401 No water to drink

Also, even if it's a toy, who doesn't like a nice toy? Since Miss is a young lady in the imperial merchant, she should have seen a lot of good things, even if she goes to Zhuangzi, it should be comfortable and comfortable, where can it be like this?

In such a place, I am afraid that I will feel uncomfortable even if I stay for a day, let alone stay here for a long time. Even the men who live in the city may not be able to stand it, let alone Miss a delicate little girl.

Could it be that Uncle Fei did it on purpose? Just to make the young lady unbearable and go back to the city earlier?

But that's okay, anyway, it's safer for Miss to stay in Lancheng than in Zhuangzi, although it is said that there are not many external troubles now, but who knows if she will encounter the same thing as before? When the time comes, relying on his brothers, can he really protect Miss? Even if the three kung fu of Congshan, Conglin, and Congjun around the young lady are good, if there are too many people coming, I am afraid that I will not be able to cope with it.

Jiang Yunzhao didn't know that in a short period of time, Chu Jianming had thought so much, she just felt that she had never seen such a difficult environment. It's hard to imagine how these people live in such an environment.

Even if he didn't see it with blue eyes, as long as he looked at the dry soil and the deep ravines of the mountains, Jiang Yunzhao felt heavy in his heart.

"Let's go ahead and have a look." Jiang Yunzhao returned to the carriage and planned to ask Chu Jianming to take her to the farmer's house to have a look.

Isn't the best way to understand the people's situation be to visit their homes? Jiang Yunzhao knows that as long as he goes, he can know a lot, and he can also ask by the way if there is a possibility of increasing the crop yield here.

In the future, this will be her place, she wants Zhuangzi to pass the time, the most important thing is to make money, if this is the case, let alone make money, this Zhuangzi's annual harvest is only afraid that it will not be enough to maintain Lancheng to live, so it can't be done.

Soon, he arrived at a family closest to the mountain road, this family was not bad, and the carriage could reach the door, so Chu Jianming chose this one.

"Auntie, we are passing guests, we are tired, we have come to ask you for water." Jiang Yunzhao said with a smile on his face.

This is the usual excuse, ordinary people, if they ask for a mouthful of food, maybe not, but it is not a problem to ask for a sip of water to drink.

Where did I think, but I miscalculated when I got here, the woman who was about fifty years old, and looked dirty looked at Jiang Yunzhao and the others, but she didn't open her mouth to beckon her in, nor did she go in to serve the water herself, but looked at her fixedly.

Jiang Yunzhao was a little confused, so he looked at a few people behind him, but it was obvious that these people, like Jiang Yunzhao, were all stunned, aren't they just begging for saliva to drink? Why do you stare at people like that?

"Auntie, we are passing guests, can we ask you for a drink?" From Lin immediately opened his mouth and asked again.

As Lin spoke, she secretly said: This old lady can't be stupid, right? Otherwise, why don't you say a word and just stare at Miss?

Or has the old lady never seen a beauty like Miss, so she was stunned?

"Miss, there is really no water in the old woman's house, please bear with me." After a while, the old woman suddenly said such a sentence.

After saying this, the old woman quickly closed the tattered gate and returned to the courtyard.

Jiang Yunzhao encountered this situation for the first time, and he didn't react for a long time, how could he be rejected when he asked for a sip of water?

"Miss, this mother-in-law is so hateful, who doesn't have water at home?" Conglin said angrily.

Chu Jianming looked at Conglin, and then at Jiang Yunzhao, and finally decided to speak.

"Miss, there is really no water, the northwest is dry, there is a lack of water, and both people and crops depend on the sky for food. It has not rained a single heavy rain for two months this year, but I am afraid that there is really no water in their home. When Chu Jianming said this, the sad expression on his face was not fake at all.

Chu Jianming has always lived in the northwest, and naturally knows what the drought in the northwest has become this year, although it has rained a few times before, it is not enough to put it in the cellar, so these people should still drink the watering accumulated last winter.

This is much more expensive than the spring rain that people often say, and it is much more expensive than oil, so naturally it will not be easily taken out to others, after all, when it comes to the critical time, water can save lives.

"Tell me about it." Jiang Yunzhao was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Miss, there is no water source here, you should have noticed it along the way."

Jiang Yunzhao nodded, she naturally noticed, so she was also very curious about how the drinking water of the people here was solved.

"The water here is dug in a cellar by the family, and when it rains, the water from the yard is brought into the cellar for drinking water." Chu Jianming gave a brief introduction, but Jiang Yunzhao was a little stunned.

Chu Jianming seemed to have long known that Jiang Yunzhao would definitely not understand, so he just explained again with a smile, and then said: "So, if you want to fill the cellar, then you must leave it when it rains heavily, but the northwest is dry, and there are not a few times a year when it can rain, let alone heavy rain." ”

After a pause, Chu Jianming continued: "So, it may be easier to ask for a bite to eat here than to ask for a bowl of water." ”

Jiang Yunzhao suddenly realized, it turned out to be the case, but since this is the case, she will not continue to ask here, it is better to settle down earlier.

"You seem to know a lot about the people here?" Jiang Yunzhao asked thoughtfully.

"Miss Hui's words, the little one was originally from the Northwest, but he wasn't from Lancheng, but the life of the Northwest people is almost the same, and the little one's hometown is also like this, so I know." Chu Jianming said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

It was because of the hardships of his family's first days that he became a soldier, just to have a bite to eat.

"After that, we are here in the northwest, if there is anything you don't understand, you have to tell us in time." Conglin said to Chu Jianming with a smile.

Chu Jianming listened to Conglin's words, and seemed to be a little shy, and lowered his head for a while before saying: "I'm just a rough person, where do I know a lot, and I met today, so I can say a few words." ”

Chu Jianming feels that people like himself have a lot of arrests everywhere, where can he still need his own reminders? Who is Miss? Don't say Miss, who are the people around her? Isn't that much more powerful than him?

Jiang Yunzhao didn't speak, but just looked at Chu Jianming and Conglin thoughtfully, and seemed to see something, but it didn't seem to see anything.
