Chapter 1890 She is buying food

"I'm angry."

Brother Bai comforted Luobai's little head. Luobai seemed to be quite aggrieved and crawled his little head into Brother Bai'er's clothes.

"You can't say it's like a mouse, it's a fox."

"fox?"

The little tree blinked.

"But it looks like a mouse."

"How is it like?" Bai Ge'er pulled out the bait, and pulled off the hat on its head. Its small pointed mouth, pointed ears, white and soft fur, and a big fluffy tail. It was really a fox.

The little tree is very curious.

“It’s not the same as what I saw last night.”

"What, have you seen it?"

Brother Bai helped Luobai put on the hat. Bai grew fur and did not go out without clothes. He ate a lot and still didn't gain meat. Only his aunt could raise such a gold-swalking beast.

"I saw it last night, which was carried by a beautiful big sister, who also gave me a glowing bead."

"Big sister?"

Brother Bai turned his face and said, "You said a big sister gave you a glowing bead?"

"Well," Xiaoshu nodded, "It's a big sister, and it's it."

He stretched out his finger and pointed at the little white fox on the table.

"What does she look like?"

Bai Ke'er picked up the bailbai, then took a cup, poured some water into the cup, picked up the cup and fed the bailbai. The bailbai was still small, and it was just enough to get your head into the cup.

As for Xiaoshu, what does that big sister look like, Xiaoshubi doesn’t know how to describe it?

"The big sister is very beautiful."

"kindness."

Bai Ge'er knew that there was no ugly person in this mansion. The most beautiful person was his cousin, but the most special one was his aunt, because she was like taking the medicine for immortality, never getting old and not changing.

"The big sister speaks very well."

"kindness."

Brother Bai seemed to know who the big sister he mentioned was?

"The clothes on my elder sister are very beautiful, as if they will shine."

It is a silk-skinned brocade, which is also a new kind of clothing produced in the capital. It is very precious. I heard that a foot costs hundreds of taels of silver. If you make a piece of clothing, it may be thousands of taels.

Not everyone can afford such expensive clothing. In addition to silver, there is also craftsmanship, because this clothing is very light and thin, the general clothing making process may destroy the texture of the clothing.

The only one who can make clothes with this kind of clothing in the capital was his mother. Her grandmother no longer easily took needles and threads, she could only make clothes for her aunt. Perhaps only his aunt had these silk-twisted clothes in the capital. Others, but they did not have such great face, could invite his grandmother to make clothes.

"Young Master, do you know who that big sister is?"

Xiaoshu asked Bai Ge'er, "I want to thank her in person."

"He is my aunt."

The little tree “…”

This is a scam, it must be a scam.

Then he is obviously an elder sister, how could he be an aunt?

It's not a lie, he will know one day.

“What’s going on outside?”

Shen Qingci asked Bai Mei, although their mansion was not short of food, even if they didn't mention the food of Yipin, the amount of food stored in their mansion was enough for them to eat for a whole year. Moreover, there was a natural ice cellar in the mansion, and the ice cellar was filled with all kinds of meat that could be grown.

However, the more the situation in the capital is, the more food they have, they cannot feel at ease.

"A large number of refugees came in again, and there was no place to live outside. Today, the city gates were closed, and the capital could no longer accommodate too many people."

Bai Mei sighed and replied, in fact, just a month ago, there were too many refugees who flocked to the capital. Shen Qingrong's house could no longer be squeezed into it. If he fled, he could only find a place everywhere and act as his place to stay. The refugees who were blocked outside the city could only hold their old clothes and torn branches and barely build a small shed, and then they were ready.

The capital is really not that good now. It is under the feet of the emperor. However, as long as there are too many people, the city will still have a serious shortage of food compared to the ordinary territory.

“What’s wrong with Yipinxiang’s porridge shed?

Shen Qingci knew that this would be the case. There have been several influx of refugees in the capital, but not like now, even the city gates are closed. If people continue to be released in, it will really cause a revelation among refugees.

The capital is still like this, and I think it is the same outside. No one can survive, and no one can escape.

"Our porridge sanctuary has always been in it, and the shop is no longer doing business. There are people who come to queue up to drink porridge every morning. Even if the food goes on, the second and third sons are in the porridge sanctuary, and they are busy all the time since they are busy late."

“We have some food.”

Shen Qingci calculated the remaining grains in her hands, and the grains stored in her shops, and she only took some of them to the mansion. The rest were used to release grains, of course, in the name of the court.

Now, except for the batch sent before, there are still some food stored in the mansion. You should be able to take it out and keep them for food. Now is the most sad time of the year. After these days, you may get better.

"Take some of the food in the mansion."

"lady……"

"There is not much food in the mansion."

Bai Mei checked their food stocks, and there was not much.

"Nothing happens."

Shen Qingci picked up Xiao Luobai, "When it's really gone, your wife will go to the mountain to eat grass."

Bai Mei “…”

"By the way!" Bai Mei thought of something again, "Madam, I heard that the Duke of Wei's Mansion is collecting grain recently."

"Collection of grain?"

Shen Qingci frowned slightly. She is collecting food now?

What kind of food are collected now?

The outside grain shops are also closed, and it is very difficult to buy food, unless they are bought at a high price, and such a high price is not something that ordinary people can afford.

"It's collecting grain."

Bai Mei is certain, "Once my younger brother happened to see people from the Duke of Wei's mansion secretly collecting grain, but they still collected a lot of them. Later, he inquired from many sources. Lin Yunniang was buying black grain."

Just buying grain once, it cost more than a thousand taels. In the past, this thousand taels could buy a lot of grain.

"Madam, she probably didn't save the food," Bai Mei thought about it, and she could have thought that Lin Yunniang must have not heard those words at the beginning, and did not buy the food in advance. If she had bought it, with Lin Yunniang's current temperament, how could she still spend a high price to buy it?
