Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 1179

"Mu Zichuan, what do you want from us?"

Yang Ruoqing's voice came from the main room door along with her footsteps.

Mu Zichuan followed the sound, and his eyes fell on Yang Ruoqing.

I haven't seen her for several months, and the girl has grown taller again, becoming more and more graceful and slender, with a delicacy and beauty.

The characteristics and charm of women are becoming more and more obvious.

In Mu Zichuan's eyes, a gleam of joy quietly passed by.

Before he could speak, Lao Yang couldn't help but frowned.

"Qing'er, don't be rude, this is a disaster relief official sent by the imperial court, you have to call your lord..." Old Yang said.

"what?"

Yang Ruoqing was stunned, a little displeased with Old Yang's groveling manner.

"There are no outsiders here, sir, are you too nervous?"

"Hehe, if that's the case, I'm not a commoner either."

She turned around and took Luo Fengtang's arm beside her.

"Tang Yazi is a general, and I am the wife of a quasi-general. Maybe I can be a lady of high command in the future! Mu Zichuan, don't you think so?"

Mu Zichuan was embarrassed.

He glanced at Luo Fengtang's arm that Yang Ruoqing was holding tightly, and lowered his eyelashes.

Then, she turned her head and said to Old Yang: "Grandpa Yang, Qing'er is right. Although I was sent by the imperial court to assist in disaster relief, I am also a member of Changping Village."

"There are no outsiders here. If you can avoid those vain etiquette, so as not to be restrained by each other's words and actions."

Mu Zichuan's words made Lao Yang's cheeks burn.

Yang Ruoqing squinted at Old Yang's head.

Hey, did you flatter me on the horse's leg?
Live it!

At the Eight Immortals Table, Mu Zichuan stood up and said to everyone, "Just now, I have asked all of you about the disaster situation."

"No matter how much you ask, you don't have to go for a walk and see for yourself."

"Qing'er, Tang Yazi, can you bother me to go outside with me and see how the surrounding villages are affected by the disaster?" Mu Zichuan asked.

Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other.

If he asked them to go out with him to see the scenery, they would surely spray him to death with a mouthful of salt soda.

It's different now, he came back to provide disaster relief.For this kind of request, even if he didn't mention it, the two of them would take the initiative to do it.

Luo Fengtang nodded cheerfully: "Okay!"

Mu Zichuan turned his questioning eyes on Yang Ruoqing again.

What he was looking forward to most was her nodding in agreement.

Yang Ruoqing curled her lips into a smile: "Husband sings and wife follows, of course we go together!"

Mu Zichuan also nodded, unable to tell whether it was sad or happy.

Seeing that the three of them were about to go out, Lao Yang and the others all came together again.

"Juren old..."

Realizing what, Lao Yang and the others hurriedly changed their words.

"Brother Zichuan, what, you just got off the boat and didn't drink a few sips of tea."

"Why don't you check the situation after lunch? You haven't seen Lingtang yet..." Old Yang said.

Mu Zichuan frowned slightly and said, "The disaster is like fire, there is no delay."

"Since I'm back, there's no rush to meet my mother right now."

After saying this, he turned around and said to Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang who were waiting at the door, "Let's go!"

"okay!"

Yang Ruoqing responded readily, and before leaving, she couldn't help but glance at Old Yang's head.

Grandpa, what's the matter?
Why is it so obvious that Mu Zichuan's dedication is so important?

What do you want to curry favor with?
Hey, if a person keeps thinking about kneeling down, the people next to him won't be able to pull him up.

Speechless!
……

The three of them left the house in a small boat.

Luo Fengtang punted the boat, and Mu Zichuan was standing on the bow, without a folding fan in his hand to pretend to be a talented scholar.

Instead, he took a long penny.

Yang Ruoqing was standing beside him, holding a string of ropes in her hands, with several weights tied to one end of the ropes.

The three of them first drew a circle around Changping Village to test the depth of the water levels in different areas.

Then, the boat passed through the village and checked the damage of every household.

Seeing the dead chickens and ducks floating in the water, as well as other rotting animal corpses floating in the water, Mu Zichuan frowned tightly.

"The loss is too serious, it's a waste of life!"

He sighed softly.

This road came from Wanghai County, and wherever it went, there was nothing but desolation.

Came down with great ambitions to provide disaster relief and water control, but when the disaster relief was in Baiquan Town below Wanghai County.

A dam in Baiquan Town broke, the moment the flood rushed out like a ferocious beast.

He could only watch helplessly as the wives and children of the people were washed away by the flood.

Such a small child rushed past him.

He jumped into the water to pull, took the child's hand.

But the current was so fast that his hand was washed away in a short while, and the child was gone.

If it wasn't for the timely rescue of the accompanying guards, he would probably have been washed away by the flood.

The child's body was found the next afternoon...

The ambitions he had when he left Beijing were suddenly poured with cold water.

"Heaven is ruthless, treats the common people as straw dogs!"

"In the face of such a catastrophe, manpower is so insignificant!"

Thinking of the sad place, Mu Zichuan couldn't help but said in a deep voice, with a sad and gloomy look on his face.

Hey, why is there no one to comfort me?
Where did Qinger go?
Mu Zichuan turned his head and saw that the side was empty, and Yang Ruoqing went to the side of Luo Fengtang who was punting at the stern of the boat at some point.

At the stern of the boat, Yang Ruoqing was pointing at the dead animals floating in the water.

"Didn't Uncle Lizheng take the men who know water in the village to pick up these animal carcasses and dispose of them? Why are there so many?"

She frowned, with a bit of dissatisfaction in her tone.

"These things float in the water, not to mention giving off a stench, and they also dirty the water, a bunch of viruses."

"When the skin comes into contact with these waters, it may cause sores and pus, and it may also be infected with the plague. At that time, it will be a real disaster!"

Hearing this, Luo Fengtang also had a serious face.

He stuffed the penny in his hand to Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, you accompany Mu Zichuan to inspect the disaster situation, I'll go back and organize people to salvage these things!"

Yang Ruoqing grabbed him and said, "You don't have to go back now, the water is dirty, I won't allow you to swim back."

"After checking the disaster situation, it's not too late for you to row out to fish!" she said.

Luo Fengtang had no choice but to stay, and continued to punting.

Yang Ruoqing turned back to Mu Zichuan.

Mu Zichuan heard everything she said just now.

At this moment, she is looking at Yang Ruoqing with admiration: "Qing'er, your concern is very good. After the inspection is over, I will go back and call on everyone to salvage it."

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

"We have been salvaging for the past few days, but some things were not found at the time. Maybe they were pressed in some corners and washed up by the water later." She said.

Mu Zichuan said 'hmm'.
