Zhang Cuicui also followed Yu Langyan into the carriage, as for Liu Jianxi, he chose to continue to follow Fang Hongwei's side, and he also wanted to go to the capital to meet the world.

Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi watched their carriage leave, Yao Yuran breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, she thought to herself, now, life should be able to return to peace.

"Lady, why don't we open an embroidery workshop in Micheng?" Zhao Hengzhi was inspired by Yu Langyan, and he also wanted to make a fortune by relying on the embroidery workshop.

"Come on, just the poor land of Micheng, do you still think that the people can buy new clothes every day? Didn't you hear such a nonsense? Three years of new and three years of old, and another three years of sewing and mending! Yao Yuran snorted coldly.

It's not that she hasn't considered Micheng, but according to the living conditions of Micheng, no one is willing to spend money on clothes.

"It's true! I'm so naïve, but I'm still smart and far-sighted. Zhao Hengzhi smiled flatteringly, and admired Yao Yuran from the bottom of his heart.

"Let's be realistic, isn't there still a halogen stall? It's good that we can start a halogen stall first! Yao Yuran wrinkled his eyebrows and said. It's not that she has a low vision, but she sees reality clearly.

In the following days, it turned out to be torrential rain, and the sky of Micheng was shrouded in dark clouds, and there was no trace of sunlight in sight. The rain is about to flood this rice city.

Yao Yuran's marinade stall had to be temporarily closed. Yao Yuran sat in the room, holding her chin and looking worriedly at the crackling raindrops outside the window. I don't know when this rainstorm will stop. If the rain continues, I'm afraid that Micheng will flood.

"Miss, I heard my master say that every July and January is the rainstorm season in Micheng, do you remember the last time we came to Micheng? It's also a flood, it's not good, it's going to be a flood this time......" Xing Yu shook her head and sighed, she handed a cup of tea to Yao Yuran's hand.

Yao Yuran couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, if there was a flood, the consequences would be unimaginable, I remember coming to Micheng before, I saw someone digging tree roots on the side of the road, and some victims were forced to stop the road and became robbers......

In the past few days, the night market in Micheng has been closed, and even the vegetable garden in the mountain behind the yamen has been destroyed by the torrential rain. Fortunately, Yao Yuran ordered someone to pick the vegetables and store them in the kitchen, otherwise the loss would be even more heavy.

"Alas, no wonder many people are reluctant to come to Micheng as a county magistrate, in this poor and remote area, there are floods every year, who would be happy to come here?" Yao Yuran couldn't help but sigh like this.

Thinking that at the beginning, Zhao Hengzhi wanted to buy it, and the official was still at a loss, at that time, someone took the initiative to sell the post of county commander. This is why Zhao Hengzhi got such a bargain.

At the moment, if the flood is big, I am afraid that when the time comes, Zhao Hengzhi will have to settle the villagers and prevent the plague, and arrange the disaster relief silver taels allocated by the imperial court.

"Lady, girl!" At this time, Zhao Hengzhi ran in from outside, looking panicked, as if something big had happened.

"What's wrong? What's the alarm? Yao Yuran asked hurriedly, her gaze falling on Zhao Hengzhi's panicked face.

Zhao Hengzhi breathed a sigh of relief before he said: "Just now Lu Tian told me that the big locust tree in Micheng, which has grown for hundreds of years, was washed away by the rain and fell down, crushing the leg of a sixty-year-old man!" ”

"Huh? There is such a thing! Yao Yuran opened his mouth wide in surprise. On this rainy day, why didn't the old man hide at home, but ran out......

"Lady, you're smarter, let's go and see with me!" Zhao Heng's fire was in a hurry. Saving people is like fighting a fire, he can't wait to pick up Yao Yuran and immediately fly to the scene of the crime.

Yao Yuran couldn't smile bitterly, did Zhao Hengzhi regard her as a living immortal with vast magical powers? I want to rely on her to solve everything. She is just an ordinary delicate woman, powerless, and she can't solve the problem alone.

She hurriedly said: "Eh, this has nothing to do with whether Cong is not smart or not, I think it is better to bring a few more tall officials over and lift the tree together!" ”

Yao Yuran followed Zhao Hengzhi's footsteps and walked out of the gate of the yamen together.

The rain was pouring down, and the ground was overflowing. As soon as Yao Yuran went out, her lotus shoes were soaked by the rain, and her feet were like a stone or two tied to them, heavy.

The most terrifying thing is that this Daye country is quite backward, even the roads are dirt roads, and when the water comes, the entire road surface is mud. Yao Yuran misses his life in modern times, but there are cement roads, and no matter how bad he is, he has a car.

You can still drive to the destination, although there are carriages here, but Zhao Hengzhi told Yao Yuran that the water level is too high, even if there is a carriage, it will inevitably fall into a quagmire.

Yao Yuran's heart was full of sorrow, so he had to step on the dirty mud, wade through these dirt roads washed by the rain, and move forward with difficulty.

Even with an umbrella, rain still flew in from outside the oil-paper umbrella, and Yao Yuran's hair and clothes were drenched by the rain. But she didn't care about any of this, she just wanted to get to her destination quickly.

After walking for nearly half an hour, Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi came to their destination. Sure enough, the big locust tree, which had been the vicissitudes of life, had fallen to the ground, and its branches were luxuriant, and the leaves were covered with dirty mud and rain.

"Oops, it hurts, it hurts the little old man!" Beneath the thick trunk, a weak voice sounded.

Yao Yuran followed the prestige and saw an old man with white hair and wrinkles on his face, and frowned. His thighs were just pinned down by the trunk of the tree, and he couldn't move.

It seems that the thief hurts, tsk, Yao Yuran couldn't help but sweat for the old man, but the old man's leg had been crushed by the trunk and fractured.

"Right there, let's lift the tree together!" Yao Yuran shouted at everyone. Zhao Hengzhi, Lu Tian, Lu Hai, and the officials brought out of the yamen all surrounded him.

Yao Yuran looked around, she thought that it was not enough to just lift the trunk of the tree, and if she wanted to save people safely, she had to have a clear division of labor.

"Lu Tian, Lu Hai, you are responsible for lifting the roots of the tree, and Ah Da and Ah Er, you are responsible for lifting the trunk. And you two servant brothers, who are responsible for carrying the branches here! Yao Yuran made arrangements.

"What about me, lady?" Zhao Hengzhi pointed at himself.

Yao Yuran pursed her thin lips and said, "You stand next to me and shout slogans." Then they moved the tree from the right side, so they could get the man out! ”

She felt that Zhao Hengzhi was less useful than her, that small body, if she was not pressed by the big tree, she would be Amitabha, how could she lift the tree thicker than her waist!

After everyone was clearly divided, they all stood up and waited for Yao Yuran to give orders. Yao Yuran rolled up her sleeves, and she didn't care about holding an umbrella, she rolled up her sleeves and shouted, "Everyone in place, start!" One, two, one, two! ”

They held back their strength, and according to Yao Yuran's plan, they carried the big locust tree together and moved to the road on the right.

"Everyone, use some force! Come on! Come on! Zhao Hengzhi shouted red-faced beside him, and Yao Yuran also desperately shouted the slogan: "One, two, one, two!" ”

"It's coming! Soon! Zhao Hengzhi shouted excitedly, his eyes shining brightly.

"Boom!" There was a flash of thunder and lightning overhead, a deafening thunder, and everyone was startled by the thunder, but thankfully, they didn't let go. Otherwise, it may cause more damage to the old man.

"It worked!" When Yao Yuran saw that the big locust tree was moved to the open space by them, her tense nerves finally relaxed.

"Thank you, thank you for saving me! If you don't! I'm probably going to die here! The old man burst into tears and thanked everyone.

Zhao Hengzhi waved his hand and said: "It's just a trivial matter, why worry about it!" Seeing people rescued, he was indescribably happy.

Yao Yuran bent down and said softly to the old man: "Uncle, are you okay?" Can you stand up? If I can, I'll help you up. ”

The old man moved his legs, and the pain made him frown, and he shouted desolately: "No! It hurts so much! I can't go up! ”

Yao Yuran made a look, Lu Tian and Lu Hai immediately understood, they hurriedly walked over, one lifted the old man's feet, and the other raised the old man's hands.

"Yes, yes, send the old man to Xu Langzhong, he must have a way to save him!" Zhao Hengzhi hurriedly shouted at them.

Yao Yuran tightened her brows, she looked at the pouring rain, the collapse of this big tree was just the beginning, and more natural and man-made disasters might happen next.

At this time, Zhao Hengzhi picked up the big red oil-paper umbrella on the ground, and slowly walked to Yao Yuran's side, he held the umbrella and blocked the ups and downs outside for Yao Yuran.

"Lady, you're all wet, go back quickly." Zhao Hengzhi clenched Yao Yuran's slightly cool hand.

Yao Yuran bowed slightly, she and Zhao Hengzhi walked side by side, and walked back in the direction of the yamen.

When they returned to the yamen, Ye Junjun's eyes widened in surprise and exclaimed, "Sister Yao, what's wrong with you?" Why did you get drenched in the rain? It's like a chicken in soup. ”

"We went to save people, the biggest old locust tree in Micheng fell, and it weighed down a person, we ...... We went to save people. Yao Yuran was so cold that he couldn't even speak.

Xing Yu hurriedly took out a cloak from the room and draped it on Yao Yuran's body.

Yao Yuran realized that she was shivering with cold, and she couldn't wait to take a hot bath immediately, she trembled her lips and said, "Hot water, help me prepare hot water, I want to take a bath." ”

"Yes, Miss!" Xing Yu answered, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen to prepare hot water for Yao Yuran.

With the mist lingering, Yao Yuran shed his wet clothes, raised his long white legs, and stepped into the warm clear water. She could hear the sound of bean-sized rain crashing against the roof.
