Chapter 1899 Good News
At this time, Changliangwei, Dabuwei, and Yangshanwei were almost without water.
Kuang was so anxious that he came over in a carriage himself.
After it got dark, we arrived at Changliangwei. As soon as he saw Gu Jinli, he asked: "Sanlang's wife, it's been almost three days, have you found the water source? If it didn't work, my aunt went to ask for water. We can't let the three of us." Everyone in the guardhouse is dying of thirst!"
Kuang was so angry that after saying this, he scolded the Grizzly Bear Guard and the Shaliu Guard: "These two guards who killed a thousand people, were struck by lightning, and lost their incense, how did we offend them? It's not us. The emperor asked us to come. They have good relations with Qianhu, who used to be in charge of Yangshan, Dabu and Changliang Guards. Seeing that they have no guards, what is the use of venting their anger on us? If you have the ability, you can be the emperor. Master, go!"
Gu Jinli said with a smile: "Aunt Niu, please stop scolding me. Your voice has become hoarse. Scolding again will only consume the water in your body and make you thirstier."
After listening to this, Mrs. Kuang felt even thirstier. She swallowed her saliva and stared at her and said, "Can you still laugh? The soldiers, relatives, and animals of our three guards have thousands of lives in total, all waiting for a drink of water." It's been three days, and tomorrow will be the fourth day. If we don't have any water, we will die of thirst!"
She looked around and saw that the room was full of women, then she lowered her voice and said, "I'm almost peeing blood. If I don't drink water normally, I won't be able to stand it anymore."
"No, Auntie, drink it." Gu Jinli handed her the small half bowl of water he had saved, and also added a handful of rhubarb, which can clear away heat and cool blood, to prevent her from urinating blood.
When Kuang saw the water, she licked her dry mouth, waved her hands and said, "No, no, no, I'm not thirsty."
Gu Jinli put the wooden bowl into her hand and said, "Auntie, drink it, we have more water than you do."
When they wiped out the Nine Villages in Bailang Mountain, Brother Qin got the most horses and vehicles, so when they came to Changliang Wei, they loaded up a lot of vehicles.
Ji Zhenniang was also very thirsty. When she saw the water, she swallowed her saliva and complained: "Why don't you give me a drink?"
Niu Sijin was pleasantly surprised when he saw the raw sweet potatoes: "Sister-in-law, you still have raw sweet potatoes to eat, that's great, so you won't be thirsty."
means to eat raw sweet potatoes fiercely.
Gu Jinli knew that he was very thirsty, so he asked Erqing to prepay his water for tomorrow, and gave him half a bowl: "Drink. Don't just eat raw sweet potatoes. It will cause diarrhea. Eat some roasted ones."
Niu Sijin wanted to refuse, but Sister-in-law Qin lost her temper and became fierce. After thinking about it, she brought a cup, poured a glass of water and drank it. She smiled at Gu Jinli and said, "That's enough, Sister-in-law, I'm not thirsty anymore."
After Kuang's mother and son had eaten, Gu Jinli asked someone to take them down to rest.
Before leaving, Kuang asked Gu Jinli worriedly: "Xiaoyu, can Dr. Mutong really buy the water tomorrow? Will anyone sell it to him?"
The Kuang family was not stupid. They knew that their three guard stations would be without water. It was a plan jointly made by many guard stations, so they were very afraid that Mu Tong would not be able to buy water.
Gu Jinli said: "Don't worry, Auntie, the people in the guardhouse can't control the area too far away. We will definitely have water to drink tomorrow."
After hearing this, Mrs. Kuang was still worried. After all, she hadnt seen the water yet, and no one knew what the situation would be like tomorrow.
Kuang woke up several times that night and had nightmares. She dreamed that Mu Tong couldn't buy water, and the bandits came and they all died. It was so miserable!
Gu Jinli still slept with Ji Zhenniang, and she woke up three times. In addition to worrying about the water, she was also worried about Qin Sanlang... Brother Qin said when he left that he would be back tomorrow, but now the tomorrow he said has passed. It's been two days, but he hasn't come back yet.
I wonder if something happened?
Gu Jinli thought a lot, and fell asleep again in a daze.
The next day, before dawn, I was woken up by a burst of cheers.
Madam, Madam, Uncle Mutong is back and bought water. He brought ten loads of water back. We have water to drink! Xiao Ji was so excited that he banged the door to report the good news to Gu Jinli.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
