Chapter 194

Li Yu sent the two of them away and started working again. After training in the afternoon, he took the men to work together.

Pack the dried vegetables into bags, take them out in winter and soak them in advance, and stir-fry the meat is also a dish, which is better than eating radish and tofu.

The aunts also dried the radishes and made them into pickles of various flavors, which are durable and delicious.

There are also other pickles that have been picked up and marinated, plus a variety of sauces.

"Yu'er, it's going to be winter soon, and those few plots of land will be cultivated to fertilize, and it's okay to plant vegetables next spring."

"I'll arrange it later."

"Are you going to load the water truck?"

Aunt Seven thought of this and asked.

"Yes, it's all arranged for the day after tomorrow."

"Is food ready?"

"Liu Guanshi said that he would find someone to do it and give him some money."

"Then our family will also contribute. Today, I will order miscellaneous grain noodles and steamed steamed buns. I am afraid that there will be too many people to eat, so I will do it thoughtfully. If nothing else, our men have to eat when they go to work."

"Sure, do you want me to help?"

"You can't do it, you go and ask them to cut some pork, and then smoke some bacon for storage."

"okay."

Li Yu took everyone to work, and there was still a lot of work in Zhuangzi, which could not be done by only one or two people.

After lunch, Li Yu took his younger brothers and sisters back home at dawn.

The next morning, I set off with my younger brothers and sisters, my brother and all the servants.

Meet up with the people in charge of Liu and go to dig the river.

His family still has Zhuangzi downstream, but the river is too narrow and there is almost no water, which is inconvenient. Li Yu said that he would dig the river for the villagers, and he also took care of his own family affairs to solve some practical difficulties for the villagers.

Then press the water truck on the node, and there will be water in the dry season.

"You must follow the instructions when you go out, and you are not allowed to run around. If you lose it, you can't get it back. Follow the master to learn farming. After the master's exam, I will take the exam."

"Yes."

Today, I took my younger siblings to see the sufferings of the world, learn about farming, and see what real refugees are like.

Li Yu scanned around and saw a younger brother wearing satin clothes, and couldn't help frowning, "Xiao Jiu, didn't I tell you to change into coarse cloth clothes, why are you still wearing this?"

"I got up late, I didn't have time..."

The boys from the Li family went to the outer courtyard when they were six years old, and the mothers didn't take care of them, and the men didn't let them ask everything. It was the children who learned how to make arrangements and exercised their independence.

"Then you stay."

"Come on, sister, I'll change it now."

"Hurry up, I won't wait for you after the hour."

When Xiao Jiu heard this, Ma Liu ran to look for clothes.

They all changed into the ordinary plain cloth clothes of the peasant family, which were rough and meant not to show off their wealth.

In order not to arouse the resentment of the refugees, I don't want to see them, and I will go to work again. Wearing silk and satin is easy to rot, not as strong as this kind of plain cloth.

"I am back."

Xiao Jiu borrowed a suit of clothes, shoes and socks from the servant, and was panting from the run.

"Okay, let's go."

Today, there are many children, and there are more people to take care of. The main reason is that they are afraid that the children will get lost.

The elder brothers carried sticks to protect them, and they worked to protect their younger siblings.

The children were very happy and chattered non-stop.

Li Yu rode on the horse and walked with everyone.

"Sister, I want to ride a horse too."

A sweet-looking girl was sitting in a carriage and beckoning to her sister.

"Aren't you afraid of falling?"

Li Yu smiled at his sister.

"Don't be afraid, my sister will teach me."

Xiao Shiliu stretched out her arms towards her sister, acting like a spoiled child.

"bring it on."

Li Yu hugged his younger sister and sat on his horse, and taught her to hold the rein tightly, to relax her legs, and not to be too tense, as it would make the horse uncomfortable and tense.

Little Sixteen giggled happily, kicked his calves, and shouted "fight, fight."

"Sister, I want to learn how to ride a horse, can you teach me?"

"I really want to learn, okay, I will teach you if you are not afraid of falling."

Li Yu loves his younger brothers and sisters very much, and will do everything possible to meet the requirements.

"Eldest sister is the best."

Little Sixteen giggled happily.

They came to the downstream river channel, where many refugees had already dug, and there were still people directing.

Li Yu got off the horse and carried his younger sister down too.

"Everyone is ready to start working. The little ones bring water and food, and they are not allowed to run around. The older ones look at the younger ones, and they are not allowed to leave my sight."

"Yes."

The children happily started having fun.

Li Yu led his brothers to work together, and she was in charge of Zhang Luo's command.

The cook also came over to boil water for cooking, and he was going to eat in a while, so he brought some ready-made food, steamed buns made of miscellaneous grains, and millet porridge.

Little Sixteen tugged at the corner of Li Yu's clothes in fear.

"What's the matter, aren't you here to play?"

"Sister, they are so thin, I... a little scared."

"That's so hungry, you are poor people, you are the kindest child, don't be afraid, fetch water with your brother, if you are afraid, just look at it from a distance, don't get too close."

"Ah."

"If you don't want to go, follow your sister, don't run around."

"it is good."

Little Sixteen is only seven years old, so young and timid.

Li Yu didn't force her younger sister to contact refugees. In fact, she didn't want her younger siblings to be too kind. Refugees also have bad people, so they have to keep a certain distance when they do good.

I have explained in advance at home that Mr. Xie taught very well. The children fetched water and asked the servants to deliver water to the refugees. He would not rush to join the refugees.

Li Yu asked people to raise the flag of the Li family army, so that people would know who was helping them.

He took his brothers to fix the water tanker, and the village chief and manager Liu came to help.

"Village Chief, how long will it take for the downstream river to be dug?"

"At least it will take a month."

"It's almost freezing, can you do it?"

"It's really too late to dig this year. There is no way. I was in a hurry to build a house before, otherwise people would have no place to live. It's cold and they can't sleep in the wild. Even if it takes a little effort, I'm not afraid of hard work."

The village chief explained.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. Many villagers have no money. They have to build a house first, and then open up wasteland and land. There are too many things to do.

"Okay, work harder, let's work together, who else has no house to live in, how much is the difference?"

"It's a little bit worse."

"We chopped some wood, and we all worked together to get everyone to live in a warm house before the weather got cold."

"You are very kind."

There was lunch at noon, one by one lined up to get the meal, Manager Liu sent someone to deliver the meal, and the Li family made an extra portion to make sure they were full.

There is a dish with meat, as well as steamed buns, millet porridge and pickles, and hot water is always available.

Li Yu looked around and ordered his housekeeper, "Tomorrow, I will start to boil bone soup, add medicinal materials to prevent wind and cold, and find another doctor. I am afraid that these people will get sick after a long time."

"Sure, I'll arrange it now."

Refugees have survived hunger, and their bodies are already weak. They look strong, but they are actually weak. If they do physical work, they will easily get sick. Preventive measures must be taken.
