Chapter Ninety-Five: Lizheng, the family doesn't speak two words
"My eyes?" Frightened by the expression on Shen Huazhuo's face, Yun Xiaoshu hurriedly covered his eyes, as if by doing so, his eyes would be fine.
Shen Huazhuo shook his head and explained helplessly: "Although your eyes are better, compared with other people, you have a congenital loss, and you have to be born and nurtured. ”
If the eyes are so easy to use, how can so many people become short-sighted in modern times?
"What then?" Yun Xiaomei was also scared enough, dragging the hem of her clothes and shaking vigorously.
She still likes the second brother who can be seen now, if he can't see it, she has to be a stuffy gourd like before, and she doesn't like to talk all day long.
"I'll see." Unable to take a break, Shen Huazhuo took his pulse, and the more he frowned, the tighter his brows became: "Are you ......?"
Stretched out a finger and shook it in front of him: "Can you see clearly?" ”
Yun Xiaoshu nodded, and Shen Huazhuo moved back and asked.
It wasn't until a little farther away that Yun Xiaoshu's eyes widened at first, and then he narrowed slightly, looking hard, and finally he could only shake his head helplessly: "I can't see clearly." ”
"You're short-sighted." A good pair of eyes have been restored, as long as they are used normally, they can be completely restored to normal, but they ......
Shen Huazhuo glanced at Xu Shi, who walked out with small steps, and sighed.
"What is myopia?" Yun Xiaomei doesn't understand.
Everyone can't understand the meaning of myopia, and she has to explain it.
"You can't see things in the distance, and you can't see things in near places." Concise.
Yun Xiaomei doesn't seem to understand.
"Now I can't see clearly from afar, and if I continue like this, eventually even things near will become more and more difficult to see.
In ancient times, there was no way to wear glasses, and a high degree of myopia could make a person blind.
"Da Lang's daughter-in-law, you must help our little tree, his eyes are ......" Xu came out of the room, and tears came as soon as he said it.
"Don't worry, I'll do my best." It's not the Xu family, just for the Yun family brothers and sisters, she will take good care of it.
"I'll go to town later and get the medicine back." prescribed a prescription for invigorating qi and brightening the eye, and told loudly: "In the future, whenever it gets dark, you must not read anymore, and you can't read for too long during the day, and if your eyes itch, you must close your eyes and rest." ”
Yun Xiaoshu agreed with a snort, whose eyes are in a hurry.
Xu lowered her head in shame, she was too excited to rush for quick success.
Shen Huazhuo lifted the corners of his mouth, he deliberately said it to the Xu family, just understand it.
Turning around and going back to the room, he only had time to change his clothes, so he and Yunbeard put on their own ox cart and drove to the town.
I found Tie Niu to deliver a message to Fu Qingyuan, and made an appointment to meet in the Yuanyuan Building.
Tie Niu was a little embarrassed before leaving, and told them that the eldest young master had gone out to patrol the shop, and he didn't know when he would come back.
"Young Master Fu is busy with other things, let's grab medicine for Xiaoshu first." Yun Huzi pulled Shen Huazhuo to Wang Ji Pharmacy.
But when they came back from grabbing the medicine, they waited in the Yuanyuan Building for another hour, but they didn't see Fu Qingyuan coming.
Both of them came with things in mind, where is there so much time to wait.
When I went downstairs, I wanted to leave a message for the shopkeeper, and I met a girl ring with thick eyebrows and small eyes.
"Yun Niangzi, our eldest young master sent a letter back, saying that he can't come back today, if you have anything to say, just tell the slave maid, and the slave and maid will tell him as soon as you turn around."
Shen Huazhuo frowned and didn't believe it, but because he was in a hurry, he also said a few words: "When Young Master Fu comes back, I will ask my sister to inform him that I have already thought of a solution to the previous rice seed matter." ”
The little girl was overjoyed: "That's great, I don't know what to do?" ”
"The weather is dry, and the rice will only burn when there is a lack of water, and now the water source has been found." If the source problem is solved, the rest will not matter. Her eyes flashed and she smiled back.
"yes, that'...... Where is the water source? "Xiao Yahuan has a lot of questions, no matter how big or small, I want to ask a clear understanding.
"Back Mountain." Cloudbeard snorted coldly.
I've never seen such a noisy girl, it's even more annoying than their master.
"Eh, slave remember."
The little girl was so frightened by Cloudbeard's cannibalistic eyes that she shrank back, and unconsciously took three steps back.
Shen Huazhuo lowered his head and smiled, only pretending not to see.
The two drove the ox cart and talked all the way.
"I also learned that the meeting is the right one." No matter where you are, if you want to do a big project, you have to let the local leaders know.
Cloudbeard silently responded, he had no opinion.
In the afternoon of the same day, the little couple couldn't wait to enter the door of the main house.
Although Li Zheng's surname is Li, his ancestors have also lived in Shen's village for generations, and speaking of which, their family should also be surnamed Shen.
At that time, the grandfather of the Li family, Shen Zhuang, went out to be a petty official and came back, and became Lizheng, there was only one Yunying unmarried daughter in the family, and in desperation, Li Nianqing was recruited as a son-in-law, and the earlier generation was still surnamed Shen Lai.
Later, after Shen Zhuang and the daughters of the Shen family disappeared one after another, their family became the world of the Li family, so that in the hands of the third generation of Li Laowu, they changed their surnames and changed the lintel, and the people in the village only knew that they were the Li family, but not the Shen family.
Li Laowu was so worried about Li Yuancai's career that he didn't completely forget his roots, and he would also give incense and burn paper to the ancestors of the Shen family during the New Year's holidays.
Therefore, the village chief and the villagers also acquiesced, and no one looked for trouble.
Now that Li Yuan has only been promoted, and he has gone to Beijing to take the exam, the Li family's prestige in Shenjia Village is even greater.
Seeing the cloud-bearded couple coming, for the sake of the severe drought in the weather, Li Laowu ordered the little girl to greet with good tea and good food.
Shen Huazhuo didn't say anything long-winded, and bluntly said that he had found a water source.
"Did you really find it?" Li Laowu knocked his hands on the peach wood table, his face excited.
If the people in Shenjia Village are doing well, the better he will be, otherwise in a disaster year, the tribute in the village will not be collected evenly, and he will not be able to pay it, and he will have to eat the leader of the county master.
Now that the momentum of the drought is gradually revealed, only the well in the mountain behind the village is left in the entire Shenjia Village, and there are still sporadic water gushing out. The draft in the village is a problem, where is there a surplus to water the fields.
"The water source is on the ground." Shen Huazhuo told himself and Yunbeard's discovery.
"Although we have not confirmed that there is a water source underground, our ancestors have also said it, but for so many years, we have experienced countless famines, but no one has ever found it."
The plants in the back mountains of the village are so luxuriant, naturally there is groundwater, but this depth, there is still a place, but there is no accuracy, and some people have tried to dig pits everywhere in the village, but they can't dig deep, they can't dig down.
Some dug up to two zhang of rice, some dug to three zhang, and even more than four zhang, but did not find a water source.
Later, it was passed down from generation to generation, and everyone also lost their minds.
Li Laowu's heart calmed down suddenly.
If you don't find the location of the water source in the village, and only say that there is a water source in the back mountain, this is not a new discovery.
"You have to be able to find a source of water in the village."
There was some vicissitudes in his voice.
Maybe he doesn't think about others, but if everyone's life is not good, his life will definitely not be much better.
If everyone's life is better, then he will definitely be the best one.
"What if I say I have a way to help people find water?"
Isn't it that it is not difficult to find the location of groundwater and then dig wells?
Shen Huazhuo took a sip.
Li Laowu looked at her.
Shen Huazhuo in front of her is probably still a yellow-haired girl who has no hair, but her voice and her courage are a little inexplicably convincing to her.
"It's no joke." Li Laowu was a little suspicious that she was a child's temper and playing, and there was a slight change in mood on her face.
Shen Huazhuo didn't want to say more, she preferred to convince people with practical actions.
"Tomorrow, when the rooster crows, I'll see you at the dam in the west of the village to thresh grain."
She'll leave him speechless.
Looking at her confident back, Li Laowu shook his head, he didn't dare to hold out hope, for fear that the more hope, the more disappointment.
"Daughter-in-law, what do you need me to do?" Cloudbeard stepped forward to take the initiative.
"Do you believe me?" Li Laowu didn't believe her anyway, his hesitant tone and expression couldn't deceive people.
"Faith." Cloudbeard didn't know where his confidence came from, but he was very convinced.
"If you believe in me, I will not let you down."
She didn't learn in vain in modern agronomy, as long as there is a water source, it's not a problem.
She did not refuse Cloudbeard's initiative to ask for help.
Even Yun Xiaomei and Yun Xiaoshu, who followed behind, she accepted it with a smile.
There's a lot of work to do later.
"It's going to be a little harder to wait."
"It's all a family, how can my sister-in-law talk about two families." Yun Xiaoshu listened to Shen Huazhuo's words, took the medicine, and didn't stay up all night, his eyes became much more comfortable.
"Okay, it's good that you don't see the outside." Shen Huazhuo patted and pointed in the direction of the east end of the village: "You go to the east end of the village, I remember that there is a poplar forest there, and you make a mark within a radius of one zhang." There is also a sage, which is enclosed with stones...... "Shen Huazhuo's theories are all set in a set, and they only make people unaware of it.
Shen Huazhuo also listed common animals such as ants and snails, every sentence was very detailed, and he tried his best to be patient, and then repeatedly told and instructed: "You must find more, don't look at them one by one." "It's a waste of time to watch, and the last thing they can afford to waste right now is time.
The next day, the weather was still dry, and the summer cicadas chirped tirelessly, causing people to be a little irritable.
Li Laowu didn't dare to bring more people because he didn't believe it in his heart, and only called a few strong laborers from people who were close to him on weekdays.
"Lizheng, I'm afraid people are not enough." Shen Huazhuo glanced at it.
Digging a well is a manual job, and if they can't keep going, there's no way she can guarantee that she'll be able to get water.
