Chapter 14 Relief in Panxi Village

"Ye, where are we going now?" I raised my head and asked Ling Ye with round eyes.

"I heard that several villages in Maocheng in the north of Li Kingdom are suffering from drought. I want to go over and see if I can help you." Ling Ye smiled and turned back to pat my head and said, his face full of pain, That smile makes me feel like spring breeze in the hot summer.

I nodded with the same smile, and said to Ling Ye: "Then let's go now, where is Wei Feng?"

"He's already waiting for us in the carriage outside the inn. Let's pack up and go down to meet him."

"Oh, wait a minute, my backpack and violin are still on the bed, I have to go to the room to get them out."

After finishing speaking, he ran directly to his room to get his backpack and piano case.Ling Ye stood waiting for me at the door of the inn, watching me rush over to help me pick it up with my bag and piano case on my back, Wei Feng sat on the car with no expression on his face and waited for us in black.I'm used to this look on his face.I got into the carriage directly, took the baggage and piano case from Ling Ye's hand from inside the carriage, and put them away.Ling Ye also got into the car immediately.There was the sound of lashing whips and neighing of horses outside, and the carriage was already slowly moving forward.

Ling Ye was sitting opposite me. The weather in June was very hot. I felt a little sweaty when I was sitting in the carriage, and my forehead was also slightly sweaty, but Ling Ye on the opposite side was refreshed and sweat-free. A blue robe makes people feel infinitely cool.

Ling Ye looked at my sweaty forehead, smiled lightly and shook his head, took out a snow-white handkerchief from his bosom, and gently wiped it for me.

I asked curiously: "Ye, how come you didn't sweat a drop in such hot weather? You still feel very refreshed, God is really unfair."

"Hehe, it's not that I'm not afraid of heat, it's because I practiced ice internal energy when I was young, so no matter how hot the weather is, as long as I exercise the internal energy for a week, my whole body will be comfortable, refreshed and sweat-free." Ling Ye looked at me helplessly. explained.

"Oh, mygod! Is this okay?" I just fainted in disbelief.

Ling Ye moved to sit next to me, hugged me in his arms, held my palm with one hand, and instantly felt a cool and refreshing breath spread all over his body, as if he was in an air-conditioned room, very comfortable.I greedily leaned into his arms, smelling the faint fragrance of the valley on his body.

Ling Ye looked at the piano case I put aside and asked curiously: "Wei, I see you carry this case with you all the way, what is so precious inside?"

"Ah?" I raised my head in a daze, followed his gaze, stretched out my hand to take the piano case with a smile, and asked mysteriously, "Guess?"

Ling Ye looked at the strangely shaped box thoughtfully, frowned and said, "It looks a bit like a pipa but not like a pipa, what kind of musical instrument is it?"

"Yes, it's a violin." I looked at him and nodded with a smile.While adjusting the combination lock on the piano case, this is the 16th birthday gift that my father ordered from Italy the year before last. Now the only thing that stays with me is this piano and the bracelet that my brother gave me.

He took out the violin, handed it to Ling Ye, and said with a smile, "This is my favorite instrument since childhood, the violin."

Ling Ye looked at the violin in front of him in disbelief, stroked the strings, and asked in surprise, "Is this called a violin? Uh, hehe, I thought I knew a little about all kinds of musical instruments, but I never knew that there are Such an instrument."

"You are not ignorant, hehe, in fact, the world is so big, and there are so many things we don't know. I never told you where I come from, right? I'm not from Xuan, nor from Li, let alone I am from Xiyue, my hometown is Hong Kong, and I am Chinese. The violin is a musical instrument there.”

"China? I have never heard of such a country."

"Well, I'm Chinese, and my country is far away from here, and I can't find my way back even if it's so far away." I looked at him with a little melancholy.

"Are you leaving here?" Ling Ye asked nervously.

"I think maybe one day, I don't know."

"Wei..." Ling Ye held my hand in a panic, his eyes full of reluctance.

"Don't think too much, um, how about I play a song for you?" I gently rubbed his beautiful face coquettishly.

"Well, just let me see it!" Ling Ye's voice was expectant.

I was a little excited, and I haven't played with it for a long time. I tuned the strings, picked up the bow in the box, and wanted to stand up and set the position, but I didn't pay attention to the height of the carriage. With a bang, hum, his head hit the roof of the carriage heavily.

"Ouch." I rubbed my head in pain.

Amused and distressed, Ling Ye took out the ointment he carried with him and helped me apply it, and said with some reproach: "I really don't know what kind of environment you grew up in, sometimes you are confused, sometimes you are wise and intelligent, I really don't know what to do with you."

I smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm fine, don't worry, I'll show you another day, I suddenly want to sing, do you want to hear it?"

Ling Ye smiled and nodded.

I thought about it and sang:

without any precautions

no worries

You appear in my world like this

Surprise me

But you are like this without me knowing it

disappear quietly

from my world

There's no audio, all that's left are memories

You exist

deep in my mind

In my dreams, in my heart, in my singing

You exist

deep in my mind

In my dream, in my heart, in my song

remember we used to

Walking through the busy alley side by side

Although you and I are strangers and passers-by

But we still feel each other

A look

a heartbeat

an unexpected joy

Seems

a dream doomed

You exist

deep in my mind

In my dream, in my heart, in my song

You exist

deep in my mind

In my dream, in my heart, in my song

The world is so big why we met

Is it fate

Is it God's will

You exist

deep in my mind

In my dreams, in my heart, in my singing. . . . .

The carriage continued to move forward. In the carriage, Ling Ye was listening to my song, his face was filled with shock and disbelief again. He must have been stunned by the tune and the lyrics. I sang repeatedly, with Ye Thoughts fly across thousands of mountains and rivers together.

We arrived at Panxi Village, a village in Maocheng at dusk on the second day. What we saw was a depression. The flowers and plants on the side of the road were all dry and withered. Looking at a large piece of farmland, there was only a piece of withered yellow, which had not yet grown. The mature wheat seedlings drooped their heads and hung aside.The soil in the field has also begun to dry out.

We walked all the way, and all we saw was this scene. If it continues, it will have a great impact on the livelihood of the people here, and there will be a large number of disaster victims here.Ling Ye frowned slightly, his eyes full of bitterness.

We saw a big man in front of us walking up from the foot of the mountain carrying a bucket. The mountain road was a bit steep. Even a big man like him seemed to be having a hard time walking. The cool water overflowed a lot along the way. Wei Feng stepped forward quickly. gave him a hand.

Ye and I also walked up to him and asked him about the situation.Seeing Wei Feng helping him, the big man looked at us in surprise and said, "Who are the three?"

"Uncle, we want to ask about the current situation in the village. Is it convenient?" Ling Ye said to the big man with a smile.

"Hey, you've all seen that the village is suffering from a drought. It hasn't rained for several months. The crops in the fields have died of drought. Now it's even a problem to drink water. I really don't know how this day is going. Ah." The big man's face was full of bitterness, and his eyes were slightly moist.

"Then have you tried to dig a few more wells?" I looked at him and asked softly.

"Why not? But the land is deserted. We dug several places, but we dug very deep, and we didn't see a drop of water." The big man sighed helplessly.

"Then your water?" I looked at the two half buckets of water he had left, and I thought they were picked from afar, and half of them were spilled.

"The reason why our place is called Panxi Village is because there is a small stream at the foot of the mountain in our village. The stream is quite deep, but there is a certain distance from the foot of the mountain to our village, but there is no other way now. The small stream It is the only source of water in our village, and the only way to drink water is to fetch water from the foot of the mountain, there is no other way.” The uncle murmured.

"Well, this is indeed a problem. It would be great if there is a way to bring the water up." Ling Ye said thoughtfully, looking at the mountain road where the big man just came up.

"Yes, if there is some way to bring the water up, the crops in the fields will also be saved. Otherwise, our village's livelihood will be a problem next year, and we still have last year's surplus grain, but this is nothing but sitting on the mountain."

"Bring it up? How can it be like modern tap water?" I muttered in a low voice.

"Wei, is there anything you can do?" Ling Ye looked at me with a puzzled expression.

"Uh, I don't know if it will work. My idea is that building a waterwheel may solve this problem. I need to think about the specific design. Uncle, can you take me to the stream?"

"Of course, girl, if you can help Panxi Village solve this problem, the villagers of our whole village will be infinitely grateful!" The big man was a little excited.

I waved my hand embarrassingly, and said with a smile: "Don't thank me in advance, I haven't done it yet. It's not too late to thank me when I succeed, haha."

Ling Ye patted my head amusedly.The big man put the bucket on the side of the road and led us down the mountain.On the way, I was thinking about the description of water cart irrigation in "Wei Lue" that I read in modern times: "Ma Jun lives in the city of Kyoto. He has land for gardens, but if there is no water to irrigate, he turns over carts and makes children turn around. Irrigate water" secretly thinking about the production method of the waterwheel mentioned in Zhou's book.

When I came to the foot of the mountain, what I saw was a stream that was sparkling and clear to the bottom. It was so beautiful. In fact, God still cared for them very much. They kept a clear spring for them in the drought. This is their vitality. .

"This creek is running water, very sweet." The big man said to us with a smile.

"Well, uncle, I want to take a look here. You can go to work first. I will tell you when I think about how to make the waterwheel. It may take the villagers to work together to complete it."

"Okay, girl, if you need any materials, just tell us."

"Okay!" I opened the backpack I was carrying, took out the ballpoint pen and paper, sat cross-legged by the creek, seriously thought about the content in my mind, and slowly drew on the paper, Ling Ye and Wei Feng stood aside , looking at me waving the pen in my hand strangely.After a while, I drew the figure of the waterwheel imagined in my mind first.

After the drawing was finished, I handed it to Ling Ye, pointed to the sketch with a smile and said, "This picture is about an overturned car. The body of the overturned car is made of a long slot made of wooden boards. The slot is two feet long, and the width does not have a certain length. Some are four inches, some are seven inches, and the height is about one foot. There is a walkway board in the long trough, and the width of this walkway board is about the same as the width of the long trough, but the length is longer than the two ends of the long trough. It is one foot shorter than the long groove, and the place shorter than the long groove is used to place the large and small wheel axles. In addition, the upper and lower sides of the walkway board are tied with keel boards. The large axle is placed on the bank, and the two sides of the big axle are respectively connected. There are four small wooden sticks in the shape of handles. As long as people rely on the frame and step on the small sticks, they will step on the crutches, and when they step on the crutches, they will drive the keel board. As a connection, it is so interlocking that the water is brought to the shore. With this method, it can irrigate the fields on the high bank of more than three feet, and solve the problem of no water irrigation in the highlands."

"How did you come up with such a production method? I think it is highly feasible and worth a try." Ling Ye looked at the picture I drew in amazement.

I smiled embarrassedly, I didn't think of this, this is the crystallization of the wisdom of Chinese ancestors. "I can only draw pictures. For the specific operation, I can only rely on you and Wei Feng to solve it. I will indicate the size later. You and Wei Feng have a look and discuss it with the village chief. There should be carpenters in the village. Hehe, with your ingenuity, I believe this will not trouble you." I said a little shamelessly.

"Well, just leave the production to me and Feng. I'm confident that this rollover will be successful." Ling Ye scratched my nose and smiled happily.

This guy is really kind-hearted, and he is so kind to people who are not in his own country.We packed up and went back to the village together. The big man, Uncle Liu, took us to meet the village head. The village head was also very excited about our proposal. He called a meeting of the village's strong men that night. Everyone unanimously expressed their support for this idea. The village chief set up a small hut for us and brought us dinner. After dinner, I went back to my room to rest. I was really tired from the bumpy carriage for two days. My own is about to fall apart.As soon as his head touches the pillow, Duke Zhou will go. Ling Ye’s room is still lit. He must be staying up all night thinking about the production of the overturned car.

When I woke up the next day, Ling Ye, Wei Feng, and the craftsmen in the village started cutting logs early in the morning to prepare materials for making overturned carts.From a distance, I could only see Ye seriously explaining something to the craftsman with the blueprint in his hand. He probably rearranged it overnight last night.

I wanted to go over there to have a look, but suddenly I heard someone shouting: "Go and ask Mrs. Wen, A Qing's family is probably about to give birth."

I paced along the sound, only to see a woman's cry of pain from time to time in a hut surrounded by a fence. I ran in and saw a woman in her twenties lying on the kang with a huge belly. Her face was pale, and her hair was soaked with sweat.Her lips were bitten through the pain, a little bright red.There was a piece of blood under her body, oh my god, she was going to have a baby, I was at a loss for a moment, and I also shouted: "Someone is coming soon, someone here is going to have a baby."

I walked towards the woman nervously, only to see her pale face writhing together in pain, and seeing me approaching her, she stretched out her hand to grab me, looked at me beggingly, and said in a very weak voice: "Please, Save me and the baby in my belly."

At this time, in a panic, I realized that I could be regarded as a doctor, but I had never had the experience of helping others deliver babies.what to do?The pregnant woman grabbed my hand like a drowning man grabbing a piece of driftwood.

Let's go all out, let's save people first.I patted her hand, nodded, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I will help you, and then you will do as I say, okay?"

The pregnant woman nodded, and I picked up a pillow and placed it on her back, helped her pull down her pants, endured the fear in my heart, and stretched out my hand to her body, about five fingers apart, according to what I saw on TV Obstetrics and gynecology knowledge, after opening the five fingers, you can almost enter the labor process.I separated her legs, and said softly to her: "Don't use force when it doesn't hurt, keep your strength, and if the pain is severe, use force, you know?"

She looked at me and nodded in pain, and I stroked her chest to help her breathe. I saw her brows were tightly knit together, and sweat flowed out again. It could be seen that she was in pain.

"Strength, downward force." I encouraged her from the side.

I saw a large area of ​​blood gushing out from under her, and I was a little scared myself. "I, ah, I have no strength..."

"Come on, you can see the child's head soon, imagine how cute your child is, how much he wants to come to this world to meet his parents, you are his great mother, you will definitely bring Did he come to this world? Come on, your child is waiting to see you, work hard!"

"Child, child, ah... ah..." Along with screams, a loud cry of a baby was finally heard.

"Haha, it's a boy, congratulations, you've become a mother!" I happily picked up the child, grabbed the quilt beside him and wrapped his small body.

At this time, a woman and a midwife with a medicine box ran in from outside the door. Seeing the child in my arms, they asked in disbelief, "You helped Mrs. Ah Qing deliver the baby?"

"Yes, the child was just born, it's a boy." I smiled and put the child next to the woman who was still weak after giving birth.

The woman hurriedly asked Mrs. Wen to look at the pregnant woman. Mrs. Wen smiled and said: "No need, this girl is doing a good job. The eldest sister just needs to help the mother clean up. Congratulations, I will take my leave." After finishing speaking, the mother-in-law picked up the medicine box and went out.

"Thank you, girl, you are the bearer of the child, why don't you help me choose a name for the child?" Mrs. Ah Qing looked at me gratefully and smiled slightly.

"Hehe, you're welcome. Actually, I was quite scared just now. This is the first time I've helped someone deliver a baby. But do you really want me to name this baby?"

"Well, it's the child's good fortune to have the girl named you."

"Hee hee, if that's the case, let's call him Buyun. I hope this kid will be able to achieve great success in the future!"

"Buyun, Liu Buyun, it's really nice. Thank you, girl."

The woman who had been standing did not know when she ran out, and after a while, she saw a man running in from outside the house covered in sweat, rushed to the bed and held the woman's hand and said excitedly, "Are you okay?" Is it? Sorry, I was not able to accompany you by your side just now." The man's eyes were full of guilt, he turned to look at the little man sleeping beside him and asked happily, "Is this our child?"

"Well, I'm fine. This girl helped me deliver the baby. She is Buyun's picker."

"Buyun, nice name, thank you, girl!" The man turned around and stood up and bowed to me.

I quickly helped him up, and said with a smile, "You're welcome, just call me Xiaowei!"
