Chapter 44 Miscarriage
  Those who can be exiled are either treacherous and evil people, or people who have been wronged and feared by the court, but these people have high IQs. Even if they are exiled and tempered, their brains will not be lost.

Lin Hongyuan looked at the turbulent river and thought that it would rain from time to time in Lingnan. Even if the river embankment was raised, there was no guarantee that greater water would not come out next time and destroy the embankment that was finally built.

What's more, the officials don't provide any tools, so are they supposed to use their hands to plan?
  The people in Baixiang Village looked at each other in panic, not knowing what to do.

"Sir, do you think I can change it to a hoe?"

A man who looked slightly better dressed took an ingot of five taels of silver and quietly stuffed it into the officer's hand, with a look of flattery on his face.

The official in the raincoat had a fierce look on his face, he threw away the newly arrived silver and nodded with satisfaction.

"Go get one, but this hoe can only be used for a month. I want to use it in the future, you know."

The official laughed and sighed that he had gotten a good job this time, and his original depression had dissipated a lot.

The man who bribed him arrogantly took a hoe and started digging, without caring about the eyes of the people around him.

"What are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and do it quickly? Didn't you see that others have already started digging? Why, you are the only one special. Do you really want to eat my whip?"

"Snapped."

A whip hit the person who was still there motionless.

"How come this person has a hoe and I want it too? It's not fair, ah!"

"Grandma, if you don't eat the toast, you will be fined with wine. What kind of bullshit is this to disgust me? I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your ancestors today."

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Help! Please forgive me, sir! I don't dare to do it anymore!"

The man who uttered arrogant words was beaten with whips and rolled on the ground. Everyone who was still around him stayed away, for fear that they would be regarded as a group and receive a few whips.

Lin Hongyuan felt something was wrong when he heard Feng Shiyun say that this was the first time he was asked to build a river embankment. Could it be that the murder of Prince Jing's informant was exposed?
  Or was it told that Baixiang Village was deliberately making things difficult?
  All kinds of thoughts came to Lin Hongyuan's mind. He was afraid and couldn't stop the movements of his hands.

The people in Baixiang Village also followed the example of others, found a stick or stone, squatted on the ground and began to dig, and some even started digging with their hands.

Half a day passed. Even though there were many people, the progress without tools was quite impressive. Except for the man with a hoe who built a small mountain, the rest of the people were only piles of mud half a person high.

The water surface seems to have risen, and the weeds that were still clearly visible on the river bank have been submerged. If this continues, the river embankment may not be built and the water will spread directly.

The official boss who was resting nearby came back to see everyone's laziness and became furious.

"What did you do all morning? You just dug this little bit of soil all morning. Okay, very good. Don't even eat lunch today."

Lin Yixu looked at the blisters on his hands, and then at his wife who was shivering from the cold, digging into the soil with numb and bloody hands, and felt despair in her heart.

If this continues, they may really die here.

Behind the official, there was originally a man driving an ox cart with several large barrels on it. Now everyone can only watch away helplessly.

Not only were everyone extremely tired, but their stomachs were also growling.

Only the man with the hoe took two black steamed buns and wolfed them down, stuffing them into his stomach in just a few bites.

Lin Hongyuan sighed. If they continued like this, they would be exhausted and would not be able to finish. It seemed that they could not follow the officials' ideas and widening the river was the most correct choice.

"Yuda, what's wrong with you? Mother, please look at your daughter-in-law!" Lin Yiyan felt like a bolt from the blue when he was asked to serve. His wife had just become pregnant with her first child. Could it be that she couldn't keep it?

He approached his father, approached his uncle, and even offered money to see if the official would be accommodating, but was rejected.

On the way here, I made a human mat to avoid miscarriage, but after standing under the rain for a long time, my body temperature dropped little by little, and now I have to squat for half a day to work, so there is no problem.

"Blood, bleeding, oooo, madam, what should I do?"

Lin Yiyan, a seven-foot man, had tears all over his face, his voice was full of confusion and his expression was desperate.

Mrs. Min, who was so tired that her whole body was shaking, was about to take a rest when she heard her son's sad cry, "Yu Dai," her daughter-in-law.

What's up with her?
  She is pregnant. Why did she forget such an important thing?

"Get out of the way, let me see."

Mrs. Min struggled to get up, walked quickly to Lin Yiyan, and checked on her daughter-in-law, who was already dying of pain.

A large pool of blood flowed around her feet, which made Ms. Min feel dizzy. She was afraid that she could not save the child. This was her first grandson!
  He left before he could take a quick look at this world. He was given the wrong birth at the wrong time, and it didn't matter if he left, otherwise he would have suffered the consequences of being born in their family.

Mrs. Min sighed and said, "Dai'er, there will be children in the future. Don't be sad. Now cooperate with mother to expel the placenta."

Mrs. Min felt extremely aggrieved when she said this. It's really embarrassing that she can't even protect a pregnant woman these days.

"No, mother, I feel that the child is still with me, mother, please save him, I beg you to save her, woo woo woo, husband, save our child."

The moment Youdai heard that her child could not be saved, she collapsed. She frantically begged Min to save her child, holding her hand tightly with crazy and desperate eyes.

Lin Yiyan felt his wife's sadness, and stumbled to the official with Youdai in his arms.

"Sir, please find a doctor for my wife, please."

Lin Yiyan's tone was urgent, and he would save his child no matter what. Even if his mother said that the child could no longer be saved, this was his first child! This is the child that he and his wife have longed to be born!
  "Go away, bad luck."

When the officer saw a woman holding a miscarriage running up to him, he was sincerely trying to get himself into trouble, so his attitude was very bad.

"Sir, I beg you, my wife is pregnant, I have money, I will give you all my money, please save my child!"

Lin Yiyan didn't seem to listen to the scolding and threw out all the coins hidden in his clothes, but at best it was nothing. The official servant who had already developed an appetite would not look down on such a small amount of money, not to mention that he also hugged a A woman who had a miscarriage was very unlucky when she came to him.

"Didn't you hear me telling you to get out? Sir, I don't care about your little money."

The official kicked him directly, and he also got angry. Who was the copper plate insulting?

The Lin family's eyes widened when they saw this scene.

"My lord, my lord, this boy is ignorant and has caused you trouble. Your lord, please forgive him this time."

Lin Hongzhi bowed his waist, smiled with humility and flattery, said words of begging for mercy, and handed over two shiny gold pieces.
