Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!
Chapter 237: Polite
After Xiao Hu let go of the young man, the few of them walked out the door.
"Brother Xu, are we going too far by doing this?" Xiao Hu said. Xiao Hu was the clerk who first spoke to Xu Wenyan.
Xu Wenyan waved his hand: "Brother, you are wrong. If you are not cruel to him, he will only become more cruel to you. Good people are often bullied, and good horses..." While speaking, Xu Wenyan touched Xiaohong's head: "Our Xiaohong is the kindest pony in the world!"
Afterwards, the few people found a few more families, basically all of whom were instigated by the young man yesterday. After some intimidation, they indeed became much more obedient.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Xu Wenyan asked Chen Xingjie to contact other families. They had all seen what happened to those families.
The government really does arrest people to serve in the army.
Who can remain calm now?
Chen Xingjie didn't even need to look for them, as they all came to him first.
Seeing that the matter was almost settled, Xu Wenyan took Xiao Hu and a few others to his home for dinner. Since they helped him with the work, they had to have a meal.
Xu Wenyan pulled four clerks into the house and sat down, preparing to eat.
"Hey, Brother Xu, look at how polite you are. It's really not necessary." Xiao Hu said politely with an embarrassed smile.
Xu Wenyan said, "Okay, I won't keep you here, just be careful on the road.
...Wait, it's not him, he won't persuade me anymore? Xiao Hu was stunned. The noodles at Qing'an Restaurant were so delicious. Today was a rare opportunity to eat them. But because of his humble words, he couldn't have them?
There was silence for a few seconds, and Xiao Hu walked forward with a feeling of grievance.
"Haha, I'm just kidding you, come in quickly." If I don't stop them, they will break into pieces.
A few clerks no longer hesitated and sat at the table, waiting obediently for the delicious meal.
"There are a lot of things at home. Do you want noodles or stir-fried dishes?" Xu Wenyan tied on an apron. This was brought back to him by Rong Xiaoliu yesterday. He saved the money he had given him before and bought one for Xu Wenyan when he went to the county today.
The main body looks brown and black, with small blue flowers embroidered on it.
Chen Sanlin was chopping wood when he saw his wife wearing an apron. For some reason, his heart beat faster. How come Xu Wenyan looked like a real wife today?
So gentle.
"Uh, Brother Xu, we can both."
Xu Wenyan smiled and said, "Well, let's make noodles. Wait for a while."
Several petty officials swallowed their saliva, and for a moment they couldn't understand how a man could be born so fair and handsome.
After the family finished their meal, Xu Wenyan followed a few clerks to Chen Xingjie. The amount of money paid by the villagers varied, and many families asked Chen Xingjie to ask Xu Wenyan.
Can I still work in their house to pay off the debt? They really don’t have a penny left.
Xu Wenyan took a rough look at the registration situation. The villagers still couldn't afford to pay the money. The only ones who could pay were Zheng Liwei's family, or those families with only one child.
"Brother Xingjie, if someone comes to you again, just say yes, but only one person from each family can come. The construction period is related to the number of people in the family." It's not good to have too many people working.
Only with the right people can Xu Wenyan better assign work.
"I'm sorry to bother you with today's matter. I will send the money to the county government tomorrow."
The four clerks got on their horses and said goodbye to Xu Wenyan: "Well, we will pass on the message."
By the afternoon, almost everyone in the village came to Chen Xingjie's house. After all, such an important matter could not be delayed, and no one wanted to be captured and forced to serve.
The villagers felt a little embarrassed when they saw Xu Wenyan, and those who had a better relationship with him went to be polite with Xu Wenyan.
After working for most of the day, the whole village decided to help Xu Wenyan finish building the house.
Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, the result is good.
The next morning, all the people who had made an appointment yesterday came to report to Xu Wenyan.
Xiaoman is holding a big board.
The names of these people are written on the board. When you come, you put a check mark behind them, and when you leave, you have to check another one.
This is similar to signing in.
"I believe everyone already knows how to make yellow mud bricks. The sooner the house is built, the better.
The potatoes will be ready for harvest in two months, so don’t delay everyone’s harvest.”
The black bear followed Xu Wenyan all the way, and would bare its teeth whenever someone got close to Xu Wenyan. The black bear was a very smart dog and would not take the initiative to bite anyone.
Chen Sanlin is going to take others to Qing'an Hall to do business today. In ancient times, there were much fewer holidays than there are now. He didn't go yesterday, and it would not be good if he didn't go today.
Moreover, there were no such things as mobile phones in ancient times, so it was very troublesome to ask for leave.
"Everyone just take a shovel and start digging. All the half that I have enclosed needs to be dug. It will only take about one meter." Because this is a large flat floor, the foundation does not need to be very deep.
Let Xiaoman stay here to watch them, while he and Black Bear take some people to cut wood. It will take more than a dozen people to transport the wood back.
This time they were cutting fir wood, which is relatively soft in texture and has good anti-corrosion and waterproof properties. Xu Wenyan had cut some nearby before, so if he wanted to cut more, he would have to go somewhere farther away.
When he arrived at the back slope of the mountain, Xu Wenyan saw several thick fir trees. There were thinner fir trees nearby, but they were used as main branches, so he had to find thick ones.
After organizing the people, they started sawing. With more than a dozen people taking turns sawing, it probably wouldn't take long to saw it down.
Xu Wenyan was hiding to the side, and when he looked down along the back of the mountain, he saw another treasure.
