Chapter 87

Chen Fan hurried back to the bedroom, rushed onto the bed, pulled up the mosquito net, covered himself with a thin quilt, and felt his heart beating violently.

Why did someone suddenly tell her that he was thinking of her?
Does she miss him?There should be some, right?When she met him again at the grocery store, she was a little happy; when she saw him on the deserted beach, she drove over immediately. Maybe she didn't realize it, but she was a little excited at the time.

Xu Shi fell in love at first sight. At the first sight, he was imprinted in her heart.There were also times when she briefly thought of him.If he didn't say it, maybe it would take a long time for her to understand what she meant.But now that he said it, she should face it.

Marriage?He knew her origin, kept her secret, and was safer than others.With outstanding looks, aloof temperament, profound knowledge, wandering abroad with housekeepers, maids and guards, able to buy houses and fields, is there anyone like him in ordinary people?If he hadn't been forced to leave Beijing, would it have been her turn?cannot.

Just him.

She decided.

After the rooster crowed three times, Chen Fan got up.Zhang Ci and Mo Jian were already practicing in the yard, and Chen Fan was dazzled by it.

"I'll practice with the girl for a while?" Qin Zheng said.

Uh, do you want to agree?She can fly like this and has internal strength, what will happen when she fights later?

"It's just the moves." Qin Zheng said.

All right.After the preparatory activities were done, the two started fighting.Chen Fan obviously felt stage fright.She is competing with an ancient master.

Qin Zheng's movements were nimble and sharp, and his speed was beyond imagination.Chen Fan used modern fighting moves, added all his strength, and went straight to the goal, only to defeat the enemy.

After Qin Zheng said "Shut up", Chen Fan jumped back and stopped.

Mo Jian and Qing Ji clapped their hands together, Chen Fan was a little embarrassed, and saluted the four of them.

"The girl's moves are very suitable for the training of the army." Zhang Ci said.

"My cousin is a soldier, he taught me." Chen Fan said.

"Will you teach us?"

"can."

Breakfast is instant noodles, and Chen Fan took out the noodles, so I feel more at ease after eating it early.She added a few green vegetables and fried an egg for each of them.Mo Jian said her vegetables were delicious, and everyone agreed.

Chen Fan and the others arrived at Lizheng's house, and Lizheng led them to the embankment.There was a heavy rain yesterday, and a long section of the embankment was submerged, and a large pond formed on the barren beach.

"Go and mark the location." Zhang Ci ordered.

The ink note should be down, go to the flooded area to check.

All the villagers came, 200 of them were working, and the others were watching.

Qingji didn't show up and stayed in the village to inspect and take care of him.

The offerings this time are a bit grand, with whole chickens and fish, a big pig's head, and a lot of incense candles.Chen Fan gave Li Zheng two pennies to prepare it yesterday.

The auspicious time is a bit early, and the ceremony will begin at seven o'clock.Chen Fan followed Li Zheng to respect the sky, the land, the river god, the god of wealth, and all the great gods. He kowtowed several times.

She wondered if the river course could not be repaired well before, maybe they didn't pay homage seriously.

Lizheng dug a shovel of soil first, he was regarded as a parent official; Zhang Ci dug the second shovel of soil, Lizheng said that a noble person was needed to break the ground, I don’t know what standards and basis he used to judge, Zhang Ci did not Resigned; Chen Fan dug the third shovel, she was the owner.

Li Zheng said that after such worship, there is no need to worship on the day when the embankment is officially opened.

Everyone started to work.Zhang Ci and Mo Jian are in charge of patrolling, but she is free.

This Qi Lizheng's prestige is still quite high, he can call two hundred laborers from seven to seventy households.There are also 200 people from Wangjiadun, but there are many people in the village who work outside, and it is impossible to give up their jobs to help her dig the soil.

The villagers are also very respectful to Li Zheng, no one is playing tricks and making trouble, and no girls are approaching Zhang Ci.

Those who came to Zhang Ci were from Kaiyun Village on the other side of the river.So far away to watch the excitement, there are old ladies who come to the front and ask Zhang Ci how old he is, where he lives, and whether he has ever been married; those who help others to be matchmakers, those who sell their own girls, those who are willing to be concubines and maidservants, all kinds of performances Both.

Zhang Ci was as cold as ice, keeping a distance of two steps from them, allowing them to chatter two steps away.It was almost the same, when Mo Jian pushed his palms, they trembled and fell limp to the ground one by one.

The villagers of Qijiadu looked at those who were slumped on the ground, exchanged glances with those in the same village, shook their heads, and continued to work, even harder.

Chen Fan stared at the sky speechlessly, what kind of strange village is that?
"If you need to dig ditches and open the gates on the other side, let the people from Qijiadu do it. I have already worshiped it, and you don't need to do it again on your side. You also dug a shovel of soil today. It just so happens that you are also the owner." Lizheng's set of auspicious words should be blessings for the entire river section project, not just someone's project.

"Okay, then thanks to you, I will benefit from your glory. I will pay the wages." Zhang Ci looked at her with a smile.She turned her head away and looked into the distance.

The bridge builders also came. They surveyed, designed and discussed with Zhang Ci the plan to build the bridge.The two bridges cost a total of [-] yuan, including materials and labor.Chen Fan and Zhang Ci each paid fifteen guan.Chen Fan needs to build a bridge on the newly opened river, and Zhang Ci needs to build a bridge on the original river to reach the opposite bank.The two bridges are very close to each other.

This busy, busy until noon.

After lunch, Zhang Ci said to go to Guangyun County to have a look, and Qin Zheng went there with them.

Whose carriage shall I drive?Chen Fan didn't want the carriage to leave her sight, but there were a lot of things on it.Can't three people take two carriages?
"Go in your carriage." Zhang Ci said.

"My car is a bit crowded, don't be disgusted with it."

"It's okay." Zhang Ci said and got into the car, and Chen Fan had no choice but to follow.

The car is not only a bit crowded, there is almost no room to sit.The two wives piled up a lot of things, and Chen Fan took out several baskets.

Zhang Ci smiled and sat down opposite her without saying anything.Chen Fan felt a little uncomfortable, so he closed his eyes and dozed off.

can't sleep.Chen Fan was always thinking about the person sitting across from him, maybe still looking at her.She opened her eyes and met Zhang Ci's gaze.

The little beast came in again, scratching, scratching, scratching in her heart.The compartment seemed to be stuffy and hot, his chest was a little stuffy, and his breathing was not smooth.But why, the corners of the mouth always run up involuntarily?She pulled down several times, but couldn't control it.Does it look like you're having a cramp?

Zhang Ci closed his eyes.Chen Fan looked at him for a while, saw that he hadn't opened his eyes, he was relieved, and continued to doze off.

For an hour's journey, neither of them spoke.Chen Fan also swayed and fell asleep.

Guangyun County has a city wall, and the city is surrounded by farmland and villages.

Not long after entering the city, I saw an inn. Qin Zheng stopped the carriage, and a clerk came out to greet him warmly: "Hi, sir, do you want to stay at the inn?"

"Staying in the hotel, two upper rooms." Qin Zheng said.

This is to stay in Guangyun County?

"I'll take you to explore the county magistrate's residence tonight," Zhang Ci said.
