Lizhi was a little squeamish at the beginning, after all, she was raised by Zhang Yang's family like princesses. She doesn't look down on the big pot of dishes that Zhang Chun eats with everyone, and she also recognizes life, as long as others get close, she will hide in Zhang Chun's arms. Although he still cried a few times at night because he missed his mother, Zhang Chun fell asleep after coaxing. Two little hands would pinch Zhang Chun's clothes in their sleep and rub them around the tips of their fingers. A face with baby fat is very cute.

But at a young age, she already knew that her mother didn't eat much in order for her to be fed. So although I have tears in my eyes when eating, I will subconsciously see if everyone has food in their bowls and try my best to eat in large gulps.

It's just that at night, I will muttered to Zhang Chun that the food is unpalatable.

"It's so unpalatable, and you're still so happy?" Zhang Chun laughed and teased her.

"It's hard to eat, but I can eat enough, I can't eat enough at home, my mother and my father can't eat enough. They eat rice bran in their meals, and you can eat enough if you don't have it at home. The three-year-old Lizhi looked sad, pitiful and at the same time, quite cola.

The three-year-old Lizhi is the youngest of all the children of the Zhang family, and she is also the hostess, so everyone let her. Even so, he didn't develop a beautiful and arrogant temper and character, and he was able to play with everyone and take care of the feelings of other people's children. This shows that Lizhi's family education since childhood has done a good job, and its essence is not bad.

It's just that Zhang Chun is too sticky, always following Zhang Chun's buttocks, eating together, sleeping together, Zhang Chun is fine, and he will be crooked on Zhang Chun.

Zhang Chun recovered from a serious illness, but in fact, his energy was still not enough, but because of his beauty, Zhang Chun's smile increased.

Zhang Fenglan likes beauty very much. But now Lizhi hates everyone in Jinjiling. This little girl is three years old, she is a little older, and she doesn't know what a husband and wife are, but the feeling of being abandoned makes her very unhappy.

The wedding was simple because there weren't many people left in the house on either side. Zhang Fenglan invited the lord Bo Xin Baojiu to come over as a witness, which is a big face. It's not that this era didn't get married from a baby, it's just a little less. The matter of Zhang Chunyong's fight against the bandits has been reported to the palace, and the county order rewarded him with one hundred taels of silver. and let the chief book replace the county order as a witness. If there are still people in the Yunlong area, it must be very sensational. But in fact, Yunlong Town was ransacked. The large and small villages are ten rooms and nine empty, except for the large households, the common people have no food.

Zhang Fenglan and others summoned large merchants in the Qinghe area to donate grain to Yunlong Town for disaster relief. barely maintained the situation, but most people only alleviated the urgent need, and in order to survive the autumn harvest, the imperial court still needed to allocate money and grain. Zhang Fenglan's actions made the local big families in Yunlong Town unable to get over the face, and all families began to give porridge to the poor. There are children who sell their daughters, but not many of the locals actually starve to death. It's just that in the mountains, there are starvations everywhere, and many plagues have occurred. The bandits did not grab much food.

This also means that during the summer harvest, the bandits are likely to go down the mountain again to grab food. And the imperial court has no power or intention to suppress bandits and provide disaster relief. Therefore, the marriage of the Zhang family in Zhangjialing and the Zhang family in Jinjiling is also a good thing, and the county lord Bo has already sent a message to the major families to jointly form a group to practice in order to resist bandits. This was part of the imperial court's policy to make the Boxer Rebellion an official office.

Although there are only about 50 men and women in Zhangjialing who can afford to hold knives and guns. But there is a box cannon, made by ten Hanyang. As long as there is not too much disparity between the enemy and us, it is okay to protect yourself. Originally, the imperial court had strict control over muskets. But in fact, many large families bought muskets from foreigners, and the Wu family in Qinghe had guns because they had a boat directly to Hankou, and the government only turned a blind eye. What's more, Wu Sicheng was still nominally a guerrilla military attaché.

The ten-shot Hanyangzao was handed over to Zhang Tian's group of half-grown children for training, but there were not many bullets, so they could only disassemble and maintain the guns, raise the guns and aim, and enhance their arm strength and aiming. After Zhang Chun was able to run, he took them to run around the earthen weizi twice a day.

Of course, Zhang Chun couldn't run, at most one lap, because he had a poor physical foundation and was dragged down by beauty.

Zhang Chun took these dozens of children, in addition to taking care of his own 100 acres of rice land, he ran over to help Jinjiling. Fifty or sixty children were dispatched at the same time, which was quite spectacular. You can't do hard work, but weeding is possible. In fact, in this era, the farmland did not even have fertilizer, and field management was weeding.

Zhang Tian is the oldest of these children, and he is already fourteen years old. According to the old custom, at the age of fourteen, you can marry a daughter-in-law, which is considered a strong labor force in the family. A little younger than him is thirteen-year-old Chen Jizu, a child with the surname Niutoushan. Among these children, these two people are considered to be big brothers, but Zhang Chun has decided to cultivate a guard team among these children, and Zhang Tian and Chen Jizu have become fifteen children.

Among the fifteen children, eight boys are among them, and the other seven girls, Zhang Yan is the head, are all selected from the girls with the best physical strength, and on the whole, the physical fitness is better than that of the eight boys. At the beginning, Zhang Tian was bullied by Zhang Yan, who was two years younger than him, which hurt his self-esteem, but later he got used to it. Because of the same training, the girls are no worse than the boys. And Chunya is also a martial arts instructor, so she will be a little partial to girls.

In order not to lose face for the boys, almost all the boys tried their best to learn from Zhang Chun how to use and maintain their guns. Ten shots of Hanyang-made boys, one stroke per person. The girls only had two rifles. The rest is a crossbow made by Zhang Xiuqing according to the pattern drawn by Zhang Chun.

Zhang Chun was drawn on the military crossbows used by the guards of the institute in later generations. The structure is simple and small, even if the bowstring material is made of animal tendons, the power is still good within twenty steps. In addition to guns and crossbows, the fifteen children were equipped with daggers made of steel. Because in addition to the basic skills, Chunya teaches some small kung fu, and is good at melee combat and sneak attacks. Because Chunya is partial to girls, so boys can't beat girls in close combat.

Of course, because they are too young, the training intensity is not too high, and it is basically restorative training.

After the main Bo and Zhang Fenglan left.

Zhang Chun discussed with Zhang Yang about building a road to Jinjiling. And the house of the Zhang family in Jinjiling was built directly at the highest place in Jinjiling. Anyway, all it takes is a big yard. In this way, the two families can take care of each other, but it is really not possible, and the Zhang Yang family can take refuge in Tuweizi.

The courtyard wall of Zhang's house in Jinjiling was built very high by taking advantage of the terrain. However, it is also an earthen wall structure. There are too few people in their family, and it is only Zhang Chun who goes together to have such a trace of protection. After Zhang Yang's house was built, he asked someone to find a son-in-law for the surviving woman. But in fact, the entire area that was attacked by bandits was full of women and men.

In addition to farm work, the adults in Zhangjialing build roads and repair water conservancy. Due to the extensive planting implemented this year, the daily management does not take much effort after the busy farming.

In July, Xin Baojiu invited a veteran of the New Army to Yunlong Town to serve as an instructor for regimental training, and Zhang Chun asked all adult men and women to participate in the training, but the instructor only came to teach for three days before going to Lijia Village. Military training is gone, but daily parades and runs around the village remain. Zhang Chun knew that it was impossible for these people to train as soldiers, they still had to be farmers and farm, and they only needed basic combat awareness and physical fitness. The most important thing is that high-intensity training needs food, and Zhang Chun doesn't have that much food, of course, this is much better than other villages.

The instructor was curious about Zhangjialing's letting women also participate in the training. Zhang Chun's explanation is very simple, if the women were in good health, Zhangjialing would not have died so many people. In August, the women who had been abused by the bandits had already revealed their big bellies, and Zhang Chun said that no matter who their father was or how he came to be. And the children are innocent, they must be born, and they should be raised well, so that they can become talents.

Although the instructor is a veteran, he is not very old, and it is said that he went to Germany to study, and he was very surprised by Zhang Chun's words. After the instructor left, the Zhang family came up with a legend of evil and began to spread in Yunlong Town.

The people of Yunlong Town said that Zhang Dayan was of course a demon, killing people at the age of eight, quitting smoking, burying a village of old and young together, including his own parents and elders, giving long-term workers three meals a day, not building houses and building earth fences, and selling property early to buy a large amount of grain, making the grain of the Zhang family the cheapest now, and adopting dozens of orphans, what is this not a demon?

Because of Zhang Chun's reputation, Zhang Yang's recruited sons-in-law for the women of Jinjiling and made no progress, but found a teaching gentleman for Tuweizi, Yuan Fang, the fourth lady of the Yuan family, a rice merchant in Yunlong Town, a female gentleman who had studied a new school.

The Yuan family and the Yang family in Yunlong Town are in-laws, and Miss Yuan and Zhang Yang are best friends who grew up. Miss Four is a woman who has studied at Xinxue for two years. However, because the third son of the Yuan family was going to study in Japan, the fourth lady went home. It is said that this group of students who went to Japan to study in the whole government had to choose more than 300 people, the Wu family, the Zhang family, the Peng family of Qinghe, the Liu family and the Yuan family of Yunlong, as well as those scholars and eunuchs of Baijia Lane, all of whom had opened up joints in Anlu Mansion and Hankou, and wanted to send their children to the East, but they did not make the trip until October.

Zhang Zhidong's new school in Lianghu was once very Westernized, so this fourth lady of the Yuan family studied maps and translated books, and Zhang Chun was not too surprised. I was very interested in her short shirt and long skirt that showed off half of her arms. You must know that Zhang Fenglan is a relatively civilized woman, but she is also wearing a traditional skirt. Zhang Yangshi wore a cheongsam when he first came, but he usually wore a jacket skirt.

As for Zhang Chun's family, in addition to wearing robes and Chunya wearing shirts and skirts. The others were gray shirts and trousers.

The arrival of Yuan Fang brought a fresh atmosphere to Tuweizi. But most of them are loved by children. Because adults have to work and train in the fields, they think Yuan Fang's body is inconvenient. Think about it, the new costumes from the late Qing to the Republic of China are almost all designed for students or young ladies, and no one thinks about them for the common people.

Yuan Fang studied maps and translated books, but he didn't learn much in two years, and the basic enlightenment was still a three-character classic. It's enough to enlighten the children. Because the actual teaching is nothing more than literacy and red. There are more than 50 children in the Zhang family compound, and all of them have to study in the classrooms in the front yard. It's just that there is too little pen, ink and paper, and there are many times to endorse, and the writing is very expensive. Yuan Fang would draw a map on the ground and talk about some geographical knowledge after class. This is something that sixteen-year-old Yuan Fang is very proud of.

Yuan Fang's salary is five strings of copper coins a year, and Zhang Chun gives it a lump sum. This is much higher than that of private schools, because many private school teachers, students just send some chickens, ducks, fish and food to offset the tuition fees. This is Zhang Chun's largest investment in addition to Tuweizi grain.

The most important thing is that the arrival of Yuan Fang freed up Zhang Chun's time.
