Chapter 60 Yuniang wants to give Li Yuanjing a concubine?
The more the merrier.
Especially on the basis of Li Yuanjing's careful planning, tight organization and thorough mobilization.
Within two days, the earth wall project in Quanzi Village had taken shape.
Although it will take a lot of time to actually build the earthen wall, and the trench and foundation will probably take more than half a month, the trench planning project outside Quanzi Village has been dug by the excited people.
This time.
Even if the earthen wall has not actually been erected, the people's sense of security, including their level of excitement, has been greatly improved.
"Brother Yuan Jing, I see you're hot, come on, drink some water and take a rest..."
The construction site at the north gate of Quanzi Village.
Seeing that Li Yuanjing went straight into the ditch to dig a trench regardless of the mud all over him, Lianhua's pretty face turned red, but after hesitating for a moment, she mustered up her courage, poured a bowl of hot water, and came to Li Yuanjing's side.
"Forehead?"
"Sister Lotus, thank you."
Li Yuanjing himself was born in a poor rural area. He has no objection to doing this kind of physical work and is happy to exercise in this way.
At this time, Li Yuanjing didn't think much about the hot water handed over by Lianhua. He took it and drank a big drink. It was indeed a lot of relief.
But when she saw Li Yuanjing just said thank you and went back to work, Lianhua was stunned.
A while.
Seeing that no one was around to see her, she couldn't help but stamp her feet angrily, her silver teeth almost biting her delicate red lips.
Thoughts:
'Brother Yuan Jing is such a smart person, how can he act like a fool now?'
Li Yuanjing in the ditch actually caught Lotus's reaction from the corner of his eye, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
How could he not understand Lotus's thoughts?
No way.
He already has Yu Niang, how can he make any promises to Lian Hua?
It would be more reliable to nip this girl's thoughts in the cradle as soon as possible.
"Brother, brother..."
While Li Yuanjing was working hard in the trench, sweating profusely, Yu Niang, with her big ya and a small basket on her back, called Li Yuanjing from the side.
"What's wrong, Yu Niang?"
Li Yuanjing didn't need to cover up anything for his little girl, and he didn't care about the mud all over his body, so he wiped his sweat, climbed up and looked at Yu Niang with a smile and asked.
Yuniang's little face suddenly turned a little red.
moment.
She took out her handkerchief, wiped the mud on Li Yuanjing's face, and then said in a low voice like a mosquito:
"Brother, let's go over there and talk..."
Li Yuanjing couldn't keep up with Yu Niang's rhythm for a while, but he nodded and looked at Da Ya at the same time.
Who knows...
Da Ya, this girl, just smiled with a red face, but obviously didn't want to reveal anything to Li Yuanjing...
Li Yuanjing was helpless and thought to himself, 'Sooner or later, we have to educate this girl...'
But he could only follow Yu Niang to this deserted place to take shelter from the wind.
"Yu Niang, what's wrong? Are you acting so mysteriously?"
"elder brother……"
Yuniang's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head in a hurry, but she quickly plucked up the courage, raised her head, looked into Li Yuanjing's eyes solemnly and said:
"Brother, slave, slave, I thought about it for a long time and decided to give my brother a room as a concubine..."
"What?"
"Na, a room for a concubine?"
"Yu Niang, you don't have a fever, do you?"
Li Yuanjing quickly stretched out his hand to test the temperature of Yu Niang's forehead.
"Brother~~~~"
Seeing such a serious matter, and her brother actually treating her as a child, Yu Niang became a little angry, and she puffed up her little mouth angrily and said:
"Brother, I am very serious about telling you something. Can you listen carefully?"
Seeing that Yu Niang had a straight face, Li Yuanjing had no choice but to listen patiently to what Yu Niang had to say.
Seeing that Li Yuanjing was honest, Yu Niang breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Brother, I know that my brother cherishes me and loves me, but I can't be ignorant. Now, my brother has made such a big fortune and is going to take the provincial examination next year. How can I not give him a wife?"
"I have asked Wang Cuihua to make an agreement with the Zhao family in Pijiazhuang. Their youngest daughter Yin Ling is sixteen years old, fair and lovely, and has a good temper. After only three days, I will go over and give the betrothal gift to
If they deliver it to the door, she can pass through and enter my Li family's door!"
"What?"
"Three days later?"
Li Yuanjing almost vomited blood after hearing this. He really wished he could teach Yu Niang's little cock a lesson right now.
However, Yu Niang ignored Li Yuanjing and said directly:
"Brother, let's just say that, I'll go back and prepare lunch first."
Finished.
Not giving Li Yuanjing a chance to speak, he turned around and left with Daya.
"I……"
Li Yuanjing felt like he was punched in the air so hard that he couldn't even use any strength...
but.
Li Yuanjing reacted quickly and said fiercely through gritted teeth:
"Wang Cuihua, you slutty bitch, it seems you really need to be dealt with!!!"
He only has a small foundation now, where is he now?
In particular, Li Yuanjing was satisfied with how Yu Niang looked at her. He just wanted to focus on his career and would only flirt with the female workers if he had nothing else to do.
How can you think of taking a concubine?
He immediately went to the work shed not far away and greeted the old village chief and asked him to keep an eye on the construction site. Then he went straight home and asked someone to call Wang Cuihua over.
…
"I have seen the master..."
Not long after.
Wang Cuihua rushed over.
At this time, she was obviously much moisturized than the previous few days, and her complexion was much better. When she saw Li Yuanjing, she quickly asked for help and knelt on the ground.
"Bang!"
Li Yuanjing directly closed the door of the warehouse-turned-reception room, gritted his teeth and roared:
"Wang Cuihua!"
"Come and tell me what's going on when Yu Niang wants to take a concubine for me?!"
Seeing Li Yuanjing's obviously unkind expression, Wang Cuihua was dumbfounded and said cutely:
"Master, don't you like that girl from the Zhao family? She is the best girl to be married in our country..."
"Whether she is okay or not is none of my business?"
"I want to ask you, why did Yu Niang have the desire to take a concubine for me?"
Li Yuanjing stared into Wang Cuihua's eyes coldly and shouted.
Wang Cuihua suddenly became smart.
She had already understood at this time that Li Yuanjing valued Yu Niang very much.
Being so furious at this time is most likely because he suspected that Yu Niang was instigated by him to think of taking a concubine...
He hurriedly explained to Li Yuanjing.
When Wang Cuihua explained the matter clearly with runny noses and tears, Li Yuanjing was suddenly dumbfounded...
This matter really has nothing to do with Wang Cuihua...
The reason why Yu Niang wanted to take a concubine for Li Yuanjing was really her own business.
The main reason is that Li Yuanjing's current industry puts a lot of pressure on Yu Niang.
She didn't want to be called a 'jealous woman' by the women in the village, so she naturally had to make some changes.
Notice.
At this time, this era was far less developed than later generations, and the reading rate was extremely low. Logic and system were even more unimaginable to these mountain villagers.
If a cute girl like Yu Niang indulges herself in such rumors, something will really happen.
Don't you see me.
How many women in future generations will commit suicide because of "depression"?
Li Yuanjing didn't want anything to happen to his little mother.
But Li Yuanjing just wanted to go over and comfort Yu Niang. Even if he didn't do anything today, he still had to take care of Yu Niang first.
This way.
But Chen Chunyan came over quickly and whispered in Li Yuanjing's ear:
"Master, this slave is useless. I just found out today... Yesterday, Mrs. Wang Liu asked us to go to a young man in the town and use all the money she earned in the past few days to buy a handful of incense..."
"Buying incense?"
Li Yuanjing's brows suddenly furrowed tightly.
Notice.
In this era, incense is somewhat of a luxury product.
Ordinarily, when ordinary people worship their ancestors, they usually burn firewood, add a little bit of food to the firewood, and that's it for a little fire. Few people buy expensive incense.
Those who actually use incense to offer sacrifices are basically in wealthy families, as well as in temples and Taoist temples.
This Wang Liu family didn't make much money in Quanzi Village, but she actually spent all her savings just to buy a handful of incense?
"I know this."
Li Yuanjing breathed a long sigh of relief and told Chen Chunyan to go ahead and then turned to Wang Cuihua and said viciously:
"I don't care what method you use, just go and persuade Yu Niang to give up this idea! If you do well, I will reward you five hundred dollars. If you don't do it, I will sink you into the river to feed the fish. Get out!"
"ah?"
"Yes, yes, sir..."
Wang Cuihua suddenly felt as if her father had died, and could only bow to Li Yuanjing helplessly and leave.
At this time, Li Yuanjing took out the blood-stained handkerchief that Wang Liu had used to wipe his blood from his pocket, and sniffed it gently.
Turn around.
There was a hint of coldness in the corner of Li Yuanjing's mouth. He opened the door and greeted Kui Zi who was on duty in the workshop:
"go!"
"Go to the workshop and call Ms. Wang Liu over and tell her that I have something important to ask her!"
