nodded, "Yes, madam." Madam is really talented, and this flower is so beautiful.
