Chapter 229
Father Lu was extremely enthusiastic about his second son's plan to build a new village.

He dreams of doing something for the border people, but he has no money in his hands, and he has more than enough energy.

Father Lu even felt that his second son did so much just to realize his dream.

He has guarded the northern border for decades, and besides resisting foreign enemies, he only trains soldiers.

The rations of the soldiers all depend on the military salary of the imperial court. Fortunately, the current Emperor Yan is a Mingjun.

No minister dared to blatantly deduct military pay, and at most they would only deduct a little bit secretly.

So the border soldiers will not be hungry, but it is impossible to eat every meal.

Lu's father excitedly said to Lu's mother: "Actually, I have been building a city wall recently. I heard from Qian'er that the city wall can defend against foreign enemies."

Mother Lu knew her sweetheart too well, if it wasn't for the benefit of defending against foreign invasion or the common people, he wouldn't be so excited.

"Old man, is everything Qian'er and his wife are doing now what you have always wanted to do?"

"That's right, the city wall built by our Qian'er and Yue'er is much higher than the city wall of Yanjing City."

Father Lu said proudly.

"Old man, why do you think Qian'er knows so much, and even knows how to build a new village?"

Lu's mother asked Lu's father in confusion.

"Oh, it is said that Yue'er suggested it. This month, Yue'er is amazing."

Lu's father praised: "It is really wonderful to have such a powerful daughter-in-law as our Qian'er's military advisor.

Not only is she smart and capable, but she can also paint. She also named the new village: Lujia Village.

Xi'er, we will settle here from now on, and the children of our Lu family will definitely have a bright future. "

Lu's father said longingly, he gave Lu's mother a hug and left, and he still has to build the city wall.

After listening to her sweetheart's words, Lu's mother was shocked and proud at the same time.

Lujiacun, it means that her son and daughter-in-law are very prestigious here.

She looked at the back of Lu's father leaving, and her heart was so sweet that she didn't want it.

Mother Lu felt that she had been talking to Father Lu for too long, and she was a little embarrassed. When she looked up, she saw that there was no one in the dining room.

When Lu Shaoyi saw his brother and sister-in-law leave, he also pulled Lu Yufan away quietly.

Yi Bai's mother and son left early after dinner, and they each did what they liked.

And Lin Fuyue also sent Fang Yibo and Li Youliang to take the baked biscuits to the villages.

There are also families in the county and town, each household has two catties. Although it is not much, it is a little wish of their husband and wife.

Mainly, the situation this year is special, because the purchase of seeds was restricted before, and the harvest is not good no matter how good it is.

But Lin Fuyue believes that there will be improvement next year, and she will lead the villagers to plant various crops by themselves.

Lin Fuyue also read the story that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

The two catties of biscuits they gave were too extravagant for the people in Shuangjiang County who couldn't get enough to eat.

Therefore, they were very grateful to the head and his wife, and when Fang Yibo and the others left, the women became overwhelmed.

"Did you see? The head and his wife not only exchanged so much meat for our family, but also delicious biscuits."

"Yes, this biscuit smells delicious. The head and his wife are so generous. How much money will it cost?"

"Isn't it? There are also those pork and vegetables, all of which are of the highest quality, even better than those bought in the county."

"."

For a while, everyone talked a lot, and they were full of gratitude to the head couple.

There were even a few women who were so moved that they cried out loud.

All of this was seen by Lu's mother and Menghan's master and servant. Lu's mother heard Lu's father talk about the situation at the foot of the mountain.

She asked Menghan to take her down the mountain to have a look, but she saw this touching scene.

She knew how poor all the villages on the border of Dayan were, but she never thought that Shuangjiang Town was so barren, which made people feel sad.

"Okay, everyone go back, what to do, you have nothing to do here."

Aunt Li comforted everyone, and the women slowly dispersed.

Among the women who got the biscuits, some were sincerely grateful, some were envious, and some were jealous.

There are also surprises, and even more unwillingness. In short, all kinds of emotions are intertwined, but most of them are grateful thoughts.

They all hope to change the status quo and make their family's life better.

Moreover, this opportunity was given by the head and his wife, and they will never forget this kindness.

But Wang Taohua of the Wang family not only didn't have the idea of ​​gratitude, but they hated the head wife to the core.

He hates the power she holds even more, and makes the stupid villagers grateful to her.

"Mother, I must be the head's wife." Wang Taohua said bitterly.

"The head of the sect has a wife." Mrs. Wang was still a bit sensible.

"Hmph, who does Lin Fuyue think she is? Isn't she just a peasant woman! Why does she care about our village's affairs?"

"We were going to starve to death, if the head and his wife hadn't saved us by sending food..."

"But, mother, don't forget, this is the ability of the head of the sect, and that woman has become the head's daughter-in-law.

She is so majestic, if your daughter and I marry the head, then what's the matter with her being a village woman. "

"It is said that feeding the pigs was taught by the head wife."

"Hmph, so what? No matter how capable she is, she's just a country peasant woman. No matter how powerful she is, she can't compare to our Wang family's scholarly family, right?"

"Peach Blossom, our Wang family has been down and out for decades, and we have no family background."

Wang Taohua listened, her face darkened slightly, and she couldn't help but think of what her grandfather said to her.

Peach Blossom, you have to know that people must put themselves in a correct position, and don't think about things that don't belong to you.

And her father, who always doted on her, often persuaded her recently: "Taohua, don't think about being the head of the family, and find someone to marry with peace of mind."

After Wang Taohua listened to her grandfather and father's words, not only did she not remember those words.

She also hated her grandfather and father. She dared not provoke the head of the sect alone, but she could provoke the head's daughter-in-law.

Therefore, she has been secretly fighting against the head wife, and she will never allow anyone to live better than her.

Not even the wife in charge.

Thinking of everyone's gratitude and admiration to Mrs. Sect Leader, Wang Taohua felt a sharp pain in his heart.

She bit her lips tightly, unwilling to say another word, "Taohua, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah, it's nothing, maybe it's cold."

"Then go back to the house to warm up." Wang believed it was true, and urged worriedly.

Wang Taohua went back to the room, closed the door, and leaned against the wall with hatred in her heart.

Her father and three elder brothers doted on her very much, and she only knew how to read and write with her grandfather since she was a child.

But she said that if she wanted to be the head's wife, her father and three older brothers would not agree, let alone help her.
