Chapter 300: Three little boys also want to contribute
When she learned that Yun Qiao was busy with the flood in Jiangcheng, she joined in.
If you have medicinal herbs, get them; if you have food, get food. If you don’t have any, spend money to buy them and make sure they are fully prepared.
Several little guys in the marquis' mansion also took out their New Year's money from their purses. They also wanted to save the people of Jiangcheng.
Yun Qiao didn't know what these little guys were thinking. She went out with Maidong to buy medicinal herbs. They were busy until it was almost dark and then came back.
When I came back, I saw a lot of things on the table in her room.
There was the New Year's money that she and Chen Jingyan gave to the children every year, as well as some small gold and silver gadgets. Chao Chao and Mu Mu even took out the jade pendants engraved with their names.
Upon learning that her mother had returned, Chao Chao Mu Mu, who was taking care of her younger sister in the backyard, immediately ran towards her mother's room.
Chen Yang ran over without knowing the reason.
"Mother, you're back."
"Chao Chao, Mu Mu, did you two bring these things?"
Chen Yang, who was panting heavily because his brothers were running so fast and almost couldn't catch up, also raised his hand and said, "Aunt, there's mine too."
"Yangyang also took things. I saw that he even took your gold locket. Those were things your aunt bought for you. Are you willing to give them all away?"
Chen Yang suddenly felt a little reluctant.
"B-but my brothers all took things, and it would look awkward if I didn't."
Yun Qiao laughed and reached out to rub Chen Yang's head.
"We have already collected donations and purchased a lot of supplies for the flood in Jiangcheng, and the imperial court has also opened warehouses to ship grain to Jiangcheng, so you don't need to use your own money."
"Put it all away. Save this money for later use."
"Aunt, what is a wife's capital?" Chen Yang asked without understanding.
Before Yun Qiao could say anything, Chao Chao said thoughtfully, "Could it be money to support my mother? 'Po' means old woman, isn't old woman my mother?"
Yun Qiao was stunned when she heard Chaochao's explanation.
"Perhaps you are right."
"No matter if you raise them, you have to keep them for yourself. A man cannot be without money. Otherwise, what will you do if you want to buy something for your wife or mother in the future without money?"
"Come, take all your things. I know what you mean."
Mumu said, "But, mother, we didn't do anything."
"Who said that? I need to make some noodles and ship them to Jiangcheng soon. Can you guys help me?"
Make noodles?
Several children became interested.
The flour had already been delivered, but Yun Qiao wanted to make something else to improve the food for the people in Jiangcheng. So she thought of making noodles, drying them, and then sending them to Jiangcheng.
These things are not for a large number of people, they are mainly distributed to children.
Especially some young children.
Yun Qiao did what he said and called people to set up a small noodle workshop and started making noodles overnight.
Chaochao and Mumu were busy with Chen Yang and had a lot of fun.
Since there is no school these days, Yun Qiao asked for leave for them. Letting the children participate in these meaningful things is also a special kind of education.
Upon learning that Yunqiao was doing these things, Empress Dowager Zhang also came to take a look and even used her own money to ask Yunqiao to do more.
Yun Qiao originally didn't want to pay much attention to Empress Dowager Zhang, but seeing that she came this time, it seemed that she had other things to do.
"Huayang, you have done a great job as an aunt. I thank you on behalf of the emperor."
"I really didn't expect that you could work so hard with General Chen to deal with the flood in Jiangcheng. It would be great if you had a daughter. We could get married."
Yunqiao has a daughter, but she is too young.
How old is the emperor? He is already eighteen or nineteen.
The age difference is too big.
Besides, even if she had a daughter, Yun Qiao might not let the child marry the emperor. Marriage between close relatives is not in line with genetics.
"Your Majesty, has something happened to you?"
"When the late emperor was still alive, he arranged a fiancée for the emperor, who was still the crown prince. Now that I see the Wang family's power growing, I'm a little reluctant..."
Yun Qiao also guessed it.
Empress Dowager Zhang even thought about getting rid of the Wang family.
"You don't have to rush about this. The Emperor is too young. Even if he gets married, there's no need to rush to appoint a queen. Besides, the late Emperor passed away less than three years ago. Jiangcheng is flooded now, and the Emperor is busy with government affairs. It's normal that he has no interest in the romance of the harem."
"Besides, you should always find a few girls with good family backgrounds for the emperor."
"In this harem, the Wang family is the only woman with a good family background, but she is the most arrogant."
