Now that there is enough money, even the daily diet of the soldiers working there has improved a lot.
Lu Qiyan even estimated with Fang Linwang that there would even be some money left after the bridge construction was completed.
Those people are generous, and Lu Qiyan is naturally not stingy either. The names of these wealthy gentry families will appear on both the bridge body and the bridge piers, which can be regarded as informing other people who have obtained ill-gotten wealth to let them know. What should be done in the future?
Lu Qiyan continued, "As for the shortage of stone, it's just because of the cold weather. It snowed two days ago in the north, which delayed the mining of stone. It's not a big deal. We can hurry up and it won't be delayed. Time."
"That's good." Xia Mingyue felt much lighter and relaxed when she saw that the difficulties Lu Qiyan was facing seemed to have been completely resolved.
This breath was long and slow, causing Lu Qiyan to raise his eyebrows.
Xia Mingyue seems...
Are you worried about him?
Pouring another cup of tea and drinking it all, Lu Qiyan hugged the charcoal basin and roasted for a while to make sure that he was not so cold and that Xia Mingyue would not notice the coldness when he entered the house. Lu Qiyan then extinguished the candle on the table in the main room and entered the back room.
Jiu Niang had moved to the side in the afternoon. At this time, Lu Qiyan's kang had been cleaned up and bedding had been laid out.
Because Xia Mingyue was afraid of the cold, she would light both earthen kangs on fire at night to make the room warmer, so Lu Qiyan's kang was also warm at this time.
When Lu Qiyan realized that his kang was warm, his mind changed slightly.
Taking off his outer armor, leaving only his middle coat, Lu Qiyan lay down on the bed and turned over.
Noticing that Lu Qiyan was breathing heavily and evenly soon, Xia Mingyue felt that he was probably fast asleep. Thinking about the ending of the book "A Dream in the Boudoir", she simply didn't extinguish the candle and just raised the pillow. I rested my head and continued to read the last few pages.
Lu Qiyan realized that Xia Mingyue had not slept, and was a little surprised at first. When he heard the slight sound of turning pages, he turned his head slightly to confirm that Xia Mingyue was reading the storybook, and he felt at ease. Just close your eyes and get ready for sleep.
But before Lu Qiyan fell asleep, he heard a "pop" sound.
Lu Qiyan stood up with his arms to support him, and saw that the storybook that was originally in Xia Mingyue's hand had fallen to the ground, and Xia Mingyue was already leaning and completely asleep...
< br>From the moment Xia Mingyue lay down and started reading the storybook, she didn't even have time for a cup of tea. Being able to fall asleep so quickly meant that she was extremely sleepy, but she still wanted to read the storybook greedily.
I am really sleepy and playful.
Lu Qiyan couldn't help but laugh, but looked at Xia Mingyue's arms that were still exposed because she was reading the script...
If you don't cover yourself with a quilt like this, I'm afraid your shoulders will hurt when you wake up tomorrow.
But if he goes to cover her with a quilt and wakes her up...
After hesitating and thinking for a long time, Lu Qiyan decided to get up and quietly walked to Xia Mingyue, Carefully pick up her arm Then he carefully pulled the quilt up a little more...
During the whole process, Lu Qiyan held his breath and concentrated, not daring to let out a breath for fear of waking her up, until it completely covered Xia Mingyue's arms. After getting under the quilt, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Aware that a layer of fine beads of sweat had formed on his back, which was cold and sticky and uncomfortable, Lu Qiyan frowned slightly, picked up the storybook that fell on the ground, and then Blow out the candle...
In the dead of night, Lu Qiyan yawned and closed his eyes again. The next morning, Xia Mingyue got up early as usual and started her busy day.
Lu Qiyan got up earlier than Xia Mingyue. In addition to stretching his muscles before the workers came, he also wanted to feed the horses well.
Since Xia Mingyue renovated the courtyard at home according to her own needs, the open space has become a bit small. Now that vegetables have been planted, there is even less free space.
Feeding horses requires fodder, and the taste is a bit strong...
Lu Qiyan saw the busy work in the kitchen, and after thinking for a moment, he simply took the horse to find a carriage shop in the county town, gave him some money, and asked him to feed it for two days.
There are many military personnel in Jinqiu County who cannot take good care of their horses when they go home to visit relatives and seek help from a car dealership to feed them. The owner of the car dealership is also quite used to it and only promises to feed the horses well. Please Lu Qiyan was relieved.
After settling the horses, Lu Qiyan walked back.
On the way back, we passed by Xia Kee breakfast stall.
At the food stall, the four Yang Daya sisters were busy selling various breakfasts. The stall was quite lively with people coming and going.
Lu Qiyan saw the Xia Ji sign hanging on the food stall, and felt that this food stall had never been seen before, and felt that it was a bit novel, so he slowed down and took a second look.
Yang Daya also noticed Lu Qiyan at this time.
Seeing that he looked familiar, he recalled that he and Yang Erya went to Xia Mingyue's house in the morning to buy goods, and saw him there, who was Xia Mingyue's husband, so she smiled and nodded politely. Say hello sexually.
Seeing this, Lu Qiyan nodded slightly as a response.
The two parties were not familiar with each other, so there was no exchange of greetings. Yang Daya continued to be busy, while Lu Qiyan was still walking towards home.
Mrs. Yu saw this scene in her eyes, rolled her eyes in a circle, and spoke to Yang Daya with a smile, "Madam Yang, it was Lu Dutou who greeted you just now."
Yang Daya Ya didn't know Lu Qiyan, but when she got up in the morning and listened to people talking, she vaguely knew that Xia Mingyue's husband's surname was Lu, and he served in the military, so she nodded, "Yeah."
"Speaking of which, this Lu Dutou is also a powerful person. He looks like a scholar, but he has good skills and has been rising up in the army. His future is really incredible. "
Mrs. Yu shook her head with a sigh, "It's a pity that Lu Dutou also married early. Otherwise, what kind of daughter of a good family wouldn't be able to marry the head of the family?"
This is talking about Xia Xia. The lady is not good?
Yang Daya paused in the movements of her hands, and looked at Mrs. Yu with a somewhat unkind look, "This matter of marriage is all about fate. Presumably, Lu Dutou and Madam Xia are destined to be together."
"Of course it's all about fate. In my opinion, Madam Yang, you are also a destined person." Mrs. Yu said with a smile.
“How do you say that?” Yang Daya was a little confused.
"This Ludu has a bright future. There must be more than just Madam Xia as his wife. She has several concubines. Madam Yang is about the same age, good-looking, and It's with Xia Ji There is a lot of traffic here, the first to get the moon is the tower near the water, Mrs. Yang is a little more attentive, and from now on..."
Ms. Yu stopped talking, but winked and looked like "you understand".
Does this mean she is rushing to be Lu Dutou's concubine? (End of this chapter)
