Huang Xiu Niang opened the door and saw Li Yuan, and knew her purpose.
"Mother Yuan, your well is dry too. I see you are all sweating, why don't you come in first and drink some water to slow down."
When Li Yuan heard what she said, she knew that the people were either using the ones they had hoarded earlier or trying their best to get from Liuyun River, so she politely refused.
"Sister-in-law, no need. Water is precious now. You can keep it for yourself. Can Niang and I still have water in our bamboo tubes."
As she spoke, she pointed to the large bamboo tube hanging on the side of the carriage shaft.
Huang Xiu Niang glanced at the bamboo tube, nodded and asked, "Yuan Niang, are you ready to take the tribe away?"
"Well, but not now, it will take a few days. Sister-in-law, where is your family?"
Huang Xiu Niang's eyes showed confusion.
"I don't know either! I want to leave, but my mother-in-law and the others don't want to. Save some of the water stored at home, it can last for a few months. Besides, there is still water in Liuyun River. Although it is a bit far away, it is still there. Yes. Besides, I also stocked up on rice and noodles before, so I don’t have to worry about eating and drinking."
"Since they are unwilling to leave, then you listen to me and pack up Xinrui at any time. If anything goes wrong, Mr. Xu will take everyone away, and then you can follow."
Huang Xiu Niang sighed: "This is the only way!"
During this time in their Banyan Tree Alley, several families left one after another. She actually wanted to go with them, but her family members did not cooperate at all.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go back first."
"Well, go ahead!"
As soon as Li Yuan got home, Wang Can took advantage of her to park the car and immediately closed the door.
"Sister, I'm so hot!"
Li Yuan took out the electric fan and handed it to her while she was getting hay from the space to feed the horse.
"Blow first, then slowly I will give you water."
"good!"
Wang Can feels that this electric fan is her life-saver now.
The weather was so hot that she wished she could stay immersed in the water like a fish.
"Sister, I also have your electric fan, and I will leave with the tribe soon. If there is no electric fan and I don't leave Lijia'ao, I will find someone to help dig a big cellar and live down there. In this way, It’s not as hot as above.”
"Don't tell me, some people may actually do this. We want to leave because we know there will be flooding and we know what will happen next. But many people don't know. If they don't leave here, the weather is too hot, so they can only think of ways to scream. Make yourself feel better."
"Well! We are enjoying ourselves here. I don't know how Junzi brother, brother-in-law, and my uncle are doing. I don't know if it has rained in Fucheng or if the weather has been so hot. Sister, you said Junzi brother and his colleagues were tested in the hospital. Will everything be okay? I'm afraid they will suffer from heatstroke by then."
"I don't know the situation over there either. But Brother Xie has experience, so it shouldn't be a problem."
"I hope so! I don't expect him to be admitted as a scholar now. Being a boy student is actually a surprise to me. There are so many people who have been taking exams all their lives and can't even pass the boy student exam. I think my uncle Maocai will be very happy when Brother Junzi passes the Tongsheng Examination."
"Don't mention your uncle, just grandma. See how they laughed that day? Come on, you have a bite of iced watermelon first, and I'll go to space for a while."
Li Yuan said, took out half a watermelon and handed it to her, then stepped into the space.
She was also very hot and had to wash herself off quickly.
But forget about taking a bath in the bathroom, she was going to take a dip in the stream.
When Wang Can finished eating half of the watermelon, Li Yuan came out with wet hair.
What followed her out was the large wooden barrel that she controlled with her mind.
This big wooden barrel belongs to Wang Can, and it is filled with cold water from the stream.
"Canniang, go wash up!"
"good!"
Wang Can has spiritual spring water and is in good health. He doesn't say that he can't take a bath after eating.
After she collected the watermelon seeds and handed them to Li Yuan, she began to untie her bun.
The big wooden barrel was placed in the main room. When Li Yuan moved the bamboo bed out, she also placed her change of clothes, shampoo and shower gel on it.
"Can Niang, I'm going to the space to see if there's anything suitable to eat. You wash up first and I'll come out later."
Wang Can was already immersed in the barrel, feeling extremely comfortable.
"Sister, I'm so lucky that I met you. Otherwise, how could I live so comfortably in this weather? This water is ice cold, and it's so comfortable."
Li Yuan didn't reply to her words. When she closed her eyes and sighed, she had already arrived at the space kitchen.
When she came out again, she had two bowls of hot and sour noodles in her hands.
Wang Can was still soaking in the barrel and couldn't bear to get out.
Because of the muggy weather, the ice-cold water in the barrel had now become a little warmer.
Wang Can sniffed the sour and spicy smell. She had eaten watermelon and felt that she was full, so she suddenly had appetite again.
Fucheng
It was already early in the morning on the ninth day of June when Xie Yanzhi received what Li Yuan sent.
Cao Zhi led his people and arrived here only after the journey was considered smooth.
After he saw clearly the contents and what was sent, he asked Cao Zhi: "Brother Cao, how is the situation in the county now?"
"It's very bad. The well water has dried up and the river water is very shallow. If it hadn't been for the messy dams in Liufeng County, the river would have dried up now. No matter whether it is day or night, no one is walking around. It's nowhere like Fucheng. I have to queue even to enter the city.”
"What's the situation over there with Yuan Niang?"
"My sister-in-law is doing very well! Tell me, if you ask about her, just say that everything is fine with her and the clan, so that you don't have to worry and just prepare for the provincial examination with peace of mind."
"Well! These things are troublesome to Brother Cao!"
"We are brothers. I have to come to Fucheng anyway. It's just a matter of convenience. There is no need to be so polite."
Xie Yanzhi actually didn't need to think about it, he already knew how chaotic it was outside.
The people Cao Zhi brought with him were all good at boxing and kicking.
Even so, it would still take him five days to get from the county seat to the capital, let alone others?
However, he was not very worried about the Li clan members, mainly the number of people mentioned in the letter.
There were more than 800 people leaving this time, and most of them were strong laborers. In addition, the food was "transported" to Luyang Mansion by her first, so he knew what it meant.
But since he decided to leave tomorrow, he had to make arrangements here.
Lest people get to Luyang Mansion and something goes wrong there.
Chen Yang's letter just arrived in his hands yesterday, saying that he has settled down there, and he is just waiting for the money here to be bought by Shan Shan over there, and he will be able to successfully receive the people from Lijia'ao.
The so-called big businessman in the capital was Xie Yanzhi.
It's just that he is a scholar after all, and he is about to take the provincial examination. If he wants to be an official in the future, he cannot participate in this.
Therefore, when he originally talked with Chen Yang, he purchased it in the name of Li Yuan's dowry.
Right now, he has just settled a generous share of the profit from Guojia Book Store, so it would be best to use it to buy the mountain!
But after all, this was a large sum of money. If he couldn't go there himself, he would have to find someone he could trust.
