Chapter 423: Changes on the Mountain
Although the newly built road is crooked, it is quite flat, think about the level of road repair now, it is all dependent on manpower, such a big project, Li Yue couldn't help but sigh, "We have only been walking for more than two months, I didn't expect this road to be repaired." ”
Li Yunying said, "I'm afraid it's thanks to the fourth uncle, he brought a lot of people back, and it's estimated that they all helped build the road if they didn't have anything to do." ”
Li Yue listened to Li Yun's words, and couldn't help but say worriedly, "Fourth Uncle too, those are all Yanxi Army, how can they be allowed to build roads, it is a fake public and private, what if someone pulls his pigtails." ”
Li Yun stretched out his hand and rubbed Li Yue's head, and said with a chuckle, "It's really stupid, the Yanxi Army is a life-and-death friend who once fought side by side with you, and it is rumored that you are the female god of war in the Yanxi Army, and it is too late for them to be happy to build the road for the female god of war in their hearts." ”
Hearing Li Yun's admiration, Li Yue couldn't help but start floating again, and said in a sneering voice, "Yes, I have led them to win a lot of battles, and they will definitely be willing to help with this little favor." ”
Li Yun stretched out his hand and scratched Li Yue's nose, "I'll start to be proud of you after praising you." ”
There was a carriage to walk, and after a while, Li Yue opened the curtain of the carriage, and saw Xu Jinniang and Xiaoyang standing at the gate of the courtyard, looking in the direction of their carriage.
Xiao Yang saw Li Yue with his head out of the curtain, waved his hand at Li Yue excitedly, and shouted, "Sister, sister." ”
Li Yue showed a happy smile on her face, and also waved her hand at Xiao Yang, looking at the person at the door without blinking, expecting the carriage to approach soon.
When the carriage stopped at the door, Li Yue couldn't wait to jump out of the carriage, Xiaoyang had already pounced towards Li Yue, Li Yue picked up Xiaoyang with her hand, and said with a smile, "Xiaoyang has grown taller, well, it's heavy." ”
Xu Jinniang looked at the sisters and brothers hugging each other with red eyes, and said with a smile, "Xiaoyang, come down, you still need to be hugged by your sister when you are so old." ”
Xiao Yang was busy trying to break free from Li Yue's embrace, and said in his mouth, "Xiao Yang has grown up, you don't need to hug me, my sister let me go." ”
Li Yue held Xiao Yang with one hand, stretched out one hand to Xiao Yang's face, and reached out to pinch Xiao Yang's fleshy face, but she was not willing to let go.
Li Yun, who got off the train behind Li Yue, stood beside Li Yue and politely called her mother, Xu Jinniang responded with a smile, "Okay, hurry up and go into the house, the meal is ready, just waiting for you to eat." ”
Several people entered the courtyard together, and at this time Li Yue found that the original cave house had also been repaired, and it was no longer the simple cave house that it used to be, it was all wooden houses built with wooden planks again, one by one very neat, and the yard had not changed much, it was still the original yard.
At this time, Xu Qingqing and Xiao Xin heard the movement outside, and also came out, Xiao Xin saw Li Yue, and happily called Sister Yue, Li Yue reached out and touched Xiao Xin's head, and the group entered the house.
Entering the main house is a living room built of a wooden house, which is equipped with brand-new tables, chairs and benches, at this time there are already some dishes on the table, Wu's mother is serving food to the table from next door, and when she sees everyone coming in, she beckons everyone to sit down and eat.
When he arrived at the house, Xiaoyang came down by himself, Xu Jinniang saw Li Yue looking at the wooden house, and said, "Thanks to your fourth uncle, as well as the Yanxi army brought by your fourth uncle, this house, and that road, were all built by them, I said no, they had to build it, saying that you are their savior, but you can't let their benefactor still live in such a simple house." ”
Li Yun had already led Xiaoyang to sit down at the table and beckoned Li Yue, "Mother, Yue'er, let's eat first." ”
Li Yue went to Xiaoyang's side and sat down, Xu Qingqing went to the kitchen to help Wu's mother serve the food, but Xiaoxin was still standing aside, he remembered that his mother told him that the master and servant are different, and he can't sit at the same table with the master, and he usually eats in the back kitchen, but when he saw Sister Yue today, he was a little reluctant to leave.
Xu Jinniang saw Xiao Xin on the side, stretched out her hand and beckoned, "Xiao Xin, come and sit." ”
Xiao Xin shook it, and finally ran away, Xu Jinniang responded a little helplessly, "This child is controlled by her mother, what is the difference between master and servant, I don't let him eat at the same table with us." ”
The concept of master and servant in this era is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, even if Li Yue wants to change, it is impossible, because Li Yue knows that the progress of this era also needs a process, and she is too lazy to force it, so she reluctantly said, "Let them be, let's treat them better, eat and clothe them, and don't treat them badly." ”
Xu Jinniang also nodded helplessly.
Li Yue looked left and right, but she didn't see Lin Xiao, and asked, "Why did Lin Xiao go?" ”
Xu Jinniang responded, "On the side of the guards you brought back, that is the location of the Yanxi Army brought by your fourth uncle, and when your fourth uncle left, he was not at ease, and he left a hundred Yanxi Army and still lived there, Lin Xiao was afraid of the conflict, so he brought the guards over to help arrange the accommodation." ”
Li Yun saw Li Zhong who had just entered the door, and said, "You go and arrange the guards and let Lin Xiao come over for dinner." ”
Li Zhong left after leaving, and Li Yue asked worriedly, "What about them eating?" ”
Xu Jinniang responded, "We don't have to worry about anything, there is a kitchen over there, they have their own fire army, and the food was sent to them by the adults in the county, and they all fired their own fire over there." ”
After a while, Lin Xiao came back, and the family began to chat and eat while eating.
After eating, Li Yun talked to Lin Xiao, Li Yue took the two children, and began to wander around the door of a long row of houses built against the cliff, and after a while, he turned to the place where Yan Xijun lived, at this time there were only a few people, seeing Li Yue excitedly greeted her, Li Yue led a lot of soldiers at the beginning, these people were just ordinary soldiers, only a little reflection, but seeing them so enthusiastic, Li Yue also greeted them with a smile.
Just looking at only a few people, Li Yue asked curiously, "Aren't there a hundred people?" Why just a few of you? ”
One of them replied, "Everyone else is building houses by the river." ”
Li Yue heard that Yan Xijun was still building a house for himself, and replied a little embarrassedly, "It's really hard for you, let you come so far, and you have to help me build a house." ”
Most of the Yan Xijun who have followed Li Yue know that Li Yue is a bold person, and he will not speak too politely to Li Yue, one of Yan Xijun responded with a smile, "We don't have to train at the border pass, this building a house is much easier than training, and then building a house for you, that's right, the house you lived in was too simple, and we all looked a little disgusted." ”
Li Yue listened to his words and responded with a smile, "Yes, did you build me a house because you took pity on me?" However, your task is to go to the battlefield and defend the Yanxi border, and this time I brought the guards back, and you should also go back to the border as soon as possible. ”
Several soldiers listened to Li Yue's words, and said regretfully, "Huh? The house by the lake has just begun to dig the foundation. "Actually, they still want to stay in this Daliang Mountain, although they want to build a house, they are much more comfortable than in the barracks.
Li Yue saw through the thoughts of several people at a glance, and reprimanded, "Forgot your duties?" Don't just think about getting away here, you still have to take on the responsibility of encircling the Yanxi border, you can't disgrace the Yanxi army. ”
Several people listened to Li Yue's words, stood up straight, gave Li Yue a standard military salute, and replied loudly, "No." ”
Li Yue smiled with satisfaction and waved her hand, "What should I do, I'll go over and take a look." ”
After that, Li Yue pulled Xiao Xin and Xiao Yang away, Xiao Xin said to Li Yue excitedly, "Sister Yue, they are so powerful, Xiao Xin will be like them when he grows up." ”
Li Yue responded with a smile, "That Xiaoxin has to work hard to eat and grow up quickly, he is too small to be like them." ”
Xiaoyang was not to be outdone, and said, "When I grow up, I want to be like the fourth uncle, leading a lot of soldiers." ”
Li Yue listened to Xiao Yang's words, but frowned slightly, she never thought of letting Xiao Yang go to the army, it was too dangerous to join the army, it seemed that she had to guide him slowly.
Xiaoyang didn't hear her sister speak, and asked again, "Sister, are you okay?" ”
Li Yue responded, "If you want to be like them, like the fourth uncle, it's no problem, but you are like them, you went to the border to fight, who will take care of your mother?" ”
Xiaoyang responded, "There is a sister." ”
Li Yue said, "My sister is already married, my sister will still be looking to take care of the baby and take care of her brother-in-law's family in the future, how can my sister take care of her mother alone, so the responsibility of taking care of her mother is still Xiaoyang." ”
Xiaoyang struggled with taking care of his mother like the fourth uncle, and finally began to make a difficult choice, "Then I will take good care of my mother when I grow up in the future." ”
Li Yue continued to ask, "What about Xiao Xin?" Xiao Xin will not only have to take care of her mother in the future, but also take care of her grandmother. ”
Xiao Xin also responded, "I also take care of my mother and grandmother." ”
Li Yue stretched out her hand and rubbed the heads of the two, and answered, "Really good." ”
While talking, several people had already arrived at the place where the guards lived, and at this time everyone was eating, Li Zhong saw Li Yue coming, and hurriedly greeted him and said, "Why is Madam here?" ”
Li Yue opened her mouth and responded, "Come and see, can you arrange it properly?" ”
Li Zhong responded, "It's all arranged." ”
Li Yue nodded and said, "Although we don't need to pay them military salaries, we still have to prepare for them for their food, and you will arrange for them to eat in the future." ”
Li Zhong nodded in response, "No." ”
Li Yue opened her mouth and continued, "Tomorrow, you prepare more wine and meat, let's entertain the Yanxi army, and then let them leave, after all, it is the Yanxi army guarding the border, and this assassin case has been solved, if they stay on our Daliang Mountain, they will definitely be criticized for a long time." ”
Li Zhong nodded, and said to his two henchmen guards on the side, "You guys prepare to see what you need, and go down the mountain tomorrow to procure it." ”
Then he turned his head to Li Yue and said, "My subordinates are planning to go to the lake to see how the house is built, do you want to go and see it together?" ”
Li Yue nodded, "Let's go, I just wanted to go for a walk." ”
