Chapter 211： , The grain is lost

Chapter 211, the grain is lost

After the Double Ninth Festival, there is one more thing in Daohua’s daily life, and that is to walk horses on the outskirts of the city.

Sometimes I go with Zhou Jingwan, sometimes she is alone.

Ms. Li was worried about an accident. Every time she went out, besides Wang Maner and Qin Xiaoliu, Daohua had to bring a wife and two young men behind her.

The days get busy, and time flies quickly, in a blink of an eye, it’s mid-October.

One day, Daohua came back from outside with red dates. When she returned to the main courtyard, she saw Mrs. Li sitting sadly.

"Mother, what's wrong with you? Did someone make you angry?"

Ms. Li glanced at her daughter, then recruited her to sit down next to her, and then smiled and said, "Who would dare to bully me with you here!"

Daohua smiled: "Then what's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Li sighed: "Your father just came back and said that the batch of grains sent to Fenxi was lost!"

"What?!" Daohua's eyes widened, with a look of surprise, "How could it be lost? Didn't it mean that the grain seeds were escorted by the army? Can you lose it like this?"

Mrs. Li: "I heard that I met a robber."

Daohua couldn't believe it: "Are the robbers so powerful these days, even the army dare to **** it?"

Mrs. Li sighed: "It wasn't because of the drought in the north two years ago. Many people couldn't live anymore and went up to the mountains to become robbers. Although the years have improved a bit over the past two years, the land hasn't slowed down yet. Come, the grain output is not high, and the stomach is not enough to fill the stomach, and the banditry is getting more and more serious."

Daohua narrowed her eyebrows: "Don’t those robbers know that they are going to plant the grain? They robbed it, so how can others live?"

Mrs. Li: "Being a bandit, can you still count on them to have a conscience and consider others? Thank God for not killing people casually."

Daohua looked worried: "Then what should we do now? It's not that the people in Fenxi are waiting for the winter wheat to be planted, and there will be food next year. Now that the grain seed is lost, isn't it a disaster? "

Mrs. Li shook her head. It is a matter of people's livelihood, but she can't solve it with a wife in the house.

Daohua sighed, sighing that it was not easy for the ancient people.

Suddenly, Daohua raised her head fiercely, and asked eagerly: "Mother, if the grain is lost, my father won't be held responsible, right?"

Mrs. Li shook her head and calmly said, "No, your father has completely handed over the grain seeds to Governor Guo, and there is a handover of the official documents. If the above is to blame, Governor Guo will be blamed, and it has nothing to do with your father. "

Daohua is relieved now.

In ancient times, people were very particular about sitting together. If something happened to the cheap father, they would not think about it.

Mrs. Li frowned: "But."

Daohuaxin said: "But what?"

Mrs. Li sighed: "Your father intended to accumulate merits by pointing to the grain seeds. If the food and clothing problem of the people in Fenxi Province is solved, even if your father is not an official there, he will have credit for providing grain seeds. What a pity, everything is gone now."

Daohua nodded, and then said with a worried expression: "Governor Guo is Xiao Yeyang's uncle. If he is punished, that guy will be worried."

Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

On the second day Daohua knew that the grain was missing, Xiao Yeyang came to Yan Mansion.

At this time, Daohua was feeding the red jujube fodder at the stable, and saw Guanjia Sun and Qin Wu hurriedly coming to the stable, pulling the horse and leaving.

As usual, when encountering Daohua, the housekeeper Sun would have to say a few greetings, and Qin Wu would also touch the red dates, but this time, the two of them just greeted Daohua and left quickly.

"What's wrong with this? Steward Sun and the others seem to be going out." Daohua looked at the backs of several people leaving in confusion.

Qin Xiaoliu, who was at the side of    also looked puzzled, and quickly said, "Girl, let me inquire about it?"

Inaba nodded: "Go."

When the words fell, Qin Xiaoliu ran away in a hurry.

After a while, Qin Xiaoliu ran back: "Girl, the uncle is back, and the little prince, he has also come to our house, and he is in the front yard now!"

Daohua quickly threw the forage in her hand into the manger, and said with her eyebrows: "The college is only on vacation at the end of the month. Why are they coming back at this time? Is it for grain seeding?"

Daohua quickly walked towards the main courtyard. As soon as she reached the door, she saw Madam Li and Yan Wenxiu hurriedly walking out.

"Mother, brother, where are you going?"

Mrs. Li: "Your brother and I are a bit urgent now. We will talk to you when we are done." After saying this, the two hurried away.

Seeing this, Daohua was silent for a while, and said to Wang Man'er behind him: "Go, let's take a look at the front yard."

Out of the Chuhua Gate, Daohua saw Xiao Yeyang sitting in the pavilion of the outer courtyard.

Different from the usual spirits, at this moment, this guy looks a little frown, with a worried look between his eyebrows.

"What's wrong with you?"

Daohua walked into the pavilion.

Xiao Yeyang was worried about his uncle, Governor Guo. He was about to get angry when he saw someone coming to disturb him. When he looked up and found that it was Daohua, he immediately suppressed his anger, and said, "Why are you here?"

"I should ask you this." Daohua walked to the other side and sat down. Seeing Xiao Yeyang frowning, she asked, "Are you worried about your uncle?"

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua and nodded: “Because of the severe drought in the past two years, banditry has been breeding in many places in the north. My uncle was appointed as the governor to eliminate the banditry.”

“Among them, Fenxi has the most serious disasters, so there are also the most bandits.”

"The root cause of the breeding of banditry is because there is no food. Therefore, if you want to completely eliminate the problem of banditry, you must find a fundamental solution."

"Seriously, Lord Yan has produced high-yield grains. Not only is the emperor happy, but my uncle is also happy, so that he can solve the problem of banditry sooner."

"However, at this time, the grain is lost!"

If the harvest is confiscated in Fenxi next year, the banditry will definitely become more and more serious. This is a serious negligence for the uncle who is the governor of the suppression of bandits. Even if there is a cause for it, the uncle will be punished.

"If there is a major disturbance, it would be easy to lose the officialdom and abandon the jue."

The Guo family has many political enemies in the court. They will not let go of such a good opportunity, and they will definitely severely hurt the Guo family.

Listening to these, Daohua's heart is also very heavy.

I really want to cause an uncontrollable disorder, I am afraid that I will be exiled and copy the family, right?

At this time, Yan Wenxiu walked over and looked at Xiao Yeyang: "Little Prince, my mother has already sent people to collect the remaining grain seeds in various villages, but the amount may not be very large."

No way, the time for planting the high-yield grain seeds was too short, and their family also harvested one season. In addition to their own seeds, they also distributed some to the good people, so they didn’t save much.

Furthermore, the time when the grain was lost was too unlucky. In early October, the Yan family had just planted winter wheat grain in the field.
