Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 58 Relying on water to eat water, sister, you are so happy!

In Jiangning County, there are two major river systems, the Qinhuai River and the Yangtze River.

The Qinhuai River is the longest river in Jiangning County, running from north to south, with dense tributaries, irrigating more than half of the farmland in Jiangning County.

The source of farmland water conservancy in Tuqiao Village comes from the Qinhuai River.

The west of the county borders on the Yangtze River, and the river bank is 22.5 kilometers long. The Jiuxiang River, Qixiang River, and Jiangning River in the territory eventually flow into the Yangtze River.

Throughout Jiangning County, water systems and lakes are scattered all over.

It provides abundant water conservancy conditions for agricultural production in Jiangning.

But as with anything, there are pros and cons.

The water system is developed, floods are frequent, and the rainfall in summer is a little more abundant. The inland lakes cannot accommodate it, and the rivers cannot drain the water away at the fastest speed, and backflow will occur.

The water in the river will either break down the dams and flood the county town.

Either follow the farmland water conservancy and flood the farmland with reverse irrigation.

In short, any situation is unacceptable to Jiangning County officials and the people.

Floods will affect people's livelihood.

It will affect the performance of officials for a year, and even be held accountable by the court.

Regarding the corvee, although the common people have complaints, they will not be sloppy, and they dare not!

Outside the county seat.

On the embankment of the Qinhuai River.

The crowd was full of people.

Rows of thatch-roofed pavements built of bamboo are arranged on the river embankment.

Zhu Di and his party left late, and the distance was not close. They were the last batch to arrive.

Registration office.

The petty official glanced at Zhu Di in disgust, and said coldly: "You were notified ten days ago, why are you here now!"

"My lord, we left yesterday, we are far away from Tuqiao Village..." Zhu Di responded with a smile.

The officials touched each other's lips and spoke lightly.

Everyone who is not pinching the time to come here.

As for why.

That would be too simple.

At home, if you don't eat idle food, you can always do a day's work if you eat what you need for a day.

As a farmer, no matter whether God rewards food or not, those who are diligent are better than those who are lazy.

Can I serve corvee?
Bring your own tools and dry food!
Come one day early, just eat a day of idle food!
Be a farmer, eat idle food, panic!

Telling these to the officials, they can neither empathize nor understand, so he is too lazy to waste his saliva.

Just make up a reason, and you can fool it!
The little official glanced at Zhu Di coldly, and urged impatiently: "Name!"

"Zhu Silang, the leader of Tuqiao Village!"

When the clerk heard the leader, he looked at Zhu Di in surprise, and while registering his name, reminded him: "Since you are the leader, I will have a few more words with you."

"Restrain the people in your village."

"During corvée service, don't make trouble!"

"Follow the arrangement!"

"If one person makes trouble, the whole village will sit together!"

"Your residence in the village is on the far left, at the Datong shop on the top."

The little official said, and handed Zhu Di a bamboo stick: "The number on it represents your number. Every day when you go to work, the supervisors must register your number and check your attendance."

"If someone is sick, you, as the team leader, should report it immediately, and the county government will send a doctor to check it and treat it."

"The inspection found that it was pretending to be sick, and the big board took care of it!"

"If you are really sick, you have to pay for the medical expenses yourself!"

"Tomorrow, the county lord will come to the river embankment to mobilize and speak. You must welcome him with full energy and enthusiasm. If you lose the chain, the county lord will lose face and be served by the big board!"

"do you understand?!"

"Understood, understood." Zhu Di replied while cursing secretly.

If you are not a farmer, you may never know what the life of the peasants is like.

The old man has a high probability, and he doesn't know, what kind of dog virtues are the officials under his command who govern the people?
Of course, this is the case in the Ming Dynasty.

The Qin Dynasty of the First Emperor, the Han Dynasty of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty of Emperor Taizong...

The most glorious period of all dynasties, I am afraid that most of them are just like this bird!
The 48 people in Tuqiao Village registered one by one, and it was already dark.

The little official looked at the sky, cursed in a low voice, and hurried away on horseback.

Zhu Di led the people, and according to the little official, they found the Datong shop arranged for them at the top of the leftmost corner.

Shabby and not presentable.

Build a frame out of bamboo poles.

There is very little thatch on the top, and in some places, you can still see the sky.

Definitely leaks when it rains.

There were tattered mats hanging all around.

Inside the house, there is an aisle in the middle, and Datong shop made out of bamboo boards on both sides.

It's like going to the grave and burning newspapers, fooling ghosts!

Even the grass on the ground was not shoveled, and the weeds growing in the riverside tidal flats such as the aisles in the house and the reeds under the bed were lush.

Zhu Di turned around and looked at the crowd, and asked, "Are you tired, do you still have the strength to tidy up our place?"

Uncle Ba laughed and said, "Silang, we peasants, if we have nothing else, we have a lot of strength. How can we clean it up? Just follow orders!"

"Yes! Fourth brother, just tell me what to do!"

……

Everyone laughed and expressed their support.

Zhu Di went to Tuqiao Village and gradually affected the whole village.

In the past, the vast majority of men did not have the habit of actively tidying up the yard.

But watching Zhu Di tidy up every day, clean and fresh, gradually, many people began to follow suit.

Slowly it becomes a habit.

The current situation was difficult for Zhu Di to accept, and it was the same for everyone else.

Zhu Di laughed and said, "Fourth Uncle took a few people to a place farther away, and chose a clean bay to fetch water."

"The rest of the people, clean up the reeds and weeds in and around the house, so that we can avoid snakes and mosquitoes, and we will live in a safe and comfortable place."

"A good rest is one of the necessary conditions for coping with heavy physical work."

"Don't throw away the reeds and weeds either."

Saying that, Zhu Di pointed to the roof, "This roof, if it rains heavily outside, it will rain moderately inside."

"The reeds and weeds are drying in the sun for a few days. Let's take the time to spread them on the roof. After all, we will live here for a while. It's better to be prepared than to hold Buddha's feet temporarily."

No one knows if it will rain during the period.

If you catch a cold in the rain, you have to spend money.

For farmers, every penny can't wait to be broken into several petals.

There are ways to save, why not do it?It's just a matter of time and effort.

Soon, everyone started to move.

Roll up the tattered matting all around.

Light a bonfire inside and outside the shed.

At the same time, the smoke can also repel mosquitoes.

The movement here alarmed the villagers in other sheds.

"Which village is this?"

"Tuqiao Village!"

"Are they cleaning? Hypocritical! They don't want to live here for a long time. Why waste this energy?"

……

The villagers who flocked out to watch saw the behavior of Zhu Di and others, either puzzled, or laughed and discussed.

Everyone in Tuqiao Village ignored it.

Those who watched the excitement gradually realized that they were not interested, and returned to the shed one after another.

An hour later.

Zhu Di led the people to melt the ash left over from the burning in water, and then sprinkled the water inside and outside the shed on the cleaned ground.

The cleaning is over.

Everyone looked at the fruits of their labor and smiled with satisfaction.

The eighth uncle greeted by the bonfire outside the shed: "The water is boiling, everyone come to fill the water, just eat some dry food with this hot water, and go to bed early."

……

Just when everyone was blowing the refreshing wind of summer night and eating dry food.

The shed in front suddenly became lively again.

"The flower boat is coming!"

"Come and see the flower boat, the girl in the flower boat is so white and tender!"

"Those of us, for the rest of our lives, we don't even have the chance to touch other people's hands. Being able to take a look is a gift from God!"

……

The adjacent shed, facing the side of the Qinhuai River, is rolled up by the villagers.

A group of men, shirtless, climbed on the bamboo poles and looked ahead.

Uncle Ba and the others also forgot to eat and looked around curiously.

Zhu Di watched, couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, and thought of the sentence: A man will be a boy until he dies!

Soon, bursts of melodious piano sounds came, and Zhu Di followed the sound of the piano, and saw a very brightly decorated boat hung with red pastel gauze, swaying along with the current.

The melodious sound of the piano floats on both sides of the Qinhuai River.

"sounds so good!"

"In the cabin, the one who plays the piano must be Yangzhou Shouma."

"Brother Big Tiger, have you seen the Yangzhou skinny horse?"

"Of course I have!"

"Dahu, tell us what the Yangzhou skinny horse looks like!"

"Yangzhou thin horse has a slender body, big breasts, and most importantly, a pair of small feet, like horseshoes, so it is called Yangzhou thin horse?"

……

puff!
Listening to the bragging in the shed next door, Zhu Di almost burst out laughing.

The folks who were listening to the sound came to see one after another, and a young man was itchy and asked: "Fourth brother, have you seen the Yangzhou skinny horse?"

"No, I haven't seen it before." Zhu Di shook his head again and again.

He has never seen it, but he knows the so-called Yangzhou skinny horse.

Don't tell the folks about this kind of thing.

Not a good thing.

Flower boats pass by from time to time.

Or singing songs in Wu Nong's soft language, or playing the piano, or...

Zhu Di counted, and in just one hour, seventy or eighty ships passed by!

When he was reborn as a prince for more than a month, he once visited Qinhuai River in Jinling City admiringly.

Jinling city section is very quiet at night.

I thought that the Qinhuai River in the time of the old man did not have the smell of rouge.

Looking at it now, it’s not that there is no such thing, it’s that the rich and powerful dare not do this in the Jinling section of the Qinhuai River. Outside the Jinling area, this kind of “love affairs” that seek flowers and ask willows has quietly prevailed in the dark under the lights...

This is also easy to understand.

People need to feel satisfied and stimulated.

Ordinary people, if they manage their ordinary life well, they can get a sense of spiritual satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment from it.

People with money and power get too much.

Life is boring, you have to find a way to seek excitement.

Shaking on the couch at home.

It can't be compared with fireworks and willow lanes and couch shakes.

The fireworks in Liuxiang can't compare with the swaying of the boat on the river.

Looking at the sparkling water surface under the moonlight, Zhu Di was in a daze.

……

sometime.

Uncle Yang got tired of watching it, so he came to sit down beside Zhu Di, and asked with a smile, "Silang, what are you thinking about?"

Returning to his senses, Zhu Di pointed to the river and said with a smile: "Whether those people sitting in the flower boat are worried or not, and at the same time, they are also wondering whether we can rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water, and get some fish from the river, so that they are meaty, strong in work, and not tired."

"I think it will work!" Eighth Uncle couldn't help but excitedly said.

Immediately, he greeted everyone: "Don't look at it! Come in, Shiro has something to discuss with everyone!"

……

Tuqiao Village.

Inside the hut.

The candles in the house have been extinguished.

The weather was muggy and the small window was open.

Moonlight poured down the windows into the house.

On the desk, Xu Miaoyun burned the mugwort incense made from wormwood slowly, with a quiet smell, neither strong nor weak, which drove away mosquitoes.

on the bed.

Xu Miaoyun lay flat, staring blankly at the roof...

Has Shiro arrived in Jiangning County?

How are the living conditions?
Is it bad?Did you have a good meal...

After calming down, all kinds of worries and worries popped up uncontrollably.

rustling...

There was a slight noise from the side, Xu Miaoyin turned over and hugged Xu Miaoyun.

Xu Miaoyun turned around and asked with a smile, "Why haven't you slept yet?"

"Sister, are you still worried about brother-in-law, whether he can't eat well and sleep well? Don't worry, brother-in-law can manage this small family so warmly, and he will definitely be able to take care of himself." Xu Miaoyin comforted with a smile.

Xu Miaoyun reached out and pinched Xu Miaoyin's face, "It's so hot, don't hug her so tightly!"

Xu Miaoyin smiled and said: "You really can't sleep, you can lean in my arms and treat me as your brother-in-law."

"Dead girl!"

lol...

The delicate laughter sounded...

After the laughter subsided, Xu Miaoyin hugged Xu Miaoyun's hand and whispered enviously: "Sister, you are so happy!"

Hearing this, under the moonlight, Xu Miaoyun's pretty face was slightly red, with a smile on her lips, she closed her eyes, "Sleep!"
