Chapter 224
Water pipes are needed to divert water, but they don't exist in this era. Rong Jiu planned to use bamboo instead. Seeing that it was still early, the two of them went up the mountain to cut bamboo.

Qin saw that both of them were holding axes and hatchets in their hands: "What are you doing?"

Rong Jiudao: "I live halfway up the mountain now, and it's very inconvenient to carry water. We plan to cut some bamboo to make pipes to bring water home."

Qin was taken aback: "Water diversion is a big project, just the two of you, I don't know when it will be finished, I will ask your elder brother to come over and help you do it together."

Qin turned around and was about to find Shen Wenhong, but Rong Jiu hurriedly grabbed her: "No need, sister-in-law, we can do it."

Qin took advantage of the situation to hold Rong Jiu's wrist, raised it, and joked: "Look at your wrist, it's thin and tender, not as thick as those bamboos, how can it compare to the menial work of chopping bamboos? If they don't, who will?"

Rong Jiu smiled: "Brother is a scholar, so he may not be stronger than me, so let's call him Second Brother."

"Both call together."

Shen Wenhong and Shen Wenyuan heard Qin's saying that Rong Jiu wanted to divert water, so they followed Qin's up the mountain without saying a word. Not long after, the brothers chopped down a lot of bamboo.

Several people first opened up the bamboo joints in the middle of the bamboo, and then moved them home, and then connected them one by one and put them on the fire to bake and shape them. In this way, all the bamboos can be spliced ​​together, and there is no fear of water leakage.

Several people were busy with their work, and Li's mother came over with Wang Baozhu's deed of prostitution.

Rong Jiu smiled and put away the deed of sale, and said to Li's mother, "Thank you for me, mother."

"The old slave has to go back and report to his wife, so I will take my leave first."

"Ah."

After Li's mother left, Rong Jiu looked at Wang Baozhu with a smile that was not a smile: "Since mother has her own heart, you can stay in the medicine field and weed."

Wang Baozhu's face froze, she couldn't believe it: "You asked me to do rough work?"

Rong Jiu looked at her slender fingertips and smiled: "After weeding, we must fertilize, otherwise the herbs will not grow well."

Wang Baozhu's face was ugly.

Rong Jiu suddenly asked, "What did Mrs. Zhao ask you to do?"

The deed of prostitution and the antidote were all in her hands, Wang Baozhu didn't even think about it, and blurted out: "She wants all the formulas in your hand."

Rong Jiu laughed: "I don't have a small appetite, and I'm not afraid of choking to death."

"What are you going to do?"

"Why, want to tip off the news?"

Wang Baozhu's face froze again, and said angrily, "We are on the same boat now, I just want to be safe."

"Your loyalty means nothing to me." Rong Jiu sneered coldly, with a stern look in her eyes, looking deeply into her heart, "I don't know one day, when you climb a high branch, you will also Come deal with me without breaking your hands."

That glance pierced through all her thoughts, and Wang Baozhu sneered: "It's easy to hide from an open spear, but hard to defend from a hidden arrow. Even if I want to deal with you, I have always been aboveboard, unlike Zhao's tricks and tricks. You are sure that you don't need it." I help?"

Rong Jiu showed a playful smile: "If I tell Mrs. Zhao what you said, tell me, how will Mrs. Zhao deal with those who betrayed her?"

Wang Baozhu's face turned pale slightly, he gritted his teeth and said, "You don't know?"

“How come you see?”

"If the goal is not achieved, Mrs. Zhao will not give up. Instead of being on guard everywhere, why not control everything. There is no one who can make better use of it than me, right?"

"There's some truth to what you said," Rong Jiu's lips curled into a half-smile, "You can go."

Wang Baozhu couldn't figure out what she was thinking, so he frowned and said, "You"

Rong Jiu's eyebrows moved, and when Wang Baozhu looked over, Wang Baozhu's heart tightened, and he wanted to leave with a cold face.

Rong Jiu suddenly said, "From this moment on, if you look at Shen Cheng more than once, I'll goug your eyes out."

Wang Baozhu paused, clenched her fingers tightly, and walked away stiffly.
