Xiao Jing helped Yuan Chuyi sit down next to him, and the two of them chatted with He Yutang and his family.

He Yutang was grateful both inside and out for the information about the possible drought on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, which allowed their entire government to prepare in advance. Several counties under the government dug ponds to store water, dug wells to prepare water, and improved people's livelihood. Only then can we continue to be stable. Unlike neighboring prefectures, by the time they realized the drought was coming, the soil in the ground had already hardened, and people couldn't dig wells because the soil was too hard. Now many people have fled because of lack of water.

"Dad, those people fleeing the famine won't come to our city!" He Wenhao asked worriedly.

"Our state capital is already in such a drought, who would be stupid enough to flee here!" He Yutang is not worried that refugees will flock here, "I'm just afraid that disaster victims in the counties under our state capital will cause chaos!"

"You still have to work hard, Sir, to urge the county magistrates to do disaster relief." Xiao Jing said.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this is a matter within the lower official position." He Yutang replied respectfully to Yuan Chuyi, "Madam, your more than 100 acres of corn have been harvested well, so please don't sell it as grain. I think If possible, our government will buy it as grain seed so that it can be planted throughout the state next year."

"Of course you can." Yuanchu agreed. Isn't this the original intention of planting corn in the first place?

He Yutang was shocked after reading Yuan Mochen's policy statement. Thinking that if the entire dynasty no longer worries about food, why worry about the people not being rich and the country not being strong. So he praised Yuan Mochen again.

Yuan Mochen lowered his head in shame after hearing this.

He Wenhao bumped him with his elbow and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan, why should I be ashamed? My father has never praised me!"

"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good!" Xiao Jing took the policy paper presented by Mr. He and read it before saying to Yuan Mochen, "Since your sister has given you the opportunity, you should cherish it. If the exam can be held in autumn this year, , you can come down and give it a try!"

Yuan Mochen looked up at Xiao Jing and He Yutang in shock. He was shocked. Did they confirm the article they wrote?

He was surprised and happy, and said "yes" respectfully, thinking that he would go back and read a book after dinner.

Li Qiaozhen, who was sitting at another table with Yunxuan Yunduo and Shishiliu, saw that Yuan Mochen was chatting and laughing with Xiao Jing and the magistrate, and she suddenly felt a sense of inferiority in her heart. At the same time, she also became more aware of the first day of the Yuan Dynasty. Why should she learn to read?

After a sumptuous dinner, He Yutang took his family back to Fucheng overnight. Xiao Jing asked Xuan Ying and Xuan Xing to escort them back.

At this time, the village chief Zhang Yongfu's home was at home.

It's dinner time now, and their family is eating around the table. Their family had stored some grain before, but they did not dare to eat rice for every meal. They only cooked porridge. Tonight, they even had rice dumplings from the first cent of the Yuan Dynasty for dinner.

"Mom, what did Sister Chuyi ask you to put in the rice dumplings? Besides meat, what else is this? Why is it so delicious?" Zhang Xiujuan asked happily while eating the rice dumplings.

She let Yuan Chuyi talk to her all day, and she didn't make a single rice dumpling. But when she came back, Yuan Chuyi brought her two more portions.

"She said it was mung beans and chestnuts!" Wang Guifen said, sighing, "In this current situation, only her family can afford to eat meat and make such delicious meat rice dumplings."

"She is a good planner and prepared a lot of food early!" Zhang Yongfu said.

"Village chief, village chief, it's not good, it's not good!"

Suddenly there was a rush of knocks and calls outside the door. Zhang Yongfu hurriedly got up and opened the door, and saw Wang Jiagui appearing at the door in a state of embarrassment.

"My brother, they are trapped in the back mountain!" Wang Jiagui pointed at the back mountain and said.

"Didn't I say I won't go into the mountains today? I'm celebrating the festival at home, why are you disobedient!" Zhang Yongfu scolded.

A few days ago, the villagers in the village were all worried about their livelihood, so they made an appointment to go hunting together in the mountains. The women went into the mountains to find wild vegetables. On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, they were worried that they would go into the mountains by themselves. Every time they went into the mountains, they asked Xuan Xing or Xuan Bing followed.

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. Everyone has said that they will not go into the mountains today, but Wang Jiagui and the others think that today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and they want to go into the mountains to hunt some pheasants and bring back extra meals for the family, so five or six people made an appointment to go into the mountains together. Try your luck, but unexpectedly encounter a pack of wolves.

Without saying a word, Zhang Yongfu didn't even bother to eat. He immediately asked his son to get a hatchet together, and went out to summon other villagers to go into the mountain.

"Dad, go to the village and ask the prince for help. You guys are just fooling around and you may not be able to handle the wolves!" Wang Guifen chased after him and said.

"Yes, yes," other villagers also said.

At this time, Xiao Jingzheng and Yuan Chuyi were sitting in the hall, competing with each other on the newly sewn clothes. He felt that the clothes were too small and even his arms looked cramped.

He looked at Yuan Chu's huge belly, and the two children were commotion inside.

"Will they be this big when they are born?" he asked in disbelief.

Yuan Chuyi rolled her eyes at him, "I thought so!" She was pregnant with twins. She didn't take a lot of food like fish, meat, bird's nest or shark's fin on weekdays, and always maintained a reasonable diet. In this era, there were no caesarean sections. She was worried that if the baby was too big, it would not be born and three lives would be lost.

Xiao Jing reached out and gently placed his hand on Yuan Chuyi's belly, feeling the child's tossing inside. Seeing Yuan Chuyi frowning in pain, he also frowned, "Why are they so naughty!"

"Yeah, I don't know whose temper I took over!" Yuan Chuyi looked at him and said leisurely.

Xuan Yue came in. Seeing such a warm scene between the two of them, he couldn't bear to disturb them, but Xiao Jing was already looking at him, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and report:

"Sir, the village chief is here, saying that some villagers encountered wolves and were trapped in the mountains!"

Xiao Jing frowned slightly and asked Xuan Yue to call Lou Xingyun and the others, and ask the six of them to go into the mountains with the village chief and the others to rescue people.

After Lou Xingyun and the others left, Yuanchu's eyes jumped and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

All the strong men in the village have gone into the mountains. Xuanying Xuanxing has not returned from sending Mr. He back to Fucheng. In the whole village, only Xuanfeng and Xuanbing are patrolling the village. What if a gangster comes into the village at this time? Is good.

She told Xiao Jing her worries.

"Don't worry too much, I'm still here!" Xiao Jing said, patting her head, "Don't worry!"

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, I wanted to feel relieved, but at Haishi, the people who entered the mountain had not returned yet, and there were sounds of fighting outside. Sure enough, gangsters had entered the village.

This group of gangsters had been setting foot in nearby villages for many days. Knowing that Xishan Village was now the village with the best life nearby, and that there was a wealthy family like Yuan Chuyi here, they had targeted them early. It's just that there are people patrolling the village every night, but they didn't expect that there were only two people tonight. They felt that the opportunity had finally come, and the group immediately sneaked into the village.
