"Why are you?" Faced with Meng Zhan, he refused to let them find someone. Zhang Qingting burst into tears, anxious and angry, "You didn't let us save Fluttershy and Second Master He, that is knowing that they have horses and someone else is going to save them, so it should be fine." But what about my Xianggong and Li Gong? They don't have horses, they don't have anything! Two big living people were washed away by the water, how could they not be rescued? ”

"Then let me ask you, what can you do to save it?" Meng Zhan rushed in front of her, "Do you know how to swim?" Do you know where they are being washed up now? You don't know anything! Mrs. Zhao, I have always respected you as a smart person, can't you think of it? Even if you go, it's just in vain! Now that the rain is so heavy, maybe, I will take my life in vain! ”

"But we can't sit here and die without help! He's our family! Even if we know that we are going to die, can we ignore it? ”

"But if you go out and encounter some accidents, and he comes back safely, what should you do? What to do! ”

Meng Zhan's voice was already hoarse and couldn't withstand such a toss, so he was completely dumb, coughing dryly and unable to say a word. Gasped for a long time. He barely calmed the breath in his chest, coughed vigorously and ordered, "Even if you want to go, it's not for you to go!" Qingsong, you immediately take these two villagers to Teacher Li's house, and ask them to organize the family to go out to rescue. Remember to pay attention to safety, and never let anyone save people! ”

"Master! But you ......" Qingsong hesitated and did not want to leave him.

Meng Zhan pointed to the ground, "I'm right here, and I won't leave a single step!" Unless the whole of Zaranburg is going to die, nothing will happen to me! The two teachers Zhao and Li are here to save their lives, if they can't be saved, how can we explain to the fathers and villagers here? Don't delay, go! ”

Qing Song took the order and hurried away.

Zhang Qingting couldn't cry himself. Xiucai, don't let anything happen to you! If you want to have a long or short life, I will never forgive you in my life!

There are some things that you don't feel when you're around, and when you want to lose them, you feel their preciousness. Zhang Qingting couldn't imagine that if there was no Zhao Chengcai, how would his life continue in the future?

She has just made up her mind, and the beautiful blueprint for the future of her life has suddenly turned into a castle in the air, and such an ending is something she can't accept no matter what!

Zhao Yulian cried and helped Zhang Qingting in, "Sister-in-law, the eldest brother is a good person, and he is in the water to save talents, God will not be so ruthless." Take him! Look at your face, go in and rest! ”

"Girl!" Zhang Facai is also in tears, "The son-in-law is not a short-lived appearance!" He's going to be fine, so you can rest in peace for a while! God, you can bless our family and Fluttershy! ”

Zhang Facai knelt down and kowtowed to God, wiped the rain mixed with tears on his face, and beckoned the family to continue to help the victims, "Let's do more good deeds and accumulate more blessings for Fluttershy!" ”

Meng Zhan was so moved that his eyes were red, these surnames were all the most ordinary people at the bottom, if they were weekdays, he would definitely not even look down on them from the corners of his eyes. But at this moment, look at them, no one asks about remuneration, no one asks about fame and fortune, and all the families who can free up their hands to help have come out to help spontaneously. Whatever you need to use, as long as you can get it at home, you can take it out selflessly.

Surname. With their most simple feelings, they gave this aristocratic prince the most vivid lesson, and also had a profound impact on his life.

Zhang Qingting originally followed Zhao Yulian back like a walking corpse, but when he heard Zhang Facai's words, he grabbed a life-saving straw like a drowning man, "That's right! I'm going to do things too! Give them virtue! God won't accept them! ”

She whispered, and out of nowhere, a strong force came from nowhere, turned around and rushed into the rain again, rushing to work. Fill your mind with busy work, and you can't think of anything in your head, and you don't dare to think about anything.

Others saw her with a white face, as if she was crazy, constantly running in the rain, no matter how much she was persuaded.

The rain kept falling, and everywhere was very busy, so she had to go.

It didn't take long for Zhang Qingting to cope with the lack of physical strength even if he had the heart. In the past day, the successive blows have tightened Zhang Qingting's nerves more and more, tense like a string that will break at the touch of a button, and at this time, Zhao Chengcai's sudden disappearance gave her another heavy blow. After working hard for a while, she suddenly felt lightheaded, and fell to the ground, unconscious.

Before falling into that dark swamp, Zhang Qingting's ears could still hear everyone's exclamations and crackling rain in the distance, but after that, he couldn't hear anything.

Before she fell unconscious, there was only one thing in her mind. Zhao Chengcai! You must come back safely!

I don't know how much I fell asleep before Zhang Qingting regained consciousness.

Hurt! It hurts!

It was as if all the muscles and bones of the whole body had been broken, and it was as if they were in a blazing furnace, repeatedly scorched in the red and white flames.

"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! ”

Who's calling in your ears? It took Zhang Qingting a long time to barely lift his heavy eyelids, and the yellow candle flame poured softly into the room, warm and quiet. Outside the window, the rain still hasn't stopped.

Zhang Qingting frowned, closed his eyes again, and rested for a while before he had the strength to open his eyes again.

Zhao Yulan looked at her with tears in her eyes, "It's okay to wake up!" How do you feel now? ”

Zhang Qingting settled down, thought about it, and gradually remembered what happened before. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth, but he felt as if his throat had been roasted dry, and it was uncomfortable to have thousands of knives cutting when he moved, "Ahhh......hh

What time is it now? What about Xianggong? What about Fluttershy? Did they all come back?

Zhao Yulan held her hand and told her the good news first, "Fluttershy and the second master of the He family have been found!" They were washed up on a river beach, and everyone was fine. It's just that now the rain is still falling, and the sky is dark, and the water is urgent. People can't get by, they can't be saved. However, Uncle He sent someone to say that the raft had already been set up, and that he would be able to rescue them when it was dawn, and that Fluttershy would be able to return at noon at the latest, so let's not worry. There is also the horse farm, Master Meng arranged for Ming'er to send a unified faction with good water quality, and set up a small raft to take a look at the heavily flooded places everywhere, so that we don't toss around. It's the middle of the night now, and you've been dizzy for hours, but you're terrifying us! The doctor came to take a look. said that he was angry and attacked his heart, and he felt cold outside, so he had to take care of it for a few days. Are you thirsty? I'm going to pour you a bowl of rice soup!" ”

Zhao Yulan turned around and wanted to leave, but Zhang Qingting held her hand tightly, looking at her anxiously with eager eyes, what else is there to do?

"They're all out there! I can't even take care of eating, so I sit down and take a nap when I'm really tired. I'm the only one who can't help, so I'll take care of you inside. The rain is really heavy, many neighbors' houses have been washed away, the academy has been full, and all the places that can be vacated in the yamen have been vacated, and Master Fang has opened up the two new houses that have not been rented out in our alley, his legs and feet are not good, but he is not idle, and he has steamed his steamed hair for a day to everyone. Zhao Yulan wanted to tell her a joke, "Our family is now boiling porridge and cooking with silver treasure ingots!" ”

Zhang Qingting wanted to know more than that, Zhao Yulan understood what she meant, and couldn't help but cry again when she thought about it, "Mother...... My mother is also here, and she kneels in front of the gods in the hall! ”

Zhang Qingting's heart immediately sank to the bottom, and he struggled to squeeze out a word, "Didn't you find it......"?

Zhao Yulan shook her head and choked up, "The master of the Li family sent out all the family members who could be sent out by the whole mansion to find them, and they followed the place where they threw them, but when they found this, there was no news!" However, they had already borrowed the boat, and on the second watch, they sent someone to report the news, and went down the boat to find it. Sister-in-law, don't worry, maybe by tomorrow, there will be news of the eldest brother! ”

Zhang Qingting sighed heavily in his heart and closed his eyes in a dejected manner. There is a word faintly floating in my heart - more evil and less auspicious!

But as long as you don't find it, there is still hope! She secretly encouraged herself, she must not give up, Zhao Chengcai may be trapped somewhere waiting for them to rescue. If he had been so discouraged in the first place, how much disappointment would he have?

She reopened her eyes and pointed to the warm rice soup on the table.

If you want to save people, you must first take care of your own body. Not to mention anything else, just in their own home, so many people are looking at themselves! What would they do if they fell?

After drinking a bowl of thick rice soup, Zhang Qingting felt much better. The throat was not so painful, and the heat in the body had subsided a lot, looking at Zhao Yulan's haggard face, he suddenly remembered something again, "How is the Tian family?" ”

Asked about this, Zhao Yulan was also worried, "His old house was also washed away, but fortunately, everyone is fine." Now it is being placed in the new house, and Lord Meng has ordered that the food and clothing of all the victims will be provided by each family, and the government will settle the accounts in a unified manner, which is no obstacle for the time being. Just wait for the water to recede, what will their family do? ”

Zhang Qingting thought for a while, "You still have fifty taels of silver in my hand before, I'll lend him some more when I go back, and let him rebuild the house first!" His old house was already so dilapidated that it was unlivable, so it would be better to tear it down and rebuild it! If you want to build it, build some of it, don't just build two rooms to save trouble. ”

"I ......" Zhao Yulan was a little surprised, lowered her head and whispered, "I originally thought that I would sell those two sets of gold and silver ornaments and build two rooms for their family to live in." ”

"That's fine." Zhang Qingting thought that the horse farm had suffered heavy losses, and he would have to ask a lot of cash for his own recovery and reconstruction, and now he could save a little bit is a little, "With your ornaments, plus fifty taels of silver, it is worth about one tael in total, enough for their family to build a good courtyard, and it will not be enough to produce much." But you ask someone to bring a message, I borrowed this money from him, and he has to make a note to pay it back! ”

Seeing that Zhao Yulan was puzzled, Zhang Qingting explained, "Silly girl, so many people in their family live in the house you paid for, even if you don't want him back, can their family live with peace of mind?" Even if you really become a family in the future, what do people say? Even if you get married, it's not easy to get along, if you occasionally quarrel a few words, people have to remember that this house was built by you, and it's hard to say what should be said. Do you want people to always live with you with a feeling of repaying your kindness? ”

Zhao Yulan understood, full of gratitude, "It's still my sister-in-law who thinks about it thoroughly!" ”

Zhang Qingting said that he had a lot of energy, and he was very tired, "You go and rest!" I'm going to sleep a little longer, Ming'er has a lot to do! You have to get rid of your illness quickly! ”

Zhao Yulan saw that she was clear and determined, so she was not so worried, and went back to rest.

When Zhang Qingting woke up from sleep and opened her eyes again, she felt a little lighter, and she struggled to get up and wash herself. Seeing that he was pale and haggard in the mirror, he must have looked worried when he walked out. I freshened up and dressed up, changed into bright clothes, and put on some rouge to cover up my sick appearance, and went out in good spirits.

"Big sister! How are you? Yinbao Yuanbao was very surprised to see Zhang Qingting go downstairs with a radiant face.

These two little brothers are much more sensible now, and the adults all go out to work, so they cook and clean at home, and get up early in the morning to work in the kitchen, which is very serious and responsible.

"yes, it's no big deal!" Zhang Qingting greeted them one by one with a smile, and said a few words of encouragement, "Well done!" But there was still a bit of weakness in his voice.

"Big sister, go sit down!" The younger brothers drove her to the hall, "Your medicine is almost ready, eat something first, and drink the medicine later!" ”

Zhang Qingting was very pleased, and when he went to the hall to take a look, sure enough, Zhao Wang was still kneeling in front of the shrine. I think it's because I haven't slept all night, there is no blood on my face, and my hair, which is always neatly combed, is also a little unkempt, and the whole person seems to be ten years old.

At first glance, seeing Zhang Qingting come in dressed brightly and dazzlingly, Zhao Wang's family didn't even roll his eyes, he looked at her in a daze, and didn't react for a long time, is this still the daughter-in-law who was unconscious yesterday and seemed to be dying at any time?

Zhang Qingting didn't talk to her first, he sincerely took a pillar of incense, bowed in front of the god and prayed silently, before he got up and said to Zhao Wang, "Mother-in-law, you have been kneeling all night, go and rest!" ”

She had good intentions, but when Zhao Wangshi saw her dressed, he didn't get angry, "You...... What do you see you like? Your father-in-law's whereabouts are unknown, are you embarrassed to pack up and dress up? ”

Thinking of her, as soon as he heard that Zhao Chengcai fell into the water and disappeared, he immediately cried to death, and immediately knelt in front of God after he understood, sincerely praying that God would bless his son with safety. Zhao Wang's is very clear about this, they will have to rely on the eldest child to support the elderly in the future, if there is a long and two short, then she will have no way.

Speaking of which, there is a building, but it can be a building...... Zhao Wang's belly was on fire when he thought of him!

When he came over yesterday, he had something to discuss with Zhang Qingting, but at first glance, he heard that Da'er fell into the water in order to save people, and now his life and death are unknown, but Zhao Wang's family was scared half to death. Seeing Zhang Qingting fainting and the pitiful little appearance, Zhao Wang's family was very distressed and pityful, and he also burned incense for his daughter-in-law in front of God, no matter what, this is always his own family, right? But who would have thought that when this daughter-in-law woke up, she would be so showy and smeared with grease and powder, didn't she take the life and death of her husband to heart at all?

Zhang Qingting, this is really wronged, there is nowhere to sue! I just want to dress up energetically and cheer up the family and myself, who would have thought that this fussy mother-in-law would misunderstand. However, those who pity her as a parent must be uncomfortable if their son is missing, so he does not argue with her, but patiently explains, "Mother-in-law, don't I also want everyone to feel at ease?" There is such a big thing in this house, no one is happy in their hearts, if we have something else, what do people think about it? ”

Zhang Qingting felt it, and unconsciously shed tears, "If tears can be exchanged for Xianggong, you can let me cry for a month from now on!" But does that work? The more critical this moment, the more we must take care of ourselves, take care of our family, and let Xianggong come back and not worry about it. I was sick after a rain yesterday, and Xianggong has been out for so long, and it is even harder to come and endure. If we all fall, then Xianggong comes back, who will take care of him? So not only do I have to take care, but mother-in-law, you have to take care of your body, we can't add to the chaos! ”

Zhao Wang's family also heard some truth, if he also fell ill, how would the stall at home be cleaned up?

Seeing that her face softened, Zhang Qingting helped her mother-in-law up, "You haven't eaten for a day, have you?" Let's have some food first, and only then will we have the strength to find people and do things! ”

Zhao Wangshi thought about it reasonably, borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and stood up by himself, "I hope God will open his eyes and take care of our family!" ”

"Yes! Definitely! Zhang Qingting sat down with her to eat, and asked her, "How is your home?" With such heavy rain, leave those crops alone, don't hurt yourself! ”

Zhao Wangshi sighed heavily, with a sad face, but now in this situation, she swallowed her words back after thinking about it, and waited for Chengcai to come back! Just, "I also said that I will plant a season of soybean sorghum for you in the autumn, and now it is all in the soup!" I'll have to wait until next year. ”

Zhang Qingting persuaded her, "It's just some crops, it's wasted this year, so forget it." Think about the collapse of many houses, our family is okay. ”

Zhao Wang understands this truth, and after breakfast, he won't make trouble here, "I'll go back first, and there are still things to take care of at home!" If there's any news of success, be sure to let me know! Besides, I saw that everyone was busy in the rain, and the ginger soup was boiling more, so that everyone could drink more. We don't have anything else, Jiang grew up in the ground, but it wasn't washed away, I'll send you some more in the evening. This thing, no one comes out to sell vegetables, and you have no place to buy them with the money! ”

Zhang Qingting nodded in response, "You don't have to be in person, you really want to send it, let Chengdong send it over!" ”

"He ......," Zhao Wang said angrily, "I asked him to dig a canal at home, and it won't be empty!" ”

Zhang Qingting thought that she had lost her eldest son, and she was reluctant to let her second son come out to take risks, but she could understand it and didn't pay much attention.

"Take care of yourself!" Zhao Wangshi confessed, put on his robe, put on a hat and left, and before leaving, he glanced back at Zhang Qingting's belly and sighed, "It's good to have a child!" ”

Zhang Qingting was shy and sad when he heard it. Watching Zhao Wang's family leave with his body slumped, even his hair seemed to turn a lot whiter overnight. If Zhao Chengcai really has something, and he didn't even leave a child, it's really ...... Poor place!

No! He'll definitely be back! Zhang Qingting didn't let himself be cranky, cheered up, and came out to help.

Everyone was so busy that they suddenly saw her appear in front of them so refreshed, and they all felt refreshed.

"Girl, eldest sister, are you okay?"

"It's all right!" Zhang Qingting saw that everyone had stayed up all night, his eyes were red, it was definitely not the law to go on like this, "Everyone now take turns to go back to rest, eat and sleep, and then come to change shifts, if you continue to hold on so strongly, you will all be sick in the end, but what should you do?" ”

Hearing her words, Qingbai hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Zhao, go and persuade us adults!" From yesterday to now, I haven't closed my eyes for a day and a night, and I have been coughing until now, I can't speak, and I refuse to listen to how I persuade him to go back! ”

Zhang Qingting smiled slightly, "There is only one most disrespectful way to deal with you adults!" That's what he taught me yesterday. ”

Master Meng Zhanmeng, whose eyes were blood-red and was already so tired that he was about to cough up blood, finally collapsed after taking a bowl of medicinal tea specially handed by Zhang Qingting.

Qingbai was very grateful to Zhang Qingting, "Mrs. Zhao, I'm really sorry, there is no one in the yamen anymore, and I still have to handle official business for us here." Can you put him in your house for the time being and help take care of one or two? ”

As far as the Zhang family is closest to the academy, even if Meng Zhan wakes up, he will not be blamed.

Of course! Zhang Qingting asked him to carry Meng Zhan back to his house, and placed him in Zhang Jinbao's room on the first floor, so that Yinbao ingots could take care of them at home.

Here, Qingbai began to make arrangements on his own, putting some people who were tired of the day back to rest, and letting those who had already been resettled come out to help the new victims.

Zhang Qingting saw that he was a small scholar, and he was methodical and well-organized, and it seemed that the Meng family was from an extraordinary background, and this scholar was also very well-trained.

Zhang Qingting didn't dare to act recklessly at this time, in addition to helping Qingbai take care of some things, and then greeting his own family.

At noon, the people who rowed out to inspect the disaster came back and reported that seven out of ten of the entire zaran pot had been flooded, and the deepest part of the house was submerged. However, now that the water is coming downstream, it seems that the rain above has gradually stopped.

Everyone was in a much lighter mood when they heard this, and they just hoped that the rain here would stop soon.

Speaking of the Divine Horse Farm, the man smiled, "I've never seen a place where all the horses were driven to the house, but Mrs. Zhao, you have a really clever idea!" When I went to your place, the water had already flooded the windows, but not to the roof, and your family was fine! As long as it doesn't rain upstream, when the rain stops here, it'll be safe. Your brother and buddy asked me to bring a message to reassure you, they are all right! They were still there catching fish and grilling them when I went, and no, they had to let me bring you two back! ”

Everyone listened to it, but they also knew that they were still in the mood to joke, that is, it was really fine.

(PS It's finally sunny, although it's windy, but looking out the window is still a lot warmer.) Seeing the support and rewards of relatives again, Gui is even more brilliant! Happiness oh ^^)
