Xiao Pingfu led his son to the patriarch's house, but was told that the patriarch was not at home; When I asked, I found out that the patriarch went to the entrance of the village, and the two hurriedly ran to the entrance of the village.

Rushed to the entrance of the village.

Patriarch Xiao was leading a group of villagers to block the entrance of the village, preventing the head of the guards and the carriages from entering.

"Patriarch Xiao, Patriarch Xiao, and slow." Xiao Pingfu hurriedly squeezed into the crowd, followed by Xiao Maidong; Escorting his father and squeezing to the front, "Patriarch Xiao, you can't drive it away, they were entrusted by the county lord to deliver good things."

Patriarch Xiao looked back, his stern and cold gaze eased, "Steward Xiao, why are you here."

"The little one went to your house to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come to the entrance of the village; I didn't hurry to come to you, these people and the things on the carriage were all sent by the county lord, and they should have arrived with us, but there were too many of them; I could only wait for the preparations to be sent over, and I set off for the capital a few days slower than us. There were heavy things and lots along the way, and they walked a little slower, and it was almost two months before they arrived."

Two months have not arrived, and a month and a half has been.

"That's it!" Patriarch Xiao looked at the group of guards escorting cement with knives in their hands, and his heart suddenly beat a little better, "Since you are the county lord's people, then come in."

Xiao Pingfu smiled and said, "It's time to come in, the cement transported here is to build a road for the clan."

"Building roads?" Patriarch Xiao doesn't know what's going on, isn't the road they're using now!

"Patriarch Xiao, you don't know in Xianyun County that the capital and surrounding towns have already started to build roads with cement; The road is durable, not afraid of mud and water on rainy days, and it is very gentle when walking on it, and it will not be bumpy." Xiao Pingfu motioned to Patriarch Xiao, and the two walked to the side, avoiding everyone; Xiao Pingfu continued: "The county lord of our family is the county lord who was awarded the title because of cement."

"That must be a good thing!"

Patriarch Xiao's first reaction was to thrash his hands, "It's because I have eyes and no beads."

"No, it's not good that our county lord can offer it! Cement is popularized to build roads, and in the future, we will have good roads up and down in Dazhao, and it will be convenient to travel." Xiao Pingfu said happily, "When we left Beijing, cement roads were basically built around the capital."

Patriarch Xiao suppressed the doubts in his heart, after all, he had never seen what the road made of cement was like, and said, "It's the county lord who thinks about the clansmen."

"Exactly, Patriarch Xiao invites the guards of the Ji family to come in, where the cement is placed, the patriarch will also give a clear place to pile it up. If the cement can't come back, the patriarch will see where to put it to verify, and then how to repair the road and travel in the clan will have to be decided by the patriarch and the clan elders."

revealed Ming's plan to him at one time.

"Didn't the county lord come forward?"

"The county lord has to brush up on his homework."

Patriarch Xiao bowed his head, "I understand, you go back and tell the county lord, I will definitely take care of things; But how do you use cement?"

"Don't worry, patriarch, there are people who can use cement among the accompanying guards."

Patriarch Xiao was relieved at this time, and returned to his original position with Xiao Pingfu, Xiao Pingfu said to the head of the guards, "Captain Feng, you have worked hard all the way, and the county lord remembers your merits; These were sent by the county lord, and you have to go all the way to the road, and you will share a cent of the silver in it, and it will be regarded as the county lord who invited you to drink." ….

The leader of the guards took the big purse and shook it, and there were a lot of heavy hands.

"The county lord has a heart, I'm in a hurry to go back to my life, I don't know where the cement is?"

Xiao Pingfu glanced at Patriarch Xiao, who stood up and said, "Please bring things with me."

"Well, move on." After the leader of the guards nodded to Patriarch Xiao, he turned around and waved, and the guards escorting the cement took the cement and continued to set off.

Patriarch Xiao brought the people to his door and shouted into the house, "Child, prepare tea and food."

"Patriarch Xiao, don't break the bank, we're in a hurry; I'm sorry you to point out a place to put the cement, and we'll leave after unloading." The head of the guard said.

"That's not going to work, I'm going to have a hot meal." Patriarch Xiao was extra persistent.

to the most

Later, the head of the guard couldn't refuse, and ate a hot meal after unloading; There were more than three of the guards who came with him, and the Xiao patriarch's family had a lot of blood.

After eating, the head of the guards left five guards and explained to Xiao Pingfu.

"Steward Xiao, the five of them were explained by the young master to stay here to protect the county lord, and two of the five of them will use cement; You can also do how to walk, and you can let them show you for two days." As for the people who built the road, it was the Xiao clan's business, and it had nothing to do with them.

Xiao Pingfu responded with a smile, "I'll send you all."

"No send, we're leaving."

By the way, take the carriage with you.

When the people were far away, Xiao Pingfu glanced at his son, and then said to the patriarch, "Patriarch, the younger one will take the five guards home to meet the county lord first."

"Okay, the five guards are going to live in the village for a long time, should they live closer to the county lord, or will they make other arrangements?" It's closer to Ming's house.

"Naturally, it's closer."

Patriarch Xiao bowed his head and said that he understood, since it was close, it would not be his turn to arrange it.

Xiao Pingfu and Xiao Maidong led the people home and asked them to wait in the courtyard; Xiao Pingfu went to the door of Ming's wife, and after being greeted by Mama Luo, Ming's grandmother walked out of the house.

"County Lord, these five guards are all the people left by Young Master Ji to protect your safety."

"Meet the county lord of Zhaoyang." All five knelt down in unison.

Ming Wu raised her hand and said, "Get up, you don't have to kneel around, and then I have to trouble you to protect my safety."

"It's what the little ones should do." The five of them spoke in unison, then got up.

"Tell me your names and surnames." Ming Wu opened her mouth, and the five of them began to introduce themselves from left to right.

"Little Chen Yue."

"Little Takashin."

"Little Luo Minjie."

"Little Ningfu."

"Little Nimro."

"Ning Fu, Ning Lu, are you two brothers?" Ming turned her gaze to them.

The two nodded, "Back to the county lord, yes, we are brothers."

Although it is not the kind of twins, it is also a mother's womb.

Ming Wu bowed slightly, "Look at the similarity, which of you can use cement and understand the process of road building."

"The little one." It was Ning Fu who stood up.

Ning Lu followed and stepped forward, "The little ones will too."

"Okay, you go to the patriarch first, and together with the patriarch, you will be responsible for helping to build the road from the clan to the county seat." Ming said.

"Yes, county lord, the little ones will retire first."

Ming Yu nodded, watching them walk out of the courtyard, leaving the three of them in the courtyard; Ming Wu looked at Xiao Pingfu, "The house at home is not enough, wait for the discussion to arrange a place for them to live; Let's get them something to eat and drink first, and then get a good rest when they're full and drunk."

"County lord, they have eaten at the patriarch's house."

Ming's eyes moved slightly, "Okay, you go and call my father and mother to come to the hall and discuss their residence."
