When Liu Shiyi came to the canal construction site this time, he naturally wanted to show off. Although the canal was neatly repaired, it was easy to deliberately find faults.
Ding Hao is not a wise man who regards fame and fortune as floating clouds. Otherwise, why would he still work hard in the world? But since he has no ambitions in the Ding family, he only needs to do things in the Ding family that are worthy of his heart, and he doesn't care whether he praises his own achievements.
It's derogatory.
Ding Hao's attitude made Liu Shiyi feel like he was punched on cotton, feeling helpless. Ding Hao smiled and said nothing, but Zhen Baozheng couldn't look at it, and kept standing by to express his merits for Ding Hao. He and
Liu Shiyi has always been friendly, so it is not inconvenient for Liu Shiyi to rub his face too much.
When they came to the river, they saw the river workers struggling in the river covered in mud. However, the river was full of soup and mud, which made the simple excavation tools very inefficient. The river workers complained endlessly and the excavation progress was extremely slow. Liu Shiyi
I couldn't help but frown when I saw it.
Zhen Baozheng saw his expression and complained: "Old Liu, our digging speed has always been very fast, but something went wrong here. It is really not easy to dredge the river. The river workers have tried their best. If we want to go faster, unless
Increase the manpower, otherwise even the gods can't do anything."
Liu Shiyi curled his lips and said: "You burn countless incense, how can the gods care about your canal construction? This river channel... was demarcated by the state government early in the morning?"
"yes."
"That's it, then you already knew that the river reaches this point and needs to be connected to a ready-made river. You should have thought that the soft silt in the river is difficult to dig, so why didn't you make preparations and disconnect the river in advance? You didn't make any plans in advance.
, that’s it, now that the river is cut off, the river mud is soft and difficult to dig, so why not skip this section of the river and continue digging forward for the time being. Now that the weather is getting hotter, once the river is cut off, in just a few days, the mud here will be gone
It will break into pieces of mud. Wouldn't it be much easier for you to go back and clean up this section of the river at that time?"
"Wow!" Zhen Baozheng was overjoyed: "Old Liu, your words woke me up in my dream. Xiao Ding and I were attracted by this river. We were racking our brains just thinking about how to clean it out, but there was such a simple way.
But I didn’t expect, haha, I’m going to ask the people to stop working and skip this section for the time being.”
Ding Hao's face felt hot when he heard this. When he encountered obstacles in clearing the river, he also tried his best to think of many ways, but each method started from how to solve the difficulty of digging silt, but his knowledge in this area was extremely limited.
What he thinks most about is relying on mechanical power. But even if he was an excavator designer in his previous life, under the current objective conditions, he would not be able to build a usable machine. Who would have thought that with just one word from Liu Shiyi,
It saves them a lot of effort. In fact, there is nothing clever about this method, but not everyone can think forward and think carefully the first time they do something. If there is no experience taught by predecessors, it is all up to you to explore on your own, and you will have to walk a lot.
It took a few detours to figure it out.
He glanced at Liu Shiyi and thought to himself: When it comes to experience and tips to adapt to this era, it seems that I still have a lot to learn from others.
That night, Liu Shiyi stayed at the construction site. Zhen Baozheng did his best to use the existing conditions to prepare a few side dishes. He also asked someone to go up the mountain to hunt a pheasant, picked some fresh mushrooms and stewed them, and cooked them for himself.
He brought out a jar of old wine and invited Ding Hao to congratulate Liu Shiyi, who had just been promoted to the second manager of the inner courtyard.
When Liu Shiyi sat at the wine table, he lost his arrogant attitude during the day. After receiving a few compliments from others, his face became even more cheerful. Ding Hao didn't say much, he just drank a few drinks perfunctorily, and in Zhen Baozheng's eyes
, I felt that Manager Ding had been robbed of an important job, which was why I felt depressed.
From Zhen Baozheng's point of view, Ding Hao was really young and difficult to compare with Liu Shiyi in terms of his conduct and experience. Regardless of his personal relationship with Zhen Yangge and Liu Shiyi, to be honest, Liu Shi
It is appropriate for Yi and Ding Hao to change positions with each other. Ding Hao's ability to become a manager at such a young age has already proven his ability. If he has to wait a few more years to gain seniority, he will still have a bright future in the Ding family. There is no need to think about it if he is young.
He reached the sky in one step. So he asked him for a drink. Liu Shiyi seemed to relax and raised his glass to him frequently. Ding Hao dealt with it casually, but he drank more wine.
When the bright moon was rising, Ding Hao felt a little tired, so he pushed his glass to say goodbye. Liu Shiyi stopped him a few times, then sent him out of the tent with a smile on his face. When he saw him walking away alone, he waved to his follower Wang Yu.
With a wink, he grabbed Zhen Baozheng who also wanted to say goodbye and left, and dragged him back to the tent with a smile.
As the river is dug, the tents of the river workers are also moved forward along the river at any time. Today, with Liu Shiyi's advice, Zhen Bao is ordering them to temporarily skip this section of the river that has just been cut off and dig forward. At noon
The tent also moved forward. Because several pots and stoves were cooking, the tents of the pot stoves, several cooks, and the tents of Zhen Baozheng, Ding Hao, Liu Shiyi and other stewards were still there.
Stay where you are. Now that the two camps are separated by a mile or two, it will be much quieter here.
The surrounding fields were silent, the bright moon in the sky was cold, and insects were chirping in the grass. It was quiet and elegant. Ding Hao, who was slightly drunk, was walking alone, but he didn't notice two people quietly touching behind him.
While walking, Ding Hao suddenly stopped and looked around. The two people who were quietly following him immediately hid themselves in the grass. When Ding Hao saw that there was no one around, he stood firm, took off his robe, and walked in the field.
The situation became more convenient. When the two people saw each other, they gestured to each other and approached gently like civet cats.
Ding Hao untied his hands, tied up his robe, and was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly, his vision went dark. Before he could react, he received another hard blow on his head, and immediately fell down dizzy.
At this time, Luo Dong'er and several cooks were still awake. After Manager Liu finished drinking, they had to clean up the dishes. Under the weak light, four women sat there mending clothes and chatting.
Homely affairs. The aunts chatted about the family affairs, and the conversation came to Luo Dong'er. The aunts were a little frightened by the unruly Dong Li family. They would not talk about the Dong family's family affairs, but this place
These few people were accustomed to seeing Ding Hao's closeness to Luo Dong'er and the river workers talking and laughing, so they started talking about it without any taboo.
"Dong'er, to be honest, Manager Ding is really a good person. Although this child has been a little dazed since he was a child, he has always been a good and honest child. Now that he has been enlightened by the Fox Fairy and has gained enlightenment, he is even better at talking and doing things.
No choice. He is now the manager of the Ding family, what a promising person he is?"
Luo Dong'er blushed, lowered her head and said nothing.
Another aunt said: "Of course, if you are willing to keep integrity for your husband, aunt shouldn't say such things, but you were only a young man when you married into the Dong family. The Dong family's child is a skinny and shabby person. I will marry you." You are like a young boy who has not grown up. How can you two have any affection? Your mother-in-law is so mean to you. Although she is famous in the village for being unruly, and her family has many brothers, uncles and nephews, no one dares to provoke her. She, but who gets the point? Who is Steward Ding? That is the steward of the Ding family. If he marries you, how dare the Dong family come to provoke you?"
"That makes sense," the third woman said jokingly: "Speaking of which, even if you want to marry again, only the steward of the Ding family in the entire Ding family will marry you, and he won't be afraid of the Dong family knocking on your door. . Just tell me, Brother Hao is decent in terms of status. There is no choice in terms of character. In terms of age, he is also a good match. He cares about you so much. If he really wants to marry you, he will definitely love you. You are young. Seriously, do you really plan to live like this for the rest of your life? Not to mention having such a naughty mother-in-law, it’s not going to be easy.”
Luo Dong'er was upset by what they said. She turned her back and said coyly: "Aunts, this is a good idea. Why are you nagging me? Is it okay if we don't talk about it?"
An aunt said: "Dong'er, Brother Hao is very sincere to you. You are so silent. What kind of regulations are you talking about? You should give me a reply, right? Manager Ding is even the old man. You don’t even want the yellow-flowered eldest daughter of the Liu family, but you want to marry you as a prostitute. Isn’t she worthy of you? You have to think carefully. If you miss this village, you won’t have this shop.”
Luo Dong'er felt a chill in her heart when she thought of the fierceness of her mother-in-law and the power of dozens of men in the Dong family. Then she heard her aunt talk about the girl from the Liu family. As soon as the words "old girl" fell into her ears, she suddenly felt inferior and pitied herself. : "Yes, I have such a wicked mother-in-law and a married woman, how can I be worthy of Ding Hao? Ding Hao, I heard that he is familiar with the county captain and General Guangyuan. If I really want to get married, I don’t have to ruin my family’s dignity. Besides, if my mother-in-law knew that I was determined to remarry, she wouldn’t beat me to death..."
Thinking of this, tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt lost in her heart. The needle in her hand suddenly pricked her fingertips, causing her to cry out in pain, and a bright red drop of blood came out...
"What's wrong, you girl, why are you sewing clothes with a lamp on your back..." An aunt hurriedly piled up clothes and came over. At this moment, there was a cough at the door, and Liu Shiyi's follower Wang Yu wandered in, dragging He said in a long voice: "You haven't slept yet?"
"Oh, has Manager Liu finished his drink? Let's go clean it up right now." The other two aunties stood up hurriedly.
"No hurry, no rush. Our Master Liu and Zhen Bao are having a good chat. Young lady of the Dong family, Master Liu said that you are good at cooking and asked you to give me some money. I don't think you should run around. Okay, you two are a little too drunk, so just look over there."
"Oh, let's go to the slave family right now." Luo Dong'er quickly piled up his clothes and followed him out of the tent.
Luo Dong'er arrived at Liu Shiyi's residence, stir-fried two more vegetables, heated up the pheasant stewed with mushrooms, and served it, then sat down on a small table at the door. Liu Shi and Zhen Bao were just chatting happily, and when he saw her move, he said : "Miss Dong, what are you doing sitting there?"
Luo Dong'er stood up and said: "The slave family is here to take care of you, so you can get hot food at any time."
Liu Shiyi waved his hand and said: "It's late at night, it's very inconvenient for a woman like you. Zhen Baozheng and I still have a lot to talk about. We're going to drink for a long time, so you should go back first."
Luo Dong'er responded, turned around and walked out. The two brothers Wang Yu and Wang Yi who were guarding the door looked at each other with a sinister smile on their faces. Wang Yu coughed lightly and said: "Ms. Dong, I'll see you off."
You."
Luo Dong'er responded, thanked him and walked ahead, carefully identifying the road under the moonlight. Just after taking a few steps, Wang Yu saw that there was no one around him, so he swooped up and covered Luo Dong'er's mouth.
Luo Donger was so frightened that she struggled hard. Wang Yi jumped up next to her, strangled her mouth with a towel, tied her hands, and put her into a sack. The two of them lifted the sack and sneaked in quickly.
Quiet moonlight...
