After the Chinese New Year, the four princes acted as the government agent. The illness came like a mountain, and Emperor Qingyuan was already bedridden.

The cascading effect is that there are other princes who are ready to move. They used to act secretly, but now they are starting to build momentum for themselves.

The four princes did not know that their names were written in the edict by Emperor Qingyuan, so they are still working hard to win the hearts of the people through the famine in Xizhou.

Xie Ning was busy with the accounts in the mansion, Qiulian came over and said, "Master returned to the mansion and went straight to the study."

Xie Ning glanced at the funnel, and it was not four quarters, it was early for lunch, and Shan Nian must be hungry and busy again.

"Take it here, and I'll get a bowl of noodles for the master."

The old duck soup stewed for the two milk dolls in the stove was just cooked, and the dough was prepared daily. Xie Ning used a knife to thin a pot of noodles, cooked it and filled the bowl, scooped the old duck soup, and spread the noodles. Full of duck meat.

Xie Ning personally carried the bowl and headed to the study.

Zhou Jinnian was reading and writing, and he felt hungry when he smelled the aroma of food.

The Laoyatang soup is milky white and the meat is crispy and fragrant. It makes me appetite when I look at it. Zhou Jinnian took the noodle bowl and took a sip of the soup before turning over the book while eating the noodles.

Xie Ning didn't bother him, and watched Zhou Jinnian's writing quietly.

It was so quiet that the two little guys were disturbed. Xiao Jingcheng took his sister and ran over, like a little milk dog smelling.

The two little milk babies can walk independently, but they are dumbfounded.

The short dump in the front held up two small hands, and the small milk group in the back opened his arms left and right, crossed his legs and made a deep foot, and appeared at the entrance of the study.

"Oh!" Xiaopang Cheng called to the two fathers in the room with a small mouth.

Seeing the bowl in front of my father is really familiar, isn't it for eating?

Xiao Jing Cheng couldn't figure it out, so he squatted down with his claws, clutching the threshold with his little hand, pouting his **** and trying to move forward.

He raised his right foot several times, but he couldn't cross the high threshold, and he was so anxious that he yelled, "Woo horse!"

In the end, the nurse held him across the threshold and put him in the study.

Xiao Jingcheng raised two small hands again, swayed to find his father, Zhou Jinnian picked him up and put him on the desk.

The daughter was in her arms.

Xiao Jingcheng was sitting on the desk in a small group, with two chubby feet facing each other, holding his claws and pointing at the noodle bowl, "Oh!"

"Call father." Zhou Jinnian knew that the youngest son was going to eat.

"Hmm..." Xiao Jingcheng rushed forward and was caught by Xie Ning.

Although Sister Wan is young, she actually knows it. She knows that her father loves her and responds to requests. She holds her head up and looks at her father, "Ah..."

Zhou Jinnian immediately twisted the noodles from her little finger and fed it into her daughter's open mouth.

The little fat Cheng swallowed, shook his head to look at his sister, and also learned, "Ah..."

Zhou Jinnian took the chopsticks to cut the noodles, Xiao Pang Cheng was anxious, thinking that his father would not give it to him, he hugged him and shook it up and down.

It was hard to eat, and Xiao Pang Cheng finally got a piece of noodles.

Xiaopang Cheng sucked, and the noodles disappeared in his mouth. The noodles were stewed so softly that he swallowed them without even chewing them.

Sister Wan didn't have any interest after tasting it. She kicked her legs to the ground and walked back and forth. She had to take a look at every corner of the study, and she had to touch every piece of wood.

She is quiet most of the time, only touching her hands and feet quietly.

The little fat Cheng smacked his lips, without a taste, "Ah..."

Zhou Jinnian gave another sip, while Xie Ning took advantage of the little son's mouth and hurriedly took it out of the study. He knew that her husband was busy with affairs recently and did not want the children to be disturbed.

Xiao Jingcheng swallowed the noodles in his mouth, so he clamored to go back to eat, kicking and humming anxiously, "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Cheng'er, let's go find and play with brother." Xie Ning clutched the back of his head and rubbed his little emotions to appease him.

Sister Wan sits obediently in the nurse's arms, holding her two small paws with each other, holding a small face, looking at the noisy brother in front, silent...

The group moved from the master’s study to the master’s study.

Brother Yu was holding a brush while practicing calligraphy. He was happy to see his sister coming, "Daddy! Where did my sister come from?"

"Come from the garden." Xie Ning put down his little son, took Brother Yu's shoulders, and went to read the words written by Brother Yu.

After playing in the small study for a while, the two little dolls couldn't stay, and the three little masters went to the garden together.

Xie Ning ordered the servants to prepare some fruits to send, and went to the Jinnian study again.

In the study, Zhou Jinnian was still in the same posture as before, sitting at the table while reading and writing. The tableware had been taken away by the next person.

When Ning Lang approached Zhou Jinnian, he said, "The four princes must go to suppress the mob in person."

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, the common people's method of fighting the famine, first flee the famine and then revolt. To put it bluntly, the famine is that there is not enough food, low agricultural productivity, so severe taxes and taxes, and the illegal sale of food and grass under the ignorance of corrupt officials. Natural disasters are just the last straw that crushes camels.

"The price of food in the capital is also rising recently, and the caravan that I arranged to deliver the food has not yet been announced." Xie Ning couldn't help but feel anxious, and told the emperor's ear that there were only a few words. It is conceivable that Xizhou is now in such a desperate situation. Realm.

After this day, the court encouraged large families to donate food to the disaster area.

The amount of food raised is not satisfactory. The famine in Xizhou cannot be a problem in Xizhou, it is a problem in the general environment.

The problem is that there is plenty of food in the whole country, and it is not enough for the people of the whole country.

However, the price of food in the capital has risen, and the husband and wife sang a play together, of course, with the support of the four princes.

So the imperial court caught the shopkeepers of rice shops that raised prices, and large households who donated less food, and so on.

Since ancient times, the imperial court ransacked the homes of large households as soon as they could not adjust the grain. There were only peasant uprisings and no merchants' tricks.

When the common people of a dynasty can't get enough to eat, the imperial court can no longer take care of the construction of civilization, and the imperial court can only scrape a layer of rich people's grease.

As a victim, Xie Ning called the families of these businessmen together to discuss countermeasures.

...

When Xie Ning took a seat at the big restaurant in the capital, Xie Ning leisurely drank tea, and a bunch of wealthy people got into the hot pot before he stepped forward.

"The court just wants food, we just give it, and when the treasury is full, it doesn't mean it won't be returned."

The Midian family is in pain, "I don't know when I can get it back..."

Some people who sell gold, silver and jade are even more anxious, "The imperial court asks for food. It's okay if your family has it. My family has a meal of gruel, and this gold can't be used as a food donation!"

Xie Ning stood up, "If you believe in my Xieji business, I can figure out how to donate your gold as food to the court."

"..."

If there is one willing, there will be a second willing. Let the dead horse be a living horse doctor, at least you don’t have to worry about the court ransacking your home.

So Xie Ning took these extras and hired a caravan to go to another country to exchange food. The travel expenses were all covered by the Xieji company.

Xie Ning made a deal and the court released the people.

The burden was on Xie Ning, fortunately Zhou Jinnian supported him behind him.

At the end of March, the four princes left Xizhou with a few grains, and went to the disaster area to wait for Xie Ning's supply.

...

The famine caused Xie Ning to cherish food even more.

At noon in April, the family had a meal. Xie Ning took a small wooden bowl to feed Sister Wan herself. Sister Wan took a small wooden spoon in her hand and beat, but she opened her mouth obediently when the food came.

Xie Ning confirmed that her daughter was here to repay her gratitude.

Xiao Jingcheng, who is also 17 months old, is here to take revenge.

He walks very steadily now, with short hands and short legs. He walks like a duckling. Don't look at Xiao Jingcheng's enthusiasm for walking now. He wants his father to hold him as soon as he leaves the house.

At first, Xie Ning frowned to watch the younger son making a fuss about eating, and did not say anything to affect the younger son's appetite.

Xiao Jingcheng focused on climbing the wicker chair in the corner. The nurse looked at the opportunity to scoop a spoonful of rice to feed it, and he opened his mouth along the way.

Just as soon as the food came into his mouth, he "poofed" and sprayed it all out.

Now Xie Ning couldn't bear it anymore, and handed his daughter's rice bowl to Daddy Lin Jin. He used to carry Xiao Jingcheng out of the lobby and searched for a corner with no one.

"Hungry?" Xie Ning asked calmly, holding back his anger.

Probably all the little babies are very happy to be picked up. Xiao Jingcheng raised his face and hugged his father's leg, with an innocent and innocent look, "Ah wow... da da..."

Xie Ning bent over and put a finger on his brain door, not allowing him to snuggle himself, and then asked, "Can you eat well?"

Xiao Jingcheng blinked his big eyes and held his little finger in the room, "Mum?"

Xie Ning squatted down, looked directly at the younger son, nodded and said, "Well, we are all eating in the house, can you eat well? If you spit out the rice, Daddy won't eat it for you."

Xiao Jing Cheng pouted, her chubby face was puckered and round.

"It's useless to pouting, do you know how many hungry people in Xizhou can't eat? They eat the bark, so you just spoiled the rice?"

Xiao Jing Cheng stopped pursing her lips, and was about to walk into the house with her lips pouting, not wanting to face the fierce father.

Xie Ning thought he was behaved and followed him down the steps, so he didn't stop and followed behind his ass.

Xiao Jingcheng walked to the threshold, turned his back, and sat on the threshold first, then slid down on the floor of the house with his little butt, then lay down on the upper body, lifted his fat legs, and successfully escaped from prison.

"Hahaha..." Brother Yu held the bowl and looked at his younger brother with a smile. He didn't know, he did it like this when he was a kid.

Crossing the threshold, Xiao Jingcheng was completely dirty, alas... it's all because of the Zhou family's high threshold.

Now the nurse mixed the delicious food and then fed it to Xiao Jingcheng. He thought it was fleshy, ‘ah oh’ and ate it in one bite.

When he sent another spoonful of rice, he didn't taste good again. This time he didn't "puff puff" in his mouth. He directly pushed the spoon with his small claw, and sprinkled a spoonful of rice on the floor.

Xie Ning was really angry. She didn't want to save her little son anymore. He and his husband worked hard for the famine in Xizhou, wishing to treat one grain of rice as ten grains, and they could not spoil the food just because their son was young.

Xie Ning went over with a straight face, then took Xiao Jing Cheng out and placed it under the eaves outside the lobby.

He became serious, with cold eyebrows, "Why are you not being obedient today, are you? Eat well if you are hungry, don't eat if you are not hungry."

Turning around and telling the nurse and the servant, "You are not allowed to feed the second young master privately."

It was because Xiao Jingcheng was the only young man in the Zhou family in the capital, and he was pampered up and down in the mansion, especially the two older generations. Anyway, the older Xiao Jingcheng is, the less obedient he is.

He can understand clearly, but he can't say it, but he just doesn't listen.

So he has to break off his younger son's temper.

"Wow... ah... ah ah ah..." Xiao Jing Cheng was scared to cry by his father's serious expression and angry tone.

The big eyes were teary, the mouth was open, the boss made a sharp cry, and he looked at Daddy carefully with a pair of teary eyes, so aggrieved.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." Xiao Jingcheng sat down on the ground, crying loudly.

Xie Ning looked at him condescendingly. He seldom made Cheng'er cry, but he couldn't compromise on some principles.

The Zhou family absolutely does not allow spoiled and extravagant offspring, for Cheng'er's own future and for him to thank him for not waiting when he grows old, it would be bad if he can't control Cheng'er.

Brother Yu was distressed. Although he only wanted his sister at the beginning, his younger brother is also very cute.

Look at my brother crying, his face is dirty and red.

Brother Yu put down the bowls and chopsticks, ran to sit down in front of his brother, and put his arms around him, "Brother, you must eat well and you can't waste it."

"Who knows that Chinese food is hard." Brother Yu grabbed his sleeve and wiped his brother's face, learning to coax the child with adults, "Don't cry, don't cry, brother hugs."

Xiao Jingcheng was buried in his brother's arms, holding his little hand tightly on his hemline, crying, "Ha...ha...uu...ha..."

Brother Yu was holding his brother's little butt, let his little brother's short legs encircle his waist, sit on his lap, and kept coaxing: "Don't cry or cry, brother protect Cheng'er."

Xie Ning, the father, felt relieved when he saw the tears of the younger son, so it was impossible to stop the elder son from coaxing Cheng'er.

Seeing that Brother Yu is so friendly to the younger brother, I felt relieved and sighed when he thought of Cheng'er.

Sister Wan grabbed the small wooden spoon, ran up and down, hugged Daddy's calf, "Woo..."

Xie Ning lowered her head and went crazy, why did her daughter come to join in the fun? Really three brothers and sisters, dear ones.

Xiao Jingcheng cried like this, and fell asleep with his brother, and then Xie Ning took him back to the room.

While Cheng'er was sleeping, Xie Ning Baba ran to the stove to boil the three siblings with soy flour and mochi. By the way, Cheng'er's lunch was kept warm in the pot.

Prepare to wait for the baby to wake up, feed the meal, pay for it, play with it, and laugh.
