Chapter 676: The construction site is in full swing
Chapter 676 The construction site is in full swing
Wu Meiniang sat on the toilet, raised her hand and touched her throat, feeling that her throat was indescribably uncomfortable, very dry, and wanted to drink water. She said with great difficulty: "My throat is dry, and I always want to drink water." Last night when you fell asleep, I woke up several times, and I got up to drink water, and my stomach was so swollen that I was still dreaming. ”
Li Zhi sat up slowly, through the curtain, and asked, "Is it because you sweat too much, that's why you're thirsty?" ”
Wu Meiniang's voice was obviously rattling, and it was extremely hoarse, and her voice sounded very uncomfortable and unpleasant. She said: "It seems that I haven't been out of the house since you came, and you still toss me vigorously, sweating all over the body, I am uncomfortable, I have to drink two drops of water to make up for it!" ”
Li Zhi sighed and thought, "Sweat a drop, you need to make up two drops of water?" Is there such a statement? Gotta ask if you are sick! He asked again: "What dream did Mei Niang have last night, did you dream of me, tell me about it!" ”
After asking this sentence, he hurriedly said again: "Don't say it, your voice is not strong, it is better to say less, so as not to be more uncomfortable!" ”
Wu Meiniang still said: "I dreamed that I was walking by the river in the summer, the river was flowing, I wanted to squat down to drink, and I woke up as soon as I squatted, and then I poured water to drink!" ”
Li Zhi began to get dressed and said, "That's thirsty, I sometimes get thirsty in the middle of the night, and I'm prone to such dreams, and when I get too thirsty, I wake up." Sometimes I think about the dream of running around at night, but I can't find the toilet! ”
Wu Meiniang hummed, and said: "After drinking water, I still can't sleep well, and I started dreaming again when I closed my eyes, because I encountered a drought in my hometown, and the well water dried up, and I couldn't find water to drink anywhere." Later, I woke up again, got up and drank water, and then I dreamed that my brother was abusing me and locked me in a small dark room and wouldn't give me water to drink! ”
She said a lot in one breath, her throat became more uncomfortable, her voice became more hoarse, and she stopped talking and stopped talking.
Li Zhi put on his shoes and socks, got up from the bed, looked at Wu Meiniang, who was convenient behind the curtain, and saw that the beautiful woman was wearing a cloak, although she was unkempt, did not take care of her makeup, and looked lazy, but he liked it very much, and the more he looked at it, the more he loved it!
Wu Meiniang spat at him, not allowing him to see his convenience, Li Zhi smiled and said, "I'll bring you face washing water, we are a bad couple, we have to do everything by ourselves, and we don't want others to serve you." ”
As he spoke, he took the basin out of the house, but found that there was no well in the yard, so he had to sigh and think: "It's really not easy to be a bad husband, it's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and my strong man is suffering from water without a well, how can I get water without a well?" ”
He came to the gate of the courtyard with a basin, and wanted to ask someone to bring him water, but the gate of the courtyard was only opened with a small crack, and he saw that there was a full set of toiletries outside, and even a change of clothes, and breakfast was prepared, all of which were placed at the door, and there was no one else waiting outside the door, quietly.
Li Zhiyile thought to himself: "Hey, it seems that this husband and wife are not very difficult to be, what do you want, and you don't need me to make a sound, you can send them all." ”
He opened the courtyard door and brought in all the same things, and then closed the door again and moved the things into the house again. At this time, Wu Meiniang had already cleaned up and dressed neatly. She knew in her heart that it was impossible for her to stay in the house with Li Zhi and kiss me and me today, so she had to show her strong support for Li Zhi and make Li Zhi feel that she was a good wife, at least better than other wives!
After Li Zhi entered the house, he smiled and said: "Lady, you see, you have worked hard for your husband, and finally got food and clothing, is the lady still satisfied?" ”
Wu Meiniang smiled hurriedly and said, "Full ...... Meaning! She struggled to speak, almost speechless.
Li Zhiqi said: "Mei Niang, what's wrong with your throat, I'll go and call Wuxian to come and let him show you." He cares about Wu Meiniang, when the two are in love, the wife of the dregs is sick, and of course he, the husband of the dregs, has to care more about it.
But Wu Meiniang grabbed him, shook her head and said, "No, no...... Don't go. She pointed to her throat and said with difficulty, "It's okay, don't go...... Go call my uncle, I'm pretty good, really...... If it doesn't work, go again...... Call him! He shook his hands so hard that he could barely speak a complete sentence.
Li Zhi looked at her throat, but there was no redness and swelling, and said, "Maybe, maybe you need to moisten your throat, right?" I saw that there was no disease today, so I asked him to prescribe medicine to moisten his throat, or I would like to bring you some fresh fruits, and it is estimated that he will be fine soon. ”
Judging from the appearance, Li Zhi couldn't see anything wrong with Wu Meiniang, and felt that he could raise it, and he was embarrassed to say to Wang Ping'an because of this, in case it was tossed out by himself, how embarrassed it would be to toss Wu Meiniang out of it!
And Wu Meiniang didn't dare to let Wang Ping'an know, as long as she could get through, she didn't want to listen to Wang Ping'an's ramblings. Wang Ping'an doesn't necessarily say how he is, but he wants to persuade Li Zhi to take care of his body and stay away from women, then wouldn't she be bad, Li Zhi won't stay in Gyeongju for too long, he can stay with him for a while longer, it's a moment!
The general thoughts of the two of them both felt that it was not good to talk to Wang Ping'an about it. Li Zhi said: "Mei Niang, can you eat?" ”
Wu Meiniang nodded, feeling that it didn't seem to affect her diet. Li Zhi took out the breakfast, Wu Meiniang tried to let Li Zhi live a different life, she pulled Li Zhi, opened the door of the house, and the two sat on the threshold to drink porridge, and deliberately drank so loudly!
Wu Meiniang felt that her throat was still very uncomfortable, but she tried her best not to say it, and Li Zhi was extremely happy when she lived this kind of farm life for the first time.
Li Zhi said with a smile: "Sitting on the threshold and drinking porridge, it really tastes sweet, if only this kind of day could be spent every day." ”
Wu Meiniang smiled at him, but did not speak. After the two of them finished breakfast, Wu Meiniang waited for Li Zhi to wash, changed into clean clothes, and sent him to the door, just like an ordinary peasant woman, sending her husband to work in the field, and sending him out of the small courtyard.
After Li Zhi left, Wu Meiniang closed the door, touched her neck, and thought: "What's wrong with me, my head is dizzy, my palms are hot, could it be that I get a cold from the wind?" But it's not like it! ”
Li Zhi went out, only walked a dozen steps away from the small courtyard, and a big man came out to greet him. The big man is Ouyang Li, he has been waiting outside, and when he saw Li Zhi, he thought: "It's really up, I thought he was the same as yesterday, but at noon, he didn't come out!" ”
Ouyang Li accompanied the smiling face, stepped forward and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, did you sleep well last night?" ”
Li Zhi hummed and said, "Okay." Woke up without illness? ”
Ouyang Li hurriedly said: "Get up, and the officials of Gyeongju are waiting in the front hall, just wait for His Highness to arrive, and immediately go out of the city to inspect the construction site." ”
Li Zhi said hello again and said: "Being diligent in the king's affairs without illness is very good and worthy of praise." With his hands behind his back, he set up the prince's shelf and walked slowly to the front hall.
Front office. The officials had already arrived, and the room was crowded with Manden. Wang Ping'an told them that the prince would definitely go to inspect the project today, so everyone was ready last night, and wrote down the work they were responsible for as a note and hid it in their sleeves, as long as the prince inspected him, he could report it, otherwise he would not know anything, and then he would be sent to Maling County to "study", which would be fatal!
Li Zhi entered the lobby, and the officials hurriedly saluted. Wang Ping'an followed the etiquette and asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, did you have a good rest last night?" ”
Li Zhi thought to himself: "Why do you ask this sentence, it makes it seem like I'm still in the East Palace." He hummed and said, "Okay." Ready for everyone? If you're ready, let's go! ”
Naturally, no one would say that they were not ready, everyone hugged Li Zhi out of the house, everyone rode horses, and there was no one in the car. All the way out of the city gate, rushed to the construction site outside the city.
As soon as he arrived outside the city, he couldn't walk two miles, Li Zhi snorted and said to Wang Ping'an: "No disease, there is a lively scene here, more people than digging the hibiscus pond back then!" ”
Wang Ping'an said with a smile: "This is the common people themselves doing their own work, of course everyone who can come, not to mention that we are still in charge of food!" ”
They came near the Daliang River, and at this time the canal along the Daliang River had been almost repaired and was extending to the people's villages. Everywhere Li Zhi looked, there were people working with shovels and shovels, digging the earth. As Wang Ping'an said, the people are working for themselves. Work for yourself, naturally you can't be lazy, the people are sweating profusely, full of energy, the whole construction site is in full swing, from time to time there is the sound of trumpets, and the singing of the people!
Li Zhidao: "The people's hearts are available, the people work so hard, and the officials work so hard, it seems that after Gyeongju, the wealth will not be inferior to Guanzhong!" ”
The officials were very happy when they heard the prince's praise, and it seemed that all the hard work of these many days had been compensated at this moment. At the beginning, they blamed Wang Ping'an for calling them as donkeys, but now everyone feels that they are too sorry for the prince to be donkeys, and they have to be donkeys, horses, and cows, and if they don't tire themselves out of breath, then they are ashamed of the word hard work!
Wang Ping'an rushed to the crowd and said loudly: "The prince has inspected here, and the villagers have come to pay respects!" As he spoke, he opened his hands, palms upward, and raised them vigorously to make a gesture for everyone to cheer!
The people immediately cheered, put down the tools in their hands, and ran to the prince together, shouting the prince in their mouths, as if a hungry man had seen the steamed buns, and everyone's eyes lit up and they ran over!
Such a lively scene is comparable to Li Zhi accepting the cheers of the people at Chengtianmen! All of a sudden, Li Zhizhi was full of pride, as if he had done so much good for the people, so he got such cheers, how proud he was, how proud he was!
Wang Ping'an turned his horse's head, returned to Li Zhi's side, took a step back, and let Li Zhi accept the cheers of the people.
Once the hand was arched, it could not be put down, and Li Zhi kept returning the salute to the people. And after the people squeezed over, they reached out to touch Li Zhi's boots, and the person who touched them shouted loudly: "I touched the soles of His Royal Highness the Prince's boots, I touched them, and I won't wash my hands in the future......"
