Chapter 230 The Reborn Girl 160
"It doesn't matter." Mother Tian is diligent and conscientious in helping people diagnose diseases, for the sake of the reputation of the county lord; she also wants to find something to do for herself.

Nanny Chen understood what she was thinking and let her go; when she was free, she came to help and could share a little for her.

Waiting is a master, and the goal is to provide for the elderly; they understand better than anyone else that they can only be good when the master is good.Naturally, there will be no talk of infighting, and helping each other when there is something to do, is more comfortable and dignified than in the palace.

After half a month, the convoy escorting the cement arrived late.

After getting the news, Xiao Maidong immediately went to the gate of the city to meet him, and the convoy of more than 20 carriages was particularly spectacular.

They followed the people into the city, and Xiao Maidong waited in the city; while the leader of the escorting cement convoy walked up to the guards and took out the signboard of Ji's family.

"I'm coming from the capital, please let me go."

"What are you escorting?" The city guard didn't let it go immediately, but raised his head to look behind the passers-by, "So many convoys."

The leader said: "The guards of our Ji's family are escorting the cement ordered by Zhaoyang County Lord to be sent to Xianyun County; you can check it, but you can't destroy the bag, otherwise, our cement will spill."

"Master Zhaoyang County?!"

"Yes, Lord Zhaoyang County."

The city guard was shocked, and asked again, "What is cement?"

The leader was silent, and the city guards felt that this look was expressing a meaning to them. A bunch of bumpkins, even the cement didn't know what it was.

Guard officers and soldiers: Their fists are hardened, but they dare not make a move.

"Brother guard, look, we have never been to the capital; it is reasonable to not know what cement is, right? Is there any use for you to bring so many things here?" The chief of Zhaoyang County, will not It's useless stuff.

The leader nodded, "Cement is used to build roads."

"Building roads?" Full of doubts, the guards and soldiers let them pass, but all kinds of doubts arose in their minds. They transported cement all the way from the capital just to build roads?In other words, he still didn't understand what cement was, and he didn't even take a look at it, regretting it!

When Xiao Maidong saw the leader, he rushed up to greet him, "This brother guard, I am the son of the steward of Zhaoyang County's main mansion, named Maidong."

"Brother Maidong, we have delivered the main cement in Zhaoyang County; I don't know where to send it? After confirming the location, we have to rush back to the capital to do business."

"I have to trouble you to help send it to the county lord's family."

"Sure, let's go now."

Xiao Maidong led the leader and escorted more than 20 horse-drawn carriages into the city behind him; the team of more than 20 horse-drawn carriages was so spectacular that the common people stopped to look at it one after another, and even those who were at home would stick their heads out to have a look.

The people even discussed it.

"Where do these people come from? With so many carriages."

"I don't know, it looks like they are not from our Xianyun County; they should be from outside."

"From outside, could it be that there are big merchants from our Xianyun County?" Otherwise, there will be so many carriages?
"What are you thinking? Our Xianyun County is not a fortress, and we don't have special products to sell. It is impossible for big merchants to come to our county. I think there may be new officials arriving."

There are different opinions, you have a guess, I have a guess, in short, none of them have been implemented.

The long procession passed through Xianyun County and left the city gate; the carriage walked on the bumpy road, and the leader suddenly understood the purpose of so much cement in Zhaoyang County, and turned to look at Xiao Maidong beside him. The people around the county lord should know some of the county lord's plans, right?
"Brother Mai Dong, is your county master going to use cement to repair the roads in your hometown?"

Xiao Maidong was stunned for a moment, and felt that this was something that could not be said, so he nodded, "I heard from my father that the county lord has this plan; as you can see, the road to the county lord's hometown is really difficult."

"Indeed." The leader nodded, and asked some more about Zhaoyang county magistrate, Xiao Maidong said what he could say, and resolutely refused to speak what he couldn't.

The leader didn't force it when he saw this, he shouldn't have inquired about the county head like this.

However, the Zhaoyang county lord is in the capital, so he is also a legendary figure; he just came to the capital to study as the chief assistant, but he is not well-known, and he doesn't want to become a knight when he becomes famous.It is said that he was only eight or nine years old about this ability, so he became curious about it.

The carriage drove into Xiaojia Village, and Xiao Maidong led the way: "Brother Guard, please wait later, I'll ask the county magistrate where to put these things."

As for the small courtyard where the county lord lives, there is really no way to let it go.

"Okay, you go and come back quickly." The leader said.

Xiao Maidong bowed and hurried to Xiao Minghua's house, and when he entered the door, he bumped into Xiao Pingfu; Xiao Pingfu hurriedly pushed him away, "What are you doing? Let's see what you do."

"Father, am I in a hurry!"

"When you come back now, is it the cement?" Xiao Pingfu asked.

Xiao Maidong nodded, "Yes! We've reached the outskirts of Xiao's Village. Let's ask the county lord where the cement is suitable. The guards have to rush back to the capital to report after the cement has been delivered."

"Okay, you wait here, and report to the county lord for your father; next time, be careful, and don't offend the county lord even if it's a big deal, you know?"

"Understood, Dad, please ask quickly."

Xiao Pingfu nodded, turned around and went outside Minghua's room, lowered his head slightly and asked, "County Master, the cement you asked for has been delivered, where do you think it is suitable to put it, there is a lot of cement, and there must be no place to pile it in the yard .”

"arrive?"

Minghua walked over quickly.

Xiao Pingfu nodded again, "Yes, we have already reached the outskirts of Xiaojia Village, and Mai Dong personally took care of it."

"Mother Luo, take some money out of the box and bring it to the butler."

"Okay, magistrate."

Nanny Luo brought a big purse, which was full of broken silver; after walking to Minghua, she was instructed by Minghua to hand over a bag of silver to Xiao Pingfu.

Minghua said: "Take the money and go to the patriarch, and ask the patriarch to arrange the parking place for the cement; tell the patriarch directly that the cement is intended to be used for road repairs and road paving in the clan, and he knows how to do it. In addition, cement It should be stored in a dry place as much as possible, and in a humid place, the cement is easy to condense into lumps, and then it will not be easy to use.”

"Yes." Xiao Pingfu took the big purse with both hands, turned and walked away quickly; when passing by his son, he called out to the yard together.

Nanny Luo lowered her head and asked, "Master, don't you want to go out and have a look?"

"I won't go." There is nothing to see when the cement is delivered. If you have that time, why not read a book in the room; the study room is occupied by her father and elder brother and second brother, but the place is a bit small, and she feels that it is a bit crowded in it Son, read a book in the room when you have nothing to do.
