Chapter 580
Lin Wan slept very hard this time, and the movements caused by Lin Wu, Ye Shen and Qi Zhenxing all slipped and affected her sleep.
It was not until Chuncao, Zhang and Zhu Lingling's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law brought the raincoats they made overnight to the backyard of the county government, that Lin Wan woke up slowly amid the noise of the children.
Lin Wan's body became heavier and heavier, and she seemed clumsy. She stopped persevering under the persuasion of Madam Zhang, and let Siqin and Sizhu wait for her to wear and wash.
Sitting in front of the dressing table and listening to the laughter of the children outside, maybe I finally had a good night's sleep. Lin Wan's complexion was much better than yesterday, and even Lin Wan herself felt that she was in good spirits today.
"How is the situation outside?" Lin Wan looked at herself in the bronze mirror, turned her head to look at Siqin and asked.
This is almost something Lin Wan must ask when she wakes up early every day after she comes to Caizhu.
After serving Lin Wan for more than half a year, Siqin and Sizhu didn't know Lin Wan's temperament well, but they had already understood it very thoroughly. Instead of hiding it secretly, it would be better to say it clearly, so naturally, you will answer Lin Wan's questions.
"At the morning of the morning, Lin Wu rushed to inform my sister-in-law that the water level of the Chishui River had almost risen to the cordon, so my sister-in-law hurried to the riverside. I guess he had already broken the dike and discharged the flood as planned." Siqin first talked about the situation in the Chishui River.
Lin Wan couldn't help but sighed deeply after hearing this. She had to accept the impact of flood discharge in Nanzhu to the villagers of Nanzhu, and also felt sorry for the possibility that her investment might be wasted.
Even though Lin Wan has not been able to say anything to Ye Shen for several days recently, Lin Wan still knew about the magistrate's office sending three documents to Nanzhu.
Lin Wan has her own opinion on the designated flood discharge in Nanzhu, and is also deeply worried about Ji Kang's situation.
The prefect's yamen repeatedly "forced" Nanzhu's side to break the dike and release the flood. Zhu Lingling, as a family member of the county yamen, and Zhang and others had very objections. Zhu Lingling even questioned Ji Kang's intentions to Lin Wan.
In Zhu Lingling's view, since Ji Kang is the gentleman of Ye Shen and Lin Zimo, he should consider it more for Ye Shen and Lin Zimo and tend to lean towards Nanzhu in terms of policies and economy. However, Ji Kang became the prefect of Yuzhou and did not see the support of Nanzhu from the prefect's office.
As a result, when Nanzhu needed the help of the prefect, he received three documents in a short time asking Nanzhu to break the dike and release the flood as soon as possible, and his words were harsher than the other.
Could it be that the people of Yuzhou are human beings, and the people of Nanzhu are not human beings?
Lin Wan was also angry, but she knew her husband better than Zhu Lingling, so she felt more worried.
Although before Ji Kang left Nanzhu, he said that he would not give Nanzhu more policies just because Ye Shen and Lin Zimo were his students, Lin Wan knew in her heart that as long as Ye Shen and Lin Zimo needed Ji Kang's support, Ji Kang would definitely overcome all difficulties and give support.
Lin Wan didn't have much opportunity to go out for a walk, but it didn't mean she knew nothing.
Lin Wan has her convenience and advantages, that is, she is easy to ask, and Ye Shen is also happy to answer her questions.
Ye Shen even spread out the map to explain the terrain and landform of the entire Yuzhou to Lin Wan. The situation along the Chishui River is one of the key contents of the Q&A.
Lin Wan knew very well that the Chishui River crossed Yuzhou City, so the impact of the rapid rise in the river was naturally even better than that of Nanzhu.
Of course, the Chishui River flows through the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of the Yuzhou Prefecture are not only Yuzhou City and Nanzhu County. In addition to Yuzhou City and Nanzhu County, there are also Tong'an County and Shangyu County, which are adjacent to Nanzhu and are located in the upper reaches of Nanzhu. The lower reaches of Yuzhou City and Yuzhou City form several counties in a small plain area.
That small plain is the main grain-producing land in Yuzhou. More than 80% of the fertile land in Yuzhou is in this small plain. It is naturally impossible to take things like breaking the dike and releasing floods in the plains.
If you break the dike and release the flood, you can only choose one of the three mountainous counties.
Nanzhu is the poorest county among the three counties. It is not only poor but also small and mountainous, with almost few fertile land. Therefore, extremely destructive things like breaking the dike and releasing floods naturally fell on Nanzhu's head.
Ye Shen once fought for Nan Zhu in his reply letter, and what he got were two consecutive documents with more severe words from the prefect's office, and of course, Ji Kang's private letters.
In fact, when he received the first document from the prefect's office, Ye Shen knew in his heart that breaking the dike in Nanzhu should be an unchangeable thing.
Anyone who has read the county annals of Nanzhu will know that there have been several instances of Nanzhu breaking the dike and leaking floods in the decades.
However, as the magistrate of Nanzhu County, Ye Shen, who had to stand on the standpoint of the people of Nanzhu, fought for Nanzhu, but the result was not important, but the process was the process.
After Siqin combed Lin Wan's hair, Lin Wan sighed again: "Is there news from Gaopo Village?"
Siqin was about to shake her head when she saw Sizhu lifting the curtain and piercing in: "Girl, I just sent the news from Donglin Town. The medicine and grain have been sent to Gaopo Village. The situation there has stabilized. The nineteenth and twenty have returned from Gaopo Village and have gone up the river embankment. The eighteenth and second brother continue to stay in Donglin Town."
This was great good news, which made Lin Wan feel that Nanzhu County, which was originally full of danger, was finally at peace.
Lin Wan pondered for a moment, then asked Siqin and Sizhu to lean over and whisper a few words to the two. The two maids nodded first and then shook their embarrassment a little, but in the end they could not resist Lin Wan. As Lin Wan asked, he helped Lin Wan to sit down in the flower hall where the family members were. The two put on the raincoats they had just made yesterday and plunged into the heavy rain and rushed towards the newly built shelter area.
Seeing Lin Wan coming, the women quickly asked someone to take the children to the house next to them.
Lin Wan shook her head and kept the children and let them sit in front of her.
After the children sat down obediently, Lin Wan first asked the older children to get up and recite a book.
Perhaps it was because there was no teacher in charge recently, and the elders were all busy with flawless considerations. They were obviously memorizing books that were fluently before, but today they were a little stuttering, but nothing went wrong, so they still received Lin Wan's praise.
Of course, while praising her, Lin Wan also made a request to the children, hoping that the children would not neglect their homework just because the school was temporarily suspended.
Seeing the children nodding obediently, then looked at themselves one by one. Lin Wan naturally understood that the children wanted to hear their stories.
I kept the children for the time being. In addition to hoping that the children would not leave their newly enlightened homework, I also planned to give them a small benefit. Since the children want to listen to stories, let me tell them a small story first.
Only by setting the children down can adults do things better.
