Chapter 102

Before he was injured and lost contact with his subordinates, he temporarily stayed with Bai Susu, and the first thing to guard against was the third prince, preventing him from making any irreversible actions.

Later, he made people watch the third prince's subordinates to prevent him from killing those common people again.But he ignored the officials below and asked them to collect food in private.

Originally, after the catastrophe, these peasant households were struggling and lived on surplus food. If there was no such surplus food, would they be allowed to starve to death?
The more Zhou Ximing thought about it, the more angry he became, his eyes were extremely sharp. After returning home, he must investigate this matter carefully, and those who should be suspended will be suspended, and those who should be dismissed will be directly dismissed.

Bai Susu followed Zhou Ximing, looked at his serious face, and suddenly laughed, "There's no rush for this matter, let's investigate it slowly."

Hearing Bai Susu's words, Zhou Ximing's eyes were full of surprise, he looked at the calm Bai Susu, "You don't feel angry?"

"Angry." Bai Susu replied, "But such things are unavoidable, so we can only take our time."

Zhou Ximing's understanding of Bai Susu has risen to another level.In the past, he only thought that the girl in front of him was very sensible and knew how to deal with farmers, but now he felt that she lived a very transparent life.

"If these parents and officials at the bottom are really thoroughly investigated, what do you think will be the final result?" Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, and suddenly wanted to know her opinion.

"When the water is clear, there will be no fish. The only thing that can't be exhausted is to kill chickens to scare monkeys." Bai Susu looked at the few thick clouds floating over from the clear sky and covered the sun, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he spoke sharply. Zhuan, "Besides, it's not up to me, a commoner, to comment on such a matter."

Zhou Ximing smiled, but didn't say anything further.He looked at the bag of plant ash in his hand, "Scatter this thing directly in the soil?"

"Well, sprinkle it on, deeply turn over the soil in the field twice, then dry it in the sun for two or three days, and then sprinkle it again, depending on the recovery of the soil."

Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing returned to the original piece of land, and all the broken branches and leaves inside had been picked out, forming a haystack beside them.

"Give these things to me." Bai Susu brought the bag of plant ash, held it in one hand, grabbed some ash from it with the other hand, and sprinkled it on the ground.

When the whole land was covered with ash, Bai Susu slowly walked back from the other side of the ground with the little ash left.

"Turn over the land and mix the plant ash and soil evenly." Bai Susu picked up the hoe that was on the side, and wiped the fine sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

Zhou Ximing grabbed her wrist, looked at the guards standing aside, "Pick up the hoe and dig the ground."

"Yes!" The guards responded immediately, picked up the hoe lying on the side, and went to the field to start digging.

Bai Susu saw that they were just hoeing the top layer of soil, and walked over with the hoe to correct their mistakes, "It's too shallow for you to plow the ground like this, it needs to be as deep as half an arm."

After the guard heard this, he began to dig down with the hoe in his hand, following Bai Susu's instructions.

Someone helped to do such heavy work, Bai Susu was much more relaxed than before, all he had to do was watch them plow the fields and check the progress from time to time.

She stood beside Zhou Ximing, looking at the refurbished land, "Fortunately, you brought more people, otherwise I'm afraid it will take a long time to finish these things."

"I brought so many people just to prevent you from dragging me to work." Zhou Ximing turned to look at her with a smile in his voice.

The work with Bai Susu in that field before was still vivid in his memory, and he was sure that Bai Susu would have a lot of things to do when he came over, so he specially brought some more people so that she could send her around.

"Don't worry, you won't be asked to work in the field in the future." Bai Susu went to the field, knelt down and grabbed a handful of soil to see if the plant ash had been evenly mixed with the soil.

When the guards put away their hoes, Bai Susu looked at the almost brand-new land and nodded with satisfaction.Clapping the soil stained in his hands, he turned his head to look at Zhou Ximing.

"Let's go, everything is done, let's come back after three or four days."

"Okay." Zhou Ximing left here with her, and returned to the other courtyard.

It has been three or four hours since they left, and the sky has become dark.Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing separated, crossed the middle road, and walked towards the temporary courtyard.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the yard, Bai Susu heard the cry of a child, his face changed, and he hurriedly walked in. Seeing the scene in the yard, Bai Susu became angry instantly.

Bai Jingyun's small body held Bai Jingshan in his arms, coaxing him helplessly.

She stepped forward, hugged the crying Bai Jingshan, wiped away his tears, and coaxed him softly, "Don't cry, don't cry."

Seeing Bai Susu's return, Bai Jingyun regained his backbone, "Sister, brother hasn't eaten since you left, can you find something to feed him."

"Okay." Bai Susu went in with Bai Jingshan in her arms. While hugging him, she picked up a bowl of crispy cheese and fed him small mouthfuls.

After feeding the bowl of crispy cheese and Bai Jingshan stopped crying, she filled another bowl and handed it to Bai Jingyun, "Did you not eat too?"

Bai Jingyun ate up the bowl of crispy cheese before nodding, "After you and big brother left, someone took away those two mothers-in-law who were watching us, and they never came back."

"Then it's just the two of you in this yard?"

"En." Bai Jingyun nodded, "This place is too big, I don't dare to run around, so I can only hug my brother and wait for you in the yard."

After Bai Susu heard this, there was a look of coldness in his eyes.She had only left for a long time, and the two little guys in front of her had suffered such hardships.

Zhou Ximing turned back and felt the oppressive atmosphere in the room, and asked for no reason: "What's the matter?"

"You should ask what's wrong with your subordinates." Bai Susu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and looked up at him, "Why did they let my two younger brothers stay in the yard, why don't they Feed them?"

Zhou Ximing realized that something was wrong, he turned around and looked at A Ying who was following, "Where are the two women I sent here?"

"My subordinates will investigate now." A Ying turned around to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Bai Susu looked at the yard, "Is there a kitchen here?"

"Yes, I'll take you there." Zhou Ximing held Bai Jingshan in his arms and led Bai Susu there.

There is already a kitchen in this yard, and after coming out from here, it is just a turn around.
