Chapter 742: The Columbarium

éng died without ever knowing he wasn't a true member of the Yè family bloodline, and his father was also unaware 。They even considered themselves a disgrace to the Ye family because they lacked spir...The medicine wine was separated, but Ye Chulian couldn't bear to brew it again. 。Because medicinal wine also requires herbs, and there is a shortage of herbs right now, it's better to keep them for treating illnesses and saving lives. They cannot be used for brewing alcohol anymore. 。Ye Qingmei stood at the door, watching the snowflakes outside flying more and more wildly. The sight made her heart ache even more. 。Although the court has not officially declared a lockdown, in reality, Lin'an is already under a state of siege. 。Everyone stays indoors, and no one from outside comes here. 。If the wind and snow just last for a few days, it's fine. But if it keeps snowing like this, the consequences will be unimaginable. 。"

Ye Chulian was also startled, “Will it snow continuously There's never been such heavy snowfall even in winter” 。" Night Qingmei shook her head, “I don’t know, but I hope it won’t rain continuously! Right now, Ayan and the Emperor are not in the capital, so I haven’t felt at ease.” 。"Chu Lian, what's wrong with us I've never been this worried before. What's going on now"

Ye Chu Lian: “Maybe it’s because for the past six months or so, I’ve relied on Fourth Sister too much. Maybe it’s just a matter of habit! I’m afraid it’s not just you and me who are used to it, even the Emperor in the palace is used to it.” 。Yesterday, didn't the second sister go to the palace After returning, the Emperor went to the foot of Yanhuashan again and muttered for almost an hour, enduring the wind and snow. He was muttering about this weather and wondering why it snowed like this. 。Even though he knew the Divine Lord of Yanhua Mountain was not at home, he was still willing to go there. 。Besides muttering about the Emperor God, he also muttered about the Fourth Sister. The Second Sister went along with him too. After listening for a while, she said to him, "Normally in this kind of situation, one should go to pray to gods and Buddhas. Why did you come here" What do you think the Emperor thought In his heart, he believed that both the Emperor God and the Fourth Sister were more influential than gods and Buddhas. 。

Look, the Emperor has relied on them to this extent. What about us By the way, did Big Brother go to the Imperial Academy today”

Ye Qingmei nodded, “I went, not a single day missed.”

Mother was worried and even sent my second brother to accompany him. 。Although the roads outside are difficult to travel, in order to make it convenient for officials to go to court, the snow in Lin'an City has always been cleared by people. Don't worry about it. 。She was doing something while looking outside, and the courtyard of the Dong mansion was always busy clearing snow. Both the rough servants and their maidservants by their side were participating, and even when they were free, they would lend a hand. 。There's no way, the snow is too heavy and keeps falling. If I don't clear it soon, I won't be able to walk. 。Although everyone tries their best to avoid going out as much as possible, it's impossible to truly stay indoors. People still need to eat and drink, and families still need to go out. 。 But the General's Mansion hasn't been visited these past two days, only my second brother has gone to take a look occasionally. The servants are still orderly, tidying up when they should, and staying inside their rooms when they shouldn't. Please rest assured 。They had nothing to worry about. The old people in the General's Mansion had mostly been replaced. Those who had served the Second Mistress and those who had served Ye Lianmiao were all given some silver and sent away, their contracts even returned to the government. Even the people in their several courtyards had been dismissed, and new ones brought in. 。Nightwen told him that before leaving, he had left a batch of pills. They were said to be able to make people forget some things. 。All the servants who left the General's Mansion had to take the pill under their noses. After swallowing it, they drank a large bowl of water to make sure it went down their throats. 。Then I asked them about the affairs of General’s Mansion, and they couldn't remember anything! It worked surprisingly well! Nowadays, in addition to some loyal old servants, both General’s Mansion and Dongzhai are filled with new people. 。 。There are also some people who haven't signed death contracts, they only signed official employment agreements recognized by the government. They are women from the outer city who voluntarily came to Dongzhai to work, helping with their wine and incense business. 。Ye Chu Lian said, “In a moment, I’ll go to the kitchen and see how long our rice, flour, meat, and vegetables will last. Now that there are so many people in the mansion, even though business is no longer doing well, it wouldn't be good to immediately send everyone back to the outer city.” 。The contracts are still in place, so we have to pay them and support them. 。Besides, it's freezing cold here. If they go back, they'll just starve with their families. At least our storehouse has more supplies than the outside world, and we can hold out for a while longer. 。"At this point, the more people we can get, the better!"

Ye Qingmei nodded. "I agree. We can't drive everyone away at a time like this. If we do that, no one will want to come back next time." 。Go ahead. I also need to calculate how many scented candles are left in the inner city that have been paid for but not delivered. Let's speed things up these few days and finish those ordered by the ladies first. 。"

Ye Chu Lian walked around, checking the kitchen, storeroom and even the vegetable cellar dug by the manor. After returning, she happily told Ye Qing Mei: "Our manor's supplies are really quite a lot. We have enough grain to last for a year at least, and we also stored a good amount of meat." >>> 。It's just right to be cold. The meat won't spoil if it's left out, but the vegetables are hard to store. The colder it gets, the worse the vegetables keep, and many of them get frozen and can't be eaten. 。Fortunately, during the hot weather people dried several batches of vegetables. Originally, they were meant to improve our palates, but now we're relying on them even more. 。In short, don't worry, older sister. Unless it snows for a whole year, there won't be any hunger in the house. 。" Night Qingmei relaxed, and hurriedly instructed Luo to help Ye Chulian make another batch of incense. 。The shop can't open, but many people among the wealthy and powerful families are still willing to buy. They can still sell within their circle. 。But once all the raw materials on hand are sold, when this batch of inventory runs out, even the inner city will run out of goods. 。As the two were talking, someone came to report from outside, that Sixth Prince had arrived again and wanted to see the Second Sister. 。Ye Qingmei listened and felt somewhat agitated, she waved her hand to let Ye Chulian handle it, and turned to go into the house, no longer wanting to care about this matter. 。These days, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince comes often, almost every day. Whether Night Qing Tong is there or not, he comes to check in. 。Actually, it's nothing special. I just bring some food and necessities for Ye Qing Tong, and sometimes I also find some novelties for her. 。But Ye Qing Tong usually wouldn't give him a good look, and there were even times she whipped him. 。nd.
