"Father, have you told Mr. Wu?”
"Not yet. Let's talk about it tomorrow. Cai Xia, today the emperor said that he will let you and the princess help settle the refugees. Why do I feel uneasy? The princess's pampered golden branches and jade leaves can't have any mistakes. Why would you involve them?”The general asked Yunxia.
"I didn't want to either, but I knew that it wasn't good for father to ask the emperor, so I could only take the opportunity to ask the emperor. Who knew that both of them would want to go. I think father should be at ease. The emperor might not be at ease either. He will definitely send people to protect the princess. They might give up halfway. I don't believe they can endure the hardship.”Red Cloud Sect didn't think much of it, thinking that it was very simple.
"That's true, the emperor is more worried than me. As for you, you won't give up halfway, right?”the general asked his daughter with a smile.
Early the next morning, Red Cloud got up and prepared. She had already discussed with the general, Yun Fei, and the others. Today, she would first transfer some people from the residence to prepare food. He would first boil some porridge and send it out of the city to feed the refugees.
"Xi 'er, find me a set of your clothes.”Yunxia ordered Xier.
"Miss, what do you want my clothes for?”Yun Xia felt a bit strange.
"Of course, you can't ask me to go find refugees in fancy clothes. Go, hurry up!"
" Oh, but Miss, my clothes, you…" Xi 'er wanted to say how she could give her clothes to Miss to wear, but she was interrupted by Miss.
"Aiya, why are you so long-winded today? Hurry up! If I say it can be worn, then it can be worn. What else are you worried about? I'll give you a new set tomorrow.”Yun Xia urged Xi 'er anxiously.
"New? Oh right, I haven't worn the new clothes that Miss gave me for the New Year yet.”Xi 'er suddenly remembered the new clothes and hurriedly went to rummage through her small suitcase.
"Nanny, don't go. Stay at home. She could help take care of Madam and also help them make more porridge. Nanny, what do you think?" Yun Xia looked at Mother Wu in the mirror and asked. Mother Wu was combing her hair.
"Miss Xing, you have to be careful when you go out with them.”Aunt Wu smiled.
"Don't worry. Other than Senior Brother, there's also Chunlan, Xi 'er, Xu Xiaohui, and the others.”Yun Xia comforted Nanny. She knew that Nanny really cared about her.
"Miss, what do you think of this set? There were even shoes and socks. It was you who gave it to me, Miss." Xi 'er brought a new set of clothes to the young miss. It turned out that Red Cloud had given everyone in the Phoenix Cabinet a set of clothes for the new year, including Chunlan, Xu Xiaohui, and Yunfei.
"Got it, Xi 'er. Don't worry. I'll give you a new set.”Yun Xia couldn't help but laugh, she just wanted to tease this little girl.
" Miss, you know that's not what I meant..." Xi 'er said as she put the clothes away and picked up a coat to pass to Miss.
"Then what do you mean? Forget it if you can't bear it, I don't want Miss anymore.”Yun Xia said in a serious manner, her hands already taking the clothes and putting them on.
"Miss, you're really…Aiya! No!" Xi 'er had been paying attention to what the young lady had said. She had not seen the young lady's expression of holding back her laughter, nor had she noticed that the young lady had already begun to put on her clothes. She was afraid that Miss would misunderstand her meaning, so she stomped her feet anxiously.
"Haha, haha, Xi 'er, you're too funny. Why are you so serious today? I'm just teasing you! Hey, aren't you usually a smart guy? Xi 'er!" Yun Xia finally couldn't help but laugh loudly, saying that she had already put on her clothes.
"Didn't Miss never take clothes from me before? I'm just worried that they don't fit!”Xi 'er explained unwillingly. Usually, very few people could tease her.
"Miss, put on this sweater vest. It was very cold outside, and she couldn't wear too little.”Aunt Wu found a pure white wool vest. The rosy clouds felt especially soft and comfortable in his hand. She thought,"This must be real fur. I wonder what kind of fur it is."
"Young Lady, this is a pure white fox that Old Master personally hunted. Your mother personally sewed two singlets. When Madam left, she wore one and left the other for Miss.”Nanny knew that Miss did not remember the past, so she explained it to Miss.
"This vest must be very warm.”Yun Xia thought about it and told Nanny with a smile. Actually, she was thinking about her own mother. She thought about the Spring Festival. Although her mother did not have such good clothes for her, she would definitely give her a new set of clothes. In the past, her mother would make a new set of clothes for the three sisters every year for the New Year, and she would also make a new pair of cloth shoes for each of them.
"Miss, you look really good in red with a white singlet. Aunty Wu, don't you think so?" Xi 'er looked at the young miss wearing her clothes. She was even more excited and happy than when she was wearing new clothes.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense! Let's go and see them." Yun Xia said as she walked out first.
"Miss, don't you want breakfast?" Xi 'er reminded him from behind.
"That's right. I can't possibly snatch the porridge that was given out, right? You still have to eat first." Yun Xia smiled and shook her head.
After breakfast, Yun Fei and the other two were already waiting for Yun Xia at the gate. Hence, the group of five headed towards the outskirts of the south gate because the refugees were all gathered outside the city. As everyone knew, local officials always reported to the imperial court that their jurisdiction was rich and the people lived and worked in peace. The reason for this result was either to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial, to hide it without reporting. The other was to drive away the refugees and make some iconic places, such as the downtown areas of towns and big cities, appear to be singing and dancing. Of course, under the feet of the emperor, the officials of the capital were even more desperate to chase away the refugees in the downtown area. That was why the Emperor was kept in the dark and knew nothing. Otherwise, why would they wait until now to settle the refugees?
Everyone walked on the streets and saw that the streets were filled with traffic and people. All kinds of snacks filled the street with an alluring fragrance; Colorful silk and satin decorated the lives of the rich; The shops were also full of customers. Even the usually deserted tea stall business was bustling with people. The festive atmosphere of the new year was everywhere. When they passed by some small streets, it seemed deserted. From time to time, there would be some people waiting by the roadside for charity. They were all shabbily dressed, their faces yellow and emaciated, looking as if they would not be able to survive the Spring Festival.
"Senior Brother, take out all the money we brought out and buy some food for them. What do you think?" Yun Xia asked for Yun Fei's opinion.
"Alright, everyone take out your money and buy some food for them! These people looked really pitiful.”Yun Fei called out to everyone.
Yun Xia saw a pair of siblings. They were half-kneeling and half-sitting by the roadside. "Sister, I'm hungry. I'm also very cold. What should I do?”The skinny boy raised his head and whispered to his equally skinny sister, but he also knew that his sister was powerless.
"Little brother, don't be anxious. Maybe we'll meet a kind-hearted person later. He'll bring us delicious food. Be good. If you're tired, lean on your sister.”The sister, who was also hungry and weak, had no choice but to coax her little brother. Yun Xia stood not far away, moved to tears.
