Traveling back to ancient times to make money and raise children is also free

I thought that after arranging these things, I just had to wait to set off, but the tribe leader came to see me early the next morning.

As soon as he entered the door, he smiled at me, his wrinkled face was full of smiles. This old man is not like this usually, he always looks like he wants to teach someone a lesson with a stern face. If something is out of the ordinary, it must be a traitor or a thief.

It's just that I don't have anything worth calculating here.

I asked cautiously, "Grandpa, the clan leader! If you have anything to say, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse. If I can't do it, don't blame me."

"Hahahaha, these are just a piece of cake for Dalang's wife. Look, the emperor has issued an imperial decree this time. This is not just an honor for you alone. The whole village and the clan will be proud of it. Do you think we should have this imperial decree enshrined in the ancestral temple?"

Oh my god, there is such a thing.

"Why should it be placed in the ancestral temple? I think it would be fine to put it in my yard! I am confused by the clan leader's magical operation." It's just an imperial edict. Is there any difference between putting it here with me and putting it in the ancestral temple?

"Oh my, kid, why don't you understand?" When the clan leader saw me answer like this, he got so anxious that his eyes turned red and he stamped his feet.

Xiu Wen, who was about to go back to the city with Jiang Chuan, heard the conversation between me and the clan leader and stopped. He bowed to the clan leader and said, "Grandpa clan leader, please wait a moment. Let me talk to my mother first."

"Go ahead and tell your mother everything, so she won't think that the old man is bullying her, humph!"

Xiu Wen was trying not to laugh, so I pulled him aside. "Mother, clan leader, grandpa's idea is to enshrine the imperial edict in the main ancestral hall, so that young men and women in the clan will have better luck in getting married in the future. With this imperial edict, people will look up to us when we talk about it. Why don't we just follow the clan leader's example and put the imperial edict in the ancestral hall?"

So that's the reason. No wonder his face is so smiling like a chrysanthemum. It's hard to think about this old man. He thinks a lot about the tribe.

But the ancestral hall has been in disrepair for a long time. It is not safe to put it in there. I asked tentatively, "Patriarch, is it leaking inside the hall? Isn't it inappropriate to put the imperial edict in there?"

"Hey, I want to discuss this with you, Dalang's wife, to see if I can use your cement inside the ancestral hall? How about repairing it?"

Here comes this old fox. No wonder he is smiling so brightly and looking so amiable. He is here to take my money.

But thinking about the help the old man gave us, it was like a timely help. Forget it, just give some money. Just consider it as repaying the kindness.

But the timing is not right! I am leaving the village soon. I don’t know when I will be back. I don’t have time to repair it!

I was a little embarrassed. "Grandpa, you have already spoken. It's not that I don't want to, but you also know that I will leave for Weibei soon according to the imperial decree. If you have time, please help repair the ancestral temple at home!"

"The emperor has issued an order, which is a huge matter. How can our little things delay your trip? I mean, as long as you make the cement powder, it will be fine. Let the villagers do the rest. Anyway, Dazhu and the others will also use the cement powder, so when the time comes, ask them to call the group of people who did it before. Isn't it solved?"

If that's the case, then there's nothing to say. Mix some cement powder and work harder. There should be no problem before departure. If it doesn't work, there are still so many piled up in the warehouse. It doesn't matter if you use the prepared ones in advance.

"Is that so? That's no problem. We can ask Dazhu and the others to come over and move the things. In addition, I will give another five taels of silver as a token of our family's appreciation. Those who work here will get an extra lunch. This will be used as their salary. You, the clan leader, will make the arrangements."

"Hehe, this is good, this is good, Dalong's wife, you are very reasonable!"

"As for the imperial edict, when will it be placed in the ancestral temple? Let's wait until it's finished. If we put it there now, if something goes wrong, it will be a big deal."

"Okay, then we'll do as Dalang's wife said. The imperial decree will be followed until the repairs are completed before enshrining the temple. Let's ask Dazhu and the others to move the cement powder over today."

"No problem, you can make the decision on these matters. Everyone knows that in our clan, even you are the most fair."

"Hahaha, that's right."

Xiu Wen watched me coax the clan leader into a smile, and then he went back to call people. He also thought it was very funny. When he saw the old man walking away, he told me to take care of myself, then got on the carriage and went to the city with Jiang Chuan.

Watching them leave one by one, I had no choice but to accept my fate and went back to the limestone and clay, trying to mix more cement powder so that they would not be enough.

If it's a little bit off, more or less? It will definitely worry these people. It's better to do enough and leave it at home, let them do whatever they want.
