The sun is like a ball of fire. It burns people badly. The weather was stifling and there was no wind.
"It's so hot, it's killing me," said Yuxi as she fanned the child There has been no rain since the last heavy rain. During this period, Yuxi, who is sitting on the moon, is living like a year. Yuxi was able to bear it, but the three children couldn't. I can't help but put a basin of ice in the corner of the bisomb.
Mother Quan handed Yuxi a bowl of red date, tremella and lotus seed porridge and said, "it hasn't rained for half a month, and the weather is getting sultry. Princess, I'm afraid it's going to be dry. " This kind of weather is abnormal. It's very hot like last year, but it's not so sultry.
Yuxi drank up a bowl of porridge and said, "no one can stop those who should come. But it's only half a month now, and it's too early to say it's dry. "
The whole mammy thought about it and said, "princess, it was because of the drought that I entered the palace." At that time, she was only six years old.
Seeing Yuxi looking at her, all mammy said: "in those years, because of the disaster, the grain production in the field was seriously reduced. If it's just like this, you can still receive two or three percent. But I didn't expect that after the drought there was a plague of locusts. All the food in the field was eaten clean by locusts. " This is the whole Mammy's life experience.
Yu Xi's face stiffened and said, "Mammy, do you mean that once there is a drought, there will be a locust disaster immediately?"
Mother Quan nodded and said, "this situation is certainly not accidental. The princess can check the local chronicles. "
Yuxi said, "let's wait until I have the moon!" Yuxi still has three days to have the moon.
Just then, Yunqing stepped in and asked Yuxi, "have you written to wukuo without telling me?" When Yuxi wrote to wukuo, Xu Wu measured it for a long time and didn't tell Yunqing at last.
Yuxi said, "I asked Wu Kuo to buy a million stone grains. He should pay for the grain first. What's up? Is it not going well? "
Yunqing was so angry that he said, "I didn't say that there was enough food to buy? How can you take my words for granted? "
Yuxi said to the whole Mammy, "go and bring a bowl of lotus seed soup and set the king on fire." The weather is sultry and people are angry.
When mother Quan went out, Yuxi said, "I was just talking to mother Quan about the fact that it hasn't rained for a while. Mother Quan just told me that drought is often accompanied by locusts
As soon as Yunqing's face changed, he said, "what? Locust disaster? " There are three kinds of natural disasters that we are most afraid of: floods, droughts and locusts. If there is a plague of locusts, then the people will have nothing to gain.
Yuxi nodded and said, "let Tan Tuo and elder brother check the local chronicles to see if there are any records in this respect. If there are more than three such records, we must take precautions. " Locust transit, no grass left, this shows the terrible locust disaster.
Yunqing hurriedly stood up and said, "I'm going now." Finish saying, hurriedly go out. As for why Yuxi asked Wu Kuo to buy food just now, he didn't know where to throw it.
Yuxi shook his head and said to himself, "what can I do after such an acute son?" Whether it's government affairs or military affairs, we need to be calm and rational enough. Yunqing, however, is far from that level.
When all mammy came in, seeing that Yunqing was gone, she put down the lotus seed soup and said, "the king is out?" I heard that I was going to check the local chronicles. Mother didn't say anything more.
Tan Tuo and Han Jianming's action was very fast, and they replied to Yunqing at noon. "Wang Ye, the local chronicles of Shaanxi recorded a total of 12 droughts, seven of which were very serious and accompanied by locusts," Han said with a solemn face This is a very serious matter for them.
"Although it's only half a month since it rained, it's too early to say there's a drought, but we still need to take precautions," Tan said I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
Yunqing is silent and asks Tan Tuo and Han Jianming, "do you think there will be a drought?" In fact, up to now, Yunqing hopes that the drought will be a false alarm.
Han Jianming nodded, "there must be." Han Jianming is sure that Yuxi is the one who suffered from the drought, not the old farmer. Those old peasants were just used by Yuxi as a cover up.
Tan Tuo said more politely: "Lord, I asked some old peasants who have been living for many years. They all said that this year's weather is very abnormal, and there is likely to be a drought. " The people below don't know that there may be a drought. They say that the weather anomaly is based on years of experience.
Yunqing looked a little cold, and after a while said, "it will take some more time for the millet to mature." Food is the life of the people. Before the locust disaster, the government forced them to harvest it in advance, and they would not.
Tan Tuo said: "the millet can be received in the warehouse in half a month at most, which should be OK. What I'm worried about now is that if there is a locust disaster, then the whole Shaanxi will be left without any grass. "
Han Jianming suddenly asked, "what did Yuxi say?" It is impossible for Yunqing to think that drought will accompany locust disaster. So this matter is 100% related to Yuxi.
Yunqing shook his head and said, "Yuxi just asked me to check the local chronicles to see if the drought would accompany the locust disaster." Yunqing doesn't understand. How could Yuxi know about it.
"Maybe we think too much, there is no drought at all, or it's just a small drought," Tan said Now the biggest problem is that they can't control this kind of thing, so it's useless to worry about it.
"We have so much food in store that we are not afraid of drought and locust disaster," Han said These grains are their foundation.
Hearing this, Yunqing said, "the princess asked Wu Kuo to buy a million stone grains in Jiangxi and Anhui. These grains are already on their way to the northwest. " Wu Kuo's movement is very fast.
Tan Tuo said in a low voice, "if there is a drought and locust disaster, then the princess is really the avalokitesvara of the next generation." They have been preparing since last year, storing enough food. As Han Jianming said, even if there are natural disasters, they are not afraid.
Yunqing said, "I still hope that all this is our alarmism." Once there is a drought, it's not just the northwest. The surrounding provinces will not escape.
"We also hope that what we are worried about will not happen," Tan and Han said in unison In case of drought and locust disaster, the loss can't be calculated.
Three days later, Yuxi has a moon. The first three moons, Yuxi to wash three times. This time it's better than before. It's only washed twice.
From the head to the feet, Yuxi feels relaxed. After taking a bath, Yuxi sits in front of the dresser.
Looking at the round face in the mirror, Yuxi couldn't help pinching her face and laughing: "it's all meat, and it needs to be reduced again." Sitting on the moon, Yuxi has reduced a lot, but he still has a lot of fat.
Qu's mother has a high bun for Yuxi, which makes her face smaller. Qu said as she combed her hair: "the princess is right now, not fat or thin." The older generation felt that fullness was a blessing.
Yuxi chuckled and said, "I can't wear any clothes before. It's OK!" It's as thin as it was before birth, that's right.
At noon, the family got together for dinner. After dinner, liu'er and Yuxi said, "Mom, you let me take care of ah Hao for a month. Now it's a month." It's about taking care of, in fact, playing with ah Hao. Liu Er herself is only four and a half years old. How could she take care of Qihao.
Yuxi asked with a smile, "what's the matter? Is a Hao too naughty, so don't like to play with him? "
Seeing this, Liu Er shook her head and said: "Niang, although ah Hao is naughty, he will be obedient as long as he coaxes. It's just that I've stepped back since I didn't practice. I have to make it up. "
Yuxi smiled and nodded: "from tomorrow, a Hao will take him back to the main courtyard. You don't have to play with him every day."
Liu Er heaved a long breath.
Yuxi looks at liu'er and chuckles. Let Liu Er play with ah Hao, it's really difficult for her. But this month, Liu Er didn't slack off, but took good care of ah Hao as much as she could. For Yuxi, that's enough.
Before noon, Yunqing and Yuxi said, "take another day off, and then take care of the government affairs." He's really in a state of anxiety at this time. If there were not some able officials like Tan Tuo and Han Jianming to help him, he might not be able to support it.
Yuxi smiled and said, "don't rest any more, let's start tomorrow! You are also tired in this period of time. If you take over the administration earlier, you will be able to relax earlier. "
Yun Qing happily promised, "OK, tomorrow." In a few days, you won't have to be busy from morning to night every day.
Another ten days and months passed in a twinkling of an eye, and there was still no rain in these ten days. The hot sun dried the ditch, and the fish and shrimps in the ditch turned white.
Jujube was afraid of the heat. It was hot and stuffy that day. She couldn't stand it and ran to live with liu'er. Sister feeling good, jujube is willing to live in her yard, Liu Er is very happy, but also jujube chose the coolest room.
Not only jujube can't stand the heat, but also Qihao and ruige'er can't stand it. The ice was used at night, and the four brothers couldn't sleep steadily. If you don't sleep well, you will get sick easily. Even Qi Hao, who is not ill on weekdays, is ill, let alone ruige'er.
It took a few days for the chickens to fly and the dogs to jump. Only a few children could be sharp. Yuxi looked at the children with a sad look and couldn't help discussing with Yunqing and said, "Qingzhu yard is cooler. I want to take the children to live in it. What do you think?" As the name suggests, green bamboo yard is a yard full of bamboo. One of Ji Xuan's staff liked bamboo very much, so they asked people to transplant a lot of bamboo into the yard. Over the past decade, most of the yard has been covered with bamboo. Of course, it was not called green bamboo yard before, but yuzhuju.
Yun Qing said, "is it too cold in the green bamboo yard?" The green bamboo yard is a little too shady. He's OK. He's afraid that four children can't stand it.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "if it's not too hot, I don't want to move inside. When it's cooler, I'll move back to the main courtyard." It was so hot that several children ate much less than before.
Yunqing nodded: "you don't think it's in the way, so move it!" He also wants to live in Qingzhu yard, which is much hotter than Qingzhu yard.
PS: I have something to do today. The update may be postponed to 10 p.m. sorry.
