Chapter 71: So Beautiful! A Self-sufficient Life
Hear this living voice.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile.
Damn it.
What about the sadness and homesickness you promised me?
Is that all?
Little sister, you are funny too, right?
But this is just fine.
The provincial prime minister and others said that he treated Xu San harshly.
Jiang Chen opened his pace and stepped into the yard.
I saw Xu San leading a few girls to fly a kite.
It was a cold winter day and Xu San was wrapped up like a snowball.
Not forgetting Jiang Chen's instructions, she even put on a veil.
Only a pair of shining eyes were revealed.
The girls around him looked about the same age as Xu San.
If it weren't for the flood, he would probably be as lively as Xu San.
Now with Xu San leading the way, the whole yard was filled with laughter.
A girl saw Jiang Chen and quickly covered her mouth, exclaiming in a low voice.
"Ah! The master is back."
Xu San and several other girls heard the girl say this.
He quickly turned around and saluted Jiang Chen.
"My lord, you are back!"
Xu San didn't salute, but just scratched his head.
She said to Jiang Chen in a very sweet and naive way.
"Brother, you're back!"
It was very helpful to be called brother.
Jiang Chen hummed with a satisfied look on his face.
Turning around, he whispered to the other girls.
"You guys get up."
"The ground is cold, you don't have to kneel anymore."
The girls stood up obediently and responded collectively.
The look in her eyes towards Jiang Chen was full of shyness and joy.
Jiang Chen smiled at them.
Said in a deep voice.
"I have something to discuss with her. You guys should go back first."
"It's getting late. Let's play together tomorrow."
Besides, it’s so dark now, why fly a kite?
What if there was a timid person walking on the road at night and a Bodhisattva suddenly fell from the sky?
Shouldn't you just kneel down?
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen waved to the girls.
She directly carried Xu San into her yard.
The little girl played outside for half a day.
There was sweat all over my forehead from running.
At this time, he entered the room with a rosy face.
It adds a touch of girlish charm.
Jiang Chen's Adam's apple rolled as he watched.
Just hold the whole snowball in your lap.
Xu San hugged Jiang Chen's neck without any defense.
Said tenderly.
"Brother, what's the matter that you want to talk about that can't you wait until my sisters and I finish flying the kite?"
Taking out a handkerchief from his bosom, Jiang Chen wiped the sweat off her face, his face full of doting.
"It's already late today, and your sisters just came back from work during the day."
“It’s still very hard.”
Nodded.
Xu San said with great guilt.
" Then I won't go play with them anymore. Let them have more rest."
Jiang Chen scratched her little nose.
“That’s not right.”
“Although they have to work, it’s not hard work.”
"And they will be happy if you go play with them."
"You can still play with them in the future, but just be moderate."
"Yeah!" He nodded happily.
Xu San agreed immediately.
Looking at her little face, Jiang Chen whispered.
"I've arranged it."
"I'll take you to meet your parents the day after tomorrow."
"It's been a while since we last met. Your parents must have missed you too."
A gentle voice came into her ears.
Xu San widened his eyes in disbelief.
Looking at Jiang Chen, her eyes gradually filled with joy.
"Really, can you really let me see my father and mother?"
Look at her joy.
Jiang Chen nodded.
"Yes."
"But you have to dress more modestly."
"Pretend to be a singing girl like any other girl and walk into the room."
"Otherwise, it will be discovered soon."
He added softly.
Xu San's eyes gradually turned red.
She put her head into Jiang Chen's arms and actually felt pain.
"elder brother."
“You’re so nice to me!”
Her head rubbed against Jiang Chen's chin, and her soft hair made Jiang Chen feel itchy.
Xu San sobbed into his chest.
This immediately aroused Jiang Chen's desire to protect her.
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice after patting her head.
"Don't cry."
The next day.
Jiang Chen went directly from the mansion to the fiefdom.
I heard that the fiefdom has changed a lot in the past twenty days.
Jiang Chen couldn't wait to go and take a look.
A few hours later, Jiang Chen got off the carriage.
Before he left, he handed over all the affairs of the fiefdom to Gan Lao San to take care of.
He was very relieved about Gan Laosan.
Passed by the iconic grave.
Jiang Chen saw a small incense burner placed in front.
There were still a few incense sticks burning inside.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh.
"It's quite like that."
Jiang Chen walked straight past a mound of earth and reached the flat land by the river.
Seeing the scene before him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Just twenty days.
Then the world will change.
I saw that different heights of fences had been built between the land and between the yards.
The house, which was almost completed, became more complete.
There were even wisps of smoke coming out of the chimneys of some wooden houses.
A deep pit has been dug at a site near the river.
The inside was filled with river water.
Jiang Chen knew that this was in preparation for raising fish fry next year.
A little further away was a high wall made of long wooden boards.
The ground inside has been trampled hard.
It seems to be the training ground used for training private soldiers.
The big iron pot is gone.
Jiang Chen thought it must have been thrown away, but he turned around and saw a large iron pot hanging high on the wall of the training ground.
Damn it.
It's quite commemorative.
I saw people moving around in the yard.
But it’s not Gan Lao San.
Jiang Chen ignored him and walked straight into a yard.
"anyone there?"
Standing outside the fenced gate, Jiang Chen shouted loudly.
Soon a woman came out of the wooden house.
"Who is it?"
When she saw Jiang Chen, the woman's face suddenly showed astonishment.
"My lord, you are here, my lord!"
"Please come on, sir!"
The woman almost ran, and her eyes were filled with joy when she saw Jiang Chen.
"Sir, why do you need to knock on the door when you come?"
"This is your territory, where can't you go?"
Jiang Chen had a smile on his face.
Said in a deep voice.
"Since the land has been allocated to you, it is your territory."
"I came here to ask."
Just two words warm her whole day.
The woman's eyes were filled with emotion.
Before he could open his mouth, he heard Jiang Chen ask.
“Can every household cook now?”
The woman nodded hurriedly.
"it is ready."
"During this period, Gan Lao San led the blacksmiths to make iron pots, kitchen knives and other kitchen utensils."
"With the rice distributed to every household, we can already cook at home."
Jiang Chen couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"You built it yourself?"
The woman nodded and pointed to the distance and said to Jiang Chen.
"It's over there, sir."
“They are still working on it.”
"Some time ago, Gan Lao San led the men out to pick up iron blocks."
"It took me a long time to build a large cauldron and send it to the restaurant."
"Look, the rest is made into an iron pot and a kitchen knife."
"In addition to the blacksmith, the carpenter is also making new furniture for us!"
