Sometimes she thought about how great it would be if she couldn't hear the sound of rain after waking up. But it was a pity that she heard the rain all night, and when she woke up the next day, she still heard it clearly. I heard the sound of rain outside.

She sat up, and Lao Bai ran over, jumped up on the collapse, ran to her hand and squatted down, also letting the owner touch it.

Shen Qingci touched its little head, and then asked Bai Mei to fetch water and wash it.

"You will go to Eldest Sister later and ask if there is enough food in the Eldest Sister's Mansion, and also ask them to prepare more food." The food in Prince Shuo's Mansion is enough, but if this year's harvest is really not good, it is better to harvest more. Food can be eaten by the whole family and can also be used to help the poor people.

After all, by then, Prince Jun's Mansion would not be able to get food from her. If this was known to others, it would inevitably be criticized.

Bai Mei remembered it, and when she finished serving her master, she would go there in person, that is...

"Madam, do we also need to notify the Duke of Wei?"

This notifies one family. If the other family fails to notify them, it will show that their wife is not generous enough, and if they run out of food, they will come to their door in the same way.

"You should also inform me."

Shen Qingci hugged Lao Bai and wiped his little paws, but Nian Nian still fell asleep in the nest. She walked over and touched Nian Nian's back. She thought he was sick, but Nian Nian just fell asleep. He was still snoring.

She put the brand down and prepared to go to the incense room to make some more spices. It was raining heavily outside and she couldn't do anything. She just hoped that the rain would stop soon and give the people a glimmer of hope. ,

But the gray sky outside also made her feel that this was really not very relaxing. Even the spices she made seemed to be dull and less bright.

The sound of rain outside can still be heard in my ears, and it has been raining for more than three days.

As for Bai Mei, she didn't delay. She rushed to Prince Jun's Mansion in person and told Shen Qingrong exactly what Shen Qingci said. When Shen Qingrong heard this, she couldn't help but feel nervous. , even a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

She quickly asked Yu Wenxu and his son to come over, also talking about food.

"Mom, what my aunt said is not unreasonable," Yu Wenjin also felt that the rain was not good. When he returned home, he also heard what the people around him said, fearing that this year's business would be very bad. , and the food harvest may be more serious than they imagined.

Especially if there is no supply of new food, the entire Zhou Dynasty may also be in food shortage. Although there are pickles, pickles are not food. Some of them are not easy to starve to death. But if there is really a shortage of food, how much will it cost? I'm afraid the pickled vegetables are not enough to eat.

And they don’t store grain in the house. If they don’t have grain, they can just go to the rice shop to buy it. Anyway, they have money in the house, and they can buy the best rice and noodles. Most of the grain collected by several villages in the house are also It was exchanged for silver.
