Chapter 37: He Got Sick

Zhu Zihan turned around and said to the downstream representatives: "No one knows the truth that water flows to a low place.

You always want to build dams to block the water, but can the water be blocked? Why don't you dredge it, you won't be able to drown the crops if you dredge it. However, the work of dredging the river cannot only be done by the downstream, and the upstream is also responsible.

If you use the manpower and financial resources to build dams and hold back water on dredging rivers, the results will be very good.

Should the upstream actively participate in it, and give human, material, and financial support to the downstream? At that time, the effect will be twice the result with half the effort. Excuse me, isn't this a good way to benefit both the upstream and the downstream?"

Representatives of both sides listened to Lord Zhu's words. They all think it's very reasonable. Representatives of both sides expressed their willingness to accept Mr. Zhu's proposal.

Zhu Zihan saw that the representatives of both sides supported his proposal. He happily said to everyone: "Since the two sides have the same opinion, why not strike while the iron is hot and say what you say!"

"Next, I will go to discuss with the parents and officials of your two counties to make material and financial allocation, so that the downstream can get material and financial help.

I also suggest that you do what the people can do as much as possible first, and do not have to wait. ”

Later, under the coordination of Lord Zhu, the yamen of the two counties reached a cooperation agreement. Under the supervision of Lord Zhu, soon the upstream and downstream, from the official to the non-governmental, coordinated to dismantle the dam, repair the embankment together, and dredge and widen the river together.

This major historical issue, which has been disputed for thousands of years, was satisfactorily resolved under the auspices of Master Zhu.

Here the problem is solved. There are countless problems ahead, waiting to challenge Zhu Zihan!

Zhu Zihan was shouldering a heavy responsibility, and he was about to set off on the small boat he was on when he came. When the victims on both sides of the strait learned that Lord Zhu was leaving, people stood on the banks of the river, and when Lord Zhu's boat left, they also left, waving their hands to Lord Zhu and shouting words of gratitude.

This time, the place where Zhu Zihan came was not a place in the disaster area. Although this place is not a disaster area, it has made a great contribution to disaster relief.

On this day, Zhu Zihan and his entourage saw a touching scene in front of the yamen.

Afterwards, Lord Zhu learned the reason for the incident. The name of the governor here is Niu Jianbin, and he is an official who is diligent and honest, and loves the people.

It is said that hundreds of thousands of people have been taken in and assisted in his jurisdiction. Much more than the county's population.

The disaster in the area under Niu Jianbin's jurisdiction is not large, but there are many people from outside. Hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of victims poured in at once, which caught Niu Jianbin off guard. For the survival of the victims, the Dengzhou government has done everything it can to support it.

"My lord, I didn't borrow any food. "Someone came to report.

After a while, someone came to report: "My lord, there is a letter from the imperial court and there is no food to allocate." Niu Jianbin, who was racking his brains, slapped the table and said, "Hey! Is it really to the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted and there is no way out?

In order to relieve the victims, Li Wanxiu set up a porridge shed outside her home. It's been a few years, and it's never stopped. Recently, Li Wanxiu's own family is also running out of food, what should I do?

The situation was very urgent, and when Niu Jianbin's disaster relief work was about to reach a dead end, a miracle happened.

Two carriages loaded with grain were heading towards the government, and in the carriage in front of them were sitting an elderly couple.

Lord Niu Jianbin, who had just returned from inspecting the grain depot, was pacing anxiously in the house, and kept muttering: "God, there is no food in the warehouse, what do you want me to do?"

Suddenly, someone came to report: "My lord, someone from outside the yamen has sent two wagons of grain." ”

"Ah, that's a godsend. God help me! Quick, I'll go see if this is the good Samaritan?" he guessed as he went out.

From afar, Niu Jianbin recognized it. They are the father, mother, second brother, third brother, and the neighbor's prosperous third uncle.

Niu Jianbin hurriedly greeted him and knelt down in front of his parents, he was so excited that he didn't say anything for a while but cried.

"Get up! Human nature is good, and it is man's duty to do good, and it is right for my father and mother to do this. "Don't be so excited. Niu Chongtian took his son and said.

Xue Chunyan felt sorry for her son and said: "Son, it's hard for you, it seems that it is not easy to be a good parent!"

"Daddy, my son is excited that the second elder is such an old man, and he can still practice it. Let my father and mother worry about it. I'm so sorry. ”

In Niu Jianbin's house, daughter-in-law Li Wanxiu personally served tea to her in-laws.

"Daddy, you have walked such a long way, and the road is not smooth, so frightening!" the son complained.

"Daddy, you're all so old. Daddy's health hasn't been doing well lately. In the future, let the young people do these things. Li Wanxiu suggested to the two old men with concern.

"Don't worry, kid. We know it in our hearts. Li Wanxiu comforted.

"Disaster relief is going to run out of food, this is a big deal, I can only rest assured if I come to deliver food in person! Look, I feel more comfortable on this trip than at home!" Niu Chongtian explained.

"Wanxiu, I heard that you are giving porridge to the victims, this is a good thing! Xue Chunyan said with concern.

Niu Chongtian happily praised: "It's right! After being loyal and good, this is the good daughter-in-law of my Niu family!"

Li Wanxiu nodded and left.

There is food to help the victims at the government granary. Li Wanxiu's good deeds of soup porridge can also continue.

In front of the yamen, Zhu Zihan saw his good colleague Niu Jianbin from a distance, and admired others for doing such a great thing and good deed. Zhu Zihan felt that he was even more fortunate to see Lord Niu Jianbin's respected parents.

Their good deeds made Zhu Zihan awe-inspired, these two kind old men are also too great, they not only did a great good deed, but more importantly, they cultivated such an outstanding son.

Zhu Zihan loves these two old men from the bottom of his heart. He bowed to them from afar with reverence.

Zhu Zihan turned to Zhang and Wang and said, "Let's go! This is the most reassuring place." They don't have to worry about anyone at all. ”

In the past few months, Zhu Zihan has been able to get rid of the suffering caused by the flood as soon as possible for the people in the disaster area and restore the normal production and life of the people. He did not eat well, slept well, or rested well, overcame all kinds of difficulties, and eliminated all kinds of hidden dangers in the disaster area.

Zhu Zihan has gone through a lot of hardships, and has visited almost every corner of the disaster area for private inspections and secret visits, and found many problems, all of which have been properly solved.

Everywhere Zhu Zihan went, he was very popular with the people and won unanimous praise from the people, but at the same time, he offended many colleagues, and even relatives of the king.

Early in the morning, the sun rises. In the inn, Zhang Dahu put the meal that was reheated for Lord Zhu on the table again. He sat at the table and waited for Master Zhu to wake up.

Zhang Dahu knew that Master Zhu had been too tired in the past few months, and he couldn't bear to wake him up when he got up late. Zhang Dahu wait, wait, wait. At this time, Wang Xiaolong came in.

"Master Zhu has never been so late to get up, will it be ......," Wang Xiaolong said uneasily.

Zhang Dahu also felt that something was wrong, he said: "Let's go!"

They hurried to Lord Zhu's bedside.

Zhang Dahu stretched out his hand and tried it on Lord Zhu's forehead, and was taken aback and said, "It's not good, the adult is sick and has a high fever!"

Wang Xiaolong also reached out to test Lord Zhu's forehead and said, "It's so hot, wake up your lord!"

Niu Chongtian is sick. With illness, he especially misses his eldest son Jianwen and grandson. In his sleep, he often called the grandson he had never met. When he woke up, he told his family that he had seen his grandson.

Ma Xiaopiao, a sixty-three-year-old goddaughter, came with a bowl of water and said, "Dad, you can drink saliva! After drinking the water, you can tell everyone what your grandson looks like."

Niu Chongtian was interested, and he said: "The eyes, nose, and mouth are no different from his grandfather's, they are all like me!"

"But, Dad, Jianwen is a bit like a mother. Ma Xiaopiao said.

"Yes, yes, grandson should be like his grandmother. ”

Speaking of this, Niu Chongtian coughed.

Ma Xiaopiao hurriedly said, "Don't talk about it, Dad, you can rest for a while! I'll bring you medicine." ”

At this time, Xue Chunyan came back from outside.

"Mother, I don't need you to help me. You go to rest and rest, just talk to your father. Ma Xiaopiao hurriedly stood up and said.

Ma Xiaopiao said and helped the godmother onto the kang and went to serve the medicine again

Xue Chunyan looked at the back of her goddaughter Ma Xiaopiao walking out and said, "I am also an old man, and I really can't bear to serve the two of us!"

Zhang Dahu and Wang Xiaolong both shouted: "Lord Zhu, Lord Zhu ......"

Wang Xiaolong fed Lord Zhu water. Wang Xiaolong said to Zhang Dahu while feeding the water: "I'm here to take care of the adults, you go to Langzhong." ”

Zhang Dahu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and invite Langzhong." ”

Soon, Zhang Dahu invited Zhou Langzhong, a famous local doctor. Zhou Langzhong entered the door and saw the patient lying on the bed, unconscious, sweating, red face, and difficulty breathing.

He said as he prescribed: "This adult is overworked, and he suffers from typhoid fever due to soil and water adaptation. He is seriously ill and needs to be well recuperated and treated, and must not be tired anymore.

I will be relieved by prescribing a few pills first, and after a period of treatment and rest, it will get better soon. Let me remind you first that after the patient wakes up, he will have nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and other phenomena.

This is to remove the poison from the body, don't be afraid, it won't be long, you can rest assured. ”

Before leaving, Zhou Langzhong repeatedly instructed: "Don't let the adults work anymore." ”

Wang Xiaolong followed Zhou Langzhong to grab the medicine. After coming back, Zhang Dahu boiled medicine and fed medicine to adults. Finally, the adults woke up.

The first thing Zhu Zihan said when he woke up was: "I got up late, we ......"

Zhu Zihan also felt that he was very weak and had no strength, and suddenly felt nauseous again and wanted to vomit. Wang Xiaolong immediately brought the basin they had prepared, and Zhu Zihan vomited for a while.

Zhang Dahu waited for Lord Zhu to rinse his mouth and wipe his face, and then served the food, which Lord Zhu couldn't eat. Zhang Dahu brought rice porridge again, and Zhu Zihan drank half a bowl without force.

Zhu Zihan said that he wanted to hurry, but Zhang Dahu and Wang Xiaolong tried their best to dissuade him. At this moment, Zhu Zihan felt uncomfortable again. He said, "I want to have diarrhea."

In the morning, Zhu Zihan vomited and diarrhea, and now he admitted that he was indeed very sick, and he could no longer rush and could only be treated and rested here.

Qian Fu Yin Qian Bufang, who has always been known for his iron rooster, is in a very bad mood today, and is drinking at home to vent the resentment in his heart!

In order to cope with Zhu Zihan's inspection, he was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with it, so he took out a lot of grain and silver taels this time. For him, this is simply ripping out his own heart and cutting his own flesh, not to mention how heartache and discomfort it is!

He didn't dare not do it and did it well, because he was too afraid of this Zhu Yan prince. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more angry he became, the more upset he became, and the more upset he became, the more he drank heavily.

"Master, master, Lord Mu has come to meet your lord with a stranger. "The housekeeper of the Qian Mansion came to report to Qian Bufang.

The distraught Qian Bufang put the wine glass that had been brought to his lips on the table and said, "Get out! I don't want to see anyone." The housekeeper was just about to turn around and leave, and Qian Bufang spoke again, saying, "Let them wait for me in the living room." ”
