240. Refuge
Lin asked people to put the lotus picking boat downstairs, tie the rope, and pull the rope up to the fifth floor, everyone didn't dare to climb too high, so they stayed on the fourth, fifth and sixth floors, but each floor was not wide, and there were people mixed together, so it became very crowded, and they were in a hurry, they didn't bring anything, the building was vacant for a long time, there was no furniture, only a few chairs were given to Lin and Xiao Miao, and the rest of the people could only stand.

Miao felt sorry for Yao Kerou, who was soaking wet, and pulled her in his arms and hugged her, but the clothes of the two of them were wet, and it was even more uncomfortable to stick together, but Yao Kerou couldn't take care of it so much at this time, and if she didn't let her sit and rest, her leg would be broken.
After settling down with the Lin family, Yao Keqing beckoned the orange and gave a few orders, and the orange called a few strong and powerful servants to look for it all over the building, and finally found a ding.
Then Yao Keqing asked someone to dismantle the furniture in the house, Yao Kerong was puzzled, "Second sister, what are you doing?" Even if it's at my grandfather's house, you can't be so presumptuous!
"Make a fire!" Yao Keqing's concise reply made everyone almost cry with joy, there was a fire! Everyone didn't bring any clothes, of course, they were probably soaked when they did.
There was smoke when the fire was first lit, so Yao Keqing asked someone to move the Ding to the floor where no one was going to make a fire, and the fire was lit before moving back, the Ding was placed between the Lin family and the Miao family, and the fire made by the firewood had a great smell of smoke, Yao Kerou's smoked eyes couldn't open, and she just wanted to stay away, but the warmth from the fire made her want to get closer.
Yao Keqing first dried his cloak and gave it to Lin, and then took off Lin's coat to roast, Lin refused, "You roast your own first, children can't stand the cold!"
"My body has been a lot stronger over the years, and I have no illness and disaster all year round, and my grandmother is old, and she can't stand the cold!" Yao Keqing insisted on taking off Lin's coat, Lin's eyes were hot, how could such a caring child not make her feel distressed.
While taking care of the Lin family, Yao Keqing did not forget the Miao family, after all, the Miao family is her grandmother, even if she is closer to the Lin family in her heart, she can't settle the truth in front of everyone, but Yao Kerong volunteered to take care of the Miao family, and Yao Keqing also pushed the boat.
"Sister, Jiang Tang is here!" Yao Qishen stood at the top of the stairs with two male servants carrying Ding, and the male servants lowered their eyes and looked at the ground. Even so, it still caused a burst of exclamations, and the girl who untied her clothes slightly and wiped them immediately covered her neckline, and those who did not undress were busy tidying up.
After everyone sorted it out, Yao Keqing called Yao Qishen over. "Have you drunk?"
"Drink, the fire is ready!" The female dependents stayed on the sixth floor, considering that some female dependents would take off their clothes and take the test, Yao Keqing asked Yao Qishen to go downstairs.
The ginger that boiled the ginger soup was asked by Yao Keqing to be brought before going out, the bowl was found from the building, washed with rainwater, and the water used to boil the ginger soup was also rainwater, although it was not very clean, but it was not a big problem to boil and drink again. But there is no sugar, as soon as you enter it, the spicy taste immediately chokes people's tears, but everyone knows that it is fortunate to have a bowl of ginger soup to ward off the cold in this case, no one complained, pinched his nose and drank it.
The number of bowls was not enough, and the master drank it all, so the next person took the bowl used by the master and continued to drink.
Seeing Yao Keqing in danger, calmly directing his subordinates to do things in an orderly manner, and then looking at Yao Kerou who was so frightened in her arms that she hadn't come back to her senses, Miao's heart was very uncomfortable, she always thought that Yao Keqing should be stupid to read, but now Yao Keqing has subverted her previous views on her, this girl is not simple!
Through the firelight, Miao's gaze at Yao Keqing flickered and dimmed.
Soon after everyone entered the stargazing tower, the flood came, and it was able to rub the ancient acacia tree at the door of the Fang family's courtyard, and swept away the blue brick floor at the door, but the courtyard was intact, and the Lin family breathed a sigh of relief, although the water did not rush into the courtyard, but the Lin family did not dare to ask everyone to go downstairs, maybe there would be a second wave!
At this time, it was not yet dawn, I was worried for half the night, and hurriedly avoided the flood, everyone was tired enough, and now they drank ginger soup and dried their clothes, and they couldn't hold on, and they were drowsy one by one.
Lin didn't close his eyes all night, and now he is already holding on.
"It will take almost an hour before dawn, grandmother will sleep for a while! I'll take care of this side first!" Yao Keqing persuaded.
When he arrived at the stargazing building, the Lin family was busy taking care of the children of the Fang family and the Yao family, tidying up the resting place, settling down people, lighting a fire, boiling ginger soup, and everything else was arranged by Yao Keqing.
affirmed Yao Keqing's ability to do things, but he was reluctant to let Yao Keqing work so hard, "Grandmother is fine, she can still survive, you are tired in the middle of the night, hurry up and rest!"
Yao Keqing shook his head, "There are more things waiting for my grandmother to arrange when it is dawn! If I don't keep my spirits up, how can my grandmother have the strength to deal with things? I'll wait until dawn before going to sleep!"
Yao Keqing is telling the truth, no matter whether the flood recedes after dawn or not, the Lin family has to make arrangements, send people back to Beijing to report the news, count the losses of the other courtyard, and reward the subordinates who perform well... This series of things is waiting for Lin to do. But Lin looked at the blue and black under Yao Keqing's eyes, and couldn't bear to leave Yao Keqing to rest by himself.
Yao Keqing persuaded again, "When it is dawn, you have to go to Princess Duanyuan to inquire, and you have to do it yourself!"
The royal courtyard was built with extraordinary strength, a good location, and a high wall, so it could withstand even if the flood came, so when the flood came, the Lin family didn't ask Princess Duanyuan, but how could he ask afterwards, Yao Keqing is a junior, not a member of the Fang family, so he can't be the master, so he wants the Lin family to come forward.
It is most effective to use responsibility to pressure Lin, and Lin has no choice but to close his eyes according to his words.
Lin slept here, Yao Keqing went to see Miao again, Miao had already fallen asleep with Yao Kerou on the chair, Yao Kerong and Yao Keyi squeezed on the pedal, Yao Kerong gave his cloak out in a hurry, there was no Yao Kerou with a cloak, she and Yao Keyi shared Yao Keyi's cloak.
Yao Kerong didn't fall asleep, squinting slightly and watching Yao Keqing shuttling through the crowd, followed by three girls, all her six girls followed by her side, three on duty, all the subordinates in the stargazing building were arranged like this, divided into two batches, one group to rest, the other group on duty, and one hour to change.
Thinking of his jealousy of Yao Keqing, Yao Kerong couldn't help but sigh slightly, what capital did he have to think that one day he could become the same as Yao Keqing, or even surpass her. When the flood came, she was so frightened that her legs were weak, but she didn't blink her eyelids, and when she was shivering from the cold, she began to make a fire to bake everyone's clothes, and the fire folds and ginger on her body were prepared in advance, and she went out in such a hurry, she only cared about taking the cloak, but she brought these things, it turned out that the gap between them was not only identity, they were in their bones.
