Chapter 579 Repair the bridge and repair the road

But those who have accepted everyone's help will not forget these things! Few people in the mountains can read and write, but they have taken these favors to heart and will definitely find a way to repay them!

When Xia Kai heard this, since he was following the local customs, he could only give up!

In the past, some people wanted to build a house on this mountain, but they thought that the stones under the foundation could not be dug up, so they had to give up.

To the surprise of the villagers, digging up the floating soil and gravel in the place designated by Xia Kai, this hillside is a natural house foundation, the upper and lower entrances are just the height of a house, and from the front, it is a two-story building.

After the foundation is laid, the shelves of the room are built with wood and stone, and some materials need to be purchased, and stones and clay are everywhere here, but there is no need to buy them.

However, wood cannot be cut and used on the spot, and dry wood is required. Fortunately, the villagers of Sunjia Village rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and while cutting wood for their families, they have spare timber at home, and the price is quite cheap.

Xia Kai buys timber from various households, all of which are paid at the market price, this time it is a transaction, and the villagers do not shirk the money, but they feel that they have taken advantage of the price and refuse to ask for so much money.

But Xia Kai said that he still took advantage of it, because he saved the freight, and the implication was that if the villagers did not trade at this price, they could only buy it at the Huayuan City Market, and the villagers took the money with peace of mind.

Walls were built with stones, and walls were made of planks. Xia Kai didn't have to worry about these jobs, Sun Leqing led everyone, and used a kind of rattan and glutinous rice to boil the juice and yellow mud together, used to build a stone wall, very strong!

In fact, the quality of this house really doesn't have much to do with Xia Kai, he and He Yuanying can arrange a formation and cast a spell to make the room extremely solid!

But Xia Kai's residence, Sun Leqing obviously won't cut corners, he commanded the villagers to build a sturdy and beautiful house!

After more than a month, the house was completed, although it looked simple and unusual from the outside, the shape and structure of the room were simple and elegant, revealing a bookish atmosphere, and Xia Kai was very satisfied with it.

......

After He Yuanying and Xia Kai separated, they did not rush to Xia's house immediately, but meditated in a secret place deep on the top of the mountain, and kept an eye on the speed of building the house.

On this day, He Yuanying estimated that the house would be completed in a few days, so he went to Niyang County.

He Yuanying did a good job in the Xia family, just in time for the completion of the house on the second day, she took the seven or eight subordinates rationed by the Xia family, drove two carriages, pulled furniture and luggage, and came to Sunjia Village.

Because the road was separated by a small river, the villagers worked together to help carry the contents of the carriage to the floor.

He Yuanying led the chef to cook, and Xia Kai commanded people to place furniture, clean up, etc., and it only took half a day, and more than 20 houses were cleaned up neatly, all of which came in handy.

At that time, there was a distinction between inside and outside, and there were only ten houses in the first entry, and the people's residences, kitchens, living rooms, and guest rooms were all in the first entry, and only He Yuanying and his wife lived in the second entry.

The yard is not small, and although there is no fence around it, it is also enclosed with a bamboo fence, and it looks quite safe.

After everything was cleaned up, Xia Kai began to read and practice calligraphy, and his grasp of time was very accurate, and his morning reading every morning became the bell for the villagers to wake up the children.

Xia Kai's ears and eyes were sharp, and he could hear their strange shouts: "Big fool, get up and herd the cattle, Mr. Xia has read the book several times......." Mr. Xia is studying, and the second dog is up and ...... to "

The hostess He Yuanying did not hide in the house to embroider the female red, but led a few subordinates to plant flowers and plants in front of and behind the house.

The other subordinates bought fine solid wood, invited a few master carpenters, and built three large wooden bridges at several main points of the river, and the wooden bridges were very strong, and they could walk on horse-drawn carriages, and they also made guardrails.

Along the embankment of the small river, which is the main road where the people of Sunjia Village enter and exit, the bridge was repaired, and Xia Kai led the people to make up the road in his spare time, and made up for the defects in the road.

Xia Kai also led his servants to plant willow trees on the side of the road, which could provide shade for pedestrians and prevent the river embankment from collapsing.

Xia Kai's experience in Hongchen is mainly to improve his state of mind, to put it mysteriously, it is also a process of accumulating merits, in this mountain village, building bridges and repairing roads is a great good deed.

Doing good deeds can accumulate merit, but in towns, there are many rich people who do good deeds and it is a bit of a bad thing, and there are some so-called "good families" in those towns, and every time they do good, they take out some charity money for disaster relief, which is actually to make friends with the government.

Of course, there are also some rich people who are sincere in doing good deeds, because they have done too many bad things in the process of making money, and they hope to use some money to "break the fortune and avoid disasters" and seek peace of mind!

But whether it is true or false, as long as you do good deeds, you still have merit!

After Xia Kai and He Yuanying lived here, they did not really live in seclusion, Xia Kai learned Chinese and calligraphy every day, and occasionally continued to repair bridges and roads.

He Yuanying led those subordinates every day to reclaim the land everywhere on the South Mountain, planting all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and the entire Sunjia Village, in the blooming season, emitted a refreshing fragrance of flowers and plants.

Maybe it's the relationship between identity and family, Xia Kai's family has something, and the villagers are eager to help, but they don't have much interaction on weekdays.

In an emergency, the villagers will still come to Mr. Xia for ideas, after all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the scholar is also a great person, who seems to be omnipotent!

Here is a very strict pursuit of "show talent does not go out, can know the world!"

In this mountain village, the common major event is illness, some because the child is naughty and breaks his arm and leg, and some is old and frail and suddenly seriously ill, they will come to Mr. Xia.

They are really right to do this, Mr. Xia is really omnipotent, especially his medical skills!

To talk about medical skills and alchemy, it is not Xia Kai's strength, and it is not suitable to practice medicine.

But when he chose the means of making a living, Xia Kai still chose to practice medicine to save people, mainly to quickly accumulate merits!

In the secular world, there is a saying that "saving a life is better than creating a seven-level floating slaughter", which shows that it is a great merit for a doctor to help the world and save people.

Secondly, because of He Yuanying's medical skills and alchemy skills, Xia Kai practiced the art of bone grafting a little, and then added the elixir refined by He Yuanying, it is really not difficult for him to become a famous doctor!
