Chapter 55: Liu Yan's day...

"Mom... Tongtong is not full... Why don't you let Tongtong eat?"

"You can't eat... If you eat too much, you will gain weight and will be the same as your brother..." Liu Yan hugged her only daughter and shrank into a ball, as if she was holding the last bit of hope...

But soon, the terrifying scene appeared again. The well-behaved and cute daughter was dragged away in front of her and tried her best to stop her. Even if she turned into a paste, as long as her daughter could stay...

But she couldn't make the decision. She was so humbly that she wanted to exchange her daughter for her life. She could only watch the final hope disappear, and watch the hateful little evil ghost tease her in front of her with her daughter's head...

"call!!"

Once again, Liu Yan woke up from a nightmare, looking at the dark sky outside, gasping for breath...

"Have you had a nightmare again?" In the body, the green snake's voice slowly rang: "But it is, the weak existence is not qualified to sleep..."

Liu Yan didn't say anything. She looked at the sky outside. After estimating about the hour, she sat cross-legged on the bed and used the innate skills left to her by Jiang Sheng!

Grandpa said the words of Green Snake a long time ago. Although the words are different, the general meaning is the same: weak is the original sin!

The Wang family was shared by evil wolves because of their weakness, and their elder brother was usurped by their concubine's family business by their concubine's son because of their weakness. Because of their weakness, even the corpse of the young child could not be preserved!

Weakness...is original sin, this principle... I understand it too late!

The time for practicing qigong always passes quickly. Not long after entering the good situation, a familiar voice came from outside the house.

"Sister Yan, it's time to have a meal. There were eggs this morning. You have a lot of food recently. I've touched you a few more!"

Liu Yan opened her eyes and the rising sun had risen outside the window. She slowly stood up and opened the door. In front of her, she was the familiar and funny face of Sigou.

The man was very attentive to deliver three meals to her every day, regardless of wind and rain. This attentiveness made her very familiar with her. Her husband was once such a simple and honest guy.

At that time, my family was undergoing a drastic change and was left helpless. Although I held my own status and had a noble status, I was still moved by my honest tenderness after being worn out for a long time. At that time, I was thinking that being an ordinary person, forgetting what happened before, and living a small life as an ordinary person is actually good...

But now I won’t think so anymore!

"Thank you..." Liu Yan's voice was still cold: "You don't have to send things over every time I'll go to the cafeteria when I'm on order."

"Hey, it's okay, it won't take much effort anyway..." Sigou smiled indifferently: "Eat quickly, it will get cold later..."

Liu Yan nodded and took the food box indifferently. Her attitude was still like a piece of Han Bing that could not be applied to hot. Her attitude was always obvious, but if the other party was persistent, she couldn't do anything about it. She would not choose such a person again.

Sigou seemed to have no concern about the other party's cold attitude at all, but instead chatted about family matters while the other party was having a meal: "Does Sister Yan know? Mr. Hong told me today that I have the talent of carpenters and asked me to go to the carpenters' workshop to help. What do you think?"

"It's great..." Liu Yan lowered her head to drink porridge, and recalled the old craftsman named Mr. Hong in her mind. The attitude of the adults to attach importance to craftsmanship seemed to make him very excited. He kept lobbying the villagers to give up the fields and join the craftsmanship industry. Now there is a shortage of woodworking, so he told everyone that they have the talent for carpentry.

"But I left and I couldn't farm alone..." Sigou buckled his head: "There are four people in the family, eighty acres of land, but you can hire people. Those bachelors are worried about the young man. I thought, if I go to work as a carpenter, I will rent forty acres of land and collect 40% of the rent. What do you think?"

"It's up to you..." Liu Yan still drank porridge coldly.

Sigou looked at the other party, gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, I also want to be like Hou Xiaonian and the others, but I don't seem to be that material..." Sigou sat on the ground with some annoyance: "My family is a hunter family. I have learned hunting with my father since I was a child, but now many people in the village use crossbows more than me..."

"The carpenter is pretty good..." Liu Yan finished drinking the porridge in one sip and said in a rare comforting sentence: "Adults attach great importance to craftsmen. If they can learn real skills from Mr. Hong, they will have a future."

"Right?" Sigou looked at the other person in surprise.

"I've finished eating..." Liu Yan handed the food box back: "Don't come to deliver it tomorrow, concentrate on doing your own thing."

"It's okay, it won't take much effort." Sigou waved his hand indifferently, and then helped to clean up the eggshell next to the food box.

Sister Yan's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, her eating looks better and better, but her appetite is getting scary. With just talking, she drank two bowls of porridge, ate five mountain potatoes and five eggs!

Even a man like Zhang Yuanshan who was locked up couldn't eat so much breakfast. It seemed that he had to work hard, otherwise how could he afford to raise this woman in the future?

Seeing that Liu Yan couldn't persuade him, she didn't say much, and got up and walked out. It seemed that her movements were casual, but she walked out of the door almost instantly. Sigou packed up her eggshell and just chased her out, but she could no longer find a figure...

"Oh... it's like this again..." Sigou sighed helplessly, then carefully closed the door of Liu Yan's house, and then walked down the mountain, muttering: "You have to earn more houses in the future. Such a rashness will easily scare your mother. By the way...what will the child be called in the future?"

------------------------------

The direction Liu Yan was actually walking the same as the way Sigou returned home. She walked down the mountain. After the mountain was recovered, brave people moved down one after another. After all, the fields were all below. If you had to climb the mountain and go home after planting the fields, you would have to climb the mountain. It would be too tired.

Now that life is killed without a trace, and Hou Xiaonian and others are patrolling every day on the periphery, it is basically not very dangerous. Those who are brave try to go down the mountain to occupy a good location...

During the time when the adults were away, Liu Yan had the responsibility to manage the village and had to go down the mountain to inspect every day.

After leaving the entrance of the village, Liu Yan's speed accelerated again, turning into a green phantom. He jumped a few times and reached the mountainside, which made the guardian of the village stunned.

"Sister Yan is becoming more and more like a fairy..." A big man from Yamaguchi said silly.

"What are you talking about?" The person next to him patted his head: "I want to die, right? He learned immortal arts from adults, so don't talk nonsense!"

"Hehe, yes yes..." The big man smiled silly with his head, and then said a little enviously: "You said she won't really fly one day, right?"

"Who is sure of this?" The person next to him curled his lips with a sourness, but lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the adults will expand their teams when they come back. As long as they are selected, they can practice immortal techniques like Sister Yan and the others. Will you register at that time?"

"Hey...I want to try..." The big guy smiled and said, "I'm afraid that the adults don't want me..."

"You are so stupid and silly..." The man shook his head, and in his heart he was fantasizing about the scene after he was selected...

Nowadays, many young men in the mountains are enthusiastic about joining the army. Adults give them very high treatment. Those who are willing to join the army are not only divided into land but also tax-free. They eat the best every day and are the most powerful. After learning the magic of immortals from adults, killing savages is like killing chickens and slaughtering dogs. They can bring back the heads of several savages every day. Those who once terrible savages see them are like rabbits and wolves, not to mention how fast they run...

Who doesn't respect such a brave man? Many women in the village want to marry the heroes in the team, but they don't envy them...

Liu Yan jumped in the steep cliff like an elves in the mountain. It had just rained yesterday and the road was slippery, but she was still so bold that she seemed to care about her safety at all.

In less than forty breaths, Liu Yan came to the foot of the mountain. This speed was more than twice that of Hou Xiaonian, but she was still not satisfied with her progress. She was much lighter here than in the water. She was more willing to stay in the East China Sea, where she grew up significantly faster.

It was very lively at this time at the foot of the mountain. On the fields, the young and strong men were sweating profusely in the fields. It had just rained yesterday, and it was extremely laborious to turn the soil into pieces.

Mr. Huang has a lot of seeds in his supplies. He can't grow grain this season, but he can grow some fast-ripening vegetables. He can pickle some dried vegetables in winter and eat more. Many people have not eaten vegetables for many days and are very enthusiastic about growing vegetables.

Liu Yan counted and said that the old fields that are mainly cultivated are more than 2,700 acres. Except for a few allocated fields that have not been negotiated due to the rental conditions, they are basically used now.

There are more than 500 acres of newly opened fields, and the people who open fields have an additional two acres of land, so the newly opened fields can be selected, which makes the young and strong people in the village very enthusiastic about opening fields. Within two days of the adults leaving, hundreds of people have responded.

After counting the fields, Liu Yan came to the newly built woodworking workshop. The woodworking workshop was located on a flat land not far from the mountain pass, which was convenient for accepting the wood transported from the mountain.

The woodworking workshop was built very large, almost over a thousand square meters. Nowadays, most of the space is vacant, and only a few places at the door are working. This is related to the number of carpenters and there are fewer craftsmen. At that time, Hu Sanming mainly recruited blacksmiths who could finance silver, resulting in even fewer carpenters. Now, there are only eight people in charge of workmanship, and three of them are apprentices...

"Have you not recruited anyone yet?" Liu Yan asked with a frown.

The adults attach great importance to craftsmen, and she also knows that the adults need to train troops on the island. The island has rich resources and naturally the military equipment will be produced by itself. In the future, a large number of ships and arrows will be needed, so the number of carpenters must keep up.

"It's hard!" Mr. Hong sighed and shook his head: "Those children are from farm families, and they don't want to learn craftsmanship if they have land. Children from blacksmiths are unwilling to change careers. It's hard..."

Liu Yan frowned, but she also knew that the other party was saying the truth. Her husband was a farmer before. He knew that such farmers who could cultivate carefully rarely gave up on the fields. It was their life skills passed down from generation to generation.

Although the treatment offered by the adults to craftsmen is good, many people still believe in the fields more...

Ambitionful young people all hope to join the army like Hou Xiaonian and others and become heroes who can fight against savages. Who would like to be a carpenter?

As for the blacksmiths, it is better to understand. They are good at craftsmanship, and the treatment of carpenters and blacksmiths is the same. Why do they want to go far?

I'm afraid this problem will only be solved by the adults...

Liu Yan sighed and was about to say something when she heard a lively sound outside. Liu Yan now merged with the Green Snake Marquis not only with agile body skills, but also with a lot of sensitivity in facial features, especially her hearing. If she concentrates her energy now, she can even hear footsteps a hundred steps away.

At this time, she heard it very clearly, and it seemed that she was shouting outside that the lord was coming back.

"I'll go out and take a look..." Liu Yan greeted and walked outside.

She was very excited about Jiang Sheng's return, because only when Jiang Sheng returns can she continue to go to that magical place and improve herself faster!

But when she got outside, she was stunned. She saw Jiang Sheng returning, but she also saw the few faces behind Jiang Sheng...

Who are these...?

A sense of vigilance rose in Liu Yan's heart...
