ALL NOVEL Chapter 33 Will he be the master?
There were so many people in the village at once, and the villagers all ran out of the village to watch the excitement curiously. Even Xiao Jing, who had been waiting for Yuanchu and his family for a long time, heard such noise and couldn't help but go out to see what was going on.
"Where are there so many people? What's going on?" Xiao Jing stood aside and looked at so many people and wondered.
Xuan Yue, who was driving the carriage for the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, saw Xiao Jing and his five bodyguards who stood out among the crowd of spectators at a glance. He parked the car and let Yuan Chu get out of the car, then quickly walked to Xiao Jing to salute and say hello.
"What are you doing here? And here, where are all these people? What are they doing?"
Xiao Jing asked Xuan Yue, pointing to the group of people who followed Yuan Chuyi and the village chief to the hut next to them.
Xuan Yue repaid him truthfully.
Xiao Jing sneered, "How many acres of land does she have and employ so many people?"
Xuan Yue pointed to the land on the other side of the road, "Those three hectares of wasteland belong to Madam Yuan!"
Xiao Jing smiled bitterly, "I thought she was a good boss! She bought so much wasteland and hired so many people, does she have money but no place to spend it!"
He used to think that Mrs. Yuan was brave and knowledgeable, good at medicine and cooking, and expected to be a householder, but now that he saw this situation, he couldn't understand it anymore.
"Well, this subordinate doesn't understand!" Xuan Yue didn't know what Mrs. Yuan's plans were regarding farming.
Xiao Jing looked at Xuan Yue for a while and said with a smile: "I think you and Madam Yuan get along very well!"
Xuan Yue let her master see that she was feeling confused and didn't know what she had done wrong. She hurriedly knelt down and said, "Please forgive me! I just saw Mrs. Yuan going to a deserted village where refugees gathered alone. I was worried about her safety, so I followed her." She went there without any other intention!"
"Why are you panicking? I'm complimenting you!"
But Xuan Yue didn't sound like she was praising herself, "Thank you for the compliment, my subordinate's injury has been recovered, and he will return to the border tomorrow!"
"Okay, get up! I didn't say I wanted you to go back!" Xiao Jing watched Xuan Yue get up and then turned back to the first courtyard of Yuan Chu. "How did Madam Yuan treat you while you were recovering from your injuries?"
"It's very good! I check my subordinate's pulse regularly every day, check his injuries, and even prepare special meals for sick patients! Thanks to Madam Yuan's careful care, my subordinate's injuries wouldn't have healed so quickly!"
They returned to the yard and sat next to the fire in the yard to warm themselves and talk. Two quarters of an hour later, Yuan Chuyi opened the courtyard door and came in. When she saw a few of them sitting in the yard warming themselves by the fire, she didn't show much surprise on their faces. After all, several of their horses were tied up in the open space nearby, and she recognized them at a glance just now.
"I've met the prince and five adults!" She also had the proper courtesy.
The five guards hurriedly stood up and saluted her, saying hello respectfully, "I've met Mrs. Yuan!"
They don't dare to neglect Yuan Chu Yi. Judging from the current situation, she is likely to become the mistress of the palace. Now they don't know what their master's plan is.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was so frightened by the sudden gift from them that he couldn't help but take two steps back and hurriedly gave them a gift in return, "Master Lou, you guys are giving me such a big gift because you are trying to offend me!"
Xiao Jing saw them coming and going with salutes, and he couldn't help but snorted: "It will be dark by the time you finish being polite!"
Yuan Chuyi smiled awkwardly, "Your Majesty and a few other adults are here to take Master Xuan Yue back. His injury has been healed and he can go back safely! I'm too busy today, so I won't greet you. , if nothing happens, the prince and the adults are welcome to do so!"
Xiao Jing frowned, are you so busy? Too busy to stop and say a few words to yourself? I have been waiting for her all afternoon.
"Hey, can you come and sit down for a while? I have something to tell you!" Xiao Jing shouted towards Yuan Chuyi's back.
Yuan Chuyi pretended not to hear what he said and went straight into the mill next door. She was very busy now and she didn't scream.
The mill workers were also getting ready to leave work at this time. Everyone was doing the finishing work and no one was idle. When Fifteen and Sixteen who were busy counting inside saw her, they all ran up to say hello to her, "Sister, you're back!"
The wages of the mill workers were based on the piece rate system in the first year of the Yuan Dynasty, so she had to count the numbers before work every day. This work was usually done by Shiliu and Shitou, and sometimes Shiv would come to help.
After Yuan Chuyi greeted the two children and asked them to continue their work, she opened the door of the warehouse in the mill. The warehouse was filled with soybeans and prepared yuba, as well as a lot of ordinary rice and ordinary white noodles that she exchanged from the mall.
She had already divided the rice and white flour by kilograms, thirty portions each. A lot of radish, cabbage and eggs were also prepared on the side. She called Zhou Dayong and Aunt Li to help carry them and sent them door to door with her.
Xiao Jing was so angry when he saw that Yuan Chuyi had really left them alone and took the others out to do some work, he was so angry that he wanted to turn around and leave! When had he been so despised? But looking at her back, he held back again, sat down again and continued drinking tea.
"Don't be angry, there are so many people waiting for Mrs. Yuan to settle down!" Xuan Yue said good things to Yuan Chuyi again.
"You see I'm angry!" Xiao Jing said in an unhappy voice.
Xuan Yue smiled awkwardly, they could never figure out their master's thoughts.
"The Chinese New Year will be here in two days. Can't we hire people after the Chinese New Year? Why do we have to hire people back at this time!" Xiao Jing said in a muffled voice.
"Ms. Yuan said that they all have to be hired anyway. They should be hired before the new year and let them settle down and spend the new year in peace. After the new year, they can work with peace of mind!" Xuan Yue said again.
Xiao Jing glared at Xuan Yue with dissatisfaction, "I think you have become hers after living here for a few days!"
Xuan Yue smiled awkwardly, "I forgive you!"
"There are so many people, let's go take a look!" Xiao Jing stood up and walked out the door towards the neat rows of thatched huts nearby. Listening to the noisy people nearby, he was also worried that something might happen to her, and it would be troublesome if she hurt the child in her belly.
When she was in the deserted village in the western suburbs at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, she had already borrowed Liu Zhubo's pen, ink, paper and inkstone to register the list of employees. Now she was distributing food to the list and registering the total number of their families. Man, which house do you live in?
"Cheng Zhongping, Wu Chunxing, your family lives in Courtyard No. 6!" Chuyi checked the names on the roster and checked the identities of the people living in the courtyard. "In addition to you, your family also has an old mother and three children. Yeah?"
"Yes, yes." Cheng Zhongping responded respectfully.
"You have a large family. This house is a bit small, so let's make do with it for now. If you are willing, you can find a way to build a wing or something outside the house."
Her thatched cottages are all one main room, with one room on each side, a small kitchen and a small space in the front, and a hut and a small open space in the back for a vegetable garden. There are no walls or gates, and the total area is Just about 100 square meters.
Cheng Zhongping's family is not too small. Having a house like this for them to live in is much better than living in that ruined temple. The family is extremely grateful to Yuan Chuyi.
