Chapter 86 Reward, Explosion

Xu Xiang sighed and told his coachman to go back and tell his family that the Third Division had something to do today and he wanted to stay and discuss matters.

The specific disaster relief needs to be discussed, and the related money and manpower needed to promote the pumping trucks must be learned by local craftsmen before they can be implemented as soon as possible.

The craftsmen at the Ministry of Industry have to continue to study, after all, the situation is different in different places, and this thing may not be suitable for every place.

Jiang Zhi sat on the edge of the field and smelled the aroma of the rice, which would be harvested in two days.

Wait, don't you want to thresh with a flail like last time?There is also rice, which she always buys to eat.I remember correctly, people in ancient times pounded rice, and it took a lot of effort to "separate the walls" of millet.

Jiang Zhi: "..."

The harvest is almost over, and it is completely unrealistic to make a threshing machine now.

There is no way, it's terrible~ I can only use the most primitive method.

The principle of stepping on a threshing machine is simple, and the method is not difficult, but where can I get iron?In the official world of salt and iron, such a large amount of iron is used, and blacksmith shops dare not take advantage of it.

Jiang Zhi scolded this damned backward world in her heart again.

She originally studied biochemistry, but now she is forced to engage in agriculture in this poor and backward place. Who made her a peasant woman in Xinshou Village?

Forget it, let's do it manually, it's just a little harder.

Jiang Zhi looked at the thin calluses on her hands in a daze.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law told me to find it easy, come back with me, someone is here." Ye Xiaomei panted heavily, and supported Jiang Zhi's arm.

"Don't worry, calm down first." Jiang Zhi gently stroked Ye Xiaomei's back.

"A few servants came to the house, as well as the county magistrate Li Guanren and the chief bookkeeper Ouyang Guanren."

The two walked home quickly, and a group of villagers were already watching at the door.As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Zhi noticed several boxes left in the yard, four or five government servants were standing under the eaves, and Li Jintian and Ouyang were teaching Ye Heng how to write.

"Ms. Jiang." Zhu Hongfan blinked at Jiang Zhi, who nodded with a smile.

"It turns out that Lady Jiang is back. Lady Jiang is a gift from the government to you, ten taels of gold, five bolts of silk, and ten bolts of silk." Li Jintian asked someone to open the box, and there were cloth and a small tray inside. There are golden gold ingots of uniform size.

Jiang Zhi was a little surprised.

Li Jintian said again: "What are you doing still in a daze, why don't you thank the officials quickly."

thank you
Jiang Zhi never learned the rules of treating the emperor.

She, Ye Xiaomei and Ye Heng could only kneel down and bow three times in the direction of the Northern Emperor, and said thank you to the official family, and blessings to the official family.

"How can you be rewarded so generously?" Jiang Zhi said.

When Jiang Zhi got up, Li Jintian said: "Thanks to Mrs. Jiang and your younger brother, this year's drought is not only in our Chuzhou, but also in Xuanzhou next door. I heard that the water pump has greatly alleviated the drought in Xuanzhou. It is true." God bless you, this is the reward Miss Jiang deserves."

"That's also the wisdom of the two high officials." Jiang Zhi said politely.

Today is not Xiu Mu, Li Jintian and Ouyang sent things, and then went back.

Besides, Jiang Zhi didn't want to keep them for dinner.

There were already rumors in the village that she was having an affair with Ouyang Daguan.

She was shot innocently, and the two of them were innocent, not to mention physical contact, but every time they spoke, they were separated by the width of the table.

Besides, even if she wanted to find a husband, she wouldn't fall in love with an old man 14 years older than her, would she?

I thought that the county magistrate would come to support them, and these people would change. It seems that their natures are hard to change.

"Ms. Jiang, your family is doing well. This is a reward from the government!"

"God, I can still see official rewards in my life, even if my eyes are blind, it's worth it."

"Our Ye family village is incredible."

"Ms. Jiang, this is a reward from the official family. As a member of the Ye clan, you have to send these to the clan ancestral hall." The implication is that no matter how much you rush, you must not forget the Ye clan.

The person who said this was not a member of the Ye clan, but a person with a foreign surname.

"Hey~ You are quite reasonable." The other person looked at Jiang Zhi: "Ms. Jiang, do you want to remarry? But you still have children here. If you remarry, Brother Heng will stay in the clan." In the village, should I go with you? And today’s reward, you can’t take it all by yourself and ignore the village.”

"That's right, Mrs. Jiang is well-off now, she will definitely not forget Yejiacun, if it wasn't for the Yejia who got her!"

The more these people talked, the more they went too far. Ye Xiaomei, who has always been gentle and silent, clenched her fists and cursed: "Shut up the fuck!"

After Ye Xiaomei finished yelling, the scene immediately quieted down.

Even Jiang Zhi was shocked, feeling that the little girl was very angry today.

"The pumping truck is due to my sister-in-law and my second elder brother. Why? You guys are jealous and want a share of the soup? What about your face? We Ye family members haven't spoken yet, and it's your turn for someone with a foreign surname to be weird here? Who are you, are you?" Ye Xiaomei went all out.

"You girl, you are usually gentle and gentle, but now your nature is exposed. A girl is going to marry after all, don't be too noisy, and be careful that you won't get married in the future." An old woman with buck teeth pointed at Ye Xiaomei, He crackled and said.

Jiang Zhi was angry, it's okay to scold her, but to scold Ye Xiaomei who is still a child, that would be stepping on her bottom line.

"Our family provoked you, and you ran to our door to scold? Are you short of food, or have you gone out to eat dog shit, and your mouth is so stinky?"

"And those who asked me to send things to the ancestral hall just now, and those who said that I want to remarry, you are all so arrogant! The magistrate has not gone far, do you want me to chase someone back and talk to you?"

Jiang Zhi's tone was quite calm, not as tense as when he quarreled with Wu Dajiao and Liang Shi before, but everyone clearly felt a sense of oppression.

These people's minds are very complicated. One second they can boast people, and the next second they can trample them into the dirt.

"Sister, don't listen to these old and shameless nonsense. Our Ye family is very fond of seniors and inferiors. Your branch is passed down from the eldest family of the great ancestor. We are the second wife. When it comes to the ranking of the ancestral hall, it must be There is no doubt that Gao Zu Dafang ranks ahead of Erfang and other branches." Qiu came late with a basket.

This group of people is so unscrupulous because they see that the grown-up man in the big house is gone.

Be kind and respectful when someone backs you up.When no one is in charge, they can bully orphans and widows at will.

If it weren't for the fact that the men in my family took the money to build houses for the next village, it wouldn't be the turn of these people to make irresponsible remarks.

"That's not it, Aunt Qiu, let me just say, I thought that outsiders were buried in our Ye family's ancestral grave." Ye Xiaomei also imitated those envious villagers, with a strange look.

"It's all gone, and these things don't belong to you, and it's absolutely impossible to put them in the ancestral hall, and it's not an imperial decree." Qiu's exit drove them away, and these talents gradually retreated.
