Rebirth of the beauty of the peasant girl

Chapter 437 Show Loyalty To Her

Seeing Qing Luo and the others coming, Zhang Li hurriedly put down the plowshare, and came to salute her: "My lord, you got up so early?"

Qing Luo frowned.

This is what it says...

Why does it seem like everyone knows she has a snooze problem?

"Cough!" Zhang Lizheng immediately realized that he was not asking about the place, so he quickly changed the subject, "Did your lord come to see the progress of the reclamation?"

"It rained heavily the past two days. Let me see if it has been affected in any way." Qingluo walked to the ridge of the field and saw the fresh soil that had been dug up, still carrying the damp smell after the rain.

Zhang Li was scratching his head: "Is it raining a lot? It's not too heavy. We know you are in a hurry and haven't stopped yet."

Qingluo was surprised: "Why isn't it raining heavily here?"

Zhang Lizheng looked very happy: "It rained a little bit, which just soaked the soil, and it's very soft when digging, and it saves a lot of effort and speed!"

Qing Luo and Huang Butou looked at each other.

This difference is too great.

No wonder I didn't see them go home yesterday to have a look. It turned out that they didn't know the situation in Qili Village at all.

Qingluo hurriedly said: "Don't be so busy for the time being, Qili Village is completely submerged, you go home and have a look."

"Flooded?!" Zhang Lizheng was taken aback.

His parents took the villagers here to escape because of the flood, which wiped out their houses and fields, so they are particularly sensitive to the word flooded.

When he heard this, he became a little anxious, and hurriedly asked: "My lord, I don't know what happened to our villagers?"

Although he didn't expect the magistrate to go to the flooded place, he subconsciously wanted to know something.

Even a little bit can give people a lot of peace of mind.

"Don't worry, they are all housed in Rich Man Li's house now, where they have food and a place to rest." Qingluo comforted him, "It's just that the tent has been washed away, but when the water subsides, I will arrange to build a house for you. place to live."

Zhang Lizheng said in surprise: "They live in rich man Li's house? Can he be willing?"

Huang Butou answered: "Our magistrate personally went to Qili Village, rescued your villagers, and brought them to rich man Li's house. Did he say no?"

At this moment, the other men who were working heard that their home was flooded, so they gathered anxiously to inquire about the situation.

They couldn't believe it after hearing what Huang Tantou said.

The magistrate actually went to Qili Village to help save people?Although controlling floods and droughts is a very important task for the county magistrate.

But few officials would really put themselves in danger.

They all went through untold hardships before they were admitted to fame and became officials. They haven't lived enough to enjoy life. Who wants to joke about the danger of their own lives?

Although it is said that officials are for the people, everyone understands that in fact the status of officials will always be higher than that of ordinary people.

Out of habit, in her capacity, even if she didn't go, no one dared to say anything.

Unexpectedly, not only did she go, but she also personally helped rescue people, arranged the life of the victims, and ensured that they would not suffer from hunger or cold.

If Zhang Lizheng was waiting for her, there was still a trace of natural distrust among officials and ordinary people towards her, but it has completely disappeared at this moment.

"grown ups--"

Zhang Li was taking the lead, and twenty or so men all knelt down for her.

Qingluo was taken aback for a moment: "You guys are..."

"My lord, on behalf of the rescued family members, we would like to express our gratitude to you!" Zhang Lizheng raised his head and said sincerely, "If our former county magistrate could do a little bit of what you did, we wouldn't be able to escape. !"

Qingluo sighed: "It's all over, and life will gradually get better. Get up first."

"No, my lord!" He led the crowd and kowtowed three times to Qingluo, as if swearing, "From now on, I, Zhang Bingkui, will obey my lord! As long as my lord asks me to do something, I will be killed." I, Zhang Bingkui, won't even blink an eye in the pan of oil at the foot of the mountain!"

The rest of the men also said in unison: "Yes! Lord Yiliu's horse head is a saddle!"

Qingluo has never seen the army, so she doesn't know what it looks like when they shout slogans.

But in front of her were twenty or so men, kneeling in front of her, expressing their loyalty to her in unison, with firm faces and voices like a bell.

It still gave her a great shock.

She just did the duty that an official should do, but she was able to get such a heartfelt reward.

Although her original intention was to avoid being punished for dereliction of duty.

This made her feel for the first time that being an official is not only for fame and fortune, but also the idea that she can really do something for the common people.

"You guys, get up." She said softly, "From now on, you can live here with peace of mind. As for the issue of household registration, I have asked someone to contact the county government where you are originally from, and I will help you all to transfer to Pingyang. Would you like to?"

In Dazhou, household registration is also very important.

The reason why the victims are disaster victims is because of their household registration, which prevents them from buying land or building houses here.

Of course, if they are rich enough, like Chen Xiangxue, no matter where she goes to buy land, there will be no obstacles.

It is impossible for the disaster victims to be as rich and powerful as Chen Xiangxue, so changing their household registration and buying land is almost something they dare not even think about.

And Lord Zhixian even thought of this for them!
"My lord..." Zhang Lizheng was a seven-foot man, his eyes were red, and he was so choked up that he couldn't speak.

He didn't know how to express his gratitude to her.

Huang Butou hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, you guys, don't be knocked down, get up and work for our adults to be serious."

"Yes!" Qing Luo nodded, "After the rain, the weather will get hotter and hotter. We need to plant the seedlings earlier."

When it came to business, Zhang Li was getting the villagers up, saying, "I'm going to discuss this matter with adults."

"Well, tell me."

"The seedlings have been transported back for two days, but it will take at least several days for the land to be plowed, and it will take more time to make ditches and ridges according to the requirements of the adults—"

Huang Butou was dissatisfied and said, "Are you trying to shirk?"

Zhang Lizheng panicked and said: "No, no, Master Huang misunderstood, I just told the real situation to the adults. If the time to plant the seedlings is delayed, the villain will die!"

Catcher Huang: "Then you guys should do it quickly!"

Zhang Lizheng wondered: "We have been working day and night, but there are not enough people..."

Qing Luo pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "I didn't think carefully, it is true that there are too few people, and you are all pulling plows to plow the land, the speed is too slow and too tiring."

"My lord, we are not afraid of being tired, we are just worried about wasting time..."

"Well, I understand..." She thought for a while, "In this way, you first draw out ten people to plant the seedlings in the dug furrows, and the rest continue to plow the land. I will find a way to get some people to help."

Huang Butou showed his courtesy: "My lord, we can be in a hurry!"

"You?" Qingluo looked at him and the other yamen servants a few times, "Come on, how many years have you guys not done farm work? I was worried that you would ruin my seedlings. Besides, you are working here, in the yamen Leave me alone as the bare commander?"
