Chapter 244: Two Rounds of Man and Moon (2)

"Okay, don't talk about Sister Xin, master, she is a measured child, so she will naturally take good care of herself." Mrs. Zheng was talking to Zheng Xing with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I know she's a measured child, but don't try too hard. At a young age, why don't you always know how to rest! Zheng Xing smiled.

"Actually, I didn't work hard, my uncle looked at me running around, in fact, it was others who were tired, and I have always been more idle. It's this time that I went to the wasteland, and I just wanted to go on a tour of the mountains and rivers! Li Xin smiled lightly.

"If only you knew how to rest, I won't say more."

"By the way, let's take Yueting and them to sit down when you want! I haven't seen them for a few days, it's weird. Mrs. Zheng smiled gently.

Mrs. Zheng and Yueting have a very good relationship, which Li Xin is also very clear about. Mrs. Zheng has always loved Yueting, and she is a little different from others. And Yueting, who has never enjoyed the love from her mother since she was a child, is also a little closer to Mrs. Zheng, a mother-like person.

"Okay, when I come to the county next time, I will take them to live in the county for a few days, and when the time comes, I will have my aunt to help me take care of them!" Li Xin nodded and came down.

Li Xin didn't sit at Zheng's house for too long, so he left. When I returned to the backyard of Yipinzhai, the people who gave the festival gifts to the county government had also returned, and Zhou County Ling and Gu County Cheng both gave gifts in return.

I was really tired from traveling back from the wasteland, and I didn't want to rush anymore. Thinking that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is better to go back early tomorrow morning, and I will stay here today to live here.

"Isn't Miss tired?" Caixia stood behind Li Xin and pinched Li Xin's shoulder.

"It's a bit of a thing! It was very bumpy along the way, and my head was dizzy. Li Xin smiled slightly. It seems that the road on the other side of the wasteland should be repaired at some point. The long road to the wasteland is not an official road, but a very ordinary road built by some people in the surrounding area. That part of the road was really bumpy and bumpy.

Even the official road is not very smooth! What's more, it's that part of the road, and it's tortured once you walk it.

"Actually, it's okay, the carriage at home is also comfortable, and the young lady always feels bad! I don't know what kind of comfort the young lady thinks? Do you have to sit in a sedan chair to be comfortable? Caiyun sat on the side and tilted his head and asked Li Xin.

"You can always make it more comfortable, such as repairing the road well! However, for the time being, there is no such time, and there is not so much money for the time being, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to reclaim the wasteland and build the embankment! When you are free, you should really pick up the road well, and you will know what kind of comfort is called. What is a sedan chair! Speaking of which, the sedan chair is really upside down! Not comfortable at all. Li Xin glanced at Caiyun.

Speaking of which, the sedan chair is really not that comfortable. Moreover, the sedan chair is only used at a very close distance, and the slightly farther road still has to be used for carriage transportation. When she came to this world, the carriage was still more sitting, and the sedan chair was actually very rare, and she sat in the capital when she was in the capital.

In Nanbai County, sedan chairs can still be seen, some families will use sedan chairs when traveling, and there are also places to rent sedan chairs in the county. However, the sedan chair in Sanshi Town is not common, and generally few people will use it, that is, when people get married, they have to use the sedan chair to welcome their relatives, so that they can see the sedan chair a few times.

In fact, Li Xin still thinks that there is one point, that is, it is not humane to sit in a sedan chair. I always feel that it is a little bad for people to carry a sedan chair, so Li Xin doesn't like to sit in a sedan chair very much, anyway, in this life, if you can, you don't need it! Moreover, the space inside the sedan chair is relatively narrow, and it is not as comfortable as riding a carriage at all.

"Isn't that what the road looks like, the official roads all look similar, at most it's just that the bigger places are more wide. How else can you make it comfortable? Caiyun looked at Li Xin with some curiosity. In the young lady's body, there are always new things to see. The young lady is always surprising, and I don't know how much else there is to surprise.

"The roads are usually dirt roads, and they are always pressed by cars, and because of the rain and the like, the roads will naturally become gnawing and wow. Even the imperial court, there are not so many people who always watch the road repaired! If it weren't a dirt road, no matter how it was dumped, wouldn't it be as potholed as it is now? ”

"Aren't there dirt roads everywhere? The capital is a bluestone road, but everywhere can it be like this! Not to mention where to get so many bluestone slabs, if you really have to get bluestone slabs everywhere to pave the floor, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent! Not to mention that the treasury is not rich, it can't be done. Even if the treasury is really rich, no one will want to do that. So! I'm afraid Miss's idea will not come true. Caixia suddenly interjected with a smile.

"It's not bluestone slabs, where in the world are there so many bluestone slabs to pave the way! Besides, the bluestone slab is very heavy, and it is transported around, and I don't know how many people will be tired to death! It's something else, but I won't tell you about it for now, and you'll know when it's time to know. Besides, it doesn't have to be paid by the national treasury! If it is closer, where I can in the future, I can naturally build the road myself. ”

"Miss is really bad, why do you always hang people's appetite like this!" Caiyun pouted, a look of dissatisfaction.

"I've said it now, you can't imagine it, if you can't figure it out! I'm afraid I have to keep thinking about it, and I don't know how many sleepless nights I will have! You'll know when you get it out, and at that time, you'll know it at a glance! Li Xin smiled, but said more.

When is she going to get something like cement out, it can be used to build roads, dams, etc. But I can't build a house or something. The main thing is that there is no steel bar, and if there is no steel bar, even if there is cement, you can't build a house.

However, it is possible to make hollow bricks from cement, which can be used to build a house. The house built of hollow bricks is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is actually very good.

She knows the history of cement. I remember that in 1813, the French civil engineer Pijia discovered that the cement made by mixing lime and clay in three to one had the best performance. Limestone and clay can then be used as raw materials, and after being proportionally combined, the mature material can be calcined in a vertical kiln similar to burnt lime, and then ground to make cement.

There are many types of cement, and the materials used are also different. Fortunately, limestone, lime, and clay are not difficult to find, so it is not difficult to make a cement.

If you have cement, you can make a concrete road, and although it can't be compared to an asphalt road, it's not bad compared to a dirt road. In this era, there are no large trucks with a high load, so the damage to the road is not too great, and the cement road is not easy to break.

"Miss hangs her appetite, and she's afraid she won't be able to sleep." Caixia laughed.

"The main thing is that I can't tell you clearly at this time, even if I do, you can't understand it, so ah! I'm not really trying to whet your appetite. Anyway, it won't be long before you'll know then. ”

"Miss also said that it is not an appetite! It's obviously an appetite. Caiyun looked at Li Xin pitifully.

"Okay, it's been hard to travel all the way, so let's go and rest! I'm going to rest, too. Li Xin stood up and walked towards his room. It's never a comfortable thing to travel, and if you have back pain, you really should take a good rest.

"Then the young lady should take a good rest! When it's time for dinner, the slave will naturally call you. Caixia waited for Li Xin to sleep.

"The moon cakes and rewards for everyone, you must let Zhao Xiaoshan and Lianxiang send them down, if they remember, then there is no need to say anything, if they forget it, you can remind them."

"Miss, don't worry! Surely you won't forget. Caixia responded and went out first.

Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Xin has already told Zhao Xiaoshan and Lianxiang, after closing today, he will give everyone a day off. If you want to go home and reunite with your family, go back, and if you don't go back for a long time or for some reason, you can rest in the store for a day. Because it was going to be a holiday, Li Xin also let those guys prepare a festival ceremony.

Each person has a box of mooncakes and a bounty money. After the opening of Yipinzhai, business has been very good, and everyone in the store is also working hard, taking advantage of such a day to give people some rewards, which is also an encouragement to everyone.

She told Zhao Xiaoshan and his wife about it the last time she came to Yipinzhai, but she was worried that they would forget when they got busy, so she let Caixia watch it.

By the time Li Xin woke up, it was already dusk. The sunset also hung on the top of the west mountain, and it was about to set, and the afterglow of the setting sun came in through the window, which was a very gentle light. Li Xin pushed open the window, today's sunset is very beautiful, red and gorgeous, burning half of the sky.

"It's beautiful!" She smiled slightly, and there was some joy in the corners of her eyebrows and eyes. In fact, whether it is sunrise or sunset, it is a very beautiful scenery, as long as you are willing to enjoy it.

The sunrise certainly gives people more hope, but the sunset does not really make people sad. Although there are such words and phrases, there are actually nothing. If it is said that the sunrise and sunset of a day represent a person's life, then everyone will have a time to grow old, and there is nothing to be sad about.

As long as there are no regrets in this life, then there is no need to fear death at all. Anyway, in this life, I have seen everything I should see, and there is nothing left to taste it, so I don't have to feel sorry.

Only with the right mentality, life is full of beautiful scenery. R1152
