Generals take care of their children: The master mother leads the system to farm

The banks of the Leshui River are where a group of literati and scholars gather. Not all of them are great scholars of the time, but they are also scholars with some reputation in the local literati circle of Li County.

But even if Li Shixi was submerged in it, he could be easily found at a glance.

His calmness and indifference towards others attracted a lot of attention in the crowd.

Gu Chongguang looked at the child and said, "You don't mean that it is the only one that belongs to you."

Li Shixi opened his mouth for a long time before he lowered his head slightly under Gu Chongguang's oppressive gaze, "Yes, I still have my aunt and sister to take care of. If the road to the imperial examination goes smoothly, that would be great, and I can take better care of them.

If things don’t go well, that’s fine. I can already use an abacus and read account books. I’ll open shops for my aunt to earn money. With enough money to support me, my aunt and sister can live a very good life.”

Gu Chongguang was quite satisfied at first. This child was born with intelligence. He had no intention of sticking to one path until the end and could adjust his state at any time.

Reading can help people make fewer mistakes, not just improve their understanding.

When this mind is in harmony with the Tao, evil thoughts will not be able to take advantage of it.

Studying is not just for the purpose of studying for the imperial examinations, but also for improving one's moral character, reducing evil thoughts, making fewer mistakes, and taking fewer detours.

But the more he heard, the more Gu Chongguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Why do your aunt and Yu'er need you to take care of them? It's not like there's no one left in the Gu family."

Yu'er is the most pampered little girl in the Gu family. How can she not have a good life in the future?

Besides, it would be a waste of such a good seedling to spend all his time calculating on gold and silver.

Li Shixi was a little angry and even forgot to call himself a junior. "I do!"

After a pause, he added: "Aunt is willing too!"

Gu Chongguang laughed angrily. There might be many other explanations for this.

He rubbed his dizzy head, thinking that his eldest daughter-in-law might still have some resentment towards the Gu family, but he couldn't blame them.

Now that both adults and children are safe, it is the best outcome.

From now on, Jing Yan will have to take care of everything.

"Well, I won't argue with you about this. I just want to ask you, do you consider your uncle a family member?"

Speaking of Gu Jingyan, Li Shixi looked gloomy, "...Yes."

"Then aren't you also a member of the Gu family? We are all one family."

" ..."

Li Shixi changed the subject: "I'll bring you some water. Soak your feet before going to sleep. You'll feel more comfortable."

Gu Zhongguang half-squinted his eyes, saw the tip of the child's ears turn red, and chuckled, "Good boy."

This child really looks like his grandfather, very protective of his own faults and very easy to talk to.

After all, he is just a child...

After the banquet, Sun Daxing quickly took some water and waited outside the study door.

Li Shixi came out and saw him, and just let him in.

Sun Daxing put down the water and retreated wisely.

He didn't eavesdrop, but the conversation in the study was heard, and he couldn't help but listen.

Young Master Li has caught the master's eye. Who knows what a bright future he will have.

It is still uncertain whether there will be a future or not. At this moment, Li Shixi was in a dilemma as he looked at Gu Chongguang, who had fallen asleep with steady breathing.

I wanted to wake him up, but I couldn't bear to do so as he looked very tired.

If you don’t wake him up, what should I do with the water?

No more soaking your feet?

Hey……

Li Shixi folded his sleeves, squatted down, carefully lifted Gu Chongguang's feet onto his knees, took off his shoes and socks, and gently placed them into the foot bath tub.

Forget it, I'll serve you this time.

For the sake of him being the elder.

For he is the grandfather of fish.

.

In the main room of the inner courtyard, the fish had already fallen asleep.

Li Changle was talking in a low voice with Ma.

"Madam, Daxing said that the young master is sleeping in the courtyard of the study."

"... Shixi has to get up early tomorrow. Will he disturb the old man then?" How could an old man and a young boy become so familiar with each other so quickly?

"No, the master himself said that the young master should sleep with him in the study in the front yard." Ma smiled and said, "There are two guest rooms in the yard, so it won't be a problem."

"Besides, there are many rules in a wealthy family. When you are eight years old, you live in a courtyard by yourself. The eldest young master also moved to Qingxin Garden when he was eight years old. Our young master is also old enough. If you don't tell me, I will also want to talk to you later."

Li Changle glanced at Ma and roughly knew what she was planning.

More people feel that Li Shixi and Yu'er are cousins ​​and should avoid suspicion.

The fish is only as small as a human being, you are thinking too far ahead.

Forget it, just live in the same courtyard. The child can ask Gu Chongguang for help with homework on weekdays. He is a man of great knowledge.

"The farm will start construction tomorrow, and Brother Daxing will be busy supervising the work. You can ask Aunt Jiang to tell Uncle Liu to pick two smart people in the farm to work in the courtyard of the study. He has been in the farm for a long time and knows which people are reliable."

"Okay, I'll remember it."

"By the way, where's Thirteen? I didn't see him out tonight."

"Before we went to the water hole, he went out again with a bag of food on his back. He said he would be gone for a while and told us not to worry about him."

Ma's tone was flat, and he really thought that this person was a cold and indifferent person.

Li Changle was stunned when he heard this. Could this guy run back to Northern Mongolia?

If I go back to Northern Meng now, wouldn't I be sending my head to the Crown Prince of Northern Meng?

"System..."

"Host, the system did not receive the task data."

"Is there really a follow-up task for 1 contribution points? Is the reward still 1?"

System: "...No. There will just be a mission failure warning before the contribution points are recycled."

Li Changle covered his chest: "...So, this time, there is no danger to life?"

"No."

Then she would be relieved.

Contribution points are one thing, but she has been taking in the people she rescued for more than a month, so they can be considered friends after all.

She would still feel sad if she lost her life again.

Ma also went downstairs to rest.

Li Changle was still flipping through the account book on the desk.

The small condiment packs are in great demand, and two large orders have come in from the south in the past two days.

A few days ago, someone from Liping said that he had used a farm of his own in the western suburbs as a workshop for making marinated ingredients.

In the future, if there are customers coming, they can be taken there directly to pick up the goods.

Later, Wang Dahu and his brother also transported the raw materials for the marinade to the workshop.

Anyone working in the warehouse in Leshan Zhuangzi who is willing to go there can go directly and continue to work. In the workshop, men and women work separately, and there are two managers in each male and female workroom.

The workshop also has accommodation facilities, and you can apply for housing. The monthly accommodation fee of 30 cents will be deducted from your wages.

This is purely to take care of the many helpers who used to work on the farm, and the accommodation fee is also a token of appreciation.

For example, someone who lives far away, like Hu Liangmu’s second sister-in-law.

There were several women like this in Leshan Village, and Li Ping had taken Li Changle's feelings into consideration. Otherwise, if she moved the workshop, she would have to lay off several female workers who were relying on their wages to supplement their family income, and she couldn't bear it.

Recently the village has resumed supplying fish to Wanjia Restaurant. Every day the restaurant's driver, Lao Yu, comes with a bullock cart to transport a large wooden barrel of fish, which are then raised in water and taken away.

In places not near the sea, people mostly eat river fish, but the river fish provided by Leshan Zhuangzi weigh more than ten kilograms, the meat is delicious, and there is no earthy smell when eating, which is very rare.

Anyone who has eaten it in a restaurant can feel the difference in taste.

The restaurant kitchen may not necessarily use a large bucket of fish every day, but one bucket is definitely not enough to sell.

The servants of the wealthy families were lining up.

Unfortunately, the village only provides one bucket per day.

So it is very popular.

It’s not that they don’t know where the fish comes from, it’s just…

None of them could get close to that village.

Whenever someone tried to enter the village, they would be blocked by flying stones and their entire legs would feel excruciating pain.

A servant went back to report to the master of the house. The master thought something was amiss and sent people to investigate. It didn't take long to find the culprit, and it led to Gu Jingyan.

Gu Jingyan is definitely not in Li County, but the people in the manor must have a close relationship with Gu Jingyan.

In fact, it was not hidden. People who were interested had long discovered that Li Changle frequently went in and out of Leshan Manor, and many people had seen Li Ping seeing Li Changle off at the door of the restaurant. His attitude was as if he was holding the God of Wealth.

Moreover, every day Old Yu's ox cart would carry a large barrel of food from Leshan Manor and go straight into the courtyard gate of the back kitchen.

Needless to say, everyone already knows what it is.

After noting these, the existence of Leshan Zhuangzi has become even more talked about.

Some people even thought of marinade bags, vegetables from earlier times, and fruits that people still ask about from time to time...

They all came from that village, right?

Until recently, there were almost no secrets in Leshan Manor.

The people who go in to work may not have bad intentions, but everyone has a desire to share. Whatever they see or hear, once they leave the village, it’s like being blown away by the wind.

After all, helpers cannot do their work with their eyes blindfolded, so there is no way to prevent it.

Once the marinade package workshop, which uses Wanjia Restaurant as its signature business, opens, the marinade package business in Liping is expected to become popular in the future.

After reading the account book, Li Changle took out the blueprint of the villa.

Check the parts that have been completed so far, and you will find that the renovation project of Zhuangzi has been almost completed.

The craftsmen at the foot of the mountain were busy with the final finishing work, and the few people in the village who knew carpentry also went to help.

The craftsmen in Xiaoleshan are already doing the final interior decoration.

The slope from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain has also been made flat and easy to walk on.

Judging from the situation, once the finishing work is completed, we can find an auspicious day next month to open for business. Next month, many agricultural products will mature, and the product varieties in the farm will become lively.

The ordinary seeds produced by the system can be harvested in two months, and then they can be harvested again in two months...

Regardless of whether this makes sense or not, the real stuff is there and you are welcome to study it.

If they can figure it out, they win.

Currently, the following are open in the village: fish and shrimp pond, barbecue restaurant, strawberry garden, vineyard, tea house, ecological supermarket, rice village, secret garden (inn) on Xiaole Mountain...

Next month, the lotus pond and Bijia Mountain will also be open.

Hot pot restaurants can also be opened~

Li Changle spread out the letter paper, held her pen and began to write back to Gu Jingyan.

She can only write in plain language. It is impossible to expect her to be meticulous and eloquent in her writing. She will never reach that level in her lifetime.

I wrote two or three articles in a very fluent manner, folded them, put them in an envelope, and gave it to Leng Yi to send out early the next morning.

When Li Shixi woke up early the next day, he had already been taken to the farm by Leng Er.

After the daily morning exercise routine, I am always exhausted and soaked. I have to take a shower, have breakfast, and then rush to school.

I've been running laps recently and have started tying sandbags on my legs again.

After Li Changle had breakfast, he watched Li Shixi get on the carriage to the school. He handed the letter he had written last night to Leng Yi, looked at him curiously and asked:

"What kind of kung fu are you two teaching him? He's been on the run for several months. Are you teaching him some unique skill to escape at the first sign of trouble?"

Leng Yi answered seriously: "Madam, you are wise. The young master is learning the Flowing Cloud Step. Its steps are as light as the wind and snow, coming and going without leaving any trace."

Li Changle: "..."

Good guy!

It really is a method of escape!

envy!

Her eyes sparkled. "Can I learn the skill of floating on water?"

Floating on water...

As expected, I have read too many storybooks and I can’t even tell the difference between reality and fiction…

Leng Yi secretly complained, but he didn't hit people directly in the heart, and learned to be roundabout and tactful: "... Madam, it's not a bad idea if you want to learn it, but, when practicing Liuyun Footwork, the basic skills are particularly important, so..."

Li Changle stopped him from continuing in time, "Forget it, forget it. I am not worthy of this kind of skill. I'd better leave it to Shixi alone."

Let her do horse stance and run Zhuangzi like Li Shixi every day?

She still hopes to rely on the carriage for transportation.

Is she that diligent?

nonexistent.

Even if she gets up early, she doesn't get up to work.

It's just that my biological clock has been playing tricks on me lately.

Besides, I had told Ma last night about inviting Boss Li over, and he had been thinking about it.

"How's his training going?" He's been running for a few months, so he should have some results, right?

Leng Yizhi told her: "Young Master is very hardworking. With time, he will be able to master the Flowing Cloud Step."

Well, it seems that the road to mastery is a long and arduous one, and running around the village is just an appetizer, and there will probably be more ruthless things to come.

"Take it easy, she's still a child, she's still growing, don't push her too hard."

"...Yes, Madam Young Master."

Li Changle went to the front yard and Li Nanxing was already waiting in the hall.

"Madam Li, are you feeling unwell?"

Li Changle was startled and said quickly: "It's not me. It's Yu'er's grandfather."

Li Nanxing suddenly realized, "I was saying that Madam Li has been full of energy and vigor lately, so she must be recovering."

The Li Changle today is completely different from the Li Changle of the same time last year, except for his face.

No wonder Li Nanxing said that.

The truth is that since Li Changle came here, she never thought of deliberately imitating the original owner and restoring her.

She is not a gentle and virtuous ancient lady.

She felt that everyone around her now accepted her current state.

After all, before he lay bedridden in Lushui Village, few people really understood the original owner.

So the change was not that obvious, except for my good mother-in-law who I was close to during that period.
