"How do you know he's not the real Manager Li?" On the way back, He Jingheng smiled and said, "You have a good insight. If you were a man, you would definitely go to the military camp and get a position."

Shang Ruoyi sneered, what does it matter if she is a girl or a boy? "Don't look down on people, girls are not necessarily worse than boys."

He Jingheng nodded seriously: "You are right."

Unexpectedly, he agreed with what she said. Shang Ruoyi looked at him suspiciously.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm saying something against my will?" He smiled and said, "There are many things that men can do that women can do, but there are some things that only women can do. I knew this a few years ago."

"for example?"

"Like, seduction."

Shang Ruoyi nodded, it was true: "There are many more, but you don't know them yet."

In the past, it was more difficult to train a female agent than a male agent, and the cost was higher.

He Jingheng's inquiring gaze fell on her. He prided himself on knowing countless people and never making a mistake, but he could never see through the woman in front of him.

A girl in the boudoir not only knows martial arts and cooking, but is also proficient in medicine and knows how to manipulate people's hearts. These are not things that a girl from Tianshun Guige should know at all.

Early the next morning, the workers who signed up to build the house arrived at the door of the He family on time.

Looking at the piles of blue bricks, I couldn't help but widen my eyes.

To them, the idea of ​​using blue bricks to build houses was simply unthinkable.

This is blue brick! Even the rich families in the town would not easily use blue bricks for construction, let alone in the poorest Shiya Village.

“We’re going to use this to build a house?”

Shang Ruoyi nodded and said with a smile: "We are going to build a three-story courtyard here, and we must finish it before winter. Please work hard during this period, and I will give you a big red envelope when the time comes."

When they heard that there were red envelopes, everyone became excited.

Mr. Wu is responsible for all matters related to building the house.

Old Wu held the drawing made by Shang Ruoyi in his hands, treating it like a treasure.

In this far north, keeping warm in winter is extremely important. Shang Ruoyi designed a warm room. Every living room is suspended in the air, and a space similar to the basement in the previous life is dug out underneath. In winter, the burned charcoal can be placed in the basement, and the heat will rise, so the living room will be very warm.

This is the Fire Earth system.

Qin called Shang Ruoyi aside and said worriedly, "Ruoyi, with so many people, do you have enough money?"

It turned out to be this matter. Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "It's enough. Don't worry."

Qin held her hand, tears welling in her eyes, "My child, you have suffered so much. I have been married into the Dingguo Palace for so many years, enjoying the splendor and wealth that others have never enjoyed. Today is worth it, but you have only been married for a few days, and Jingheng has been ignoring you. Not only have you not had a few days of comfortable life, but you have to live this hard life with us."

"Mom, we are a family. You are treating me as an outsider." Shang Ruoyi smiled. She liked everyone in the He family except He Jingheng. Although Qin was weak, she treated her sincerely.

In the kitchen, several cooks looked at half a piece of pork and swallowed their saliva. Was this really for them to eat?

On ordinary days, they hardly see meat even during the Chinese New Year. Now, there is so much meat in front of them, which is beyond their imagination.

"Are these today's dishes?" They had never seen so much meat before and were afraid to cut it for a moment.

Shang Ruoyi walked in and saw that they hadn't started yet, so she asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Boss, have you cooked all this meat today?"

"Let's split it into two meals!" She said with a smile, "Building a house is hard work. How can you get the energy if you don't eat enough?"

At noon, when the meals were served on the table, they were all stunned.

Meat! It was actually meat!

"I smelled the delicious food coming out of the kitchen a long time ago, but I didn't expect there would be meat. I haven't had meat in years."

"Oh my god, am I hallucinating? I get paid for working for him. I've never seen such a good boss."

"As expected of the Dingguo Palace, even if it is exiled, it is not something that ordinary people like us can achieve."

"It would be nice if we could eat meat every day."

Shang Ruoyi smiled and said nothing when she heard this.

At this time, two men in the crowd looked at the bread and meat on the table, and looked at each other in disbelief.

Where did the money for Prince Ding’s palace come from?

When they were exiled, everyone would hide a few dozen taels of silver. Those who were truly poor basically died on the way to exile, and few of them could arrive alive.

But looking at the actions of the He family, how could they have hidden just a few dozen taels?

This must be at least a few hundred taels of silver.

In the evening, when the wages were paid, He Jingxi called out the names one by one and asked them to step forward to receive the money.

Everyone looked at the twenty cents in their hands and became very excited.

One of the men actually began to sob softly.

"What's wrong?" He Jingxi asked with a frown, "Did I give you less money?" He quickly counted it and found that it was correct!

The man knelt down with a plop and said, "Thank you. My daughter almost died because I didn't have money to pay for medical treatment. Now that I have money, I can go to the town to get medicine tomorrow. Thank you, thank you."

The man kept kowtowing. Wen Xi frowned slightly and walked forward: "What's wrong with your daughter? Let me take a look at her."

"The boss knows how to treat illnesses?" Wang Erzhu hurriedly wiped the tears from his face. "A doctor examined me before and said I caught a cold. I should have been cured by taking a few doses of medicine, but I didn't have the money to buy medicine. Now I'm in a coma."

Shang Ruoyi returned to the room, picked up the medicine box that Old Wu had made for her, and whispered, "I'll go with you to take a look!"

"Thank you, boss!"

Shang Ruoyi turned around and was about to leave, but He Jingheng walked over slowly. He was still lame, but not much: "It's getting dark, I'll go with you."

"Okay." Although they are a fake couple, they still have to save face in front of outsiders.

Watching the two of them leave side by side, Qin nodded with satisfaction. Their relationship had clearly warmed up recently, and she might soon have a grandson.

There was a hint of excitement in her eyes, and then a little sadness.

If it were still in the former Dingguo Palace, the birth of a little prince would definitely be a happy and joyous thing, and the palace would not have to be bustling for long. But now that the Dingguo Palace has fallen to this point, the child will be labeled a criminal when he is born. It's sad to think about it.

He Yunyi knew what her mother was thinking. She sighed softly. Was her mother thinking too beautifully? She hadn't told her mother that when she went into the room to look for her sister-in-law yesterday, the way the quilt was placed showed that they slept separately.

I'm afraid my beautiful wish of having a grandson will be dashed.
