Chapter 108: Old Man Ding Awakens
"Dad, it's Uncle Ding."
"Quick, quick."
The old village chief gave an order, and the fires surrounding the long well were lit one after another.
When the official's horses and Carpenter Zhang's carriage arrived, the huge feng shui wheel was already lit up by the surrounding fire.
I don't know if it was Old Man Ding's luck, or if the official errand came at the right time, the flames began to sway, and the cold wind that had stopped for two or three days began again.
"Brother Qiao, connect the wind wheel, connect the wind wheel~"
Old man Ding was so excited that he shouted.
The old village chief, who found that the huge wind leaves had begun to shake, hurriedly shouted at the young people in the village.
Within a few minutes of dismounting, the officials who came to see the beauty of wind-powered water extraction.
By the time the officials left, the sky was already dawning, and Ding Xuewei's windmill and water wheel had been dismantled, and most of the men in Yuequan Village had been sent to transport parts back to the city.
Old man Ding, who had been busy for two days and one night, brought back not only the good news that the government rewarded Ding Xuewei with twelve sets of waterwheels, but also made it possible for Anping to become a disciple of the dean of Chengdong Academy.
Compared with the boiling salt meter contributed at that time, this waterwheel is now worth the price.
"Your Excellency allows your brother and sister to set up a stall at the gate of the city."
"Really!" Ding Xue was slightly surprised.
"The gate of the city!" Li was stunned.
It was all a surprised voice, which could be compared with Ding Xue's slightly surprised voice, and Li's surprised feeling was highlighted.
She felt that it was not good to be at the gate of the city.
In front of Ding Xuewei, the Li family had not felt the fairness of the old man for a long time.
She never felt that there was anything wrong with her, and all the problems felt that it was Ding Xuewei's fault.
Glancing at the child who clearly disagreed with her, she squeezed her voice to make her emotions appear magnificent.
"Old man, Xue Wei is still young, and your method of pulling seedlings to help her hinder her physical and mental health."
Old man Ding and Ding Xue looked at each other in a daze.
That's not a good thing to hear.
"Old man, I know what you think, Xue Wei, as the eldest sister, should indeed know more, but she is a child after all, some things you say mean this, but she understands another meaning!" Li was stunned.
Old Man Ding's originally calm expression was a little cracked.
It was only then that he realized that the woman was stupid.
The flow of people at the city gate is not necessarily the largest, but it is the best location when it comes to selling konjac tofu.
Of course, this is not only good for Anping, but also for the existing officials in the city.
Don't say anything about Anping, arranging for his family to set up a stall at the city gate is not something that ordinary people like him can refuse.
The big girl was very happy when she heard the words of the stall at the gate of the city.
Obviously, she not only knew that her family could not refuse, but also knew that it was more advantageous for Yu Anping at the city gate.
On the other hand, the Li family didn't see the twists and turns in between, and even hinted that his child was going to a bad place.
At the gates of the city, not good.
He was too embarrassed to say it.
"Oh my God!" Wang suddenly exclaimed, looking at Ding Xuewei's eyes full of disbelief.
The faces of Li and Xiao Li changed greatly.
Busy Li slapped Wang at the name: "What are you yelling about, what are you yelling about?"
Wang pursed his lips aggrievedly, but the shock in his eyes became more and more obvious.
A reminder, a point.
Old man Ding didn't know how much he had misunderstood in the past.
Suddenly, all the past came to mind.
About the stupid words of the big girl, about the stupid words of the second girl, and the unclean hands and feet of the third girl, Anping is not like his argument.
All of them are bright at this moment.
"What does the second daughter-in-law want to say?" Old man Ding asked in a deep voice.
Wang was questioned a lot, and he couldn't feel the coldness in this sentence.
When I open my mouth, I want to euphemistically say what I think.
"Less gossip."
Li Shi, who found that the old man's face was wrong, quickly pinched Wang Shi and stopped it.
"Mother~"
"Shut up." Lee rebuked.
Wang choked back his voice aggrievedly.
watched the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law come and go and was extremely familiar with the movements and postures.
Old man Ding felt more and more ridiculous.
"Li, don't stop her, let her speak."
"Old man, you also know that the second daughter-in-law has always been arrogant. What can be said, what cannot be said is nothing." Lee's and thin mud.
Today, Old Man Ding obviously doesn't want to be confused.
The keen gaze shifted from Wang's face to Li's face again: "Didn't you count her?"
Li, who was about to say a few more words, was stunned.
In her stunned gaze, she also understood who the old man's temper was aimed at today.
"Old man, how can you think of me like this, how did I count her, I said what happened to Xue Wei, I..."
"What did Xue Wei think was wrong?" The more Old Man Ding looked, the more he felt that the Li family was hypocritical and ridiculous, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that his past self was demented.
Not stupid, how can you even look down on a woman who does this, not stupid, why can't you even understand such obvious words!
"What did Xue Wei think was wrong?" He asked again, this time there was an undeniable absoluteness in his voice, an aura full of aura but intellectually suppressed.
When did Li Shi face him like this, the whole person was shocked.
Old man Ding suddenly sighed sarcastically: "The ability to pretend to be confused is really perfect!"
"Old man, listen to me, I didn't think badly, I really didn't think badly, but I just think that the children are young and don't know much, and if you tell them something, they won't understand~" Li regretted it.
I knew that the old man would be so sensitive today, she would never have such a desire to win, and she would never dig a trap for the children of the big house at this time.
It's just a few little kids, not to mention making them obedient, it's just killing things, and it's not difficult for her.
Let go of Wang, and Li went to grab Old Man Ding's sleeve.
But he saw that Old Man Ding shook off in disgust, and retreated, putting himself in a position that Li couldn't grasp.
"Yes, I said it today, and I only said it this time." The sharp gaze moved from Li's face to Wang's face, and from Wang's face to Xiao Li's.
In the end, he returned to Li's aggrieved face again.
He ignored Wang's stunned, and he didn't care about Xiao Li's grandeur.
"You can't write two dings in one stroke, and if the children of the big house ruin their reputation, your children will not get good fruit."
"In the future, don't let me hear any slander and doubt the children of the big house, but if there is, then this family can only hand you a letter of resignation."
As an official, it is not only your talent and ability, but also the quality and virtue of your family.
has a mother who has been abandoned, even if it is Zhuangyuanlang, don't want to wear an official uniform.
The Li family is most proud of Ding Lao Wu's ingenuity, and he believes that his youngest son will one day be able to ask for a fate.
Now, for the sake of a few short-lived ghosts in the big house, the old man doesn't even take his son's future seriously!
actually threatened her with her future!
A roar every day, begging for tickets, asking for collections...
