Sometimes people are just so weird.
I had met him before and thought it was just mediocre, but in an instant, I felt close to him.
Mr. Tian felt heavy after eating, and he walked with everyone among the temporary sheds in the village.
At dinner, the villagers of Xiaoan Village showed off their excellent craftsmanship.
For farmers, nothing is better than meat.
In this meal, various kinds of meat are served in turn, not to mention the common poultry, roe deer from the mountains, frogs from the fields, tortoises from the river make soup...
It can only be said that everyone in Xiaoan Village has a pair of eyes that discover food.
Yan Laoer has more interactions with the villagers, so don't be too relaxed when taking your future teacher to the food stalls.
The more Mr. Tian looked at him, the more he liked him. He could easily tell the difference between the people of Xiao'an Village and the two Yan brothers.
They respect and admire Yan Hushu, and are close to and trust Yan Er.
Occasionally, this big old man would do some little poking and cooing gestures behind his back, which made people laugh.
To make people treat you sincerely, you need to treat others with sincerity.
The Yan family is really good.
…
"The laborers Huju recruited before have all returned home. The only people I can mobilize now are probably the criminals exiled here." Mr. Tian said slowly.
Yan Huaiwen listened attentively and didn't say much.
He was the one who asked Mr. Tian to let the exiles help them move stones and build walls.
After this day's stay in Xiao'an Village, I think Mr. Tian has made a decision in his mind.
"The quarry has heavy tasks, so we can only send some old and weak people here."
Yan Huaiwen was satisfied and said harmoniously: "Thank you, Sir, for your consideration."
Yan Laoer was listening next to him.
He knows the exiled people and the criminals. Can he send the old and the weak to work? Is it okay? Are you sure they can do the work?
He tried hard to recall what he had seen and heard when he went to the quarry before.
He couldn't think of anything. After all, every time he went there, he never went deep into the outside. The quarry was so big that he really didn't see many people except for the officers and soldiers who were in charge and guards.
"There is one more thing on this trip." Master Tian paused: "That is the reward for killing Beirong."
"I have negotiated with Mr. Xue Qi. He can give the head money equal to Yongning, but there is a condition." He was a little embarrassed when he said this, and his voice became softer: "If the person who killed the soldiers is willing to enter,
If the tiger occupies the garrison, a corresponding reward will be replenished, and military merits can also be accumulated with the heads."
He gave those present time to digest the information.
The village elders were stunned.
Village Chief Luo asked hesitantly: "I dare to ask, sir, what if I don't go?"
"Then we can only follow Huju's past practice." Mr. Tian comforted: "Don't feel aggrieved. This is the case in several border towns. This money did not go into anyone's pocket. Most of it was for the construction of border defenses.
purpose."
As soon as he explained this, the hearts of several old men became enlightened.
"Since it has always been like this, we have nothing to say, so we will just act like this." Village Chief Luo said.
Master Tian nodded, then turned to Yan Huaiwen and said: "In addition to this head money, there is also a reward. I originally planned to give you silver, but as I saw today, Xiao'an Village needs a lot of lime and gypsum to build walls and watchtowers.
, you can have one more choice, to offset it with something, and I can give you this reward in exchange for these two things.”….
"I would like to exchange the silver reward for lime and gypsum." Yan Huaiwen replied without hesitation.
There are indeed some scattered items for sale in the shop, but the quantity is never large. The amount required by Xiao'an Village is not a small amount. If I buy it with real money, I am afraid that the government's reward will not be enough.
This is obviously Mr. Tian's move to subsidize Xiao'an Village.
Yan Huaiwen also understood in his heart that it was okay to send some people to work, but not to give him things.
The Huju government office cannot set this precedent, otherwise all the villages and towns below will ask for it, and the government office will not be able to afford it.
For those who are superior, no matter what happens in private, at least they should maintain a bowl of water on the surface so that no one can detect bias.
Mr. Tian nodded and said: "Liang Hushu, I have worked hard for you to put the autumn grain into the warehouse. This year, the harvest day is early and there is plenty of time. Our Huju is very close to Yongning. There is no need to rush. Everything can be done step by step according to the rules."
.”
Liang Manshan said solemnly: "Yes, sir."
There is no need to rush when the autumn grain is delivered to Yongning after it is stored in the warehouse, but because there is plenty of time, there is no room for any mistakes.
The time is tight and the tasks are heavy. It can be said that mistakes are made while busy. This year, I started early and there is enough time. If I make mistakes again, it will be difficult to explain.
What's more, Master Tian and Brother Huaiwen are going to Gufeng.
He, the household secretary, has become the person in charge of collecting grain taxes, and the pressure is great.
Master Tian encouraged the village elders for a few more words and then returned to Huju.
Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan drove each other off.
The sheds at the big rocks were slowly being packed up, and each family started to pack up their stalls and go home.
The Yan family is an exception.
Yan Lao Er arranged the meals for Mr. Tian in the courtyard, while Aunt Rong took care of the shed outside.
All other dishes were gone, except tofu. The Yan family ordered a lot of it. Apart from cutting a few pieces for people in the village who wanted to eat, the rest was originally planned to be made into dried tofu and could be stored for a few more days.
But the oiled tofu was so fragrant, especially after Grandma Rong brushed the seasoning and handed it to Li Xuemei.
Li Xuemei didn't eat much at night. Mr. Tian ate well, but her appetite was average. She didn't eat anything except sauerkraut, skinned vegetables and pickled vegetables.
Fried tofu originally suited her taste, but she didn't expect Mr. Tian to like it too, so she didn't have the nerve to stretch her pussy more.
I saw the second aunt of the Yan family taking the skewered tofu and eating it in small bites.
I can't take my eyes away from the five irons.
Seeing how greedy he looked, Li Xuemei couldn't help but laugh and stuffed him with a stick of fried tofu.
Wutie, this child, besides being able to cry and howl, also has so many facial expressions when eating.
He used his little face to vividly explain what is delicious, delicious, really delicious.
Therefore, more greedy boys refused to leave and stared at the second aunt of the Yan family with longing eyes.
Li Xuemei:......
I had to give each of them a bunch.
Yan Yu originally thought she was full, but when she saw the tofu skewers, her belly bulged and she felt she could still eat.
[To be honest, I have been using @@ recently to read and catch up on updates, change sources, and read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
Like the children around her, she waited patiently until she got four, ran to give one to her eldest brother and sister, and then took the remaining two to share with her father.
"Dad, it's a good thing that you didn't go to see the eldest man off. He's so cute. If you had gone to see him off, he would have been fine on his way back. How miserable it would be to see how good you are."
Yan Laoer sighed: "I hope Mr. Tian can feel my father's enthusiasm and be more generous in the future!"
Yan Yu was overjoyed: "Dad, I must have felt it. Even if you didn't look at me, I looked at you several times. I must have felt it deeply!"
Yan Laoer nodded seriously: "Your uncle must think that I have done a good job. I am a guest from far away. He sends people to work for us and gives us things in a weird way. I can't be more enthusiastic."
"You have a good grasp of your temper today, dad, you are kind and not flattering." Yan Yu praised.
Yan Laoer gave her a look of affirmation: "My daughter is also very good. I heard that she helped your eldest brother stand out today. That's all. You are still young. It's okay to crawl around. Your eldest brother is already in his teens.
"Children of this age value face more than anything else."
As soon as Li Xuemei came over, she heard the two men blowing each other here.
He coughed lightly and asked, "Do you need to make any preparations tonight?"
