The muddy flood was mighty, and there were countless debris floating on the water. Clothes, bedding, weeds, firewood, and the number of dumped animals were mixed with dead domestic animals, and some corpses were interspersed. These corpses were men, women, old and young, because they were hideous and terrifying because they were soaked in water.

Old Lady Qi stood on a high place and watched this scene, her face gloomy and terrifying.

Suddenly, one of the yacha said in a loud voice, "The rain is light, my lord, the rain is light." ”

Hearing this, Governor Fang hurriedly rushed out, and then shouted in surprise: "The rain is really light, light." ”

After a while, the rain stopped.

Old Lady Qi looked at everyone's happy appearance, and said with a calm face: "It's too early to be happy." After two days, the flood waters receded, and there was still much to be done. First, it is necessary to crack down on bandits and maintain public order in all counties and towns; second, the people's preparations for epidemic prevention; Third, we must do a good job in post-disaster reconstruction. ”

Governor Fang nodded again and again when he heard this.

Although the old lady Qi has already made a decision, the Qi family has made great efforts in this matter. Therefore, the prefect is willing to listen to him in many things.

Of course, the most important thing is that Mrs. Qi has a large amount of grain in his hands, and he has to rely on him for disaster relief.

When the heavy rain stopped, everyone saw hope, and the people who had been making trouble stopped making trouble, and they all quieted down. Everyone is waiting for the flood waters to recede and then return to their homes.

Old Lady Gu was uneasy, avoiding everyone and asking Qingshu: "If this rain really stops, won't it rain again?" ”

Qingshu nodded and said, "I remember that the heavy rain stopped at the end of the month, and then it didn't rain again." ”

She didn't remember many days, only that it stopped at the end of the month. It was a few days before they moved back to Peach Blossom Village. At that time, I was patronizing and sanitation, and I didn't pay attention to the outside affairs.

The flood waters receded quickly, and the next morning the city of Pingzhou was revealed. Then the people on the Siyuan Mountain began to wear summer clothes.

Qingshu and the Qi family and other people who had houses in Siyuan Mountain did not rush down the mountain in a hurry. Now the bottom of the mountain must be dirty and messy, it is better to stay on the mountain. It's at least clean and safe.

It was only half a day's work, and there was no one on the mountain. The Qi clan who lived in their house also moved back to the Qi family.

Mrs. Qi came over and said to Mrs. Gu, "Sanniang, we will go back to Fuzhou in a few days." ”

Old Lady Gu was stunned: "Why are you so eager to rush back to Fuzhou?" ”

"The whole people of Pingzhou know about your grain storage. Do you think you will have a peaceful life in Pingzhou? Sanniang, we have done what we should do, and we can't do anything if we leave this old bone. The follow-up will be handed over to the government! ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "Don't worry, no one can erase your credit." Even if Governor Fang wanted to do this, the old lady would not agree. ”

Old Madam Gu didn't want to ask for benefits at all, she nodded when she heard the words and said, "Okay." When I go to Taifeng County to see the old man's grave, we will go back to Fuzhou. ”

Mrs. Qi shook her head and said, "Sanniang, you are now everyone's fat sheep. If you want to go to the grave, I will come back with you at the end of the year, it is not suitable now. ”

Old Lady Gu smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

Mrs. Qi looked at Qingshu, who had been silent, and said, "Qingshu, you also go to Fuzhou with us." When you arrive in Fuzhou, you will take a sea boat to the capital. ”

Qingshu knew that staying in Pingzhou would not help much, and the people around him would not allow it. No way, she's too small.

"Okay, let's go to Fuzhou."

Wu Yi'an disagreed: "Qingshu, you want to go to Fuzhou by yourself, I want to stay and help those victims." ”

Qing Shu asked rhetorically: "What can you help the victims?" ”

Wu Yi'an said angrily: "Just after the flood, everywhere must be dirty and messy, I can't do anything else, can't I help bury the corpse and clean the streets." ”

"As long as Uncle Yan agrees, I have no opinion."

How could Uncle Yan agree: "Girl, when the time comes, let Hou Wu and them stay to help those disaster victims, you should follow Miss Lin to Fuzhou!" ”

Wu Yi'an was so angry that he died.

Unfortunately, the plan could not keep up with the changes. On the third day after the flood receded, the Lin family came to report the funeral that Mrs. Lin was dead, and asked Qingshu to rush back to the funeral.

Qing Shu was a little unconvinced when he heard the news, and asked, "Uncle Cheng'an, what's going on?" I went back to see my grandmother last month, and she was quite strong. ”

There is a saying that good people do not live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years. And in her last life, after her death, the old lady was also very tough. Therefore, she really couldn't believe that Mrs. Lin died like this.

Lin Chengan sighed and said, "Before the flood, your grandfather and your second uncle did not return to Taohua Village, and your grandmother was worried and forced your third uncle to find them. At that time, the flood was at the foot of the mountain, how did your third uncle find it? Even if he had this heart, he couldn't get out. Your grandmother was in a hurry and fainted. Fortunately, your third uncle saved up a ginseng and used that ginseng to hang her life. Let her survive until the flood waters recedes, and she will go to see your grandfather and second uncle for the last time. ”

Qingshu sighed and said, "Then you wait, I'll change my clothes and go with you." ”

My grandmother passed away, and I didn't know about it. Now they are all coming to the door to inform, Qingshu will definitely not be able to go back.

Mrs. Qi came over when she got the news, and she said to Qingshu: "I will go back to Fuzhou with your grandmother tomorrow." After the funeral is over, you will also hurry to Fuzhou. ”

Mrs. Gu was reluctant and said, "How can I rest assured that Qingshu will stay in Pingzhou alone, and we will go to Fuzhou together after Qingshu attends the funeral." ”

Mrs. Qi said: "If you leave Pingzhou Qingshu, you will be safe, on the contrary, she will be in danger if you stay here." At this time, food is life, and everyone is staring at you with so much food in your hand. ”

"But I've already handed over this grain to the government."

Mrs. Qi said, "They don't believe it. And they're going to catch Qingshu and force you to give them food, don't you want to try to get food for them? ”

Wu Yi'an asked with some doubts: "Grandma Gu has already donated food, and they will know when the government provides disaster relief, why don't you believe it?" ”

Mrs. Qi glanced at Yi An and said, "Because of Sanniang's warning and the government's notice in Pingzhou, most of the people have stored food in their hands. For the other places that have been affected, the exact situation is not yet known. If the situation is more serious than that of Pingzhou, the Chin Cha will definitely have to requisition this batch of grain. Therefore, these food victims may not be able to eat. When the time comes, the hungry victims may take their anger out on her. ”

And this is also the reason why she asked Mrs. Gu to return to Fuzhou in a hurry.

Wu Yi'an said: "Even if the grain is really requisitioned, it is what Qin Cha did and what does Grandma Gu have to do?" ”

Qingshu said in a hoarse voice: "If you are hungry to a certain point, you can even eat people, so how can you care about this." ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu sighed bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll go back to Fuzhou with you tomorrow." Qingshu, you must pay attention to safety during this time, and you can't be separated from the guards. When your grandmother's first seven years have passed, go back to Fuzhou immediately. ”

"Okay."

Wu Yi'an patted his chest and said, "Grandma Gu, don't worry, I will protect Qingshu." ”
