"Huaiwen and your brother have a very good relationship!" Mr. Tian said with emotion.
With the city closed, the two new household secretaries, Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan, quickly became familiar with their colleagues.
From his perspective, Yan Huaiwen is a man who is adaptable, upholds integrity, takes money lightly, and values trust and promises.
If your luck is good, you will be a good minister.
His younger brother, on the other hand, has a very expressive face and is easy to see through.
Enthusiastic, simple, kind, good at communication, good at mathematics...
I care a little about money.
But it is rare to be able to strictly abide by the gentleman's love of money.
He devoted himself to running for Huju City. Even if there was brotherly love in him, his heroic spirit could not be ignored.
The Yan family has a pure and upright family style, and they are people who can rely on for great things.
It seems that he was lucky. On a whim, he left Yan Huaiwen in Huju City.
Next year will be the year of the provincial examination, and we can only keep people until April or May at most.
Mr. Tian's heart moved.
"It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. With Huaiwen and Manshan, you can go home and celebrate with your family. It's not too late to come back three days after the festival for business."
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Huju should be restored to its original state. Since there are two uncles and nephews in Huaiwen's family who are suitable for school, they might as well enroll in the county school. The county examination early next year will be hosted by the county, and the subsequent government examinations and college examinations...
The scholar-gentleman in Fucheng and I are of the same age, and we often exchange letters, so this county knows a little about his writing style."
Yan Huai's enlightenment is deep in his heart.
Mr. Tian just didn't say clearly that if Tianyou and Heng'er came to the county to study, they would be able to achieve great success soon.
Originally there was only one spot, but he chose God's blessing.
But since we can come together, it would be better to go to the county to learn and experience.
Mr. Tian has a lot to learn from, not only in knowledge, but also in his conduct as a person.
If you can get two or three of them, you will benefit a lot.
"In addition, regarding the matter of the six Beirong soldiers, this county will come forward to negotiate with Mr. Xue Banner.
The villagers of Xiao'an first settled in my hometown of Huju. They are not afraid of the Northern Rong and are resolute and courageous. Those who are brave should be generously rewarded, so that they can live up to their passion."
Yan Huaiwen was touched. Mr. Tian was one of the few "good officials" he had seen in his two lifetimes.
This "good official" has nothing to do with praise or criticism, it is just a measure in his heart.
Those who know how to be an official, have talent, and are on the herdsman side.
Dealing with things smoothly and informally.
It can be a huge umbrella holding up the sky when it is extended, but its edge is hidden when it is converged.
Since he knew that Mr. Tian might be in trouble, he couldn't just sit back and watch.
I should protect a good official in these troubled times.
…
Yan Yu did not follow her father to Huju.
She wanted to take a good look at her patch of land in the woods.
Actually, I just wanted to see how many cement bricks the Boy Scouts had saved.
"Feng Nian, please report the accounts." Yan Xiaoer ordered with great style.
Although Liang Fengnian was a little numb, he was not completely unprepared because he had received her instructions in advance.
At first, he spoke a little slowly and his voice was a little soft, but after Yan Yu spoke "loud louder", Qi Luck Dantian not only spoke louder, but also sounded much more fluent.
The Boy Scouts are the most strict accounting team in the village.
Liang Fengnian not only thinks about the number of cement bricks accumulated every day, but also the division of labor and working hours that fall on each child.
Liang Fengnian finished reading.
Yan Yu did not write any ink at all and went straight to the topic.
"Everyone has worked hard these days while I'm away! I've calculated the cement bricks our Boy Scouts have saved so far. If we build a wall, it's only enough for a short section to surround the whole village. It's not even a bit short.
So I suggest that we build the watchtower first."
She came prepared.
Unfold a large piece of slightly thick paper made at home, ask Brother Dagouzi to bring over a simple wooden shelf, and carefully nail the paper to the shelf with a needle.
Let everyone see more intuitively and clearly.
"Someone may want to ask, what is an arrow tower?"
Yan Yu put one hand behind his back and pointed one finger on the paper, asking and answering himself: "This is the Arrow Tower!"
"As shown in the picture, the archery tower is as tall as several adults. Standing on a high place, you can see far away. If there are enemies, you can detect their whereabouts early and warn the villagers.
Standing on it, you are condescending and have a wider field of vision without obstruction, making it easier to shoot arrows.
If one can practice archery well and have archery skills like Uncle Hu or Uncle Hu, they will be so powerful that no enemy can reach the bottom of the archery tower alive.
One person can defeat ten or a hundred people!
These are the benefits of the archery tower!"
The children's eyes were shining brightly as they looked at the arrow tower drawn on the paper without turning their eyes or blinking.
"Can one watchtower hold us? How many more can we build? There are not enough cement bricks, so let's make more."
"Yan Xiaoer, how can I get to the archery tower? Does it depend on who has more work points?"
"No way, I heard clearly what the waiter said just now. It depends on the archery skills. Whoever can shoot accurately will be able to get in. Isn't it the waiter?"
Yan Yu: “Although we make the cement bricks, the materials used are not ours.
We don’t know how to build an arrow tower, so we have to find someone who can.
It is not appropriate for our Boy Scouts to pay for this money. The village should pay for it.
The arrow tower and the cement brick wall surrounding the village I mentioned earlier are all to protect our village.
Guanzhou is too close to Beirong. Maybe Beirong will come over the mountain again, so we have to be on guard."
"Yes, why should we children pay for it? Adults should pay for it."
"No, no, it's time to let Grandpa Luo and the others come out. They just sold our mules and donkeys, so they are rich!"
"That's right, it was clearly agreed to be fed by us, but it was suddenly sold without even telling us, causing my trip that day to be in vain." Wang Erlang said a little aggrievedly.
The people in front took their turn and took several dustpans of manure back.
Why is it gone once it reaches him?
Yan Yu quickly stopped the topic.
Her family was the first to buy a donkey, and others followed suit...
"There can't be too many people standing on the archery tower. Once it's built, we can take turns to go up there and play for a while. If we want to shoot arrows on it, we have to practice hard. Otherwise, even if we stand up there, it will be an embarrassment to our boy scouts."
"Where did it start? In the middle of the village?" a child asked.
"There should be one in the middle of the village, and one around the village."
Yan Yu used the charcoal pen he brought with him to quickly draw the outline of Xiao'an Village on the paper, and made four small dots on the four sides.
The children started discussing again: "There must be one on the other side of the mountain. Is it necessary on the river side? Build one too?"
"There is still a lot of open space on the big stone. Can it be built bigger?"
"One, two, three, four, there are five of them, so many."
"I think we should start at the center of the village, where the big rock is." Yan Yu said slowly.
The children all quieted down and listened to what she said next.
"If we build a brick wall first, four watchtowers will be enough, but there are not enough cement bricks now. If an enemy happens to come during this period, which direction do you think they will come from?"
The children all said it was the north side, the side against the mountain, and that the six Beirong soldiers a while ago came from the mountain.
"Beirong people usually come on horseback and rarely walk on mountain roads." Yan Yu consciously introduced their environment to the children.
