Chapter 934

"Still waiting?" Ba Ye frowned, "The weather will only get colder and colder in the future!"

"But the construction of our river embankment is not much worse. As long as the temperature is not that cold that freezes the soil, we can still catch up." Fu Ling'a said.

"Anyway, the project of the reservoir cannot be completed." Ba Ye said: "This memorial should be made sooner rather than later."

Fu Ling'a just came to help him, this time, Ba Ye didn't intend to listen to his advice.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her, Fu Ling'a was also a little helpless.He wasn't very good at words.At this moment, he said: "Since Lord Baylor has already made a decision, I have nothing to say."

"Your Excellency, let's concentrate on engineering." Ba Ye said lightly.

Master Ba thought about this memorial for a long time.Nobody noticed that he didn't believe in the weather, but the truth was that no one mentioned it.If he attributes all the reasons to the weather in the memorial, he doesn't know what the consequences will be.

Ever since the prince took the initiative to push him out to take up this job, he felt something was wrong.But he couldn't shirk it, so he had to come.

It was only after he arrived that he realized that things were more complicated than he had imagined.Not all local officials are in favor of strengthening the embankment.Probably because it was just reinforced two years ago.At this time, it is of little significance to reinforce again, and it is a waste of time and money.

But the final decision to strengthen this section was obviously decided in the memorial submitted by the officials here.Of course, Kangxi will not report whatever is reported, and will send people to the local area to check the situation first, and then make a decision.

Apparently, the person who came to the local area to check the situation reached an agreement with the local officials, and they cheated together to reinforce the embankment that did not need to be reinforced.

He didn't believe that Fu Ling didn't notice this situation.But Fu Ling'a never mentioned it. Instead, he only focused on inspecting the progress of the project every day.

Thinking that this errand was ultimately in charge of by the Ministry of Industry, Ba Ye had some guesses in his heart.Sure enough, this errand is not shallow!
After sitting in the room for more than an hour, Ba Ye finished writing the memorial.

"Master Belle, do you want some supper?" Chen Guo asked from the side.

Ba Ye didn't eat much during dinner.

"What else is there to eat in the kitchen?" Eighth Master asked.They live in the local governor's office, not as casually as in their own house.

"Slave, go and see what you can get quickly." Chen Guo said.

"Yeah." Ba Ye nodded, "It's really not possible, a bowl of hot noodle soup is fine."

"Okay, this servant will go right away. Lord Belle wait a moment." Chen Guo responded.

Ba Ye rubbed his swollen temples, closed his eyes and got up.

A quarter of an hour later, when Chen Guo came back with the food box, she found that Master Ba had fallen asleep leaning against the back of the chair.

"Master Baylor!" Chen Guo hurriedly called.Sleeping like this is the easiest way to catch a cold, so he couldn't help being a little anxious, so he picked up the cloak hanging on the shelf and covered it for Ba Ye.

"Hmm." Eighth Master replied confusedly.

"Master Baylor, the hot noodle soup is here." Chen Guo said.

Ba Ye opened his eyes and looked at the cloak on his body, and couldn't help but smile, "I said I closed my eyes and rested my mind, but I didn't expect to fall asleep!"

"Master Baylor has been working hard these days." Chen Guo said, "You should go to bed early after finishing your midnight snack. If Mao Fangfujin finds out about this, he must blame the slave for not taking good care of you."

"Tongtong?" Ba Ye was slightly startled, and then the smile on his face became even wider, "Don't worry, I will say something nice to you when I get back!"

Chen Guo said with a bitter face: "Master Baylor, it's useless to say good things! When Fujin saw your thin face, it's useless to say anything!"

"Hahaha!" Ba Ye couldn't help laughing when he thought about how Mao Tongtong would blow his hair every time.

"This master can't help you anymore." Ba Ye smiled and said, "That's how I am, every time I go out."

Chen Guo actually mentioned Mao Tongtong on purpose.He could tell that Ba Ye hadn't been in a good mood these past few days, and he was deliberately trying to make him happy.Speaking of leaving Beijing for more than half a month, Ba Ye must also miss Mao Tongtong very much.

"The kitchen stewed an old hen today, and the slave asked the cook to cook the noodles in clear soup with no oil. Lord Baylor, eat some while it's hot." Chen Guo brought out the steaming noodles from the food box.

"If it's in the mansion, Tongtong will be resting at this hour." Ba Ye said to himself.

"Ci Fujin is afraid of the cold, and I'm afraid it will snow in Beijing, so he must be asleep at this hour." Chen Guo said.

"That's right. Ever since she had a miscarriage that year, she has been particularly afraid of the cold." As Master Ba said, a trace of guilt flashed across his face.

Chen Guo cried out inwardly, why did Ba Ye think of this.This is a knot in Ba Ye's heart.Although I don't mention this matter on weekdays, every time I think about it, I will blame myself.

"Grandpa, hurry up and have a supper, the dough won't taste good after a while." Chen Guo could only forcefully change the subject.

"Yeah." Fortunately, Ba Ye didn't lose his appetite because of this, he just muttered that he had to finish his errands and return to Beijing earlier.

In Yileyuan, Mao Tongtong was lying in the warm bathtub, so comfortable that he didn't want to get up.

"Master, it's late at night, you'd better go to bed early." Qingzhu persuaded.

"I want to fall asleep like this right now." Mao Tongtong smiled lightly.If Master Ba was here, she could act like a baby and ask Master Ba to hug her directly on the bed.No matter how tired I am now, I still have to go by myself.

"Master is very tired today. Tomorrow, the servant will let the kitchen cook some nourishing soup to nourish the master. You still have a lot to do in the next few days!" Qingzhu said distressedly.

"Yes! Still busy." Mao Tongtong nodded.

Mrs. Zhang needs to be appeased, and Hong Dun's matter needs to be investigated, which is not easy.Also, how would she tell Baye about Hong Dun's death?
Should I wait for Ba Ye to come back, or write a letter from home?

Speaking of which, Ba Ye has been away for so long, and she has only received a letter from home.It is very busy to come to Baye.If she told Ba Ye the bad news at this time, it would definitely affect his mood on business trips abroad.

After much deliberation, Mao Tongtong still decided not to tell Ba Ye.

"Master, will Big Brother bring you back tomorrow?" Qing Zhu asked again.

"Ah, yes, there is also Tuantuan!" Mao Tongtong closed her eyes, she hadn't had time to deliver the letter to Mrs. Chen.

"The current situation in the mansion is like this, so don't pick it up for the time being. Tomorrow, someone will send a letter to Ama and Er Niang. Briefly tell me about the current situation in the mansion." Mao Tongtong said.

"Yes, servant girl will arrange it tomorrow morning." Qingzhu replied.

"Get up. It's time to go to bed too. I have to get up early tomorrow." Mao Tongtong took a deep breath, cheered up and stood up.

No matter how difficult it is at this time, she must persevere.When Ba Ye was around, she could be lazy and rely on him; now that Ba Ye was not there, she had to help Ba Ye take care of the Baylor House, so that he could have peace of mind when he was outside.

Two people who love each other are not someone's vassal or someone's reliance, but they can lean on each other and support each other and become each other's pillars!

 My male god was sick last night, and he didn't go to sleep until midnight.Only now have I had time to write a chapter.There should be another update later in the evening.sorry.
