Chapter 97

Ji Jiu continued walking towards Aunt Qiao's house. She saw that the other Kang family were also here, so Ji Jiu immediately told them about the village. Butler Kang found out about the situation and inquired about the situation, but Ji Jiu, who hurried back and told Brother Wenting to go out and buy medicine and ginger, didn't know either. She only said that Aunt He was sick before anyone else, so she was afraid that other villagers would be more sick than Aunt He.

 Aunt Qiao told Ji Jiu to calm down first. She would prepare ginger ale in a pot and deliver it to the villagers. Aunt Li and Butler Kang nodded that they would help Aunt Qiao as well.

 Ji Jiu entrusted this task to Aunt Qiao and Aunt Li. As for other matters, she had everyone put them on hold for now. The important thing now is to survey the damage to the villagers' houses and help them as much as possible. Everyone quickly dispersed to work. Ji Jiu also hurriedly walked out of the house again. This time, she had Kang Jie and Kang Jin stay to help Uncle Kang, while Ji Baohu and Ji Zhaogu went to look for the village headman with her in the village. Their work must be put on hold for now.

 Ji Jiu walked around looking for villagers but couldn't find any. So she walked to another intersection where she knew there were quite a few houses. Then she saw a group of many villagers and could only cry. Ji Jiu saw this and was upset. She hurriedly walked towards the old man who was also looking sad.

"What happened, Uncle?" Ji Jiu hurriedly asked impatiently.

"Wow, last night the snow suddenly fell so heavily that the roof fell on Zheng Bao's parents, Ji Jiu. Now they don't have money to take people to the doctor so they can only cry. I don't know how to help either. Even though I told them I would pay for the treatment first, the two elders didn't want their children to be in debt, so they refused to go. They are thinking of dying so as not to be a burden to their children and grandchildren. I have persuaded them for a long time and it has not worked."

"Then can I try it, Uncle?" Ji Jiu took pity on the aunts and uncles who were crying, not knowing what to do in front of them, so she decided that she would try it first.

"Let's go, Ji Jiu. In case they show some respect for you and agree to go get treatment. I'm afraid that the longer I wait, The symptoms will be more difficult to treat."

"Yes, Uncle."

 Ji Jiu asked permission for the couple to enter the inner room where their father and mother were sleeping. She called out before opening the door to talk to them. Less than one kilogram Ji Jiu came out and told Ji Baohu to immediately bring a carriage here to take people to the doctors in the district. The village headman wondered how Ji Jiu could do it in such a short time. They had been persuading for half a day but to no avail. She really did it again.

"I didn't say much, Uncle. I'm just threatening them if they don't treat me. I won't let their children and grandchildren make soap again."

"Ha ha, this one." The village chief laughed at Ji Jiu's idea. What parent would want their children to suffer? She really picked up on those two elders' weaknesses well.

 Once the matter was resolved, Ji Jiu hurriedly inquired about the damage to the people in the village with the village headman.

"Wow, there are many houses whose roofs can't support the weight of the heavy snow. Some houses were nearly destroyed. Residents are now clearing snow and surveying the damage. I'm afraid it will snow again tonight. Tomorrow, there will definitely be more people injured."

"Um, is this a good idea or not? Let them check first whether it is habitable or not. If it doesn't seem safe, Uncle, please let them move to the basement of my house. You know how spacious and warm that place is. As for food, you don't have to worry either. I'll send someone to buy more supplies for the people in the village until the winter is over."

"Will it be good, Ji Jiu? The villagers probably don't want to burden you to such an extent. In fact, we should be able to survive just by repairing the roof."

"Uncle, If something unexpected like this happens again? And if someone dies, what will you do? Isn't it better to take precautions first? As I told you before winter, I feel like this time will be more severe than in past years. Even though it's only been winter, it's not even a month yet. This kind of thing has already happened, and the normal winter still has two to three months left."

 The headman listened to Ji Jiu's words and thought that she was right. He felt the same bad as she did so he prepared well. But these villagers did not have enough money to repair the house. They only bought supplies and prepared them.

"Then I'll talk to the villagers first, Ji Jiu. If I find out anything, I'll hurry and tell you at home. You yourself will prepare a place to live in the cellar for them first. As for provisions, let them take what you bought with them. You won't have to buy much more."

"Okay, Uncle. I leave the matter with you."

 Ji Jiu asked to go back and tell the people at home to prepare for the evacuation of the villagers first. They should have brought the mattress with them. If not, she would have had someone go out and buy it later. Ji Jiu didn't think that her basement would have any reason to be used a second time. Luckily, she did. in advance

 Ji Jiu walked home with Ji Zhaogu. She also ordered him to prepare well to receive the villagers. If there's anything missing, tell Uncle Kang. He would write it down before going to buy things in the district later. or if there is not enough in the district Then travel into the province and buy as much as you can. Don't worry about money. Just getting the stuff is enough.

 Ji Zhao Gu nodded and answered Ji Jiu. He listened carefully to what she said. His young lady is really thoughtful. She doesn't look like a 14 year old girl. Even a little general

 Ji Jiu immediately went to Aunt Qiao's house to talk to Uncle Kang. She told him everything she saw just now. and told him to go to her house to get the money and prepare to survey what needed to be bought, including

She also had him prepare some clothes. In case there was not enough supplies in the district, they would have to travel far to buy them in the provincial town. Butler Kang received Ji Jiu's orders and arranged for Kang Jie to go with him. As for Kang Jin, he would stay and help Ji Zhao Gu take care of the people. home here Do not allow chaos in the house.

 Ji Jiu finished giving orders and walked slowly into her room. This time she prepared a bill of exchange for Butler Kang worth two thousand taels. After all, buying a lot is better than not having enough. She expected that this winter would last no less than four months. The supplies she had now were indeed sufficient. However, if there were villagers with him, it would only last for two months at most. Ji Jiu had to have Nang Guan's men buy as many supplies as possible before shortages would occur in the next few months.
