"The rice is cooked, you two eat it quickly! After eating, rest early, and get up early tomorrow to practice martial arts. Gu Qingcheng asked the two who were studying hard to start eating, and now their food is not bad.

The noodles are pure white noodles, not mixed noodles mixed with other things, and there is also rice. There is also meat, although it is not much, but it is also hearty.

……

The next morning

"Sister, my legs are so sore, it hurts to squat in the thatched house, and I can't squat anymore." Gu Xueyan said aggrievedly.

And although Gu Awu was also sweating, he had never complained bitterly. Because this is much lighter for him than the pain of other people's beatings.

"Persistence is victory. You said you would protect me in the future, did you lie to me? Gu Qingcheng asked with a smile.

"I didn't lie to my sister, I'll stick to it. I will definitely become a master in the future and then protect you. Gu Xueyan gritted his teeth and said.

"Alright then, I believe you. As for protecting me, I don't need it, your sister and I are strong in martial arts, so I don't need your protection. You better protect your future daughter-in-law. With that, he went into the house to cook, leaving the two of them to practice squatting and walking.

Later, he taught the two to practice the basic skills of dance, plus sword dancing.

"You will play at home obediently, and you will go to class after class, and I will go to the village chief's house." Said to the two radish heads who were still eating.

Then he took the silver with him to the village chief's house.

On the way, I heard someone discussing that Chen Yun was sold by her mother, and she sold it for three taels of silver, and I heard that it was someone in the town who was a concubine.

She suddenly sighed a little, the status of women in this society is really not ordinarily low, only three taels of silver. But from the words of these people, I feel quite a lot, and I seem to be a little envious.

It's a bit sad and lamentable, but who is to blame for this? I still have to blame the Chen family girl herself, if she doesn't make waves, how can she taste the bitter fruit?

"Is the village chief at home?" Seeing that the gate was open, Gu Tingcheng called outside the door, because this ancient was a very important etiquette, if no one was at home, entered the yard, lost something, and couldn't tell clearly.

"Yes, who? Come on in! "It's the village chief's wife.

"Auntie, is the village chief at home?" Gu Tingcheng asked, she came early, after all, it was the busy farming season, and it was late, and everyone was working in the fields.

"Where are you eating, are you eating, have you eaten, girl of the Gu family? I haven't eaten, why don't you eat some together? It's also some coarse tea and light rice. "This village chief's wife is quite kind, and she can see that she is virtuous.

"No need, I've eaten it." You must know that in ancient times, every family was not wealthy, and they all knew that if they didn't eat when they were eating, they should not run to other people's homes.

Because some people will think that you will be unhappy if you deliberately eat something from other people's houses.

"Okay, then you can come in first." She doesn't ask what the matter is, after all, she can't take care of her man's business, and she can't care about it as a woman.

"Who is it?" The voice of the village chief came out inside.

"It's the girl from the Gu family, I'm looking for you." After the village chief's wife finished speaking, she went back to the table and went to eat.

The village chief stood up.

"Gu girl, why are you here? But what's the matter? "This is nothing, he still understands it.

"It's a bit of a thing, I want to ask the village chief to sell me the wasteland not far from my house, and I want to ask someone to build a factory there......"

Tell me the purpose of my visit, as well as some of the circumstances.

"That's it! Yes, I'll do it for you later, and I'll go find someone after dinner. It's just that the monthly money you said will not change if you eat a meal, right? ”

What a chance to help the villagers!

You must know that he is definitely a qualified village chief, and many things are considered for the village.

"It won't change, as for when the construction will start, the village chief can approve the land, I don't know if there is a reliable aunt in this village, I want to ask her to cook and give money."

This cook, she definitely can't do it for them herself, a large group of people, she can't do it.

"Okay, I'll inquire for you, you can approve it this morning, I'll recruit people later, just recruit about 20 people according to what you said, as long as the people are full, you can start work in the afternoon."

The village chief nodded, this is a big project, okay, okay.

Now many people in the village can make money, according to what the Gu family girl said, 50 wen a day per person.

At this stage, there are almost two taels of silver, which can be compared to planting crops, and now the most work in the town is only twenty or thirty wen a day.

I don't eat at noon, and it's only a few hundred wen a month.

"Then I'll bother the village chief, so I'll go back and wait for news. When you have the title deed approved, let me know. ”

"Okay."

The village chief thought that this project was really good, and he could also let his eldest son do it, which was higher than the salary in the town. Why not?

Soon the news spread in the village, and many people enthusiastically signed up.

I heard that there is still a quota limit, whether it is preparing to repair a house on the construction site or wanting to cook, many people go to the village chief to ask for a quota.

But the village chief is also a reliable person, and he naturally knows who can and can't.

Some people who like to be lazy and treacherous, he directly said that the quota has been set.

In the end, 20 strong, capable, hard-working men in the village were selected to repair the walls and build houses.

Then he took a look, and as for cooking, he chose Li Qing's mother.

Because Li Qing is the only one in their village who is serious about studying and has a poor family, he will support him if he can.

He went to the town in the morning, approved the land, and went to find Gu Qingcheng.

"The village chief is here, have you eaten?" She was just about to finish her meal, and the two little ones came back.

"Not yet, but it's already ripe, not to tell you that the land has been approved, eight taels of silver, and there are two taels left for you."

took out the remaining two taels and handed them to Gu Qingcheng, and he was not ready to go into the house.

He had to sigh, this Gu family is really rich, since their mother and daughter came, he has seen more money, which can be regarded as an eye-opener!

"Thank you, village chief, don't you know if you have all the people recruited?" He took the money and put it in his pocket.

"It's all recruited, here's the list, you take a look, if it's no problem, it's just these people."

The village chief gave her the list, although he had already selected these people, but they still had to make their own decisions.

"No problem, I'm not very familiar with the people in the village, the village chief just picks it, what about the cooking?"

You must know that the treatment of cooking here is not bad, at least one or two silver a month.

You know, the women here don't seem to earn money now.

If you do some needlework, you can't earn dozens of dollars a month, and women who are a little more tired are only a few hundred yuan.

"I have already picked the person who cooks, and the last name, Zhao Lanzhi, she is not bad, and her hands and feet are clean. Her son, who attends the college, also works hard. The character is good, too. ”

The village chief worked hard to recommend, but he was afraid that she would say that she wanted to change people.

"Okay, then her. Then you can inform these people and go straight to work in the afternoon. Let this cooking lady come to my house. ”

Miss Gu wants her son to be willing to study and have excellent moral character, under such conditions, it is indeed a good mother to think of him.

At least a smart one.

"Well, then I'll go back first." Saying that, the village chief was about to leave.

"Wait a while, it's hard for the village chief today. Last time I made a small snack for myself, and the village chief brought it back to try it. Without waiting for the village chief to refuse, he went in on his own. She wrapped some jerky and fish steaks.

There are still a lot of jerky from last time, but there are not many fish steaks left, so I plan to go catch some fish again this afternoon, and make some first.

When I have the opportunity to go to the mountains again to see if there are any wild things, it is about to be winter, and I have to prepare something for the New Year.

"What is this?" The village chief looked at Gu Tingcheng holding a large bag of things wrapped in oiled paper.

"A little snack is not a tribute. Special thanks to the village chief. "Hand it over.

"Oh well! You're welcome. The village chief smiled and left.

This Gu girl is smart and can be a person, I really don't know what the future will look like. Whoever can marry must be smoked from the ancestral tomb.

Someone in the smoke of the ancestral grave sneezed in the distance, causing the people around him to laugh at him.

"What do you see me doing?" A certain boy who laughed happily, Sihao didn't care about his eyes.

"I've heard that there is a disaster in Salt Water City. My father is having a headache about this, why don't I recommend you to my father? ”

The man in red sitting above, with a face more beautiful than a woman, smooth long hair, a fan in his hand, and a bewitching face. Evil tone.

"No, no, no, I'm not going. This son has recently fallen in love with a beauty and is chasing a beauty. If you want to go, you go by yourself. I'm not going anyway. ”

The persimmon master, dressed in black, stood by the window and looked at the prosperity outside.

What I was thinking about was the little wild cat I saw last time, very arrogant, I heard that it seems to be a person from the rivers and lakes, what is the eldest lady of Gujiazhuang?

He doesn't know much about the things on the rivers and lakes, after all, he doesn't know about it. The doorway of this official family does not lead to other people's rivers and lakes at all.

"Since you don't want to go, why are you smiling? If you laugh again, it proves that you want to go. He glanced lightly at a certain prince.

"......" is arrogant and domineering and shameless! He wasn't allowed to laugh! But there was no way, he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

"Also, do you know the identity of the beauty you have set your eye on?" took a light sip of tea and looked at the standing prince.

As soon as he heard this, a certain prince immediately came up. Asked.

"What identity? I heard her say that she seems to be the eldest lady of Gujiazhuang? I don't know much about the rivers and lakes, you can tell me about it! ”

A curious look leaned in.

"This tea is a little cold, not delicious." Shaking the fan, he said calmly.

"I'll change it for you!" As he spoke, he went out with the teapot, and he knew that he was deliberately setting up a score.

But there is a need for others!

A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late!

He didn't believe it, he couldn't seize the opportunity, and he was ashamed.
