The next day.

Pei Qian came to the ink house to check in and report as usual.

Just as he was about to knock, the door opened on its own.

Mo Chen, who was dressed in an ink robe, walked out slowly, and saw Pei Qian standing on the steps of the door, he was not surprised, but asked lightly, "Is there a boat?" ”

“…… Yes. ”

"Go around."

"Okay."

It wasn't until Pei Qian hired a high-grade boat and invited Mo Chen up that he remembered and asked, "Childe, where are we going?" ”

"Upstream." Mo Chen cherishes words like gold.

Upper reaches of the Zhaowang River?

Isn't that going in the direction of Yunlong Mountain?

Pei Qian seemed to know something: "Childe wants to take me to survey the terrain and choose the direction of road construction?" ”

...... "It's good if you're happy."

Pei Qian made tea, set up snacks, and asked, "Why didn't you see Qian in charge today?" ”

He came three times, and two times it was Qian Duo who opened the door, but today Mo Chen opened the door himself

Mo Chen's expression condensed slightly, and he said half-loudly: "Please leave." ”

"Please...... Oh, so it's home. Pei Qian smiled meaningfully, looking very strong and unbeaten.

Mo Chen's face was like frost: "Master Pei, please respect yourself!" ”

Pei Qian: "......"

He wanted to explain something, but Mo Chen had already closed his eyes and recuperated, and Pei Qian had to look at the scenery on both sides.

The boat swayed upstream, because the weather was cold, the grass on the roadside was withered and the leaves were yellow, and the sun in the sky was like an egg yolk, and there was no warmth, so there was really nothing to see.

After swaying slowly for a while, Pei Qian was about to be shaken.

Mo Chen suddenly opened his eyes: "Stop the boat, dock." ”

The boatman was about to slowly pull the boat to the shore, Mo Chen got up, jumped lightly, and jumped onto the shore.

Although Pei Qian looked confused, he turned his head and asked the boatman, "Where is this?" ”

"Back to Gongzi, turn left on the shore and take five miles of road is Xiaosongzhuang, and turn right five miles of road is Qianjiagou." The boatman replied.

Pei Qian nodded and followed ashore.

Mo Chen beckoned him to approach and pointed in the direction of Qianjiagou: "Look here, how is it?" ”

Pei Qian took a closer look and couldn't help but admire: "Second, building a road along the river bank is smooth, and there are no roadblocks to hinder it." ”

There are two roads to choose from Yunlong Mountain to the town: one is a mountain road, which is rugged and stretching, and it is better to be able to drive mule carts to carry things, and villagers who buy vegetables can walk more.

The other is the waterway, the road is short and fast, but unfortunately the Zhaowang River is shallow and narrow, and the goods cannot be transported.

It was once proposed to build an avenue along the riverbank to shorten the route and transport goods.

However, Yungang Town is poor, and there is no money to build roads.

This time, with the help of disaster relief, money and food were allocated from above, and there was a ready-made reason, it was a good time to build the road.

Pei Qian followed Mo Chen all the way and looked all the way, and the more he looked, the more he felt that this path was well chosen.

As he walked, Mo Chen suddenly stopped: "I'm tired." ”

“……”

Pei Qian looked back, and before he knew it, he was far away from the boatman, and he couldn't even see a figure.

He looked around carefully and found that there was a village in front of him, so he naturally said, "It just so happens that we will go to the village to excuse tea and take a break." ”

Mo Chen stood still, looking very reluctant.

Through several contacts, Pei Qian knew that Mo Chen's life was exquisite and he loved cleanliness.

He was afraid that the villagers were living a rough life and did not have clean utensils to entertain customers.

But Mo Chen was tired of this matter, which was very important in Pei Qian's opinion.

If you want to stay, you must make Mo Chen feel warm and comfortable, and look at the money steward.

Pei Qian decided to do the same, and when he got to the village, he made tea and washed the dishes by himself.

So Pei Gan thought about it seriously and persuaded: "Son, let's go around the village, we need to pay wages for road construction, and take the opportunity to understand what the psychological price of the villagers is." ”

Convene to build roads, give more and give less, the government is watching, who dares not to come.

Pei Qian also knew that his reason was too far-fetched, but he couldn't think of anything else for a while.

Mo Chen stood with his hands in his hands, silent for a long time.

Pei Qian felt that this reason was really not good, and was about to say something else, when he saw Mo Chen open his legs and leisurely cross the village boundary monument.

Pei Qian breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly followed, and swept his eyes over the village boundary monument by the way.

There are three big characters written on it: "Qianjiagou"

…………

Qian Zhi made money, but she didn't get praise from Mrs. Qian, but was scolded to pick up firewood.

came out to find a living, and the tired bones were sore, and she was asked to do this kind of work like collecting firewood.

Is it tomorrow, the cooking and laundry will also belong to her?

Qian Zhi dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

She has a bad reputation, and she is suspected of murdering her cousin, and the little girl in the village will not take her to play.

Qian Zhiken didn't know where to pick up firewood, so he could only wander around the village.

After strolling around, I came to the Qianjiagou gossip distribution place: on the edge of the grinding plate.

The little daughter-in-law of the sixth room knocked on the melon seeds, and when she saw the aimless Qian Zhi at a glance, she immediately shouted at the top of her voice: "Qian Zhi, was scolded by your grandmother and aunt again?" ”

The old fourth room brought Qian Zhi out to make money, and he couldn't hide it, and the whole village was waiting to see the joke.

Qian Zhishy's face turned blue and red, and she lowered her head and wanted to walk over quickly.

The little daughter-in-law finally caught the fun, how could she let it go: "Qian Zhi, what about you, did you not earn any money and was scolded by the family?" ”

Gao, who had fought with Li Cuihua, pouted while picking up soybeans: "Do you still need to ask?" Definitely! ”

"The old fourth room is blind, and he mistakenly takes the lucky star as a broom star, and drives the God of Wealth out."

"Do they think whoever goes out to do business can make a lot of copper?"

Qian Zhi's body stiffened, and the humiliation of being pressed on top of her head by Qian Duo could no longer be controlled.

She turned around sharply and sneered at the crowd: "Yes, I'm not as good as my cousin to make money." ”

"Who am I? A pure and innocent girl, her skin is not as thick as hers, and her posture is not as low as hers, but she will not take money out of a man's pocket! ”

Everyone was stunned, there was something in the words.

Gao and the little daughter-in-law exchanged a look, and then the little daughter-in-law asked, "What do you mean?" Don't talk nonsense if you don't have evidence. ”

"Evidence?" In order to prove herself, Qian Zhi deliberately raised her voice too loudly: "I can see it clearly in the town!" ”

"The village couldn't accommodate her, so she went to the town to make a mistake, and it is said that she had a hot fight with the rich people in the town."

"You all say she can make money, how does it make money? Why are so many powerful shopkeepers, but she hooked up with a rich businessman? ”

The faces of the crowd were solemn, and the word hookup was used too ugly.

Xiao Songzhuang became the laughing stock of the whole town because of Li Cuihua, and said that all the girls in other families were dismissed.

If Qian Duo is also ...... That's a matter related to the face of the Qian family.

Qian Zhi looked at everyone's expressions and sneered, this time she had to discredit Qian Duo.

She was even more cheerful: "I saw Qian Duo talking and laughing with those rich people in my town, and they were very close. ”

"Do you know why she didn't go back to the village? Because I went directly to live in someone's house. ”

"A girl's house, living in a man's house without authorization, who knows what to do in it when the door is closed?"

"The silver sold for money is too dirty, and I won't make any money!"

Everyone was dumbfounded, wanting to believe it or not, but what Qian Zhi said had noses and eyes.

But everyone has made up nonsense because of jealousy or something, who knows if it's true or not.

The little daughter-in-law questioned: "Qian Zhi, you won't be jealous of others and make up nonsense, right?" ”

Qian Zhi knew that this group of people who didn't come to be fierce wouldn't believe it.

Anyway, Qian Duo was not there, so she raised her hand and swore: "If I have half a lie, there will be five thunderstorms in the sky." ”

"Whoa!"

As soon as the words fell, a bucket of swill split her head and cover her face, and she was cold.
