Hua Concubine stood in front of the stove next to Tang Ningnan, picked up a piece of firewood with a handkerchief in disgust, and sent it into the fire, she was frightened by the sparks that came out and screamed, and retreated again and again, but the room full of people were busy with the things at hand, and no one cared about her at all, which made Hua Concubine a little embarrassed, looking at everyone and not knowing what to say.

Duan An saw that Hua Concubine didn't know how to do this at all, so he simply walked to her side and squeezed Hua Concubine away, and started the work of burning firewood by himself.

It's not enough to just talk about pot porridge, Tang Ningnan said again, she still has to make some food to fill her stomach, so she asked Duan An to send someone to count the number of victims, she plans to make some steamed buns, so that she can be hungry after eating.

It's just that she is not very good at making pasta, and she thought of the woman who had just talked to her, she already had a child, and she thought that she should be able to take it, so she personally invited her and asked her if she could help her make steamed steamed buns.

When the woman heard that Tang Ningnan was going to invite her to the county government to steam steamed buns for the victims, she wondered again, what kind of identity did these people have, so that this indifferent county order could open a granary for disaster relief?

But thinking that after cooking well, it would be a good thing to keep her two children from starving and to fill the stomachs of the villagers, so she agreed without asking much, and followed Tang Ningnan to the county office.

In fact, who is really doing things, and who is fishing in troubled waters and pretending, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

This is a queen, thinking that it is just the difference between concubines, Duan An thought in his heart, and the movements of his hands couldn't help but stop, and he was reminded by Tang Ningnan to hurry up and send it to the victims, some of them haven't eaten for a long time, so Duan An put firewood into the stove again.

During the cooking conversation, Tang Ning learned that this woman's name was Ran Jiang, who was originally from Suiliang and married here after meeting her husband.

It's no wonder that the first-hand pasta is skillful, and the rice is eaten here in Mishui, and there should not be many people who are so skilled in making pasta, but Suiliang is a well-known pasta state, so Tang Ningnan really found the right person.

Tang Ningnan's cooking is in full swing, and Feng Feihan is not idle outside.

Together with Li Lanshi, they checked whether there were other hidden dangers on the river embankment, Tang Ningnan went to the county government and reminded Feng Feihan that the officers and soldiers of Mei County had been fighting the flood for several days, and they must be physically and mentally exhausted, so they let the guards brought by Li Lanshi take over their work so that they could have a good rest.

The work on both sides is carried out in an orderly manner, the woman invited by Tang Ningnan here is very skillful in making steamed buns, the steamed buns are steamed quickly, there are more than 100 cage drawers, and soon 500 steamed buns, after counting, there are a total of 482 children brought by the victims outside, this steamed bun is only enough for one person, it is definitely not possible, and it must continue to be steamed.

Feng Feihan's side, with Li Lanshi, carefully inspected along the embankment, and immediately remedied the signs that the embankment was about to burst, and the victims would definitely not be able to stay in a temporary residence with only a grass roof, Feng Feihan ordered Li Lanshi to find a wooden plank to build a shelter for the victims to block the wind.

At this time, Tang Ningnan led people to take the steamed steamed buns and porridge from the county government outside and distribute them to the victims.

The victims who were originally in despair and hungry with their chests against their backs watched that there was such a fairy-like person distributing food to them, and one by one they were like seeing a living Bodhisattva in the world, receiving porridge and steamed buns, and kneeling down to kowtow to Tang Ningnan to thank them.

Before Tang Ningnan could speak, Concubine Hua jumped out first to speak, "Fathers and fellow villagers don't need to be polite, these are what we should do." ”

Everyone saw that this woman was dressed much richer than Tang Ningnan, and they thought that she was the one who allowed the county order to open a warehouse and release grain this time, and they bowed down to her one after another.

Duan An and Na Ran Jiang glanced at each other, why are these people so confused, all of this is obviously made by Tang Ningnan himself, and Concubine Hua can't even burn firewood, let alone advocate making so many steamed buns and porridge.

Ran Jiang couldn't help it at first, and said to the victims, you have worshiped the wrong person, this is the real living Bodhisattva.

Tang Ningnan shook his head, stopped her, and signaled that he didn't need to speak for himself, so Ran Jiang couldn't say anything, but in his heart, he still felt unworthy for Tang Ningnan, and his good credit was robbed by others.

Tang Ningnan naturally didn't care about this, as long as a person like Concubine Hua stayed for a long time, the victims would naturally see what kind of person she was, and what she was worried about now was Feng Feihan's reputation.

Wu Guizhang did not repair the river embankment, which led to the flood bursting and the victims everywhere, but he closed the gate of the county ya, did not open the warehouse to release grain, and finally attributed the sin to Feng Feihan, lying that he did not allocate money, so that Feng Feihan was among the people of Meixian County, and I don't know how to be discussed.

So Tang Ningnan walked in front of everyone and said: "Folks, it is not me who you want to thank, but the emperor, the emperor heard that Meixian County was in trouble, and sent someone to find out the crime of embezzling public silver in Meixian County, and he was concerned about the people of Meixian County, so he sent my lord to come to relieve the disaster, so everything is the credit of the emperor's decision." ”

When everyone heard Tang Ningnan say this, they knelt down in the direction of the north and the capital of Liang Kingdom, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, madam." ”

When Tang Ningnan said this, Feng Fei Han was returning here to supervise the construction of the temporary residence after inspecting the river embankment, and he was very relieved to see Tang Ningnan say these words among the people from a distance.

Duan An also felt that this queen was really thoughtful and did not take credit, but said that this was the emperor's will, and saved the emperor from the quagmire in three or two sentences and maintained the emperor's reputation.

Tang Ningnan also noticed Feng Feihan at this time, and the two of them were smiling across the crowd.

Li Lanshi didn't bring a lot of guards, the local officers and soldiers in Meixian County fought for three days, and it was not appropriate to let them build a wooden house, and now there were not enough people, Feng Feihan also personally went into battle to help, which made Li Lanshi very frightened and wanted to stop the emperor, Tang Ningnan shook his head next to him, and motioned to Li Lanshi to let the emperor do it.

Worried about the lack of manpower, it may not be able to finish the construction in one day, the victims here drank the porridge and ate the steamed buns, and with strength, the young men inside came forward and said that they would help build it.

Tang Ningnan thanked them for their help, and said that they hadn't rested well, and they had been hungry for so many days, so it was not good for them to help.

"It's okay, I'm still young and in good health!"

"Yes, you caught Wu Guizhang's moth, opened a warehouse and put grain for us to eat, and now there is inflammation to build a shelter for us, why don't we sit and don't help."

"yes, let's help."

The victims of the disaster said everything they could, and there were not only men in their prime of life, but also teenagers, old men in their fifties and sixties, as long as they were men, they all said that they wanted to help.

The victims were very warm, Tang Ningnan looked at Feng Feihan, Feng Feihan agreed, but only a man in the prime of life was needed, and Li Lanshi counted the number of applicants.

He also told them that their names would be reported to the imperial court and written into the recital presented to the emperor, and the emperor would definitely praise them for their spirit of fighting the flood together.

Hearing this, the morale of these men was even more excited, and they all reported their names to Li Lanshi.

Seeing the government and the people working together to fight the flood, Feng Feihan showed a relieved expression on his face.

There were about 230 people who came to Li Lanshi to register their names, and suddenly there were so many helpers, and in the afternoon, the wooden house for temporary living was quickly built.

Tang Ningnan and Li Lanshi were responsible for allocating the house and trying to let the family live together, and when discussing the arrangements with Li Lanshi, Tang Ningnan found that some of the victims had been fed, and it was inevitable that they would be sad when they shared their residences.

Probably because their relatives died in this flood, Tang Ningnan thought to himself, feeling that they were very pitiful, and he took the work at hand more seriously.

When everyone's residence was almost arranged, Tang Ningnan also breathed a sigh of relief, now that the victims have landed, the river embankment is repaired now, and Feng Feihan can always relax a little bit by doing this by himself.

But just now he didn't relax for long, he heard a commotion in the crowd, Tang Ningnan stepped forward to look, and found that in the rolling river, there seemed to be a figure, and it was still a child, holding a driftwood, drifting with the flood, and from time to time it was swept into the water by the flood, and then surfaced, the situation was very bad.

"Why are you stunned, go and save people!" Tang Ningnan said to the guard beside him, but the flood is surging, and it is estimated that there will be no one to go down, and there is no guard to step forward in person.

Tang Ningnan only hated herself for being a daughter at this time, and her strength was weak, and she couldn't go into the water to save this child.

At this time, Li Lanshi came forward and said that he could give it a try.

Although Li Lanshi said that she could save people, it was still very dangerous to go directly into the water, Tang Ningnan saw that there was a bridge in front of the child who was hit by the flood, and asked Li Lanshi, Li Lanshi said that the bridge can still be used, but I don't know how long it can last, after all, the bridge is made of wood, soaked in water for so many days, I don't know when it will collapse.

So he thought of such a way, tied Li Lanshi with a rope, and let people pull him on the bridge, while Li Lanshi fell backwards to the bottom of the bridge near the water, stopped the child in front, and pulled him up in the green onion water.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this action, if an inattentive child could not be saved, Li Lanshi herself would fall into the river and lose her life.

The little child was also clever, knowing that Li Lanshi was saving himself, so he let himself float in their direction.

Li Lanshi asked the people above to put themselves down a little more, and as soon as she reached out and fished out the child, she scooped up the child.

Among the victims who stood on the shore and watched, they immediately burst into cheers, clapping their hands and applauding Li Lanshi, and Feng Feihan also secretly praised in his heart.

But this is only the first step, the people on the bridge should immediately pull Li Lanshi and the child up, there is a big tree with branches floating down in the upstream of the flood, it is higher than this wooden bridge, if you don't pull the two up quickly, they will be hit by a tree, and the people on the bridge may be taken down by this tree.

Fortunately, the guards on the bridge were also very effective, and when the trees had not yet arrived, they pulled Li Lanshi up, and the guards and Li Lanshi who was holding the child hurriedly left the wooden bridge.
