To Rule in a Turbulent World

After eating a round at noon that day, the soldiers were drunk in the afternoon, carrying shovels and hoes, and went to open a canal for You Miao. They didn't come back until sunset, and You Miao asked Li Zhuang's wife and Zhu Tang's wife to come over to cook. The soldiers After they got the food, they didn't need to set up a tent anymore, so they looked for a dilapidated room in Shen Yuan and made a bed on the floor.

At night, You Miao lights up the lamp, reads books and draws pictures, and there is still snoring outside. There are 100 people living in Shenyuan. It is full of people, which shows how big it was in its heyday.

The fact that the Yangzhou Army came to help open the canal alarmed the people in Anlu and Guozhuang, especially the people in Anlu Village. The canal leads to the big lake in the depression, and after the big lake is filled, the water flows through the stream to Anlu Village downstream.

With this in mind, what You Miao is doing is a project that benefits the livelihood of the people in Jiangnan.The head of Anlu Village sent another forty live chickens and two hundred catties of eggs as thanks.You Miao honestly accepted all of them, and added another meal for the soldiers during the Chinese New Year.

Jiangbo Villa was full of people all night, and there were many more people. People who came in and out were all people. When they saw You Miao, they would nod and say hello. You Miao really began to feel that there were more people. It's about giving off children and having children, and the incense is strong or something.

Five days later, nearly half of the canal had been dug, and it was estimated that it would be dug into the lake in another five days. , The moat in Yangzhou Mansion was dug by my buddies, if you dig this canal, you can use it for 200 years."

You Miao has been smiling these days, and got acquainted with this group of soldiers. Although they are all rough people, they have a rough taste. , I don’t even know what it will become, but it will take seven to eighty years.”

Captain Wang said with a heroic smile: "In 50 years, as long as the elder brother is still alive and the canal is broken, you come to me, and the old bone crawler will dig another one for you."

You Miao was standing by the canal to watch the work, and someone in the Shen Garden called again, saying that a visitor had arrived.You Miao asked Li Zhifeng to watch here, and then went back to meet the guest.

Walking to the gate of Shen Yuan, and seeing a carriage from Biyu Villa, You Miao's heart skipped a beat, thinking hey, old man finally thinks of himself?

It has been nearly a month since we left Biyu Mountain Villa, and there are still 70 taels of silver left. You Miao is thinking about when to sell some valuables in Shenyuan, either the remaining few calligraphy and paintings, or The wine hidden in the cellar, or the fox fur he brought back from outside the Great Wall in those big boxes... What does it mean that the old man is here?Send him money?

You Miao didn't want to see him a little bit, walked into the second gate, and saw a person standing outside the screen wall, but it was You Hange, You Dechuan didn't come.

You Miao's face brightened a little, and she asked, "What are you doing here?"

You Hange was looking at the writing on the screen wall, saw You Miao came back, and said with a smile: "Why do you have so many soldiers in your family?"

You Miao said: "A friend called here, help me open a canal, and by the way, practice in winter, how is your literacy learning?"

You Hange said: "I read a few characters and learned from the teacher... This is a heart character, this is... a word for 'spring'."

"The green spring waves under the bridge of sadness, it was once the shadow of Jing Hong." You Miao said angrily, "Come in."

You Hange smiled and said: "Good poem, I heard people say a few days ago that the Sanqi Chang Lieutenant of the Yangzhou Military Defense Department has come to visit, it's not difficult for you."

"Nothing." You Miao replied casually, and led You Hange into the main room. The door has been painted and installed, and the tables and chairs have been refurbished. With a piece of tiger skin, there are two deer heads, one male and one female, hanging on the walls on both sides, which is very grand.

You Hange sat down beside him, and You Miao said, "Li Zhifeng!" Then realizing that Li Zhifeng was not there, he got up to get the tea by himself.

You Hange said: "Father told me to bring a few people here, so that you don't have to do anything. I'm afraid you have already bought a servant girl here, so you didn't bring them here. When you go back, you will call a few people and let them do it on their own." Come."

"No need." You Miao was upset when she heard this, and said, "It's not easy to use when you come here. It's annoying to stare."

You Hango said, "Why don't you go and buy a few?"

You Miao laughed and said, "No money."

You Hange pondered for a while, and said: "I spent all the money last time? But yes, you have to tidy up this villa, and there are many places where money is spent." As he said that he wanted to take out the money, You Miao said, "It's funny. You are playing, too lazy to buy, I am alone, what do you need so many people to serve? It is not interesting if there are too many people."

You Hange said: "I know you spend a lot of money..." He took out a small cloth bag and said with a smile: "My brother didn't save much money on weekdays, so it's not that my father asked me to give it to you..."

Looking at this appearance, You Miao felt a little unreasonable, and said, "What are you doing, I'm not a beggar, you can put it away."

You Hange wanted to insist, but You Miao was a little angry, feeling that he felt sorry for himself, so he took the money specially, and said: "Take it back, there is really no shortage."

You Hango had no choice but to take it back.

You Miao looked at You Hange, and suddenly felt a little pity for him. You Miao could tell whether a person was sincerely treating him well. When he left the villa last time, the bag of silver that You Hange gave him was probably from him. Savings for two years.

If there is no such thing as a father, if You Hange is a cousin, You Miao should treat him very well and treat him as a brother, or if You Hange lives in as a bastard, You Miao may not be too happy at first , but also take care of it from time to time.

However, the trouble is that You Dechuan's affairs are too nasty, which makes You Miao feel sick every time he sees You Hange, even though he really doesn't do anything.

"I'll make a cup of tea for you to drink." You Miao said casually, opened the tea pot, and stirred the tea leaves.

Daliang met him outside the door, and said with a smile, "Young Master You, can we also ask for a cup of tea for those who do the hard work?"

You Miao said: "Take a break, you've worked hard, come in and sit down."

Daliang hurriedly said: "Don't dirty the place, just pour us a sip of tea, it's bitter, I've never tasted the tea from your rich family."

You Miao: "Hey, rich and noble family." After saying that, he smiled, and he didn't know whether he was laughing at this or himself, so You Hange was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, You Miao didn't laugh at him with a gun and stick. He moved, stirred the tea leaves, and said: "When the third royal highness wants to invite me to make a pot of tea, I won't do it."
