“I’m fine. I’m dressed warmly, much better than those people in the south of the city. Let me go, I’m worried that they might be reluctant to leave their newly sprouted wheat. I believe my persuasion would be more effective.”
This idea sounded reasonable.
"Alright, I'll have the official guards ensure your safety," Magistrate Qian agreed, then instructed the accompanying guards to protect Wei Ruo carefully.
Wei Ruo was someone even the Seventh Prince valued highly, and County Head Magistrate Qian couldn't afford to have anything happen to her under his watch.
Upon arriving in the southern part of the city by carriage, Advisor Chen instructed Wei Ruo to stay in the carriage while he went to persuade the residents to evacuate.
Wei Ruo didn't listen and got off the carriage, put on the same raincoat as the others, and rushed to people's homes.
"Advisor, please focus on evacuating everyone. We need to move quickly. It will be even more difficult after dark, and I'm worried that it will rain heavily tonight and the temperature will drop again.”
After listening to Wei Ruo's words, the advisor dared not delay and quickly led the officers to take action.
In the south of the city, aside from the main roads, all the small paths had only recently been cleared and were now extremely muddy due to the rain.
When Wei Ruo walked into the first household, it was a house built with bamboo. The room was very simple, and on the left side of the door was a bed made of bamboo.
The only part of the room that had been reinforced and had no leaks was the roof above the bed. Other places were leaking, the rain was dripping.
Inside the house, a grandfather, grandmother, and a child huddled together, curled up on the bed, wrapped in a thin, hard cotton quilt. The two elders shielded the child in the middle.
At this moment, Wei Ruo regretted arriving too late. She wished she had come when the rain first started two days ago.
At the beginning of the rain, Wei Ruo hadn't known that it would be so heavy and cause so many problems.
However, based on the memories of the original owner, Wei Ruo only knew that winter had arrived early this year and there had been a rain, and she did not know how the poor people had spent the year.
The original owner had been too busy arguing with her family at the time and didn't go outside, so she hadn't paid much attention to the rain and didn't know these details.
Wei Ruo asked the three people to go with her, "Everyone, please come with us. The County Head Magistrate has arranged a temporary shelter for you."
The old man shook his head, “No, we just planted our crops. I have to keep an eye on them. What if the rain floods the seedlings?”
“Don’t worry,” Wei Ruo said, “even if these seedlings are flooded, I can get you a new batch to plant.”
"It will be too late to plant later. We missed the timing." said the old man.
“Don’t worry about that. I will find late-sowing wheat seeds for you and will also help you improve your planting methods to ensure they grow well!” Wei Ruo assured the old man.
The old man looked at Wei Ruo and hesitated a little.
Wei Ruo continued, “Don’t you trust my abilities? You’ve seen the rice that grew from your field, haven’t you? It was planted later than others, but it produced more than other fields, didn’t it?”
“You should come with us now. Even if you don’t think about yourself, you need to think about your wife and your young grandson. If they suffer from the cold and hardship, what’s the point of having a good harvest?”
Wei Ruo's persuasion worked.
The old man quickly got off the bed, pulling his wife with one hand and carrying his grandson with the other.
They put on the straw sandals on the ground. The ground was full of rainwater, and their feet were directly soaked in cold water.
After handing the family over to the officers, they hurried on to the next house.
