Chapter 210 A small number of lives for the lives of the majority

Xie Yi was going to ask his second brother what happened yesterday when he was away.

"What's wrong?" Tu Xiaoxiao saw that Xie Yi hadn't said anything, so she pushed his arm and asked.

"Oh, it's okay. I can't accompany you today. Go to the teahouse and listen to the book by yourself.

I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Xie Yi stood up, patted his butt and left.

Tu Xiaoxiao whispered: "I didn't ask you to accompany me in the first place.

And Sister Yue Ning would never be interested in the Xie family's wealth.

She was born in the Divine Doctor Valley..."

Seeing that the person had disappeared, Tu Xiaoxiao got up from the ground and patted her buttocks like Xie Yi.

Xian Ge opened the door and walked out, "Miss Tu, where do you want to go today?

Wu Langjun can't leave, so Madam asked me to accompany you."

Tu Xiaoxiao smiled and thanked Li Yuening for her thoughtfulness, and then said: "Senior Brother Wei and Senior Brother Yuwen are leaving Jinling today.

I want to see you off.”

There were not many people she knew here, and after a few left, only the people from Xie Mansion were left.

"Okay, I think it's going to rain, I'll go find an umbrella and take it with me."

Tu Xiaoxiao looked at the sun hanging high in the sky and said suspiciously, "There is still the sun."

Xian Ge laughed and said, "You don't know, the weather in Jinling is changeable, it often rains when the sun is out.

We call it a sun shower, and it comes in waves and passes quickly."

Tu Xiaoxiao had never seen such a thing before. Senior brother was right. She should get more experience. Even a maid had more knowledge than her.

the other side

When Xie Yi returned, he saw his parents and two brothers having breakfast. Without saying a word, he sat down and picked up a steamed bun with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"Why didn't you call me for dinner?"

"What? Your third brother and his wife didn't invite you to have dinner?" Xie Fan said in a gloomy way.

Xie Yi paused chewing and said with a smile: "I didn't go looking for them.

I'm going to tell Tu Xiaoxiao that I can't accompany her out of the house today."

After a pause, Xie Yi said, "Second brother, I noticed that you have a lot of complaints about Third Brother and Sister-in-law.

You were not like this before. Now that Third Sister-in-law is in charge of the household, you see, even the meals are much richer.

What else are you dissatisfied with?"

Xie Yi simply went straight to the point without beating around the bush.

"How can I be the head of the Xie family if my name is not right and my words are not reasonable?

It's not like my Xie family is deserted. "After Xie Fan knew that Xie Shi was not his uncle Xie An's son,

She felt very disgusted with him and didn't want to give him the same face and kindness as before.

"What do you mean?" Xie Shi retorted while holding half a flower roll in his mouth: "What do you mean by not having the right name and not having the right words?

Although the third sister-in-law did not have a grand ceremony when she entered the house, after Grandpa nodded, she passed the government office and the bright road.

It's the serious Third Lady of the Xie Mansion, Second Brother, you are too kind."

Xie Fan put down his chopsticks heavily, "Humph, your third brother, he is not of the Xie family bloodline at all.

Since he is not a member of the Xie family, then Li Yuening is naturally not a wife of the Xie family.

Why do you think she can be the head of the Xie family?"

Xie Yi rolled his eyes, almost choking, and coughed a few times. Lu quickly stroked his back and said unhappily, "Your second brother is right.

Shige'er is not your uncle's biological child. I felt that Lady Luan was not a good person and was very shrewd.

It's just that the eldest sister-in-law is only trying to win over your uncle's heart, but she doesn't understand.

I never thought that Lady Luan would dare to cheat on your uncle. What a pity for Shige'er."

"Mom, how did you know?" Xie Yi really didn't expect that his third brother had such an identity.

Then he was treated coldly by his uncle since he was a child. Was it because his uncle knew long ago that he was not his biological son?

The third brother is so pitiful.

"My uncle said it himself. Anyway, the power to run the family should not be in the hands of outsiders like them.

Otherwise, if the Xie family changes hands, how can we face our ancestors and our grandfather who just passed away? "Xie Fan knew that the fifth and third brothers were close,

He couldn't accept it at first, but it was the fact. As the eldest grandson, he had to shoulder the burden of the Xie family.

"Don't worry, even if they hand over the head of the family's private seal and stay in the Xie family honestly in the future,

My Xie family will not let them go short of food and clothing." Xie Fan said in a condescending tone.

Xie Yi, "Brother, you are going too far.

What was it like at home when grandpa was seriously ill?

What kind of life are we living in? Need I tell you?

Now, my third brother and his wife are responsible for everything.

We still live our little lives, what's wrong with that?

Besides, we will go north in a few days.

Discuss things as they happen,

Second brother, can you really do these things better than Third Sister-in-law?"

Xie Fan was stunned for a moment, and then he heard Xie Yi say, "You also said that they are not members of the Xie family.

One day, they will really throw up their hands and return all the mess to you as you wish.

"Second brother, can you take it?"

Seeing that Xie Fan was listening carefully, Xie Yi said slowly, "Why not wait a little longer? It won't be too late to bring it up after you settle down in the northwest."

In this way, the second brother will be able to better understand the abilities of the third brother and his wife, and I believe that there will be some changes by then.

Xie Hang secretly gave Xie Yi a thumbs up.

Xie Yi was proud.

Lu's eyes rolled and she agreed, "Second Brother, I think what Fifth Brother said makes some sense.

I heard from your uncle that many people in the countryside were afraid of dying on the way due to lack of food and clothing.

I guess those days must be very difficult, and now is not a good time to take over.

When we are settled in the northwest, I will go with you to find the third son’s wife and talk to her.”

Just as Xie Yi was about to speak, Xie Hang stepped on his foot, signaling him not to interrupt.

Xie Yi pursed his lips.

Seeing his mother said so, Xie Fan said, "Then let's observe first."

Seeing that the matter was settled, Xie Yi ate with peace of mind. He accidentally burped so much that he was full, and was scolded by Lu as a fool.

Li Yuening and Xie Shi, who were resting in the space, had no idea that the usually lively Xie Yi had temporarily solved a big problem for them.

"Xie Shi, I have an idea." Li Yuening said to Xie Shi while looking at a wheat field that was about to mature.

Xie Shi, who was processing a fox skin, looked up at her and asked, "What?"

"I looked at the map and found that I had to go through 10 states to get to the northwest.

If a food base is stored in each territory,

Is it possible to provide relief to the migrating people?

Let them have less hunger and arrive safely in the northwest?" This is the most effective way Li Yuening can think of.

Xie Shi shook his head, "No, the migration is an order from the court.

If these disaster relief bases appear along the way, how can we hide it from the local authorities?

Not only will it fail to save the people, but it will also become a tool for local officials to make money, which is inappropriate."

Li Yuening, "So many people died, can't the people in the court see it? Don't they care?

Isn't the purpose of migration to increase the population of the frontier? Now so many people have died before we even set off.

The court has done nothing?"

Xie Shi wiped his bloody hands and stood up. "I've thought about this, too.

Even if the imperial court wanted to control every citizen, it couldn't.

They can only exchange a small number of lives for the majority of lives.

The small part is the old and the young,

In this way, there will be enough young laborers, and the migration effect can be achieved.

It will only take 5-10 years for a new group of people to fill the gap.

Although it is cruel, it is the most effective, don’t you think? "
