Chapter 295: Busy, Busy
It's not good to be sunbathed outside, and Zhao Yunlan doesn't want to go out when she enters the house.
"It's good to rest today!" Zhao Yunlan lay on the rocking chair and swayed for a while. Xiao Qing'er was playing actively on the couch next to her.
Zhao Yunlan fed Qing'er a little water from time to time, and the little girl had gained a lot of weight, and now she can crawl and play.
Mama Cui came in from outside and said, "Madam, I asked someone to go to the cellar and dig a basin of ice, and I will send it over in a while." ”
"Send some to the study, it's time for Raven to practice calligraphy over there."
Cui Mama said: "A small basin has been sent over from the study. ”
"Well, thanks to Mama Cui, I'm able to relax now." Zhao Yunlan slowly closed her eyes and wanted to take a nap, but Qing'er saw that her mother closed her eyes and obediently stopped making a big noise.
Chunxiang gently took the fan in Zhao Yunlan's hand and stood aside and fanned it leisurely, while Mama Cui took care of Qing'er to drink milk and coaxed the little doll to take a nap.
On the county government's side, Li Mingren looked at the sun, and then instructed Chen Yiqing to set aside some silver to come out as expenses to cool off the heat and prepare some herbal tea to quench the thirst of the road construction workers.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the hottest noon of the day has been scheduled for workers to stop work and rest. These workers who come to work always feel that this work is not real, because this road construction work not only pays for the salary, but also manages the daily meals, and now there is herbal tea and lunch break to quench their thirst.
Now the workers look at Li Mingren more kindly than they look at their own parents, so that now Li Mingren has come to inspect the circle and start and end in response, and every citizen can't help but greet this amiable and respectable county magistrate.
In the county office, Chen Yiqing is reporting the progress of the project and various expenses.
"My lord, in the past few days, many people have come to ask when we will recruit people again, our second phase of the project is almost over, and it is time to recruit the third group of people." Chen Yiqing had been talking for so long, he already felt thirsty, and consciously picked up the tea at hand and took a sip.
Li Mingren nodded: "Let's start recruiting people tomorrow, take advantage of this time to catch up with the construction period, recruit more people, and the remaining branches will be carried out at the same time." The county government sent 40 people out this time. ”
Chen Yiqing: "Yes, my lord! ”
Li Mingren looked at the account books and calculated that the silver should be enough. Looking up at Cao Yingfa leisurely drinking tea, his relaxed appearance made people can't help but be jealous.
"Cao Xiancheng, is it still going well when you come in?"
Cao Yingfa sat up straight and responded, "My lord, it's quite easy for the lower officials to come in." As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Chen Yiqing with a smile.
Speaking of this Cao Yingfa, since he recovered from his injury, he has never seen Chen Yiqing compete for work and credit, and he only does his own work every day, and he has become a scoundrel.
Li Mingren doesn't know if this is for the better or the worse, anyway, the atmosphere between the three of them has been much more relaxed than before. But now~ Li Mingren can't see everyone's busy feet not touching the ground, and some people can still swim well.
"Cao Xiancheng, the matter of the county government to reduce the number of personnel will be handed over to you, you can start now, and hand over a list to me after all the roads are completed, of course, it is not just a simple list, I believe that Cao Xiancheng will be able to handle this matter."
Cao Yingfa couldn't help frowning: "My lord, you have handed over the work of offending people to me!" "Besides, this list is really not a simple registration of names, this is to be remembered in detail, you need to talk to the big guys one by one to understand everyone's thoughts, and then consider a list based on these records. Not only offending people, but also cumbersome.
Li Mingren smiled lightly: "Then I believe that with Cao Xiancheng's ability, he can do this without offending people." ”
After that, Li Mingren planned to pack up his things and go home. After going out of this matter, Li Mingren's steps were much easier, and when he passed in front of Cao Yingfa, he couldn't help but pat Cao Yingfa on the shoulder to show encouragement.
Chen Yiqing followed behind Li Mingren and smiled, ignoring Cao Yingfa's eyes that dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak!
Here in the school, Zhao Yunlan was discussing the topic of the midterm test with Mr. Chen today, so she delayed a little longer.
Huang Yuan has already thought about the test content of the physical class, that is, all the children play a set of boxing methods, this boxing method is learned by the county government, Huang Yuan changed it slightly according to the children's own situation, so the next physical class, in addition to daily exercise, is to teach the children to box.
Regarding this mid-term quiz, Zhao Yunlan told the two gentlemen not to inform the children in advance, but to wait until the day of the exam, so that it is more convenient to understand each child's attitude towards learning and mastery of learning.
Unknowingly, when the sun fell, Zhao Yunlan rushed back to the inner courtyard of the county government with Ruiwen.
Li Mingren had just eaten a bowl of bean paste ice to relieve his fever, and he was reading a book leisurely at this moment.
"You are so relaxed today, everything in the county government is busy?" Zhao Yunlan wiped her sweat with Ruiwen, and the mother and son sat aside and ate the bean paste ice brought by He Hua.
"It's definitely impossible! It's just that everything has been settled, and my heart is much more comfortable. I'm relaxed this afternoon, and there will be new problems waiting for me to solve tomorrow morning. Li Mingren spoke, helping Zhao Yunlan to fan.
After eating a few bites of ice, it finally relieved the heat, and Zhao Yunlan responded: "Busy, busy!" You just have a plan in your heart, how was Yuncheng in the county government during this time? ”
Li Mingren replied: "It's decent, I practice with those people every day, and I guess I'm still thinking about going to the barracks!" ”
Zhao Yunlan raised her eyebrows, Yun Cheng's thoughts were expected, she had been here with the Zhao family for so long, and she knew the temperament of the Zhao family to some extent, and her younger brother could be said to be a little obsessed.
It's just that Zhao Yunlan can't make a decision for Zhao Yuncheng about going to the barracks, and he can't let him join the army on his own according to Zhao Yuncheng's wishes, in Zhao Yunlan's heart, Yuncheng is still a minor, and the accepted concepts and knowledge are not enough to support himself to make his own decisions.
In fact, Yunlan hopes that Yuncheng will study again, and if he has the opportunity, he can go to all parts of the country to see more, and then decide his own path. It's just that her father and mother are still there, so Zhao Yunlan doesn't want to interfere too much in these things.
This time, while the Wang family and they went back, Zhao Yunlan brought a letter to the Zhao family's father, one is to ensure safety, and the other is about the future of her younger brother, these things need to be known by the family.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yunlan opened her mouth and said, "I don't know where my mother and third brother were?" ”
"Counting the time, you should be out of Cangzhou!"
"Hey~" Xiao Ruiwen suddenly sighed faintly beside him, attracting the couple to look at him, and asked with concern:
"What's wrong, son?"
Rui Wen shook his head with the appearance of a little adult and said, "I don't know if the third uncle can take care of my grandmother, I'm very worried!" ”
Li Mingren couldn't help but poke the little head in front of him: "You kid has also arranged your third uncle, you don't have to wait for him to know." ”
"Dad and Mom don't say no, it's done!" Ruiwen said puffingly.
"Hey! Gotcha! ”
Zhao Yunlan smiled: "You can't talk about the elders behind your back, you still remember that your third uncle took care of you and your grandmother when you came, he is a successful person." ”
Raven nodded thoughtfully.
Now even Yunlan couldn't help poking this little brain melon, "Okay, let's eat, I can't grow tall if I think too much every day." ”
Hearing that he wasn't tall, Rui Wen was so frightened that he ate an extra bowl of rice at night.
And Li Mingli, who was far away, sneeze all night, and was directly fed a bowl of decoction to prevent wind and cold by Wang's concern.
