reborn child bride

Chapter 197 Follow (2) ([-])
Yesterday, I heard from my subordinates that Wei Ying's wife is also a woman who does not give way to men.Lieutenant Lin smiled and said to Wei Ying on the embankment that when he returned from paying the fee, he must come to ask for a bowl of wine and see him.

Wei Ying was not very happy about this, and his wife was not a celebrity in a brothel, she could see it if she wanted to.In the past, those colleagues in the Hanlin Academy were very curious about the private dishes at home, and even more curious about the people who invented these private dishes and updated them at any time. No one asked to meet Shen Ji.This is knowing etiquette.But I also know that these soldiers are not so particular.At that time, it is enough to come to entertain him to eat and drink, there is no reason to invite the female relatives out casually.

At this moment, seeing those folk men who were tired and thirsty but dared not approach the shed, Wei Ying waved and said: "Let all the people on the shift drink a bowl of ginger soup, and those who get wet can also go to the vacant place if they bring a replacement." Changed it in the shed and handed it over to the maid to clean it.”

Guan Meng, Liu Zhun, and a group of county yamen servants immediately passed on the word, and then took the lead to drink ginger soup and change their wet clothes. Gradually, more people followed.Wei Ying asked people to divide these civilian husbands into three shifts, one shift lasted an hour.In this way, people will not be exhausted, and they will not be able to stand in the water when they turn around, and they will be washed away by the rapids.

Folk husbands bring their own dry food to work, so some people eat dry food with this hot ginger soup.The changed wet clothes were floated in clear water, then hung on bamboo poles and roasted over fire.It's still raining, that's the only way to do it.The clothes are written with their respective names on cloth strips, and they can be replaced after the next shift.

Shen Ji didn't have too many people, and he wasn't usually a rough servant girl, so he told those folk husbands that if there was a spare person in the family, they could go back and call them to help with the work.Five copper coins a day for one person.A peasant can get fifteen coppers a day, which is really cheap labor.Therefore, it is not possible to set a high price for helpers.And this money can only be received in the hands of Wei Ying, and it is unknown who pocketed it at other times.

"Is there really five coppers a day?"

"My grandma never coaxes people." Cailan, who was still young and came out to spread the word, said a little unhappy.

"Miss, the wife of the magistrate of Wei County is not a person who talks in empty words, can I go home and call her now?"

"can."

The folk husbands who lived nearby went back to call for help, and the manpower was immediately replenished.A Ling and others retreated to the second line, only responsible for arranging various things, distributing supplies, counting people and supervising work.Shen Ji is equivalent to what Wei Ying did on the ground, the on-site chief dispatcher.

So every group of people took turns to take shelter in the sheds, and quickly found someone to build some sheds, which are equivalent to the simple work sheds of later generations.Shen Ji thought about whether or not to provide food, but after thinking about it because he was too busy, he gave up.

In this way, there are many fewer civilian husbands who fall ill every day.

Wei Ying said to Shen Ji: "It's better for you to be more thoughtful. Have a bowl of hot soup, change into dry clothes, and have a tile to cover you when you rest."

"How can a man think so much, so he said that working with a man and a woman is not tiring."

"Where is the fallacy coming from?"

In short, once here, Shen Ji didn't pay much attention to their small home. At most, they built the same simple shed for the boys and bought some simple beds and bedding.Aunt Wei and Chazi were at home and were in charge of cooking for them. At noon, a servant came home and brought them a bucket.

Aunt Wei knows well that wealth should not be revealed. She is not an aunt with different sophistication in the deep house compound, she is a person who stumbled across the state with the young Wei Ying.Therefore, when Chazi asked in a roundabout way whether the family's money could support such expenses, she became suspicious.Shen Jixin was worthy of her, and handed all the money into her hands.She has to be extra careful.

After listening to her suspicion, Shen Ji smiled and said: "Jiang is still old and hot. If she can steal money from you and run away, I will admire her." Will keep the two of them in the house.Besides, there is still the old Zhao head in the outer court, and Chazi can't help but be jealous.Now that Mrs. Wei has become suspicious, she naturally wants to tell Old Zhao.For Chazi to avoid these two people and steal the silver, the degree of difficulty is not so high.

"Grandma, do you want to..."

Shen Ji thought about it, if he caught Chazi and stole money, he would have to sell her.Then who will be the nominal housekeeper for Wei Ying in the future?Let's use colorful.But it would be nice to have one more handle on her.

"Let's leave the matter to you, Auntie, and I'll pretend I don't know. It's just that Auntie must keep the purple in the future."

Aunt Wei laughed and said, "I don't believe she dared to kill me."

Shen Ji didn't bother with this matter anymore, she was exhausted after a day on the embankment.But Wei Ying can come to the shed from time to time to drink hot soup, eat something to replenish energy, and talk to her a few words.And if what she did was helpful to him, she was very happy.

However, on the second night here, she bought some gifts and went to meet the magistrate's wife.No matter how dissatisfied, these etiquettes cannot be missed.Even Madam Zhixian asked her to touch the Que'er card, and she gladly obeyed.It's just that they still go up to the dike during the day.

Wei Ying also needs to report the progress of the matter to the county magistrate.No matter what Ma Zhixian thinks about his end, he is still very enthusiastic every time.At least with this person, he can sleep peacefully.As for the power struggle in the future, it will be after the flood.Therefore, for the time being, Wei Ying still has his full support in doing things.Anyway, if the matter is done well, it is he, the magistrate, who gets the commendation, and the others are just a little mention.If things go wrong there is a ready scapegoat.

On the eighth day after Shen sent it, Lieutenant Lin came back. He did not return with all his achievements, but the group of rogues were scattered and did not dare to gather again.Hearing that Shen Ji had brought dozens of women to help at a place not far from the embankment, he said in shock: "Brother Wei, my wife is ashamed to say that she was born in the general family, but when she heard that I came here, she insisted on not doing it." You are lucky to come with me."

Wei Ying was bending over to pull up her trouser legs higher, when she heard the words, she straightened up and tightened her coir raincoat, "What's the matter, let her stay in peace, she has to run here. If you don't go to the house for three days, you won't be obedient at all. .”

Lieutenant Lin pointed his whip at Wei Ying and said, "Look at the corners of your mouth, don't grin behind your ears. Just look at me. I'll go and finish the ginger soup." Sometimes it is more effective to practice than a horsewhip.Now those folk husbands are no longer just afraid when they see him.

The maids of the Wei family are quite capable, but unfortunately they are too young.Otherwise, just ask for one to be a concubine.As for Shen Ji, he naturally didn't see him, but just thanked him through the door.

He touched his nose, that's all.But listening to that sound, it is quite small.It turns out that Wei Ying likes this.No wonder when he first arrived, he was recruited by Hongxiu, he did not pretend to be an oiran.I didn't like the kind of mature and charming.
