"Auntie, auntie!" Qiao Lan interrupted Li's chatter, "Have you heard about the Chen family in Qingshan Village?"

"I've heard people say that Chen Lao Er divorced his wife and sold his daughter, what's the ......matter? What does this have to do with Miss Chen?" Li suddenly woke up, could it be that Miss Chen was exactly ......

"My godsister was originally named Chen Yuehe, but now she has entered my family's household registration and changed her name to Qiao Lan, however, please don't tell my aunt about this matter, Xiaosheng has thanked her aunt here. Qiao Lan was another blow to the Li family.

"Ahh

Li Shi was a little deflated, and it was Carpenter Li's turn to appear, Qiao Lan took out the token, which was still the moonlight on the lotus pond that Li Da gave her.

Carpenter Li welcomed Qiao Lan into the inner room, and Li Shi went to prepare refreshments in frustration.

Qiao Lan exchanged a few words with Carpenter Li and talked about the buying and selling of jewelry boxes, Carpenter Li and his master had already made the first batch of jewelry boxes and successfully sold a few. Qiao Lan's next step was to say the intention of her trip - to buy private. Carpenter Li was about to refuse, but Qiao Lan stopped his words, "I want to be in a bit of a hurry, I don't have time to find someone to make it, you and your master always had some stock before, just pick one or two sets of them and buy them with me." ”

"My master has some inventory there, but I don't know if it's suitable for Mr. Qiao's house. ”

"This is the size of a few rooms, you look at it! If there is a suitable one, it will be sent to Qiao's house in the East District, as long as the things are good, the price is easy to say. ”

"Okay, I'll go find out. ”

Carpenter Li sent Qiao Lan out of the door, and his mother-in-law wanted to stop talking in the back, but this Qiao family, her family really can't climb up, how can she open this mouth.

Out of Carpenter Li's house, Qiao Lan asked Ye Feitian to drive to the carriage and horse shop to see if there were any eye-catching horses and carriages, she wanted to give her mother and little sister a carriage, but unfortunately, there were not many opportunities to pick up the leaks, Qiao Lan looked at Ye Feitian expectantly, thinking that he would take the initiative to say that he would go to the county again, but people ignored her, Qiao Lan was helpless, Ye Feitian did things according to his mood, when he was in a good mood, you didn't have to tell him, he spontaneously and consciously did things for you beautifully, when he was in a bad mood, you didn't have to tell him, and it was useless to say it。

On this day, Yu Dana came back a little late, and it seemed to have rolled in the mud a few times, and no part of his body was clean, but he had a smile on his face, which was not a bad thing, Qiao Lan stepped forward and asked, heh, is it just crawling in the mud. It turned out that there were really wild boars and wild boars that fell into the trench, and they were not small, Yu Dana and a dozen other people chased and intercepted them, and finally subdued it. Now that the coolie brigade has spread, the trench of the Qiao family is well dug, which can not only prevent wild boars, but also catch wild boars, and can also be used as a pigsty to raise pigs.

Originally, Qiao Lan said that those wild boars would fall into the trench like dumplings in the future, and Yu Dana thought that she must be talking stupidly, but now that the iron-like facts are in front of him, he can't help but believe it. "Auntie...... Young master......" Yu Dana's tongue rolled in time before he didn't call out the word girl, "You are really like a god." ”

"Look at your muddy body, how can there be water in the trench?" Qiao Lan wondered, this was not within her expectation. Yu Dana was about to talk about this sudden situation, Qiao Lan asked first, "The trench has been almost dug up, and when the two ends are still a few meters away from the Yaoshui River, there was some water seepage. ”

"Well, I didn't expect the water seepage, so let's do that for the time being, and let someone rest tomorrow. What about the pig?" In fact, Qiao Lan herself was surprised that there was a wild boar falling into the ditch, the village she met in the last days, the wild boars in the ditch were all caught by themselves and put in, and when she came here, there were those who sent them to the door, how could a good pig fall into the ditch, and it was not blind......

"I came back with two hind legs, Feng Dalang and Second Uncle Lu each had one front leg, and the others were sent to Zhou Ji, and the trench will be completed tomorrow, so that everyone can eat meat buns with open arms. ”

"Very good! Very good! Let Fang Xiaoyong send one to Guangfu Hutong for the woman and the second girl to taste, and the other to the kitchen, I just bought a cook in Yaxing today, just to try his craft. I'm going to Xi'an tomorrow to have a look, you look at the arrangement. Also, no matter what I do in the future, I will call it the master, and the title can be both male and female, male and female, so that your tongue will always be unable to bend. ”

"Yes!" Don't look at Yu Dana's sonorous answer, in fact, he is still a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, the young master is not really a young master, but in the current situation, he can only take one step at a time.

Qiao Lan also thought about showing up tomorrow on the day when the trench was completed, but something happened on the west bank that night. On a dark and windy night, five or six people carrying shovels sneakily stepped on the west bank, and then groped north of the Yaoshui River......

Since Feng Dalang became an overseer, his waist has straightened and his legs have become more energetic, and he is always the first to go to the west bank every day, and then walk all the way from the north end of the trench to the south end, patrolling the entire trench to one side.

On this day, Feng Dalang was still the first to go to the west bank, and then went north, now this trench is completed, things are done beautifully, and his family will become Qiao's family laborer just around the corner, he really wants to fly when he walks, as if the whole person has awakened some kind of endless power, but ......

The Feng family brothers, who had also arrived on the west bank, heard the wail of the eldest brother with his life: Ahh......h

On this day, the two carriages of the Qiao family set off for Qingshan Village early, Fang Xiaoyong drove in front, and when he entered the village, he realized that something was wrong. "Uncle Dana, look over there, something is wrong. ”

Yu Dana opened the curtain and poked his head out to look at the riverbank, there were many people standing on the bank of the Yaoshui River, as if there was some big excitement, and they couldn't even take care of the autumn harvest.

Yu Dana's single-plank bridge connecting the east and west banks has been expanded into a wooden plank bridge, which was originally expanded by Yu Dana's carriage, Qiao Lan's carriage is relatively large, so she can't pass, so she has to get off on the east bank, and Ye Feitian stays in the carriage.

Today, Qiao Lan was still dressed in white brocade, humble and gentlemanly, gentle as jade, which suddenly attracted the attention of everyone present. Yu Dana had already released a rumor before, saying that the Qiao family was about to send the third young master to preside over the affairs of the West Bank, so in everyone's minds, her identity was undoubtedly the third young master of the Qiao family.

Qiao Lan walked towards the location of the accident under the gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, Yu Dana followed beside her, and the coolie brigade followed behind hulala, wanting to see how this matter ended.

The distance between the northern end of the ditch and the Yaoshui River, which was still a few meters apart, was dug last night, and the water of the Yaoshui River continued to flow into the ditch, and now the ditch is no longer a ditch, but a canal.

Qiao Lan, who was expected to return, was silent, and slowly walked south along the canal, Yu Dana knew his master's plan, and now that things have become like this, it is really very infuriating. He turned around and asked Feng Dalang, who was looking at him, "Do you know who did it?"

Feng Dalang was already panicked, he didn't dare to look at Qiao Lan with a calm face, he could only hope that Yu Dana would help him say a few good words, "No...... It's not us ......"

Qiao Lan walked all the way to the south, and because the other end had not been dug up, the water was flowing out, and then returned to the Yaoshui River.

"Yu Dana!" Qiao Lan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up, which lifted the spirits of the people around her, and everyone was waiting for the main master's order, "Arrange people, dig through both ends for me!"

"Master!" Yu Dana couldn't figure it out, shouldn't the north end be blocked at this time, and then the water should be drained out?

"Listen to me, dig it!"

"Yes!"

Yu Dana arranged for the Feng brothers to dig the southern section, and the Lu family went to dig the northern end, as for the others, when they heard that the work on the west bank had come to an end for the time being, they couldn't help but be disappointed, but when they heard that there were meat buns that didn't cost money to eat at noon, they became energetic again, and rushed to the west bank of the Yaoshui River, where they usually put rice, to wait for the meat buns.

When everyone was almost gone, Yu Dana opened his mouth to ask Qiao Lan for advice, Qiao Lan smiled, and did not sell the guanzi, "People don't let me make a ditch to raise pigs, I will directly make a canal to raise fish! Look at this canal, as soon as the two ends are dug, it will become living water, and when the time comes, the two ends will be fenced with bamboo curtains, and you will not be able to raise fish!" Qiao Lan raised her feet and was about to leave, when she suddenly thought of a good idea, and stopped and ordered, "First stop the south end, maybe you can even save the silver to buy fish fry." ”

"Master......" Yu Dana suddenly threw himself to Qiao Lan's admiration, in fact, his unfinished words were, "Master, how did your brain grow?"

Walking out of the forest, Qiao Lan saw a dozen or so ragged people sitting on the ground by the forest with their heads downcast, and did not have fun waiting for meat buns with everyone, and immediately understood that these people were the beggars that Yu Dana had said, and they came to work just to earn a mouthful of food.

Qiao Lan summoned Fang Xiaoyong and asked him to find the old beggar who was said to have taken good care of him before. Fang Xiaoyong passed on the words like this in the past, and the old beggar was very surprised, such a noble person actually talked to himself?

The old beggar walked towards Qiao Lan with a limp and a crooked slant with doubts in his head, because of the heavy smell on his body, he also specially stood a little away from Qiao Lan.

Qiao Lan got straight to the point and asked, "Where are you resting at night?"

The old beggar thought that Qiao Lan suspected that their people had broken the trench, and suddenly became anxious, "Young Master Qiao, we rested on the broken temple in the West Mountain last night, I dare to pack the ticket, it is definitely not done by any of us." ”

"Don't worry, I'm not suspicious of you, I mean, since you don't have a fixed place to stay, you might as well live on the west bank this month, and help me guard this place by the way, and you must not let people with ulterior motives have another chance to approach, I will provide you with three meals a day, if you do well, I will pay you in a month, okay?"

"Good!good!" said the old beggar with three good words in succession, and said three good words in succession.

The beggars' lives in the next month have been settled, and they are grateful to Young Master Qiao one by one, but Qiao Lan secretly spits on herself in her heart, feeling that she is simply Zhou Papi, Huang Shiren, this is a ten-person escort team, as long as you give you something to eat, you will send it away, and you don't even ask for a stay. Qiao Lan didn't know that behind her, Fang Xiaoyong whispered to Yu Dana, "The master is really a good person. ”
