The cold sweat was about to fall off the yamen servant's forehead.
Then I heard the little boy behind him say: "Man Bao, don't be afraid, I will let Daji build the boat when I go back, if the flood comes down, we will sit on the boat, so that we won't be flooded, and we can catch the water while sitting on the boat." Where's the fish?"
Man Bao wowed, and immediately thought of a better way, "Let my fourth brother learn to swim, so that he can go into the water to catch fish and pass them to us on the boat."
Thursday Lang: ...
Bai Shanbao suddenly pointed to the river and said, "Look, big fish!"
Man Bao couldn't help poking inside to have a look, and sure enough, he saw a palm-sized fish that had just come out from under a rock, swiped its tail, and disappeared with a whistling sound. It seems that I really want to grab it.
County magistrate Fu who was standing behind them coughed lightly, stepped forward, and looked down as well.
Zhou Zhou Lang looked back and suddenly saw a group of well-dressed people appearing behind him, he was startled, he was always courageous, he patted his chest and asked, "Who are you?"
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao raised their heads, and the first thing they saw was County Magistrate Fu standing in the front.
Bai Shanbao just glanced at it and said, "This is the county magistrate." Didn't you see the seal pattern on the clothes
Zhou Zhou Lang's eyes widened, and he saluted somewhat with the same hands and feet, but he couldn't help but look up at him secretly.
Magistrate Fu didn't pay attention to Zhou Zhoulang, but was very curious about Bai Shanbao. He stroked his beard and asked him with a smile, "Where is Mr. Xiao Lang from?"
Bai Shanbao and Man Bao had already got up from the ground, patted the mud in their hands, and saluted the students as if they were students, and replied: "Go back to the county magistrate, the students are from Qili Village."
Magistrate Fu asked with a smile, "From what you said just now, do you know how to build the dam?"
Bai Shanbao looked at Man Bao and said, "I don't understand, but Man Bao knows something, why don't you ask her."
County Magistrate Fu was slightly surprised and looked at Man Bao.
Man Bao was shorter than Bai Shanbao, and he looked younger than Bai Shanbao at first glance. He was staring at his clothes curiously on his round face.
Magistrate Fu couldn't help chuckling, and asked, "What's the girl's name?"
Man Bao saluted and replied, "My name is Zhou Man."
"Huh," County Magistrate Fu asked, "Are you famous?"
Folk women rarely have a big name, especially for such a young child. Some families don't get a big name until the girl and Ji are about to discuss marriage, but most folk women don't have a big name until they die.
Man Bao took it for granted: "Of course, I am an aunt now."
"Oh?" County magistrate Fu became interested, so he found a stone by the river bank and sat down, and asked the two of them to come up to talk, and asked Man Bao, "Then your brother is very old?"
Man Bao nodded, pointing directly at Zhou Dalang and Zhou Zhoulang who were selling soup and food in the distance, and said, "Here, those are my eldest brother and second brother, and this is my fourth brother."
County magistrate Fu took a look. He had been to Heba several times, so he naturally knew that there were people doing business here. He didn't care too much, but he was still a little happy, happy that their family was thriving.
Because population is also one of the county magistrate's evaluations, he asked with a smile, "How many brothers do you have?"
"Six!"
Magistrate Fu approved, "Yes, yes, your father can have six sons, and it would be great if your brothers could also have six."
Man Bao thought for a while, then widened his eyes slightly, "Then how much house does my family need to live in?"
Bai Shanbao also hugged his stomach and laughed, "You won't even be able to recognize people at that time."
Man Bao argued: "I have a good memory. I can remember all the people in the village. How can I not recognize them all?"
County Magistrate Fu: ... Why did the topic suddenly turn here
He coughed lightly and asked Man Bao again, "Do you know how to build a river dam?"
"You know a little bit," Man Bao said realistically, "Then it's not being built here now. To build a dam is to use wood, stone and mud to build a sloped wall that can release and retain water."
Magistrate Fu nodded with a smile, "That's true."
He thought that Man Bao had concluded it after looking at the dam under construction, and he no longer paid attention to the childish words of the two children, but the county magistrate behind him couldn't help asking: "Why is it inclined?"
"Because it can relieve the force." Man Baogang heard from Keke that the most important point is to calculate the inclination according to the actual situation, so as to prevent the dam from being washed away with the maximum water resistance.
Man Bao told the county magistrate with his own understanding, "If a stick stands like this, if the water rushes down from a high height, it may break. , it may have flowed down from it, and the stick is still inserted obliquely."
The county magistrate was surprised, and even the county magistrate couldn't help turning his head to look at Man Bao, and asked, "Who told you this?"
Man Bao thought for a while and said, "My friend told me the truth, but I thought the words, and I think I'm right."
They secretly went to play in the reeds. The sticks stuck in the mud, as long as the wind is strong, the straight ones will fall before the oblique ones, but she will not tell the adults about this, because she and Bai Shanbao are very different. After a lot of delicious food, I bought off the friends who watched them, so I didn't want to tell the adults.
Daji who has been accompanying them like a shadow, watching them play silently: ... I am also an adult!
Magistrate Fu was amazed at Man Bao's intelligence, but he didn't take it too seriously. After all, she was a girl, but it was Bai Shanbao who caught his attention.
Bai Shanbao also had something to say to magistrate Fu, he pulled Manbao's sleeve, and whispered into her ear in front of everyone.
He thought it was whispering, but the voice was not low at all, and everyone stood close, so they all heard it.
Bai Shanbao said: "Show the county magistrate the article we wrote."
Man Bao said: "I haven't finished writing yet, sir said I can't meet people yet."
Bai Shanbao was unhappy, and said: "It's been a year, how long will it take to write, I think the writing is very good, and now I can show it to the county magistrate, so we may not meet the county magistrate in the future."
Speaking of this, Bai Shanbao stopped whispering in Manbao's ear, but discussed with Manbao openly in front of everyone.
Man Bao didn't find anything wrong, and said confidently: "It doesn't matter, after writing it out, the master said it's ok, and I will ask my friend to send it to the county magistrate."
Bai Shanbao was curious, "Your friend knows the county magistrate?"
Magistrate Fu was also very curious.
Man Bao nodded and said, "Yes, the county magistrate is her father."
The county magistrate, the master book and others looked at magistrate Fu.
Magistrate Fu: ...
Bai Shanbao insisted, "I think the writing is very good."
"Sir said it wasn't good enough, otherwise we wouldn't have come to see Laudin building the dam."
