Chapter 819 Wisdom
Shen Kuo thought that his little wife was smart, since she said that she came up with this idea, then it should be.

I don't know if Shen Kuo used the method he thought of, but Gu Jiujiu looked at Shen Kuo with a smile and said, "Sir, you can control the water with the method I mentioned?"

"Xiao Jiu, I also thought of the method you mentioned. Before you wrote to me, I suggested it to the magistrate of Ji County, but the magistrate of Ji County is stubborn. Flood sufferers always use the method of blocking the flow of water, so for a while, he was not willing to divert the flow of water that I proposed."

"What happened later?" Gu Jiujiu looked at Shen Kuo and asked.

"Later, the county magistrate saw that the flood in Jixian County was too powerful to be blocked at all. Moreover, many government servants were washed away by the flood when the water was blocked. The county magistrate had no other choice. I just used my method."

When talking about the yamen servants being washed away, Shen Kuo's eyes dimmed slightly.

Gu Jiujiu felt a little uncomfortable hearing this. If the county magistrate of Ji County hadn't been stubborn and had only used Shen Kuo's method of diverting water to control the water from the very beginning, the government officials would not have been washed away by the flood.

After a moment of silence, Shen Kuo looked at Gu Jiujiu again and said, "The county magistrate of Ji County used the method I said, and it soon became effective. Immediately, he was overjoyed and realized that the method I said was feasible. Some people were ordered to dig the river to divert it. After five or six days, the flood in Ji County was gradually brought under control."

Shen Kuo had to go to the Yamen in the afternoon, and after talking with his little wife in his arms, he went to the Yamen.

Not long after Shen Kuo left, Yan Shi came back.

The two little guys also got out of the carriage after Yan Shi.

As soon as Yan Shi saw Gu Jiujiu, she casually asked, "Xiao Jiu, where is your son-in-law?"

"He's gone to the Yamen." Gu Jiujiu said with a smile.

Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Jiujiu, "Xiao Jiu, my son-in-law just came back last night, and I haven't rested yet, why did I go to the Yamen again?"

"My husband said he had to go to the yamen for something, so he went." Gu Jiujiu explained briefly, and said, "Mother, you go to the shop to sell things, is the business good?"

"It's all right." Yan looked at Gu Jiujiu with a happy face and said, "The things that mother brought are sold out very quickly."

Father Zhang and the others are repairing the house behind Gu Jiujiu's house. Every day at noon, Yan Shi and Gu Jiujiu will each serve a cup of hot tea to Father Zhang and the others.

After preparing the tea, Yan Shi and Gu Jiujiu went to the back of the house.

Father Zhang was nailing wood, when he saw Yan Shi and Gu Jiujiu coming, he smiled and said, "Daughter-in-law Yuanbao, Miss Gu, are you here?"

"Daddy Zhang, Xiaojiu and I have prepared some tea for everyone, let everyone take a break, come over and have a cup of hot tea." Yan said with a smile.

"Okay." After Zhang's father finished speaking, he looked at the people who were busy and smiled and said: "You all come over to have tea, the Gu family's sister-in-law has prepared tea for everyone."

"Today, it's not just tea, I also prepared some fruits for everyone." Yan smiled, "All the fruits have been washed with water, let's eat."

The workers saw that Yan's brought not only a lot of fruits, but also all of them were quite big, so they all smiled and took a lot of fruits to eat.

After eating the fruit, everyone continued to work.

After everyone drank tea and ate fruit, Yan Shi and Gu Jiujiu packed up their things and left.
