Chapter 53: Protecting the Calf
Everyone had different thoughts but had the same thought, that is, waiting to see Su Rongrong make a fool of himself. The sound underground is wrong, maybe Su Rongrong dug a well and dug something that shouldn't be moved.
"What did I say, don't do porcelain work without diamonds, it's not good now." Someone in the crowd shouted loudly, and the people also looked puzzled one by one, waiting for Su Rongrong to give an explanation.
Su Rongrong also felt that something was wrong in her heart, this voice sounded familiar, and there was a guess in her mind, but she didn't dare to be completely sure.
"Do you want to keep digging down?" The people who were digging the well asked Su Rongrong, but Su Rongrong just wanted to answer but was preempted. The person who took the lead was the middle-aged man just now.
I saw the man shouting loudly: "You must continue to dig down, this sound is the sound of underground water, there is water under the ground!" The tone was very firm, and the people around him were also boiling.
There's water, there's water! Everyone is excited, and now that there is a drought, water is the hope of everything. The middle-aged man must have been a persuasive old craftsman in the village before, and many people believed his words, saying that if there is water, there is hope for water.
Su Rongrong also suspected that it was the sound of groundwater just now, but he didn't dare to be sure, and now the old well digger also came out to explain, presumably it was the sound of groundwater. Sure enough, you can't go wrong with a golden finger.
As long as there is water, everyone is happy, and the people who dig the well are also motivated, and the speed of sinking the well is accelerated, and the people also spontaneously join the team of sinking the well.
The old well digger saw that Su Rongrong was a person with real skills, and his heart was full of admiration. People always have infinite admiration for people with real skills, and the old well digger had an idea in his heart, wanting to worship Su Rongrong as a teacher.
"Madame, please accept my worship from above, and I want to worship you as a teacher and learn the art of digging wells, I don't know if you are willing to accept me as an apprentice." The man saluted respectfully towards Su Rongrong.
Su Rongrong was frightened by this style, and hurriedly replied to him, "I'm just a layman, I can't be called someone else's master, you get up first." ”
"We all need to continue to learn, constantly enrich our knowledge, I am young, and my experience is not as rich as yours, I still want to learn from you." Su Rongrong politely rejected the other party's desire to apprentice, she really felt that she was not a person with outstanding talents, she just relied on her golden finger and modern memory.
The well digger didn't have any special reaction, he felt that it was normal for the other party to be unwilling to accept apprentices. I've already learned some knowledge today, and it's worth the money.
"But I have something to ask for, I don't know if you want to." Su Rongrong thought about it again and again, but still brought it up. "I'm going back to the county government to report the progress of the well sinking to the county order, can you help me take care of things here?"
The well digger readily agreed, and told Su Rongrong to let her leave with peace of mind, just leave it to him here, and make them satisfied.
After Su Rongrong entrusted the matter of supervising the well sinking to the well digger, he followed Wen Gong back to the county office. As soon as they entered the door of the county office, Su Rongrong and the others went directly to the county order.
The county magistrate was leaning on the chaise longue at this time, drinking tea and eating pastries comfortably, without the slightest sad face before. Wen Gong looked at the comfort of the county order, and couldn't help but think of Su Rongrong's hard work, and he was a little dissatisfied.
"The water source is already in sight, and now the well is already being dug, and I believe that water will be available soon." Su Rongrong reported to the county order, and the other party leaned on the chaise longue and smiled.
The county magistrate is a shrewd person, and now Su Rongrong and a few people have helped him find a water source for the county, and he himself is happy to be idle and can be added to the rank of knight, which is really a good thing.
"It's really hard for you two, please continue to work hard and complete this work as soon as possible, so that we can all end up happy." The county magistrate put down a word that was not painful or itchy, expressing his satisfaction and happiness and the certification of their hard work.
This made Wen Gong feel a little uncomfortable, obviously the county order asked them to come over to help, but now it has become his own initiative to do things, and he is willing to be enslaved by him, which is really a bit of a bully.
The small abacus of the county order crackled, he just saw that Su Rongrong was in charge of the matter now, and he wanted to hide and enjoy himself, and then pick up a ready-made credit, which can be described as a beautiful thing.
But Wen Gong had already seen his intentions and ruthlessly dismantled him, "My wife was invited by you to help, not subject to the work of the county government, and now my wife is so eager just because she is kind-hearted and can't bear to see the people suffer, but this is not her responsibility, you must know this." ”
Wen Gong's words did not give the county order any sympathy, and his words came out suddenly, which surprised Su Rongrong and the county order, and they did not react at once.
"It's a bit biased for you to say this, as a parent official here, I naturally do my best to the people, and I also see your wife's enthusiasm and efforts, so naturally I won't treat them badly." The county commander was a little annoyed in his heart, this man really doesn't know what to do.
Su Rongrong was also a little unable to react, she was a little sluggish and didn't know the little abacus in the county order's heart, so she naturally didn't understand what Wen Gong was doing this time.
This person was really sold and paid back to the number of people, Wen Gong looked at Su Rongrong and felt a headache, what should he do if he was not by her side in the future, he didn't know if he was bullied.
"In that case, it's best, my wife, I am distressed, and I also ask the county magistrate to be careful about the matter of water sources, and don't let a woman run around." Wen Gong coldly put down a sentence, and then pushed Su Rongrong away.
After the two left, the county commander lost his temper in the house, and this little villager actually dared to ride on his head, was his tone threatening himself? It's just a village man, who dares to point fingers at himself, and asks you to help because he looks up to you, and he is not satisfied.
The county magistrate fell in the house for a while before he calmed down, Wen Gong's words seemed to him to be **naked contempt, what should he do, when can he let him speak?
At this moment, Wen Gong didn't know that he had offended the county order, and the county order had already recorded his hatred and regarded him as a thorn in the flesh. Maybe he didn't care and didn't take the reaction of the county order seriously. Wen Gong's heart just felt that Su Rongrong couldn't be bullied, she was stupidly supported by others, so he felt uncomfortable.
He wanted to stay by her side to protect her, so that she would no longer be bullied by others, it was just such a simple wish. It's really funny to think about the agreement made three months ago, and I never thought that I would regret it later.
