The wind started blowing on the river, and Baochai put down her reserve and fell into her arms. He said worriedly: "The rain is hitting Huangmei, and there will be no sun for forty-five days. It is the plum rainy weather. Brother Rong must always be careful when he patrols the river with the prince."

Plum rain is commonly known as "Meiyu" because it occurs during the rainy season when plums in Jiangnan are in their maturity period. It is also called "mildew rain" because the temperature rise in early summer and the humidity of rainwater cause the utensils in Jiangnan people's homes to be extremely dry.

Prone to mildew.

The plum rains in Jiangnan are divided into early and late. Early plum rains in Jiangnan are generally in April and May of the lunar calendar, while late plum rains in Jiangnan are in May and June.

It is now June, and their party came from the north, but there is no rainy season going north. The only explanation for this situation is that the plum rain season has moved back this year, and late plum rain has appeared in the Jiangnan area.

The biggest feature of this rainy season is thunderstorms and showers, and the rainfall is concentrated, which is most likely to cause floods.

It's like it was drizzling for a month, but suddenly there was strong convection, causing all the rain for a month to fall in one place in one day.

The result is simply the difference between sprinkling water and pouring water.

Brother Rong said: "Auntie, do you care about me?"

What's not caring? Why don't you show it clearly? Baochai didn't want to pay attention to this guy who was teasing her, and held on to her clothes tightly to prevent the devil's claws from probing in. "I don't want you to talk lightly. I don't want you to be frivolous about me.

"

"Habitual actions are not intentional." Brother Rong defended.

Baochai didn't believe him and taught him: "I often hear that King Zhongshun is diligent, prudent and upright, and practices everything he does. It will be dangerous for you to be a guard beside him. You must have a clear view of the situation with your left and right eyes. If you are in danger, you must act within your ability. Zhongshun

The king also trusts you and favors you. When something is doubtful or dangerous, I have to give you a few words of advice not to take risks."

How can this thing be persuaded? Jia Rong clearly understands King Zhongshun's temperament. Even if he is seriously ill, he will not forget to take care of things. If there is a flood in Jiangnan, the temperament of this thousand-year-old master will have to be on the line.

Brother Rong was thinking about these things, but he didn't want to tell them, so as not to worry everyone.

"I am most afraid of death. I dare not say anything else, but my ability to escape and save my life is extraordinary."

"Talk nonsense again." Baochai glared at him, but Brother Rong took advantage of him. He rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not teaching you to be greedy for life and afraid of death. If you run away halfway, I will look down on you.

It’s for you to assess the situation and calculate whether the time is right or not.”

Brother Rong was happy in his heart. The pair of friends reunited after a long separation were really warm and amiable. He smiled and said: "Being greedy for life and fearing death is not a bad thing. This is called cherishing life. I am going to die, so you must not faint from crying."

Xue Baochai was stunned, a blush appeared on his face, and he said angrily: "Be gentle, I won't cry. The harm you do will last for thousands of years, life is harder than a stone."

How could this girl not be too sad? After all, she is a person with a big heart, bigger than Sister Feng, Qin Keqing, and Ping'er. She is definitely a model of big ambitions.

Brother Rong knew very well that even though he was now intimate with her, he could tell that this girl had feelings for him.

But... he understood better that Baochai was someone he couldn't control. This girl hid everything, not just her emotions.

If something really happened, the one who would be most sad would definitely be Keqing, and then Sister Feng. As for Baochai, he might feel sad in his heart, but he would never let this sadness take up too much.

Brother Rong said: "If you don't say these unlucky words, I just need to stay away. There may not be any disasters during the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River."

Baochai hummed, pressed down Brother Rong's mischievous hand, and said, "If you want to give birth to a third-grade baby someday, I will take care of everything."

What does it mean?

Girl, you are kidding me. The third and fourth grades, if you look at the numbers, seem to be one step behind. In fact, there is a gap that is difficult to cross, a gap that countless people will never be able to cross.

Don't you see, there are so many fourth-rank officials in the court? The city gate captain who guards the nine gates of Shenjing is fourth-rank, all the second-class bodyguards are fourth-rank, the young ministers, assistant leaders, and dusi of each department, and the patrolmen of each province are all fourth-rank.

There are only a handful of people who can be promoted from the fourth grade to the third grade, and this requires more than just merit. For example, Duan Yu from the Zhongshun Palace, as a first-class guard, he can only advance to the third grade, which is half a grade lower than the first-class guard in the palace.

.

Baochai said: "Brother Rong, don't look at me like this. If you allow yourself to be frivolous, I have gone astray. If I really want to obey you, I have to show my sincerity. Otherwise, how can I be willing to do this?"

The nameless outhouse of a second-class guard."

What this girl said was very straightforward. Anyway, if you only rely on the virtues of your ancestors, you won't be able to make a name for yourself. She will never be willing to do so.

What kind of words does this sound like!

Friendship is treated as a business by her, so it really should be beaten!

A muffled sound came from the ship's armor.

Baochai quickly covered her back, blushing and trying to hide.

Brother Rong refused to let her go. He abandoned his old sweethearts in the north and went to the south to show off his power empty-handed.

Snap...

"Don't hit me." Baochai felt pain, became more numb, and her heart felt warm. She buried her head in Brother Rong's arms and said quickly: "Don't hit me. I recognize you."

"Admit it?"

"Admit it!" Baochai didn't dare to raise her head, grabbing Brother Rong's clothes with both hands. This bad guy just showed him the slightest intention today, and yet he was so bold that he was looking for an advantage. Now he's threatening her, Baochai

I really feel like crying without tears.

She said aggrievedly: "I'm just afraid that you will be obsessed with green leaves and flowers, and imitate the masters of the Jia family who only know how to have fun, but don't do anything serious. What girl doesn't long for a bright career, so she thinks about it?"

I want to motivate you to make progress. I didn’t expect you to be such an unruly person and treat me like this."

"It hurts, I'll rub it for you!" Brother Rong comforted shamelessly, "When I was in heaven, many people praised my holy hands, and there are eighteen ways to make you forget the pain just now."

Xue Baochai's face became even more embarrassed, and she was about to refuse when her whole body felt soft, when she felt her body being hugged tightly, and a big mouth blocked everything she wanted to say.

She is not completely devoted to Brother Rong. Although she often dreams about it at night, she actually doesn’t have much contact with him in life. Mainly her several boundary-breaking behaviors left a deep impression on Baochai, like

It's engraved in my mind.

Most women who experience such a thing will be in two states. Either they feel anxious for a period of time; or they are like Baochai, who inexplicably falls in love with the other person.

Can Baochai hate Jia Rong?

Obviously she couldn't hate him. She was the one who made the initial ridiculous request, so she had no right to hate him.

Ouch a few times.

Smelling the masculine scent coming from him, Baochai felt weak all over and her breath was wheezing. Her delicate body was trembling slightly and her eyes were full of emotion. What happened last night, she only remembered that her mouth seemed to be numbed by peppercorns. Today

The children spoke their minds to each other, and their experiences afterward were even more different.

As the saying goes, when you first fall in love, no matter how sane you are, you will get lost and only remember the goodness of the other person. Baochai was so shy that she didn’t dare to compete with her, but there was expectation in her thoughts. Now she leaned shyly in his arms, motionless.

Not moving either.

The moon is in the river, the sky is bright, and the lantern illuminates the shadows of the two people.

Baochai is really charming when she doesn't need to persuade others, and she looks the most beautiful when she is quiet. Brother Rong felt like he was holding her in his arms like a very soft doll, as if Baochai didn't have a bone in his body.

"Oh"

Xue Baochai called out softly and quickly pushed Brother Rong away. It turned out to be Jia Rong's fiery and mischievous hand, which suddenly destroyed the peaceful and beautiful atmosphere. After all, she is a lady, although she is different from ordinary women in the boudoir, but

I won’t let Brother Rong be as unbridled as he wants.

Even if she recognized Jia Rong's love in her heart, this was her last line. Being touched by Brother Rong's hand made her whole body numb. She finally escaped from the clutches, how could she let him slip in again?

, naturally he refused to agree to it.

"Don't continue to cause mischief. I am not Sister Feng. I won't do anything to you." Baochai said seriously.

Brother Rong smiled, it was a pity that the old friends were forced to separate after just saying hello. Brother Rong thought shamelessly, it was definitely not that he had evil thoughts, he just wanted to carefully study why Baochai was better than Sister Feng.

, but they are all soft.

Since she refused, Brother Rong felt regretful in his heart. He just had to put his arms around his waist and talk to each other about trivial matters.

Brother Rong, who had followed the rules, made Baochai very curious. After a while, he felt that something was wrong, then he blushed and smiled secretly. "It's already late, let's go back to the cabin."

"Forehead?"

Return to cabin?

Uncle Rong was overjoyed and said: "It's late at night and the moon is cold, it's time to go back."

Xue Baochai scolded, knowing that Brother Rong had misunderstood. He said, "I won't take up too much of your time. Although I'm not afraid of Sister Feng getting suspicious, after all, she has no status. But no matter what happens next, I can't waste time tonight.

Lest she hate me in her heart."

It turns out that I was sent to Wang Xifeng. Brother Rong chuckled and said, "It's still early."

Xue Baochai broke away resolutely and said: "You should be quieter tonight."

…………

The Thirteenth Master looked at this magnificent embankment with a very complicated mood. He looked at Brother Rong and said, "You have been pretending to be mute for so many days, and you have nothing to say?"

Brother Rong looked around and saw that the two governors of the canal transport and river were not far away. He said seriously: "I am the bodyguard of the Thirteenth Master. It is my job to protect the Thirteenth Master."

The Thirteenth Master said: "That's right. Whether it's dredging the river or strengthening the dam. For a bastard like you, it's a sure-fire business. Are you trying to avoid suspicion in front of me?"

Jia Rong was unhappy with what he said.

It is true that cement will be used to dredge the river. To strengthen the embankment of Hongze Lake, the best way is to add soil and stone, but cement may not be effective. However, blindly reinforcing the embankment of Hongze Lake is not the answer after all.

Now there is a crisis. If the water in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is strong, the river water will be poured back into Hongze Lake. As a result, the lake water will rise, threatening a large area east of the Hongze Lake embankment at any time.

Brother Rong smiled and said: "Young man is not a businessman, so how can he always calculate profits and losses? It's just that many officials in the Water Conservancy Camp, the River Governor's Office, and the Governor's Water Transport Department have not calculated things well. How can I dare to talk nonsense?"

The two governors glanced at Jia Rong next to the Thirteenth Master. Seeing that even one of his guards dared to talk to the prince like this, they thought he was a close relative of the prince's family. As they hold important positions, they are naturally shrewd people. Looking at Jia Rong again

Rong Shi also looked a little more polite on his face.
