Chapter 298: The Wives in Jingchai Cloth Skirt (3)
"Should you go back after the breach is repaired?" Han Qian asked.

Mrs. He shook his head: "Not so fast. It's not certain whether we can go back. If the rain stops, the water may not necessarily recede. There is so much water in the Jinhe River, even if the breach is blocked, the entire county will become a piece of land. Wang Yang, if you want the water to recede, you still need to divert it."

"This, the government will think of a way, right?"

"Ze County has not encountered a flood for more than ten years. Most of the rivers used for drainage have been filled and used as cultivated land, so...it's hard to say! It is not easy to dig these rivers again." He He Shi shook his head helplessly again, and sighed, "Water conservancy projects... are really difficult. I can't say what to do with a woman from my family. I heard that the government spends money every year to control the water, but we people don't know what to do." What results do you see... Sigh!"

"Then what's going on? Has the money been embezzled by those officials?" Han Qian asked wonderingly.

"This... the slave family is really hard to say. The slave family is a woman... and there is no chance to find out about those things. However, the slave family only knows that the government just asked the farmers to pay more for those things that were filled up by the river and turned into plowing fields. [-]% of the tax is enough, no more asking. And [-]% of the tax... probably won't be handed over, so it's a private benefit for them." After He finished speaking, he sighed and shook his head .

"I understand. Although this is not greedy, it is also seeking personal gain!" Han Qian gritted his teeth secretly, and must tell the emperor's brother about this, and must punish those dog officials who only have money eyes, are short-sighted, and entrap the people!
When it was dark, He Zhenzhen woke up.

"Really! Hurry up, kowtow to your benefactor!" Mrs. He hurriedly said while helping her daughter up, "Kowtow to your benefactor quickly."

He Zhenzhen obediently got off the bed and knelt down towards Han Qian.

"Don't! Get up." Looking at the little girl's thin and pale face, Han Qian hurriedly raised his hand and said, "It's just a matter of lifting a finger."

"It's a piece of cake for Ms. Han, but it's a life-saving grace for our mother and I." He followed her daughter and kowtowed to Han Qian again.

Han Qian silently clenched her hands in her sleeves, feeling an inexplicable sense of arrogance in her heart, not because someone kowtowed to her or thanked her, but because she really saved a life, she was not an incompetent foodie, she Useful, can help the emperor's brother, can help these disaster victims.

Dinner is still the white porridge with pickled vegetables provided by the inn. At such a time, white porridge is simply a delicacy for the He mother and daughter.Seeing how happy they were eating, Han Qian smiled helplessly, put a piece of pickled cabbage in his mouth, and took a sip of the porridge while taking advantage of the indescribable saltiness.

That night, Yun Shuo did not come back.

With the help of He's mother and daughter, Han Qian felt much more at ease.At least there are people taking care of bathing and grooming.

This child He Zhenzhen is really tenacious. After eating a meal and sleeping overnight, he fully recovered the next day. He even washed Han Qian's face when he got up early in the morning. When Mrs. He combed Han Qian's hair , She also recited two poems from the "Book of Songs" on the side.

"The reeds are green, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Yiren are on the side of the water..."

When Han Qian heard this, she suddenly remembered the scene when her third brother said these words to her, and couldn't help laughing.Then he turned his head to look at the innocent little girl next to him, and felt that apart from being thin and pale, this little girl had nothing in common with him, but he just felt kind to him for no reason.

After breakfast, Han Qian wanted to go out for a walk again.But the guards outside did not dare to let her go out easily, for fear that the emperor would be angry when he came back.

He thought of a way, dressed Han Qian as a young man, put on the coarse clothes of ordinary people's homes, and messed up her bun, Han Qian said a lot of good things to the guards and then let out a few words. With a harsh word, the guards didn't dare to stop them, so they had to change their clothes and pretend to be ordinary people from the past, and followed Han Qian out.

Han Qian didn't go around the street this time, but went straight to the disaster relief shelter set up by the National Medical Center in Cao County.

The female medical officers were so busy that no one paid any attention to Han Qian and the others.Han Qian stood by for a while, and asked He in puzzlement, "Yesterday I saw so many people crowded in the corner waiting for alms, why no one came here to help?"

"Those people don't know medical skills..." He explained.

"What's the matter if you don't know medical skills? Can't you help these medical officers wipe the wounds of the patients, change the dressings, and if you can't help clean the place or boil water and decoct medicines, these things can always be done, right? " Han Qian asked with a frown.

"That's what the girl said. They can always do these things, but...they can't eat enough..."

"Don't do anything, just wait for the government's handouts, so you can have enough food?" Han Qian sneered.

He's speechless, she naturally knows that getting something for nothing is the most shameless thing in this world, but she doesn't know what to do, the government only gives the victims a bowl of porridge every day, they are beggars and homeless in this city, they have no autonomy at all sex.

"Well, I'll find a way to get some food, and then... whoever comes here to help, can decide to give an extra bowl of porridge or steamed buns every day according to how the work is done." Han Qian said, turning around and telling one of his guards, "You, find a way to contact my mother, just say that I have no food here, and ask if the family can send some food here."

"Girl, there is no need to send a letter back. It is said that your elder brother is in Cao County. I think he must have a way to get food." The guard leaned back and replied.

"Really?" Han Qian's eyes lit up immediately, "Where is Big Brother?"

"We just received the message, but we haven't seen the general himself yet. But as long as we send the message, the general will definitely come to see you." The guard bowed and replied.

General!Standing beside Han Qian, Mrs. He trembled in fright. Miss Han's brother is a general? !

"Then send a letter to elder brother immediately, I want to see him as soon as possible." After Han Qian finished speaking, she turned and left.

Han Jianyuan soon came to see Han Qian. In fact, he knew Han Qian as soon as he appeared in Caozhou, but he was in the dark and it was not suitable to reveal his identity. He had been secretly watching the emperor and Han Qian.

Now that my sister is in need, Han Jianyuan will naturally arrive at the first time.

Han Qian was very happy to see her elder brother. The pain she had suffered in the past few days came to her head, and she almost cried again. However, because she was afraid that her elder brother would send her back to the capital, she suppressed her tears and cried out with a silly smile. One voice: "Brother."

Of course, Han Qian didn't cry, Han Jianyuan was very surprised, he was ready to see this girl cry, and then took the opportunity to persuade her to go back.

"Brother, I need food." Han Qian said, pulling Han Jianyuan's sleeve.
