"It's just that as long as the surrounding counties don't encounter such extreme rainfall conditions, they don't need to invest too much energy. Local officials will handle it properly."

Li Wenjin looked at the fields and told Xu Zhiyan his plan bit by bit, so detailed that Xu Zhiyan was surprised.

"Do you think so much every day? Isn't that tiring?"

She looked worried.

In my heart, I even thought about sharing some of the pressure with him and making some medicinal food to replenish him.

His eyebrows became softer as he listened, and he raised his hand to smooth the hair from his temples.

"Whether I'm tired or not, it's all my choice."

[It's your own choice. The rest is the prince. He has carried this title since he was a child. He studied several times more than others. He even went to disaster areas to provide relief at a young age. He has not had any rest for so many years. 】

[After some time, Li Guo will cause trouble, and he may have to personally lead troops to fight. Then he will definitely be injured again. 】

[Really, I never take my body seriously. 】

The more she thought about it, the more depressed she felt in her chest.

Not wanting him to notice her bad mood, she turned to face the city wall to relax alone, but unexpectedly discovered a point.

"The drainage ditches in the county can no longer be dug any deeper, so we have to work hard on the routes. For example, the end points of those drainage ditches are set at the city wall, and there is an opening at the root of the city wall to let the water out, and the city wall can be surrounded outside. Create a man-made river.”

"Not only can water be stored effectively, but it will also be more convenient to water the fields outside in the future."

She danced and explained the concept of moat to Li Wenjin, and praised herself in her heart.

【I am great! 】

Li Wenjin also thought her idea was great, so she decided to implement it today if it didn't happen. Xu Zhiyan, as the person who proposed the idea, naturally followed up the whole process in order to better implement the details.

This girl is someone who is busy and doesn't care about the outside world. No, Li Wenjin didn't pay attention to her, so she followed him late into the night.

When she was seriously and responsibly preparing late-night snacks for the workers and was about to deliver them in person, Li Wenjin slipped away and held her collar in place.

"It's still raining. I know you're responsible, but your body still can't stand it. It's cold and sleepy. If you don't go back to sleep, what will you do if you have a fever tomorrow?"

She did often have inexplicable fevers, but since she got the spirit bones, she was much better - it became a fever for which the cause could be discovered.

Xu Zhiyan curled her lips.

"I don't feel cold or sleepy at all now. Besides, the workers are working in the rain. I'm just watching from the side. If I can't bear it and have to hide away, how can the rest of the people work with peace of mind."

"Brother Wen Jin, are you right what I said?"

Good guy, he's starting to act like a spoiled brat, so let's rely on him to do this, right?

Li Wenjin took several deep breaths silently. Just when she had firmed up her mind and was about to persuade him to go back again, she suddenly approached him and blinked at him several times with her big eyes, like a cute kitten, and he suddenly stopped.

"You, it's just because I can't refuse you and you always behave misbehaving with me. If you really get sick tomorrow, Mrs. Hua's impression of me will become worse. What if I don't let you marry me then?"

She shook her head confidently.

"No, it's up to you who I marry. If you make me happy, I will definitely marry you."

[I will definitely not be sick. Mom doesn’t know that I won’t sleep tonight. 】

Okay, I said I was very confident, but in my heart I was trying to hide it from Mrs. Hua.

Li Wenjin was helpless, but had nothing to say. He could only wait until midnight, while she was sleepy, and half coaxed and half deceived her to take her home to rest.

Xu Zhiyan opened her eyes and saw the familiar top of the bed, and knew that she had been brought back. There was no doubt that it was Li Wenjin who did it. She stretched out slowly, then turned over while keeping the stretch, and met Hua Rong's Their eyes met.

Huarong's smile remained unchanged.

"Are you awake? Did you sleep so late last night?"

Xu Zhiyan rolled over and sat up.

"Yeah, it doesn't count."

"Doesn't it count mean you didn't remember the time, or did you just fall asleep because you were so busy and didn't know the time?"

The voice was gentle and gentle, but it gave Xu Zhiyan goosebumps all over her body. Her smile became a lot stiffer, and she couldn't reply.

[It’s over. When did I come back last night? When did my mother sit here? How should I reply to this? I feel like I’m dead no matter what I reply to. 】

Her mind was like a vegetable market, with all kinds of words going around. Hua Rong listened to all these words in his heart. Looking at her obedient face, he couldn't help but relieve his pressure and went up to touch her while she was sleeping warmly. little face.

"Okay, why are you so nervous? Can my mother still eat you?"

She smiled.

"I'm not nervous, I'm just sleepy."

"Okay, you are sleepy and don't know what to say. Mom, let me tell you what I heard today. Mom heard that last night, there was a deep hole outside the city wall of Yutian County. It was also said that the advocate was there. The supervisor is here until midnight."

[Okay, exposed. 】

Xu Zhiyan honestly told everything she had done, "It hasn't stopped raining today, and there is still a lot of noise. If it continues like this the day after tomorrow, there will be water on the streets, so today and tomorrow, we must go outside the city." Get all the gutters out.”

Hua Rong sighed and raised his hand to cover the back of her hand.

"Mom, I know that you have always had great ideas, and this time you did things from the perspective of the common people, but Nannan, if you do some things more, you will make more mistakes, especially if you are a woman."

She knew that her daughter didn't like to hear this, and she didn't like to hear it either, but this was the current trend.

She wants her daughter to live a happy life, but she is afraid that her daughter will be targeted by someone with malicious intentions.

Xu Zhiyan was silent for a moment.

"I know I will be in a lot of trouble if I come forward, but I can't just sit back and do nothing, especially in a situation like this. I'm afraid that because of my cowardice, many people will be in danger."

Hua Rong's eyes were a little more sad.

"You, there are always a lot of truths to block my words, but as a mother, you still want your children to live happily, so I won't say any more. I will just tell you, if you need help with anything, just ask."

Xu Zhiyan threw herself into her arms and rubbed the side of her neck with nostalgia.

"Mom, you are so kind!"

[I really had great luck in my last life by burning incense. Only in this life can I meet such a mother and such a family. I must work hard to protect them. 】

[As long as I do enough good things now, when they are really framed by someone with good intentions, the people will not think that they are bad people. 】

[What I can do is very limited, but I hope my family is well. 】
