Hearing the noise, Tan couldn't help but lift the curtain and watch a long line.
Tan Aoshuang was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask Yuxi, "mother, where are we going?"
When Tan Aoshuang was at her mother's house, she didn't go out of the city except to go to Lingshan temple with her mother to worship Buddha. But she knew that Yuxi did not believe in the god Buddha, plus the things just now, let her go out of the city is very bottomless.
Yuxi didn't sell this time, saying, "let's go to the relief hospital." The alms house is full of desperate women. Because of the large number of people, they were placed outside the city.
An hour later, he arrived at the relief hospital. The relief home is located at the foot of a mountain. Here is a beautiful place with beautiful scenery.
Tan Aoshuang has been to the kindergartens twice with Mrs. tan. The kindergartens are noisy because they live in children. But here, it's very quiet.
In the distance, I saw a row of sheds with vegetables planted in front of them. These vegetables are green and grow well. There are still people in the vegetable field who are catching insects and fertilizing them.
Seeing that Tan Aoshuang was looking at the vegetable field, mother Yin, the chief steward of the relief hospital, explained: "Prince and concubine, we grow our own food and vegetables." When these people arrive at the relief home, they have to rely on themselves to survive. People who don't come here are all cornered by a big crime. It's a good day for them to come to the almsgiving house and eat well.
Yuxi said, "there are only a few fields here. So, they basically eat potato and sweet potato. " The sweet potato was introduced into the Central Plains by Tian Yang six years ago. Now, it's all over the world.
"It's good to have sweet potatoes and yams," Yin said Only rich and noble families can have rice and white noodles every day. People like them are very happy when they have a full meal, clothes and clothes, and don't get beaten or scolded any more.
Tan Aoshuang enters a shed with Yuxi. At this time, there were six women in the room making clothes. As soon as I saw that dress was of style, I knew it belonged to a man.
Seeing these people standing up, Yuxi waved and said, "don't be polite, do your work."
People here change more frequently, so they don't know the identity of Yuxi. Seeing that mother-in-law Yin asked them to continue their work, they would all sit down and continue to sew clothes.
Out of the shed, Tan Aoshuang asked, "mother, mother, are these clothes made for soldiers in the army?"
Cleverness is the greatest advantage of Tan Aoshuang. Only by Tan Tuo's nurturing Mammy, teach some circuitous. Although Yuxi knew her shortcoming, she didn't have another mother before marriage. Once some views are formed, it is difficult to change them if they are not what they see, what they hear and what they hear. To send a nurturing mother to preach in the past will only repel Tan Aoshuang, and it will be more difficult to change her point of view.
"Yuxi nodded and said:" they do the quartermaster, will give money by piece
Tan Aoshuang is surprised: "return the money?" She thought it was all done for free.
"It's impossible for the alms to keep them there all the time. Now work can make them save money, and when they have the ability to support themselves, they will leave. " The relief home is just a place for them for a while, not a place for them to provide for the aged.
Tan Aoshuang asked, "mother, where can they go?" A group of women and children who do not have the power to fight back, even if they have the survival skills, no one will be bullied.
"They will be introduced to work in an embroidered house or a large family, or to start a small business by themselves. If they are willing to remarry, the almsgiving house will help them to look for candidates. " The people selected by the almsgiving house are not only good and diligent, but also have no bad habits. This bad habit refers to whoring, gambling and swearing.
Tan Aoshuang asked, "they go out to work or open a shop to do business. Aren't they afraid that their former husband's family or their mother's family will find them again?" It's also a troublesome matter.
"The women who go out of the relief home know that they are weak, so they will help each other when they go out. As long as I can stand, I'm not afraid that my former husband's family or his mother's family will come back. " People who go out of the relief home will donate money and goods to the relief home as long as they have a good life.
Tan Aoshuang was shocked.
Just as he was talking, suddenly a child's cry came from afar. A closer look, is a three or four year old girl fell, next to a seven or eight year old child is coaxing her.
Yuxi went to pick up the little girl and put her in a flat place. She juggled out a candy: "look, what is this?"
The little girl's eyes brightened and said timidly, "madam, can I eat with my sister?"
Tan Aoshuang listened to this, his heart moved slightly. For the children of poor families, candy is a delicacy in the sky. But the child, even want to share with her sister.
Yuxi takes a candy from Meilan and hands it to them: "you can give it to anyone." Every time he comes to the relief center, Yuxi brings some sweets. These sweets are for the children in the relief.
The little girl and her sister thanked Yuxi, and then they went back happily with wild vegetables.
Mother in law Yin and Tan Aoshuang said: "little madam, this big girl is Xiaomi. Because her father died, uncle not only occupied their property, but also wanted to sell their mother and daughter. The little child is called wheat. Her grandmother wants her grandson. Her sister who drowned wheat wants to throw the wheat into the river. If her mother doesn't want the wheat, her grandmother drives them out. " All the women who came to the relief hospital had a history of blood and tears.
Looking at the child's back, Tan Aoshuang is in a heavy mood.
For lunch, Yuxi and Tan Aoshuang used it in Zhuangzi. Yuxi didn't let them make extra food. They ate the same food as the women in the relief hospital.
A pot of potherb, a dish of fried beans, a dish of fried eggs with leek.
Although the potherb is too bad to eat, Tan Aoshuang still eats it one mouthful at a time. If you can't eat it, drink water.
Yuxi secretly places his head down.
After lunch, Yuxi is ready to go back with Tan Aoshuang. Walking to the entrance, I saw a disheveled woman kneeling in front of a woman in a dark red dress bowing: "please let me stay, please."
Mother Yin's face changed slightly when she saw the woman. Without waiting for Yuxi to ask, mother-in-law Yin said, "madam, this woman's surname is Xia. She was rubbed down by her mother-in-law, and then she was not pregnant. She was laid off by her husband's family and would not accept her. She jumped into the river when she had no way to go. After being rescued, she was sent to the relief hospital."
No matter in the kindergartens or the relief homes, Yu Xi is called the wife of the steward.
Tan Aoshuang was a little puzzled and asked, "why did it become like this now when he arrived at the relief hospital?" The women I saw in the relief yard just now, though not very well dressed, were all clean and tidy, and their faces were very peaceful.
Yin's mother-in-law sighed and said: "she has been in the relief hospital for three years, because she has good embroidery skills, she was invited by the embroidering room. After she made money, she went back to her mother's home to see her parents. As a result, her mother not only coaxed the money she had saved in recent years, but also cheated her to go home and sell her to a 40 year old gangster for a hundred Liang silver. " For several years in the almsgiving house and the embroidering room, the woman was fed white, white and tender because she was full of food and had not been exposed to the sun. Even if you are twenty-four years old, you can sell it for a good price.
After a pause, mother-in-law Yin said: "the old gangster came to marry her at a high price because he wanted to treat her as a money spinner. Unfortunately, when the embroiderer knew that she had changed her marriage to an old gangster, he resigned her. The old gangster wanted her to pick up the guests when he saw the abacus was lost. She didn't want to beat her up. Seeing that she can't live, she wants to go back to the relief home again. " The embroidered room has four liang of wages in a month. The woman's mother's family is short-sighted only for immediate benefits, but the old gangster wants to treat her as a cash cow. Unfortunately, her calculation failed at last.
Others dare not provoke the old gangster, but the relief home is run by the queen. As long as the hospice is willing to take her in again, she can escape the man's persecution and survive.
Yuxi didn't want to listen any more. He said to tan Aoshuang, "it's time for us to go back."
When Tan Aoshuang got on the carriage, he took a special look at the poor woman who was suffering.
After getting on the carriage, Tan Aoshuang looked at Yuxi, who had closed his eyes, and asked, "isn't the almsgiving house for these women who have no way to go? Why did she kneel down and beg, and the steward didn't agree to accept her. "
Yuxi did not open his eyes and said, "the almsgiving house will only take care of it once." It means that the relief hospital can only save once, and then it won't be accepted..
"Why?" Tan Aoshuang asked
Yuxi's answer is very cold: "all died once and can't absorb education, why save again?"
Tan Aoshuang was so shocked that he didn't know how to reply.
After returning to the palace, shumeng beat water to clean Tan Aoshuang's face: "prince, where did the empress take you? Why are clothes and shoes so dirty? "
"To the relief."
The book dream Leng next, said: "how to go to the relief hospital? The place is dirty and messy, and the people who live in it are all bad or have problems. How can the empress take you there? " What can I do if I get those diseases. Empress, it's not particular.
The children adopted by charity hall are all abandoned babies. They are often given food, drink and money. However, the relief hospital, under the distortion of the intentional people, was not very good in the external evaluation.
When Tan Aoshuang heard this, his face suddenly turned black: "how did I tell you before entering the palace that you should be careful when you come to the palace? You are taking my words to the ear. " Even if she is more important than the queen in the heart of book dream, it can only be put in the heart and can't be said.
Looking at Tan Aoshuang's face, shumeng is shocked to realize that he said something wrong again: "Niang, maidservant is wrong." In this way, shumeng's face changed a lot: "girl, girl, slave girl knows it's wrong, you can spare the slave girl this time!"
Tan Aoshuang shook his head: "I have given you too many opportunities, but you can't learn from them. Shumeng, the palace is not for you. " Last time the queen accused her, she wanted to give shumeng another chance, but now she has changed her mind.
Shumeng doesn't want to leave the palace and Tan Aoshuang.
Tan Aoshuang has made up his mind: "you are old, and I will let you find a satisfactory marriage." Originally, she was going to ask her mother to help her find a marriage. But today, what she saw and heard is that Tan Aoshuang thinks it's safer to help shumeng find her own.
PS: the second change is at nine.
