After finishing the meal, I happened to see Lu Cai clean up, and Yi Yiran walked out. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Zhang Yun was stunned for a moment, no wonder people said, "Beauty is beautiful even if she wears a sack." Lu Cai, who had been cleanly washed, stood at the door of the hall, and saw that he was long, and the cloth seemed to be a long shirt on him, which had a unique charm. He has a pale complexion, but with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, thin lips and slightly pursed lips, he looks plump and handsome. A handsome face seemed to be happy and sad, and when he saw Zhang Yun at this moment, he arched his hand elegantly.
"You're awake. Zhang Yun reacted for a long time. "Sit down, the meal is ready. ā
Xiaofeng Xiaoxiu looked at this good-looking "big brother" blankly, and followed the eldest sister into the hall.
"Xiaofeng Xiaoxiu, this is the big brother I said, called Brother Lu. Zhang Yun said to his younger siblings.
"Brother Lu is good. The two spoke in unison.
Zhang Yun looked at the two little guys seriously: "Also, do you remember what the eldest sister just said? Try not to go out in the future, and don't tell others that there is a brother Lu at home when you go out." ā
"Remembered. The two said.
Lu Cai was moved for a while: "Miss Yun, I'm sorry for you." After a while when my body is well rested and the wind is weak, I will leave. Saying that, he stood up and made a big salute, "I have wronged you for the time being, and if I can get revenge in the future, I will repay you again." ā
Zhang Yun smiled and waved his hand: "Hurry up and eat, who doesn't have a tribulation and five difficulties, I can help if I can, don't take it to heart." ā
Lu Cai hadn't eaten seriously for a long time, and he slowly ate these porridge dishes, only feeling that they were more delicious than any delicacies from the mountains and seas he had eaten before! The brows on his face are tightly locked, the eye circles are slightly red, and his nose is a little sour, and he can't swallow when he chokes.
Seeing this, Zhang Yun patted the back of his hand comfortingly. Lu Cai was shocked, and looked at it fixedly, and after a while, he forcibly endured his sorrow, pursed his lips and smiled, serious but with endless pathos! Rao is a stranger to Zhang Yun, and he was also shocked by this monstrous sadness.
"Let's eat......" Zhang Yun persuaded, "The body is the biggest capital, if you collapse, how can you take revenge?"
Lu Cai nodded, endured his emotions, and began to eat.
Zhang Yun only reacted at this moment, his actions just now were a little too much, how could he casually touch this standard version of the ancient gentleman like a buddy. After all, ancient times are not modern times, and I should pay attention to them in the future, and it is not a good thing to bring the big grin of the previous soldiers to ancient times. Xiaofeng Xiaoxiu saw that the atmosphere was not good, so he didn't dare to play anymore, and honestly picked up rice in his mouth.
After eating, Lu Cai went back to the house in the backyard, his body was too weak and he had to meditate to recuperate.
Zhang Yun consulted Lu Cai's opinion and burned the clothes he had changed into in the stove, after all, it was not very appropriate to throw them away. After packing these up, taking advantage of the good weather, Zhang Yun washed all the clothes and bedding at home.
In a blink of an eye, at noon, Zhang Yun stewed chicken soup and fried a few meat and vegetables with nutritious and reasonable dishes. Xiaoxiu said ignorantly, "The food is so delicious today"!
Lu Cai was ashamed and said: "Miss Yun, you don't have to spend so much, I just need to be full." ā
Zhang Yun saw that he was sensitive, and it must have been caused by a long period of torture, so he could only guide him slowly, so he laughed and said without an image: "Lu Cai, you came to our house, and I didn't treat you as a guest, isn't it just a matter of more pairs of chopsticks - we eat like this on weekdays." This little girl, I restrict her from eating indiscriminately and complaining!"
Lu Cai glanced at the house, this was indeed not like an ordinary peasant family, and he was a little relieved.
After lunch, Zhang Yun went to the workshop. instructed his younger siblings to play at home, and then "deliberately" asked Lu Cai to help take care of them. Lu Caizi was full of promises. Zhang Yun locked the courtyard door and went to the workshop.
Today in the workshop was different, and people gathered in twos and threes to discuss the events of last night. It turned out that the government searched the entire Shoushan Village yesterday, and some people saw the lights on the mountain in the middle of the night, and it must have been people from the government who went up.
Aunt Chen's son works in a restaurant in the county, and she heard her son say yesterday that Pang Yuxiang, the son of the Taishi, fell in love with Lu Mei, the daughter of Guanglu Doctor Lu Pingji, and wanted to marry her as a concubine. Although this Lu Mei is a widow, he stays in the Lu family to burn incense and worship the Buddha, ignoring the world. It's just that during the Chinese New Year, the family temple worshipped, and was accidentally seen by Pang Yu, who coveted her beauty, so he came to the door to propose. Lu Mei is bent on observing festivals, so naturally he shouldn't. It is impossible for Lu Pingji to agree to let his daughter be someone else's concubine.
Pang Yu was annoyed and ashamed, and said: "It's just a little lady of Kefu, what kind of three chastity and nine spirits?" Lu Mei was angry and wanted to die. Lu Pingji loved his daughter so much that he beat Pang Yu directly on the street. This Pang Yu lay in bed for a few days, hating in his heart, and complained to his father. Pang Hua was already a man of his own words in the court, and he was used to spoiling Pang Yu, so he weaved a charge, and a big hat was buttoned down, and the Lu family was in a catastrophe.
Pang Hua did nothing to hide, and everyone in the court dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, not to mention that there were many sycophants, and the Lu family was beheaded all over the house. The matter of the Lu family gradually spread, and there was no one in the big families around the capital who did not hear of it, and they all kept silent, and they even regarded their daughters more strictly than treasures. Lu Cai, the little master of the Lu family, is even more pity, thinking that he was a famous person in the capital at the beginning, both civil and military, and famous for his handsome appearance, a generation of stars, he fell like this.
After Lu Cai came out, he hiberned for a period of time and assassinated Pang Yu. It's a pity that Pang Yu's life is big, and he only stabbed his guard. Although Pang Hua is not afraid of Lu Cai's revenge, but he does not remove the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, this trouble is the best solved, so there is a scene from last night.
It's really pitiful! This emperor's mind is mush?! It's really embarrassing! Zhang Yun is speechless.
"Bang! Zhang Yun coughed a few times, and the chattering crowd was immediately silenced.
She pretended to be calm and said, "Talking during work hours, don't you treat the workshop as a teahouse?" Everyone was busy bowing their heads and doing the work in their hands.
Turning around and coming to the small courtyard, Li Yue'er was accounting for the accounts. When he saw Zhang Yun, he took the bill. Zhang Yun looked at it, his brows furrowed. There are too few people recruited, and in the face of such a huge market, it is simply a drop in the bucket. Zhang Yun still has more than 60 taels of silver in savings, which can support him for a while. Fortunately, the worker's month before will be sent a month later, and when the puppet is sold, the money will come back.
Zhang Yun instructed Li Yue'er to put up notices and recruit workers in several nearby villages at the same time, and recruit about 80 more people. I also promoted a few people in the workshop who worked hard and worked neatly. Chen Cong's is relatively reliable, Zhang Yun asked her to be the head of the workshop, and someone else took her place.
Zhang Yun calculated carefully, after recruiting people, there can be about 1,000 puppets of various types in the workshop every day, which can be converted into 300 taels per month. In the future, I made neck guards, hand warms, etc., and I could set a higher price. A hundred workers, together with the management and various expenses, must cost more than a hundred taels of silver, and the cost of materials accounts for at least one-third, so that the gross profit of the month is less than one hundred taels. Zhang Yun was depressed, and his practical ability was still a little insufficient.
She told Li Yue'er that the wages of the re-recruited workers were set at 500 wen per month. The workers were to be graded, and the new ones were ordinary workers, and the original ones were set as skilled workers. When the new workers become proficient, they can increase their wages. In this way, forgive them for having nothing to say.
Li Yue'er nodded yes.
At the same time, let Hongmei do the purchase temporarily, she has been with herself for a while, and the purchase of fabrics and so on has been on the road. Zhang Yun gave her a budget of fifty taels of silver, and asked her to be responsible for buying as much cloth as possible from several nearby towns, and the rest to buy cotton cloth, as well as wheat bran, cotton and other fillers.
New houses on the workshop side have also begun to be built, and the rest of the money has to pay for various masonry materials. The mason's wages are not available for the time being, but fortunately, it will take more than half a month to build the house, so I can only wait for the next batch of puppets to be sold.
Li Yue'er started working immediately, and when the workers got off work, they told them that they could bring any relatives and neighbors at home, and if they were from other villages, as long as they had good craftsmanship and worked quickly, they could also come over. And to ensure that the farming was immediately busy, and that although women were not the main laborers, they were allowed to go to work an hour later every day, so that they could have plenty of time to attend to the affairs of the family. Everyone was satisfied.
Back at home, Xiaofeng and Xiaoxiu were circling around Lu Cai. The child is cute, and in a blink of an eye, he forgot that he was afraid of this strange big brother in the morning, and in the afternoon, he was confused by his handsome face, and surrounded him to ask questions. Lu Cai was very patient and answered their questions one by one.
Zhang Yun smiled at them and saw that they were naughty.
"If my eldest brother's son were alive, he would be so old!" Lu Cai sank his face, "When he was in prison, he was only three years old, and then he died of illness. ā
"Condolences!" Zhang Yun could only comfort him with such pale words.
Seeing that Xiaofeng Xiaoxiu was a little afraid, Lu Cai hurriedly changed his mood and spoke to them kindly.
Zhang Yun watched for a while and went to the kitchen to cook.
After eating, Zhang Yun took melons and fruits and other food to the backyard and put things on the stone table. I took the moon cakes again and visited neatly.
Lu Cai looked at this table full of reunions, and his heart was mixed.
Originally, Zhang Yun just felt sympathy for Lu Cai, but after hearing about the Lu family today, Zhang Yun was even more indignant, but it was a pity that he ..... Zhang Yun said: "Our sisters and brothers have no parents, and you are also single, why don't we marry brothers and sisters with different surnames?"
Lu Cai's eyes were full of shock: "Are you willing to marry me as a brother and sister who was hunted down?"
"Acquaintance is fate, and our circumstances are actually similar. Is it possible that you don't want to?"
"Of course I do. Lu Cai was extremely grateful to Zhang Yun, "But I can't affect you." ā
Zhang Yun said: "You are underestimating me Zhang Yun when you say this, I have never been a person who is afraid of things." I respect you and am willing to be a brother and sister with you, so I am not afraid of anything. ā
Lu Cai's eyes were full of tears, and he said in a trembling voice: "Okay, since that's the case, we will become brothers and sisters." ā
At the moment, incense was burned and prayed, and the four of them faced the full moon and became brothers and sisters.
"Big brother!" Zhang Yun and the three shouted.
Lu Cai's face was full of excitement: "Sister Yun, little brother, little sister!"
