Zhu Gaoxu and Song Li had already closed their eyes and prayed secretly in their hearts.

Lin Hao is staring at the river, at this time, it is useless to beg anyone, if the real life should be extinguished here, then what?

The surging flood peak slammed into the embankment, making a thunderous sound, and the water splashed dozens of meters high.

Once!

Twice!

……

The entire embankment trembled faintly.

All the people prostrate on the ground, silently praying to the heavens, finally bringing a glimmer of hope for survival, but they are so fragile that they will collapse in an instant.

With the passage of time, the entire embankment, although it trembled, was still as steady as a rock.

The first touch of fish white rose from the east, and the sun caressed everyone's faces, bringing a hint of warmth.

"It's done!"

Lin Hao was ecstatic in his heart, only to feel that his legs were weak, his eyes were dark, and he fell directly to the ground.

"People are determined to win the sky, and half of the wall has no sun and moon for a long time!"

On the canal, there were cheers one after another, and the joy after the disaster jumped on the faces of all the people.

"Don't let your guard down, the precipitation has not stopped, the next flood peak may be ushered in at any time, the embankment still needs to be reinforced, and the people who rested last night will continue to work all night!"

Zhu Gaoxu barely squeezed out a smile, and as soon as his voice fell, he also followed in Lin Hao's footsteps.

Among the migrant workers, they can take turns to rest for a while, and the three of them work from day to night, and then from night to dawn, and their iron bodies can't stand such a toss.

Song Li shook his head helplessly, but his heart was extremely dignified, if it weren't for Lord Lin's insistence, he would have done it with experience.

I'm afraid that today's Jiangnan Mansion has been completely reduced to an ocean, and I don't know how many people are going to die in the flood, and then he will be the sinner of the entire Ming Dynasty, full of guilt, with muddy muddy water, washed his face, and walked towards the work area again.

A horse-drawn carriage galloped towards the mouth of the canal.

"Ning'er, I didn't say you, if it was really so dangerous, then Lin Hao would have fled to somewhere, you wouldn't really think that he was willing to stay and live and die with those untouchables, right?"

On the carriage, Zhu Xi leisurely tasted tea, raised his eyebrows lightly, and snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

Princess Xianning's face was full of self-blame, if she had known earlier, she would not have let Brother Lin be alone on the canal.

……

"Your Royal Highness Princess, why are you here, why don't you hurry up and take Princess Xianning away?"

Song Li saw Princess Xianning walking down from the carriage, and hurriedly scolded the Jinyi guard on the side, even if it temporarily resisted the flood peak, the embankment was not absolutely safe.

"Uncle Song, Ning'er is here to find Brother Lin."

Princess Xianning hurriedly explained.

"Lord Lin was in the camp tent, and the two of them worked on the canal all night with His Second Highness, and fainted."

Song Li hurriedly led Princess Xianning to the camp.

The snoring of the two was like thunder, lying on the bed horizontally and vertically, Zhu Gaoxu's toes were inserted into Lin Hao's nostrils at some point, stirring from time to time.

Seeing that Lin Hao's hands and feet were full of blisters, his lips were chapped without a trace of moisture.

The tip of Princess Xianning's nose was sour for a while, tears burst out of her eyes, and she sobbed in a low voice: "Brother Lin, are you stupid, how can there be a lack of you on the canal!" ”

Zhuxi shrugged his shoulders helplessly, in his opinion, Lin Hao was clearly doing this on purpose, if the embankment collapsed, the emperor's uncle would not let him go, pretending to be hard, making people sympathetic, and asking for credit in the future.

If he really had a heart, how could the people outside still work on the canal, but he lay here and slept soundly.

Zhu Gaoxu turned over, his toes thrust suddenly, Lin Hao was excited, opened his eyes, there was a smell of salted fish, and the cooking cakes he ate last night were about to vomit.

Kicked Zhu Gaoxu's ass angrily, Zhu Gaochu suddenly woke up, looked left and right, and said, "The embankment has collapsed!?" ”

"Brother Lin, are you okay?"

Lin Hao took the potion from Chen Ruohan's hand and gently wiped Lin Hao's festering feet with a brocade handkerchief.

"Ning'er, you're here, how can my cheap life be so valuable, you let me do it for a while."

Lin Hao squeezed out a smile and said uncomfortably.

"Five Sisters......"

Without waiting for Zhu Gaoxu to finish speaking, Princess Xianning smashed her angry fist on Lin Hao's chest: "It must be very painful, you lie down for me, don't work anymore these days." ”

"You're too partial, I didn't see my second brother lying here, why don't you care......"

"You shut up for me, Brother Lin has been busy all night, he must be hungry, what do you want to eat, Ning'er will let people do it."

Princess Xianning glared at Zhu Gaoxu, and then looked at Lin Hao with affection.

"Fifth sister, look at you politely, just get ...... for the second brother"

"Shut up, it's Brother Lin who is asking!"

Princess Xianning kicked over.

Zhu Gaoxu fell to the ground in pain, revealing a little resentful look, staring at Lin Hao, it was really a big woman!

"Lord Song, you let the guy stew the meat section and send it to the canal, you must be full, the big guys have worked hard, I'll just eat some casually."

Lin Hao waved his hand.

Pressed Peaches open the door.

A group of maids walked in with plates.

"Lord Lin, you must be hungry, lunch has been prepared, there are 100 crab noodles, jade crushed three matches, hibiscus crab bucket, Jiangnan Baihua chicken, milk soup pot fish ......"

Momoko's eyes were full of concern, and before dawn, she asked the accompanying cook to start preparing.

Lin Hao's whole person was petrified directly on the spot, just after saying it, just say it, just casually, you give me this whole play, slap in the face.

A hint of drama flashed in Zhuxi's eyes, it can be regarded as revealing stuffing, a mouthful of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but doing this kind of thing.

"Thank you, Sister Peach, Brother Lin hurry up and taste it while it's hot."

Princess Xianning scooped a spoonful of fish soup with a jade spoon, blew it and handed it to Lin Hao's mouth.

Zhuxi's face was full of black lines, Ning'er was poured some ecstasy soup by Lin Hao.

"It's still a peach and considerate, this hundred crab noodles are the most favorite in this palace!"

As soon as Zhu Gaoxu picked up the chopsticks, he felt a chill in his back, looking at Princess Xianning's murderous eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched, and the hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly: "These are soups that don't make you hungry, there are cooking cakes in the back kitchen, take a few for the palace." ”

"Ning'er, I'm not a pig, how can I eat so much, Lord Song hasn't eaten yet, eat some together."

Lin Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Then you're welcome."

Song Li rubbed his hand on his sleeve, grabbed a hibiscus crab bucket, stuffed it into his mouth, and his constricted brows suddenly relaxed.

"It's better for Brother Lin, I'll try this hundred crab noodles, if only there were two more heads of garlic......"

"Did Brother Lin let you eat, and you just did it? Lord Song hurriedly took it hot, it wouldn't taste good if it was cold for a while. ”

Princess Xianning snatched the plate containing 100 crab noodles in Zhu Gaoxu's hand and pushed it in front of Song Li.

"Fifth sister, you're not kind, the second brother treats you well on weekdays, why do you target the second brother everywhere?"

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly stopped.

"Brother Lin is a scholar, how can you do this kind of rough work, you don't pull it, you deserve it!"

Princess Xianning glanced at Zhu Gaoxu angrily.

If the second brother tied up Brother Lin, how could he be so embarrassed, it was distressing to watch!

"Understood, co-authoring the palace is a joke, and the palace can't go!"

Zhu Gaoxu was so aggrieved that he was about to cry, and Song Li, the grandson, patronized and ate, and he didn't say a word for himself.

A touch of cunning flashed in Song Li's eyes, who asked you to hide from Lao Tzu for anything with Lord Lin, the world will report it!

"Zhuxi, you can eat it too."

Lin Hao saw that Zhuxi had a lot of opinions about himself, so he took the initiative to show goodwill.

"Who's going to eat your stuff."

Zhu Xi snorted coldly and walked out of the camp tent.

"Brother Lin, Zhuxi, she has no malicious intentions, she is just playing a little girl's temperament, don't care."

Princess Xianning pulled the corners of Lin Hao's clothes, on the one hand, she was her own good sister, and on the other hand, she was her sweetheart, and she didn't want the conflict between the two to intensify.

"Don't worry, you won't have to worry about a little girl."

Lin Hao shook his head with a smile, I don't know why, this Nizi has such a big opinion about herself, and she doesn't seem to have offended her.

……

Each proprietor received a subsidy of a few hundred taels of silver, and everyone was as happy as a flower, and a pot of steaming pork stewed vermicelli was carried to the work area.

Pork stewed vermicelli in Daming, that is not an ordinary luxury, ordinary people, can only eat a meal during the New Year's holidays, not to mention these homeless people, many of them have grown so big, they have not even tasted what pork tastes like.

Although each person can only get a small spoonful, but they are dipped in steamed buns, and the one they eat is called a fragrant one.

Zhu Xi sat on the dam alone, his stomach gurgling, and his teeth itched with hatred: "Dead Lin Hao, it is clear that he is against the lord of this county!" ”

But he didn't realize it, although he hated it, he was really thinking about Lin Hao.

"Let's eat some, it's past lunch time, and I'm going to be hungry."

Lin Hao held an enamel bowl of pork stewed vermicelli, took two steamed buns, and handed them to Zhuxi.

"I won't even give this thing to the pigs!"

Zhu Xi knocked the enamel bowl to the ground, and the pork stewed vermicelli spilled all over the ground.

Lin Hao didn't say anything, just leaned down silently, rubbed the dusty steamed bun on his sleeve, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Immediately after that, he grabbed the pork stewed vermicelli that had been spilled on the ground into the enamel bowl and dipped it and ate it by himself.

"Look at these homeless people, in your eyes pig food is not counted, they eat so fragrant, you are the lord of the county, and you were born in this peaceful world, you don't know the suffering of the world since you were a child, and this steamed bun, a bowl of pork stewed vermicelli, is a food that can save people's lives."

"When I first arrived in Taoyuan to take up my post, there were floods for many years, no grain was harvested, and the grain was sold to sky-high prices, and ordinary people could not afford it.

"The old and weak women and children can't eat this thing, so they can only follow me to the next county to beg, Tong Tong is a child in the neighborhood, just because he robbed the rich man poured the swill for the dog to eat, and was bitten to death by the dog by the man, when I arrived with Zhao Mu, there was no complete place on the body, she was only seven years old at that time, what was her fault!?"

Lin Hao said as he ate the vermicelli with soil in the enamel bowl, his eyes were red, and his voice was slightly choked.
