The rural life of a peasant girl

Chapter 224
"You two follow me closely, don't fall behind." Su Ling instructed, even years of pampered life could not erase her character. After climbing up the back mountain, she immediately walked into the jungle, saying logically There will always be streams or clear springs in the jungle. In the past, because of the Huaxi River, the village never lacked water sources. Of course, the villagers would not care about the mountain springs on the mountain, but now if they can find mountain springs, they should be able to solve the drinking water problem of some villagers, even if they can’t. Solve it all, but a little bit is better than nothing.

A few people wandered around in the forest, to be precise, Cha Zi and Yan Hong followed Su Ling, and Su Ling would push aside the thick layer of fallen leaves to look at the soil underground whenever he went to a place.

"Miss, what are you looking for? Let's help you find it together!" Chazi didn't understand her lady's behavior at all. Could it be that she went to the back mountain just to look at the soil through the fallen leaves.

"Oh! That's right! I forgot about the two of you." Su Ling immediately went into the work of looking for water sources as soon as he came up, and he forgot that there were two people by his side!

And Cha Zi and Yan Hong felt two black lines appearing on their foreheads, feeling that they had forgotten the two of them, and didn't remember the existence of the two of them.

"The two of you help me find where there are springs or streams in this mountain. When looking for them, pay attention to the soil. If the soil is wet, it proves that the springs are not far away." Su Ling said.

"Okay." Chazi and Yanhong also joined in the search.It's just that they have been to this back mountain many times, but they have never seen a mountain spring, and it is not easy to find it, but their own lady said there will be a mountain spring here, so there should be one, after all, their lady said It's something that has never been missed.

The drought situation became more and more serious. Su Ling and others also searched for more than ten days in the back mountain, but they still couldn't find the mountain spring. More and more people from Huaxi Village joined the search for the mountain spring.

Some of the villagers also became emotional.

"Is there really a mountain spring in this mountain? I have lived in this Huaxi Village for decades, and I have never seen any mountain springs. Our Huaxi Village has lived on this Huaxi River for generations, and now the river is almost dry. What are we going to do in the future!" A villager said sadly.

"Who says it's not! It's been many years, and I haven't seen such a severe drought. Look at these crops. If we can't find water, they will all dry up. Our food for this year will be gone."

"We should believe in Ling'er, look at the past two years, because of her, our life has improved, and she has improved the way of planting wheat, so our grain harvest will be bumper. I believe she said that there are springs in this mountain Then there must be."

"Yanhong, do you think there is really a mountain spring on the real mountain? We searched so long, not to mention the mountain spring, we didn't even see the shadow of the water." Chazi wiped the sweat stains on her forehead, it was only April , it shouldn’t be that hot, maybe it’s because it hasn’t rained for a long time, this year’s summer has come earlier, it’s only April, and it’s already very hot.

"They don't believe Miss, don't you believe it? Let's just look for it. When did Miss lie to us? Besides, look at Miss." Yan Hong pointed to Su Ling who was beside her. For the past ten days, Su Ling Every day, she goes out early and returns late, just to find springs in the mountains, regardless of her image. Now she is wearing the same clothes as the villagers, and they are all ordinary coarse cloth clothes. Water was also dug out from the well, which can make people feel a little bit more comforted, but those are far from enough, so Su Ling would come to the mountain every day, and she completely lost her ladylike posture in the past. Eating and drinking with the villagers is to solve the water problem as soon as possible. My own lady is like this, how can they be tired as maids!

Su Ling saw that there was no harvest again today, and also, they have no idea how big the mountain behind Huaxi Village is, and they haven't walked half of the mountain yet!Even if you know there is a mountain spring in it, it is not easy to find it! "Okay, everyone is tired today. We have been searching for more than ten days in a row. Tomorrow, we will have a good rest at home and then look again!" Su Ling said.

Don't say that Su Ling is in a hurry, even Mr. Feng is very anxious. If you want to say that in the past few years, because of the Su family in Huaxi Village, his political achievements have also improved gradually, and he will be able to go up again after this year. He went up to a higher level, but encountered a drought again. He heard that Su Ling was looking for a mountain spring, so he specially sent a few yamen servants from the yamen to help, hoping to find the spring water as soon as possible and save the people from the fire and water.

"Lin Yaguan, you guys spread out and protect the villagers going down the mountain. It's getting dark, and I'm afraid there will be snakes and insects." Although there are no large animals in this area, some snakes and rats are still there. There will be, especially now that the weather is hot and animals will come out to enjoy the shade in the evening, Su Ling is afraid that some villagers will be accidentally injured, and Mr. Feng sent these people to her, so she is naturally qualified to arrange for them to do things that's it.

"Understood, Miss Su." Yamen Lin asked a servant to lead the way, and every few villagers would have a servant, while he himself cut off his tail.

Fortunately, nothing happened along the way. She was impatient today and wanted to find the mountain spring earlier. She didn't have too many scruples, so a lot of time passed without realizing it, and the people next to her knew that she was impatient, and she was not in a good mood , so they didn't urge her.

"Okay, let's go back to eat first! You don't need to come back tomorrow, so take a good rest." Su Ling said.

The villagers and Su Ling all went home one after another after saying goodbye, and Su Ling also took Colorful and those yamen servants back in the direction of the Su family. These yamen servants were busy looking for Shanquan during this time, so Live in Su's house.

"Mother, big sister is back." Su Zixuan saw Su Ling's figure from a distance, and shouted inward.

"Aunt Liu, go and heat up the food!" Mother Su instructed Aunt Liu.

"Yes, ma'am."

When Su Zixuan outside saw Su Ling, he rushed up immediately, wanting Su Ling to hug him.

"Little Baozi, my sister's body is full of mud and sweat, so come if you're not afraid!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hands to hug Su Zixuan.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Baozi would immediately get out of the way as soon as he heard her say that.

Su Ling knew this little bun very well, she didn't have any bad habits, but she was obsessed with cleanliness, she didn't understand, no one in his family had this eccentricity, how did he become like this.

"Sister, you must be exhausted. Mother has nagged you several times. Hurry up and wash up and eat!"

Su Ling walked into the courtyard, washed his face with water, and walked to the dining room.

And those servants were also taken to the kitchen by Cha Zi and Yan Hong.
