Poison concubine enchanting

Chapter 109 Building the Embankment
Shen Hua saw her words from the bottom of her heart, and she didn't doubt him, so she shifted her doubts to the main point.

"You said Yasha has a way to help us solve the problem? This is not a trivial matter. The construction of the river lift is a big project that requires a lot of manpower and material resources."

Wen Xiaochan had a smile on her face when she heard the words, she was very gentle, she said shallowly.

"What Madam said is very true. Our family has nothing but a small wood workshop. We rely on logging to earn living expenses on weekdays. There are also many workers in the workshop. I think it should be enough."

Shen Hua's eyes lit up, Mo Xuan really hit it off, the boat would naturally go straight when it reached the bridge, and now there was a ferry for their boat to cross.When Mo Xuan came back, Shen Hua eagerly told him the news, Mo Xuan chuckled softly, and teased him.

"Madam, can you not be depressed now?"

Shen Hua raised her eyebrows in a good mood, her tone light.

"I'm in a good mood."

Suddenly, a white light flashed outside, followed by a deafening sound, and Shen Hua was startled. When he came back to his senses, he was tightly pressed against Mo Xuan's body, and Mo Xuan's words came from his chest.

"Ma'am afraid of thunder?"

Shen Hua got up and said lightly.

"Not afraid."

It's just some shadows. After all, the day his parents died, there was thunder in the sky, but now it's just touching the scene, as if confirming what Shen Hua said, it was another thunder, and Shen Hua shook his body tightly. Make a fist.

Suddenly the palm of her hand was wrapped, Mo Xuan's palm was warm, Shen Hua's cold hand instantly felt warm, she turned around, Mo Xuan took a step forward and gently hugged her in his arms, pressing her face sideways on the Chest, covering her other exposed ear with her hand, the muffled figure still passed from her chest to Shen Hua's ear.

"That way you can't hear it."

There was another burst of white light flashing outside the house, but Shen Hua did not hear the thunder anymore, only the sound of Mo Xuan's strong heartbeat could be heard in her ears, she gradually frowned, her heart was at peace like never before.

Mo Xuan embraced Shen Hua with doting eyes, seeing Shen Hua relax, he couldn't help but also relax.Naturally, there would be no such coincidence in the world. He went to the cell, found Yasha, threatened and lured him, Yasha was a tight-lipped man, and he still didn't tell the truth for a long time, but when Mo Xuan mentioned Wen Xiaochan, he His eyes narrowed sharply, Mo Xuan knew that Wen Xiaochan was the Achilles' heel.

In the end, Yasha still said that the real mastermind of this plan was Ruan Zhishan. This was something Mo Xuan had known for a long time. things.

Under the leadership of Wen Xiaochan, Shen Hua and Mo Xuan came to what she called the "small wood workshop". The yard in front of them was as big as five schools, standing in a corner of the small town in the south of the Yangtze River. Shen Hua had a second thought Well, this small town in the south of the Yangtze River is only a small town in name, but it is enough to be compared with the capital of Chang'an. In comparison, it will only be worse than it is.

Shen Hua came back to his senses, Wen Xiaochan stepped into the wooden workshop first, Shen Hua and Mo Xuan also stepped in slowly, the air was filled with a pleasant smell of sawdust, the fragrance was elegant, Shen Hua's eyes were attracted by a big man, only Seeing that he was carrying a piece of wood on his shoulders, it was as thick as a person's arms, but he didn't mean to be troubled at all.

Wen Xiaochan looked at the man approaching, and called out with a smile.

"Brother Chang Dong."

When Chang Dong saw Wen Xiaochan, a smile appeared on his rough face, but the smile froze when he touched Mo Xuan and Shen Hua. He looked at them coldly, his voice was hoarse but powerful.

"Xiao Chan, what did you bring Master Guoshi and his wife to our small workshop for?"

It's not hard to hear the sarcasm in the tone, Mo Xuan's face was light, Shen Hua was also unmoved, Wen Xiaochan was a little embarrassed seeing the situation, she said.

"Brother Chang Dong, the national teacher and his wife are here to help us. Our river bank is almost overwhelmed. Only by building a new floor can we ensure that it will not collapse before the next rain."

Chang Dong paused, then frowned.

"The national teacher angered the river god, even if he built a river tower, it would be useless."

Shen Hua couldn't help feeling depressed for a while, do these people prefer to believe in ghosts and gods, rather than resist this disaster by themselves?She took a step forward and patted the eager Wen Xiaochan on the shoulder lightly, her tone was light but very oppressive.

"Let me ask you, you keep talking about the God of the River, but have you ever seen the God of the River? Or, someone in the south of the Yangtze River has seen the God of the River?"

Chang Dong choked, he was not good at words, so he said with a blushing face.

"The river god is a god, how could he appear in front of people so easily?"

Shen Ye sneered, his voice cold.

"If the river god you are talking about is a god, how could he watch his people fall into such a disaster, and how could he accept the two fresh lives offered by you?"

Chang Dong completely lost his words, he was lost in thought, and Shen Hua took advantage of the victory to pursue.

"Rain is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster. You can't complain. You can only work hard to ensure that you don't die under this disaster. Now you are wasting your energy on unnecessary ghosts and gods. Isn't it stupid?"

Following Shen Hua's voice, people stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Shen Hua. Shen Hua's expression remained calm, and the corners of Mo Xuan's lips twitched slightly. He had never doubted his wife's language ability.

Seeing the worker lost in thought, Shen Hua slowed down her voice.

"Is there anyone who is willing to build Heti with me now?"

When the words fell to the ground, the audience was completely silent, Shen Hua was not in a hurry, and waited quietly, Chang Dong gritted his teeth.

"I go!"

It has been like this since ancient times, as long as one person starts, it seems to give people a reassurance, and people keep echoing.

"I'll go as well."

"I am coming too!"

In the end, there was only one person in the whole wood workshop who did not respond. It was a man around 30 years old with a beard and melancholy eyes. Shen Hua looked at him and said calmly.

"Is this brother unwilling?"

The man looked at Shen Hua and said leisurely.

"If we all go to build Heti, we will openly oppose the God of the River."

"This brother would rather believe in the river god he has never seen before than himself?"

The man's words were interrupted by Shen Hua, who glanced at him and continued.

"This brother is actually not worried about going against the God of the River, but Master Ruan Zhishan, right?"

The man's eyes were heavy, and he was silent for a while. Everyone thought of this question. The biggest force in Jiangnan is the Ruan family. It is not only a scholarly family, but also has official positions as the backing. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Ruan family is the emperor of Jiangnan. Shen Hua chuckled lightly.

"Does Xiongtai think that our master's office is incapable of competing with the Ruan family?"

The man was taken aback, then smiled in relief.

"I forgot, so I will go to build Heti with my wife."

Shen Hua nodded in satisfaction, and after looking around, she said to Chang Dong.

"Okay, we are now divided into three parts. First of all, everyone divides into teams on their own. The first team is strong."

The whole wood workshop is full of men, needless to say about their strength, almost most of them stood aside, Shen Hua frowned, the distribution would not be even if it continued like this, Mo Xuan, who had been silent all this time, said lightly.

"This type of person basically needs a huge workload. Think about it for yourself. What you need is leg strength and arm strength."

Two conditions were added, and the workers looked at each other in dismay and glanced at each other. It is good to actively participate, but what Shen Hua needs is not their courage, but the truly powerful people who have been selected.

After a short time, the workers who had been crowded in one place dispersed, leaving only one-third of the people in the workshop. Shen Hua took a look and found that almost all of them were burly men, she continued.

"The second team, people who can swim."

The crowd started to move again, and after a while, they were ready, Shen Hua paused, and continued.

"Okay, now the rest of the people go to the back mountain to bring some stones over, divide into two groups, and you form your own team.

The construction of the river lift requires more than just wood. Wood is good, but the weight ratio of wood is not as ingenious as stone. Using stone to make the river lift, and wood to disperse the water power, in this way, it should be able to withstand this flood. Shen Hua After the order was given, the remaining team started to move, and the people from the two teams became anxious, Chang Dong was the most impatient, he asked.

"Ma'am, what are we going to do?"

Shen Hua glanced at him and said slowly.

"Chang Dong's team transported the wood from the workshop to Heti, and the rest of the team put on their clothes and went to Heti to stand by. Attention, you are going to enter the water. If you feel unwell, get out as soon as possible. , otherwise it will drag everyone down."

Shen Hua's voice was not loud, and her tone was not harsh, but each worker became quiet. Shen Hua didn't look very old, but he could command with such a calm and composed manner, which was really admirable.

After the division of labor was clarified, Shen Hua and Mo Xuan returned to Ruan's Mansion. Now that the problem of building the river was solved and people's hearts were drawn back, the only thing left was this weird rain disaster.

Jiangnan is a rainy place, but there are some poetic and picturesque light rains. This rain disaster is really frightening, and then ignores the root of the problem. Whether this rain is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster is still unknown.

It has been many days since I saw Shu Tian'er. Since she came back with them, she has disappeared. She was not even present at the sacrificial ceremony. Shen Hua was puzzled. The child disappeared, and even Ruan Zhishan disappeared.In this huge mansion, she and Mo Xuan were the only two guests left, but there were still many servants in the mansion.

Shen Hua remembered that Shu Tian'er had told her that only his grandfather was at home in the Ruan family. Her two uncles, one in Chang'an and the other in the school, seldom came back, but they never mentioned Ruan Zhishan. What is the relationship, Shen Hua has no way of knowing.

She was sitting in the room, looking out of the window boredly, it was raining lightly today, it was the normal rain in Jiangnan, it was hazy like a thin layer of mist, covering the small town of Jiangnan, it was really beautiful , There is also a garden in the yard of Ruan's family. The flowers in it are very strange. It is clearly not the season that should be blooming, but the ones that bloom are beautiful.

In Shen Hua's memory, there is only one person who can do this, and that is the butler of the Luo family. His thoughts just flashed by, and Shen Hua didn't care. What made her curious was that the head of the Ruan family was Shu How come Tian'er's grandfather hasn't shown his face in these few days.

The hibiscus flowers outside the house were in full bloom, Shen Hua rested her beard and was thinking wildly, suddenly a strange fragrance wafted into Shen Hua's nose, Shen Hua was startled, she sniffed the strange fragrance, frowned, If she guessed right, that fragrance was the fragrance made of women's body fragrance that she got from Lushui back then. She got up and followed the strange fragrance.

The fragrance emanated from a room. Shen Hua looked at the room in front of him and his heart skipped a beat. This is not another place, but the place where the Ruan family is the head of the house. Shen Hua was wandering outside the house, thinking of turning around and leaving However, she suddenly smelled other smells in this strange fragrance, and her steps stopped just now, she stared at the room, feeling extremely entangled in her heart.

In the end, Shen Hua still took steps and walked into the room. The room was not locked, so Shen Hua gently pushed the door and opened it. As the door opened, the strange fragrance became stronger and stronger, and the smell in the fragrance became more and more obvious. Shen Hua slowed down and walked in step by step.
