After time travel, he devoted himself to helping his father with his career.

Ming Jia took Mrs. Yan to visit the courtyard, while Xie Boyuan and Xiao Qingshan were busy leading people to search the city at night. Mrs. Shui arranged for a little maid to accompany Mr. Dong to do needlework, and she also went out to accompany the young lady to stroll around the yard.

After Shi Yushu passed the scholar examination last year, the Shi family moved back to Chuanzhou City with Shi Yushu. Mrs. Shi originally wanted to follow her to take care of her son, but was stopped by Captain Shi.

Shi Xianwei was worried about his wife disciplining his son, so he directly told his wife that if she wanted to return to Sichuan to take care of her son, she would provide him with accommodation in the academy. Let his son live in the academy to study for a long time and go home two days a month.

As for his parents, Lieutenant Shixian also gave the same advice. Every six months, he would take a test to teach his son. If his results were not satisfactory, or he heard some bad behavior from his son.

He directly transferred his son back to Quxian Academy to study. The old couple of the Shi family had another very important task when they returned to Chuanzhou City, which was to prepare for Shi Yushu's wedding.

Shi Yushu has been engaged for a long time and is scheduled to get married after the spring plowing next year. Now is the time to get ready. So now the aunt of the Shi family in the backyard has moved to a larger yard with her concubine, and Miss Shi has finally moved into the yard she likes as she wished.

For this reason, Dong was a little dissatisfied for her daughter, but Mingjia quickly persuaded her. She doesn't really care which courtyard she lives in, and after Miss Shi moves out, she can have the entire courtyard to herself.

Ming Jia now wakes up every morning and performs a set of sword skills in his yard, moves his body, and then goes to the front yard to practice martial arts with Cheng Si or Thirteen. Thirteen is now basically Mingjun’s exclusive bodyguard, and Mingjun’s kung fu is also taught by Thirteen.

Soon Mingjia took her two wives and several maids to look around the entire backyard. Mingjia pointed out a few places where people could easily hide or where the walls were relatively low, and told them to focus on patrolling them at night.

In the end, Mingjia still felt a little uneasy. Mingjia looked up at the fence in the backyard, "This wall is too short. A taller adult man should be able to climb in easily!"

Mingjia suddenly thought of the high school he attended in his previous life. The walls were more than two meters high, filled with broken glass, and the barbed wire fence was even higher. In addition, there are monitors every ten meters.

Thinking of this, Mingjia felt that if she was not monitored, it would be too late to customize the barbed wire fence. But it seems it’s not too late to add some sharp things to the wall.

"Mr. Shui, go borrow the Shi family's carriage and go with our carriage to go to the porcelain and kiln place outside the city and buy two carts of fragments." Ming Jia suddenly ordered to Mrs. Shui.

Then Mingjia continued to reply to Mrs. Yan: "Mother Yan took my jade pendant to Shiqulou to withdraw some silver and buy more glutinous rice or glutinous rice flour."

Mrs. Yan asked if she needed anything else to say to Shopkeeper Li. Mingjia didn't want to cause trouble. She believed that Shopkeeper Li knew how to cooperate with the search. Hearing this, Mrs. Yan quickly bowed and went to Shiqulou.

It would be best if nothing happens in Qu County, but if something happens, the county government will definitely be the most dangerous place. Near noon, two more government officials came back from Linxian County to deliver news. The county they went to was not very good either.

The magistrate of a county is used to enjoying things. He didn't even go out in this kind of weather, but he didn't feel hurt at all. But no one needed to take the lead in making trouble, and the people were already complaining.

Nothing happened in another county town, but the county magistrate had taken people out to inspect the damage for three days and had not returned yet. The yamen servant quickly went to the local county magistrate to explain the situation and asked the county magistrate to send someone to respond.

Mingjia calculated based on the location of the county seat reported by several government officials that the Yelu tribe's plan should be within these few days.

Because at present, they knew that the earliest incident occurred in the county seat. If they sent a letter to the state city as soon as possible, the state city would already know that a county magistrate was attacked, but they didn't know whether the magistrate would take it seriously.

Mingjia finally returned to the study. She had to calm down and think about what she had missed. Soon, many people from the county government came back one after another.

Mingjia listened to the sounds outside and didn't go out to take a look. There was no need for her, the Xiao family's daughter, to do anything at this time. She only needs to wait in the study room for her brother Mingjun to come back from the academy or to come back with her master, Mr. Xie.

The first person to come back was Mrs. Yan who was buying glutinous rice and glutinous rice flour. Not only did Mrs. Yan come back herself, she also brought back a mason from the county town who was recommended by Shopkeeper Li.

Mingjia didn't expect Mrs. Yan to guess what she wanted to do, which saved them a lot of time studying the ratio of glutinous rice to yellow mud.

Mingjia directly asked Mrs. Yan to take a few boys in the backyard to follow the mason's instructions and add debris to the more dangerous places she pointed out in the afternoon. Mrs. Yan heard this and asked, "Miss, the person who went to buy broken porcelain pieces hasn't come back yet!"

"There are a lot of clay pots and earthenware jars that I used to make cans piled up behind the kitchen. I smashed them all and put them to use first!" When walking in the garden in the morning, Mingjia planned to use up the piled jars.

In the end, Mingjia did not forget to tell Mrs. Yan: "The yellow mud will be dug in the open space in the backyard. At worst, there will be multiple ponds in the county government to store water." Mingjia was really worried about sending people outside the city to collect the yellow mud and wasting time. All delayed.

Mrs. Yan ordered people to work in the afternoon. Mingjia saw that it was almost time and was going back to the main courtyard for lunch. Mingjia felt that this morning was longer than the whole day.

Mrs. Dong was a little confused, why her daughter suddenly said she wanted to dig a pond in the backyard. Mingjia felt that she couldn't hide the groundbreaking in the backyard from her mother, otherwise she would have informed her in advance: "Well, the weather is too hot this year, so I want to dig a pond to store water and raise some fish!"

"You have to discuss this with your father. Do you need to hire professional people to dig, just like a well-drilling team?" Ms. Dong didn't understand her daughter's whim, but as long as her husband agreed, she thought it would be fine. .

Mingjia guessed her mother's attitude and quickly said: "Dad has already agreed. After all, it is not appropriate to have too many foreign men in the backyard of the county government office. So I found a knowledgeable master and started working with a few boys in our family slowly." Just dig it.”

At the same time, Mingjia was complaining in her heart: I hope it’s not just a small pit, otherwise we’d really have to find someone to dig a pond.

When Mrs. Dong heard that her husband agreed, she naturally had no objection. In order to allow Mrs. Dong to stay in the main courtyard in the afternoon, Mingjia said, "Mom, I recently embroidered a handkerchief. Some of the stitches were not done well. If you are free this afternoon, can you help me correct it?"

After speaking, Mingjia glanced at Mrs. Yan and motioned to Mrs. Yan to go back and get the handkerchief she had embroidered. Mrs. Yan looked at the young lady's eyes, quickly lowered her head and left.

The lady has only embroidered one handkerchief in the past year, and the pattern is said to be an orchid. But if you just look at the handkerchief, it has nothing to do with orchids. If I really take it over, I'm afraid my wife will have to embroider a new veil.

Mingjia also saw Mrs. Yan lowering her head hurriedly. "Hmm~ o(*￣▽￣*)o" It's okay, my own mother is not embarrassed.
