Chapter 190: The boat capsized in the gutter
The field was destroyed by Wang Lizheng, and it took Xu Xiaoxiao and everyone a few hours to clean up the debris in the field, and just when they thought that the matter was finally over, a new crisis reappeared.
Wang Xiaohua ran from the stream in a panic, "Big shopkeeper, it's not good." ”
Xu Xiaoxiao, who was cleaning up the dirt at her feet, suddenly raised her head when she heard the words, and her heart suddenly chuckled, she hurriedly put on her shoes and went to the creek with Wang Xiaohua.
When they came to the bank of the stream, a sour smell floated from the stream, and everyone hurriedly covered their mouths and noses.
Xu Xiaoxiao tightened her brows and approached the stream step by step, when she saw the dirty things in the stream, her stomach instantly felt pantothenic acid, she had not seen such a disgusting scene for a long time.
I saw a yellow liquid floating on the stream, mixed with a lot of moldy leftovers, and a lot of garbage piled up, and the stream became a garbage dump.
The smell was so pungent that the crowd couldn't stand it anymore and retreated from the side of the stream, and the river was clogged up due to the dense pile of garbage, and the originally clear water of the stream became a gutter full of dirt.
Wang Xiaohua really couldn't help but burst into foul language, "Killing a thousand knives, did you cut off your life for money?" Even if we don't need it, don't we need other crops? Villagers don't need to wash clothes and cook anymore? ”
Even Wang Yuzi, who has always stood on the neutral faction, couldn't accept the villagers' approach this time, "They are going to kill themselves." ”
There is only one well in Wangjia Village, because of the drought this year, there has been no rain for many years, even if it rains for a while, it can't solve the problem at all, and the villagers' basic laundry and cooking are dependent on the stream behind the bamboo forest to sustain their lives.
If the water quality of the creek is not usable, the villagers will have to turn over the ridge and go farther to find a water source, and this time the people of Wangjia Village did not think about the future in order to win a big victory.
The people at the scene all looked lifeless, completely different from the previous high-spirited work, everyone's confidence was completely shattered, and without the irrigation of the stream, it was impossible to grow cotton.
Even if the prince came to administer justice, it would take a long time to clean up the stream, and the water quality of the stream would also be affected, so it could not be used.
Everyone looked at Xu Xiaoxiao with gloomy faces, hoping that she could pay attention to what to do next.
Xu Xiaoxiao, who was silent beside her, suddenly raised her eyelids, "Xiaohua, where is the nearest water source?" ”
Wangjiacun underestimated her too much, she was not someone who gave in easily.
Wang Xiaohua thought blankly, and couldn't answer for a while.
Instead, Wang Xiaoni took the lead in answering, "I want to cross Gaoyun Mountain, there is a river on the other side of the mountain." ”
"Okay, let's go take a look." Xu Xiaoxiao raced against time to lead everyone to the river.
She must fight quickly, she can't go on with Wang Li anymore, Wang Er has already gone to inform Chu Qing to come over to support, as long as Chu Qing's men and horses arrive, the seeds in the field can be saved.
The group walked all the way over the hills and through the forest to the river that Wang Xiaoni had said, which was very fast and surrounded by rocks.
At this time, the iron pillar who had been following behind him stood up, and he roughly calculated from Wangjia Village to here, if the pipe was built with bamboo, it would take thousands of meters, and it would take too much time.
The only way to do this is to dig a trail and let the river flow down the trail, Gaoyun Mountain is a cut higher than the hills of Wangjia Village, and the bamboo is connected along the way, so that it can flow smoothly into the fields.
"Dig pipes." He came to Xu Xiaoxiao's side and pulled the corner of her clothes and said.
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded approvingly, she had just observed along the road, and she also felt that digging a pipe was the only way to drain the river.
"This matter needs to be kept secret, and it's time for the people of Wangjia Village to remember it for a long time." Xu Xiaoxiao didn't plan to let too many people know about it.
"That's right, let them starve for two or three days, learn a lesson, and dare to do anything." Wang Xiaoni also agreed with Xu Xiaoxiao's approach, some people in Wangjia Village have a common problem and are self-righteous, so let them suffer this time.
After everyone discussed, they rushed back to Wang Xiaohua's old mansion and waited for Chu Qing's arrival.
Chu Qing came to Wangjia Village with an elite army in less than two hours, and the huge team entered the village, attracting many people to stop and watch.
Especially Wang Lizheng found Chu Qing in the crowd, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
"Grass people, see the prince."
Wang Lizheng's sudden kneeling made the onlookers kneel down in a hurry, and everyone muttered quietly, all speculating about the purpose of the prince's visit.
Chu Qing sat on the horse and glanced at Wang Lizheng coldly, and waved his hand casually, "Take this king to Wang Xiaohua's residence." ”
Wang Lizheng's face instantly gloomy when he heard this, could it be that the prince came this time because of a small matter?
Thinking of this, although he still had a smile on his face, he had already begun to think about how to get rid of the relationship.
He led Chu Qing through Wangjia Village to Wang Xiaohua's old house.
Xu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the courtyard, heard the sound of horses' hooves and thought that Chu Qing had finally come, so she breathed a sigh of relief and lay on the couch indifferently.
Wang Xiaohua nervously came to the yard and paced back and forth, tilting her head from time to time to look at the path outside the door.
On the other hand, Wang Xiaoni and Wang Laozi are much calmer, and they may have gotten along with Xu Xiaoxiao for a few days, and they trust her very much, so they don't worry about what will happen next.
Chu Qing came to Wang Xiaohua's door under the guidance of Wang Lizheng, the door was open, and Wang Xiaoyan hurriedly ran out when he heard the noise.
But she accidentally collided with Chu Qing, who had just stepped into the door, and her eyes froze in place.
Wang Li was shouting hurriedly behind Chu Qing, "Wang Xiaohua, don't hurry up and salute yet." ”
Wang Xiaoyan didn't slow down until he understood Wang Lizheng's voice, and hurriedly knelt down, "Mingirl, Wang Xiaohua knocks on the prince." ”
Chu Qing waved his hand and strode towards Xu Xiaoxiao, "Is everything okay?" ”
"Not so good." Xu Xiaoxiao opened her eyes when she heard the movement outside the door, and then stood up from the sleeping chair.
The villagers followed Chu Qing's team to Wang Xiaohua's house, and everyone gathered around the courtyard, tiptoeing to listen, and after hearing Xu Xiaoxiao's report that it was not good, the villagers couldn't help but get nervous.
They wanted to know that Xu Xiaoxiao had a relationship with the prince and would not participate in Wang Lizheng's bet, and several women on the other side were angry and pulled their ears.
"Look, what I'm saying, don't get involved, you don't listen."
"Dead ghosts, covet those few taels of silver, and your whole family has been killed by you."
Wang Lizheng didn't get much better, he nervously pulled his sleeve to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead, although he kept comforting himself that this bet was made by Xu Xiaoxiao himself, and he didn't do anything.
From the time she entered Wangjia Village, she was all good at eating and drinking, and even Wang Xiaohua's affairs were settled by him.
Except for the last misunderstanding, it was obvious that he didn't offend her.
Thinking of this, his flustered heart calmed down a lot.
