Chapter 347

After learning that the princess of Jin would not have any money to reward before the new year, people's enthusiasm was not as good as before.

Everyone is a bit lazy. If you can't, you'll have to deal with it carelessly.

In contrast to their procrastination, the bamboo garden is full of energy.

Because it has been closed in recent years, many of the victims who came out to beg began to return, and the huts filled with victims before became increasingly empty.

Those porridge sheds at the gate of the city began to evacuate one after another.

Looking at the next empty porridge shed, a mother-in-law was brushing the pot and asked the responsible mother Shi: "when will we put this porridge shed?"

Stone mother looked around and said: "shiziye said to put it on the 15th of the first month, can't let the people's Congress have nothing to eat."

It's going to be on the fifteenth day of the first month!

The woman who brushes the pot looks at the empty porridge shed next door with envy.

"You, don't envy others." Mother Shi doesn't know what these people are thinking. "Shiziye also said that you have worked hard these days. When we remove the porridge shed, we can each get another two liang of silver."

When they heard this, they were all in a daze.

When they worked as servants in the palace of the king of Jin, their monthly silver was less than two Liang. Some people only had one or two Liang a month, and the reward was two Liang a month. How could people not be overjoyed.

"So... Mother Shi... Does everyone have two or two?" Some women are still not at ease, so they stretch out two fingers and draw in front of mother Shi's eyes.

"It's two. Everyone has two." Mother Shi is always easygoing and generous. As long as it's not a matter of principle, she is willing to laugh with everyone.

When they were laughing together, a very small and thin young girl stood outside the porridge shed timidly, with a face ready to speak

He said: "please... Excuse me..."

A woman who stood outside waved her hand and said, "it's not time for porridge. You can wait a little longer."

"No, it's not," said the young girl, looking embarrassed. "I'm not asking when to make porridge."

"Do you want to know when we're going to set it up?" Another daughter-in-law in the shed also said, "we'll put it on the 15th of the first month!"

"Neither... Neither." When she was young, the girl moved timidly to the pillar of the porridge shed, looked at mother Shi's apron and said, "I... I just want to ask that mother if her apron is colored silk embroidery..."

Stone mother a listen to this woman asked unexpectedly is oneself, also some strange looking down at oneself waist wear of apron.

The apron was specially sent by Xiayi girl in the mansion a few days ago. She said it was a little bit of the lady's heart before the Chinese new year, and specially told her not to take it away. She had to take it out every day, so she put it around her waist.

"You mean my apron?" Mother Shi walked out of the porridge shed with a smile and said, "it's from the government. It's not only me, but also them."

It's just that they all have handkerchiefs. They can't tie them like her.

"Can you... Can you give me a look?" The girl was still timid, but her eyes were full of desire. Stone mother thought, left is just an apron, what can't show people? Also very generous will that apron from the waist down, handed the girl.

The girl carefully took the apron in her hand, carefully looked at the pattern outlined with colored silk thread, but suddenly squatted there crying with the apron in her arms.

"Girl, what's the matter with you." Suddenly such as up of cry, hit stone mother a unprepared, she also concern of ask a way.

Unexpectedly, the girl knelt down to mother Shi, kowtowed her head and said, "can you please tell me who made this apron?"

"This..." for a moment, mother Shi held the girl up and said, "it's not that I didn't tell you... It's from our wife... I don't know who did it."

As soon as the girl heard this, she followed her.

"Girl... You're OK. Why do you ask this?" The other woman couldn't help being curious and asked.

"My... My name is Zhao shunniang... Because the embroidery technique is like my sister..." the young girl who claimed to be Zhao shunniang choked in her apron. "I want to see if she is..."

Then she half bit her lip and gently stroked the embroidery on her apron, as if it had really come from her sister.

Mother Shi also exchanged a look with the public in some embarrassment.

Only a woman said, "I heard that Liji silk shop in the city seems to have been selling this for more than half a year... But I don't know if it's the girl you said..."

The woman's words seemed to suddenly ignite Zhao shunniang's hope. She looked at the woman gratefully and returned her apron to her

After wiping the tears on her face, she quickly got up and rushed to the city gate.

Unexpectedly, she was stopped by the soldiers guarding the door.

"Girl, if you are not from the capital, you can't enter this gate at will." The soldier who was guarding the city was very friendly. "If you come to take refuge with your relatives, you have to let them come to pick you up."

The thin Zhao shunniang stood at the gate of the city and begged, "I'm not sure if my sister is in the city, so I'll go in and have a look. If she's not, I promise to come out of the city."

Unexpectedly, the soldier who was guarding the city shook his head: "girl, don't embarrass us."

Just when Zhao shunniang was in despair, she heard mother Shi come over and say, "this Junye, why don't you let me take her in?"

With that, mother Shi took out the token of Jin palace.

These days, mother Shi is in charge of porridge in and out of the city gate. The guards at the city gate have known her for a long time.

So instead of checking the token in mother Shi's hand, they pointed to the small room beside them and said to mother Shi, "if mother is willing to be a guarantor, she will register in our master's book, and naturally she will be able to take the girl into the city."

Mother Shi nodded with them with a smile, and then motioned to Zhao shunniang to follow him.

Seeing someone willing to help herself, Zhao shunniang was very excited to follow.

After registering some information such as name and native place, she was led to Liji Satin shop by mother zhashi.

"This is the Liji silk house you are looking for." Mother Shi said to her, "you can ask the shopkeeper Li in it." Said, stone mother also put the apron into the hands of Zhao shunniang: "no matter this apron is not out of the hands of elder sister, you keep it as a read."

Zhao shunniang also full of gratitude to the stone mother thanks again and again.
