A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Dawn has just broken and the morning fog is light.

Today is the day to hold the kiln opening ceremony.

The offerings have all been washed, and the altar has been moved to the kiln by workers to place it in advance.

On such an important day, mother and son all changed into their best clothes. Although Li Zheng and Aunt Ma did not have new clothes, they also chose the most decent and clean clothes to put on.

The kiln opening ceremony was a big event for the villagers. In addition to the fifteen workers from the brick kiln factory, other villagers also came to join in the fun, leaving only a few people at the patrol team and the ancestral hall.

Chen Changsheng glanced at the bracelet. The appointment time with Bai Xiao was getting closer and closer, but she hadn't seen him yet.

Maybe he had something to do at the last moment and didn't have time to send someone to inform him.

Anyway, we can't miss the auspicious time, let's hold the ceremony first.

By the Chenjia River.

On the altar table were a pig's head, five pounds of mutton, a chicken and a large bowl of wine.

After everyone arrived, Chen Changsheng and Li Zheng slowly arrived.

Chen Changsheng and Li Zheng stood at the front. Fifteen workers stood neatly in two rows. Aunt Ma stood aside with her head held high, and the outermost circle was surrounded by villagers watching the excitement.

"I heard that there is a kiln opening ceremony to be held today. Our brick kiln factory in Chenjiacun has been built."

"What is the brick kiln in our Chenjiacun? It's obviously the brick kiln of Sister-in-law Chen's family."

"Sister-in-law Chen is really awesome. She built a brick kiln to make a fortune."

"We are not destined to make a fortune, but Sister-in-law Chen is still thinking about us after eating meat. My men have been selected to work as workers in the kiln factory, and now they can drink broth."

The others looked at the woman with envy.

Everyone was talking to each other, some were happy for Chen Changsheng, some were envious, and some were proud of being able to work in the brick kiln.

Looking at the crowded group of people below, Li Zheng coughed and said loudly, "Be quiet, everyone has seen it. There are three brick kilns built in our village, and many of them are working in the brick kilns." I have become a worker in the factory. This is all thanks to the great blessing mother-in-law. Now please let the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family give us a speech."

Chen Changsheng walked up to the people generously. She looked at everyone with a smile, and then spoke slowly, "I will just say a few words today. The brick kiln has been built and the workers have been recruited. We are just waiting for the bricks to be fired.

This brick is difficult to say, after all, no one has fired it before, but I have invited a skilled master to work with us. As long as everyone is willing to learn and endure hardship, and work hard for twenty days, bricks will be produced.

Of course, I invite you to work because I trust people in our village. I hope that everyone who works here can work conscientiously for me and bake the bricks well. I will also pay your wages on time.

If you do a good job, in addition to your salary, you will receive additional rewards every month. On the other hand, if someone is sneaky and lazy, he won't be able to work here for long. "

She glanced at Aunt Ma and continued, "Aunt Ma was specially invited by me to take care of the kiln. If you have any questions, you can talk to her first."

Everyone looked at Aunt Ma, and some were still whispering.

"Ma Daqiang, your mother-in-law is so awesome now, she's starting to take care of people."

"Brother Daqiang, I have such a good relationship with you. Next time I recruit workers, you have to help me talk to my sister-in-law and say good things."

Ma Daqiang, a foreigner, was suddenly attracted so enthusiastically. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only deal with it with a smile.

Chen Changsheng continued, "I have finished speaking. Next, I would like to ask Uncle Li Zheng to say a few words for all of us."

Li Zheng looked at Chen Changsheng with a complicated expression: [It is truly an honor to ask this old man to speak on such an important project. 】

Then you won't be polite.

He quickly climbed onto a big rock and looked at the people below. He was still a little excited, but he slightly suppressed his trembling voice. "To be honest, I'm still a little excited."

There was a burst of laughter from below.

"The eldest sister-in-law of the Chen family used the money to build a brick kiln in our village and gave us such high wages. We must not let her down.

For many years now in Chenjia Village, every household has built a yellow adobe thatched house. On a windy and rainy day, several people were crushed to death, which is not easy. Now that there is a brick kiln factory, when we have money, we can build brick houses. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone below became excited.

"Uncle Li Zheng, how much does this brick cost? Can we afford it?"

Li Zheng said loudly, "I can afford it. Sister-in-law Chen and my old man have discussed it together. The price for the bricks produced in this kiln to the people in our village is two cents for five red bricks, and another five thousand bricks are ordered." And give me an extra hundred bricks.”

Those workers who entered the brick kiln factory calculated that if they worked for 400 yuan a month for a few months this year, they might be able to build a house.

If, as Sister-in-law Chen said, there were extra rewards for good work, then the house could be built earlier.

The days seem to be moving forward.

"We have had a lot of hard times before, but now we are really going to start living a good life."

When Li Zheng mentioned something emotional, he even wiped the moist corners of his eyes.

In order not to embarrass Old Chen, Chen Changsheng had no choice but to take the lead in applauding. Seeing her like this, other villagers and workers were infected by the atmosphere and couldn't help but clapped their hands violently.

Chen Lizheng was further enhanced by this atmosphere, his face glowing red and he shouted with enthusiasm, "We will officially open the kiln today!"

Everyone applauded non-stop, "Okay, okay."

"Dafu Niang, come and worship."

Chen Changsheng and Li Zheng, each holding a stick of incense, first offered sacrifices to heaven, then to earth, and finally to the ancestors of the Chen family. After all the rituals were completed, they placed the incense in the stove and turned to face the crowd. .

Chen Changsheng spoke slowly and gave an order, "Open the kiln!"

Everyone carried bundles of firewood and put them into the cave. Chen Changsheng poured some gasoline that she had prepared in advance, took the torch sent by his eldest son and put it on the firewood. The cave suddenly burst into flames.

At this time, Chen Erlu also brought a bunch of firecrackers, lit them with sparks and threw them out. Others immediately jumped ten feet away, and the firecrackers kept crackling, which was very lively.

Other people also shouted, and everyone was enthusiastic.

Chen Changsheng looked through the crowd and was attracted by the last two figures in the crowd.

Aren't those County Magistrate Bai and Master Zhan?

When did they come?

Chen Changsheng whispered a few words to Li Zheng, and Li Zheng looked towards the end, and then his eyes suddenly opened.

Oh my god, it’s the county magistrate!

The magistrate of Baishui County actually came to their Chenjia Village!

Li Zheng was unsteady and almost fell off the stone, but luckily he stabilized himself in the end.

He hurried towards the county magistrate to greet him, but saw Magistrate Bai making a silent gesture towards him.
