- The next day was the day that Zhao Shouzheng and the eldest princess made an appointment to meet.
He originally wanted to use his son as a shield.
"It's a pity that Zhao Hao just started practicing martial arts in the past two days, and Brother Gao grabbed him thousands of times, pulled out his tendons, and ravaged him until he was almost inhuman shape. After practicing every day, my whole body feels sore and refreshing. It is difficult to cross the threshold. How can I have the energy to go out?
Zhao Shouzheng had no choice but to go alone.
By the time he came back, it was already dark and Zhao Hao had almost recovered.
While enjoying the massage from his apprentice, he listened to his father spitting:
"His Royal Highness came into the palace yesterday and said that the two empresses were indeed compassionate. The queen gave one thousand taels and the concubine eight hundred taels, and entrusted the eldest princess to set up a porridge factory outside the city to serve porridge."
Zhao Shouzheng said, picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve excitedly and said, "Where do you think the princess plans to locate the porridge factory?"
"Isn't it also the Baiyun Temple?" Zhao Hao rolled his eyes and said.
"You guessed right." Zhao Shouzheng put his hands on his hands and laughed: "Before I opened my mouth, His Highness said, I think we should set up a porridge factory outside Baiyun Temple. The place is big enough, and there are ready-made stalls. It¡¯s enough to give porridge to the refugees.¡±
Hearing this, Zhao Hao glanced at Zhao Shouzheng and said to himself that you two are really a match made in heaven. You even have the same thoughts
¡°Could it be that there is some special meaning to you?
"That's great." He said encouragingly: "Now my father can go about raising funds with confidence, and no one will say you are in the limelight anymore."
"Yes, the three Bodhisattva empresses are here to control us. Who can steal the limelight? Who dares to say sarcastic words?"
Zhao Shouzheng said, and suddenly felt a little unconfident: "But His Highness insists on me being the director of the porridge factory, and my father is afraid that I won't be able to do it."
"Father, just don't worry." Zhao Hao had already figured out the eldest princess's thoughts, so he smiled and assisted: "His Highness has many people to do things. Just ask her for instructions and reports more often, and I guarantee that nothing will go wrong."
"Oh" Zhao Shouzheng felt relieved after hearing this, and started humming a ditty as he geared up.
He had never done anything serious in his life, and at this moment he was completely overwhelmed by the sudden sense of responsibility. He didn't realize at all that this was just a trick used by Her Royal Highness the Princess to lure him to the door.
??~~
So in the following days, Zhao Shouzheng went out early and came back late every day, and together with Tang Hezheng, Shi Jinchen and other busy people of the same year, they started to work on the porridge factory.
Speaking of which, Nanzhili's Juzi was indeed rich. More than 300 people paid more than 16,000 taels, and Zhao Shouzheng, the talker, directly chipped in 20,000 taels. In addition to the 20,000 taels provided by the eldest princess and the two empresses, it was enough to keep the victims from going hungry during the first month.
¡°And these bitches deliberately ran against Zhejiang Juzi. Huang Jieyuan and his gang were already at odds with them, so how could they let the people from South Zhili stand out? They also donated money one after another, holding back their efforts to surpass the gang of bumpkins in South Zhili.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? As soon as Jiangsu and Zhejiang take action, those in other provinces cannot remain indifferent. Although they do not have as much money as them, it is still no problem to scrape together a few thousand taels to show their sincerity.
There are also those ladies from noble and high-ranking official families. The two empresses and the eldest princess have already paid for it, who would dare to pretend not to see it? I had to come out more or less.
¡°Coupled with donations from businessmen, citizens, and all walks of life, the amount subscribed has reached close to 100,000 taels in just a few days.
As long as supervision is strong and implemented properly, the refugees should not starve to death during this long winter.
Zhao Hao felt that this was a good opportunity for disciples from wealthy families to understand the sufferings of the people, so he asked Wu Yang to take turns to accompany his master and help him with his work.
The eldest princess was also very concerned about this matter. Not only did she allocate capable manpower to Zhao Shouzheng, but she also sent a team of royal guards to help maintain order. He also repeatedly emphasized to Zhao Shouzheng that he must report at least once every other day. He also told him not to slack off and report on time, otherwise he would be very angry
Zhao Shouzheng had no choice but to cheer up and go to the eldest princess's mansion to report in the next day. As for whether there was anything else to talk about besides relief matters, Zhao Hao had no way of knowing.
The days passed by day by day, and we arrived at Nian Genxia in a blink of an eye.
After the Little New Year, the atmosphere of the New Year in Beijing is getting stronger and stronger.
Although Zhao Hao¡¯s family is in a foreign land, as the number of people in the family increases, they are lively and lively all day long, and the New Year atmosphere is stronger than that of ordinary families.
On the twenty-fourth night of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Shouzheng took his son, disciples, and nephews to sacrifice the Stove Lord. He first stuck sugar melons on the Stove Lord's mouth, and then pasted a pair of couplets on both sides of his blackened statue. The first couplet is 'Words from Heaven'"Things", the second line is "keep peace in the lower realm", begging the old man not to make random reports after he goes to heaven.
Zhao Shouzheng also specially prepared two extra bottles of the best "Yao Zi Xue Qu" for the Stove Lord to thank him for blessing the father and son during their most difficult time.
¡°I just don¡¯t know if the Stove Lord of Zhao Mansion in Beijing is the same person as the one in Caijiaxiang Courtyard in Nanjing.
¡®Speaking of which, when the house was demolished that day, I didn¡¯t remember whether I invited the old man out first¡¯
Zhao Shouzheng, who was toasting the Stove Lord, suddenly thought of the day he was elected, couldn't help but shuddered, and quickly poured the whole bottle of wine in front of the stove.
¡®Just think of it as the same person. ¡¯
??~~
The next day, the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, is the day to clean the house.
On this day, the house needs to be thoroughly cleaned inside and outside, every corner. Naturally, such an arduous task cannot be left to the long-legged brothers alone.
In addition to Wuyang, who all went into battle together, even Zhao Shizhen and Zhao Shixi were captured.
So, with their heads wrapped in hoods, their arms wearing sleeves, and holding brooms, mops, buckets, dustpans and other combat weapons, there were six people standing in line in front of the senior brother.
"What is our mission?" The senior brother held the feather duster high and was doing pre-war mobilization impassionedly.
¡°Sweep the dust!¡± The six people shouted together.
"What is our slogan?"
"There are no dead ends!"
"What is our motivation?"
¡°If you don¡¯t sweep one house, how can you sweep the whole world!¡±
The senior brother nodded with satisfaction, and then based on a scientific and rigorous attitude, he divided this general cleaning into a number of internal and external areas, and formulated separate hygiene requirements and scoring standards for each area.
¡°The dust accumulated in the interior areas of the house, under the corners of the bed, on the roof pillars and beams, etc., should be removed with a broom; the metal handles on the cabinets should also be wiped clean"
"Hurry up and get to work, it's almost noon!"
It wasn¡¯t until his butt was kicked by his master that he led the six people in despair and started working inside and outside.
There was too much dust from working in the house, so Zhao Hao had to hide in the courtyard. Fortunately, it was a rare sunny day without wind, and the warm sun was very comfortable on his body.
He asked Gao Wu to move a deck chair and place it under the south wall. He covered himself with a thin blanket, and then basked in the sun while looking through the Wu Ji Special Delivery he had just received.
This is sent from Jinling.
Opening the sturdy wooden box, it was filled with the wishes of relatives in my hometown.
