Chapter 324

After leaving Su Cheng, Ouyang Kang would send Nianfu out first and then call Zixiao. However, Nianfu felt it was troublesome, "Stop this, I'll wait for you in front."

Ouyang Kang smiled and walked away first. Nianfu walked out. Suddenly someone came to pay her respects.

"I wish you a happy new year to the princess and a long life."

Nian Fu was stunned for a moment before recognizing the person in front of him, "Bai Xuan?"

Bai Xuan smiled a little embarrassedly, "Empress Lao is worried about it, he is the young one."

He has changed a lot. In the past, Nianfu only felt that he was a greasy face, not like a servant, but now he is dark and thin, and he has a bit of the shadow of his honest father.

It seems that after leaving Ouyang Kang, his life was not very good. But why did the old lady bring him?

Nianfu smiled faintly, "Is your family good? I heard that you have married a wife and went to Beijing?"

Bai Xuan shook his head, "She had a body before leaving, so she didn't come here, so I went to Beijing for my family. My parents and my wife stayed in their hometown to see the house."

Nianfu nodded, not wanting to say much to him. He glanced at the side and immediately followed her maid to give her red envelopes.

But Bai Xuan did not go to answer, saying, "The princess is willing to ask the little one to come to pay his respects, and he is still patient and talks to the little one, so there is no need to give a reward."

He turned around and left after he said that, very respectful and honest. When Ouyang Kang came over and went out together, Nianfu couldn't help asking. Ouyang Kang said, "I heard that he ran to the old lady before leaving. On the way to Beijing, he had a lot of effort. The old lady said that I asked me to keep the person. If I could reform, it would be best. I wouldn't take it to my side anyway."

Nianfu thinks about it, so he has to give people a chance to regret and reform himself. Anyway, he is not around, so he is not afraid of him causing trouble.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ouyang Kang told her another story, "Lan Gu is about to get married. Why don't you give her something too? Either you want to give it to her or give her a decent person."

Huh? Nianfu really didn't know about this. After hearing what happened, she didn't agree with the Mi family's marriage after hearing what happened, but she couldn't help it. "Forget it, everyone's path is chosen by themselves. Maybe she may not be able to live well. When I go back, I send someone to give her a gift, which is what she had taken care of for me on Shangjing Road."

When Ouyang Kang smiled, he knew that his family was still kind-hearted.

When I came to Baoguang Temple, it is not the same now. Master Huiyin, the abbot of the temple, came to receive it personally. Ouyang Kang lit an oil lamp for his mother and second uncle. Nianfu also asked about the gilding of the Buddha and incense burner here. After estimating how much gold, how many craftsmen and labor are needed, he asked about the sweet potatoes.

Mr. Huiyin heard her describe the appearance of sweet potatoes, but sighed, "We did plant that thing in the back mountain before, but unfortunately it was destroyed by a fire in the war and was gone."

Ah? Nianfu asked with a glimmer of hope. "Didn't it be preserved at all?"

Master Huiyin shook his head, "That thing is so well-raised. If it weren't for the roots, how could it not have grown in the past few years?"

Nianfu felt extremely disappointed. Ouyang Kang thought about it but said, "I dare to ask Master, who planted the sweet potatoes?"

If she could find that grower, she might have one in her hometown.

Ke Hui's expression became a little subtle because she said after a while, "You follow me."

Nianfu and Ouyang Kang looked at each other and followed Master Huiyin for no reason.

There is a vegetable garden on the back mountain of Baoguang Temple. It is now in the middle of winter. The vegetable garden is covered with a thick layer of white snow. Of course, it is not produced. Following the vegetable garden further west, there is a pagoda.

The towers are not high, some are only one foot wide, two or three floors high, and they stand there in a desolate and quiet place, even if they are close to each other, they also feel a sense of loneliness that is indescribable.

Nianfu knew that this was the place where Buddhist disciples buried their bones, and the ashes were worshipped in the pagoda.

As he walked in, he brought them to a small seven-story tower that was inconspicuous. Master Huiyin gave a gift first and said, "The one here is Master Leyuan. The sweet potato you are looking for was brought out of the palace. There are also the vegetable field next to it, and many of them were the seeds she brought before. Unfortunately, many of them have been damaged. Only five or six out of ten can be saved at the moment."

In the palace? Who is this master?

Master Huiyin looked at them again and said softly, "She is Empress Meng of the previous dynasty. However, there is no ashes in it, only her former relics. Although Empress Meng passed away with us, her corpse will still be sent to the royal cemetery. Even we have no way to know where they are buried. If we ask where these seeds come from, we will not know even more."

After coming out of Baoguang Temple, Nianfu and Ouyang Kang didn't say anything, and their hearts were heavy.

I heard that Empress Meng is a good queen, but no matter how good a woman is, she will end up very miserable when she marrys an uncontrollable emperor. She has no harvest and can't even find anything she can plant.

Nianfu collapsed his shoulders, both sad for the unmasked Queen Meng and worried about the next thing. She promised the emperor's cousin to find food for the victims, but what should I do if I can't find sweet potatoes now?

From afar, a pair of eyes watched her leave, full of resentment.

Suddenly, someone next to him laughed, "What are you looking at? If you look at the fake ones, you can't become real. Without that life, you don't have that life. Even if you are praised to the sky, you will have to fall down sooner or later!"

Ryan gritted his teeth and walked away with a blue face.

She hated the girl who took everything from her. If she hadn't been her, she would have been the arrogant county lord. How could she have been insulted like this?

Seeing that Nianfu was unhappy, Ouyang Kang gave her an idea, "If you want to inquire about farming, you naturally have to go to the old farmer to get married. Why don't we go to Beijing City and ask the victims there?"

This is feasible. But Nianfu looked at his dress and pointed at Liu'er beside him, "Change with me."

Liu'er dared not, "If I want to wear the princess' clothes, it will be a death sentence. If the princess wants to disguise herself, I will buy you a set."

Nianfu was a little helpless, but he had to agree.

However, today is the second day of the first lunar month. I haven't seen the ready-to-wear shop nearby for a long time. Liu'er ran to a house and gave her two taels of silver to buy a clean old clothes. Nianfu didn't dislike it. He quickly changed into the carriage, got off the carriage, walked with Ouyang Kang, and walked into the crowd with Ouyang Kang.

Now that Gao Xian has come back, he is under the jurisdiction of the government here. But it is much more decent. Although it is not as good as Nianfu, because there are more elderly, weak, sick and disabled people gather here, the government not only gives away porridge, but also gives away more small steamed buns.

Seeing the victims in an orderly manner, Nianfu also felt relieved, and then he saw a bunch of old farmers gathered there to ask for advice. Suddenly someone shouted behind his back, "Sister who buys shrimps!"

Uh... Nianfu turned his head, but saw a young man who had just lined up to receive porridge and steamed buns. He looked at her with a look of surprise, "Sister, have you forgotten? In summer, you took a sick young man to the capital. I met a few of us on the way, and we bought some fish and shrimps. Later, my mother and I came to deliver you vegetables and eggs."

Oh, Nianfu suddenly remembered, "I remember you have a little brother, I sold me a basket, right?"

"Then your name is Yunsheng?" Ouyang Kang happened to be sorting out his travel notes these days and suddenly remembered his name.

Yes! Nian Fu Wang Yunsheng asked with concern, "Why are you here to Beijing? Did you suffer a disaster? Are your family well? Is your little brother's house good?"

When she heard her ask, Yun Sheng felt a little sad, "Gen'er's house was crushed in the heavy snow. Everyone took a day to dig out him and his mother."

Then the rest of the people were gone? Nianfu felt a deep heart, but Yunsheng said loudly again, "When the weather gets better, it will get better. My mother said, stay with the green mountains, and don't worry about the lack of firewood. Wait for me, I will send the porridge to my mother and ask Gen'er to talk to you. Since something happened at home, he has not been very talkative anymore. Are you willing to talk to him?"

Ouyang Kang said, "Where are your family? How many people are there?"

He happened to see a restaurant not far away, with a large steamer selling buns and steamed buns in front of the door.

Yun Sheng was stunned and Nian Fu said, "We have no other intentions, we just buy you some food."

Yun Sheng hesitated for a while, but refused, "No need, we have the government's is enough to survive."

This was even more heartbreaking. Nianfu said, "We are acquaintances after all. At the moment, my family has not suffered any disaster. How could you not care about the acquaintances? Okay, let alone, I will buy two hundred buns. Is it enough to share?"

"Enough is enough! One person is enough, about fifty or sixty."

But Nianfu and the others still bought two hundred buns, but the store was run by Boss Wei. The guy recognized the two of them, but was stunned when he saw them coming. After Ouyang Kang gave him a wink, he realized that he gave the buns and collected the money. He quickly went into the house to report to Boss Wei.

Ouyang Kang and Nianfu carried buns and went to his territory with Yunsheng. They saw thirty or forty people gathered there, all from their village.

Yun Sheng stepped forward first and rushed to the old man excitedly, "Village Chief, this is my sister and young master I used to know. I'm here to deliver buns to us! Gen'er, come here quickly, this sister also asked you who bought a basket, come and have a look!"

Seeing that the group of people turned their eyes, Nianfu was a little embarrassed and smiled kindly and handed the buns on it, "Just a little care, don't be polite, everyone, please share them. If it's not enough, we'll buy them."

But the village chief didn't say anything, and even if the whole village stared at the bun, the eyes were almost ignited, but no one moved.

The village chief carefully tidied his clothes and bowed to the two of them, "Thank you for your righteousness, but you are not rewarded for your merits. Why are you so embarrassed to accept so many buns for you? If you bought them and haven't touched them before, please return them quickly."

He saw that Nianfu and Ouyang Kang were not well-dressed, so he refused. But Nianfu had already opened the cage on the basket, "Don't be polite! In such a cold day, the buns will be cold in a while. Hurry up and eat them while they are hot. We have something to ask for advice."
