in the afternoon,

The warm autumn sun was setting in the west, and a cloud floated over, just blocking it. The air began to feel a little cooler, without the heat of the autumn tiger, making people feel very comfortable.

A truly refreshing autumn day!

At the brick kiln in the west of the village, everyone was still working hard.

Moreover, amid the current excitement, there is also a lot of joy.

Because at noon not only did he eat meat and get paid, but he also saved the land in the village.

All of this is thanks to the kindness of the workshop, which is willing to give advance wages at this time.

later,

The fifth uncle spoke to everyone earnestly: The young master was willing to give an advance on wages at this time, which prevented the farm from being acquired. He took the risk of offending people and making enemies, and everyone should be grateful.

"Don't worry, uncle. We will be at the forefront if anything happens in the future..."

"That's right. We've been working here all our lives..."

"From now on, I'll hit you wherever I point..."

Er Zhuang said: "I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life!" Of course he knew that anyone who was willing to lend him money at this time would risk offending the neighboring farm, especially a newly built workshop. They would make enemies for him before they even shipped any goods. He would remember it for the rest of his life and would follow them no matter what happened in the future.

Suancai: "Good brother, I'll follow you!"

"Hey, didn't you go to knead the porcelain?" Er Zhuang found the sauerkraut that was piled up in his car.

Suancai said, "Today is the first time the kiln is fired, everyone is here, even the girls are here."

"Then let's work harder and get it burning soon..."

"go!"

"One, two, three, let's get started..."

Everyone pushed wheelbarrows and pushed the dried bricks and tiles into the brick kiln.

Xiyan is usually busy with the kiln factory's paperwork, so he was not here this afternoon as usual.

Xia Shi was in the brick kiln, directing everyone to arrange the bricks layer by layer. How to arrange them, how high to arrange them, how much space to have between them? What are the precautions? These all need to be explained in detail one by one. Now is the perfect time to teach while doing.

I have to say that Erzhuang is really smart. He is the type who can learn something once taught and he remembers things very quickly.

She put what she pointed at, and was able to apply what she had learned to stack the other things neatly and quickly. Her thin shoulders seemed to have endless strength.

Xia Shi stopped him, his face covered in sweat, and said, "Er Zhuang, stop for a moment."

"What's up girl?"

Xia Shi asked: "Have you always memorized things so quickly?"

Er Zhuang: "Not always, it's just that I can remember everything I've seen since I was a child!" The skinny Er Zhuang was doing the physical work of moving piles of bricks. In the autumn weather, he was so tired that his face was covered with sweat, but he never stopped for a moment and said with some embarrassment.

Xia Shi said: "Since you remember quickly, you will be responsible for recording the details and regulations, and the craftsmanship of firing. I heard that the village is going to set up a clan school, and the workshop will pay for it. You can go there to listen and learn some words, so that you can write account books in the future..."

"Girl?" Er Zhuang suddenly opened his eyes wide in surprise. He didn't expect that she would not only learn a craft but also learn to read?

Xia Shi said: "I can't take care of everything by myself. I have to open other workshops in the future, and I have to take care of them. I won't stay here all the time. Someone has to do other things, such as washing inkstones and running external affairs. I need to promote some people to be in charge.

The son said,

It is not convenient for him to go out, so he asked me to recommend some suitable ones. I will arrange for them to learn to read first, and then make the final decision!"

Plop!

Er Zhuang knelt down again, his eyes full of excitement, his shoulders trembling slightly as he said:

"Thank you for your cultivation, young lady!"

"It's not me who cultivated you, it's you who's great. Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. Hurry up and get up. Don't kneel down at every turn..."

Er Zhuang quickly got up and followed along, carefully writing down every word Xia Shi said and every point that needed attention.

He was smart since he was young. He was able to remember some words after attending classes in the town several times while selling firewood. Unfortunately, his family was poor, and as he grew older he had to work in the fields, so he no longer had the chance to attend classes. He also knew that he would never have the chance to study again in his life.

Unexpectedly, this opportunity came.

What preparations are there? They were all given by her.

The grace of knowing you,

He was certain in his heart that he would do his job well and follow her through thick and thin.

"……",

While I was doing something, someone suddenly ran in and said, "Girl, something bad has happened!"

This was the second time Xia Shi had heard the words "Oh no!" today.

"what happened?"

"Constable, there are many constables in the village..."

Hearing this, Xia Shi quickly put down the work in his hands and ran home.

Lou Junze is still at home.

Thinking of the notice Xiyan had said this morning, he must not let anyone see his face.

She thought as she ran, and decided to ask Lei Huo to go to the starship's warehouse this morning to find the gift given to her by her cousin who loved reading novels - a large set of boxes for disguise.

She used to not understand why her cousin prepared all these messy things for her business trip, but now she takes back her words.

My cousin is so wise and powerful. I love her so much. Now I’m going to put her to good use.

Thinking about the things her cousin gave her, she hasn’t even looked at many of them. It seems that when she has time in the future, she can enjoy opening blind boxes!

Thinking of this, she was worried about her boss and ran very fast.

From a distance, he saw many constables running towards the village entrance. Xia Shi wanted to go home quickly and was about to climb over the wall to disguise Lou Junze.

An arm blocked her way.

It's Kuishan.

He said, "…I am worried that you may be worried, so I specifically told you to come and tell you that the county lieutenant of Linshui County and the general of the cavalry stationed nearby are both my old subordinates!"

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, especially with Miss Xia and a baby.

Lou Junze is a man of plans and will not let her be in danger. Apart from the unexpected confession of Zhenbei Hou last time, he has never lost before.

Today, I didn't stop those evil slaves. I took this opportunity to get to know each other.

It's a happy event.

Xia Shi breathed a sigh of relief.

Kuishan said, "We have prepared some fruit wine and cakes in the courtyard. Girl, just sit behind the grape trellis and treat it as a show!"

"...", wow~( ̄▽ ̄~)~,

When Xia Shi slowly walked in through the gate and turned behind the grape trellis, he saw that the stone table was filled with delicious food. There was also a bamboo rocking chair next to the table, with a small thin blanket on it.

Wow, it's really comfortable and professional. The person who can prepare these must be a person who loves comfort.

That's so thoughtful.

She can start watching the show and be a spectator without any worries.

……

At the back of the mountain, behind the hillside, my fifth uncle, with his back straight, twisted his crutch, and a clanging sound of iron colliding came from it... Well, very good!

……

At the entrance of the village, the son of the manager of the neighboring farm was running breathlessly behind the captain's horse.

"Sir, the thief with three thousand taels is on this mountain..."
