MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 816 blocking stone

  The people in the alley were so enthusiastic that Huo Xi was both moved and at a loss.

  For this moment, not only her, but even the maids around her had their hands full.

   are all kinds of things stuffed by the people. Home-grown vegetables, dried fruits and vegetables in the sun, all kinds of grain and snacks, and even bamboo baskets and baskets.

this…

   "I appreciate everyone's wishes, this is really too much. I can't take any more!"

   "Madam helped us solve the drinking water problem, and we no longer have to run several streets to fetch a load of water. We don't know how to repay Madam's kindness."

   "Yes, yes, I used to have to go through several alleys to pick up a load of water. The alleys are narrow, and if you face each other, you can't avoid it. Pick up a load of water and go home, and there is only half a bucket left when you get home."

"That's not true. My grandson can't grow long just by carrying water. Now there are wells in the streets and alleys, and you can go to fetch water at any time. You don't have to queue up and say nothing, and you don't charge money. Madam dug a well for us ordinary people. Lost our livelihoods and don't know how to express our gratitude."

   "Madam, take it. There is nothing to sell at home. These are too shabby. I hope Madam will not dislike them."

   "I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it." It doesn't matter if you don't accept it.

  Huo Xi was so moved.

   These things may seem worthless, but they are all the wishes of the common people.

   "Thank you everyone, then I will accept it. Seeing that everyone has convenient water, I am also happy for everyone."

  Seeing that Mrs. Shizi didn't dislike the things they gave, and ordered her servants to collect them and put them on the carriage, everyone felt happy. This lady didn't have eyes on the top of her head, and she didn't look down on them.

  Sent out all the way. The carriage was gone, and they were still standing at the alley with their family, looking around.

  Huo Xi said to Gan Qianke with some emotion: "The common people remember love the most. They will always remember whoever treats them well."

  Qian Qianke nodded in agreement.

"At the beginning of the excavation, we all provided tea and meals to the master workers who dug the well, but we didn't need to deliver them later. The people in the alley spontaneously took the tea and food from the masters and the workers. , Meals are included. Even the masters expressed emotion that they have never encountered such a thing. After finishing the work, they refused to leave. They asked me if I still had work, and wanted to continue to do it, saying that the work was comfortable.”

"Yes, although these people living in narrow alleys are suffering, they are most grateful. Now that their draft water problem has been solved, they still have to find ways to solve their livelihood. The people have work to do, money to earn, and life Just had a good time."

  Qian Qian sighed with emotion, only Mrs. Shizi thought about the livelihood of these poor people.

"These days, roads and bridges are being built in the city, and many people have been recruited everywhere. According to Madam's instructions, people from poor families are given priority, and those who are less can earn more than a dozen pennies a day. In addition, Madam The shop in this shop collects fresh flowers, dried fruits and mushrooms of various colors, cotton and linen and other fabrics, and gives everyone a lot of ways to make money. As long as you work hard, you can always live your life."

  Huo Xi nodded in agreement.

  The two went to some big wells to check again.

  The big wells are built big, and they are all dug in the wide part of the street. The mouth of the well is much wider than the narrow well, and it is as wide as a shoulder pole by visual inspection. There are wheels on it, wrapped with hemp rope, and a brand new wooden barrel is tied to one end of the hemp rope.

   If you don't jump in on purpose, you probably don't have to worry about anything falling into it.

  Looking at the top of the wellhead, there is a pavilion with four thin columns, and a pavilion cover on the top. The outer edge of the wellhead is built with stone bricks for paddles to wash clothes.

"My lady told us to engrave the names of benevolent people on the inner walls and pillars of the pavilion. However, there are too many benevolent people, so we decided to wait until the road is repaired before erecting a stele. For posterity to remember."

   "Very good. Let's do it this way."

  After checking some wells, I went to see the road construction. Huo Xi was very satisfied to see that everyone was still working hard in the winter and spared no effort. After watching for a while, he turned and went back home.

   And Aunt Jun soon learned about it.

   He also specially called Mu Zhan back, and discussed with him how to win over the people in the city.

  Mu Zhan didn't like what Aunt Jun said about paying money to build roads and bridges, or sending people to the construction site to give condolences and visits, giving alms and so on.

   "Mother, I can't afford to do such a trivial matter. The most important thing now is the army and the chieftains in various places. These talents are worth wooing. Some unarmed ordinary people, what role can they play?"

   "Don't underestimate these ordinary people, these are the hearts of the people. Only when the people want you can achieve great things."

  Mu Zhan rubbed his forehead, feeling that he couldn't make sense with his mother.

"Mother, don't bother me with those trivial matters. My father didn't let me go to the army this year. He only asked me to sort out various documents and accounts in the mansion. Those staff members were already doing it, saying that they had other arrangements for me. Let me have a job. I am bored now, how can I care about those trivial things outside."

   Mentioning this matter, Aunt Jun also gritted her molar teeth.

  She obviously felt that since Mu Yan returned to Yunnan, Zhan'er was no longer valued. If Mu Yan wins the hearts of the people and the support of the generals in the army, it will be even more difficult for Zhan'er in the future.

  Mu Zhan was startled when he saw her expression constantly changing.

   "Mother, you'd better not make any moves. Otherwise, if father finds out, he won't even be able to please me."

  When he was young, he knew many things about what his mother and uncle's family did to Mu Yan.

  At that time, he was still young, and he listened to his mother in everything. Although he felt that Mu Yan was blocking his way now, it was only temporary. As long as there is nothing wrong with his father's health, Mu Yan will still stay in Beijing as a hostage.

  As long as he can't return to Dian, Dian is still his.

   "Why are you so timid now!" Aunt Jun frowned, very dissatisfied.

"Mother, it's not that I'm timid. It's that Mu Yan is full-fledged now. If you don't have the strength to make a blow, it's best not to touch him. He has many guards in his hands. With our current manpower, Can't move him yet."

   "How will you know if you don't try. He's in the mansion, so it's not easy for us to attack. Now that he's outside, it's not easy to have an accident."

"Mother! I advise you to stop! I'm very dissatisfied with him standing in front of me, but I know how to plan slowly and don't touch the stone with an egg. If the mother comes hard, it will anger my father at that time, and even I will protect myself." I can't miss you!"

   Flicked his sleeves and walked out.

   "Idiot." Aunt Jun cursed.

  The stone is in the way, either move it out of the way, or go around it, leave it far behind, so that it cannot become a threat. If it keeps blocking the front, not to mention being unable to walk, it will hit your foot.

  The Jun family, Aunt Jun, Mrs. Jun and others are plotting.

  Jun Mingzhang died, although he did not die in Mu Yan's hands, but he also died because of him. Mrs. Jun and his wife lost their beloved son, and wished they could eat Mu Yan alive.

"If that little **** keeps him alive, I will have a short life. Now he has taken Zhan'er's job in the army. His husband and wife are trying to attract people's hearts everywhere. This can't go on like this. If he gets the support of the army, where will he be?" There is still a place for Zhan'er!"

  Only his grandson Mu Zhan inherits the title, and the hereditary title is in his hand. His family is tied to the boat of the Mu family. With the title of the same life as the country, as long as the dynasty does not fall, the Jun family can prosper and prosper.

   "Even if you can't kill him, you have to maim him! The emperor will not let a disabled person become a prince!" Old Mr. Jun's face was grim.
