Xianggong farming

Chapter 326
Seeing that his uncle was really curious, Huzi smiled proudly and modestly: "Uncle, my nephew can't talk about any kung fu, it's just some self-defense things taught by my godmother and godfather. When I was young, my sister and I were often scolded He is a wild child, and the older children in the village always bully us. The godmother said, it is better to learn some kung fu by yourself. Let us remember: if people do not attack me, I will not attack others. If people attack me, hit them hard. For Don't let my younger sisters be bullied, after my godfather left home, I pestered my godmother to learn a little bit."

Liu Chenghu asked in surprise: "You mean your godmother knows kung fu?"

Bear boy, don't you know how to use your brain?Still so cool!

Forget it, I blame myself for not teaching him.

When Ji Xinmiao was a little bit remorseful, Huzi was quite strong: "Uncle, my nephew told you that it's not my godmother who knows kung fu, she only knows the self-defense skills my godfather taught me. But we They practiced very seriously, and now the children in the village dare not bully us."

This kid is really smart, maybe it's because he saw his godmother's face very anxious?

Otherwise, why would you change your mind immediately?Well, Confucianism can be taught!He is a child who knows how to adapt.

He remembered that the child was adopted by Qi Dalang, and for a moment Liu Chenghu looked at Ji Xinmiao with a trace of unknown emotion in his eyes.

Liu Chenghu smiled weirdly at her again, Ji Xinmiao couldn't understand this smile.

Chen Lie, who had never spoken much, looked up at Ji Xinmiao who was sitting down at the table when Huzi was talking to Liu Chenghu. This really surprised him: two two- and three-year-old girls were actually serious I'm eating!With such a small child, which one doesn't hold him in his arms and feed him?And judging from how familiar these two children are with eating, it may not be a day or two to eat by themselves!

Chen Lie nodded secretly in his heart, it seemed that his brother had not been buried at last.After dinner, no matter how Ji Xinmiao and Aunt Qi tried to persuade them to stay, they had to wait until Qi Dalang came back, but they still left.

When the two left the village, Liu Chenghu looked at the five taels of silver in his hand and asked with a smile, "What do you think, my lord? Brother Dalang is still waiting for you in the camp."

Chen Lie smiled slyly: "This is Da Lang's daughter-in-law, no matter what we don't have the right to speak. However, my lord has an idea. Didn't he invite fifty brothers to help him build a house? Anyway, in the camp It doesn’t take so many people to cook and clean. See which brothers are willing to come to this country, let them sign up, the wages and money will be paid by the camp, and he will take care of the food, drink and lodging. He will let him take care of them as long as he wants to use them. How long will it take?"

Is there such a thing?Liu Chenghu was really surprised.

"If the Dalang brothers only built a few houses, fifty brothers would finish the work in three to five months. I don't think it will take long. These brothers are indeed fine in the camp, and the expenses are huge. , if he can keep using them here, it will reduce the burden on the adults."

Seeing Liu Chenghu's questioning expression, Chen Lie smiled: "Didn't Da Lang say that all the barren hills behind his new home have been reclaimed into orchards? When we passed by just now, the orchards hadn't fully matured yet, but in two years' time the orchards will be reclaimed." , I’m afraid it’s going to be fruitful. I see that there are still large stretches of barren hills connected to his orchard!”

Liu Chenghu's eyes lit up: "My lord wants to..."

"Hahaha... He who knows me is also a military advisor!" Master Chen took the horse that had been waiting at the entrance of the village all this time, turned on his back, and walked away.

Liu Chenghu, who was left with a sympathetic face, turned his head and glanced at Qi Dalang's yard.

Later, when Ji Xinmiao found out that she was tricked by Chen Da, she was so angry that she almost jumped up and scolded her mother, thinking that the dog had eaten her carefully prepared meal!

When Qi Dalang came back with the five carriages, Ji Xinmiao's eyes were bigger than the lanterns: "Sir, are these all brothers from your army camp?"

Qi Dalang chuckled: "Yes, I used to be brothers who served as soldiers together. I originally told my lord that I wanted fifty people. But I didn't realize that my lord missed the past and insisted on sending a hundred people. I said that there is no need for so many. He said that after building the house, it would be okay for everyone to help open up the barren hills. This group of brothers is not young, and secondly, they will not be injured more or less. Most of the veterans are from the military, and there are no relatives in their hometown, so he asked me to bring more people back, and each person will pay one or two taels of silver per month by the adults."

Although Ji Xinmiao relieved her surprise after hearing Qi Dalang's words, she always felt that there was something she couldn't grasp in her mind.Why is this grown-up so righteous?The friendship of the ancients is too unbelievable for sending people out and giving them wages.

But people have come, anyway, the family really needs a lot of people, Ji Xinmiao said in embarrassment: "It's just that the places we live can only accommodate five or sixty people, so many people have come..."

At this time, a person jumped out of the car, about forty years old, he stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Zhang Hu has seen Madam."

Qi Dalang hurriedly introduced: "Daughter-in-law, this is Brother Zhang, the leader of this team."

Ji Xinmiao greeted immediately: "Brother Zhang, I will work hard for you in the future."

"Don't, don't, madam, don't say that. We used to be soldiers under Lord Qi. We are all very happy to help you this time. We are all veterans, and we all have been in the army for 30 or [-] years. , everyone is homeless. Now we can't fight anymore, and we have no place to go. We followed the adults to the place, and we are idle. It's too late to be happy to come here to help. Where is the hard work? Don't worry about what Madam was worried about just now. People who can sleep on the battlefield, how can they not sleep well? Besides, we all brought salutes, so let's make up for these two days, and we can build our own residence tomorrow."

Now Ji Xinmiao really has nothing to say, don't let her pay the wages, don't care about the residence, there is such a good thing in this world?In the evening, Ji Xinmiao told Qi Dalang's comrades-in-arms who came two days ago: "It seems that one is called Chen Da and the other is called Chen Hu. They said they used to be brothers in one of your Zhanhaoli. I kept them for a long time, but they didn't care. I don’t want to stay no matter what, and said that there will be a chance to meet in the future, and I will definitely visit again next time I come here.”

Chen Da, Chen Hu?
Qi Dalang frowned and thought for a long time, but he didn't remember who these two people were.These two people are definitely not good comrades in arms, maybe they have met once or twice in the previous battalion.

Since the daughter-in-law stayed and they were willing to stay, it must not be the best group of people.

Seeing his seriousness, Ji Xinmiao smiled: "If you can't remember it, think about it slowly. Didn't they say they will come again? I think they don't dress well, and they look very haggard. I gave them away when they left." Five taels of silver per person."

Seeing his daughter-in-law think so thoroughly, Qi Dalang had no choice but to put it down temporarily, thinking about these two names, the doubts in his heart became bigger and bigger...
