Ning Dalang made sure again and again that he had no sign of getting closer. In order to get rid of the people quickly, he opened his mouth and said: "Because the water level of the river in Fuyuan Village has always been stable. It has never risen like this year. It has risen more than once. Something abnormal will happen." There is a demon, the upper reaches of Xiaoxi River is Luozhou, where there are dams specially designed to prevent floods."

At this point, he paused: "The river water continues to rise, which makes people unable to help but worry..."

He didn't finish the second half of the sentence, but the beautiful man sighed in his heart and completed it - he was worried that there was something wrong with the dam! But if something goes wrong with the dam, it’s unknown what will happen to those counties and towns, but the dozens of villages along the river may not be able to escape!

Ning Dalang skipped the unnecessary words and just said: "The seedlings in the fields are still waiting to be sown. If there is waterlogging, the first ones to suffer are those of us who are farming."

The handsome man asked again: "Now that you have considered this, have you ever thought about moving away?"

Ning Dalang looked at him inexplicably, and the handsome man laughed at himself: "I asked a stupid question."

How can any farmer family move away from their hometown because of some unfounded worries?

This was the most melancholy thing for him. With a sigh, the handsome man bowed his hands towards Ning Dalang, turned around and left. Before he could go far, he heard the sweet and clear voice of the girl saying: "Brother, Let’s go pull up the shrimp basket, take out the shrimps while they are fresh and remove the shrimp threads, and I will make shrimp dumplings for you to eat.”

"The shrimp dumplings are delicious. I season the shrimps and mushrooms and wrap them in my special dough. The skin is different from ordinary dumpling skins. When steamed over high heat, it becomes translucent. You can see the inside through the skin. Tender pink shrimps, white mushrooms, green cucumbers and black fungus, take a bite..."

The handsome man stopped and turned around to look, but unfortunately the young girl had already walked away. He couldn't help but fell into deep thought - what about the back of the bite?

The housekeeper who had been waiting for a long time saw him coming back and hurriedly stepped forward to hand over the cloak. The beautiful man, no, Magistrate Shen waved his hand: "It's not that cold anymore. Why are you so precious? Think of me as a gift from heaven." Where is the boy?"

The housekeeper looked at his face and said, "Did the master encounter something worrying?"

Magistrate Shen sighed and turned his gaze in the direction of Xiao Xihe: "Yes."

"I'm very curious about what shrimp dumplings taste like," he said.

The housekeeper was stunned: "Huh?"

Magistrate Shen laughed heartily and then said solemnly: "I'm also curious about why the officials can't understand the problem that even a rural boy can think of. Or maybe they are turning a blind eye."

The housekeeper also worried: "If all the officials in the world can serve the country and the people like you, the people's lives will be much easier."

Magistrate Shen laughed and scolded: "Who did you learn this from? But you are right, I am not enough by myself. There are too few talents available to the court now. By the way, how is the academy doing?"

Speaking of this butler, he had a headache: "Ever since I heard that you have a recommended quota for the academy, the concierge has never stopped collecting messages." He sighed before continuing, "It's a pity that they are all just landlords, officials and gentry just joining in the fun. Really?" The learned ones are only one or two out of ten..."

Magistrate Shen touched his chin and said to him: "I think the young man from the Ning family you mentioned to me is very good. After so many visits to their house, no one has ever asked you?"

The housekeeper shook his head, very puzzled: "Didn't you hate this kind of relationship thing in the past?"

Magistrate Shen looked at him with disapproval: "You must be flexible when doing things!"

After pondering for a moment, he added: "God has given them so much care, and we parents have not come to say hello. No, this is too unreasonable. Butler, go and get ready. I think the weather is good these days. , let’s take some time to tell people and go visit Ning’s house.”
