Ye Qing returned to the hospital, simply changed his clothes, and then continued working.
Four days later.
The heavy rain still continued, but the intensity became much lighter.
With the coincidental plan of Ye Qing and Chen Yuming, the family efforts of several unscrupulous stone merchants, and the help of good merchants and noble families in the city, the precarious river embankment was now safe.
Even though the heavy rain is still falling, the entire city of Huaiyang is filled with an atmosphere of joy.
After that, Su Cheng led most of the people to dig river channels to divert the surging Ying River water.
Many people knew about it and volunteered to help without any reward. There was a lively scene inside and outside Huaiyang City.
This heavy rain, which could take away the lives of tens of thousands of people, completely became a gift from God at this moment.
Ye Qing and He Wen stood at the door of the medical center holding noodle bowls, looking at the people wearing raincoats on the street, carrying hoes and baskets and walking quickly out of the city.
I feel that the already delicious and heart-warming hot noodle soup tastes even better.
He Wen raised his head and drank the noodle soup at the bottom of the bowl. He looked at Ye Qing with flashing eyes and said:
"Brother Ye, I owe you a life too."
Ye Qing was stunned and looked over in confusion.
A young man dressed in dark red cotton-padded clothes, with reverence in his bright eyes.
He Wen picked up the empty bowl, shook it, and said seriously:
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the time to eat your bowl of hot noodle soup that warms my body and heart right now."
These nonsense words made Ye Qing look even more puzzled.
After being stunned for a few breaths, Ye Qing finally reacted.
He did not admit it, but said funnyly:
"Good guy, Brother He, if I had that kind of method, I would have dedicated it long ago."
"Once these achievements are realized, I will have a prosperous official career in Huaiyang City from now on."
"Why did he delay for several days before offering his advice?"
As soon as he said this, He Wen didn't believe it at first, but then he saw Ye Qing's frank expression and doubted himself:
"Could it be that I guessed wrong?"
Ye Qing smiled gently and said, "Of course I guessed wrong."
Hululu!
After finishing the noodle soup, Ye Qing took the bowls and chopsticks from He Wen and walked towards the kitchen, sighing:
"Hey, it would be great if I had such great achievements."
"For my ability in controlling floods and building embankments, I have to be specially recruited by the Ministry of Industry in Kyoto. Once I get in, I won't be promoted to an eighth- or ninth-grade official."
Hearing this, the last trace of suspicion in He Wen's heart completely dissipated.
Ye Qing, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, raised the corners of his mouth slightly and whispered:
"Hide it now until the reward comes."
"He Wen knows that I have deceived him, and his expression will look very good when the time comes."
Thinking of the wonderful thing, Ye Qing couldn't help but bared his teeth.
Three more days passed.
The heavy rain that almost turned Huaiyang, a flat and fertile land, into a vast ocean, finally stopped.
Warm sunlight shines down from the sky.
The humidity that lasted for more than ten days was instantly dissipated, leaving only a little bit of coldness, making every citizen bathed in the sun feel comfortable.
Every common person opened his arms and raised his face to face the sun, his face full of enjoyment.
The children happily stepped on the rain that had not dissipated under their feet.
Pa da~
Water flowers bloom on the ground.
"It's not raining, it's not raining!"
"The sun is out, it's clear!"
Cheers of joy filled every corner of Huaiyang City.
The door of the hospital.
An old man and a young man were squatting behind the threshold. There was also a young man who couldn't squat, leaning on the door frame, each of them eating a handful of melon seeds.
The melon seed peels kept flying and fell in front of the threshold.
Kaka!
Zai Zong, who had eaten a melon seed, spit it out happily and said happily:
"Finally I don't have to work anymore, I can continue to mess around."
puff!
He Wen spit out the melon seed skin and asked curiously: "What does it mean to rot?"
puff!
Mr. Zai, who also spat out melon seed peels, said, "Ask Ye Qing what words he said."
Kaka!
Ye Qing, who had eaten a melon seed, explained patiently: "Showing things off means being lazy, not doing your job properly, and enjoying the wasted good time."
He Wen thoughtfully asked:
"Then we are just messing around now?"
"Yes, congratulations, brother!" Ye Qing raised his head and gave a thumbs up to He Wen.
"The boy is teachable, he is really smart." Mr. Zai raised his head with admiration on his face.
He Wen grinned, narrowed his eyes and said, "It's so good!"
The heavy rain stopped and the streets were noisy again.
A common man who started running for a living was passing by Zai's Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.
They all looked at these three unique people curiously.
Especially these days because of illnesses like diarrhea and wind chill.
Most of the surrounding neighbors have been to Zaishi Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.
Originally, I was only familiar with Mr. Zai and the young man who was famous in Huaiyang, Zuo Zuo.
Now even Ye Qing, who has always been helpful, careful and gentle, is very familiar with him.
Familiar neighbors passed by and when they saw the three of them looking so casual, they all smiled knowingly and said hello.
There was an old man carrying a hoe, smiling and jokingly saying to the three of them:
"Zai Lao, Qing Xiaolang, He Wuzuo, you are so comfortable, I really envy you."
Mr. Zai smiled and said: "Hey, the rain has stopped and no one has come to the hospital at last. How happy are we?"
Ye Qing, who has a good memory, also smiled and replied: "You have to pay attention to your health. Although the rain has stopped, it is still a bit cold. You have a weak body, so don't touch the cold water."
He Wen, who has a superb memory, warned seriously: "You must not touch cold water because of rheumatism in your old left leg. You can work in the fields, but you must be careful."
The old man nodded gratefully and replied:
"Thank you for reminding me, I will remember it."
The melon seeds were eaten quickly.
Mr. Zai clapped his hands and stood up and said:
"Qing Xiaolang, remember to clean the door."
Ye Qing, who curled his lips, looked at the gloating He Wen and said:
"Okay, considering your injury, I'll do the job."
"You won't be able to run away until you are healed."
He congratulated him with a devilish smile, spat out the melon seed peels on the ground again, and said softly:
"Hey, it will take a hundred days to break the muscles and bones. Our ribs are still injured. Zai Lao said that it will only take four months no matter what."
"Brother Ye, we will never refuse after four months."
Ye Qing, who was gritting his teeth and with a fierce expression on his face, raised his fist and waved it, but his eyes were full of smiles and he said:
"Just wait. After four months, I will treat him the same way he did."
Treat him with his own medicine?
He Wen, who already had bright eyes, seemed to be radiating light. He said quickly:
"It is well said to treat the other's body with his own way. It is really well said."
"I have to remember that if Qiu Wei can be used, it will definitely make the grader's eyes shine."
Mention Qiu Wei.
Ye Qing asked: "Brother He, do you have any thoughts about that poem after more than ten days have passed?"
Mention this.
He Wen performed a spell that made his smile disappear instantly. He raised his palm and patted his forehead bitterly, and said in pain:
"I really have no talent for poetry. In the past ten days, I have reviewed all the articles and classics I have read in my mind."
"But this poem, after thinking about it, has no clue at all."
There was a trace of 'Versailles' that made Ye Qing's mouth tremble.
Ye Qing was really envious of his photographic memory.
Afterwards, He Wen cupped his hands towards Ye Qing and said, "Brother Ye, it seems that I can only leave it to you."
Ye Qing, with the corner of his mouth raised, said confidently:
"It's easy to talk about."
"Moreover, this poem is absolutely in line with the reality of the current situation."
