In mid-June, the Rescue and Shelter Center was completed, and Zhifu Ji was specially invited to cut the ribbon.

After the ribbon-cutting, Shen Wan also took Zhifu Ji and the people who were curious about the shelter center to visit the shelter center.

The prefect Ji and the common people saw that there was everything in it, and they all agreed after visiting. During the visit, the common people also asked what kind of people could enter the rescue and shelter center.

The Rescue and Shelter Center has recruited 20 employees alone, including men and women, and more than half of them are skilled craftsmen. "Women who have been abandoned by their husbands and have nowhere to go, and have no way to survive outside, can also go to our rescue and shelter center for help. Our shelter center will provide them with housing and teach them how to earn money to support themselves in the world.

A skill..." Guanshi Yu introduced to everyone standing in front of the building where women and children live. This is a woman in her thirties who is gentle and dignified, literate, and was abandoned by her husband's family because she was barren. Brother also dislikes her, if it were another woman, she would not be able to live, but she is a tough

, set up a portal outside.

Because he is quite talented in literacy and hyphenation, he even opened a private school for girls.

But because of her status as an abandoned wife, no one is willing to send their children to her private school for girls, so she teaches the neighbors' children to read and write for free.

Relying on the dowry, she barely survived for a few years, but this year she couldn't make it any longer, and the county lord built an academy that recruited female students for free, so she closed the private school.

Out of admiration for Shen Wan, the head of the county, she heard that the rescue and shelter center where the county is majoring in is looking for a caring and empathetic female steward who can take care of the affairs of the shelter, so she applied for the job. She was really hired.

After a detailed understanding of the detention center, Steward Yu has even more admiration for Shen Wan, the county lord. This detention center can be said to be a refuge for desperate women.

"Aren't the abandoned ones able to come to ask for help?" A woman with her hair wrapped in a cloth towel, her cheeks sunken, her face sad, and her coarse linen clothes summoned up her courage to ask.

She was going to the city to sell embroidery work, and when she passed by, she saw that there were people setting off firecrackers, cutting ribbons, and surrounded by many people. It was very lively, so she followed other people to watch the excitement.

I heard that everyone can come in for a visit, so I followed everyone in.

Steward Yu saw the woman was about to answer, when he heard the county magistrate say, "It's not that she was abandoned. If you encounter domestic violence from your husband's family, you can also come to our rescue center for help. Our rescue center will provide shelter."

"There are also those who have been abused by their parents and relatives at home and have no one to decide. No matter men, women or children, they can go to the rescue and shelter center for help."

Hearing this, some people voiced their objections.

"It's said that it's hard for an upright official to decide on housework. This is considered to be housework. I'm afraid it's not good for the rescue and shelter center to take care of these things?"

"That's right, besides, there is no fight between the husband and wife."

"The mother-in-law is disobedient, so naturally she has to be beaten up to be honest."

"That's right." Several men echoed. Many older women who became mothers-in-law also nodded their heads in agreement, "This shelter can accommodate the elderly, widowed, orphans, and those with disabilities who are left unattended. What about abandoned women? and abused, this

If a woman is good, can she still be divorced and abused by her husband's family? "

"That's right, the county lord is a bit lenient."

When Shen Wan heard these words, she felt a little overwhelmed, she took a deep breath and told herself to calm down.

Yun Luochuan squeezed his wife's hand, and said with a smile on his face, "It's precisely because upright officials can't break up housework, and the government can't take care of it, that our rescue and shelter center has nowhere to go for those who have been abandoned, and those who have been raped by the family Women and children provide assistance."

"How many people in this world can't stand the torture and abuse of their husband's family or relatives and choose to commit suicide. I believe everyone knows better than us, but do they really deserve to die?" Yun Luochuan looked at those who raised objections and asked. ?

A few men rubbed their noses embarrassingly at him and lowered their heads. "Hey, the little daughter-in-law next door to my house just couldn't stand the torture of her mother-in-law and the beatings of her husband, and her family didn't care about it. She couldn't think of throwing herself into the well the day before yesterday! That little daughter-in-law is also a hard worker. , if someone

If you can help and take care of her, maybe she won't die, she's only eighteen! "Someone talked about the examples around him.

"There was one in my natal village who was even worse. She was directly beaten to death by her husband. If she paid her natal family ten taels of silver, nothing would happen. A life is only worth ten taels of silver, tsk tsk..."

"There is a girl in our village who was also tortured by her stepmother. In order to exchange a bride price for her younger brother, she was sold into a flower building by her stepmother. That girl was also very hot-tempered. She hit a pillar and died in the flower building..." "A good sister of mine, because her husband became rich and wanted to marry a high-class girl, she was charged with a crime and divorced. Her parents died early, and her natal sister-in-law couldn't tolerate her, so she threw herself into the river and died. "The talking woman became red as she spoke.

squinted.

"If, if there had been this detention center two years ago, she might not have died." The woman choked up and wiped her tears with a veil.

Everyone sighed when they heard these examples. Do these people deserve to die?

Don't be damned.

If someone could take care of them and help them, if they had someone who could shelter them, if there was a place where they could get out of the abyss and shelter from the wind and rain, perhaps these tragedies would not have happened.

Yun Luochuan said loudly: "We save this kind of people in order to reduce the occurrence of similar tragedies." Ji Zhifu nodded and said: "I think it's very good, some housework is difficult for the government to handle, but it's true that someone should take care of them. People who were abused at home gave a helping hand, saved people from the fire and water, and prevented the tragedy from happening. This is a kind deed, and the people of Jiangzhou

The support. "

With Ji Zhifu's words, no one voiced any objection, they all applauded.

On the way back to the city, Yun Luochuan and his wife walked with Ji Zhifu.

The prefect Ji told them that he will return to Beijing to report on his duties next month, and there is a high probability that he will stay in the imperial city. At that time, the imperial court will also send a new prefect of Jiangzhou.

When the husband and wife heard this, they all congratulated each other. They probably wanted to be promoted if they stayed in the imperial city.

Being able to return to the imperial city can be regarded as fulfilling Ji Zhifu's long-cherished wish. He also said that when he returned to the imperial city, he would definitely report to the emperor Shen Wan's good deeds of running a free academy in Jiangzhou and building a rescue and shelter center. Shen Wan said with a smile Thanks.

Back in Yun Mansion, Yun Luochuan told his father about Ji Zhi Mansion's upcoming promotion, and Yun Changfeng was still a little worried after hearing this.

Although Zhifu Ji said that he has stayed in Jiangzhou for more than ten years without moving his land, he is a good official and an honest official. It is because of him that the people of Jiangzhou have lived very peacefully for more than ten years.

Now that he is going to be promoted, if another corrupt official comes in, the life of the common people will be difficult. Moreover, Jiangzhou is rich and rich. Although it is far away from the imperial city, it is a piece of fertile land. I am afraid that many people are staring at it!
