I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 128 Want to go home

In the blink of an eye, the letter from the Zhou family was delivered to the barracks. Li Zheng personally delivered the letter on horseback. He reported his name outside the barracks. After checking his identity, he could not enter the barracks.

In Li Zheng's eyes, the young man's face was disheveled, his eyes were particularly blue, and he lost weight twice, his eyes widened, "Little son, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Lin was in a trance. He slept less than dogs recently, woke up earlier than chickens, and was angry every day. It was strange that he was in good spirits, "You came to pick me up?"

The expressions of the guards behind Zhou Lin changed. Mr. Zhou Xiao left, and they were even worse off, "Sir, you can't leave."

Zhou Lin's face was sullen, he wanted to go home, and he didn't want to face uneducated students.

Li Zheng was a little embarrassed, "Well, I'm here to deliver a letter and a change of clothes."

Saying that, he lifted up the letters and baggage.

Zhou Lin wanted to cry, so he continued to teach stupid students, took the burden and touched the money, and was puzzled.

Li Zheng explained: "My son gave it to the little son, and told you not to write to him without money."

Zhou Lin gritted his teeth, "I really thank him."

Yang San doesn't want him to go home!He ate well and drank well in the barracks, there was no place to spend any money, and the beams given by the general were also high, and now he has saved five taels of silver!

Li Zheng has to rush back, and there are still many things at home that he needs to be busy with, "Young Master, do you want to reply?"

Zhou Lin knew that he couldn't go back, so he hugged his burden tightly, "Go back."

Li Zheng also brought another letter to General Bai, which had already been sent to the barracks first.

After Zhou Lin wrote the reply, General Bai also replied and gave Li Zheng a silver reward for running errands.

The lieutenant saw Mr. Zhou Xiao looking eagerly at the horses that were passing away, and cleared his throat, "Mr. Xiao, it's time for class."

Zhou Lin, "."

Li Zheng returned to Shanghe Village a day later than expected, and it was still dinner time when he returned.

Zhou Yu saw that Li Zheng was a little embarrassed, "What happened?"

Li Zheng, "I suffered a disaster. When I went to the barracks, there were no officials blocking the road. On the way back, there were more officials blocking the road. It happened to encounter a conflict, so I was so embarrassed."

Fortunately, there are horses. Not everyone can raise horses. He reported the name of the county magistrate, and then he came back smoothly.

Yang San was surprised, "Block the road?"

Li Zhengdao: "I inquired about the order of the prefect."

Zhong Yan pondered for a moment, "For the autumn harvest?"

Yang Xi thought of the newly opened grain store in the county, "Prevent other forces from buying grain."

Yang San signaled Li Zheng to go back to rest, "It should be, Ruizhou has a good harvest, and the magistrate is afraid that all the food will be bought."

Zhou Yu, "The fight started before the food was confiscated."

Yang San looked at the letter Li Zheng put on the table, "Brother-in-law, don't you see what General Bai said?"

Zhou Yu opened the letter, and General Bai said he knew it. He would go to Fucheng in a few days, so they didn't have to worry. He also said that he would leave Zhou Xiaodi. In the barracks, Zhou Xiaodi not only taught the generals to read and write, but also taught the promoted generals. It counts, there are twelve beam repairs every month!
Zhou Yu, "My little brother has become the most profitable one in the family."

Yang San also noticed the bundle of ten taels of silver, tsk tsk, and then his eyes lit up!
Zhong Yan stroked his beard, "Let's just listen to General Bai."

The next day, Zhou Yu deliberately took time to see Lizheng. He had already mentioned that Lizheng had more grain, and again he asked Lizheng not to sell grain. A village is a weather vane, and Lizheng does not sell grain. More or less will follow Li Zheng.

Lizheng's family is a huge family with many in-laws. Liu Lizheng also asked his sons to talk to their in-laws. Mr. Zhou mentioned twice in a row that Lizheng was even more worried about food. Whenever he had time, he would go to the fields to look at the rice.

The river level rose that day, and there was no rain in Ruizhou. Zhou Yu and his wife went to see the river level specially, and they were very uneasy.

The next day, Liu Li was rushing to Zhou's house, and when he entered the door, he said, "Sir, there is a corpse of a cow in the river."

Zhou Yu motioned to Zhong Xu to manage the school, he put down the chalk and came out, "I'll go to the river to have a look."

Liu Lizheng was sweating, "The river water has also become turbid, and there must be a flood of water upstream."

Zhou Yu said as he walked: "Don't drink the water from the river, drink the boiled well water."

Liu Lizheng has experience, "Yesterday, the water level was not right, so I told the people."

Because of the rising water level, many people checked by the river. The water in the river was particularly turbid. There were not only the carcasses of cows, but also other animals, chickens and sheep, and cloth strips could be seen on some messy branches.

Zhou Yu can already confirm that there is a flood in the upstream.

Liu Lizheng kept thanking his ancestors, "Blessed by my ancestors, fortunately the county magistrate repaired the dam."

Zhou Yu thought that the county must also be in dire straits, Zhong Jin wanted to send people to watch over the dam and warn the people not to drink the river water and so on.

Zhou Yu stood for a while, "I'll go to the county town to ask for news, can you always be with me?"

Liu Lizheng shook his head, "Sir, go ahead, I have other things to arrange."

Zhou Yu took a carriage to the county, and waited for a while at the county office before seeing Brother Zhong, who went out to check the dam.

Zhong Jin came in with a relaxed expression, "This year the dam has been repaired again, and it can withstand the amount of water."

"That's good, but there's a flood upstream?"

Zhong Jin nodded, "Well, the weather was sweltering a few days ago. It rained upstream, and the torrential rains washed away the dams. I have sent someone to check, but I don't know the situation upstream."

Zhou Yu, "Xiang County is not close to the border, so I don't know if the refugees will come to Xiang County."

"Gu Zhifu attaches great importance to this year's harvest and will not provide food for disaster relief. You also know that Gu Zhifu has set up roadblocks. I think Gu Zhifu will stop the refugees at the border."

Zhou Yu said, "Prefect Gu set up a blockade, he already knew something was wrong upstream."

Zhong Jin said in a low tone, "Who knows!"

Zhou Yu's heart ached for the food, "The rice in the first section is about to mature."

"Yeah, the second season of rice can't be planted, and I don't know how many upstream states were affected."

Zhou Yu sighed, "Regardless of the affected states, Ruizhou's food is being targeted."

Zhong Jin is the county magistrate, and he knows exactly which forces are in Xiangxian County. "The Huang family is married to a daughter. Now the Huang family is working for Gu Zhifu. When the rice is mature, the Huang family will buy food for Gu Zhifu."

Zhou Yu thought of the Hu family, "Shanghe Village is a big village with many paddy fields, and the Huang family will not let Shanghe Village go."

"Ah."

Fortunately, Zhou Yu reminded Li Zheng in advance. As for whether the Hu family sells food or not, he doesn't care. Speaking of which, there are quite a few paddy fields in the Hu family.

Zhong Jin continued: "I have news that I will send to Shanghe Village, so don't bother going back and forth on such a hot day."

Zhou Yu drank another cup of herbal tea, "How is the situation in Quanzhou?"

Zhong Jin said, "There are no big rivers in Quanzhou, and we are not afraid of more rain. There are no natural disasters, and various forces are making great noise."

Quanzhou has no checks and balances between Gu Zhifu and General Bai. Quanzhou's prefect and generals have colluded and are devouring various families in Quanzhou. Quanzhou is extremely lively.
