Chapter 78 Hidden Crisis

 "Geng Zhong, you build the land exactly the same for Your Highness according to the house next door. When will they move in, you will also move in."

ah?

What?

He is a golden armor guard?

When did you become a coolie?

Geng Zhong lowered his head and responded honestly: "Yes."

A group of people retreated in disgrace.

Xiao Yong was a little puzzled, "Your Highness, can we still live in Fu'an Village? This is really unsafe."

"The most dangerous place is the safest place."

Ji Zimo turned around and headed towards the study room.

A man knelt on the ground in a dim room in Jiangcheng, nodded and lowered his head, "Master, Ye Man's identity was exposed and he was caught by Cao Ran. He is now in the prison of the General's Mansion."

"madness!"

In front of the square table, a middle-aged man slapped the table hard and said angrily: "A idiot who can do nothing but lose something."

"master,"

The man replied carefully: "Recently, Cao Ran and the old man from the Imperial Heaven Prison have been patrolling the riverside all day long. Some officers and soldiers gathered on the riverside and were working on strengthening the embankment. Not only was Ye Man arrested, he was likely to be unable to withstand severe torture and had already betrayed. What should we do?"

“Speed ​​up implementation plan.”

The middle-aged man ordered the orders gloomyly and did not forget to add: "Try to do everything possible to grasp the Xia family's mother and son, and hold them in his hands, so that Xia Chi can be obedient."

"yes!"

At night, the Xia family and all the people working in the room were gone.

Xia Qianqian and Li Yunniang finished packing up the things in the yard, added firewood to the brick kiln, and Yuanbao sat on a low stool beside him to read a book.

Xia Qianqian was holding her around the bonfire, woven a bamboo grasshopper in her hand. When she raised her eyes, she found Li Yunniang sitting beside her and sighing.

She put down the work in her hand and grabbed her hand, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Li Yunniang looked at the bonfire and said worriedly: "Li next door was lying at home for a day and didn't go out. The village chief asked someone to send a message to her man to come back."

"Okay!"

Xia Qianqian didn't think there would be any problems in the middle. "It's normal for his wife to get back a man when she is sick. Li is not conscious and needs someone to take her to see her."

"Qianqian, you don't know yet!"

Li Yunniang looked ugly, "Li's man Wang Feng works as a servant in the Hu family in Jiangcheng. It is said that the Hu family has a distant relative in the capital and takes special care of their family. Wang Feng is highly valued by the Hu family. If he comes back tomorrow and says something, don't argue with him!"

This relationship was circling around and almost confused Xia Qianqian.

But after a little analysis, she understood.

It turned out that the Hu family took advantage of the distant relatives of the capital to pretend to be a tiger's power in Jiangcheng.

Wang Feng took advantage of the prestige of the Hu family and acted as a blessing in Fu'an Village.

"Okay, don't worry!"

Xia Qianqian looked like I understood and said solemnly: "I know what to do."

If someone doesn’t offend me, I won’t offend anyone.

This is her criterion for dealing with people.

The bricks of this brick kiln at night are related to whether they can start building houses tomorrow.

So, she must keep guarding tonight so that no one will make trouble for her.

Li Yunniang disagreed and insisted on letting her go to rest.

Xia Qianqian couldn't help but let her guard the front and the middle of the night, while she went to guard the back and the middle of the night.

The two reached an agreement.

In the second half of the night, it was pitch dark and Xia Qianqian was guarding the bonfire. She was so sleepy.

She then poured the limestones on the ground together according to different recipes, poured them watered them, stirred them evenly, and tested their viscosity.

Think about it, after a while, she still needs to make tofu.

So Xia Qianqian used some branches to piece them together and made a square basket.

As long as people get busy, they will forget their time.

When the rooster crowed, a piece of fish belly appeared on the edge of the sky. Xia Qianqian stood up from the bonfire and stretched her waist.

A new day has begun.

A full day of vitality must start with a careful breakfast.

She cooked some millet porridge, cut the radish into shreds, and marinated it with seasoning water prepared in advance.

Wash a few more potatoes, cut them into shreds, add some chopped green onions, add a little salt, stir well, and put them in the pot and fry them slowly.

By the way, steamed a basket of big steamed buns in another large pot.

In just two days, they used more than half of the rice and flour.

While Li Yunniang was worried, she was also relieved.

The rice and flour are gone, but the house is there soon.

After a while, Geng Zhong and his men came on time again.

Who would have thought that not only did they come, but they also brought a truck of food and vegetables.

Xia Qianqian looked at the car full of things, laughing and crying, "Are you afraid that I have nothing to give you to eat?"

Eleven people were embarrassed by her.

"No, we may have to disturb us for a few more days." Geng Zhong answered quickly.

Xia Qianqian didn't know what she meant and greeted: "Even if the house is built and you like the food I cook, I will still make it for you."

"Come on, have breakfast."

A group of people got off the carriage and came to the table to take a look.

It's still a very ordinary meal, but it looks so delicious.

The group of people were not polite, so they did it themselves, had enough food and clothing, and each held a bowl and personally served the millet porridge.

Among the group, one of them stood there, just watching and not moving.

Xia Qianqian looked closely and saw that why this person was a little bit ill, she probably felt embarrassed.

She hurried forward, brought two cakes, brought a bowl of millet porridge, and put them on the table.

Upon her, she patted his shoulder and whispered: "Come and eat."

The man hesitated for a moment and turned around and sat on the stool.

Xia Qianqian handed him a pair of chopsticks and urged: "The pickled radish is sour and sweet, so delicious. Try it."

The man picked up the chopsticks, tasted them, then buried his head, and started eating silently.

Xia Qianqian was very satisfied.

Although these ingredients are simple, she can always make a taste that suits everyone's taste through her own secret seasoning.

The crowd waited and ran out of breakfast.

Finally, it's the most important thing today.

Open a brick kiln to check whether the bricks are fired successfully.

At this moment, Geng Zhong was excited.

After all, as a golden armor guard, this is the first time he has made bricks by himself and burned bricks by himself, so he is very excited.

Everyone came to the brick kiln in the backyard, removed the covered wooden boards, and a stream of hot air rose up.

Geng Zhong stepped forward, weighed it on a rag, took out one of the bricks, and threw it on the ground.

The bricks are square, bright red, thrown to the ground, very hard, no problem.

This is successful.

Everyone looked at each other, and surprise flashed in their eyes.

No one thought that under such a simple environment and facilities, one could actually bake qualified bricks by himself.

Geng Zhong's eyebrows were flying with excitement.

Xia Qianqian stood aside and couldn't help but say, "Guard Geng, you are so amazing. Your subordinates are really skilled, and you can do whatever you do."
