Chapter 69: Meet in the Bamboo Forest

"Huang County Cheng...... If it's okay and the grass people have to go back to their families, they ...... first."

Before Jiang Yan finished speaking, she was interrupted by the village chief: "If anything can be important to the county lord, you will follow us and wait for the county lord's orders." ”

He panicked and sweated profusely, this Aunt Jiang was too bold, the county lord obviously hadn't finished asking, couldn't she see it?

Didn't you see that as soon as you opened your mouth, the county lord frowned? I thought Aunt Jiang was a flexible brain......

The county didn't think there was anything, he naturally thought that the average village woman didn't know etiquette, after all, Aunt Jiang didn't know how to salute, and it was natural to not understand people's faces, and he frowned not because of Aunt Jiang, but because he thought that Aunt Jiang said that not every mountain has a water source...... In this case, how can he solve the drought situation in the village?

"No matter what, we still have to try, I wonder if Aunt Jiang can follow us up the mountain to find a water source? If I can find other water sources, it will also be a great credit, and I will give you some commendation to the prefectural magistrate at that time. ”

Jiang Yan shook her head silently, in order to dig wild vegetables to find valuable things, she has been going to the mountains almost every day since she came to this world, and she is tired of her family.

She paused and said: "The method of finding a water source is not difficult, if there is really one, as long as you can find it according to this method, it is useless for me to go, and it is the most energy-consuming to build a bamboo raft to lead the water down the mountain, I just accidentally found the water source, the real hard work is the village chief and Li Zheng, they are arranged in an orderly manner, the management is strong, and everyone in the village is also enthusiastic and hardworking, which can successfully lead the water down the mountain." ”

The county leader nodded, and his eyes brought more appreciation when he looked at the village chief and Li Zheng.

Jiang Yan praised everyone at once, the big guy's face was crimson when he was looked at by the county Cheng, and the more he looked at Jiang Yan for a while, the more pleasing he became.

In fact, she just said what she was thinking, the villagers of Linjia Village were more united than she imagined, from the discovery of water sources to the construction of bamboo rafts, the people of a village were unexpectedly actively unified, it seems that in the face of real disasters, the contradictions between people are indeed insignificant.

Huang Xiancheng nodded, that method sounds very simple, it should not be difficult to operate, and it is indeed not good for a widow to follow a group of men around the wilderness.

"If you find a water source, I will order the Lord of the Prefecture, and then you will tell you in detail about the process of building the bamboo raft." Huang Xiancheng's face showed a few hints of excitement, he had a hunch, even if not every village could find a water source, but it would definitely not be impossible to find a place.

In the past few years of the drought in Yongan Town, the county order was almost dismissed by the imperial court, although it is still a county order, but it is very aggrieved, and the normal local county order is generally changed every three years, but they have stayed in Yongan Town for five or six years.

This year, if we can find water sources in all the drought-stricken villages, stabilize the people's hearts, and pay more taxes and grain, it can be regarded as a great political achievement.

Huang County's small abacus crackled, the county order is his brother-in-law, as long as the brother-in-law mixes well, his future will naturally not be bad, maybe the official rank can be promoted to him again.

Jiang Yan said goodbye to the county and led Lin Bei to his home, the sun was shining, the air was hot and dry, and there were still many people watching the carriage under the big trees in the threshing floor, but few people dared to step forward, everyone just gathered around, and the bolder ones would take hay to feed the horses.

After just walking for a while, Jiang Yan felt sweat-stained and sticky and uncomfortable.

"Mother, why are you sighing?" Lin Bei listened to his mother's sigh, and Xiao Jian's eyebrows wrinkled together.

Jiang Yan rubbed his head and said: "That Huang County Cheng said, there are more than 20 villages in Yong'an Town, and only our village has found a water source, think about it, if it doesn't rain all the time, and only our village has found a water source, even if the village collects grain, it will only become the target of public criticism." ”

"Mother mean, when the time comes, those bandits who have fallen into the grass will come to steal our food?" Lin Bei's crisp voice was not a question, but a statement.

Jiang Yan patted his brain funny: "Do you still know what it means to fall into the grass?" ”

Lin Bei's face was extremely serious, and the glutinous Zhengtaiyin said calmly: "I know! The eldest brother said that if my mother does not get better, there will be no rain this year, and there will be no harvest, our family will have nothing to eat, and the eldest brother will take us to the bandits' den. ”

Jiang Yan looked at Lin Bei with a calm face in shock, thinking that Lin Dong, who had always been honest and honest, would make such a decision, and couldn't help but be a little afraid, the original body actually forced several children to become mountain bandits!

Before she got home, Jiang Yan, who was far away, saw Liu Xiaomeng hurriedly walking towards the mountains and forests, and that direction was neither to go to the fields nor to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables, she called twice, but did not hear a response, so the two had to follow.

"Mother, what is the second sister-in-law doing in the woods?" Lin Bei was the first to ask.

Jiang Yan frowned and shook her head, she didn't know that it was a bamboo forest in the back mountain, surrounded by wasteland, and very few people went there on weekdays.

Before the two of them walked into the forest, they heard a voice from inside, or Yu Xuan's voice, Lin Bei was excited, he had a natural liking for the reader, and he was about to pass by Jiang Yan.

"What's wrong? That's Yu Xiucai, I heard that he came to our village before, but I didn't see him. Lin Bei's dark eyes were open, and there was undisguised excitement in his eyes.

"Yu Xuan is your second sister-in-law's ex-fiancé, your second sister-in-law is with your second brother, and they still came out to meet, don't you think something is wrong? Let's see what they have to say here. Jiang Yan's face was calm, and her voice was surprisingly cold, even Lin Bei felt her mother's displeasure.

His face changed, yes! The second sister-in-law is with the second brother! So why did you come to see your ex-fiancé?

If the villagers knew about this, it would be a pig cage!

He still wanted to speak, but Jiang Yan covered his mouth: "Shhh, don't talk yet." ”

Jiang Yan looked at Lin Zi coldly, Lin Nan is stubborn, honest, and he is riveting with all his strength when he believes in the things, Liu Xiaomeng is the only choice he still insists on under the suppression and hard work of the original body for many years, if Liu Xiaomeng is not worth it, and she lives up to Lin Nan's affection, then she will not let the other party have a good time! For her, Lin Nan is much more important than Liu Xiaomeng!

"Good sister, Xiaomeng, you don't know how difficult our family is, now that you are living so well in the Lin family, I just asked you to borrow some food, how can you refuse me." The female voice who spoke was gentle and pitiful, and her crying voice kept saying: "No matter how much my father and mother raised you, you can't live a good life by yourself, so you forget about us......"

The forest was dense, because few people had set foot all year round, and it was overgrown with weeds and dwarf bamboos, blocking the figures of Jiang Yan and the others, as well as Liu Xiaoyue beside Yu Xuan.
