She has several Yipinxiang stores and several spare granaries. It can be said that the food she stores every year can feed tens of thousands of troops for a long time.

Bai Mei's lips moved up and down for a long time, but there were some words that she didn't know how to ask before she could ask them.

"lady."

"Well," is Shen Qingci listening?

"Do you think there will really be a food shortage this week?"

Shen Qingci raised his face and looked at the dull rain curtain outside.

"Whether there is a food shortage or not depends on how long it will rain. If it rains today and it will be sunny tomorrow, there may be a glimmer of hope. But if it rains like this for a month, there is a high probability that it will be like this. ”

And Bai Mei's heart couldn't help but sink, just like the sky at this time, which was so gray and depressed.

The rain was still falling, and it seemed that it didn't want to stop.

Every time they thought the rain had lightened up and it might clear up, it turned out that not long after, it started to rain heavily again. This kind of rain started from the first day and has been raining for five days now. It's time.

Shen Qingci leaned against the door and looked at the rain curtain outside. In fact, she already felt that her guess was correct. This year's harvest might be ruined.

I don’t know how much grain the eldest sister has collected, and in order to avoid suspicion, she has never left the door of Prince Shuo’s Mansion. Of course, she has no contact with the eldest sister for the time being.

However, she believed that the eldest sister would definitely have received a lot of food by now.

After all, Prince Jun's Mansion is not like other families. They have their own methods to do it without anyone noticing, and they can also do it without anyone noticing when it comes to collecting food.

Therefore, she has never been worried about her eldest sister. On the contrary, she was really worried about Duke Wei's mansion, just because she didn't trust Lin Yunniang.

However, Lin Yunniang has read a lot of books. Even if Lin Shangshu teaches such a failure to his daughter, there are some things that are a matter of life and death.

She should be able to feel it, even Bai Mei has thought of it. She doesn't believe that Lin Yunniang's brain is simpler than Bai Mei's?

In other words, Shangshu Lin gave birth to her, but he did not give her a good head.

She let out a soft breath, feeling a little restless under the rain, especially when she thought of the famine that might follow.

Dazhou has experienced several famine years, and many people have died. Even now, she still remembers that they finally had such a peaceful and prosperous age, and she really doesn't want to be a dead person anymore.

"Chiji..."

A little white fox ran over and barked at Shen Qingci.

Shen Qingci knelt down and picked it up.

"It's so white that it has grown a bit."

Shen Qingci weighed the weight of Lao Bai. It was indeed much heavier than when he came back from Xiangjue Temple, and the color of his coat was also much better.
