Chapter 187 Disaster Five
A few days have passed, and more and more refugees in Kaicheng are coming. The city walls and other things collapsed due to earthquakes. The government's obstruction is a joke. The refugees still keep entering the city. It has been raining for several consecutive days. These refugees can only find some remaining supplies in the ruins to build some simple residences. The refugees who cannot find supplies simply slept in the ruins, under the low walls, and can also block the rain.
Lao Li was sent out by Chen Xiuping to inquire about the situation. Because of the refugees, Chen Xiuping always felt a sense of crisis. He always felt something was wrong. Lao Li hurriedly ran back in a straw raincoat.
"Son-in-law, there are more and more refugees outside. The magistrate asked the city guards to set up cards at the collapsed city walls, and the people in the city were not allowed to go out casually. I just looked outside at the checkpoint. There was a lot of people, and they were clamoring to let the government release food. The atmosphere was very tense."
After hearing this, Suninger sighed, her eyes full of sympathy. Suninger was originally a soft-hearted person, and she led the way for many disaster relief.
"The war in the north has just ended. So many refugees want to go home. There is a large port outside Kaicheng. Coupled with the earthquake, there are naturally many refugees outside. "
"The issue of refugees is indeed a big problem. A few days ago, the magistrate came over to ask me about the subsequent disaster relief plan. In half a month, it will be time to harvest. There is not much grain in the granary, and there are not enough people in the city to eat. How can the refugees outside manage it? But it is so strange that all the refugees gathered in Kaicheng. The grain reserves in several nearby cities are more than Kaicheng, and there is too big a problem here."
Listening to the sound of raindrops constantly hitting the shed, Chen Xiuping felt very strange. This strange feeling made Chen Xiuping feel that he had to take some measures. Yier on the side replied: "Young master, everything will be installed tomorrow. If it goes well, we will be able to set off back to Jianghuai City the day after tomorrow."
"I hope everything goes well."
......
At night, in this small shed, the faint light of candles illuminated the surroundings. After taking a shower, Suninger hugged Chen Xiuping's waist and looked at the simplicity around him, but his heart was very stable. Seeing Chen Xiuping standing and thinking about something, he asked.
"What are you thinking about?"
Chen Xiuping stroked Suning'er's arm holding his waist and felt the rare calm. This quietness was a bit like the tranquility before the storm came, and said, "I didn't think about anything, I was just thinking about the matter of Jianghuai City. Madam, why don't we bring He Yunchan's sisters with me too. It wouldn't be a big deal for the two sisters to stay in Kaicheng."
After Chen Xiuping said this, the strength in Suninger's hand increased slightly. Chen Xiuping felt the change in Suninger's mood from this move. After waiting for a while, Suninger finally spoke: "Okay, I'll listen to you, you are the biggest leader of the Su family now, how dare you not refuse to obey?"
Suninger soothed the awkward atmosphere through this playful tone, turned around and lay on the bed, sighed and said, "Yesterday, Yue'er wrote a letter. Their group is already arranging the return of Jianghuai City. When the time comes, our family will be reunited again."
Su Yue'er did not follow their group to evacuate Jianghuai City, and had already evacuated the rear of Kangzhou with her children and scholars. Now that the war ahead is over, she will naturally go back. For this sister-in-law, Chen Xiuping's final image was that she was sitting on a stool in the flower tea shop and was untied by Suning'er. After that, she had never seen her, because she had not heard Su Tianqi's words and got married, so she had been under house arrest.
