656 Dry Work 2
In the end, Ah Yimeng had to watch them leave the county government with pity, she had to sit in the hall, holding her chin and looking out and waiting for them to come back, hey, it's another person, it's too boring!
Xie Chuyao and Qingying went out of the house together, and they also brought more than a dozen families behind them, and walked up the mountain together, they all knew that there was a waterfall on the mountain, and now they heard the five princesses say that they would take them to introduce the water to their winter town, which made them happy as if it was the New Year, although they knew that this task was very arduous, but they were not afraid at all, because the thought of never having to suffer from this kind of life without water from now on, their hearts were full of energy, and this person had hope, It's especially energetic to do things.
But when they came to the mountain, they found that this matter was as difficult as mine, that it was necessary to move the whole mountain, and dig the whole mountain road, so that it was possible to bring the water into the town, which was a bit too arduous, and they all shrugged their heads and wanted to retreat.
"Fifth princess, it's not the villain who said anything, this thing is impossible, you see, let's not talk about how far this place is from the river in our town, let's just say that we can't remove the hill in front of the river, and we can't complete this thing by just a few of us." One of the housekeepers looked at her dejectedly.
Xie Chuyao looked at them seriously and said: "This doesn't have to go over the mountain, this water river can be spared, you see, first dig a forked route from here, let the waterfall divert, and then flow the water all the way down, to the lower realm, we will spare the small hill and pass by the foot of the mountain, after passing the hill and then not far away is the river, when the water flows in, the river can flow in the future, and there will be no drought here." ”
On the other side of the plain, there is also a need to open up another river, so that the flowing water can flow into the other place, and although the nearest town is hundreds of miles away, it is possible if the route is well planned.
She had to go back tonight to find Shangguan Yang to take a good look at the map, and find a route that could leave and merge into the neighboring town in the shortest possible moment.
Qingying also looked at them and said, "Don't worry, I have explored the terrain here, and the water will definitely flow into the river, so if you are willing to do it, this will no longer be a town without water in the future." ”
The ten family members, you look at me, I look at you, they didn't speak for a while, and in the end, a little skinny looking family Ding Wei came to them and said: "Five princesses, this project is huge, there are only ten of us, this has to be done in the Year of the Monkey?" ”
"Have you been happy in your town all these years? Are you worried about the uncomfortable days of running out of water every day? I've been in this town for a few days, and it's only snowed once in the past few days, and it probably snows less and less every year, so what are you going to do then? Yes, some people may say that it is good to move away, and it is possible to live in another town. But are you willing? This is your roots, this is the place where your ancestors have lived for generations, are you willing to give up here? Xie Chuyao made their faces full of sadness one by one, they didn't want to watch the town go to death like this, they didn't want to leave here, they didn't want to leave this place where their ancestors had lived for generations, they didn't want to leave, they didn't want to leave at all!
A determined light flashed on their faces, and after a while, they shouted at Xie Chuyao together: "The fifth princess is right, we don't want to leave this place, we don't want to do it at all, we want to turn this place into a beautiful place, we don't want it to go like desolation step by step." ”
Xie Chuyao looked at their faces full of perseverance, and couldn't help but nod with some emotion and said, "Okay, let's turn this into a beautiful place together, a town with water, fields, and abundant food!" ”
Looking at their faces, she finally felt for a moment that her efforts these days were worth it, although they didn't say it, but they all had that desire in their hearts, the desire to get better and better, the desire to stop worrying about water and food.
So, they began to dig the first day, they only dug a little, and on the second day, they mobilized their relatives and friends to come over to help, as long as it was a strong man, they all came.
Looking at their hard work, Xie Chuyao's heart was full of emotion, in life, you always have to work hard for something.
They lived in the town for ten days, half a month, a month, and after a month, the town changed greatly, not only with five wells with a deep bottom, but also with an endless stream of water, which had not yet flowed into the river in the town, but was halfway through the construction, and in less than two months, the river could be completely connected.
"Chu Yao, go back and rest, you stay here every day these days, don't tire yourself out." Qingying looked at Xie Chuyao, who was standing in front of the water and kept directing, and sometimes moved and digging, and was a little worried that her body would not be able to bear it.
No matter how tired she is, no matter how hard she works, she still has internal strength to protect her body, but she is completely an ordinary person, she runs here every day, and she also helps with the work, she is afraid that she will not be able to bear it.
Xie Chuyao wiped the sweat from her forehead, smiled at her and said, "It's okay, I didn't do any heavy work, I just helped move the soil, you don't have to worry about me." As soon as she said this, she felt dizzy, and hurriedly held on to the iron clutch standing on the side to support her body, so that she did not let herself fall.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing her like this, Qingying knew that she was unwell, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her and asked worriedly.
Xie Chuyao shook his head and said, "I'm fine, it's okay, maybe I got up a little anxious just now, so I feel a little dizzy, you are busy with yours, don't worry about me." As she spoke, she gave her a soothing smile again.
"Don't be reckless, go back and rest, I see that you have eaten less these days, don't you have any appetite? I'll go back tonight and I'll make you some appetizers. The light shadow frowned when she saw her much thinner face.
Xie Chuyao waved his hand and said, "It's really fine, you don't have to go back to rest, but the appetizers you said can be made!" With that, she straightened up and made herself look like she was fine.
It's just that she feels a little tired, there's really nothing, and she thinks she can persevere.
"Sister, sister, look, I finally covered the soil, and this side has become a small mud wall!" Ah Yimeng waved her hand at them not far away, her face was covered with dirt, but her little face was smiling very sweetly.
Xie Chuyao and Qingying saw her like that, and couldn't help but shake their heads helplessly, this guy really couldn't be idle, and she was not allowed to come with her at the beginning, but she didn't expect that her wind and cold would be better for two days and begged to come over to help, they didn't agree, so she went to Ah Ganda to join in the fun, no way, in order to prevent her from messing around, she could only promise to let her come here.
But now that those wells have also been completed, Shang Jingchen and Shangguan Yang are now dealing with the case, Si Hao, Qing Cang, and Ah Ganda have come to help.
With their joining, the work here has also been progressing rapidly.
"Be careful, don't wait for a wrestle." Xie Chuyao shouted at her with a raised voice, hoping that she could pay attention, now that this water source is halfway open, they are now at the foot of the hillock, opening up the waterway little by little.
Ah Yimeng shook his head and said, "No, no, I won't wrestle, sister, I'm careful!" As soon as she said this, she was unsteady on her feet, and she fell on all fours, and the mud covered her body, making her look like a clay figure at the moment.
Ah Ganda was so frightened that he hurriedly threw away his hammer and walked over, picked her up, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" Looking down and seeing her embarrassed, he couldn't help but slightly hook the corners of his mouth.
Ah Yimeng saw his hooked lips in a blink of an eye, and couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "You guy is still laughing at me, hum, I'm so angry!" "She's a clay man, why does he still make fun of her like that?
The mud splashed from her feet shot at Ah Ganda's face, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw it.
Ah Ganda looked at her smile stupidly, and actually laughed along with her.
Xie Chuyao and Qingying looked at the two children who were smiling sweetly, and the corners of their mouths also raised.
"Chu Yao, how long are we going to stay here?" Qingying looked at Ah Yimeng and asked them involuntarily.
Originally, they just passed through here to get snow, but they have been living here for a month, and they don't know what the situation is in Kyoto, but recently, they seem to have something on their minds, and they don't say anything when they ask him, just sullenly.
Xie Chuyao glanced at her and said, "Soon, we'll go back when we get the water source here." After saying that, she reached out again and shook her hand and said, "Qingying, do you want to go back?" ”
"I'm just worried about everything in Kyoto, and I don't know what's going on now? And the queen doesn't know if she's doing well? Qingying expressed the worries in her heart, but did not say Qingcang's problem.
Since Qing Cang didn't say it, then she would treat him as if he was fine.
Xie Chuyao glanced at Chengbai, who was busy, sighed and said, "I know, I also want to go back as soon as possible, but if the things here are not done, I don't worry, Qingying, let's go back after helping things here." "It's only two months at most.
Qingying nodded vigorously, shook her hand and said, "Okay, we'll go back when we're done here!" ”
