The banks of the Weihe River are crowded and crowded.

    I almost came out of the city, rushing in early in the morning, just to occupy a good position.

    Everyone excitedly pointed to the huge keel frame erected by the Weihe River and talked a lot, "Is it this one? It looks very solid."

    "Sturdy is sturdy, but can it really carry the water of the Wei River? Those long wooden troughs don't feel very useful."

    Many people came to take a seat early in the night, and they all looked forward to it.

      .

    I get excited just thinking about it.

    "God, bless everything goes well, the waterwheel can be successfully tested."

    "Miss Mu, you must be more aggressive and don't let us down."

    And the small landlords gathered together to gossip, "I heard that this project is presided over by a little girl who is not enough to get married. We have so many capable officials and skilled craftsmen in Liangcheng, is it not as good as her? ?"

    "I also don't think it's reliable. I don't know who is holding her behind her back, so I'm not afraid of the pot? I don't know what to think."

    "The big words have been released. If you can't do it, it will be a big joke."

    These people don't know whether they are looking forward to Mu Wanqing's success or her failure.

    Success, Mu Wanqing's reputation will be very high, they can't move her, but Mu Wanqing's previously proposed Sanchengtian rent caused them huge losses, and this breath was uncomfortable.

    Failure, the waterwheel is also a good thing for them.

    "I don't understand why the government spends so much manpower and material resources to hold a girl to the top."

    "I heard that there are unspeakable nobles behind."

     

    "Who do you say is the most powerful person in our Liangcheng?"

    "Ah, Du Shuai? Impossible, you are insulting Du Shuai! He is not a foolish person, and he is not allowed to talk nonsense."

    "It's not him, guess."

    "Down? That's the little general... not so much."

    "Why not? The little general is young and energetic, and he is full of vigor. It's okay to want to make a girl happy. Others are playing with actors, and he uses this to coax the little girl to play.

    It sounds fine, but it sounds weird.

    On the other side, there are several high-footed pergola, which can clearly see the waterwheel on the opposite side.

    In one of the pergola, a man stared at the waterwheel with a serious look for a long time, "Draw it all down."

    The people around him hesitated for a while, "I don't know if it will work, is it too early to paint now?"

    The man tapped the table with a thoughtful expression, "Be prepared, and be one step ahead of everything, so as not to be passive."

    "Yes."

    The sound of footsteps sounded, and a man in gray walked in and said respectfully, "Master Jin, I have let people let out the wind and lead the matter to the head of the little general."

    The man nodded slightly, "The finishing work must be done flawlessly, so that no one can find us."

    "Yes."

    The man's eyes fell on the waterwheel again, and he chuckled, "I want to see what kind of answer Mu Wanqing can hand over."

     

    This is a big gamble, betting on the future of the Mu family.

    The courage is not ordinary, Mu Wanqing, this woman should not be underestimated.

    Other side, colorful pergola

    Mrs. Du was dressed in plain casual clothes and did not apply any grease, but she could hardly hide her outstanding demeanor.

    Two maids fanned her with fans, and the iceberg in the corner brought a hint of coolness.

    Many members of the Du family came, and the female relatives all traveled with Mrs. Du.

    The two daughters of the Du family accompany their mother, talking and laughing.

    Suddenly, a voice sounded, "Mother-in-law, why do you have to come out on such a hot day? It's too uncomfortable with so many people crowded together."

    It is the second son-in-law, Zhao Yifan. He wears a moon-white scholar's robe and looks like a scholar with a white face.

    A pale face, but an impatient expression destroyed the literati temperament.

     

    Mrs. Du didn't plan to bring him at first, it was her second daughter who insisted her husband accompany her.

    She didn't lift her eyelids, "You are more expensive than us, so go back."

    Zhao Yifan is not someone who can wink, and Miss Du poked him lightly, and he realized that his mother-in-law was not happy.

    Really, what did he say wrong? Cozy at home on a hot day, isn't it?

    Women like to find fault for themselves.

     "Mother-in-law, I don't mean that, I just think that you have a noble status, and there is no need to join in the fun. This is destined to be a grandstanding farce."

    Mrs. Du lowered her eyes and played with the jade pendant around her waist.

    She is here to cheer for her son, and this battle involves her son, how can she just sit back and ignore it?

    Only this idiot didn't realize this, chattering, being stupid, and ignoring it.

    Miss Du brought tea and held it to Mrs. Du with her smiling hands, "Mother, drink herbal tea, this tea can help you to meditate."

    She also poured a cup for Zhao Yifan, "Husband, drink it too, your heart will be calm and naturally cool."

    Miss Du shook her head slightly and made this move again.

    Zhao Yifan poured a big bowl, and the whole person felt more comfortable, "Mu Wanqing, that little **** knows how to be in the limelight. The hostess of Xiliang should play an exemplary role, treat her severely, kill the chickens and show the monkeys, and let the women of Xiliang know what three obedience and four virtues are."

    His provocation was so straightforward, he made no secret of his thoughts.

     

    All of this was done by Mu Wanqing, and he would never let her go.

    The female relatives in the audience frowned in unison.

    The customs of the border are open, women can go out freely, and widows are also allowed to remarry.

    After all, there will be wars at the border at any time, and men will die in battle, so they can only rely on women to support a family. How can a woman with three obedience and four virtues live without a husband?

    Mrs. Du was a little annoyed at him, "You're a man who is unruly in the crowd of women, hurry out."

    Zhao Yifan was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was the only man in the entire pergola, and the others were all female relatives.

    Hey, what about other men?

    "Where's my brother-in-law?"

    Miss Du raised her eyebrows proudly, "Of course he is performing official duties on the spot."

    Zhao Yifan's face fell, is this mocking him for not being as good as his eldest brother-in-law?

    Miss Du looked at his dark face lazily, she couldn't communicate with him at all, often talking with ducks.

    Shake his face in public, who cares about him, the guy who never knows the situation.

    At the experimental site, a group of people were nervously doing the final round of commissioning.

    "Miss Mu, area 1 is fine."

    "Miss Mu, the No. 2 area is fine."

    …

    "Miss Mu, is there any problem in area 9?"

    Second Master Mu also replied, "Qing'er, I checked and there is no problem in every link." He was too nervous and his voice was dry.

    Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, very calm and steady, "Several adults, let's start?

    The two acquaintances both looked at Du Shaoxuan, Du Shaoxuan is the highest position in this field, he nodded slightly. "Okay, listen to you."

    A smile flashed in Mu Wanqing's eyes. He came to check the situation every day and supported Mu Wanqing, but he never intervened. He just listened to the professionals if he didn't understand.

    This makes her particularly satisfied, this is the quality a layman should have.

    She arranged a solemn ribbon-cutting ceremony with a sense of ceremony.

    The people who saw it exclaimed that it was interesting, and they were even more looking forward to it.

    "Start." Mu Wanqing waved the colorful flag, her eyebrows were confident and firm, and her eyes were bright.

    Du Shaoxuan looked at her madly, her commander's appearance was so beautiful, like a luminous body that firmly attracted his attention.

    A heart is accelerating inexplicably, what's wrong?

    Mu Wanqing gave an order, pressed a switch, and the waterwheel slowly started. I saw that driven by the current, the huge water bucket slid to the river surface, scooped up the river, and gradually rose to the At a certain height, the bucket is turned over, and all the river water is poured into the wooden trough. Note (1)

    The water channels are crisscrossed, and the water volume is controlled by the valve, and different water volumes are introduced into the fields according to different needs.

    Under the gaze of the whole city, a large area of ​​dry fields was irrigated.

    The water canals continue to send water to the farther fields, and the waterwheels are tirelessly introduced into the rivers, endlessly.

    Everyone looked at the huge waterwheel in fascination, and couldn't bear to blink.

    Is this a miracle? God bless Daqi, God bless Xiliang!

    After some time, a cheer erupted from the crowd.

    "Miss Mu Wanqing, your waterwheel has been successfully developed. You are the best. The people of Liangcheng will never forget you."

    This sound ignited the joy of the people like a spark, cheering one after another, chanting Mu Wanqing's name.

    They won't have to worry about drought in the future! She is a Bodhisattva who saves suffering!

    Mu Wanqing's name spread all over the place, gaining a lot of prestige.

    Mu Wanqing heard the first voice familiar, looked over, it was the Mu family, and couldn't help but smile.

    I also know how to build momentum, yes, there is progress.

    Du Shaoxuan looked at her happily, "Wanqing, you are really amazing, I knew you could do it."

    "I hope you like this gift." Mu Wanqing smiled brightly.

      Your Majesty, can you?"

      "What I gave to you is yours, and you can handle it as you like. If I can help more people and help this country, it's my honor."

    The righteous words she said were eloquent and graceful, which moved the surroundings in a mess.

    How can there be such a noble woman?

    Sun Tongzhi bowed deeply, "Miss Mu, please accept Sun Mou's worship, I thank you for the people of Xiliang."

    Mu Wanqing hurriedly returned her salute, "You are too polite, so can I make a request?"

    "You say it." Sun Tongzhi knew a thing or two about her character, and she would say what she wanted. If she was rejected, she would not be discouraged.

    Mu Wanqing didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "I want Fang Jinghan's one."

    Patriarch Fang, who was hidden in the corner, raised his head sharply, she actually mentioned it so directly?

    A heart pounding wildly, holding her breath nervously, can it be done?

    "Ah, this... is against the rules." Sun Tongzhi was very embarrassed. Although Mu Wanqing was outstanding in everything, she was not an official, so how could an exile be placed under her name?

    Exiles are all managed by the guards. This is a system, and there is no way to make exceptions.

    Mu Wanqing has long thought of a solution, "Then call it under the name of President Zeng, how about it?"

      "That can."

    Assigning to President Zeng Qi is equivalent to assigning it to Mu Wanqing, the same thing.

    Du Shaoxuan glanced at her, a little aggrieved for her.

    She has amazing talents, but because she is a woman, she cannot be an official, and she cannot display her talents.

    If one person wants to change hands, it cannot be directly attributed to her.

    It hurts!

    No, he can't let her suffer like this, he has to find a way!

    Ah, he thought!
