The princess is very versatile, leaving the prince to become the richest
Chapter 148 Working together
It turned out that his third brother was just like everyone else, holding a shovel, shoveling soil and putting it into sacks.
One was loading soil, one was earning money from pockets, and the other was transporting it towards the dam.
The sacks were carried to the embankment, where there were people to catch them.
They placed the sacks of soil one by one to reinforce the embankment.
The three of them formed an assembly line, and despite the heavy rain, Xiao Jingyi found that they were working very hard.
This is certainly exciting. Others may not understand it, but they know it.
Although the current tasks are difficult, every time they think of their homes, parents, wives and children behind them.
They worked even harder because once the flood broke through the dam, they would lose their homes.
Therefore, none of them complained, and no one said they were tired.
Xiao Jingyi was deeply moved and walked into the sight of Xiao Jingyu and the others.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Jingyu would have been alert at the slightest movement.
But today, Xiao Jingyu didn't notice until the person came right in front of him.
Only after Xiao Jingyi called out "Third Brother" did Xiao Jingyu stop what he was doing.
When he looked up, it turned out to be Xiao Jingyi.
He was a little happy.
The two brothers have just met, so they must have something to talk about.
So, Xiao Jingyi called someone to take Xiao Jingyu's place.
The other people brought by Xiao Jingyi were also moved by everyone's actions.
Without Xiao Jingyi's arrangement, they all found work for themselves.
If they saw any of their brothers were about to collapse from exhaustion, they would replace them.
However, they also forgot that they had run day and night for three days to get here, and they had not even had a rest since they arrived.
At this moment, everyone's hearts seemed to be twisted together by a hemp rope.
Everyone's efforts are directed towards one thing.
Unity is strength.
After Xiao Jingyu put down the work in his hands, he and Xiao Jingyi came to the side.
Xiao Jingyi looked at his third brother who was covered in mud, his eyes filled with tears.
You know, his third brother is usually the one who loves cleanliness the most, but I didn't expect that he doesn't care about these things now.
They were wearing hats, and with the heavy rain, Xiao Jingyu did not see the tears sliding down from Xiao Jingyi's eyes.
However, this drop of rain mixed with tears is heavier than ordinary raindrops when it falls on the ground.
"Third brother, come here, here's your handkerchief, wipe your face and hands quickly."
Xiao Jingyi took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Xiao Jingyu with great distress.
However, Xiao Jingyu refused without even thinking about it.
"No, it's raining so hard, it will be washed away in no time."
Seeing this, Xiao Jingyi had no choice but to take it back.
Before Xiao Jingyi could speak, Xiao Jingyu asked him.
"How did you come?
This flood is no joke. What are you doing here as a child?
Do your father and your mother know about this?"
Speaking of Xiao Jingyi leaving the palace to come to Jiangnan, Empress Zheng Wen only heard about it after he left the palace.
The Queen Mother was terrified at the time. After she found out, she wanted to take Xiao Jingyi back.
But she found out too late. By then, Xiao Jingyi had already left the palace and left the city.
More importantly, her son had the support of the emperor, which made things even more difficult for her.
She had no other choice but to disregard etiquette and go back to the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
She questioned her father and her brother, complaining why they didn't stop Xiao Jingyi.
The son is disobedient and the mother is unreasonable.
This made Zheng Heng, who was already holding his anger, even more angry, in front of their father.
Zheng Heng told his sister the whole story.
When the queen knew the truth, she wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
In fact, what Xiao Jingyu said was out of concern for Xiao Jingyi's safety.
Although his mother was annoying, he had to admit that he still cared about his younger brother Xiao Jingyi.
However, Xiao Jingyu, who had never been cared for by anyone since childhood, didn't know how to express it.
To the extent that what he said made people who heard it feel very uncomfortable.
It's like someone is putting his warm face against his cold butt.
Fortunately, he was facing Xiao Jingyi, his fifth brother who had a simple mind.
"Third brother, I am not a child anymore.
Speaking of which, I have already entered the court as an official.
Although I am not a high-ranking official, I have worked diligently in the past few years.
Except for the mistake at the beginning, I didn't make any mistakes afterwards.
Moreover, this time it was my father who approved my coming.
Don't pay attention to what your mother says.
She is always like this. She won’t let me do this or that. I am almost suffocated by her.
I am a human being, not her pet."
Xiao Jingyu was relieved when he heard that the emperor agreed to let him come.
He was afraid that his reckless brother might do something.
"Did your father give you any instructions for coming here this time?"
When he saw Xiao Jingyu, he was so happy that he almost forgot the purpose of his coming here.
"Oh, Third Brother, my father has an imperial edict for me to give to you.
Also, my father said that Master Wang calculated that there will be a flood in the south of the Yangtze River this time.
Since I’m young and can run fast, let me be the first to report the news.
However, it's the same whether I reported the news or not.
When I arrived just now, I went to the city first and found that most people had already left.
Third brother, you are so foresighted! "
After Xiao Jingyi finished speaking, he gave his third brother a thumbs up.
However, he only saw Xiao Jingyu shaking his head at him.
“It’s not me, it’s Jiang Qingyu.
It was she who reminded me, and then I realized something was wrong and organized everyone to evacuate."
When Xiao Jingyi heard that it was actually related to Jiang Qingyu, he felt unbelievable.
And doesn’t his third brother hate Jiang Qingyu the most and want to divorce her?
How come? From what his third brother said, the two of them are getting along very well?
She actually made his third brother listen to her. After not seeing her for a few years, Jiang Qingyu has become even more powerful.
"Third brother, do you know who is the pioneer in charge of disaster relief this time?"
"who is it?"
Xiao Jingyi knew that his third brother was not a person who liked to guess, so when Xiao Jingyu asked, he just told him.
“It’s Jiang Sheng!
Your father-in-law!"
When he heard it was Jiang Sheng, Xiao Jingyu frowned.
"It's him?
Is there no one left in the court?"
Only Xiao Jingyu dared to say this.
“Alas, Third Brother, you don’t know that when others heard that a flood was going to happen, they were so scared that they all hid away.
Only Jiang Sheng, who was as stubborn as a turtle eating a weight, was determined to come.
Considering his physical condition, my father asked me to deliver the letter first."
After listening to this, Xiao Jingyu nodded.
Jiang Sheng's behavior was really beyond his expectations.
Did he come here because of Jiang Qingyu?
If this is true, he is still a good father who can risk his own life for his daughter.
