Chapter 265 Sending to Fucheng
"Come here, and I also borrowed five taels of silver. I asked him to write the IOU and press his fingerprints before leaving!" Gu Qing handed the IOU to Mrs. Zhang.

Zhang was so angry that she almost threw all the children in her hands away: "Meng'er, it's not the third aunt who said you, because of you, I went back to my mother's house under the sun yesterday, so I went to find out clearly, and I will remind you when I come back. I told you not to associate with Sui Ran anymore, why didn't you listen?"

Gu Meng lowered her head and remained silent.

Mrs. Zhang was furious, but she was not her own biological child after all, and she couldn't say too much. She had to let Mrs. Song come back and handle this matter by herself.

After a while, Mrs. Gu, Mr. Gu, Mrs. Song and others all came back.

It's time to come back to have breakfast.

Mrs. Zhang gave the IOU to Mrs. Song, and Gu Qing told the whole story from the side.

Song Shi wanted to slap Gu Meng as soon as she raised her hand, but was caught by Gu Qing.

Gu Qing always felt that things were not that simple.

"Meng'er, tell me the truth, how did you fall in love with Sui Ran? Is it because he is good-looking?"

Gu Meng shook her head, "A month ago, when I came back from the cattle farm, I met a few people from other villages who molested me on the way... It was Sui Ran who showed up in time to save me..."

"Wait!" Gu Qing heard something tricky: "As the princess's cousin, it is impossible for such a short-sighted outsider to dare to tease you, and when you come back from the cattle farm, Sui Ran shouldn't Are you home from school already?"

When Gu Qing said this, the old lady Gu immediately understood: "Well, he is such a powerful young man, he actually plotted against my old lady!"

Song Shi pointed at Gu Meng's nose and cursed: "Quickly tell me, apart from these things, is there anything else?"

"Another time, I passed by a lotus pond, and for some reason, I fell into it. It was Sui Ran who pulled me up..."

"What?" Mrs. Song grabbed Gu Meng's arm: "Have you two ever avoided suspicion?"

"Avoid suspicion? How to avoid it?" The old lady Gu snorted coldly: "Fortunately, the initiative is in our hands. As long as we don't agree, he can't win Sui Ran. He wants to use this method to cling to our Gu family. dream!"

The old lady looked at Gu Qing and continued: "Qing'er, it's up to you, you can send Meng'er to Fucheng to work, as long as Meng'er is sent away, I don't believe that he can still do it. Come to the door."

"Yes, let's do it like this!" Mrs. Zhang said cheerfully, "Tomorrow I will take this IOU and go to Sui Ran's mother to ask for money!"

Gu Qing glanced at Gu Meng, this cousin was usually boring and seldom talked, she was commonly known as an honest person.

This kind of person is often the easiest to be tricked.

The love she thought was just a bait given by others, if this matter is not dealt with in time, it may ruin Gu Meng.

"Meng'er, come out for a while, we sisters can talk alone!"

Gu Qing walked in front, Gu Meng followed, and the two went all the way to the pavilion in the lotus pond.

"Come and sit!" Gu Qing patted the empty seat next to her: "Don't be afraid, I am your sister, and I will only stand by your side unconditionally. If you think about it carefully, if he plotted against you these two times, you Do you still like him? Even if he just uses you as a cash cow."

"I, I don't know." Gu Meng shook his head and murmured, "He went to school on the first day and didn't have rice paper, so I lent him it. How could he calculate me like this..."

Gu Qing patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "It's true that you are kind, but the mistake is that you met someone who is not worth it, well, don't think about it so much, you go back and pack your luggage, I will ask Xia Zhu to take you to Fucheng tomorrow , When you open your eyes in Fucheng, many things will naturally be let go. You are still young, you are only in your teens, don't ruin your entire youth just because of a rat shit."

"Sister..." Gu Meng's eyes were red, "I'm sorry for you!"

"What nonsense? We didn't lose anything. Why are you sorry for telling us?" Gu Qing said: "This is just a small episode of your adolescence, it's not a big deal, you are the cousin of Princess Rongchang. Is it such a thing? Still can't handle it?"

"Okay, it's strange that the sun is rising, so go back quickly."

After sending Gu Meng home, Gu Qing took Xia Zhu back.After a short day of exposure to the sun, the water in the rice fields has completely dried up, and the surface has begun to crack.

In the afternoon, Li was leading a large group of people hula la up the mountain.

In addition to labor, the women in the village also spontaneously went up the mountain to help. They didn't have so many tools for digging ditches, so they surveyed in advance where there were big rocks, and then blasted the rocks away with the method last night.

Even the children were enthusiastic. Those who collected firewood, those who carried water, and those who carried water, made the progress of work much faster.

After two days and one night, and half a day later, the laborers went from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.

A half-meter-wide cement ditch runs from the mountain to the field, extending vertically and horizontally to the rice fields of every household.

Li was leading people up the mountain, and the beginning of the ditch was still a palm away from the water source. The most important hoe was naturally handed over to Gu Qing, which had a solemn and solemn sense of ceremony.

Gu Qing raised the hoe, and dug down fiercely in the eyes of everyone.

The soil here is very soft, and without much effort, the gap was opened, and the torrent gushed out from the ground, rushing down the mountain along the ditch.

The children cheered and rushed down the mountain with the current. No one could run over the water. After a while, the water flowed to the foot of the mountain.

Countless farmers are looking forward to it.

The spring water sparkled dazzlingly under the scorching sun.

Like a silver dragon.

Like hope gushing out, rolling in.

It was obviously only a half-meter-wide ditch, but it was inexplicably magnified, and it looked like the sea was tumbling, and huge waves were coming.

The eyes of the old man in the village were red, and tears fell tremblingly.

"There is really water!"

"The water is coming!"

"The rice is saved!"

"No one will starve to death!"

The water flowed into the rice field beside the ditch, and the dry and cracked yellow land opened its mouth to swallow all the water. The dry field absorbed the water crazily. The water is coming.

The shriveled ears of rice seemed to be infused with hope, and they swayed under the scorching sun and in the summer wind.

The peasants standing on the ridge burst into tears of joy.

Those gangsters who couldn't dig the canal dug a gap in the ridge of their own fields while everyone was not paying attention, and the water flowed into their rice fields in an instant.

Someone saw this scene, but at this exciting moment, no one wants to be the first to argue with such a rascal, and besides, there is still a labor force in that man's family... from the same village, everyone Don't want to make things too ugly.

Just when everyone was rejoicing, a discordant voice sounded.

"Fuck! Why is there really water flowing down!"

When the villagers turned their heads, they saw a few people from Zhangjia Village mixed into the crowd at some point, and a man even spat into the ditch.

This time, it can be regarded as a public outrage.
