This time Xu Zhenzhen slept until dawn, but she didn't wake up by herself, but was woken up by the noise outside the yard, which was noisy and flustered.
Xu Zhenzhen hurriedly ran out to open the door and saw that the whole village was running towards the back of the mountain, and Grandma Liang was also about to set off. When she saw Xu Zhenzhen, she hurriedly pulled her over and said, "Really, go to the Water Empress Temple, those God damn it, I wanted to take advantage of the night to demolish it, but fortunately, Shui Niangniang appeared and captured them all and tied them up."
"Huh?" Xu Zhenzhen didn't react for a while.
"Hurry up, let's go and have a look." Grandma Liang dragged Xu Zhenzhen and ran up the mountain.
"Grandma, I haven't washed my face and brushed my teeth yet!" Xu Zhenzhen said dumbfounded.
"It doesn't matter what you wash your face or brush your teeth. The most important thing is to protect Shui Niangniang." Grandma Liang didn't turn her head, she just refused to let go.
Xu Zhenzhen had no choice but to be dragged by her to run. Fortunately, she had practiced quite fruitfully in the past few days. Seeing that Grandma Liang was out of breath, she was fine at all, as if she was taking a walk.
Entering the temple, I saw yesterday’s old Cui and a few people who looked like workers, tied back to back by ropes, sitting in a circle, with tools scattered all over the ground beside them, and many villagers surrounded him, Point at them.
Lao Yang came in behind Grandma Liang and Xu Zhenzhen. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help pointing at Lao Cui and scolded: "Yesterday you swore to go back and report to solve the problem, but you didn't expect to come here at night to force the demolition. This is good, and you will be punished." Bar!"
"Old Yang, Village Chief Yang, we did something wrong, hurry up and untie it for us, let's untie it!" Old Cui was tied up all night, already exhausted and terrified, last night was really evil , They were just about to start working with the tools, but they couldn't move, and then they saw a rope flying over by themselves to tie them up firmly.
"Hmph, it's impossible to let you go now, you can leave only after the person who can make the decision comes over!" Lao Yang said angrily.
After finishing speaking, regardless of Lao Cui's begging there, he led the villagers into the main hall to worship, and muttered to himself begging Shui Niangniang to calm down, as long as he, Lao Yang, was around, this temple could not be demolished.
"Lao Yang, give me my mobile phone, I'll call them!" Seeing that Lao Yang was unmoved, Lao Cui could only say this. It seems that if the person in charge of the investment company doesn't show up, he won't be able to escape. .
"Guisheng, get him a cell phone." Lao Yang ordered.
Guisheng responded, ran to Lao Cui, knelt down and took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and dialed Mr. Wang according to Lao Cui's instructions.
"Hey, Mr. Wang, I'm Lao Cui, come to Shui Niangniang to watch quickly, something has happened! You have to bring the person in charge of your company here, otherwise it will be a disaster." Lao Cui cried said in a tone.
Xu Zhenzhen couldn't hear what Mr. Wang said on the other end of the phone, but seeing Lao Cui's expression change from bitter haha to angry, he said anxiously: "Mr. Wang, you can't do this, it was you who said yesterday that we should start construction at night. Yes, you can’t ignore this matter, besides, if you ignore it, there is no way to solve this project, you should report it to the higher authorities, otherwise you will be the one to blame in the end.”
It seems that Mr. Wang wants to let go, but he doesn't think about it. As the project leader of the investment company, can he get out of the way
"Okay, okay, then we are waiting for you, so many of us are tied up, and we are waiting for you to rescue, please hurry up!" Old Cui's voice became cheerful, and it seemed that Mr. Wang He promised to come and solve it.
The sun gradually rose, and Lao Yang led a group of people to sit in the main hall. The tied up old Cui and the others were sweaty from the sun. Xu Zhenzhen felt a little sympathetic to them, so he walked to Lao Yang and said, "The village Chang, the weather is so hot now, they might suffer from heat stroke if they are exposed to the sun like this, why not untie them and let them sit in the hall to escape? There are so many of us, and they have been tossed all night, they can't even run Can't run."
Lao Yang raised his eyes and looked at Xu Zhenzhen, but he didn't say anything. Grandma Liang came over to intercede with Lao Yang, "Old Yang, you are really right. These workers also obey orders. But it turns out, if they are allowed to bask like this, if something happens, it will not end well, and what was supposed to be reasonable for us has become unreasonable for us."
After listening to Grandma Liang's words, Lao Yang thought about it, and saw that the faces of those people were already flushed, so he waved his hands and said, "Okay, but they want to disrespect the Shui Empress, so they can't be allowed to enter the hall. We can only let them stay in the corridor outside the hall."
"Okay, thank you, village chief." Xu Zhenzhen quickly replied with Lao Yang's permission.
Xu Zhenzhen cast a grateful look at Grandma Liang, then walked quickly to Lao Cui, knelt down and untied him the rope, and said: "Boss Cui, Village Chief Yang asked me to untie your rope, the sun is too big here Now, you will go to a cool place outside the hall later, don't try to escape, there are so many people here, you can't escape."
"Okay, we know we know, thank you girl." Lao Cui was very grateful when he heard the girl in front of him beg for Lao Yang just now, and said repeatedly.
"Thank you girl, thank you girl." The workers who were untied by Xu Zhenzhen also thanked them.
Xu Zhenzhen led these people to a cool place outside the main hall, and said, "You guys take a rest here, and when the person in charge comes, you can solve the problem."
"Hey, okay, thank you girl." Old Cui and the workers sat down on the ground. This place is much more comfortable than under the sun, and they can rest against the pillars for a while.
After watching the excitement for a long time, Xu Zhenzhen realized that she hadn't washed yet, so she hurried into the backyard to see if there was any water for washing. She walked to the back and found a well there, quickly picked up the bucket next to it, fetched a bucket of water from the well, rinsed her mouth indiscriminately and wiped her face, thinking of those people outside who had been tied up all night, she felt a little sad Uneasy, is there any expert here
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out why, so Xu Zhenzhen simply stopped thinking about it. Even if there are experts, they are still on the side of the villagers, so there is no need to worry too much.
After Xu Zhenzhen finished washing, she thought that there were so many people outside, so she should bring a bucket of water out for everyone to drink to quench their thirst. She filled a bucket of water from the well, took a ladle, and went out with the bucket go.
The people inside and outside the main hall just looked at a girl who looked delicate and walked over with a wooden bucket full of water, and couldn't help whispering to each other.
"Hey, this girl is really strong, such a full bucket of water seems to be fine."
"That's right, I thought she was from the city, so she must have no strength, but I didn't expect her to be very strong."
After practicing, Xu Zhenzhen's hearing ability is very good. Hearing such a discussion among the crowd, he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. It's a bit eye-catching!
"Grandma Liang, are you thirsty, come and drink some water?" Xu Zhenzhen walked up to Grandma Liang and said with a smile.
"It's hard for you child to be thoughtful. You can't carry so much water without sinking?" Grandma Liang quickly helped Xu Zhenzhen put the bucket on the ground and said.
Xu Zhenzhen was in the middle of his heart when he heard this, and hurriedly said loudly: "It doesn't sink, I have been strong since I was a child, let alone a bucket of water, I can do it with two buckets!"
"Hehe, you kid, what are you doing so loudly, grandma can hear you." Grandma Liang said with a smile on her face, this kid is really funny.
You can hear it, but let them hear it, Xu Zhenzhen thought to himself.
"Girl, girl, can you give us some water?" The worker sitting outside the hall licked his chapped lips and asked carefully.
Xu Zhenzhen hurriedly scooped up a large basin of water with a ladle, handed it over and said, "Come, drink."
The worker hurriedly took the water ladle and drank it in big gulps, until he was full and did not forget to pass it to the next worker.
Seeing this, Xu Zhenzhen picked up the bucket and walked to them so that they could add water at any time. The water ladle was turned around in the hands of a group of people and returned to Xu Zhenzhen's hands, and most of the water in the bucket had been wiped out.
In fact, it is these workers who need water the most. The villagers in the village all come out of their homes in the morning, and they are not thirsty yet. Xu Zhenzhen thought about it, and brought the remaining half of the bucket of water back to the backyard. There are so many people and this little water is not enough to drink, so it is better to carry another bucket out.
"Sister Liang, there is a nice girl from this city. She lives next to your house, right? The girl from the house that was stolen by the tomb robbers last time?" Lao Yang saw Xu Zhenzhen's actions, and his impression of her increased in his heart. Quite a lot.
"Yes, this girl is really nice." Grandma Liang's smiling face was full of pride, as if she was her own granddaughter.
"Then you should take care of her more, you might not be used to the life here when you first came here." Lao Yang said, smoking a pipe.
"I think she's quite adaptable. It's rare that young people are willing to live in the countryside now," said Grandma Liang.
"Look, that girl came back with a bucket full of water." Lao Yang knocked his pipe on the sole of his shoe and said approvingly.
Xu Zhenzhen put the bucket in the main hall and told everyone to come and drink when they were thirsty. She glanced at the time on her mobile phone, and it was almost an hour. According to Lao Cui, if this investment company works in the urban area, it would take about an hour. I can rush over here.
She came out early in the morning, and didn't even have time to see Uncle Cat. She was still a little worried, and didn't know if he had recovered. She said hello to Lao Yang and Grandma Liang, and then went down the mountain.
Just half an hour after Xu Zhenzhen went down the mountain, the villagers who were sent by Lao Yang to keep watch on the mountainside hurried up and said out of breath, "Here, come, I saw a small car driving up the mountain."
When Lao Yang heard this, he stood up with a serious face, and said to the villagers around him: "Folks, the Water Empress Temple has existed since our village, and we must keep this temple, do you have confidence? "
"have!"
"It must be kept!"
"Okay! Then everyone will listen to my command later, do you have any objections?" Seeing everyone's concerted efforts, Lao Yang couldn't help but get agitated.
"No objection." The villagers replied in unison.
