Getting rich peasant women will turn the world upside down

Chapter 332 Hot Summer

After drinking a glass of ice water that Yueying poured, Lin Wan'er felt that the heat and dryness had subsided a lot.

"I saw a lot of people praying for rain a few days ago, and I don't know if it's useful or not." Lin Wan'er never believed in ghosts and gods, but since she traveled through time, she has a rather trustworthy attitude towards ghosts and gods.It's just that she really doesn't like activities like praying for rain.After all, the rain is not really managed by the Dragon King or the God of Rain and Thunder God, but has something to do with the clouds.

"Who knows." Yue Ying was also a little worried, she frowned and said, "Miss, I went out the other day and saw a lot of beggars in our town. It is said that they came from the south, and there was a county town there. There was a severe drought, and there was even less rain than here, and many people couldn't stand it and escaped."

"There is such a thing?" Lin Wan'er frowned after hearing this. If it is true, this situation is a bit serious.However, those officials who suffer the people must do something, right?You can't just watch the people displaced and do nothing, "What about the local officials? Don't they care? No wonder this situation shouldn't be reported to the court?"

"Miss, you don't know that the county magistrate of each county is just a seventh-rank sesame official. Even if something really happens and reports the situation, it can't be passed directly to the capital, and the local magistrate can only take over. But usually when such things happen, the magistrate is usually unwilling to report it, because if the matter is not handled well, the magistrate will be punished by the people above, and even more serious will be demoted. Therefore, it is not a particularly serious situation. If the magistrate can let the magistrate solve it, he will try his best to let the magistrate solve it, and if he can hide it, he will hide it."

When Lin Wan'er watched ancient costume dramas before, she also saw that some local officials always reported good news but not bad news. She didn't expect that it was true that dramas came from life.

"Then do they just watch the people starve to death?" Lin Wan'er felt very angry. She comes from the 21st century, and she doesn't value human life as much as the people here. In her opinion, every human life is extremely important. Yes, "We must take some practical actions, don't we?"

"That's what I said, but which official is not greedy? It means that the top has really allocated funds or goods, and after layers of exploitation, how much can be left for the people? In the end, isn't it still cheap? Those corrupt officials." Yueying said as she shook her head, looking helpless.

When Lin Wan'er was told by Yue Ying, her mood immediately became depressed.Don't those officials really treat the people as human beings?They don't care if they are starved to death?This is too...

Lin Wan'er was very angry in her heart, but so what if she was angry, right?She is not an official, so what can she do for them?

Not only has it not rained in the past few days, but the temperature is getting higher and higher.According to Lin Wan'er's estimate, the outdoor temperature is about 36 degrees, and it's almost impossible to stay outside for a moment.Even if it is indoors, it is too hot and stuffy without wind, and ice cubes are not so good, so I can only use it sparingly every day.

Lin Wan'er misses modern air conditioners and fans very much now.

It stands to reason that the ambient air in ancient times was good, and even if the weather was hot, it would not be unbearable. However, it has not rained for a long time, resulting in very dry air. If you look carefully, the ground is tossed to the point of smoking. , so much hotter than usual.

So Lin Wan'er usually stays in the room, and then pushes away Moon Shadow, while she hides in the space.

The temperature in the space is constant throughout the year, about [-] degrees, which is the most suitable.
