The flowering period works

Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Seven: How terrible a word &a

    

was in chaos, with loud noises echoing everywhere.Li Zhensheng came out of the house, holding a tightly sealed porcelain bottle in his hand. He called Jia Yi forward, "Jia Yi, our few merchant ships...Unable to comprehend, everyone departed with hearts full of questions.

The big gate closed, leaving only their own people in the courtyard. Jiayin ran out and hugged her second uncle, laughing and shouting, "Second Uncle, we're rich!"

Li Lao'er was also very happy.

Without mentioning the preparations he'd made over the past few days, let alone the sleepless nights he'd spent, he tossed and turned throughout the latter half of the night. As dawn approached, his mind raced with thoughts of how to treat his guests, how to speak to them, and how to manage the Wang family...

At this moment, everything had settled, he had achieved great success, yet he still felt a little dazed.

Li Lao'er bent down and hugged his little niece, and he also laughed along. "Yeah, we've really made it!"

Lao Li and Tao Hongying came out of the house. Lao Li scolded her son a few words, “You, what don't you tell your family When something happens, you just carry it yourself. What if you suffer a loss!”

Mr. Wen also chimed in, "Auntie, don't say it like that, I only found out about it when it happened!"

Li Lao'er admitted defeat and explained, "I was just guessing that Wang Zecheng would make a move. I didn't expect him to actually cause trouble."

“From now on, if something like this happens again, I will definitely tell my family and make sure we are fully prepared!”

He Ma stepped forward to interrupt, saying, "Old Madam, why don't you all come inside and have some jade melon We'll tidy up here quickly."

Everyone went inside to talk and eat melon. Grandma He led Shui Yun, Shui Ling, and the others to get busy.

Just keep two sets of seats and umbrellas, put everything else away. Wash the teacups and plates too, there's a lot to do.

After finishing her work, Old Lady Li had them cut a green jade melon and shared it with the four members of the Cao family and the guards to quench their thirst.

In the end, Li Erbao also gave out red envelopes. Six guards, the four members of the Cao family, and even He Mamu all received one each.

Especially the guards, who had been up all night and half a day, each received five ounces of heavy reward, happily returned to the Hou's mansion.

Li Laotai was still not at ease, and said to her son, "Second child, if the village melons can't be sold, we really have no choice. Why don't you invite Zhao Shushu and his friends over to help keep watch at night

"Wait until Lord Hou and the fourth return. Then we'll hire a few wounded or veteran soldiers to guard our home, and we won't have to worry about any troublemakers."

Li La Er also had this plan. Hearing his mother say so, he immediately agreed, "Okay, I was worried about this too, Mother, you've solved everything!"

"Then it's settled. Let Uncle Zhao and the others come over tonight... With the news spreading tomorrow, I'm afraid many will come to admire the flowers. I'll be staying here for a while, so Mother will have to take care of things back home."

"Don't worry, there are many people in the family, and we won't lack your help for anything." Li Laotai readily agreed, and then instructed her son, "Don't be stingy. Since you promised to donate food and medicine publicly, don't hold back. If people find out that you withheld a portion, your face will be lost."

Li Lao'er quickly assured, "Mother, rest assured, I will definitely keep my word and won't be greedy for these little things. Besides, the silver we received today is not small, enough to use!"

After chatting for a while, Jiayin pulled Erbo to the east garden.

Today's exhibition of flowers is just a small selection.

In fact, there are still a dozen or so famous flowers in the East Garden, and those few celestial lilies emerging from the ground are enough to accommodate the flower-viewers who will arrive later.

Jia Yin, having made up her mind, remembered to bring back a bag of nursery black soil after returning home.

If these flowers have any problems, the Cao family father and son can't solve them, just add some nursery soil, guaranteed to "soil" away the disease!

When Li Laotai saw that nothing was amiss at the Hundred Gardens, she began to worry about her pregnant granddaughter-in-law and took a car to Luoan Town.

Tao Hongying originally also intended to go, but at this moment she had to return to the village to ask Zhao Shu and others for help, so she brought her daughter to Xianke to have a look, then hurriedly hired a car back...

That night, Zhao Shu and Wei Shu arrived at the Baihuayuan. With these two fierce veterans joining them, Cao Lao Tou and his son were overjoyed.

As the guests who came to celebrate the opening of Baihuayuan left, the news that Baihuayuan held all the famous flowers in the world spread throughout Xindu.

Many people were drawn to the beautiful flowers, and their home was almost overwhelmed with visitors. Relatives and friends all wanted a glimpse of the magnificent blooms!

Especially the plant of golden lotus that Master Feng took back. On that day, the frail old mother miraculously sat up.

Not only can he eat and drink, but he can also chant scriptures daily, and his appearance has improved visibly.

Now, the news spread even more throughout Xindu. Everyone said that a Buddhist treasure had appeared in Baihuayuan!

The Feng family's grain, medicine, and doctors flowed like water to Baihuayuan, and Li Laer also didn't delay for a moment and sent them to the relief agency.

The Relief Office was located in a deserted military camp in the northern part of the city. It was large, with many buildings, but had not been repaired for many years.

...to the point where summer was drenched with rain, winter saw snowfall, and everywhere there was an abundance of weeds.

Before, only some beggars and widows lived here, the county government symbolically sent some old grains every year.

Occasionally, during festivals, some wealthy households would kindly send over some food.

But with the move of the capital, this place was suddenly flooded with too many elderly people, children, and disabled individuals who had lost their support systems.

The houses remain unrepaired, and the monthly food rations, only a few hundred kilograms, are barely enough to sustain everyone. There is not even enough for medical treatment and medicine for the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled.

Those still able to move would go onto the streets to beg for things or scavenge leftover food from restaurants, just to survive.

But the elderly, the sick, or the young who could not leave the relief office could only wait to die. They wept day and night, their plight was truly pitiful.

The head of the relief agency was a lowly seventh-rank official. Though not a cruel man, and possessing a measure of compassion, his power was simply insufficient. Even if he emptied his entire treasury, he couldn't possibly support so many mouths!

Besides, he has to support his family, his parents and wife and children...

In just two short years, half of the staff at the Relief Agency have been lost. Even the officials in charge have gone gray with worry.

Fortunately, today, he finally saw the light of day, he saw a savior!

Seeing that Li Lao Er had brought so many vehicles here, with food, medicine, and even a doctor!

He questioned repeatedly, confirming that it was a donation to the relief agency, and then excitedly knelt down and wept.

"Mister Li, you are truly a living god who saves people from suffering! We waited for so long, thinking we had been forgotten by Tianwu, and finally, hope has arrived!"

Li Lao'er could tell this was a rare official who was earnest and responsible. He didn't want him to say something inappropriate out of excitement and be overheard by someone with ulterior motives, causing trouble for him.

So, he quickly helped the official up and comforted him with a few words.

By this time, all the food and medicine had been moved into the courtyard one by one.

But things were simply too numerous, and the need to avoid rain and dampness meant that after searching every dilapidated shack in the relief office, no suitable place could be found for them.

Under duress, Li Er quickly instructed Zheng Feng and Zheng He to hire carpenters and laborers. After spending most of the day, they hastily repaired three houses.

And in the large kitchen courtyard, a fire was lit and a thick porridge of rice was being cooked...pe you won't find it objectionable!""Not objectionable, not objectionable!" Old Lady Li beamed and took the box 。She took out the handkerchief and examined it carefully. The crimson silk was embroider...
