Rebirth of First Daughter

The villagers of Liujia village were sleeping soundly when suddenly there was a harsh sound of gongs outside. The sound of the Gong awakened all the sleeping villagers, and many children cried. Liu Ersao covered her little son's mouth and said, "don't cry." There must have been something serious, otherwise the mayor would not have been gonging at this time.

As soon as the child's crying stopped, Mrs. Liu heard Li Chang shouting: "there's a flood. Everyone, get up quickly."

The chief's son is a constable in the county government. As soon as he gets the news, he asks his son to send a letter back overnight. As soon as the mayor heard that there was a flood, he ordered his family to pack up their things and go to the mountain, so he took gongs to inform the villagers.

Liu San's sister-in-law was stunned when she heard this. It was her husband Liu San who slapped her on the back and then woke her up: "what's the matter? Hurry to pack up and take things to the mountain." Before the rainstorm, people were worried about the flood. I thought the rain had stopped, but I didn't expect the flood to come.

Liu San's sister-in-law came back, dressed her little son quickly, and woke up the two older children. Then she asked the eldest daughter and the eldest son to help her husband, and she packed up her clothes and put valuable jewelry and gold and silver into the package.

Liu San put the rice, noodles, other vegetables, clothes and bedding in the basket, and then moved them to the mule cart. Seeing that his wife even had to put the pots and pans on the mule cart, Liu San couldn't bear it and said, "don't take them any more. Hurry up. If the flood comes later, you can't go any more." The three Lius are relatively rich in Liujia village, otherwise they would not have mule carts.

Behind Liujia village is Dashan. The highest mountain is more than 100 feet. All these forests are covered with trees and grass. When the flood comes, it's best to hide on it. And the mountain is high enough that the flood can't reach it.

When they got to the foot of the mountain, they saw some people coming down from the mountain. These people are going back to carry things.

Although there are many things in the mule cart, it can't reach the top of the mountain, it can only reach the middle of the mountain.

Halfway up the mountain, Liu San unloaded the mule cart, put some things on the mule's back, and then picked up four baskets from the carriage. Liu San handed a shoulder pole to his sister-in-law and said, "hurry up and take the child up the mountain. I'll drive the mules behind." Mules have a lot of things on their backs. They will certainly walk very slowly.

Just at this time, there was a rumbling sound in the distance.

Li Chang had experienced the flood. Looking at the distant scene, his face changed greatly. He yelled to the people at the foot of the mountain: "the flood is coming. Let's run up the mountain. No matter how it is, it's very important to lose it and run up the mountain. " They were all big and small, and they were very slow. But this will hear the cry of Li Chang, many people will leave things and run up the mountain.

Seeing that Liu Sansao's legs were soft, Liu San said, "we are in the middle of the mountain, and the flood is not so fast. Take the children to the top of the mountain. I'll be there soon He was still reluctant to give up his mule and the things on it.

Liu San's eldest daughter is very sensible. She leads her second younger brother and carries her younger brother on her back. She runs up the mountain as fast as she can. Seeing that the child was running towards the top of the mountain, Mrs. Liu also rushed to the top with two baskets of things.

The flood roared in the distance and engulfed their village in an instant.

When Mrs. Liu got to the top of the mountain, she put down her things and looked back to see that the flood had already reached the middle of the mountain. Mrs. Liu knelt down on the ground and cried out, "master, where are you?" If there is something wrong with those in charge, how can they live as orphans and widows?

Liu Sansao, who was crying, saw Liu San coming with a load of things.

He touched the sweat on his forehead, put things beside Mrs. Liu and said, "there are still a lot of things under. I'll take him up." Without waiting for Mrs. Liu to react, she went down again.

In Liu Sansao's heart, Liu San came back with a big bag of things on his back. As for mules, they are gone.

Next to a woman sitting on the ground howling: "God, there is no house, no food, nothing, how can people live?"

When Mrs. Liu heard these words, her tears immediately fell. In such a big flood, the house and the grain hidden in the cellar must not be preserved. Their husband and wife worked hard to save this family property, which was destroyed by the flood.

Liu San also has tears in his eyes, but he is a man and stronger. He helped Mrs. Liu up and said, "people are more important than anything. As long as people are there, things can be bought again. " He said this to comfort his wife. In this world, it's really unknown whether he can live without food.

To appease his wife, Liu San had time to look down at the flood that was halfway up the mountain.

You can see countless things floating on the water. There was thatch and firewood, furniture and clothes, and dead cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks. The most frightening thing is the bodies floating on the water, old, young and young, all swollen, which makes people tremble.

There are also living people floating on the water with boards in their arms. When they see someone crying out for help on the mountain, "help, help

When the people on the mountain heard these cries for help, no one went down. In such a big flood, if you go to save people, you will put yourself in.

At this time, a man holding a big pine tree cried out: "uncle, I'm ah Xing. Uncle, I'm ah Xing. Help me."

No one wants to take his own life for an outsider. But if it's your own family, it's another matter.

After hearing the call for help, the commander immediately called on two young and strong men, each with a twisted straw rope around his waist, and then went into the water to save people.

This ah Hsing was very lucky to be rescued. As soon as he went ashore, he immediately held Li Chang in his arms and cried out: "uncle, it's gone. It's gone. Grandfather and parents are gone." A Xing's family is from the town. They get the news after dawn, and the town is not like Liujia village. There are mountains behind them, so they can run to the mountains to avoid the flood. So when the flood came, they couldn't avoid it and were all involved.

As soon as ah Hsing cried, all the people on the mountain burst into tears. They cry not only for the lost home, but also for the fear of the future. Soon, the whole mountain top was surrounded by sadness and despair.

Ten days later, the news of the flood in the south of the Yangtze River reached the northwest. Xu Wu wiped the sweat on his forehead and said in a low voice, "princess, there are floods in Jiangnan. Nearly half of the counties in Jiangxi, Anhui and Jiangsu were flooded. " As for the number of people killed or injured, they have not yet got any definite information. However, the flood is merciless, and Jiangnan is now in a terrible situation.

Although Yuxi had been prepared for this, her hand trembled when she heard Xu Wu's description. After a while, Yuxi said in a hoarse voice, "floods are often accompanied by pestilence. I hope Yu Baojia can prevent pestilence." During this period of time, Yuxi became angry and could not speak. Recently, I have been eating the medicinal diet of the whole mother.

Xu Wu said with a bitter smile, "if we write to remind us, I'm afraid we'll have to say that we have evil intentions." The princess's prediction of the northwest is accurate, but the prediction of the south is not accurate. Of course, Xu Wu knew that even if the princess predicted correctly, Yu Baojia and his family would not believe it.

Yuxi did not speak. It is also up to now that Yuxi feels that ignorance has the advantage of ignorance. At least not so much responsibility and burden.

At this time, Tan Tuo asked to see him. The flood is accompanied by the plague, and the drought is accompanied by the locust plague. Yuxi can't manage things in the south of the Yangtze River, but she can still decide things in the northwest. During this time, Tan Tuo was in charge of killing locusts.

Doctor Bai has been called to Ho City, and then invited several old farmers who have experienced locust plague. Come together to discuss a solution to the problem.

After research and groping, they found that locusts like to lay eggs in low-lying areas. So tan Tuo also came up with several methods. The first is to cut off the water grass in the low-lying water area and dry it in the sun. After drying, it can be used as fuel and remove the locust spawning place; Second, encourage people to catch locust eggs; Third, we dig a long ditch for the newborn juveniles left after egg hunting. We dig a ditch every certain distance, and then let the people beat gongs to drive them away. The locusts jump into the ditch and fill it with soil.

"So far, a lot of locust eggs have been killed," Tan said. But there are too many in number and too many in scope to kill them all. " As Yuxi thought, now the whole northwest has become a hotbed for locust breeding and larval growth. They want to kill them all, but they can't.

Yuxi said: "we can destroy as many as we can, and try our best to minimize the loss." After a pause, Yuxi said, "in addition to killing these larvae and eggs, we have to be prepared to prevent locusts." Yuxi didn't want to see the locusts all over the city.

Tan Tuo said: "once there is a locust disaster, there is no good way except to catch and kill it. Therefore, we can only let the government below prepare more for the Internet. " As soon as the locusts appeared, they netted them and burned them.

Yuxi nodded his head and said, "Mr. Tan, just got the news that there was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, and nearly half of the counties and prefectures were flooded."

Tan Tuo was shocked and then looked uneasy: "princess, the flood in Jiangnan is not good news for us." Jiangnan is an important grain producing area. In previous years, they bought a large number of grain from Jiangnan. Now there are floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and the rich can't buy food.

Thinking of this, Tan Tuo felt a little lucky. Fortunately, they have been making preparations since last year, storing a lot of grain. Otherwise, now we are not only worried about the lack of water and the possible locust plague.

Yuxi said: "the flood in the south of the Yangtze River is bad news for the whole world."

Tan Tuo sighed and said, "it's drought and flood again. God is going to force people to death."

Yunqing back, Yuxi will tell him the news. After saying that, Yuxi said: "now, only Liaodong is in a better situation in the whole world." There was also a drought in Liaodong, but it was not serious. It didn't rain for more than a month. Compared with other disaster stricken provinces, this is nothing at all.

Cloud engine is very familiar with Liaodong, said: "although Liaodong is not affected by the disaster, the food it produces every year is not enough to supply the army. So there's no need to worry about Yan Wushuang's expansion. "

Yu Xi frowned and said, "what Yan Wushuang wants to do will not affect us for the time being. What I am worried about now is the locust plague and the northern captivity." These two are related to their vital interests.

Yunqing said: "don't worry about the northern captives. The situation outside the Great Wall is not better than ours. I'm worried about locusts. " Because of the drought, large areas of grassland withered, cattle, sheep and horses from the North died in groups. They have nothing to eat. They will come to Central Plains for robbery. But now Yucheng has strong troops and excellent weapons, so it is not afraid of them. But they don't have a good solution to the locust plague that may come.
