When Yunlan came back from Zhuangzi, she happened to receive a letter from home, counting the days of sending the letter, the second team's team estimated that they had walked most of the way.

"Is Akihito back?"

Cui Mama: "Not yet, Sheng'er came back and said that she would be back later today." ”

"Well, that's called He Hua setting up a meal."

"Yes." Mama Cui gestured to the new little girl beside her, and the little girl hurried to the kitchen.

"Qing'er, come and hug your mother."

Xiao Qing'er giggled and stretched out her little hand towards Zhao Yunlan.

"Oh, do you miss your mother today, will your mother feed you in a while?"

Qing'er should understand and can't help nodding.

"Mother." Raven ran all the way from the study, a thin layer of sweat on his face.

"Come here, wipe your sweat." Zhao Yunlan beckoned, and when Ruiwen walked in front of him, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it for the child.

"Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner, your father will be busy with official business for a while, let's eat first."

"Yes." Raven smiled and washed his hands and sat down obediently next to his mother.

At a meal, the mother and son ate happily.

After resting for a while after the meal, Zhao Yunlan ordered to go down and let a few rooms be cleaned up and come out, and welcome the arrival of several younger brothers in the family at any time. There were a lot of people coming this time, so Zhao Yunlan naturally wouldn't place everyone in the backyard of the yamen.

"What's in charge, tomorrow you go to Zhuangzi to make arrangements, clean and clean all the empty houses, and if the bedding is not enough, hurry up and buy it, and then see if there is anything else missing, and prepare it together."

He Wen bowed: "Yes, madam." ”

"This time, there are many people from my hometown, and the family is now an official, and I said that it is an owner, and everyone has some barriers in their hearts. We in the township must be thoughtful in all aspects, so as not to make the old family uncomfortable to get along, and we can't make them feel that they are causing us trouble, and we are embarrassed to speak if we encounter an unhappy one. ”

"Hey, the little ones know. Madame rest assured, the small ones must be carefully arranged, and carefully inspected everywhere, and the villagers of Lijia Village must be at home in Shiyang County. ”

"Well, I know you're getting better and better now, and I trust you a lot. I don't have anything to do here, go to the front and see if the master has come back. ”

"Yes." He Wen bowed and walked out.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Mingren came in from outside.

"Yunlan, I'm back."

"Have you eaten?" Zhao Yunlan looked at the person in front of her, her face was tired, but her eyes were still shining.

"I did, but now I'm hungry again."

"Then I'll ask He Hua to cook a bowl of noodles."

"Okay, let's blanch another meat and fry an egg."

"You can't be greedy at night, just forget about the meat, fry an egg." Zhao Yunlan pursed her lips and said.

"Okay, listen to the lady."

Chunxiang got Zhao Yunlan's signal, and went to the kitchen to arrange.

Inside the house, Zhao Yunlan continued to ask, "How about going out today?" ”

"Today's outing is mainly along the newly built road to visit a few villages in the vicinity, now the road is repaired, it is different from before, the villagers travel much more conveniently, today along the official road near several villages have seen several ox carts come out, I heard that it is to come to the county to buy some food.

If you want to put aside the small narrow road before, you can't cross the ox cart, so you can only send a few more people to come to the county with baskets and baskets. One villager even said that in the past, the road was not repaired, and the family was too lazy to spend the spare money, so it was really difficult to go out. Li Mingren unconsciously smiled as he spoke.

Zhao Yunlan was also infected, and nodded in agreement.

"Today, the yamen has prepared the documents for conscription, and tomorrow it will be distributed to the towns and villages, and in ten days those servants will go to work."

There are two towns in Shiyang County, one is Shiyang Town, the other is Chongshan Town, the whole county is small in scale and small population, so there is no town mayor, only the head of each village, so in addition to the notice notice issued by the general promulgation of various laws and decrees to be posted on the notice wall outside the yamen, there is also Xie Changwang to lead the team to the countryside to notify the village head of each village, and then the village head will notify it.

He Hua moved quickly, and brought the food to him in a while.

"You eat first." Zhao Yunlan brought the noodles to Li Mingren and said.

"Hmm." Li Mingren is indeed hungry, and he takes a big bite with chopsticks.

"Eat slowly, don't rush." Zhao Yunlan looked at the eating appearance opposite, reluctantly poured herself a cup of tea, and continued:

"I received a letter from home today, and the second brother and they estimated that they could arrive before the autumn harvest, and this time Mingli and Mingzhi came together."

Li Mingren muttered: "Then there will be no one at home?" Mother, can they be busy at home? ”

"Dad and Mom are in good health! Besides, there are younger siblings and younger sisters who can take care of it. Besides, if my mother can let her three younger brothers come out, she will naturally be able to arrange the affairs of the family. Now that the third brother's marriage has been decided, I guess my mother should want the third brother to come out and run for more experience before getting married. At this time, the family should be busy repairing the yard and preparing for the marriage of Mingli, and my father and mother should be happy to handle this. ”

Zhao Yunlan picked up the teacup and took another sip of water.

"The water is cold, let Chunxiang change to another pot of hot water, and drink less cold water at night." Li Mingren ate the bowl of noodles, put down the bowl and chopsticks and looked at Yun Landao.

Zhao Yunlan didn't care and said: "The water is still lukewarm, and it is comfortable to drink." I have already ordered to go down and clean up the yard, this time there are other people in the house, and you know, my workshop will start to start after the repair is completed, and it is precisely the manpower that needs to help me. ”

"Well, I know you're busy." Li Mingren responded.

Zhao Yunlan: "I mean that you should hurry up the affairs in the yamen, if there is any problem that cannot be solved, let's discuss and solve it together, you don't want to do it alone, you don't want to tell me anything, we both have to be the same." I can't be like you did some time ago, not only can't solve the problem, but also disrupt the pace of my side. ”

"Well, Yunlan, I know, I used to drill the horns. I'm trying to prove myself so much, and I'm worried that you're busy and causing you a lot of trouble. Li Mingren consciously took Yunlan's hand, with a little apology on his face.

Zhao Yunlan sighed softly: "We are one, I said in the battle to protect the city, no matter what we encounter, we must face it together, I hope we are not only husband and wife, but also teammates, and close friends." ”

"Hmm!" Li Mingren nodded heavily.

Zhao Yunlan continued: "I also have my shortcomings, so I will discuss with you when I encounter something I don't know, no one is perfect, just face your heart, you are still very good in my heart recently." ”

"Huh? At what point did I make a mistake? Li Mingren's eyes widened and he asked solemnly.

"Huh? Aren't you clear yourself? I'm too lazy to rehash it. ”

The memories of the dead returned, and Li Mingren remembered the time when he was in forced labor, and he remembered the days when he squatted outside the latrine every day to write articles.

"Lady, rest early, I'll go to the study to read a book for a while."

Zhao Yunlan looked at the person in front of her with an embarrassed look and wanted to escape, and couldn't help but "poof~"

Li Mingren took a few steps and went to the study.

"Oops~ It's boring, I didn't even say it before I was ashamed."
