Chapter 54 You are just an illiterate, what can you compare with me?

Ye Ying's words made Lin Ranran's face turn pale instantly. Wasn't this clearly questioning her?

"Of course I know!" She almost shouted.

"Ye Ying, don't think you can show off just because you know something. You are just an illiterate. How can you compare with me?"

At this moment, Lin Ranran's face was distorted with anger, but Ye Ying, on the other hand, looked calm and composed.

Ye Ying was indeed illiterate in the past, but now Nei Ke is at least a college student.

And...what's the meaning of showing off? This is clearly called applying what you have learned!

Aren’t the things we learn meant to be used?

The more Ye Ying thought about it, the more dissatisfied she became. She deliberately said loudly:

"Since you know this method, why don't you tell everyone earlier, so that useless work can be avoided?"

As soon as the words fell, someone spoke up: "Yeah, Ranran, you know why you didn't tell us earlier, and made us scoop water with a broken bucket for most of the day! Our waists are so sore!"

Zhou Lingling was also somewhat dissatisfied: "Yes, you are the most educated one here, you should have said such a good idea earlier!"

"In that case, we can just unblock a few pipes and the accumulated water will be gone in no time. Why would we need to waste so much energy?"

Several people were talking to each other, making Lin Ranran's face even uglier.

Seeing that Lin Ranran was about to get angry, Xiulian hurriedly said:

"Okay! Now is not the time to blame Ranran. Let's follow Xian Yeying's method and get a few more pipes to clear out the accumulated water here first!"

"Yes!" Liu Juan nodded in agreement.

Although she usually had a bad temper and had a feud with Ye Ying, she knew that the most important thing at the moment was to drain the water in the cafeteria, so she went to find a pipe and asked Ye Ying how to use it.

Ye Ying was a little surprised, but she still taught Liu Juan.

Now, the two pipes are discharged together, which is much faster.

Seeing this, the others tried their best to find a few pipes from various places.

Five pipes were used to drain water together, and the wives of the soldiers also used buckets and ladles. With everyone's concerted efforts, the accumulated water in the huge cafeteria was cleared to a level only as high as the instep of the feet.

After a lot of effort, everyone finally cleaned up the water in the cafeteria, but what about the water in the yard outside?

"Ye Ying, can this method also drain the accumulated water in the yard?" Xiu Lian frowned and looked at the vast ocean in front of her.

Ye Ying observed the water in the yard and found that she had no idea where to drain it!

Behind the cafeteria is low-lying wasteland, which can still be discharged through the windows.

As for the water accumulation in the yard, she was not sure whether the siphon principle would work on such a high wall.

"It should...not be possible!" Ye Ying said.

Sun Lin: "Then... we can only use that stupid method?"

Ye Ying saw some small whirlpools and judged that they were the drains. She hurriedly stopped everyone from scooping water: "There is a drain in the yard, but it may be blocked by something. The water is flowing down very slowly!"

"Everyone, split up and find a small whirlpool. That's where the sewer is. Clear away all the garbage and debris piled up next to the sewer! That way the water will drain faster."

Lin Ranran rolled her eyes after hearing this: "Ye Ying, can you stop treating us like idiots? Do you need to teach us such a simple thing? Everyone knows this, right?"

Ye Ying didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Ranran's weird attitude. She looked at her as if she was an idiot and found a branch to clean the drain.

Xiulian hurriedly followed.

Seeing this, everyone started looking for different drains, leaving Lin Ranran standing there awkwardly, not knowing whether to leave or not.

Ye Ying poked the drain with a branch a few times, and a pile of leaves and several torn plastic bags floated up.

Sure enough, it was blocked by something.

She said, it’s 1986, after all it’s in a military compound, the drainage shouldn’t be that bad!

After the sewer was cleared, the accumulated water in the yard began to flow down slowly, and in about an hour it reached the calf level.

When the soldiers came back with their support, the water on the ground was almost up to their ankles. They were stunned when they saw buckets and ladles scattered all over the yard.

But she quickly realized what had happened and couldn't help but look at the military wives with admiration.

When Xiulian saw Hao Yonggang, she threw away the branch in her hand and walked over to him. "Old Hao, didn't you go to the local area to provide support? How come you are back so soon? I thought it would take ten days or half a month!"

Hao Yonggang waved his hands and said, "I went, but nothing happened! The higher-ups let me go back!"

Xiulian was surprised: "Ah? How come nothing happened? Isn't Linkeng Village flooded every year? Why is it so..."

"I heard they dug a drainage canal!"

Linkeng Village!

Upon hearing the name of the village, Ye Ying paused in her action of clearing the sewer. Isn't this the village of the boy selling bamboo shoots in the Friendship Market?

She was deeply impressed by the young man. She still remembered that there was a note attached to the large scale she used to weigh herself, which said it was for "Linkeng Village Production Team" only.

I didn't expect that it was their village that was hit by the disaster. Although it sounds like it's not a big problem, if that's the case, will they still be able to pull out crops to sell in their village?

"What are you doing?" While Ye Ying was still in a daze, Ji Lianqi's voice came from behind.

Ye Ying was startled and turned around quickly.

She found that at this moment, she was much more powerful than Ji Lianqi who came to support her!

"You're back. I'm clearing the sewer. This place and the cafeteria were flooded this afternoon."

Ji Lianqi was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and glanced at Ye Ying's calf. "You are injured."

Ye Ying looked down suddenly and found that she had been scratched on the back of her heel by something. There was a long dark red scar and the pain came almost at that moment.

"Hiss! If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known I was scratched."

"Go back and disinfect."

Seeing that the accumulated water on the ground had almost no effect, Ye Ying nodded, then followed Ji Lianqi with the bucket in hand.

Lin Ranran went back in a huff when the military wives were still cleaning up the water in the yard. Now, seeing this scene in the corridor on the third floor, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth, with a look of unwillingness on her face.

After returning to the house, Ji Lianqi fetched a bucket of water and asked Ye Ying to wash herself first, and then apply iodine.

As soon as she finished wiping the iodine on her front feet, Ji Lianqi pulled her fat feet over and started wrapping gauze around them.

Ye Ying moved, subconsciously trying to pull her feet back, "Well... I can do it myself!"

She is not used to other people touching her feet. It would be embarrassing if her big feet smelled.

But the nickname of macho was not for nothing. Her feet were controlled by Ji Lianqi and she couldn't move at all.
