Chapter 467 Discovery of New Water Sources

When the landlord walked in, he saw Qin Xiaoxiao tapping the floor with a piece of firewood. She looked angry as if she was owed millions and went bankrupt.

He was afraid that her anger would affect him, so he didn't dare to disturb her, so he walked in quietly and took a sip of water at the table.

After several people living by the river died, everyone felt that the water was particularly unpleasant to drink.

The landlord was no exception. He closed the cup and felt the smell of rust in his mouth. He wanted to vomit but couldn't. He felt very uncomfortable all over.

"Bad guy, bad guy, big bad guy, you won't take me with you, I hate you so much!" Qin Xiaoxiao muttered.

The landlord swallowed, but the rusty smell was not removed. He thought that he was old and it would not matter if he died, so he felt relieved. Out of concern for the tenants, he had to walk over and asked carefully, "Miss Qin."

,What's wrong with you?"

"Ah, uncle, why are you walking like a ghost without making any sound?" Qin Xiaoxiao was so frightened that she threw away the firewood and patted her heart to calm herself down.

"I made a noise while walking, but you were too focused and didn't hear it." The landlord was not angry and kindly took out a handkerchief of his own, "I'll wipe your tears!":

Qin Xiaoxiao glanced at the handkerchief. It was black and yellow, and she couldn't do it at all. Then she shook her head, wiped away her tears with her sleeves, and glanced at the gray-faced landlord, "What are you doing?"

"Help the ironworks transport the stone chips to the mountains for landfill." The landlord wisely put the handkerchief away and looked at her in embarrassment. He had to look up at the sky to divert his attention and said with emotion, "Wait until we recover here.

Once everything returns to normal, my children can come back."

After the children left here, the house was quiet, which they were not used to.

"As long as you have the consciousness and are willing to take out the garbage." Qin Xiaoxiao tried to be more optimistic. "In the past two days, after clearing away some garbage, the smell of rust is not that strong. To be honest, the smell is really unpleasant.

smell."

"Yes, after the common people experienced this serious illness, their desire to make money is no longer so strong. Instead, they pay more attention to their health and actively remove garbage." The landlord glanced at the open door and said, "Welcome the Spring Festival.

Has the girl not woken up yet?"

They were grateful to Leng Yingchun from the bottom of their hearts and always mentioned her intentionally or unintentionally.

"I woke up and I don't know where I went." Qin Xiaoxiao was very sad, "I am really too incompetent. She won't tell me where she wants to go."

"How could it be?" The landlord finally understood Qin Xiaoxiao's sadness and enlightened her with his own experience, "I can see that Miss Yingchun treats you completely as a relative. She sticks to you in everything. You have such a good sister.

, you should be happy."

"I can't see why she is nervous about me." Qin Xiaoxiao muttered, "I hope she can tell me everything."

"There are some things that are not so good if you know about them. Just like the people from the White Tiger Kingdom who were arrested last night, they could easily solve it. If you followed, you might have affected them." The landlord saw it clearly.

"I am very knowledgeable about right and wrong. I will just stay quietly and won't cause any trouble to them." Qin Xiaoxiao was angry. How could she be so domineering?

"Miss Qin, this weight has its uses as a weight, and the sickle also has its irreplaceable uses. The two cannot be confused. I know you are quite capable, but Miss Yingchun has a heavy responsibility and takes most of the difficulties on herself. She

It's much harder than you." Dundun, the landlord, taught me.

"That doesn't show how good she is to me." Qin Xiaoxiao responded angrily, regretting it in her heart.

"This is your fault. She will definitely be depressed sometimes, but she digests it by herself and leaves the easy and easy way of life in your hands. If you are not the closest person, who is willing to spend this time?"

The landlord was a little disappointed with Qin Xiaoxiao's ignorance.

Qin Xiaoxiao thought for a while, Leng Yingchun had indeed made her life very comfortable for so many years, and she couldn't help but blush, "Yingchun is really good, but I still think low of her, am I very bad?"

"It's good if we understand each other." The landlord put aside his prejudiced thoughts against Qin Xiaoxiao and nodded with satisfaction, "If we understand each other, life will go smoothly."

"Uncle, you are really good at analyzing problems.

Our conflict was resolved in one fell swoop.”

Qin Xiaoxiao admired the landlord's wisdom as a commoner, but felt that her life was such a failure that she was not even as good as ordinary people.

"Haha, I walk on more bridges than you walk, it's just a habit!" the landlord smiled sheepishly.

The landlord's wife walked in from outside, saw the landlord approaching Qin Xiaoxiao, touched her old yellow face, and shouted angrily.

"You old man, why do you like preaching to others so much? Stop waiting around and go to work quickly. Wash the water tank and fetch water by the way. The adults said you are not allowed to drink water from the river during this period.

It's poisonous. Every family will send strong men to fetch water from other places, and the government will dig up mountains to divert water."

Of course the landlord knew that his wife was jealous, so he sighed and went back to work with his hoe.

"If you don't listen to me, why are you carrying a hoe? You have to carry a bucket!" The landlord's wife yelled from behind. The landlord was no longer around, so she had to stamp her feet, "I have no status in the family.

?"

"You have a temper at home!" Qin Xiaoxiao met the landlord's wife's sharp gaze and smiled softly, which made her jump in anger. She snorted a few times and went back to the room.

"Stingy, I'm so mad at you." Qin Xiaoxiao waved her hand and ran out, planning to help.

When he went out, he bumped into Leng Yingchun who was coming in. He quickly picked her up and said, "What are you doing? You almost scared me to death."

"We heard someone shouting for help from behind, so we ran out of the window to take a look. It was a person who was hit on the foot by a stone and was slightly injured." Leng Yingchun said calmly, feeling the pain coming from Qin Xiaoxiao.

She was so scared that she patted her back and said, "Don't worry about us."

"You are always like this, carrying everything silently and never taking me seriously." Qin Xiaoxiao gently hit Leng Yingchun on the shoulder.

"I was so wronged. Why didn't I take you seriously?" Leng Yingchun asked softly, enduring the discomfort.

Qin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said shyly like a little daughter-in-law, "You don't tell me anything now, just tell Brother Huan. I feel bad."

Leng Yingchun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she still had to consider Qin Xiaoxiao's feelings, holding her hand and sitting down.

"Okay Xiaoxiao, we have never done anything away from you. We really don't want you to take risks. We still have to take care of you, so there will be emotional ups and downs. Those masters will immediately find the flaw, and then target you.

We are at a great disadvantage."

"Is it too late for me to start practicing martial arts now?" Qin Xiaoxiao asked with her lips pursed.

"There's enough time. You already have some martial arts skills. With some training, you'll be able to stand on your own."

Leng Yingchun nodded, but in his heart he disapproved of her practicing martial arts well, which meant that the responsibilities on her shoulders were even heavier.

"Okay, you have to supervise my martial arts training." Qin Xiaoxiao stood up, "Do you have any plans now?"

"Brother Huan is sitting in the yamen. I'm going to inspect the water source to see which source is better." Leng Yingchun made arrangements.

"I'll go with you!" Qin Xiaoxiao's life and death depended on it.

Leng Yingchun took Qin Xiaoxiao's feelings into consideration and took her hand out.

Along the way, I met people who had been detoxified by Leng Yingchun. They all greeted her and shouted loudly, "Good morning, Princess Mandao!"

"Good morning, the title of princess is false. Just call me Yingchun!" Leng Yingchun responded politely. Putting aside the title, he could be more closely associated with the common people and would be better at commanding.

"We don't dare to call you by your name." The common people cannot be friendly to Leng Yingchun.

"It's okay. After I left the capital, I was born as a peasant girl, so I have nothing to do with you." Leng Yingchun lowered her profile and blended in with the common people.

"Oh, since the rice is full, no, Miss Yingchun said, then we are in the same camp." Mr. Li ran away from the crowd and complimented Leng Yingchun flatteringly, "I don't know about the river we found in front.

If there is venom, please go and have a look!"

"Let's go!" Leng Yingchun looked happy and followed Mr. Li to the water plant quagmire on the mountainside.

The Yamen plowed open the water weeds,

Ahead is a small river with no end in sight.

Going forward, you will reach the foot of the mountain where stones are piled. Water emerges from the stones, forming a pool.

The water in the pool is crystal clear, with small shrimps and fish swimming freely among the water plants.

Mr. Li pointed to the clerk beside him, "Take a sip and tell me the taste of the water."

"Sir, I have an old man above me and a young man below me, so I can't die!" The official did not dare to go, for fear of being poisoned.

"I've been drinking water from that poisonous river before, and I didn't see you say anything." Mr. Li became a little irritated, "Drink it quickly!"

Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to see Mr. Li not taking the Yamen's life seriously, so he pushed them away, "Okay, I'll do it!"

Before they could react, Qin Xiaoxiao lay down and drank the water from the pool.

The sweet and dry taste of the pool water made her eyes light up. She took a few more sips and gave a thumbs up, "Delicious!"

Leng Yingchun also came to the room and took a few sips. She couldn't feel the slightest trace of rust and judged it to be mountain spring water. "That's it!"

"The water source has been solved, and our Sucheng can be saved." Mr. Li flattered him, took the water and patted his face, but it was a little warm and he didn't feel cold at all.

"With so little water, how can we meet the normal needs of the people in Sucheng?" Someone lamented, "There is not enough water, so we have to fight for water."

"You can look for other sources. It's almost Chinese New Year. Miss Yingchun can't leave. She can judge the water source for us right here." Mr. Li stood up and made arrangements for Leng Yingchun, "We should put the flowers

The hydrangea is ready, let the two girls feel our style."

"Hydrangea?" Qin Xiaoxiao became excited, "Is someone going to throw the hydrangea to choose a husband?"

"Haha..." the villagers laughed.

"What are you laughing at? I've only heard of throwing hydrangeas, not flowering hydrangeas." Qin Xiaoxiao turned into a curious baby.

"Hydrangea is a flower shape made of burn-resistant satin. Multiple candles are placed inside to illuminate the flower shape. It looks like a hydrangea. Men, women and children carry it on the street to compare whose flowers it is.

Hydrangeas are beautiful." Mr. Li explained.

"It's just lanterns!" Qin Xiaoxiao pretended to have seen the world, stood on a stone and told them about the various lanterns seen in the capital, diverting everyone's attention.

"It's different!" Mr. Li retorted, "Miss Qin, the lanterns in Beijing are indeed gorgeous, but the hydrangeas in Sucheng are even more wonderful. Hey, I can't tell you now, but you will know then."

"Okay, I must see your stuff." Qin Xiaoxiao jumped down, turned around and saw Leng Yingchun pulling weeds, and asked with some confusion, "What are you doing?"
