At night, the couple lay on the bed and talked about Zhao Yuncheng's desire to join the army.

Li Mingren: "It's not a good time. ”

Zhao Yunlan: "I know, so let you think of a way, after all, this kid still expects you to help him arrange it!" ”

Li Mingren: "Well, I want to think about it, you go to sleep quickly, don't worry about it, I'll do this." ”

Zhao Yunlan is not worried, but her belly is big and her sleep is unstable, and she is uncomfortable lying down.

"Eh, is there any cotton in the storeroom?"

Li Mingren: "Yes, you want to make clothes?" If your body is heavy, don't toss. ”

Zhao Yunlan: "I don't want to make clothes, I want to make a pillow to sleep on, it's really uncomfortable to lie down like this, and I don't do it, I'll let Chunxiang make it for me." ”

"Okay, let Haruka do it for you, then you sleep on me tonight." Li Mingren said that he was going to hug Zhao Yunlan.

Zhao Yunlan hurriedly refused: "Don't, it's even more uncomfortable to rely on you, you better let me lie down by myself for a while." ”

Li Mingren was helpless, so he had to obediently withdraw his hand.

On the second day, Li Mingren found Zhao Yuncheng.

"Little brother, I know you want to join the army, but my brother-in-law thinks that your ability is not good now, and I am afraid that you will not be able to endure the hardships of the barracks."

Zhao Yuncheng retorted: "I haven't been before, how does my brother-in-law know that I can't endure hardship, brother-in-law don't underestimate people." ”

Li Mingren shook his head and smiled: "Brother-in-law doesn't underestimate you, I'll take Li Hua as an example, Li Hua is our family's guard, what are you still doing when he gets up to practice martial arts?" You're still sleeping, and when he's on duty at night, you're already in bed. It's also about defending our homeland, Li Hua is still like this to defend our little family, if you go to be a soldier to defend our family, then do you think about the hardships you can endure~"

Zhao Yuncheng: "I ......"

Li Mingren's tone changed, and he said gently: "Don't say that it will be different if you go, my brother-in-law is not belittling you, nor is it not not that you will not join the army, but I want you to make yourself stronger first and learn more things." ”

"Then do I still have to continue reading books and reviewing my homework?" Zhao Yuncheng asked Li Mingren with a pitiful look on his face.

"Is it so painful to study? That's it, let's do it, my brother-in-law arranges for you to go to the county government to try it out, and you follow Xie Dian, and he can do whatever he arranges for you, whether it is to guard the city gate, or to patrol, or to guard the prisoners, as long as you can hold out for three months, I will find a way to send you to join the army at that time. What do you think? ”

Zhao Yuncheng agreed without thinking about it, and the expression on his face became active.

"Well, then pack up and report to the yamen in a while."

Zhao Yuncheng straightened his back and said in a loud voice: "Okay, brother-in-law." ”

After Zhao Yuncheng was done, Li Mingren also went to the room to ask Yunlan for a reward.

"How? Lady, I'm not bad at this! Li Mingren looked proud.

Zhao Yunlan: "Yes, but what should I do in three months?" ”

Li Mingren: "Lady, you have to believe me, I will be able to handle those things in three months." ”

Zhao Yunlan raised her eyebrows: "Well, then I wish you success first." You still don't go to the Yamen? ”

Li Mingren looked up at the sky, "Oops, it's late." ”

Zhao Yunlan laughed: "You said that you can be late if you live in the backyard, what will your colleagues say about you!" ”

"I'm leaving, so I won't make small talk to you."

After sending Li Mingren away, Zhao Yunlan instructed Chunxiang to go to the warehouse to get cotton and cloth to make a pillow.

Mama Cui was helping to choose cotton next to her, Zhao Yunlan drew a pillow shape according to her sore parts, Chunxiang and Zhao Yunlan stayed for a long time and can now fully understand Zhao Yunlan's thoughts.

Mama Cui looked at the master and servant, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously smiled.

"Mama Cui, are you happy?"

Mama Cui: "The slave just looks at Mrs. and Chunxiang and feels a little happy." ”

Zhao Yunlan and Chunxiang glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.

The pillow was quickly done, and Chunxiang's embroidery work is now very skillful, and the stitches sewn out are dense but not messy. Looking at this pillow that was one size smaller than herself, Zhao Yunlan wanted to lie down and feel it immediately, and of course she did it in action.

Although it is still a little uncomfortable to lie down, it can relieve some backache. During the lunch break, Zhao Yunlan rested on this pillow for a while, and it was rare to have a good night's sleep.

Time passed unconsciously, and the school had begun to take shape, and the nearby villagers knew that they were going to build a school for a moment, but they thought that there was no one near who was rich enough to send their children to study, and they were not optimistic about this school.

It's just that when the news of recruitment came out, the villagers looked at the salary and became excited, Li Mingli's salary was not too high, it was the normal price in the county, but Shiyang County was so big and there was little work, so most of the jobs in the county recruited acquaintances, and generally unfamiliar people did not dare to use it, for fear of delaying things.

Li Mingli has a large amount of recruitment here, so he doesn't look at familiar faces and relationships, and the village chiefs of several villages wanted to push people to come at first but were rejected, Li Mingli only said: "Let them come by themselves, I will naturally stay if they can do the work, and I need a lot of people here, so you don't have to worry, if you do well, there will be other opportunities in the future." ”

In addition, Li Mingli made a meal for everyone, although it was not a big fish and meat, but the villagers were easy to be satisfied as long as they saw the rice.

There are many villagers who come to sign up for work, and Li Mingli is not a philanthropist, and everyone recruits them, although they want a lot, but they don't accept all of them, and when the time comes, some people are easy to be lazy and inconvenient to manage.

The first batch of workers is the most important, in addition to being strong and strong, they must be able to work for a long time, and they are afraid that they will run back halfway through the work, and it is easy to delay the construction period if they have to recruit people again halfway. Li Mingli screened 30 people to come out and signed a contract with everyone. Li Mingren announced that the wages of these people are two cents more than the wages of ordinary workers, don't look at just two cents, and the accumulation in a month is dozens of cents.

The workers were naturally happy, and some of the general workers recruited were envious of their high wages, and some were annoyed that they didn't come to line up earlier.

The recruitment is over, and a day is chosen to start the ground, and the firecrackers will start as soon as the school is hung.

Now that the school has some appearance, Zhao Yunlan wants to take a look, but now that she has entered the third trimester, it is really not suitable to run around, this ancient road is not as smooth and wide as the cement pavement, and normal people can feel the bumps when they sit in a carriage, not to mention that they have a big belly.

"Hey, I just want to give birth soon, and I'm going to get bored if I stay at home every day." Zhao Yunlan complained, and Li Mingren kept comforting beside him: "If you insist on persevering, you will see that you will achieve positive results." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Hey, don't say it, it's really the same as cultivating immortals, you have to go through all kinds of pain before you can get the scriptures." ”

"What obtains the scriptures?"

"If you don't understand, forget it, oops, my leg is cramping again, and I can pump it no matter how I kick it. Hiss~"

Li Mingren: "I'll rub it for you, take a deep breath, take your time, relax and relax." ”
