Chapter 244 Why did you run down? !
Lingxi didn't care what her father meant by secretly saying that. She just thought Pei Yanning was praising her and nodded seriously: "I also think that I am most like my father!"

Pei Yanning felt instantly comforted by Lingxi's words.

Gu Si was speechless as he looked at the father and daughter who looked so happy, and called out to Gu Qingnan and Zhao Jianan: "There are melons in the backyard. They are growing so fast that we can't finish them. You two can take some back later."

Gu Qingnan came to play and saw an empty space and insisted on planting it.

It would be fine for their family to eat them occasionally, but because there were better options, they just left them there and had to water them with great effort. Now that he thought about it, Gu Si simply called the two of them to the backyard to pick them.

It’s a famine year and everything is in short supply. Their family doesn’t like to eat it, but it’s a real good thing for other people.

Lingxi ignored them and saw that Pei Yanning had just washed his hands, so she pulled the towel over and handed it to him.

Pei Yanning did not take the towel. He shook the water off his hands and deliberately flicked the water droplets on the back of his hands, splashing them all over Lingxi's face.

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

"dad!"

Lingxi glared at him.

Is it childish?

Pei Yanning laughed out loud, and it was obvious that he was very happy to amuse his own daughter in this way.

Before Lingxi got angry, he put his hand on Lingxi's shoulder and walked back with her, sighing.

"Dad has to be busy again!"

Ok?
Lingxi looked at him in confusion.

Pei Yanning explained to her carefully: "Everyone saw the water today and believed it. It's not a desperate situation yet. Although every household is short of water now, they haven't had their water cut off. But when the water is really cut off, our house will be a little conspicuous."

He couldn't make the surrounding grass and trees wilt like everywhere else in the blink of an eye, nor did he want to go through the trouble of pulling out all the surrounding trees, grass and flowers!

and so--

We still have to find a way to deal with the water problem.

Lingxi understood.

Pei Yanning was planning to find water.

The exploration team was just formed this year and consists of highly professional geological experts transferred from the capital.

Because of last year's steelmaking, everyone has gained some understanding of iron and ore.

There was a food shortage this year, and someone picked up iron ore when he went into the mountains to dig wild vegetables. He was unsure about it, so he brought it back, found someone to ask, and then reported it.

Naturally, the factory immediately took it seriously.

When their factory was producing steel in large quantities, Pei Yanning happened to have several expert professors with corresponding technical skills, so the machinery factory's performance was far ahead of the nearby counties, cities and provinces, and it was considered to have exceeded the task target.

Now, if they really found an iron mine, they might be able to set up a steel plant under their machinery factory.

By then, this factory directly under the province may be able to be upgraded to a higher level!

Therefore, Zheng Bing specifically asked his old leader to find this group of people in the exploration team, who are highly professional, serious and responsible.

They are really capable!

Pei Yanning was a man who did what he said. While Zheng Bingjin and Qingyao were dealing with the issues of donated food and water and their distribution, he directly requisitioned the infrastructure team and the group of geological experts. The geological experts would choose the location, and the infrastructure team would be responsible for digging.

I don’t know if it was because the geologist was really good or he was lucky or something else, but Pei Yanning actually dug out water.

Water, the source of life!

It's easy to live with water.

When the people in the factory heard this, they excitedly rushed over to help.

The situation is special during famine periods. Now we only work half a day, and the remaining half of the day we are starving and have to look for food everywhere. Now that we have water, we are excited and have more strength.

Having water means they won't be thirsty anymore, they can irrigate the crops, and they have food. Everyone is full of energy, cheering and jumping for joy, and the originally quiet factory is now bustling with activity.

Pei Yanning led his men to dig wells one by one. Some of the wells produced little water, some had no water at all, but some also had water.

The water pressure in the factory was relieved at once, and there was extra water for irrigation.

As long as the sweet potatoes grow well, people will not starve. By the time every household has harvested the sweet potatoes, life in the factory is surprisingly leisurely.

Everyone had a smile on their face.

Now everyone is looking at Pei Yanning and being intimate.

Whenever they met Pei Yanning on the road, they would stuff two handfuls of green vegetables into Pei Yanning's arms. From time to time, some people would even pick a handful of vegetables, tie them up, and throw them into their yard.

Lingxi has always had the habit of taking a lunch break.

I was sleeping that day!

Then she heard the baby crying in a melodious voice. The baby was only ten months old and his pronunciation was not standard yet. Lingxi was half asleep and opened her eyes, but she didn't see anyone.

“Cool, cool, cool…”

Lingxi looked in the direction of the sound and now she was awake, she saw her little son A Zhao baby wearing a small bellyband with his bare bottom and bare feet, one hand holding a bundle of green vegetables that someone had thrown into the house at some point in time, and the other hand supporting the ground, and no one knew how he had crawled back.

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

She was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

She quickly jumped out of bed and hugged the man.

Baby Mingzhao raised his face and pushed the little Qingcai in his arms into Lingxi's arms, looking up for praise.

Lingxi was going crazy.

"A Zhao, you are not a good boy. Why did you run down here?"

Baby Mingzhao didn't understand why his mother didn't kiss or praise him after he brought back the things, and instead said that he was a bad boy.

He just looked at Lingxi with tears in his eyes.

Lingxi picked him up and sat him on the bed. She was about to pat his little feet, but she was startled when she felt they were wet and sticky. As expected, she looked down and found that her hands were stained red.

She touched Ah Zhao's little hand again, and sure enough, the skin was scratched as well.

Lingxi cried out of pain and wanted to say something to him, but he didn't understand. She didn't want to say anything, as she felt bad. In the end, she just coaxed him, "Ah Zhao, be good. It doesn't hurt anymore!"

He immediately washed it with spring water and bandaged it. It was at this time...

When she turned around, she saw the older girl tumbling down from the small bed with guardrails.

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

Ahhhhh!

"Hanhan!"

Lingxi was so frightened that she forgot to beat her heart and ran over to answer it.

however--

The little girl stepped on the horizontal bar little by little, grabbed on to it with her hands, and landed on the ground by herself. She then stood on the ground, tilting her head and smiling at her.

Lingxi: “…”

!!!

Gu Sizheng and Pei Yanning were chatting about machine tools in the study. The previous machine tool drawings have been put into production, and the country's related machine tools no longer need to rely on imports. This is a big deal. Pei Yanning has received quite a few calls recently, and those who were not very familiar with him before all tried to get close to him one sentence at a time.

Pei Yanning was fed up with it and planned to find something else to do...

But at this moment, I heard some noise outside.

The two of them hurried out, and as soon as they came out, they saw Lingxi bandaging the second boy with tears streaming down her face. The second boy was sitting on the bed, looking ignorant and innocent, and there was some blood in the basin of water on the ground.

And beside...

There was also Minghan, who had a small bun on her head, giggling and clapping her hands.

This situation is simply tragic.
