Chapter 722
After the Ministry of Households recruited the first batch of laborers, the project contracted by Guangsha Construction officially started.Yuan Shang was in charge of the logistics, Zhang Chang and Zhao Qiusheng, the fortification officials of the royal palace, and Lai Changyou and Yang Jin, the newly recruited craftsmen of the construction company, each led [-] civilian workers, starting from the starting point of Jiangbei Prefecture, to sort out the track foundation in sections.

Since it is close to the capital, Ye Xinyan also helps Qi Younian to be busy in it, so that Qi Younian can have a rest time.In addition to checking the progress of the project, he also helped Zhang Chang and Zhao Qiusheng with some technical support.

Ye Xinyan also brought along a young craftsman and his two apprentices who were working on construction documents, and taught him to record the progress of the project at any time, and according to the construction regulations, refer to the track documents sent by the court, and restore a track project construction document and Preliminary drawing.Trying to train him into a jack-of-all-trades character like Wang Qiao.

This young craftsman is called Li Jingnian, he is older than Wang Qiao, at the age of 25, he is experienced and has a solid foundation in the craftsman's trade.It's just that his family background is not bad, his father's generation is good at craftsmanship, and the family's situation is well-off, which can support him to study, so he studied engineering documents from the beginning, which is much worse in practice.

The two apprentices were arranged for him by Ye Xinyan, as a follow-up reserve force for the construction industry.

I have to say that after working with Wang Qiao, the others are a little too pedantic and lacking in spirit in Ye Xinyan's eyes.Don't say anything, even after ten or eight o'clock, you are still confused and can't find the north at all.

Fortunately, Li Jingnian has been in contact with Ye Xinyan for more than two months, he has already admired this noble girl from a wealthy family, and knows Ye Xinyan's expectations of him, so he works extremely hard.

Compared with the previous Steward Wang, Li Jingnian knew that he lacked a lot.Even if Ye Xinyan was demanding, he really couldn't do it, so he didn't dare to complain.

After seeing that Ye Xinyan disliked him for being ignorant and impatient with his detailed guidance, she didn't dare to follow up with him. Besides spending more time on construction, she also invited Zhang Chang and Zhao Qiusheng to drink from time to time. Ask them both for details.

Although Ye Xinyan was helping on the construction site, Qi Younian was still very busy, leading two young men to allocate materials at the construction site and the Guangsha building in the north of the city, arrange the craftsmen's manpower, and try to arrange the craftsmen in hand as soon as possible.

One day in mid-February, when he first arrived in Si, Ye Xinyan was checking the construction documents and drawings made by Li Jingnian and two apprentices in the shed outside Jixian County, Jiangbei Prefecture.Anping's family came in to report, and the eldest wife sent someone to deliver a letter, asking her to explain the matter at hand and go back to live for a few days.

Ji County is not far from the capital, but it takes two hours to go back and forth, so Jiang Yifan rented a yard not far from the Ji County Government Office for Ye Xinyan to live in temporarily.

Under normal circumstances, Ye Xinyan would always go back to Anguo Gongfu in the capital every three to five days.At this time, she had been out for two days. If something happened, she couldn't wait for a day or two, so she sent someone over to tell her to go back now.

Ye Xinyan returned to the Yin family's courtyard in Duke An's mansion, and when she heard Yin's explanation, she couldn't help but feel bitter.What's the situation?She's very busy, okay?Her mother would actually get her back because of such a boring thing.

The wife of General Huwei Shi Zongyi held a Spring Festival banquet for the female relatives of the family of Shihao officials in the capital.An Guogong is Shi Zongyi's old boss, and Shi Zongyi has always respected An Guogong as an elder.Therefore, the Duke's Mansion must join in the show, and the General's Mansion must be given face. The Duke's wife, the Yin family, and Ye Xinyan must also attend the banquet.

Is this considered serious?

Ye Xinyan stared at Yin Shi with wide eyes for a long time, and under Yin Shi's displeased gaze back, she lowered her eyes weakly.

Forget it, this is serious business.

Don't talk about ancient times, even in modern times, there are still necessary entertainment and contacts.It's just that work was the most important thing at that time, and I couldn't leave work. In order to keep my job, I had to push any entertainment, and everyone understood.

However, it is for those who have a job and need to work. For full-time wives and various second-generation officials and rich second-generations, entertainment and communication are the most important parts of life, and nothing can be more serious.

And her current job, in the eyes of the female relatives in the capital... that is really not doing a proper job.

Ye Xinyan only wiped her hands and face, didn't even bother to change her clothes, so she sat on the couch and asked Yin-shi sullenly, "Just go. But, isn't it only a few days away? It's so early What am I doing back here?"

"Oh, my aunt, look at your face, it's exposed to the wind and sun, if you don't come back early and stay at home for a few days, how can you go out to meet people." Yin said with a heartbroken heart.

"Is there?" Ye Xinyan touched her cheek innocently, "I wear a veiled hat whenever I go out, where is the wind and the sun?" What is this talking about?It's still exposed to the wind and the sun, not salted fish.

"Mother doesn't talk about you, you just drag a maid in the courtyard of this house and look in the mirror together to see if your face looks like a noble girl from everyone."

Her daughter is really spoiled by her.When is this? Seeing that the marriage has been settled, she still doesn't know how to restrain her mind and runs outside every day.It's also thanks to Yuan Fan, who doesn't dislike her, if it's someone else, I'm afraid they will be engaged, and they will have to go back on their word.

"Ayan, it's not that mother said you, you should take it easy. You have a husband's family, you have to be considerate and considerate of Yuanfan, you can't always let yourself..."

She's already restrained, okay? Whenever she goes out, she will put on her veil tightly.Isn't it because she took care of Jiang Yifan's face that she didn't bother her so much?Forget it, my mother nagging a few words, just listen.

Ye Xinyan drank two sips of hot tea, picked two candied dates and ate them, feeling that they were not enjoyable enough, picked up two walnuts and handed them to Jiuzhen, motioning her to smash them.Then, while listening to Yin's chanting, he peeled peanuts and ate them.

"...Well, I knew I was talking for nothing." Yin Shi stopped her mouth helplessly, and then added unwillingly, "Ayan, mother has spent so much talking, you can also listen to a half sentence. OK?"

Ye Xinyan peeled half of the walnut that Jiuzhen brought and handed it to Yin Shi, "Mother, eat it, it tastes sweet."

Well, this is really nonsense.

Reluctantly, Yin took it and handed it back, "You can eat this oily thing, mother has such an appetite, it's hard to get rid of it after eating it."

At this time, a child's crisp and tender voice sounded outside the door: "Eldest sister, elder sister."

Cui Zhu looked at Yin Shi.

Yin Shi nodded, but she didn't see Qi Jiaer's joy on her face.

Cuizhu opened the door, and a little girl walked in leading Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan saw Ye Xinyan who was sitting on the couch, and ran over stumblingly, calling, "Big sister."

Ye Xinyan hurriedly stood on the ground with her shoes on, met him, and hugged him up, "You have a pair of downwind ears. The elder sister just entered the door, and you came here."
