Chapter 157: Intentions
Taro said: "Then why did you sign up for the army?" ”
"Ahem, it's not for a mouthful of food." Hu Li leaned over a little and said with a smile, "I won't hide it from you, I grew up eating hundreds of family meals, but unfortunately I didn't learn any good skills. I thought that the food in the barracks was going to be fought, so I signed up to join the army. ”
The four of them looked at him dumbfounded.
That's ridiculous, isn't it? Who would go to the frontier to suffer for a bite to eat?
Hu Li didn't take it seriously, and then asked them, "What about you?" Did you make an appointment to make a contribution? ”
Cheng Tiezhu said with a smile: "What kind of meritorious service, it's just that I can't get used to seeing the Huns so brazen, and I want to help a little." ”
This time it was Hu Li's turn to be surprised.
"What? That's it? That's why you're here? ”
Cheng Tiezhu nodded.
Hu Li asked Taro again: "What about you?" ”
Hu Li had been observing the four of them for a long time, and he could see that this handsome young man was the head of these four people.
Taro smiled: "Since we are all here, if we don't do something, won't we suffer all this in vain?" ”
When Hu Li heard him say this, he clapped his hands and smiled: "I'm still worried that I have nothing to do here, but I can rest assured to see you." If you don't dislike it, I want to partner with you, and from today onwards we will be five melons on a vine! ”
Cheng Tiezhu and Cheng Gou looked at Taro, but Taro didn't rush to agree, but asked: "Brother Tai hasn't answered that question yet, have you been outside the city wall?" ”
Hu Li smiled and said, "I haven't been there, but I've heard of it." You've been here for a long time, and you know that. ”
Seeing that in winter, more and more people come to the bath pool.
At this time, Xianghua had to be busy so that her feet did not touch the ground, and she had to be busy with the shelter and food for these people, and she had to pay attention to the fact that they could not run around in the mountains, and she had to deal with some people who came to visit the mountain villa with curiosity, and she was also busy collecting money, but she really couldn't find the south, south, west, and north.
However, with the experience of the previous two years, Xianghua made up her mind early this morning and asked more people to help.
Today's Qingshan Village is different from the past, and the people in the village have no worries about hunger, no need to be tied to the fields, and have more time to do other things.
Xianghua thought that Aunt Tao was a member of the village chief's family, her words carried weight, and she knew the situation of each family, so it was most appropriate to arrange a place to live, and she would neither offend people nor favor one over the other.
As for some people who don't follow the rules and wander around the mountains, this has to be handed over to her uncle and aunt. Now the two of them really know what a family is, and they will take care of the two brothers in everything. Her uncle is clever, and her uncle is honest, so there is nothing difficult about the combination of these two people.
As for the people who come to the villa, Xianghua has now learned to send it away. After Donglin became famous, there were a few more people who came here, not to mention wasting time and energy to deal with them one by one, and it was completely useless, if Xianghua didn't want to deal with it, let Xiangmiao come out.
Xiang Miao is a well-known little pepper, but a few words, or drive away, or please come in, refreshing and neat. This is even more powerful than her sister.
As the reputation of Xiaocheng Villa gradually expanded, more and more people came, and Xianghua thought that the price should be raised during the peak season. In this way, you can make more money, and now there are more students in the school, and there are more things that need to be added. In the off-season, the price will be reduced back to the original price, so that the nearby villagers who are not so rich can also enjoy it.
As for collecting money, Donglin used to collect it, although he was not very old, he had a strict inheritance in arithmetic, and it was easy to put away the money. Xianghua thought that now this matter could be handed over to Ying'er.
When Xianghua discussed this matter with her family, several other people were puzzled.
Xiangmiao said: "Sister, this Ying'er has only been picked up for a few days, so you can rest assured that you will hand over such an important matter to her?" What if she secretly picked up some? ”
Cheng Linchang also said: "Yes." Although Ying'er, this kid doesn't look like a bad guy, after all, she hasn't known each other for a long time. ”
Donglin didn't object, but was a little worried: "Ying'er hasn't read since she was a child, and she can't even write, sister, should you really rest assured that she will settle accounts?" ”
Xianghua smiled: "I want you to continue to do it, but Mr. Yan told me that you and Deng'er have to prepare for next year's township exam." Time is tight and the task is heavy, I don't dare to bother you, and I can't ask Mr. Yan and Yun Niang for help. Grandpa and Grandma are capable, but they are older. Or, Dad, you will collect it with Ying'er for a period of time first? ”
Cheng Linchang was very unconfident in his ability to settle accounts, and waved his hand again and again: "If it doesn't work, why don't you collect it yourself, little flower?" ”
Xianghua said: "Dad, I have a lot of things on my side." The magistrate asked me to help me find a way to revitalize Baishi Village and Huangni Village. ”
Cheng Linchang was puzzled: "Doesn't this Baishi Village and Huangni Village have their village heads?" Besides, Lord Zhixian still has such a big master, why do you ask for a little girl like you? ”
Xianghua said with a smile: "They have tried to find a way to do this, but it doesn't work, and the first thing that is lacking is silver." I said, our family can pay. ”
Xiang Miao widened her eyes and shouted, "Sister! We have money now, but we don't have enough money to go out casually! What does Baishi Village and Huangni Village have to do with us, and why do we pay to help them? ”
Xianghua glanced at her with a smile, and did not rush to answer, but turned her head to ask Donglin.
"Donglin, can you figure out why I want to help them?"
Donglin pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "I thought of some, I don't know if it's right." ”
Xianghua looked at him with a gentle smile and asked him to talk about it.
"Now Taiping Town as a whole is not very rich, there are only three villages in our Qingshan Village, we are the only one who stands out, but the other two villages still can't even eat enough, if we turn a blind eye, it is a little unkind."
As soon as he said this, Cheng Linchang also understood, so he nodded.
Donglin continued: "On the other hand, people's hearts are unpredictable. Our village has money, but the neighbors are so hungry that they drink the northwest wind, and they can't say that they are red. It turned out that those robbers in Baishi Village were also villagers, and when evil was born, they embarked on the road of no return. Even if it's to sleep soundly, we should help them. ”
When Xiangmiao heard him say this, she couldn't help but shudder, and she felt scared when she remembered what happened to the Zhu family and the Wang family before, and hurriedly said to her sister: "Sister, you're right, we have to help with this favor!" It's just that the magistrate of the county should not open his mouth widely, and just take out all the money of our family at once. ”
Xianghua smiled: "Well, I have already told the magistrate that I will come step by step, and I will not go back to a few years ago." ”
Kanae smiled reassuringly.
