After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 18

"Why didn't you mention me!"

Yao Shouning heard her say a few words, but didn't mention herself at all, and couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.

"You're just at home every day, what's there to mention?" Liu Shi didn't take her words to heart, thinking she was just playing a childish temper.

"I'm at home, but it's not easy to see you." Yao Shouning replied, which made Liu Shi stunned for a while, feeling a little guilty in his heart.

She wiped her hands for a while, then turned to look at her daughter's face.

Yao Shouning looked at her inexplicably, as if he didn't realize how much of a psychological impact he had on his mother when he said casually.

Yao Wanning has been seriously ill recently. Indeed, she focused most of her attention on her eldest daughter and neglected this child.

"What's wrong?" Yao Shouning asked subconsciously as she looked at her inexplicably.

She has a transparent mind, and what she just said was just unintentional, not complaining about the gains and losses.

But the more this happened, the more Liu Shi felt sorry for her.

"Who said that?" She said loudly, as if to dispel her guilty conscience:
"I've been a little busy recently, but I also keep you in my heart."

She remembered something and straightened her back:
"Didn't I tell you last time? The liar surnamed Sun doesn't like Wanning's illness, so I have to settle the account with him. Now that the rain has stopped, it can be seen that God is urging me to go out!"

As soon as Liu Shi's voice fell, he stood up:

"Tomorrow I will go to Beicheng to find him and expose this liar!" Having said that, she slapped the handkerchief in her hand on the table:
"I'll take you with me then!"

Yao Shouning's eyes lit up, and before he could speak, footsteps came from outside:
"Where to go?"

While speaking, Yao Hui's figure appeared at the door, looking a little tired.

"father!"

Yao Shouning turned his head and called, Yao Hui smiled when he saw his daughter, and answered her.

The servant stepped forward to remove the half-wet cloak for him, and Mrs. Liu hurriedly greeted Mammy Cao to fetch water again and asked him to wash his face and hands.

He waved his hand and changed the pair of muddy black boots on his feet. After striding in, he washed his hands in the hot water in the room and let out a soothing sigh.

"I said that I want to find that quack doctor surnamed Sun tomorrow."

When Liu Shi said this, she glanced at her husband and couldn't help but feel a little distressed:

"How do you make it like this?"

While speaking, she pulled out the stool and Yao Hui sat on it.

The clothes on his body should have been soaking wet before, but he was half-dried by his body temperature, and his hands were red from the cold. There were even faint cracks in many places.

Judging from the dirt on the pair of black boots he just took off, Yao Shouning guessed that he should have been running outside all day, and maybe the place he went to was not very clean.

Recently, he has been very busy with his official business. He leaves early and returns late every day. Yao Shouning has not seen him for several days. It is rare that he came home earlier today.

"Something happened in Hulu Lane on North Street."

After saying this, he saw Yao Shouning's eyes showing curiosity, and even Liu Shi's eyes showed hidden worry, he couldn't help but sighed and explained:

"It has been raining continuously recently, and there are problems in many places."

Yao Hui frowned:
"In the records of the Daqing calendar, such rain has never been encountered in a hundred years."

He was hesitant to say anything, some words he didn't want to say in front of his daughter.

In the 700th year since the founding of Daqing, the huge city of God is prosperous on the outside, but the inside has long been in disrepair.

Today, the title of the Sage's Dingguo is God's Revelation. Since more than ten years ago, he has been addicted to the question of cultivating immortals, refining elixir, and seeking longevity.

This time, the heavy rain for half a month has pierced the problem that was forcibly covered up and down!

The ancient capital could not withstand the corrosion of the rain, and news of the collapse of the city walls and houses came from all over the place.

When the city was built, I am afraid that no one expected that the city of Shendu would suffer such a flood after many years. There are flooded places everywhere.

The most troublesome thing is not just these, but with the disaster and flood, the food in many places began to be out of stock.

Diseases began to breed in the flooded places, and in times of turmoil, restless nights appeared at the same time.

Yao Hui, as the commander of the Beicheng Army and Horse Division, logically looks good on weekdays, as long as he needs to maintain the security of the Beicheng, it is enough to send his men to patrol.

But in such an emergency, it's not just doing these things.

Although Emperor Shenqi cultivated the way of longevity and wanted to become an immortal and become a Buddha, his heart was not soft at all, and his temper was moody.

As soon as the disaster caused by the flood occurs, it will be investigated layer by layer, and I am afraid that many officials will lose their heads.

Under such circumstances, from top to bottom, all DPRK and Chinese officials push their responsibilities downward.

Yao Hui, the sixth-rank commander, inevitably received many tasks that did not belong to him.

Whether it was the collapse of the building that caused casualties, or the blockage of the ditch and the flooding of the house, some of them were assigned to him.

Coupled with the fact that Xiao Xiao took advantage of the chaos to commit crimes, the yamen of the Bingma Division were overwhelmed.

Therefore, Yao Hui went out early and returned late in the past two days, so busy that he didn't even have time to catch his breath.

He glanced at Yao Shouning, and the girl looked at him curiously.

This daughter has been raised with a carefree character since she was a child, and has not been tainted by the filth of this world.

Yao Hui suppressed his exhaustion and said with a smile:

"After the rain, some people were unwell. There was a long queue in front of a hospital on Hulu Lane. There were two men making trouble there in the afternoon, so I went over."

Liu Shi remembered the pair of boots he had taken off earlier, and had some idea in his mind.

It must be no trivial matter to be able to alert him to go in person.

She asked worriedly:
"It's too noisy?"

"It was a terrible fight, and it caused people to die." Yao Hui was reluctant to talk about this issue in front of her daughter, and seeing Liu Shi's brows furrowed, she couldn't help but reach out and squeeze her palm:
"Come and change with me."

He acts carefree, and his love for his wife has always been unavoidable.

But in front of her daughter, Liu's cheeks were still red, and she couldn't help but glanced at him angrily, but seeing that her husband's clothes were half wet, he still let him drag him and walked to another room.

"What about changing clothes—" She pursed her lower lip slightly, pulled up the stool and sat down:
"It's clear that I have something to tell my mother, but I just don't want me to hear it."

Granny Cao pretended to be old and deaf, as if she didn't hear her muttering, and called a girl to come in to clean up the aftermath.

In another house, while Liu fetched clean clothes for her husband, she asked:
"Is it serious?"

Yao Hui no longer concealed his expression, took off his wet clothes, and nodded:
"There are rumors in the city."
