After listening to his daughter's thoughts, An Li understood.
After returning to the front hall, she asked the servants to bring out a thick stack of portraits of unengaged men in the capital.
It was originally prepared for Ling'er, and now it came in handy, so she flipped through it one by one.
Finally found it!
An Li pointed at the handsome man in the portrait and said, "Madam Li, what do you think of Gu Shiyun?"
"My family has been teaching for generations. I don't have a father or a mother anymore. The most important thing is that I don't have to worry about being wronged by my mother-in-law!"
"I passed the examination this year and I'm a good-looking man, but I'm unlucky and was blocked by a villain."
"What does Madam Li think of this man?"
She looked at the young man and thought he was good.
Mrs. Li took the portrait and looked at it carefully. She read the description on it and found that the family was from an honest and upright family.
If Wen Xi is willing, it is not impossible.
If I marry him then, I can help him out.
Madam Li became more and more satisfied as she looked at it. She smiled and said, "Madam Ming, it's really thanks to you. I'll tell my daughter about it when I get back."
It's not good to be always bothered by that family.
If I’m not careful and ruin my daughter’s reputation, it will be too late to say anything!
[Aunt Li, don't worry, my eyes are my ruler!]
[The young lady will surely live a happy and fulfilling life!]
Mingxin munched on some dried meat, mumbling to herself.
"Xinbao, do you also think this person is reliable?" Mrs. Li asked when she saw Mingxin's serious expression.
"Auntie...Auntie..."
Unable to speak clearly, Ming Xin nodded again.
After getting the confirmation, Mrs. Li returned home happily.
"You, don't run around outside now that the snow has melted, or your ears will freeze off." An Li pinched his daughter's nose with a smile.
It’s not cold when it snows, it’s the coldest when the snow melts!
"Liang qin~" Mingxin acted coquettishly in a baby voice, saying that she would not go out to play if she did not want to.
As the servants put the portraits away, An Li suddenly remembered something and asked, "It's snowing these past few days and the weather is cold. Can we distribute porridge and winter clothes on time?"
Chunliu thought about it, his face turned pale, and he shook his head.
"Madam, it has snowed for three days, so there has been no alms..."
It’s so cold, many people will freeze to death!
"Madam, please don't worry. I will send someone to prepare it right away."
Chunliu looked at his wife's worried expression and immediately stood up and went downstairs.
An Li rubbed her eyebrows. She had been lazy these days and had forgotten about this matter.
After getting ready, Chunliu came over and said, "Madam, it's ready. Shall we go over now?"
An Li waved his hand and decided to go and see for himself.
[Mother, Xinbao wants to go too.]
"Liangqin...Liangqin..." Mingxin grabbed her mother's fingers and lay in her arms, acting coquettishly.
Hearing these two calls of "Mom" made An Li feel warm in his heart, so he took them along.
West of the city, Charity Hall.
There were many thinly dressed beggars and poor people who were too poor to buy thick clothes sitting at the door.
The sun was rising at this time, shining on the charity hall, and they all gathered together to keep each other warm.
Not far from them, many people who had frozen to death were wrapped in straw mats.
It's extremely dazzling to look at!
It was obvious that the ministers' residences were not far from the charity hall, but no one donated money.
The rich are feasting and drinking, while the poor are freezing to death on the streets!
An Li got off the carriage under the protection of the guards.
The servants at the back carried more than a dozen buckets of porridge off the carriage, and also brought out thick, clean winter clothes.
When the beggars and poor people saw this, they all stood up.
"Don't rush, everyone has one, go line up."
The servant shouted with great experience.
Then ceramic bowls were placed on the table, and some people were responsible for making porridge while others were responsible for distributing winter clothes.
An Li watched from the side and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that his two sons could return safely to Yongjing City.
Looking at the carriage again, I saw a corner of the side curtain was lifted, and a cat-like head poked out!
The little girl looks very cute, with a small bun on her head.
"Young lady, Madam has instructed us not to go out today as it's cold."
Chunliu brought the young lady over and covered the curtain.
“Ah…Ah…”
[I want to save those poor people!]
Mingxin babbled, somewhat reluctantly, and quickly recited a spell.
Let those wandering souls who died but are still wandering in the same place go to the underworld to be reincarnated.
Ming Xin was a little unhappy and took out a few handfuls of small potatoes from the cloth bag and threw them into the brazier.
No matter how unhappy she is, she will be happy as long as she has snacks to eat!
After a while, the potatoes in the brazier emitted a rich aroma.
"elder sister……"
She crawled to Chunliu and asked Chunliu to help her get the potatoes out.
"Miss, Chunliu is not worthy of it. I will help you pick it out right away." Chunliu covered her mouth and smiled.
The little lady is really smart. Last time when she was eating popcorn, she threw it into the brazier.
This time, the young lady remembered it!
Chunliu picked up the tongs, picked out the potatoes, placed them on clean wax paper, and peeled off the burnt skin.
"hey-hey……"
Ming Xin chuckled and took out another oil paper bag from the cloth bag. When she opened it, she found that it was filled with chili oil powder!
Chunliu was shocked!
Where did the young lady get all these things?
How can you eat so much!
She looked at the fragrant roasted potatoes and felt a little hungry.
"Time...fast time..."
Mingxin took a roasted potato with her little hand and put it in Chunliu's hand.
Then he picked up another one, dipped it in chili oil, and put it into his mouth with his little fleshy hands and started chewing it.
The potatoes are floury and the seasoning is spicy and fragrant!
If you ask Mingxin where she learned this way of eating, it was probably from a book called "Food Collection" that she read a few days ago.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
