Hearing the report, Emperor Chengjia glanced at the sundial subconsciously, and wondered: "Didn't you just come back from there? What to send?"
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Third Highness was sent here."
Emperor Chengjia squinted his eyes: "Bring it up."
"Yes."
In a moment, Xi Zheng's article was delivered to him.
"Mencius" is a Confucian classic handed down to the world, which records Mencius's thoughts and strategies for governing the country, and advocates the implementation of benevolent governance. Ordinary people's analysis of "Mencius" is nothing more than an extension of the word "benevolence".
Xi Zheng doesn't.
He talked about the shortcomings of "benevolence". In order to make it clear, he even translated the criminal law..
“Benevolence" is thought, "law" is means, and both benevolence and law are the long-term way.
Thousands of miles away, but more weight. Emperor Chengjia nodded again and again, couldn't help but look back and watch it again. When he finished, he asked Derry: "What book did Lao-San read recently?"
Deshun hurriedly stepped forward: "Report to the emperor. I heard that the third highness asked Si Ji to get the full set of "Criminal Laws."
"That's right." Emperor Chengjia cursed with a smile, "I said how good the punishment is related to the criminal law." After a pause, he directly asked the eunuch of the article this time, "Does Lao-San know anything wrong?"
Kneeling down was Xi Zheng's personal eunuch An Rui. Hearing the question, he squatted and said in horror: "Your Majesty, the Third Highness did not leave a message."
Emperor Chengjia frowned: "What about others?"
"Report to your Majesty..." An Rui closed his eyes and lowered his head, "Sandian went down to Siji."
Emperor Chengjia was stunned, then looked at the manuscript in his hand, and laughed immediately: "Okay, okay! It's my son!" To write such an insightful article, those Hanlin academic teachings are indeed true. Very boring.
The implication is that this article has passed. An Rui was greatly relieved immediately.
"Okay, no matter what you should learn, you still have to learn. Go back and let your Highness listen carefully."
"Yes."
At that time, Xi Zheng had already tossed the carved movable type wooden blocks in Si Ji, preparing for trial printing...
::::::
Zhu Yuan, far away in Wu County, is not idle either.
During this period, she not only rented the shop, but also refurbished the shop-bought lime and mixed it into slurry to paint the walls, the doors and windows were replaced with new ones, and the furnishings and furniture in the house were re-made according to her design , And then buy the ingredients.. Before opening the store, I spent my money completely, almost unable to even hit the sign.
Even the furniture or the like was tossed with the help of home craftsmen.
The budget is not enough, even the chefs and waiters can only borrow from home.
The chef also has to cook for her parents, Didi sister. Zhu Yuan wants to make something that is not difficult, so they don’t even look for the chef. They go straight to the kitchen and find a few more honest chefs. Slave, Maid, this man is alive.
During the renovation process over there, personnel training began here. At the same time, I bought some cotton cloth of the same color at my own expense, and let people sew them into uniform aprons.
In addition, she has to copy the county chronicles every day, and she is so busy that she hasn't noticed that dog eggs have rarely appeared recently..
Busy talking, finally arrived the day of opening the shop.
Finally inspecting the situation in the store, Zhu Yuan took a deep breath: "Open the door!"
"Yes!"
Several clean and tidy servants in uniform aprons walked out. Two of them took gongs and walked towards the downtown area of East Street. They stood at the door in a posture.
"Qiangqiang!"
"Boom boom boom!"
The gongs and drums sounded in unison.
The spiritual guy specially selected by Zhu Yuan opened his throat and yelled: "Defu Food Store has opened —"
"Boom, boomerang!"
"Today's Defu Food Store opens a big bargain, all products are 50% off, all products are 50% off! You can't buy 50% off if you lose money, you can't be fooled! Uncle Bo Big-Brother Big-Master Shumu Big-Niang A-Yi, sister, go Don’t miss it when you pass by. Go into the store and take a look. Hey "
Outside the door, Zhu Yuan, who was hiding in the back kitchen, was also very nervous. After a while, he raised the curtain and looked out.
Xia Zhi was funny and helpless: "Miss, they just went out." location of their shop is also a bit off, how can it be so easy to attract——
"Come!" Zhu Yuan whispered and turned back, "Hurry up, get ready."
"Yes!" everyone in the kitchen answered.
This is the end of the time. Stepping into June, it is already very hot. Today is the big sun again, the sun is shining brightly, and it is heating up.
However, no matter how hot it is, the pawnbrokers still have to run around.
It coincided with the meal. Since the newly opened Defu Food Store had a 50% discount, pedestrians on the road heard the news.
As soon as you enter the door, there are two pots of green plants half a person tall, and then there are bright white walls, with open doors and windows, and the room is very bright.
The tables and chairs in the room are all light-colored tung oil, light wood color, neither carving nor decoration, very simple.
But the people who enter the store don't feel simple.
There are many green plants with vines hanging on the four walls. There are also many small potted plants on the light-colored tables. Every few tables, there are also a few pot-bellied round cylinders with a few pieces of duckweed floating on it.
It is full of greenery, full of vitality, just like being in a mountain jungle, but it is quite elegant, not at all rugged and messy.
In the summer, entering such a house, the whole person feels relieved a lot.
The two men who came in the lead breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
A head-Miss greeted them and blessed them: "Welcome, where do you want to sit?"
This Miss was wearing an emerald green over-the-knee bib, exactly the same as the buddies who beat gongs and drums outside. It must be a guy from this food store.
It was the first time that the two men encountered such a serious greeting, and the decoration of the shop was really unusual, and they were a little nervous.
After looking at each other, one of the guys stammered and asked: "I heard that your stuff here is 50% off..."
Seeing that he couldn't say anything, another man hurriedly interjected: "Is the stuff expensive here? If it is too expensive, we can't afford it." They came for a 50% discount.
"Guests can rest assured that the dishes here are diverse, ranging from a few pennies to dozens of pennies. portions are generous and the price is affordable. With the addition of 50% off the opening, those who can eat can also rest assured."
The two breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's OK, let's sit there."
Little Miss followed them and took out a few thin wood chips from the front pocket of the apron and handed them over: "Look at what to eat, you two."
The guy on the left took it and saw that a simple line pattern was drawn on it, and there are several circles under each picture.
Without waiting for him to ask questions, Little-Miss introduced: "This is our shop's menu. Each pattern represents the same food. circle below represents the price, and one circle is a penny."
The man understood in seconds, and hurriedly asked his companions to come over and check.
"Does this mean noodles?"
"This is fried noodles. There is nothing behind it. It is vegetarian fried noodles. By the way, no matter what staple food is ordered, it will be served with soup."
"Example soup?" man was at a loss.
"Our shop will boil a big pot of soup every day, and a bowl of staple food will be served."
"Oh, it's so good, it's so good!" man nodded repeatedly, "Then give me a portion of fried noodles-eh, is the price before or after half-folding?"
"Big-Brother, this is before the discount. For dinner today, we will get a 50% discount on the above price!"
Another guy's eyes lit up and he Called, "Then give me two fried noodles!"
Little Miss was too happy: "Big-Brother won't you look at other things in our shop? Just eating noodles is too monotonous?"
The two of them thought about it, and hurriedly looked through other cards.
"Eh, what is this?"
Little Miss glanced at the probe and smiled: "Yes, this is dessert. From top to bottom, there are plum soup, mung bean soup, red bean soup, and herbal tea for relieving heat." After a pause, she pursed her lips.
“Herbal tea is bitter. If the two Big-Brothers are not getting angry, don't order this."
"Okay, we listen to you." man on the left said readily, "Then have an egg fried noodle, and add a mung bean soup."
"me too!"
"Okay, two egg fried noodles, two mung bean soup." Little-Miss took out a notebook, swiped it a few times, tore off a list of strange things and handed it to them, "You keep this list. Now, when you are finished, you can take the bill and go to the counter at the door to check out."
The man on the left was worried, and asked again: "How much is the total cost?"
"One dish of fried noodles is worth ten cents, and one part of mung bean soup is four cents. Two copies each are twenty-eight cents, and the folded is fourteen cents."
"Okay! Hahaha, let the kitchen do it!"
"Okay, two Big-Brothers wait a minute!"
..
This scene appeared in every corner of the shop.
Fresh decorations, diverse ingredients, cheap prices... Maid servants that Zhu Yuan borrowed from home are all busy, and there are even long queues outside the store.
Zhu Yuan ran to the door and swung around, and quickly asked people to deliver a bamboo tube of fresh soy milk to the people who lined up at the door. It's a hot day, soy milk is not durable and not expensive, so it's just right to send guests.
It was a hot day, and some people who heard that they were waiting in line were preparing to leave. After being given a cup of sweet soy milk, they were immediately embarrassed and stayed.
Then there was Little-Miss who came to apologize to them, saying that if you can't wait, you can order it outside and take it away. price is the same. Some people in a hurry just order and pack..
After dinner, the people Calling outside changed their lines to promote afternoon tea, snacks, and drinks...
On the first day when Shenshi opened, the ingredients Zhu Yuan prepared were sold out immediately after Shenshi.
After returning home, Zhu Yuan started to settle accounts without taking a break.
Excluding artificial and food materials, today I earn a full 816 articles!
This is the income after a 50% discount!
Zhu Yuan is excited!
【 Goo Dan Goo Dan! I make money! see it? A full eight hundred and sixteen texts! ! Hahahaha There are nearly one or two in a day, I'm going to post! ! 】
【 Or else, you should study the criminal law 】
Xi Zheng, who was far away in the capital, had a rare sympathy.
Zhu Yuan:? ?
What do you mean?
Zhu would like to react soon, this guy is mocking her for making too little!
Is it tolerable or unbearable!
【 More than 800 texts a day, two or threes per month, at least food and clothing is not a problem, I am not greedy. 】
She was humble and humble, and then mocked,
【 However, you, an old man who has worked hard for many years, must look down on these 800 texts. I don't know how much money you have only made, but I admire you by saying it. 】
Dead guy, don't pretend that the old man wants to take advantage of her, dare to laugh at the fruits of her hard work?
As a result, the Dog-Egg brother directly ignored her words and pulled the topic back to the eight hundred words:
【 According to you, these 800-odd essays are your first income. past thirty years... 】
The vigorous brush calligraphy stopped here.
Although the words are not finished, the meaning of the word has been reached.
Zhu Yuan was choked to vomit blood and could only lie to himself:
【 Thanks to the protection of our ancestors, there is still a bit of Hakuta living in the family. 】
After speaking, I was still angry, and couldn't help but stab again.
【 Furthermore, I am still young, with countless possibilities, unlike some people. 】
A lot of age, I'm afraid I will have to land in a few years.
Some people who claim to be a lot of age: ..
Peppa and Dog-Egg's second online tearing X, Dog-Egg KO!
::::::
After sorting out the store revenues, Zhu Yuan will of course take credits in front of major shareholders.
Zhang Jingshu took her thin sheet of paper, glanced at it, raised her eyebrows, and praised: "It's pretty good, you can earn so much when you just opened the business." If you can do this every day, you can earn a couple of moneys a month. Thirty two, the number is not small.
Zhu Yuan smiled openly.
"However," Zhang Jingshu turned around and began to pour cold water, "This is your first day of business, and the discount is large. Good business is inevitable. Watch for a few more days to see how it works."
Zhu Yuan nodded: "I know, in the future, there will definitely not be as many customers as today, but the profits will come up." She chuckled, "I have other tricks, keep it for a few days and pay back!"
Zhang Jingshu frowned upon hearing this: "You can't go through crooked ways and kidnapping."
Zhu Yuan nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, Dad is still the magistrate, I won't lose his reputation——"
Zhang Jingshu knocked on her forehead: "Regardless of whether your father is the county magistrate or not, people in our family can't do such a thing."
"Got it!" Zhu Yuan clutched his weak and weak points.
Zhang Jingshu gave up and looked at the line frame she drew again: "It's very easy for you to keep your account like this at a glance."
"This is the revenue form, fill in the various expenses, and you can see at a glance whether you have earned or lost." In fact, it is the handwritten version of EXCEL.
Zhang Jingshu picked it up again and looked at it again, and then smiled: "When the business in the shop is straightened out, come back and help me get a similar one so that I can manage the accounts at home."
"it is good!"
Zhang Jingshu asked about the shop again, and Zhu Yuan answered one by one.
It was not until Zhu Xiuqi came back that they stopped talking.
Zhu Yuan has been tossing outside for a few days, and now things are on the right track, she relaxes her whole body, and halfway through dinner, she starts to yawn again and again.
Zhu Xiuqi glanced at her several times, and finally couldn't help it, frowning and said: "If you are too busy, leave it to your subordinates. You will be better within a few months. What if you are tired and sick anymore?" worry was beyond words. .
Zhu Yuan hurriedly put down the hands that covered the yawn, and sits down tightly and said: "I will pay attention." She still remembers how weak she was when she first came here, but she didn't dare to mess around.
Zhu Xiuqi scowled: "Don't forget your homework."
Zhu Yuan stuck out his tongue: "I see."
Zhang Jingshu picked Zhu Xiuqi chopsticks and dishes, and said softly: "Eating, don't teach your children at this time."
Zhu Xiuqi gave up and talked about other things: "Because Yuanyuan was ill a few days ago, I have not been free. Now we are stable in Wuxian. You can find a time and we will have a banquet and eat with local officials. For dinner, you make more friends, and occasionally you can drop by."
Zhang Jingshu nodded: "Okay."
The matter was settled.
Zhu Yuan didn't take it to heart. After dinner, she took a break, then washed and rested.
Sleep well all night.
The next day, Zhu Yuan woke up early in the morning-she said, her current schedule is much better than in her previous life.
There is no mobile phone, computer, no night entertainment, plus oil lamps and candles are not well lit, and reading is tiring. Now she has gone to the countryside to do what she has to do. She works at sunset and sunrise every day.
Because of this, she doesn't need an alarm clock at all every morning, she can get up at one point.
After freshening up, she had breakfast from the Xia Zhi, walked two laps in the yard, and ran to practice :Qin.
The original body has been learning the zheng for three or four years. Perhaps he is not interested in musical instruments. He is a little tired and low-level. Zhu Yuan stole the bargain. With some memories in his head, he slowly picked it up.
Besides, the original body has been ill for more than half a year, it is normal to have regression.
Now that she is practicing diligently for more than an hour every day, she should not be able to hear much difference.
After Zhu Yuan finished playing a piece of music, he walked through the fingering again, right to relax.
"Yes, the strength is up." Zhang Jingshu's voice suddenly came.
Zhu Yuan turned his head and looked around. Zhang Jingshu was standing at the door with a smile, Yinhuan Concubine and her Didi Mei-Mei also followed.
"Mother, Concubine." Zhu Yuan hurriedly got up and saluted, "Why are you here?"
"Sister!" Without waiting for Zhang Jingshu to speak, Zhu Tingfang slipped in, grabbing Zhu Yuan's sleeves and urging, "Mother said to take us out for dinner today!"
Zhu Yuan was surprised.
Zhang Jingshu said: "Didn't your store opened yesterday? It's free today, let's go check it out and show you something."
Zhu Yuan blinked and was happy: "Okay, just remember to pay!"
Zhang Jingshu smiled: "Look at you stingy."
"I'm a small business, I haven't paid back yet!"
Yinhuan joked: "If it doesn't taste good, we won't pay."
"It's all made by our chef, how can it not taste good!"
..
The group headed to Defu Food Store in mighty force.
It was still morning, and there were few customers in the shop.
When Zhang Jingshu entered the door, they were all a little surprised.
Bright and bright, full of greenery, at first glance it is a bit plain and elegant, without the "fast food" feeling in Zhu Yuan's mouth.
Seeing them come in, Maid servants with emerald bibs in the shop hurriedly came to salute.
Zhang Jingshu waved her hand, let them go to work on their own, and then slowly walked into the store.
Zhu Tingfang rushed in and Called, "Sister, it's so cool here."
Zhu Yuan didn't stop him either-anyway, the shop was full of subordinates, and most of them were watching, not afraid that he would fall.
Zhang Jingshu asked Zhu Yuan: "Why do you get so many flowers and plants in, aren't you afraid of getting mosquitoes?"
"I have a medicine bag on every window." Zhu Yuan disapproved, "Put some green plants to cool down." Both visually and physically.
Zhang Jingshu nodded.
"Will the water tank also cool down?" Zhu Ying followed with curiosity.
"Of course, not only does it cool down, but it also fires." They are all wood-structured houses, and there is always no mistake in preparing water. Zhu Yuan turned around, "Mother, shall we sit down and have a bite to eat?"
Zhang Jingshu looked around: "Where is the wing room?"
Zhu Yuan casually said: "The place is small and there is no wing room."
Zhang Jingshu frowned: "Where will the female family eat?"
Zhu Yuan "Ah" said: "It's all in the lobby?" She even forgot about the men and women of this era! ! She scratched her head, "No wonder all the men who came in yesterday to eat were men." women were all packed away.
Zhang Jingshu was amused, and touched her head: "You have done a good job, and it is normal to have some omissions."
Zhu Yuan was frustrated: "Then what should I do today?" At the moment, few guests are good to say, but as soon as the meal arrives, when the guests increase, her mother will definitely be uncomfortable-her mother and Concubine are used to guarding against men and women. I can't change it rashly, and the rice won't taste good.
“Why don't you pack it back?"
Zhang Jingshu smiled and said, "That's not necessary." Turning around and instructing Lu Chang, "There should be a few idle screens in the warehouse. Go and get someone to get it."
"Yes."
Zhu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he put his arms around Zhang Jingshu: "Thank you, mother!" It was meant to be used by her!
Zhang Jingshu touched her head: "Okay, let's take a look at the menu in your shop first."
Picking a table by the window at random, Zhang Jingshu took a close look at the menu sign and asked if he didn't understand, and finally discussed a few things with Yinhuan.
Zhu Yuan thought for a while and changed a few things: "These things are meant to be quick and full. Let's not miss the money. Let's eat fresh ones."
Zhang Jingshu was naturally left to her.
While waiting for the meal, Zhu Tingfang and Zhu Ying had already left their seats and sprinkled around, and Yinhuan had also moved to the water tank to watch the duckweed and small fish. Zhang Jingshu talked to Zhu Yuan about the layout and operation of the store..
Soon, the drink was delivered.
Looking at the few cups of drinks in front of him with some yellowish-brown drinks, Zhang Jingshu was surprised: "So fast? What is this?"
Zhu Yuan laughed and explained in a low voice, "This is milk tea. milk and tea are prepared in advance, and the guests only need to reconcile them after ordering."
Zhang Jingshu realized it after thinking about it: "Everything else is the same?"
"That's not the case. Soups, desserts, and some snacks are prepared in advance. For other fresh-fried fresh-cooked products, the ingredients will be prepared in advance. If a customer orders it, it will be done as soon as it is served."
"This is really fast."
Yinhuan, who had just returned, followed up with a compliment: "Big-Miss is so ingenious."
Zhu Yuan laughed guilty. What is her ingenuity, she just stood on the shoulders of giants and borrowed from the modern tea restaurant model.
After a while, other dishes were delivered one after another. Liangpi, fried noodles with egg, patted cucumber, marinated dried tofu, and even skin jelly...
The taste is not so good, it is better than novelty. Daren was upside down. two children were so happy to eat, especially the bowl of cold skin. They almost licked the bottom of the bowl.
There were more guests, and Zhang Jingshu and the two were uncomfortable at first, and the screens at home were delivered.
Pulling up the screen, the group slowly ate and drank milk tea, focusing mostly on the guests outside.
"Miss, let's have egg fried rice."
"Come on with Liangpi!"
"I want cold noodles with milk tea!"
"Checked out!"
..
One after another, lively.
Zhang Jingshu returned with satisfaction, of course, did not forget to check out before leaving.
Zhu Yuan thought that this was just an inspection of the opening of the major shareholder, so they turned around and left it behind.
Therefore, when she received the task assigned by Zhang Jingshu, she was a little dumbfounded.
"What? Let me draw up the dishes and arrange the division of labor?"
Zhang Jingshu smiled dignified and softly: "I think your shop is doing a good job. I think this little thing will not trouble you."
Zhu Yuan couldn't believe it: "Mother, I'm only ten years old." In modern times, this is a proper squeeze of child labor!
"It takes more work for those who are able." Zhang Jingshu patted her head, "If anyone doesn't listen to you, you will throw people into the food store to be a waiter." term waiter is still learned from Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan mumbled: "I think they are all eager to go there." servants who went to work at Defu Shizhan, in addition to receiving the monthly silver in the mansion, can also receive a portion from her-even if not much, It's also money,
Zhang Jingshu didn't take it seriously: "Then the other way round, if anyone does a good job, let them go to the food store to work and get the double pay." What a big deal.
.. You are really good-natured-wrong. Zhu Yuan suddenly thought of a question.
"Mother, I open a shop to make money..." She was cautious, "Will you pay me?"
Zhang Jingshu was surprised: "Didn't you let you use it to practice your hands? If you lose money, I won't make you lose money. How come you still ask me to pay for it?"
Zhu Yuan: ..
Yes, she is not only child labor, but also free.
The hope of earning pocket money was shattered, and Zhu Yuan's whole person was depressed.
Zhang Jingshu has already turned back to talk to Yinhuan: "Last time we had the banquet, we were still new to the party. Even Lao-Ye was caught blindly, and the banquet was held politely. Now Lao-Ye has roughly understood the situation in Wuxian. It should be easier in response."
Yinhuan Meifeng frowned: "Fu-ren, or I won't come out this time?"
Zhang Jingshu smiled and cursed: "Lao-Ye is the only two of us in the backyard, do you want to be lazy?"
Yinhuan waved her hand hurriedly: "Fu-ren misunderstood." She sighed, "Every time I go out to meet guests, I always panic in my heart, for fear that any guest may not be able to greet him. If I accidentally annoy someone, it will break Lao What can I do about Ye?"
Zhang Jingshu was speechless: "You have a temperament." It is precisely because of Yinhuan's timidity that she would push it to Zhu Xiuqi, so as to block the mouth of the main house and not mess up the house.
“Don't worry, as Lao-Ye, they have to let us on the surface, as long as we don't make a big mistake, we don't worry."
Yinhuan still frowned.
Zhu Yuan looked around and asked, "Mother, are you worried that you can't take care of all the guests?"
Zhang Jingshu looked over at the same time.
"Ahem. I have a suggestion." Zhu Yuan scratched his cheeks.
“We can change the way we eat."
Zhang Jingshu looked at each other.
Zhu Yuan introduced the modern buffet model.
Zhang Jingshu clapped his hands: "Okay, you draw up a menu first, and we will do it again tomorrow to see if it works."
Zhu Yuan: ..
My mother, she just hilariously, why did she give her extra work suddenly?
Not paid yet.
"Mother, isn't it right to leave such a big thing to me? Besides, when I'm still young, how do I know what dishes—"
Zhang Jingshu waved her hand: "It's okay to try, just treat it as your own family." She smiled, "The dishes in your shop are quite ingenious. You can take out a few to make this and this buffet, and I believe you can handle it. of."
Even Yinhuan pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes, that milk tea is delicious, I think it can be added."
"I prefer Liangpi. It's hot. Eating this kind of cold silk ribbon has a bit of sour and spicy flavor. It relieves heat and appetite."
The two started a lively discussion about the dishes and drinks of Defu Food Store.
Zhu Yuan: ..
What can she say?
The deal is done, Zhu Yuan has nothing to say, and can only drag his tired body away.
Since her mother has already sent a message, she won't be able to escape tomorrow.
She looked at the sky, estimated the time, decided not to go to the store today, and quickly worked out the dishes to be practiced tomorrow, and let the kitchen prepare in advance.
The cold brewed green tea, milk tea, and licorice herbal tea can be taken care of by both men and women.
Well, maybe there are children, add soy milk and sour plum soup.
Cold dishes are diversified. Pat cucumbers, capers, cold potato shreds, cold tofu shreds and so on. There are more meats. Salt-baked chicken, soy sauce chicken, barbecued pork, braised pork, pork ears in red oil... all can be made into cold dishes.
Have to get some hot dishes.
Two kinds of stew, two kinds of dry pot, two kinds of soup, plus some pastries, melons and fruits...
Shouldn't we be alive? Zhu Yuan stared at the list of dishes he made. Next, it's time to consider the set-up and placement.
Zhu Yuan lifted the paper, put it on the side, and put it down with a paperweight——
and many more.
These days, it seems that there are very few dog eggs.. Is it disconnected?
Zhu Yuan scratched his head, took out a piece of rice paper again, and swiped:
【 Dog-Egg, are you there? 】
::::::
Capital.
Taking advantage of the absence of Brother Peppa, who was talkative and gossiping in the morning, Xi Zheng stayed in the study and read quietly.
"Tuk Tuk" rang softly.
Xi Zheng didn't raise his head: "Come in." He turned a page of paper and continued reading.
An Rui pushed the door in and bowed. Before Xi Zheng called out, he quickly stepped forward and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness, the Ministry of Engineering has passed a word over and said it is done."
During these days, Xi Zheng ran to the Ministry of Engineering every three to five, which shows the degree of concern for this matter. Therefore, he did not dare to delay when he received the news, and immediately reported it.
as expected.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Zheng paused as he turned the book, changed his lazy posture, sits up straight, and asked, "When did the news come?"
"Just sent it." An Rui whispered, "Nucai knows that His Royal Highness is thinking, and he came here without delay."
"Good." Xi Zheng put down the book, got up and walked out.
An Rui is busy keeping up.
Traveling hurriedly all the way, I soon came to the Ministry of Engineering compound located southeast of the palace.
The Daren of the Engineering Department who went to work in the front yard of Changzai didn't know where they went. They were empty, except for a few scavengers.
Xi Zheng didn't care, and went straight to the backyard of the Ministry of Engineering.
Just after the second door, the noise came to my ears.
"Really strong!"
"Bring water to get water, try watering."
"It doesn't count, let Old Chen go for a jump. Old Chen is the strongest. Maybe he will break if he steps on it."
"Fall, try it!"
..
Talking about each other.
Then, a group of figures in official uniforms came into view.
Xi Zheng raised his eyebrows and slowed down.
Someone had sharp eyes and Called: "The Third Hall is down!"
Shattered, the group of people instantly turned back to salute him.
Xi Zheng waved his hand: "No need to be polite." He passed them and walked to a gray-headed young man, "What's the result?"
The excited young man pointed to a square gray stone on the ground, and said excitedly: "It's successful, Your Highness, it's really successful."
Xi Zheng lowered his head to look at the stone, and at the end he simply squatted down and stroked up——
There was still water vapor on the stone, and there were many whitish marks on the corners. tentacles were slightly cool, pressed hard, the stone did not move, and the fingers hurt.
The young man Baba leaned over and said with excitement: "I have soaked in the water for a day and a night, and I have fallen many times, except for a few bumps, but not a piece of gravel." His voice began to tremble, "Follow that. Hard slate is no different!"
Someone was puzzled and said casually: "Since it is no different from a stone, why bother to use the stone instead of "
Before he finished speaking, he was grabbed by the people next to him.
The man lost a look at Xi Zheng, who was in deep thought, and the speaker immediately shrank his neck and fell silent.
Xi Zheng didn't hear what they were muttering at all. He pondered for a moment, then asked the young man: "Is the finished product in powder form?"
"Yes." young man nodded hurriedly, "The color is dark and dusty, and water is enough."
"How long does it take to shape?"
"One day is enough."
"Okay." Xi Zheng's face was calm, "You will try again and mix it with sand and gravel, and measure the ratio of the most saving cement."
The young man didn't seem to be surprised by this, and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll try it now." After speaking, he turned his head and ran away.
Everyone looked at each other.
Zuo Shi Lang, the highest-ranking Ministry of Industry on the court, hurriedly pleaded guilty to Xi Zheng: "Hui Qing has a straight-forward temperament and is impolite. I hope your Highness will bear it."
Xi Zheng waved his hand: "Nothing." Then he said farewell to them, "I have something else, Daren invited." Then, in the dumb eyes of the crowd, Daren hurriedly left.
Just as he came in a hurry.
Back to Prince courtyard against the big sun, Xi Zheng went straight into the study.
Before I had time to speak, a line of crooked dog crawling appeared on the books spread out on the table——
【 Dog-Egg, are you there? Squeak if you are. 】
Xi Zheng was dumb and waved An Rui who fanned him: "Make tea."
Drinking hot tea after a sweat? An Rui hesitated a little.
Xi Zheng's eyes were swept away, he immediately struck a spirit, and Ying retired.
Xi Zheng then retracted his gaze, took a piece of paper at random, and said:
【 Cement can be used to repair bridges and pave roads. Can we build dikes to prevent floods? 】 】
【 what! Dog-Egg, you finally came out! ! I haven't seen you for many days, I thought it was disconnected! ! 】
What is disconnection? Xi Zheng understood it at the first thought, and casually explained:
【 busy these days 】
Then urge her,
【 Answer question 】
【 Oh oh, what's the problem? 】
Xi Zheng's forehead jumped and asked again.
【 You said this.. Of course it is possible. If cement can't build a dam, there is nothing to block the water. 】
Zhu Yuan sighed thinking of the flood that he had experienced in the previous life.
【 As long as we don’t cut corners, we also insist on maintenance every year to prevent loopholes. It’s not a problem to spend ten or eight years. 】
【 Since it's strong, why repair it? 】
【 Cement is made by mixing water and mud, and bubbles are prone to appear in the process. These bubbles are not a problem when used in normal times, such as building roads and houses. But the dam is blocking water. What is water, it can rush you out of the gullies seamlessly. How can it be possible that there will be no problems? dike of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant's nest. If these bubbles were broken by the current, it would be only a matter of time before the dike broke. Therefore, if the dam is to be repaired, it must be repaired and inspected annually to prevent accidents. 】
Zhu Yuan wrote a lot of words, thought about it, and added another sentence.
【 Also to prevent cutting corners. 】
【 how do I say this 】
【 Let me make an analogy. Assuming that one side of silt and gravel should be equipped with one side of cement to make it strong, some people in the process reduce the amount of cement in order to reduce the amount of cement, resulting in two sides of silt and gravel with only one side of cement, which is naturally greatly reduced. 】
Xi Zheng stared at her dog crawling words and fell into deep thought. He seemed to have figured out something. He rolled up the written paper, threw it into the brazier by the table, and turned and walked outside.
【 .. Dog eggs? ! 】
【 How can it be repaired! He ran away again! ! 】
..
Yushufang.
After hearing Xi Zheng's intention, Emperor Chengjia stopped writing in surprise, frowned and asked, "What are you going to do in Luzhou?"
Xi Zheng looked back at him calmly: "The flood season in Luzhou is approaching this year, and Er-chen is going to treat the water."
What they call Luzhou is located in the lower reaches of the Lujiang River. Years of floods will destroy the fields along the river, while the large ones stretch for hundreds of miles, and the villages and villages are destroyed, making local people miserable.
Dayan allocates funds for flood prevention every year, but if he fails to cure it, Emperor Chengjia is also a headache. Now that Xi Zheng said he would go to Luzhou to treat water, he naturally didn't believe it.
"You are young, and you haven't even been to the capital a few times. How to control the water? Don't go!"
"What if Er-chen can do it?"
Emperor Chengjia was not angry: "You haven't even figured out the Four Books and Five Classics, what can you do?"
Xi Zheng looked at him directly and insisted: "What if Er-chen can do it?"
Emperor Chengjia knocked on the table and hummed: "If you can persuade those Lao-tou from the Ministry of Engineering, I will let you go."
Xi Zheng curled the corners of his lips and smiled and said, "A word is definite."
The next day.
Emperor Chengjia stared at the bright moiré floor of the Yushufang a few stones on it, with a solemn expression: "Really?"
Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry stood up and said: "Weichen dare not deceive, this method is really strong."
"How does it cost?"
The Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry seems to have calculated it a long time ago, and Zhangkou said: "The same size, slightly less expensive than quarrying, and easy to transport, whether it is for bridge and paving, or for flood prevention, it is more convenient and faster than quarrying."
"Good! Good!" Emperor Chengjia nodded repeatedly, "If so—"
Xi Zheng took a step forward: "Father."
"Ok?"
"When is it better for Er-chen to leave?"
Emperor Chengjia was stunned, and under his sign he glanced at Shang Shu of the Ministry of Industry——
.. Brat, I was waiting here.
Naturally, Zhu Yuan didn't know what was going on in the capital.
She is busy with the banquet right now.
All the dishes have been tested the day before. After tasted by Zhang Jingshu and Yinhuan, they eliminated the pork ears in red oil, replaced the cold dish with lo-mei, and replaced a few hot dishes with the more popular local dishes.
There are also places for the banquet.
For the buffet, the most important thing is the placement and environment.
Zhu Yuan went through all the places in the house and chose the big garden at the back.
She didn't do the layout directly, but made the plan first.
The planning diagram directly and clearly shows the dining area, beverage area, dish area, etc., and even hand-cleaning area and toilet.
In addition, she also made detailed floor plans for each area.
Zhang Jingshu turned over the layout drawing intently, and Yinhuan couldn't help but be speechless: "Big-Miss, are you painting these?"
Zhu Yuan proudly: "Of course, isn't it very clear?"
Yinhuan nodded: "It's clear that it's better than saying anything." She glanced at the drawing again, curious, "What did you paint with? It doesn't look like a brush."
"The charcoal bars used. I went to the kitchen and turned them over."
The silver ring was dumb.
Zhang Jingshu also saw about it, and raised her head: "Are you planning to put together the male and female banquet tables?"
"Actually, it's not put together," Zhu Yuan probed, pointing to the drawing and told her in detail, "There are screens added here, and the dining table and dining area are also placed on both sides. There is no overlap, at most it can be seen. How far."
Zhang Jingshu meditated: "Why is this arrangement necessary?"
"Huh?" Zhu Yuan scratched his head, "Because the front yard is too small and the landscape is not good."
Zhang Jingshu: ... I thought it had a special meaning.
Zhu Yuan saw her look complicated and weak: "Isn't this buffet just better for outdoor attractions..."
Too. Zhang Jingshu smiled and said, "It's still cool."
Zhu Yuan nodded repeatedly.
This official residence has been around for some years. green plants in the yard are lush and lush, and there are a few tall banyan trees in the backyard. Half of the garden is caged under it. Even if the sun is big, the yard is much cooler. If it is windy , It's more comfortable.
It is precisely because of this that when Zhu Yuan proposed to have a buffet outdoors, Zhang Jingshu did not immediately object.
Now that she has tasted the dishes and has such a clear layout, she thought for a while and decided to make it.
Soon, the day for the banquet arrived.
The sky is clear and fresh, and the wind is sunny. It is a good day for banquets.
Just after Si, Zhu's family welcomed the first wave of guests, a few wealthy gentry from Wu County.
Tian Qing, the housekeeper waiting at the door, led people directly into the courtyard.
After Zhang Jingshu's maid, the purple satin courtesy, also led these wealthy family members into the house.
Walking all the way, until the second door, the two did not intend to stop.
The leading wealthy gentry slowed down hesitantly.
Unexpectedly, purple satin also slowed down.
Fu-ren Miss all looked at her with their eyes.
Before she could speak, Tian Qing at the front reacted.
He slapped himself hurriedly, and apologized: "I blame me, Nucai didn't make it clear." Then he laughed, "It's hot this day, and the house is boring. We Fu-ren see the yard cool and the scenery Ye Yiren, so we set up the banquet there. We are on the same road as Miss Zidan, and we will separate when we get to the ground."
Just make a mistake. Everyone sighed lightly.
move on.
I walked slowly through the corridor through the courtyard, and soon came to the backyard shaded by trees.
Although they were the first wave of arrivals, the yard was not deserted. yard was divided into two halves with screens. maids and Nubi moved the tables back and forth, creating a busy scene.
Although I don't know what the hell is going on, it seems to be sitting separately. Everyone relaxes a lot.
Sure enough, as soon as he stepped in here, Tian Qing separated from Zidan, leading the male and female guests to each side of the screen.
Here is the northwest side of the house, with a row of banyan trees next to the roots of the wall, lush green, covering the sky.
Stepping into the shade of the trees, even the wind cools down a lot.
On the side of the female family, Zi Satin led the group to the destination. Tables and chairs have been set up here, one table with two chairs, one table with four chairs, scattered around, completely indistinguishable.
The purple damask blessed the body: "Fu-ren Miss, rest here for the time being, someone will bring tea soon." After that, she planned to leave-she had to continue to the door to welcome other guests.
One of the women bluffed, and hurriedly called her: "Miss, this, this, where should we sit?" Today's guests, none of them can be easily offended. How can this order of sitting be fooled? .
Zi Dan was stunned, glanced at the seats, suddenly realized, and hurriedly smiled to appease them: "Fu-ren, don't worry, today's seats are not ordered by priority, everyone can sit as they please." After that, she hurriedly left.
Everyone looked at each other.
The place is so big and the tables are scattered. You said the east is the first place. There is a table beside it. Who dares to sit? middle is the first place, right? tables in the middle look like...
Hesitating, Maid came with a team of Little-Maid.
"Fu-ren, Miss Ann." She smiled and blessed her body, "What would you like to drink?"
Everyone:?
This is a strange question, don’t you have tea if you come?
Then Maid continued: "We have cold brew tea, pearl milk tea, sour plum soup, soy milk, honey water, plum tea." He blinked and looked at them.
Everyone was still stunned.
No one spoke, Maid was at a loss.
A Little-Miss probed his head and glanced behind her, looked left and right, pulled the sleeves of the woman next to her, and whispered: "Mother, I want to drink plum tea."
The woman hadn't spoken yet, Maid's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly turned her head and said, "Hurry up and serve Miss plum tea."
"Yes." A Little-Maid immediately turned around and ran towards the shade of the screen.
Everyone's eyes moved accordingly, and only then did they notice that there were many long tables arranged in an orderly manner, and many Maids were coming and going, carrying things in their hands, and were putting them on the long tables one by one.
After a while, Little-Maid, who had just ran past, took out a tray with a bamboo tube-shaped cup placed on it, and walked cautiously.
When she reached the Little Miss who craned her neck and looked around, she stopped, feeling a little at a loss-these Fu-ren Miss didn't sit down, how could she serve tea?
Maid, the leader, is also a bit embarrassed, and is about to persuade again——
"What's the matter?" Zhu Yuan happened to arrange the work of the back kitchen, and came to see the venue. Seeing the situation, he hurried over.
The leading Maid breathed a sigh of relief and blessed himself: "Big-Miss."
Zhu Yuan waved his hands and saluted all Fu-ren Miss: "Fu-ren, sister, Mei-Mei An, my last name is Zhu, and I rank first in my family."
Everyone should still have some impressions of her, and they rushed to return gifts.
After that, Zhu Yuan asked: "But my servants are not sensible and bump into you?"
Fu-ren hurriedly waved their hands, shook their heads and said no, then two of them stood up and said something politely.
Zhu Yuan understood, and smiled: "Whether we sit at the table this time, everyone is fine." Before they could answer, she walked to the Little Miss who ordered a drink, smiled and pointed to the table behind her.
“Mei-Mei, sit down and taste my sister's plum tea, it tastes sour and sweet."
Little Yato looked at her, then at the woman next to her.
The woman couldn't help but blessed Zhu Yuan, took her to the table and sits down with her.
Little Maid, who was holding the plum tea, was greatly relieved, and hurriedly brought the bamboo cup to Little Miss, and then asked the woman in a soft voice, "Fu-ren, what would you like to drink?"
The woman hesitated.
Zhu Yuan smiled: "If Fu-ren is undecided, you can try our milk tea first, and change it if it doesn't suit your appetite."
"Okay." woman followed kindness, "A cup of milk tea."
"Yes."
Someone took the lead, and then it went better.
Zhu Yuan and others all took their seats and ordered their orders, and then went to another place to check the situation.
Here, tea and drinks had just been delivered, and the red silk led a group of people over.
Everyone was busy and stood up to bow.
They have been in Wuxian for many years and are familiar with them. After the salute, someone asked, "How is this man? Where do we sit?"
"Zhu's Big-Miss said, whatever you want."
".."
After finally sitting down, there is another chaotic order of drinks.
..
When Zhang Jingshu and the others came out, the venue was already heated up, and everyone was discussing their drinks enthusiastically. Some of them were bold, and even ordered a few cups of try.
After a busy salute, Zhang Jingshu randomly chose a table to sit down, Yin Huan sits opposite her, and Zhu Yuan took Zhu Yingdan to sit at the table.
Everyone saw that this family did not go to the east, nor did they sit in the middle. They only picked a place that was not four or six.. Look, it seems really random?
Before they could speak, Zhang Jingshu opened the scene with a smile: "Can our drinks be good?"
"He mouth and mouth." person who answered the conversation was Fu-ren from the county prime minister's family. She only joked, "There are so many names, and no matter how picky people are, there is nothing wrong with the mouth."
Everyone was amused.
"That's all right." Zhang Jingshu smiled, "We don't tidy up those stiff noodles today. If we want to eat and take it ourselves, we ask Yato to run errands if we are too lazy to work. Relax, and take it as a picnic."
These words were so thoughtless, everyone couldn't help thinking of the awkwardness when ordering a drink.
Zhang Jingshu didn't explain, but picked up a custom in Wuxian County and chatted with them.
Talking and laughing, and sipping a few sips of sweet, sour or sweet drinks from time to time, and Maid came over as soon as possible to ask whether to refill or change the drink... Time flies quickly.
Lu Shang, who was in charge of the food area, came to report that lunch was ready, and everyone stopped talking and looked at Zhang Jingshu together.
Zhang Jingshu stood up: "After chatting for a long time, I should be hungry. Let's have a meal."
Everyone responded with a smile, and several women gathered their skirts together and planned to get up.
Just listen to Zhang Jingshu continuing, "Go, let's go and see what's delicious, let's get some back, eat and talk." After speaking, he lifted his foot first.
Thinking of the weird way of serving tea, everyone hesitated a little, then kept up.
A group of people came to the long table in front of the screen.
As early as when they were chatting, the long table here was full of various pots, dishes, and chopsticks. Now, when they came closer, they found that there was a card standing on the long table covered with cotton cloth of various colors. A word, such as dim sum area, cold vegetable area, hot vegetable area..
Then there are various shallow pots or large bowls with lids. On each pot or bowl, there is a piece of paper pasted with the name of the dish?
Everyone was surprised.
Zhang Jingshu took the lead in picking up a plate from the side of the table, scanning his eyes, and walking towards the cold dish area, handing the plate to Maid on the side of the table, and said: "Come on with some braised tofu and shoot cucumber."
"Yes." Maid took the plate, opened two of the large bowls, put two pieces of braised tofu and a spoonful of cucumber on the plate, and handed it back to her respectfully.
Zhang Jingshu nodded in satisfaction, turned back with the dish, and smiled: "It's hot, I'll start with two cold dishes to start an appetizer. You are free." After that, she slowly returned to her position and took a seat.
Immediately, someone sent chopsticks, spoons, and small bowls.
Everyone: ..
What is this way of eating? Could it be that this is from the capital side?
As everyone knows, Zhu Yuan watching by is also full of despair.
In addition to rushing to pick the dishes, even the picking is executed by someone.. Why is this a buffet? ! !
Nondescript, tired.
Zhang Jingshu took the lead, and Yinhuan naturally followed, and he also dragged Zhu Yuan and Zhu Ying to discuss a few sentences, picked a few things, and returned to the seat to enjoy with Zhang Jingshu.
Everyone is not stupid. county magistrate’s family members have already taken the lead. They reacted immediately and followed one by one, learning from them to take the plates, and then scatter them around.
Seeing that the situation is almost the same, Zhang Jingshu put down his chopsticks and greeted Yinhuan: "Let's go, let's make up a little too." Then she told the Zhu and Yuan sisters, "You go take care of the Xiaojie sisters."
Zhu Yuan nodded, pulled Zhu Ying up, and moved away from them.
But after a while, the shade of the tree became lively.
"Fu-ren, do you like this too? I added it too."
"Yes, this dish in Wuxian County suits my heart very much. It's delicious."
"Everything is good, and the snacks look good, do you want to have some?"
"Don't worry, so much!"
"Oh, you pretend to be so much, have you finished eating?"
Zhu Yuan has become a master of answering questions.
"How did Mei-Mei make this milk tea?"
Zhu Yuan explained it briefly and advertised his shop by the way: "If you like it, you can go to the Defu Food Store at the end of East Street. It is my shop and sells milk tea in it."
The Little Miss looked at each other, and Little Miss was a little depressed: "Mother won't let me go out."
Zhu Yuan hurriedly said: "It's not a problem. There are bamboo cups for packing in the store, all of which are washed and dried."
"Okay, when I look back, I'll let someone buy it for me!"
She introduced drinks and dishes here, while Zhu Ying led several Little-Miss around the dim sum area.
The shade of the trees on the east and west sides is only separated by screens, and you can still detect the movement on the opposite side with a little attention.
When the laughter came, the men's area next door also heard it, and the voice was subconsciously softened.
Zhu Xiuqi, who was talking with others, noticed that he glanced over the table and suddenly said: "Look at me, forget all the business." He stood up and greeted everyone, "The hour is almost here, we should have dinner. Let’s relax today and have a buffet."
..
This painful buffet banquet for Zhu Yuan won unanimous praise from the guests.
The usual banquets are both restrained and boring. Not to mention the back pain after sitting for a long time, this kind of occasion is still uncomfortable to eat.
If it's cold in the weather and just say a few words, the dishes will freeze out and make people feel sick, let alone full.
Today, the banquet venue is in the garden. trees are shaded, the green grass is green, and the breeze is breezy, so cozy. You can choose from delicious food and drink.
This Zhu family is so considerate that even the drink seems to have been cooled in advance with the well water. It is cold and suitable for drinking on a hot day..
Really at home.
Not to mention anything else, the acclaimed guest just walked away, and Zhu Xiuqi, who was reserved and self-effacing, turned around and immediately grinned with white teeth.
He swept into the backyard like a gust of wind, and caught Zhu Yuan who was learning to clean up with Zhang Jingshu and exaggerated.
Zhu Yuan looked at Zhang Jingshu embarrassedly: "It's my mother who taught me well."
Zhang Jingshu smiled: "You don't need to be so humble here, no one can take your credit."
Zhu Yuan blinked. In this case... she whispered: "Can I have a reward?"
Zhu Xiuqi smiled more and more: "If you want any reward, let's listen."
Zhang Jingshu also raised her eyebrows to look at her.
"I, I want silver " Zhu Yuan quickly explained, seeing the two couples frowning, "I mean, the silver at Defushizhan." She pinched the corner of her clothes, pretending to be nervous. child's charming appearance mumbled, "Even if someone goes to work, I can get an extra monthly silver. Why do I have no monthly silver?"
Zhu Xiuqi was startled, Zhang Jingshu snorted: "Why are you still thinking about monthly silver every day?"
Zhu Yuan pursed his mouth: "I'm grown up, how can I be with no money?" kid pretends to be Daren or something, it's the cutest!
Zhang Jingshu was really amused.
Zhu Xiuqi hurriedly asked what was going on. Zhang Jingshu smiled and talked about Zhu Yuan's greed for money a few days ago. more he heard the former, the more he frowned: "Why pay attention to these foreign objects so much."
Zhu Yuan rolled his eyes secretly in his heart-without these extraneous things, do you think you can afford such a big family? Of course, on the face of it, she still pretended to be wronged: "Don't people have to eat anything outside of the body?"
Zhu Xiuqi was choked.
Zhang Jingshu couldn't laugh, and teased her: "There is no shortage of food or clothing for you at home."
Zhu Yuan categorically said: "We can ignore money, but we must never lose it!"
Zhang Jingshu covered her mouth and laughed for a while before she said: "Well, you are always about the same age as Yingying, and you will start the board of directors.. From now on, I will give you two taels of monthly silver every month and buy what you want to eat."
Zhu Yuan refused to accept: "I am still in charge of Defu Shizhan." Shouldn't I get a bit more than Zhu Ying?
Zhang Jingshu continued: "Your shop has only been opened for a few days, and it hasn't even taken back the original. What kind of money? Besides, where is the family, where is you and me? I will take care of the house, except for Yueyin. Didn't you take anything else? Isn't all the money earned from the store used at home? How can you divide it up?" After speaking, the tone has become a little serious.
Too. Zhu Yuan Disappointed: "It's because I want to make trouble." Hey, the sense of crisis is too heavy.
In this era, the status of women is too low. If you don't have any money, you will shudder when you think about it.
But Zhang Jingshu was right, how can a family be so clearly divided.
Everyone must work together for the home, so that it can be called home..
I was thinking about it, my head was suddenly rubbed. Zhu Yuan looked up and met Zhu Xiuqi gentle gaze.
"Yuanyuan, do you want to buy something?"
what? Zhu Yuan froze for a moment, and shook his head hurriedly: "No, I just want to save some money, and what I want to buy in the future."
Zhu Xiuqi and Zhang Jingshu looked at each other.
Zhang Jingshu also touched her head: "The family is still not well-off. If Defu Food Store can make money, it can help the family a lot. When the family is more comfortable in the future, can I give you more money?"
Zhu Yuan felt warm and nodded vigorously: "Okay."
This matter is over.
Afterwards, Zhu Yuan always sighed and sighed, but deep down, his recognition of the family has deepened..
Closer to home,
Today's banquet was successfully held and Zhu Xiuqi became the biggest winner.
Zhu Yuan suggested a few days ago the list of punishment and promotion, he felt that there is a lot to do, and after discussing with Professor Wang, he came up with the charter.
Anyhow, it is produced by the county government. Of course, it can’t be so straightforward and vulgar. So the punishment list was changed to Shenming Pavilion and Yangshan to Jeongseon Pavilion, both of which were placed at the gate of the city. On the 15th day of each month, a person hired by the government was responsible. Preach.
From this, he also thought of the bridge paving and drainage digging that he wanted to do in the spring..
However, Wu County is so poor that the collected land tax has to be handed over
The court, he also didn't want to learn from the county magistrate and desperately search for the people's anointing, causing complaints everywhere.. In this way, he has no money left to do this.
If he doesn't do it, how can he increase the land for the people? How to increase business travel?
Just having a headache, Zhu Yuan proposed to punish the evil and promote the good.
His thinking suddenly broadened, and he set his sights directly on the local wealthy gentry in Wu County.
As the saying goes, killing people and setting fire to a gold belt, repairing bridges and paving roads without corpses. Rich gentry has money, and winning is a good name.
Zhu Xiuqi simply discussed a charter with Professor Wang. In addition to attending the meeting at Jeongseonjeong, the donors will also be included in the county annals.
That's the county record! Even if it is only limited to Wuxian, it is no different from Liufang Baishi!
But these wealthy gentry didn't know if they were frightened by the last county magistrate. Such a good thing even hesitated, as if they were evasive.
Zhu Xiuqi had no choice but to let Zhang Jingshu host a banquet, planning to take his time.
As a result, after a buffet, one by one changed his mouth to say that he would be happy to contribute to his hometown. Tomorrow, he took Yinliang to the county office to discuss in detail.
Zhu Xiuqi:? ?
Why doesn't he know that eating is so effective?
However, things are done well.
Next, it was time for him to show his talents.
Zhu Xiuqi is smug, but Zhu Yuan is not so good.
In order to prepare for the banquet, she has been spinning for two days, plus she has to practice :Qin, copy books, and inventory the shop equipment-because the banquet requires too many tables, chairs, and tableware, the shop has been closed for three days, and everything is moved to the official residence for use. Move back to the shop one day.
After that, she felt that her whole body was about to fall apart, her body was weak, and her waist and abdomen were aching.
Thinking of her illness when she first came here, she was frightened, and hurriedly asked her parents to leave and rest in bed.
Humiliated Zhu Xiuqi and his wife hurriedly to find a doctor for her.
Fortunately, the doctor said that he was just tired, so he could rest for two days.
Zhu Yuan just breathed a sigh of relief it's worth noting that she has been walking around and exercising in the past few months...
But Zhang Jingshu and the two were not at ease. They still asked the doctor to prescribe a few tonics and pour Zhu Yuan down.
Zhu Yuan can't help but swallow medicine with tears.
After finally coaxing away worrying parents, Zhu Yuan collapsed on the bed and sighed, "You can't live by yourself..." Who told her to be surprised.
Xia Zhi heard it, and warmly persuaded: "Lao-Ye Fu-ren cares about you."
"I know." Zhu Yuan mumbled, "I just feel sick with medicine."
Xia Zhi covered her mouth and smiled: "Yes, Miss is still a child——"
"Mei-Mei!" A hoarse voice came from outside the room, "Is Mei-Mei inside?"
Zhu Yuan was stunned, then he sits up with a grunt, and said: "I am here, brother, come in!"
Her steady and handsome brother is back! !
Hearing her voice, rapid footsteps approached from far away.
With a sigh of relief, the dusty half-aged boy walked in around the screen.
It was Zhu Tingzhou who was just over twelve years old.
Zhu Yuan had eyebrows crooked and greeted happily: "Brother, you are back!"
The Xia Zhi also blessed the body: "Shaoye."
Zhu Ting Zhou waved his hand, strode over, and first looked at Zhu Yuan on the bed carefully, and asked, "I heard that the doctor has just been hired in the house.. Are you okay?"
Zhu Yuan naturally denied: "It's all right, it's just tired, just a false alarm."
Zhu Ting Zhou didn't believe it very much: "Really?" He glanced at the thin quilt hiding on her body, with a face somewhat similar to her with obvious worries, "If you feel uncomfortable, don't act aggressively."
Zhu Yuan followed his gaze, suddenly speechless-this is not because her father and mother heard that her waist and abdomen were sore, and felt that she was weak, so she had caught a cold under the cover.
Seeing that Zhu Tingzhou was still worried, Zhu Yuan simply lifted the thin quilt, got up with a sigh, barefoot Girl bounced on the bed twice: "Look, I’m not good—"
Before he finished speaking, a hot stream suddenly gushed out somewhere.
Zhu Yuan's face changed drastically——
It was Zhu Tingzhou who changed his face before her. Just listen to the hoarse male duck yelling in horror: "Help, help — Mei-Mei is bleeding — come on —"
Zhu Yuan: ..
:Damn, now the whole world knows that Lao Tzu has come to Auntie.
