Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

  Chapter 975 Situation

  Ye Muyu looked at it, and subconsciously asked: "Why is there no specific size ratio?"

  The county magistrate didn't understand why she asked this question.

  Chu Heng heard her words, but added the size on the map.

   "In fact, according to the specific area, the same scale can be used to display it on the same map, which will be much clearer."

  After Ye Muyu finished speaking, seeing that Chu Heng was busy, she stopped talking.

  Turn around and talk to the owner of the yard.

   "Ma'am, what do you want me to do with my old lady?" An old woman had gray hair, a face full of dimples, and the skin on her hands was dry and cracked due to long-term farm work.

  Ye Muyu sighed that the life of the old farmer was sad, but at the same time, he did not forget to ask the business: "Auntie, how many locust trees are there in your village?"

  After listening to her describe the species of locust tree, the old woman suddenly realized: "Ah, the tree Madam mentioned, to be honest, there are not many in the village."

   "How many nearby villages?" Ye Muyu asked again.

"Actually, a lot of trees here have been cut down." The old woman didn't understand the benefits of planting trees, so she explained the reason: "Originally, the village also grew rice grains, but the output has not been high, and other coarse grains are needed to grow rice." Barely full."

"However, in recent years, there has been a lot of rain, and the terrain of our village is relatively low, and food is often flooded." The old woman smiled bitterly: "Because of this, the originally fertile fields gradually became ordinary land, and the yield was even higher. few."

  "People in the village can't live well, so they can only chop firewood to sell. Some good-quality trees can also be used to repair houses. Slowly, there are fewer trees."

  After hearing this, Ye Muyu was speechless for a while, thinking that there were really no trees in the village along the way.

   She reacted quickly, and continued to ask: "I came here from the hillside next to the river, and there are still some trees over there."

   "Over there is the public forest. We ordinary people don't dare to chop the books of the imperial court. If we are caught, we will go to jail." The old woman was taken aback, and waved her hand: "Madam, you should also pay attention."

   "Thank you for reminding me, Auntie." Ye Muyu understood now, because of the flood, the tree was cut down, and the tree was cut down, the more the flood came, the more serious the flood would be.

  I also heard the old woman say: "So, the young people in the village have gone out to Yuzhou. There is no way to survive in the village. They can carry things at the pier to make money."

   "Ma'am, are the two adults here to control the flood? If you can strengthen the dam upstream, it will definitely have an effect."

  Ye Muyu didn't speak rashly, after all, the issue of the embankment has always been sensitive.

  Because of this, many magistrates were replaced.

  Ye Muyu finished asking about the situation. Although she was a little disappointed, she thought that although there were few pagoda trees in Lin Village, there were other villages with public forests, so there was always a way to plant them.

   When she came back from asking about the situation, Chu Heng had already discussed with the county magistrate, and the two planned to go to a further river to see.

  Chu Heng did not take her this time: "This journey will be very bumpy, and you will be very tired if you go."

   "That's fine." Ye Muyu didn't force it.

   Chu Heng didn't come back until the sun was about to set in the afternoon.

   After that, he didn't stay any longer, and got into the carriage and went back to the county.

  Yuzhou can't go back for the time being, and will spend more time in the counties below.

  In the evening, Chu Heng was summoned by the county magistrate to have dinner.

  Ye Muyu met the female family member of the magistrate.

   Fortunately, she often went to banquets in Nanchang County, and there was nothing wrong with it. Ye Muyu sat down for dinner, and when she returned to the guest house, she was almost exhausted and paralyzed.
