After hearing this, the county master's face became more and more soothing, nodded again and again, took the initiative to stand up and walked to Old Man Li, held his hand and said with emotion: "Grandpa, in the end I am young and shallow, you can rest assured that I will send someone to arrange it, give me some time, I will discuss it with the staff, see how to make it more appropriate, and do my best to keep the food as much as possible." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoDo you think we can dig a canal?"

"Yes, some people have thought about it before, and they have dug it up, but they are all doing it at home, if you preside over this matter and let the village chiefs mobilize their families to work together, then you don't have to worry about finding manpower to work, this is a good thing for the people, and the people will definitely support you." Old man Li was very happy when he heard it.

"Cheng, Chuanhu, you help me greet my good grandfather, help me send my good life back, I will come to the door another day to thank you. The county magistrate left in a hurry and went to the staff to discuss this matter.

In fact, the staff also raised this issue before, but it is not as accurate as Old Man Li to observe the sky at night, and now Old Man Li has raised it again, the county master feels that this matter cannot be taken lightly, if there is a catastrophe, then his future as a county magistrate will also be reversed, maybe returning to the capital will bring ruin to the family.

He had to hurry back and write a letter back to Beijing to ask about his grandfather and father's suggestions and specific measures in this regard, and there were really a lot of things to do.

He plans to do it a little better, a little more comprehensively, and he will personally go to the four miles and eight townships to take a turn again, mainly to see what kind of canals are dug by each household, and if he participates in this project, he can take advantage of the situation and use it with the villagers, which is also a good thing for the benefit of the people.

It is indeed a good idea to find a villager to do it, but how should this salary be calculated? Where will this money come from? All these must be carefully discussed with the grandfather and father in the capital, and he can do the trivial preparations first.

Old man Li followed Chuanhu out of the yamen, still a little worried in his heart, "Huzi, will your lord believe me, are you willing to support the people?"

"Don't worry, my lord, I'm going to go down to prepare, it's really a big deal, it's impossible to do it in three or two days, I need a little support from above, and it's troublesome here." "Chuanhu is a perennial fast catcher, and he knows a little about officialdom.

"Then I'm down-to-earth when you say that, and I'll do my best anyway. Old man Li looked up at the sky above his head, sighed, and listened to the destiny of heaven.

"Don't be too anxious, the county master must have a way, it's almost the same after our village has been informed, and what should be done is done. Chuanhu comforted the old man.

Old man Li nodded silently, and the old lady patted Chuanhu's hand, "Okay, let's go back by ourselves, you can go busily." ”

"I'll send you, and by the way, bring something back for Lanzi. Chuanhu smiled and helped the second elder to his shop.

Maosheng had already bought something, sat in the store and talked to Old Man Liu.

"Grandparents, you're back, how did you see the adults?"

"I saw it, and the adults were very polite to us, and said that they would arrange a way. Mrs. Li said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good, but don't be affected, God has to be long-sighted. Old man Liu also folded his hands and worshiped the Buddha.

"Who's to say it isn't. ”

"Grandma, you bring this back to Lanzi, this is a few taels of silver last time Lanzi was sold for rouge, this is the tooth powder I brought to Lanzi, this is the mutton fat paste to wipe your hands. ”

Chuanhu handed over a small purse, two boxes of things, and a little candied fruit to Mrs. Li.

"Okay, you're still thinking about Lanzi. I'm embarrassed to trouble you all the time. The old lady laughed.

"Look at what grandma said, we are all a family, what are you polite, sister-in-law, you are worried, I will go around often, no one dares to bully my sisters-in-law. "Chuanhu is a very caring person, and some things have been thought of and arranged without waiting for you to say.

"Cheng, let's go back. ”

"Uncle, let's go after dinner. Old man Liu beckoned.

"When we go back, the old man is not happy, and he is still waiting for us at home. Old Lady Li smiled at Old Man Liu.

"Hey, just say something if you have something. ”

"Okay, busy with you, you have to come to the house for dinner, your brother and sister made you pickled fish." The old lady smiled kindly.

"Hey, if you have a good relationship, just love to eat this bite, I'll pass it in a few days. "Old man Liu is also going to his younger brother for the New Year, and the family will be reunited for the New Year.

Mao Sheng dragged the second elder back to the village again, and the village chief was already looking forward to it at the door of his house.

Old man Li said a few more words to the village chief, and the village chief nodded again and again after hearing this, and the two returned to their homes after discussion.

When he got home, Old Man Li only said lightly, "The adults are very kind, and they will find a way to solve it, but it may not be a day's work, we have to make some preparations ourselves, the eldest and the second one will go back and check our granary and cellar again, and the bad places are being made up." Learn martial arts, go pick more medicinal herbs in the spring, and don't sell all of them if you keep some of them, just in case. ”

"Okay grandpa, don't worry, leave this to me. Xuewu immediately nodded in response when he heard this.

"Okay, let's do this first, let's make more preparations and save a little more money. Old man Li was in a bad mood and went back to the house.

The atmosphere was not so cheerful in the future, but fortunately, everyone knew that the days that should be lived still had to be lived, and those who worked still had to work, and they couldn't pull it off at all.

Wang helped Li Mu and others make meatballs and prepare dishes for the New Year, etc., and several people were very busy.

However, after two days of hard work, the old man Li recovered, and there was a smile on his face, which made the whole family breathe a sigh of relief, and the old man was unhappy that the family did not dare to make a big movement when walking.

The speed of the county lord is also very fast, so he sent people to the village to inspect the matter of digging ditches for each family, and then followed people to draw pictures on the spot.

The Li family also began to focus on preparing various dishes for the New Year, the meatballs have been fried, fried a lot of various vegetarian meatballs, and also made some meatballs and fish balls, shrimp sauce and fish pickled fish bacon, etc., and also made some fried things such as twist hemp leaves and oil fruits.

I also made two large iron pots of braised pork and marinated water.

Including steamed white flour steamed buns and steamed rice noodles such as grain noodles and black rice noodles, sticky bean buns and bean paste filling and peanut filling. There are also small nest heads. Mother Li also made some rice cakes, and when she ate them, she took them back and cut them into slices, and the whole family wrapped a lot of meat and vegetarian buns, and the dumplings were frozen outside, so you can eat them for a long time.
