"Xuanzhi, why don't you speak up?" Cheng Jia walked up to Wang Xuanzhi whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and said.
"Do you think she will talk nicely to me?" Wang Xuanzhi's nose seemed to burst into flames. He has grown up so much, but he has never been scolded like this before.
"Your Wang family wanted to kill her and blackmailed her so much money. What do you want her to do when she sees you? I told you earlier, I'll do it." Cheng Jia patted him on the shoulder and said.
"This kind of woman, my sister is not wrong, she is just..." After holding back, Wang Xuanzhi still couldn't swear, and sighed: "Do we have to rely on her?"
"Actually, it doesn't count on her, but some judgments of the head of the family will be much earlier than ours, so at least we can take some precautions. Originally, I just came to investigate the matter of the King of Chu, but I asked you to do this. I am troublesome." Cheng Jia laughed. road. If there is a flood, the judgment made one day in advance can save many people.
"This is my duty, as it should be." Wang Xuanzhi said. He is the number one scholar of this year, and the imperial envoy who came out with Shang Fang's sword. Although what he said was to nationalize the hidden land of the king of Chu, he also had the right to do things cheaply. He came forward to prevent floods and dispatch manpower. It's just right.
"Then let's split things up first." Cheng Jia nodded and said. At last, there is still one person in the Wang family who is sensible and able to do things.
"Brother Cheng, won't you go back to the county office with me?" Wang Xuanzhi asked in surprise.
"I'll just live here, and I can always ask her for advice if there is any need." Cheng Jia said with a smile.
"If that's the case, then I'll live here too, it's more convenient." Wang Xuanzhi walked inside after speaking.
Tomorrow she will be furious when she finds out! Cheng Jia thought to herself, and walked back with a smile on her face.
Sum and Xie Sanlang who were kicked out asked Ying Shisan: "Brother Shisan, where shall we sleep?"
"It shouldn't rain tonight." Ying Shisan looked at the roof and said, "Sleep on the roof." Let's see how the head of the family scolds the two officials tomorrow, it's really awesome!
Ling Qingyu's forehead was bursting with blue veins, and the chopsticks in his hands were shaking slightly. Seeing these two uninvited guests, he gracefully ordered his servant to pour water and wash his hands, and then sat in front of her to eat the breakfast made by Ying Shisan... people.
Cheng Jia said to Ying Shisan: "This bun is too big, I should make it smaller next time." Taking a long breath, another vein popped out on Ling Qingyu's forehead.
"Master Cheng, Lord Wang," Ling Qingyu called out in an extremely dark tone.
"What's the matter? Don't talk about the food, let's eat first." Cheng Jia took a sip of the porridge bluntly, picked up a small dish with chopsticks, and said.
"I can't find any adjectives to describe the shameless behavior of you two! You are ruthless!" Ling Qingyu finished speaking with restrained anger, slapped his chopsticks, grabbed Cheng Jia's collar, and said: "Snatch the children's room, you're sorry!"
"He stole it!" Cheng Jia pointed at Wang Xuanzhi who was opposite with his chopsticks, and said with grievance.
"Would he have come without you?" Ling Qingyu asked angrily.
Wang Xuanzhi gave Ling Qingyu a cold look, bowed his head and continued to eat elegantly.
Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's useless to be angry with these bastards, Ling Qingyu let go of Cheng Jia, rubbed his face, and said: "I'm here with you, let Han Yan go."
"Brother Han, I just invited him to be a guest at the county government." Wang Xuanzhi said lightly.
"Don't give me a sloppy eye. I also have a farm. If Han Bian doesn't let me deal with it, you go?" Ling Qingyu looked at him bitterly and said, "Han Bian doesn't know how to water, so it's useless for you to keep him."
Seeing that the two were silent, Ling Qingyu smiled coldly and said, "Sanlang, what are the six characters of our Ling family?"
"Ah?" Xie Sanlang stood aside and looked at Ling Qingyu suspiciously.
"Keep your word, keep your sincerity, and keep your virtue." Ying Shisan refilled a bowl of porridge for Ling Qingyu, and said.
Xie Sanlang and Sum both glanced at Ying Shisan, Brother Shisan? When did this happen
"We have always been committed to doing things! Unlike some people..." Looking at Wang Xuanzhi's face (this person does not give money for hairpins) and Cheng Jia's face (this person has never seen what he says), Ling Qingyu snorted coldly road.
"Well, what Master Ling said is also correct, as long as Master Ling is here, brother Han also has something to do." Cheng Jia ignored her stark contemptuous eyes and said to Wang Xuan.
"The head of the house." Han Bian still hesitated and couldn't help calling.
"My water quality is good, don't worry, it's just that I don't want my belongings to be hacked by them again, and what's more, you have to go back and contact Zheng Xi and Cai Jingfang. Large-scale floods, then we still have to take out the food for disaster relief." Ling Qingyu ordered in a low voice.
"But, you only keep two people here..." Han Bian glanced at the officers and soldiers standing behind her, and said.
"Don't worry, Sanlang is still too young, it's dangerous to stay here. You will have Shisan by your side all the way, so I don't worry, I have Yansan here." Ling Qingyu laughed. The most important thing is my carload of babies. If Wang Xuanzhi finds out, it will definitely be over.
"Understood, master, you should be more careful." Han Bian got on the horse and said.
"In the water, I am invincible!" Ling Qingyu waved at him and said.
The cars and horses slowly accelerated, and soon disappeared at the intersection. Ling Qingyu turned around and saw that the seriousness on Cheng Jia's face was still too late to disappear, and said, "Do you still have time to look at me here? Look at the sky, I'm afraid it's going to rain again."
"Thirteen is gone, who will cook?" Cheng Jia asked with a smile on his face.
Ling Qingyu almost tripped over the threshold, turned around and gave him a hard look, then threw his sleeves and went in.
It didn't rain in the next few days, but the weather turned hot. Wang Xuanzhi and Cheng Jia breathed a sigh of relief, and started to do their own work here. They didn't treat Ling Qingyu so strictly, and let her go out.
Ling Qingyu was not in such a good mood as the two of them. Walking on the street, he subconsciously looked at those tall buildings. Jiangling is a flat river here. If the Yangtze River breaks its embankment, it will definitely be completely submerged.
"Go away, go away, what kind of rice do you buy if you don't have money?" At the door of the rice shop in front, a young man was pushed out and fell to the ground.
"When the rice is harvested, I will pay you twice as much." The young man fell to the ground and still said.
"Can you return it? You should pretend that we don't know. Your master belongs to your master. Your master rebelled with the king of Chu. Your land was originally in a bad way, and now it has been taken back by the court. You are still harvesting rice. Wait a minute." Let's go to court." The rice shop clerk sneered, kicked him again, and turned back to the shop.
"Isn't that Zhu Xiucai?" A woman beside Ling Qingyu whispered to the people around her.
"What kind of scholar, you have been deprived of fame and fame long ago, have you heard that, this time the imperial court specially sent imperial envoys to investigate the properties of the former king of Chu, and the properties of many families were seized in the name of the remnants of the king of Chu."
"Hey... I just hope it doesn't involve us."
"Let's be honest, those fields are all passed down from our ancestors, how could something happen?"
"Who knows, yesterday I heard from the family member that the fields in a village were said to be hidden fields, and they were taken back."
"Stop talking, let's go."
The surrounding noises faded away, Ling Qingyu watched the young man on the ground slowly get up, although a long gown had been patched a lot, but those patches were done with great care, the colors were similar, and the needles and threads were also dense. I can't see it, but it's already covered in dust and mud.
The young man stood up, glanced at the rice shop, and walked into the alley.
There was a young woman standing in the alley. Seeing him coming, she burst into tears, and said heartbroken, "Does it hurt from the fall? They say we shouldn't go."
"Yan San, go buy some rice." Ling Qingyu stood at the entrance of the alley and said in a low voice.
"Um."
After Yan San left for the rice shop, Ling Qingyu also walked into the alley, the two heard someone coming in, and hurriedly stood aside, the woman quickly wiped away her tears.
"Give me all the broken silver on your body." Ling Qingyu whispered to Sum, then took the purse he handed over, weighed it, and walked in front of the two.
"Here are some pieces of silver. If you have relatives, you might as well seek refuge first." Ling Qingyu handed the purse to the young woman.
"How does this happen?" The young woman looked at her in surprise, but didn't answer.
Ling Qingyu took her hand, put the purse in her hand, and said, "Well, I have a friend whose surname is Zhu, so let me give it to him."
The young man's eyes lit up, but he stopped asking and pulled the woman's clothes.
Only then did the woman accept it, and said gratefully: "Miss, we will definitely pay back the money in the future."
Ling Qingyu smiled slightly, and didn't say much, just stood and waited for Yan San to come over with a big bag of rice, Fang said: "You take these rice too, if you have other places to go, go first, if there is really no Place, I am recruiting people, if you have ideas, you can come to Hangzhou to find Ling's boat company, that's all."
The young man bowed his hands and said, "Thank you very much."
Watching the two go away supporting each other, Ling Qingyu said in a low voice: "I'm afraid that many people's homes in Jiangling will be ruined again."
Yan San put his arms around her waist, Ling Qingyu raised his head and smiled at him, saying: "The world is like this, we can't control that much, Yan San, your water skills are not good, let's find a higher ground first, if something happens, There is also a place to hide."
Take precautions before they happen, and be prepared for danger in times of peace. After living in this world, Ling Qingyu's deepest understanding is to do this, and traps will appear somewhere.
She had just prepared a large amount of food, medicine, clothing and so on, and it started to rain heavily in Jiangling.
The rain is like a hanging rope, and the wind blows like the trees outside are about to break. The sky is full of rain.
