The next day, the sun was rising, and Liu Yong's carriage was ready. There are three troikas, one for Liu Yong and Yun'er, one for Lin Qingrou and the two children, and one for Sun Erniang.

After bidding farewell to the teary-eyed Zhang Xixi, Ouyang Lanlan and Yingying, as well as Yue Peng and Chen An's convoy, began their journey to the west.

This time, Liu Yong didn't bring so much logistical support, only a troika and two dozen soldiers, who were there to protect Lin Qingrou. Because Lin Qingrou always has to go back to Lin'an Mansion.

Seeing her parents again, Lin Qingrou was a little excited, but she frowned when she thought of the danger of Liu Yong going to sea.

This trip, they weren't here to see the scenery. The car runs very fast, but you still have to rest when you encounter a city or village at night. The main thing is that Lin Qingrou and her two sons want to rest. so as not to make them sick from the fatigue of the journey.

And Liu Yong is not bad for a while.

He kept a very low profile on this trip, after all, he was no longer an important minister of the Great Song Dynasty. I won't bother the state yamen. But every time he went to a state capital, he still had to inspect his business. It's just a simple one, and you can leave after the inspection.

Fortunately, there were no major mistakes in the stores and sauce shops along the way, which still made him worry-free.

Just like last time, it rained again just after Qianzhou.

Liu Yong and the others braved the drizzle until they arrived at Chongqing Mansion before resting.

The rain in Chongqing was heavier. They had no choice but to stay for the time being. Fortunately, Chongqing is a big city, and the security of life is still good.

Liu Yong wanted to wait for the rain to stop before leaving, but after waiting for several days and not seeing the rain stop, he ordered to set off directly.

The farther west, the heavier the rain became.

In the carriage, Liu Yong had a bad premonition that there might be another flood in Meizhou City.

He guessed correctly, when he entered Qingshen County, the scene in front of him was so similar. The city gates are still full of refugees, and the better place than in a few years is that there are tents this time, but there are still many people standing in the rain. After a long time, you will definitely get sick.

Liu Yong did not enter Qingshen County this time, because he was not an official now, and he had no right to command the county. He turned the wagon around and went back to the village of Hekou.

Unexpectedly, this time Hekou Village was more seriously affected, because Hekou Village is on the downstream edge of Simeng Water. Although there is a levee upstream, it may have been washed away by the flood, so this time it was much more severely damaged than the last time. The village was knee-high with water, and the villagers fled for their lives.

My old house is pretty good. This made Liu Yong feel very lucky. The terrain of the Liu family's old house is relatively high, and the drainage channels around are well designed.

There was only shallow water in his house. When he entered the courtyard, the caretaker of the house was tidying up the courtyard. I didn't know Liu Yong when I saw him coming.

But there is one person I know, and that person turned out to be Hu Er's subordinate. Naturally, he knew Liu Yong. The man asked the five people from the nursing home to salute Liu Yong together. Liu Yong told them to get up and asked them about the flood.

The man said that Qingshen County was severely affected, especially Hekou Village and several nearby villages. After listening, Liu Yong nodded and asked about the situation of several villages that were severely affected that year. The nursing home replied that those villages were fine this year.

In order to thank Liu Yong for his generosity, those places specially built temples for Liu Yong. It is said that this time it was Liu Yong's statue that appeared, so their places were not ravaged by the flood.

Liu Yong felt funny in his heart after listening to the narration of the nursing home, if you are really so useful, if you let the entire Great Song Dynasty build a temple for me and make a golden body, then you will not be afraid of floods.

Lin Qingrou and the children were tired, and Liu Yong instructed the nursing home to quickly clean up the room for Lin Qingrou to rest and prepare dinner. They're going to spend the night here.

The nursing home said that the rooms were cleaned up every day, and they were afraid that when the big officials would come to live.

Liu Yong nodded with satisfaction.

The nursing home also told Liu Yong that they usually only live in the concierge room, not even in the wing room, which was explained by Brother Hua Lang. And I clean it every day. Originally, there were a few old mothers here, but they went to find their relatives because of the water.

Although she is married to Liu Yong, Lin Qingrou has never lived in this house. And her two sons have never lived in it, but Lin Qingrou knows that this is the old mansion of the Liu family. The ancients attached great importance to the old house, because it carries the honor and disgrace of a surname.

And Yun'er is very familiar with this place. Even down to the grass and trees.

Because there is a special person to manage it, it hasn't changed much even now. As soon as she returned here, Yun'er had a natural sense of intimacy, and it really felt like she was home.

Since she was rescued by Liu Yong and swore to serve Liu Yong for the rest of her life, she has regarded this place as her home.

At this time, Yun'er personally took Lin Qingrou to the room in the main house to let her and her son rest. Lin Qingrou was really tired, and she fell asleep after learning that Meizhou City had not been flooded.

Liu Yong asked Su Erniang to go to rest as well, and Su Erniang went. And he himself went out to see the water situation, Yun'er wanted to follow, but he didn't let him, because Yun'er was also tired. He was a man, he had better energy than a woman, and the main thing was that he cared about the affected groups.

Before going, first of all, he instructed a small nursing home to go to Meizhou City to find Lin Hualang and ask him to bring money to help the victims. At this time, it was the village of Kawaguchi and several surrounding villages that were affected. Although the area of relief is not large, these villages are all around Qingshen Prefecture and have a large population.

The little guy immediately ran away.

After that, Liu Yong went out, he wanted to go into the village to see the specific situation of the disaster. But there was no one in the village anymore, but there was a horse in front of the family. It's strange, people are gone, how can there be horses?

This horse has only reins and no saddle, is dressed in maroon, is tall and long-legged, but also majestic. The horse stood bored in the knee-high water, and when he saw Liu Yong, he immediately neighed at him.

Liu Yong thought it was funny, so he walked over, and it was strange that the horse actually lowered his head and made a gesture of goodwill to Liu Yong. Liu Yong patted the horse's head, picked up the reins and turned over on the horse.

Isn't it just right, he thought, ride it around to see if there is any siege to rescue.

Thinking about it, he gently clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and the horse moved forward slowly.

Liu Yong checked the entire village and saw no living people, not even dead people. Just saw some collapsed houses. He felt glad that these people were running fast. Now even if it rains in front of the gate of Qingshen County, it is better than death!

In Hekou Village, where there was no besieged group, Liu Yong went to Lijiazhuang, which was four miles away. The terrain of Lijiazhuang is a little low, and there are no people in the village anymore, because the water has flooded the eaves. There are several corpses on the ticket early on the water. The main picture looks lifeless and a little scary.
