Being a Lady of an Influential Family: 492, the rainstorm strikes!
At the end of June, the weather in Yongcheng is still hot.
After a sudden night of torrential rain, the temperature seems to have dropped a bit but it is still sultry. Leng Sa sat in front of the study window and looked at the rain curtains under the eaves outside. The mist brought by the strong wind fell on his face, making people feel a little sober.
It has been raining heavily for a day and a night, and it has no intention of stopping. On the couch in the center of the room behind her, Xiao Shishi really babbled to himself.
Shuilian sat next to the little guy who was enjoying himself, and then looked at Leng Sa who was sitting at the window and said with concern, "Young lady, don't get caught in the rain."
This wind and rain are a bit evil. The heavy rain is raging with the strong wind, and the walls of the corridor under the eaves outside are wet, and the young lady will be sprayed with water mist while sitting by the window.
Leng Sa turned around and pulled down the bead curtain of the window, smiling, "It's still raining heavily, it seems that you won't be able to go back today."
Shuilian didn't care and smiled, "I can't go out to work for the past two days anyway. I'll just stay here to eat and drink without going anywhere, and I can still see the young master." She went out at noon yesterday Before the rain, I came to report to the young lady. I thought that the summer rain would come and go quickly, and it would be over in a while. Who knew that it would get worse and worse and finally had to stay at Fu's house for one night.
Shuilian looked at Leng Sa, "What is the young lady worried about?"
Leng Sa sighed lightly, stood up and walked towards the center of the room, "I don't know what's going on in Jiazhou." I don't know if it's the sultry weather or something else, always Makes her feel a little restless.
Shui Lian breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out that the young lady is worried about the young master."
Leng Sa smiled and didn't say much, sat down and clapped his hands at Xiao Shi Shi.
Small Stone was immediately attracted to his mother, ahhh, and stretched out his little hand towards Leng Sa.
Leng Sa smiled and picked him up. The weather was so hot that even children couldn't stand it, so they could only wear thin little clothes, and all their white and tender limbs were exposed.
As soon as I hold it in my hand, the baby's soft touch makes people involuntarily relax, as if they are afraid that a little bit of strength will hurt him.
"Ah, ah, ah." Little Stone shouted happily to his mother.
Leng Sa chuckled and said, "Call mom."
"Yah." Leng Sa pinched his little face helplessly, when there was a sudden flash of light outside, Leng Sa immediately reached out and covered the little guy's ears.
The next moment, there was a rumble of thunder in the sky, and Xiao Shi's courage was not small at all. He slept very peacefully last night with lightning and thunder, and he was not scared to cry even when he was awake. when.
It took a while before the rumble of thunder left.
Shui Lian's face turned pale and she said, "Young master is so calm at such a young age, I am frightened by lightning and thunder every time."
Leng Sa said with a smile, "He's still young, so he doesn't know what it means to be afraid." But he was indeed quite stable.
"Young Madam, the Overseer is here." Yuan Ying came over from the door and reported.
Leng Sa was a little surprised, "What is the Overseer doing at this time?" He quickly got up with a small stone and said to the outside, "Please go to the next study, Overseer."
Fu Fengcheng's study is separated from this side by a wall, and Leng Sa directly carried the child and passed through the connecting doorway. Shui Lian was also worried that she had overheard what secrets the governor and the young lady were discussing, so she went out to find Lan Jing and Yuan Ying to play with.
The rain was so heavy that I couldn't hold my umbrella. Dujun Fu came here in a raincoat.
Standing Man Mouth took off his raincoat and wiped off the water stains on his body before entering the study.
“Why did the Overseer come here at this time? If there is something, let someone come over and tell me.” Leng Sa said.
Dujun Fu waved his hand, and when he saw Xiao Shi, who was awake in Leng Sa's arms, his originally tense face also eased a little, and he reached out to hug Xiao Shi.
Leng Sa did not refuse and handed it to him directly. Although Dujun Fu looked like a rough man, he was very skilled in holding children. He didn't seem uncomfortable when he was holding Xiao Shishi, and he happily patted Du Jun Fu's face with his little hand.
Deu Jun Fu was not angry either, he just said with a smile, "This kid has a lot more strength."
Leng Sa said with a smile, "No, sometimes it's hard to break free from his grasp." It will be strange if you don't blush in a few months.
The two of them were seated, Leng Sa poured a cup of tea for Governor Fu and let it go before asking, "What is the matter with Governor Fu coming here?" Although Governor Fu is indeed a grandson, Leng Sa believes that he is not As for coming here in such a heavy rain just to hug my grandson.
Dujun Fu immediately remembered the purpose of his visit, and said with a solemn expression, "It's something."
Leng Sa had a feeling that what Governor Fu was going to say would not be very good, and said solemnly, "Yes... What happened to the young master?"
Dujun Fu said in a deep voice, "I also just got the news that the rain in Jiazhou was earlier than ours, causing the Qishui in Jiazhou to skyrocket and divert its course. Yesterday, the upstream of Qishui burst and directly flooded the city of Pine."
Leng Sa's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and the water in the teacup splashed onto the table.
After a moment of silence, Leng Sa put the teacup back on the table, "Then... what happened to Fu Fengcheng and the others?"
Fu Dujun shook his head and said, "I don't know, Zhang Tong has received news that communication with the boss and the others has been cut off. Now he is sending someone to Songcheng to check the situation."
Leng Sa said, "Dad, I'm going to Jiazhou."
"Nonsense!" Dujun Fu said solemnly, "I'm here to tell you about this, just to let you know in advance, so as not to panic when you suddenly find out about the situation. This news will not be announced to the public for the time being, and neither will you. Don't tell anyone."
Leng Sa frowned, "What about Fu Fengcheng?"
Deu Jun Fu looked at her and said, "You don't believe him? I believe my son, unless he really points...or he won't let himself be in trouble. All we have to do is to stabilize the six southern provinces, As long as the six southern provinces are fine, Jiazhou will be easy to deal with no matter what happens. Do you understand?"
Leng Sa was silent.
Fu Dujun sighed softly, patted the little stone in his arms who was looking at him with wide eyes and said softly, "Even if you don't think about yourself, think about the little stone. No matter what the situation is, it must be a mess. You haven't seen what it looks like when a catastrophe really occurs, you don't understand the situation, and you rush over if something happens, what will Xiao Shi do?"
Leng Sa looked up at Du Jun Fu and said, "But Dad, you originally wanted to send someone to Jiazhou to help, right?"
Fu Dujun said, "I sent someone to guard against that shameless Ren Nanyan, that old man will not care about flooding or not when his death is approaching, and there is no guarantee that he will not take advantage of the fire! Will you fight?"
Leng Sa is silent, she won't.
Fu Dujun said, "Stay at ease, I can't get in touch with the boss at the moment, mostly because the communicator is broken. Those new things are not reliable, they can't be broken if they don't fall, they can't get wet, they can't get hot, they can't get cold. When things are repaired, he will naturally contact the family."
Leng Sa nodded and said, "I see, Dad, don't worry."
Only Governor Fu was satisfied and nodded, "That's it, no matter what messy news is spread outside, as long as it's not confirmed by us, you can treat him as nonsense, and at this time you have to be steady."
Leng Sa nodded again, and then Dujun Fu returned the small stone to her, got up and hurried away.
Evidently, even in the pouring rain, Commander Fu was still very busy. If he wasn't worried that Leng Sa was too young and suddenly heard the news, he would be in a mess, he probably wouldn't have come in person.
Watching Dujun Fu's figure quickly disappearing outside the door, Leng Sa hugged the small stone in his arms and pressed his face gently against his smooth little face, "Don't be afraid, it's alright."
"Ahhh." Little Stone cried, clutching one of her fingers.
Leng Sa smiled and said, "You also think Dad will be fine, right?"
"Ah."
"Well, I knew that Xiao Shi and his mother had a good heart. How could a little thing be difficult to live with our Shi Shi father?"
The heavy rain in Yongcheng finally stopped that night. Although it only rained for more than a day, the total rainfall has exceeded the sum of the past few months. Even the Overseer's Mansion itself has an excellent drainage system, and the rainwater that accumulates for a while can not be drained cleanly. The servants reported that many houses were directly flooded with water, not to mention that the Fu family was outside.
What worries Leng Sa even more is that there is still no news from Jiazhou.
Not only in Jiazhou, the heavy rain this time has a very wide range, and almost all parts of the south are within this range. Communications and traffic in many places have come to a standstill, but Yongcheng's situation is not bad in comparison.
“At the beginning of the site selection of the factory, we considered the problems that may occur when Yongcheng City is close to the branch of the Lingjiang River. There is no major problem due to the high terrain. Moreover, the buildings there are almost all newly built in the past two years. There is no leak of water or rain." In the study, Zhang Jingzhi was sitting across from Leng Sa reporting to her, while Shuilian and Wei Ran sat next to each other and took notebooks and pens to make some records from time to time.
"It's just that this heavy rain washed down many roads outside the city. The roads outside the city itself are not very good, and now it is even more... Now large vehicles are almost impassable, and the daily necessities sent to the outside of the city can only be used in small Transportation by vehicle and manpower." Zhang Jingzhi stopped here and looked at Leng Sa with some doubts, he could obviously feel Leng Sa's absent-mindedness.
Leng Sa noticed that Zhang Jingzhi's voice had stopped, so she blinked her eyes slightly and said, "Well, I understand. Let's organize personnel as soon as possible to repair the road with problems."
Zhang Jingzhi lowered his eyes and said, "This is already being done, but after all, it can only be resisted for a while. There are more and more factories outside the city, and the water circuit will become a big problem sooner or later. The most important thing at present is the road. Several small roads are now almost more crowded than the city center every day. If it is not solved, the industrial area will be directly affected.”
Leng Sa nodded and said, "We originally planned to repair the road first and send it to the Department of Transportation and Construction for a report. You have someone to urge some."
Zhang Jingzhi said with a smile, "There is a desire to build a road there. It's not that they deliberately delayed it, but I'm afraid they have more than enough power. I have been there twice, and just sat down there and complained to me that they have no money."
Leng Sa said, "We can't really rely on ourselves. They can't pull out a hair, right? Then the road is finally repaired, who is it? I'll talk to the Overseer later."
Zhang Jingzhi nodded and said, "It's best to do it as soon as possible, not only is the road construction imminent, but in a few days, there will be many homeless refugees coming from other places in Yongcheng. If these people are not controlled, there will be serious problems. ."
Leng Sa sighed, raised his hand and rubbed his brows and said, "I see, the Overseer must have something in mind."
This time the disasters in the six southern provinces are not serious, but it can be expected that people from other places will soon flood into the six southern provinces.
Zhang Jingzhi nodded silently, "Although the weather in the six southern provinces has been good in the past two years, the relief for refugees can only be managed for a while. After a long time, no matter how rich the six southern provinces are, they will not be able to sustain it. We must make plans early."
"What do you think of Jingzhi?" Leng Sa asked.
Zhang Jingzhi smiled and said, "Young madam, I am a businessman now."
Leng Sa disagrees, "Businessmen can also have ideas, and talk about it without losing a piece of meat. Let's brainstorm and solve problems faster."
Zhang Jingzhi sighed lightly, "I need time to think about it."
Smiles coldly, "You've worked hard, Mr. Zhang, I'm here for advice at any time."
Zhang Jingzhi reluctantly pinched his eyebrows and put the glasses back on again, sighing, "I'll go back first if I have nothing to do."
"Walk slowly." Leng Sa nodded and said, Zhang Jingzhi stood up and looked at her but did not leave, Leng Sa raised her head in confusion and asked, "Young Master Zhang?"
Zhang Jingzhi asked, "Is the young lady unwell? I see that you have been distracted just now."
Leng Sa shook his head, a little apologetically, "No, it's probably because there are too many things in the past two days, so I won't rest."
Zhang Jingzhi quickly accepted this reason, "It's important for the young lady to rest well, so I'll take my leave first."
Leng Sa didn't speak any more, and watched Zhang Jingzhi go out with a calm expression.
