Traveling through ancient times.

Chapter 54 I finally decided to come in person

Yunxin finally finished registering the list of people who had arrived. When she returned to the Central Courtyard, she found that no one had eaten yet and was still waiting for her.

She felt warm in her heart and her eyes were a little hot.

After Yunxin sat down, everyone ate and reported on their day's work as usual.

Yun Xin introduced first: "...There are already thirty or forty people who signed up tonight. Now everyone's wheat hasn't started to be harvested yet, so basically everyone can spare some labor. I estimate that there will be about thirty more tomorrow. Together with the ten or so people from Taozhuang, there will be about eighty people in total. Miss, do we need all of these people?"

Jiang Yizhou said: "Those who have had bad credit with us before will not be used. Other than that, as long as they can swing a sickle and carry wheat, we will use them."

After that, Jiang Yizhou added: "Especially women, whenever they come, they will be given priority."

Yun Xin nodded heavily and said, "I understand, Miss."

Jiang Yizhou thought of something, "Oh, tell them that if anyone has a sickle at home, bring it with them."

I bought a batch of farm tools from Zhuangzi before, but there were only a dozen sickles, which was not enough for so many people to use at the same time.

Yun Xin said, "Well, I mentioned this to them, and they all said they would bring it."

Jiang Yizhou nodded. Yunxin is getting better and better at doing these things now.

Then there was Yucui. During this period, Jiang Yizhou asked her to rebuild the granary and workshop, as well as do daily maintenance of the ditches.

Spring is the peak season for water use. Fortunately, the pond was full of water before, and with the rainfall, they were located upstream and did not need to build a dam to block the water, so the water was enough.

After Yucui's introduction, Zhang Ni excitedly said that their woodworking workshop had already produced forty threshers.

I could have made one or two more, but I ran out of suitable wood.

Jiang Yizhou made no effort to hide his joy, "When I bought the wood, I thought I could only make 30 at most, but I didn't expect you to make more. Well done!"

Zhang Ni has been praised a lot since coming here, which is completely different from before at home.

No matter how well she does at home, even if her parents think she does a good job, they will always add at the end: It's a pity that she is a girl, it would be better if she was a boy.

Especially since it was clearly something she made, but she could only tell others that it was made by her father or brothers.

Because if you say she made it, no one will buy it.

Or even if they bought it, if there was anything wrong with the item, or even if there was no problem with the item at all, they would take their anger out on her: those people felt that if a woman just touched it, she would be unlucky.

This made her feel extremely depressed and suffocated, but she could do nothing about it.

But it’s different here. Not only does the young lady trust and respect her, but more importantly, because of the young lady, those people’s views on her have also changed.

This makes Zhang Ni radiate confidence.

Jiang Yizhou said that he would reward the three of them when the time comes.

She has already promised several rewards, Yunxin, Yucui, Zhang Ni...all of them are waiting for a good wheat harvest.

Wait until everyone has finished reporting.

Liao Qicai said, "Brother Tao came back from Fusong Town today. I heard from the old house that Master Ning will come to pick you up in two days."

Jiang Yizhou said "oh" calmly. Wei Ke had told her this news an hour ago, so she was already mentally prepared.

Oh, it seems like he finally couldn't bear it anymore and has to come in person.

The others looked at Jiang Yizhou nervously.

Yucui asked Liao Qi, "Did he really tell Uncle Tao that he would come here in person?"

Liao Qi nodded: "Yes, he sent someone to deliver a letter to the pottery shop, saying that it would be in the next few days, and asked the young lady to pack up her things."

The people sent here before didn't get any benefits, especially Jiang Fusheng, who fell ill due to injuries and anger after returning from the farm. In addition, his son became disabled, so the servants of the entire Jiang's house were full of fear of this place.

No one dared to come here, and even if they did, it would be useless. So they just sent the message directly to the pottery shop.

Yun Xin looked at Jiang Yizhou nervously, "Miss, what if he really comes?"

Yucui: "Yeah, you don't really want to go back to the old house with him, do you?"

Yun Xin: "Miss, he is a selfish person. As soon as you left last year, he married Jiang Zijun. I heard that he also took in two maids. He doesn't even have you in his eyes."

Jiang Yizhou saw Yunxin was about to cry, and thought, why is this girl still concerned about the question of "whether she has you in her heart"? Isn't it a question of "whether she wants to live or not"? !

"That's right. If you go back, those servants won't know how to deal with it."

"Miss, you can't go back--"

Jiang Yizhou glanced at everyone's concerned and anxious faces, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She was very satisfied with everyone's current situation.

Jiang Yizhou waited for everyone to finish speaking before she spoke slowly and lazily, "Okay, don't worry, I will never leave here casually. We have worked so hard to build this place, and we haven't even harvested the fruits of our labor yet."

"You won't leave easily? That means you will still leave?" Zhang Ni immediately grasped the key point of the words.

Yun Xin said quickly, "Yes, even if we harvest the wheat this time, we can't go back. What if they set fire again?"

Several people nodded.

Liao Qi said, "I heard someone outside say that the son-in-law has hooked up with an official from Zezhou. The other party seems to be very optimistic about him and is planning to recruit him as a son-in-law. So, I think..."

Yun Xin, Yu Cui and Zhang Ni exclaimed, "What? He...he is going to be someone else's son-in-law again? What about the young lady?"

Yucui's face turned pale immediately. She looked at Jiang Yizhou: "Could it be that he wants to come and pick you up personally, and then..."

Yunxin and Zhang Ni also thought of this, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble out of fear.

Jiang Yizhou saw that the girls were really frightened, and he quickly comforted them: "Don't worry, your young lady will never take risks easily. I have my own plan."

After saying that, he looked at Liao Qi again: "By the way, how did you know that he had been involved in Zezhou's affairs?"

Liao Qi was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, "Miss, do you already know?"

Jiang Yizhou nodded calmly, "Yeah. I want to know how you know about Zezhou?"

According to the information provided by Wei Ke every day, Liao Qi was basically at the farm and only went out a few times, and the range of his activities was also within Fusong Town, and the people he came into contact with were all people in the pottery shop.

So, where is his source?

Jiang Yizhou has always doubted Liao Qi's identity.

Later, when he had several fights with others, the opponent's punches seemed to be disorganized, but they gave people a sense of calmness and stability, which is definitely not the psychological quality and skills that ordinary people have.

But the other party has always been very down-to-earth and responsible, and Jiang Yizhou was busy with things at the farm, so he didn't investigate further.

But this time, Liao Qi brought up the topic himself, so Jiang Yizhou was bound to ask about it.
