Jin Hyun Chronicle

Zheng Qi secretly thought that it was not good, it must have been raining too much, the water poured in, and the river outside the house should also be overflowing at this time, otherwise the rain would not be able to flow into the house.

"Yuanbao, this is..." Yunxian had never seen such a situation before, and subconsciously covered his abdomen.

Zheng Qi didn't have time to think about it, he hugged Yunxian out of the bedroom, the whole room was only higher than the Eight Immortals table, he put her on it lightly, and found a blanket to wrap her body.

At the same time, there was a loud knock on the door of the house, and He Xiang rushed in, her hair disheveled, her expression frightened, "Godmother, let's run away quickly! I'm afraid we won't be able to escape if we delay!"

Yun Yin looked at Zheng Qi, not knowing what to do, He Xiang had gone through the flood after all.

"Why run away? It's raining so much." Zheng Qi looked out the window, it was so dark that he couldn't hear anything except the sound of rain, so he told He Xiang: "You stay here with your godmother, I'll go outside to see .” Saying that, he put on his coir raincoat and left.

"Zheng Qi." Yunxian was frightened by him, and he yelled but didn't stop him, and wanted to chase him out, but he looked at his protruding abdomen, and didn't dare to move, holding Hexiang's hand worried , Anxious, the sound of rain outside the window disturbed her, and her thoughts went back to that icy and snowy tree hole, that's how he went out, and when she found him, she was unconscious and injured from the cold.

After all the waiting, Zheng Qi finally came back, his whole body was drenched by the rain, he wiped his face with a towel and said, "You can't see anything outside, it's all rain, it's all down to your knees, we must not move around, Wait until dawn."

Yun Xian held his hand, touched his face again, but still suppressed the throbbing in his heart, "Go to the dormitory and change clothes first, don't get sick."

In the wind and rain, the sky finally dawned, and the rain became less and less. Yunxian slept in Zheng Qi's arms all night, with his arms tightly around his waist, with a calm smile on his sleeping face, regardless of the wind and rain, Whether it is the flood, just hold him tightly, whether it is life or death, as long as we are together.

Zheng Qi put her on the couch, covered her tightly with a thin quilt, the water on the ground receded slowly, and the yard was in a mess.

He Xiang ran over with a broom, "Godfather, I know you don't worry about going outside, I will take care of Godmother, I also cooked porridge, and I will also clean the yard."

Zheng Qi smiled, this child is so sensible, he is like a god-given baby, "Okay! Godfather will teach you how to read when he is free."

When I went out, I saw that the whole town had lost its original beauty. There were mud and sand washed by the rain everywhere, withered flowers and drooping green willows. The old man and Li are directing a team of brave men to pack sandbags by the river. It seems that the sandbags came in handy after learning the lesson from last night.

Zheng Qi stepped forward to ask and found out that there were no civilian casualties last night, and the victims in Hua Tuo Temple were also safe and sound.

Mr. Zhang shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Zheng, to tell you the truth, I have already reported the situation here to County Magistrate Tao. He clearly stated that he would allocate food and money, but there has been no movement yet."

Thinking about it, there are so many victims in Hua Tuo Temple, but they all have mouths to eat. Zheng Qi also understood the difficulties of Mr. Zhang, so he took out the medicine list and a silver ticket from his sleeve, "The Taoist priest has already After you have listed the medicinal materials you need, the money will not be enough to buy medicines, so you take it first and ask someone to buy the food as well, so we can save the emergency first."

Mr. Zhang was stunned when he saw the bank note, "What are you talking about? Our Zhang family has been doing righteousness in this town for generations. It is right to help the poor and weak. How can we use money from outsiders?"

"What about insiders and outsiders? I'm living in this town now, and I'm going to live for the rest of my life. Just take it!" Zheng Qisheng waved his hand away, fearing that he would turn him down.

Mr. Zhang sighed, silver is really a good thing, now it seems to be an urgent need, and he told his nephew: "Move out all the grain of our Zhang family, and then see how much money is left on the account, and use it to buy medicinal materials. "

A few days later, the town was reorganized and restored to its former appearance, but what followed was the influx of a large number of disaster victims. They dragged their families, supported the old and the young, and filled almost every corner of the town. a corner.

Mr. Zhang should be most worried. After asking, most of these victims came from Shou County, Xia County and Wei County under the jurisdiction of Chuzhou. Several counties in the village have become the country of Ze, coupled with the fact that the government's relief is not good, and I heard that Xiqiao Town not only has enough food, but also has people to heal the sick, so they came here one after another.

The incident was too disturbing, Mr. Zhang had already ordered the Lantai Temple and the largest theater in the town to be vacated for the disaster victims, but it was still overcrowded, and what's more, the disaster victims kept coming, and they couldn't be turned away. Outside the door, the worst thing is that there is no food, no medicine, and no money.

He had sent reports to the county several times, asking for money and food, but in the end, nothing came of it. When he saw that he couldn't hold on, the county magistrate Todd ran over in person and yelled at him.

"Okay! I don't care about the affairs here anymore. I've ruined my family and it's not a good thing. You will take care of it in the future. You also came out of this town anyway. You must not forget your roots."

Seeing that the old man was so angry, Tao De quickly persuaded him, "Uncle, I also have difficulties. The matter is not as simple as you think. I brought some money and food here today. You can deal with it first."

Mr. Zhang flicked his sleeves, "No need, I have gathered people from house to house, you don't need to be hypocritical here, even if we donate one or two, we have to make it through, and we can't let a person starve to death .”

As soon as the words were finished, Zhang Jinghua hurried in, saying that everyone was almost assembled, and asked him to speak.Mr. Zhang came to his house, and sure enough, people from every household in the town came. He said so, and he was willing to donate, so he asked his grandson to write it down one by one. Finally, he felt embarrassed when he saw Zheng Qi Reached out to him.

"Master Zheng, there is no need this time! Go back first!"

"Then how can I do it! How much do you still need, I will send it out together."

After all, there were exclamations one after another, County Magistrate Tao looked at him, and then muttered something to Mr. Zhang!This made Mr. Zhang yell, "Speak clearly if you have something to say, don't make small moves behind your back."

County Magistrate Tao couldn't do anything about it, and he was familiar with the people in this town, so he said truthfully: "It's like this, it's not that I don't want to pay for food, it's not that I don't want to help the folks, it's really Because of the boss."

Zheng Qi smiled slightly, "You are the immediate boss, aren't you Guo Tianci, the prefect of Chuzhou? Why did my wife offend his younger brother, and he used this town as a knife?"
