Chapter 196 Follow (1) ([-])
Wei Ying put on her clothes and sat down at the table to have breakfast.Here, as soon as you enter the yard, there are servants sleeping on the floor in the hall, and the dining table is placed in the outer room of the master bedroom.

He bowed his head to pick up vegetables and grilled rice, and he didn't have much time to go on the embankment, so he drank very little water, let alone porridge.So I made dry rice for breakfast.He raised his head and saw Shen Ji coming out in a Hu suit, "What are you doing?"

"After breakfast, I'll go to the embankment with you to see if there is any logistical work that can be done." Shen Ji picked up the meal and ate.

Wei Ying frowned, "There are no women on the embankment."

"Is there any taboo?" There are some taboos that Shen Ji knows, for example, women are not allowed to enter the tribute courtyard, and it is inauspicious to enter.Although she doesn't take it seriously, she still has to obey it when she goes to the country to do as the Romans do.

"That's not true, but there are hundreds of peasants and soldiers on the embankment. Which woman would go to the embankment. It will naturally become a forbidden area after a long time. It is better not to go to such a chaotic scene."

Shen Ji thought about it: "I'm not going to the embankment, I'll just build a row of sheds nearby. Bring some people with me, make some ginger soup, it can always be done. There's no need to show your face, it's not allowed ?”

Wei Ying thought for a while, "That's fine, you can go." After eating, she got up and took the silver that Shen sent to him when she left Beijing before, and used it for her household, and there were two or three hundred taels left.All the money on her body was robbed, and it was enough to wait for the capital to send money after this period of time.What's more, there is no need for a capital here, and it is not so expensive to meet the needs of life.

Shen Ji accepted it with a smile, and went in to get the coat that he took off yesterday.It was two layers specially sewn, and she didn't dare to go into the water, so she also wore a close-fitting one underneath, which she changed and washed every day.Coming all the way, she almost covered her with prickly heat.Fortunately, after going south, it began to rain and the weather became much cooler.

Wei Ying watched her take apart her middle coat, and several bank notes fell out from the cracks, the amount was not small.He looked at himself begging for praise, but gave her a few hard glances, "You have so many tricks, and you don't even think about the use of these little cleverness if someone else robs you together." The consequence is that he unbearable.

Shen Ji rubbed his nose, "I didn't expect the world to be so chaotic. Didn't you say it was a peaceful and prosperous age?"

Wei Ying sighed, "Light and shadow always coexist. On the contrary, because of the light, the darkness is ignored by many people."

Shen Ji collected all the money together, and after thinking about it, it might not be safe to leave it in the house, so he took it and handed it to Aunt Wei for safekeeping.

"Where are you going?" Aunt Wei asked suspiciously.

Shen Ji said it.

Aunt Wei frowned, how could any official family member do these things.He wanted to persuade Shen to send him away, but it was useless considering her temper.Besides, Grandpa agreed.

"I just stayed in the shed. The main reason is that Brother Wei is busy outside. I can't help anything, so I just wait at home. This feeling is a bit uncomfortable." After Shen Ji finished speaking, he covered his face with a gauze of the same color as his clothes, Go out and sit in Wei Ying's green wool official sedan chair, and go up to the embankment together.

"The county magistrate is here!" Someone gave way along the way, and it seemed that Wei Ying's act of going up to the embankment to direct was indeed very popular.When they reached a place where sedan chairs were not allowed, Shen Ji followed Wei Ying down and walked towards the embankment.Holding an umbrella, Wei Ying occasionally reached out to give her a hand.It was very strange for him to bring a female family member, especially with a few maidservants behind him, so many people looked at him for a while.

"Master Wei!" Several old men came over and bowed to Wei Ying.

"Mr. Dong, Mr. He, Mr. Qi, you are all here. How was the situation last night?"

"It's raining less, and twice the ones that were afraid of breaking through were blocked in advance. It's okay! Who is this?"

"This is my wife. She came from the capital and arrived last night. She said she wanted to see what she could do."

Several people looked at each other suspiciously, and saw Shen Ji squatting down, "Mr. Dong, Mr. He, Mr. Qi!"

The few people hurriedly said: "Don't dare, Madam Wei is here, and I will be worshiped by the little old man."

Shen Ji turned sideways, "You are all experts in water conservancy, the little lady just spares no effort to boil some ginger soup and mend clothes, I dare to be worshipped by you."

Those people saw her with maids and servants behind her, all of them were dressed to facilitate work, even she herself was dressed in a narrow-sleeved Hu dress, with a pot and stove, and a basket of coarse porcelain bowls on the ginger altar, Soon he set up the stove and started working, and the young and virtuous corporal, the county magistrate, had already started to patrol the embankment, so they all followed.After less than an hour, a long row of simple sheds was erected not far from the embankment.

The peasants on the embankment and even the soldiers looked at them curiously, and then worked harder.The county magistrate is right, this is to protect the homeland, and he does not contribute, so he can count on others.The new county magistrate seems to be a worker, and the matriarch of the county magistrate is also very interesting. She even thought of coming here to make ginger soup for them to mend their clothes.

In the beginning, it was only the soldiers who came to drink ginger soup. It rained heavily and soaked in the water all day, even though it was summer, it was a bit unbearable.Now that the situation is more critical than before, Wei Ying discussed with Lin Xiaowei and transferred some soldiers to work together with civilian husbands.As for Lieutenant Lin, he led his men to arrest the rogues who robbed Shen Ji and others when they entered Nanyuan County.Those were refugees from Nanyuan County. If they were allowed to go out and cause chaos, the county magistrate and county magistrate of Nanyuan County, as well as Lieutenant Lin, the top military figure who had just been transferred, would have countless troubles.Although Wei Ying felt that it was not appropriate to blindly exterminate them, water control was the first priority at this time.There is a county magistrate who doesn't do anything. Now he, the county magistrate, is the highest officer again, and he doesn't have the energy to care about what Lieutenant Lin will do.

The civilian husband was recruited by force, and he was driven and oppressed by the soldiers until Wei Ying and Lin Xiaowei had a good communication.Lieutenant Lin and Wei Ying are in the same situation, they were both demoted because they offended someone.It's just that Wei Ying offended the emperor and was directly demoted two levels.And Lieutenant Lin offended Shangfeng in the army, and he was the original level.Of course, it was transferred here from a place with a lot of oil and water.

The two naturally had a lot in common.Lieutenant Lin was annoyed at first, but when he saw that someone was more unlucky than him, he suddenly regained his balance.The status of civil servants is higher than that of military officials, so the compilation of Zhengliupin has a higher status than the school lieutenant of Zhengliupin.Now that they have been demoted to the county magistrate, the two have no affiliation. Lieutenant Lin knows that Wei Ying is a prodigy, so he doesn't dare to underestimate it.Coupled with drinking a few times together, talking about the depression in their hearts and their prospects for the future, the two of them wanted to make some achievements and leave this ghost place, so there was a bit of sympathy for each other.

Therefore, before Wei Ying and Lin Xiaowei said that they should not blindly drive away the peasants, he would only listen to the words of kindness and power.Seeing Wei Ying ascending to the top and shouting, those folk husbands were more convinced of him.So let him sing the red face, and he will sing the bad face.Of course, for lazy people, Wei Ying's punishment is not lighter than him.He looked at it and felt that this young civil servant was actually quite cold-hearted, and there was a hint of killing and decisiveness in it.It's much better than those scholars who have no power to restrain their chickens and speak sour prose.Therefore, besides sympathy and sympathy, he valued three more points.
