"Your land is far away from the river outside, and the terrain is higher. It is more difficult to get water from there." Wang Yi said, "If water can really be pumped there, it will be a good thing. Irrigation will be a good thing."
It will be much more convenient.”
Although he still felt that the wasteland was unaffordable, the Lu family had already purchased it, so he could only plan for the better.
It is already barren, and if there is no water source for irrigation, the harvest of that land will be even worse.
"I'll go and ask the two well diggers for you later. If possible, when do you plan to start digging?"
"Tomorrow."
"OK."
"Thank you very much to the village chief." Lu Yan said gratefully, "In addition to this, we also want to ask the village chief to help us find some people to open up wasteland. The men will be paid twenty coppers a day, and the women fifteen, without meals, and the wages will be one day.
End. Anyone from the village can come, but we want those who are hardworking and responsible, and not those who cheat and cheat while working."
When Wang Yi heard this, he was very happy: "How many people do you want?"
Farming has been busy in the village recently, and many people have gone to the city to find work. Sometimes there is no work for a day. Those who can find work can only earn about ten copper coins a day, and fourteen or five copper coins more will be good.
Now I don’t have to go out, and I can still earn more than ten or twenty copper coins a day, which is considered a good thing.
"As long as people are protected, the more the better. The more people there are, the sooner the land will be opened," Lu Yan said.
Wang Yi thought about it in his mind and said, "I will go find someone for you today and start work tomorrow?"
"yes."
"OK."
"Then I'll trouble the village chief." Lu Yan saluted Wang Yi and said, "I'm going to the college after tomorrow. From now on, I'll ask the village chief to take care of me at home."
Wang Yi was surprised: "Are you going to continue studying?"
"Yes. Now that my family's situation has improved, I still plan to continue studying," Lu Yan said.
"Okay, okay!" Wang Yi patted him on the shoulder, "You are the only scholar in our village. We couldn't say anything about your situation before. It's a good thing to be able to study now."
After saying that, he looked at He Yunxi again: "You are also good."
If He Yunxi hadn't taken good care of the Lu family, how could Lu Yan have gone to school?
He Yunxi smiled, making it look like he was shy, and said, "This is what I should do."
After talking about the matter, the two left. After leaving, He Yunxi said: "Aren't you going to the academy tomorrow?"
"We'll go the day after tomorrow. I'll accompany you back to your parents' house in the afternoon and check out the land reclamation situation tomorrow," Lu Yan said.
He Yunxi was stunned for a moment before he realized that the natal family he was talking about was the village chief's family in Lijia Village.
Seeing that she was a little stunned, Lu Yan said, "That He Yunxi has never gone back even once since he got married. When I went to the county town yesterday, I met your father and he smelled of medicine."
Since it smells like medicine, someone must be sick away from home.
He Yunxi nodded: "Since I inherited her body, I naturally have to accept the kindness she received in the past. It's time to go back and take a look."
So, after lunch, the two of them went back to their parents' house with their backpacks on their backs.
"In my past life, I felt a little nervous when I returned to my parents' home for the first time." He Yunxi joked to himself.
Lu Yan's heart moved and he asked, "Have you never been back to your parents' home before?"
"No, I'm not even married, so I don't have any family to go back to. Ah, getting married is what we call getting married here." He Yunxi said.
"You must have been quite young when you died in your previous life, right?"
"Well, I'm almost thirty years old."
"You're not even married at the age of thirty?"
"No." He Yunxi sighed, "I was too busy studying before and had no time to fall in love. After I joined the army, I saw a lot of men. Unfortunately, we all became buddies in the end."
There are obviously many high-quality men in the team, but why couldn't we fall in love in the first place?
The corners of Lu Yan's lips raised, he was in a happy mood and said softly: "It's pretty good."
He Yunxi didn't understand: "What's good?"
Lu Yan closed the smile on his lips and said, "I said your world is pretty good."
"It's quite good." He Yunxi said, "But it's useless to think about it. I can't go back even if I think about it."
Lu Yan's heart suddenly tightened: "Do you want to go back?"
"I think so." He Yunxi shrugged, "I came to this world out of nowhere. I don't know how to go back if I want to."
Lu Yan wanted to say if he could not go back? But thinking about the contrast between their world and this world, he couldn't say this.
"Huh? Those are my mother and eldest aunt, right?" He Yunxi saw a thin figure hoeing in the field, which was his adoptive mother Liu Yan in his memory.
"Yeah." Lu Yan was not familiar with the Li family before, but Liu Yan had been to the house several times and he still recognized her.
It was only shortly after noon, and the sun was still shining on people above their heads, so they felt dizzy, and the Li family had already gone to the ground.
Li Zhigui's family is a little richer than the people in the village. That's because they have more land than others. In addition to their own land, they also have more than ten acres of land. Their life is spent in the land with their hands.
It was dug out bit by bit.
"Mom! Auntie!" He Yunxi shouted to the two of them and ran over with a basket on his back.
Before the original person committed suicide, she always felt that the Li family did not treat her as a member of the family, so they let her marry the poor Lu family, so she felt resentful towards the Li family. However, she could see from the original person's memories that the Li family
It's all very good to her.
It's not an exaggeration to say that the original person's temperament is that of a white-eyed wolf.
He Yunxi still likes the Li family very much, and even has the slightest intimacy with them, so he would run over to them when he saw them.
"Second brother and sister, I seem to hear Yunxi's voice." Wang Chunye, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Li family, said to Liu Yan.
Liu Yan was digging the ground. When she heard Wang Chunye's words, her expression darkened: "Sister-in-law, Yunxi hates us so much now, why did she come back?"
When Wang Chunye heard this, she thought of the last time she and her second brother and sister went to see He Yunxi, and sighed, "Oh, the Lu family is like that. If her father marries her, other people would be resentful. That child Yunxi is
Okay, I just haven’t figured it out yet. It’ll be fine when she figures it out.”
"Yeah." Liu Yan felt uncomfortable and didn't want to talk about He Yunxi. She put down the hoe and went to the street to drink water. She heard He Yunxi's voice: "Mom, auntie!"
This time the sound was much louder. Liu Yan and Wang Chunye turned around in disbelief and saw He Yunxi running towards them.
Unlike before when her face was full of resentment, she had a smile on her face and she felt even happier than before.
"Yunxi?" Liu Yan felt a little unreal.
"Mom." While Liu Yan was stunned, He Yunxi ran to the field.
Lu Yan, who was behind, was not slow at all. When he reached the field, he shouted: "Mom, auntie."
