In the end, Lin Su decided that everyone's accommodation cost would be one or two dollars a day.
That is one thousand copper plates. In addition to the two taels of silver promised by Zhu Haiyun, it is ninety taels of silver in one month.
Lu Zicheng was very satisfied with the price, and slowly nodded, said.
"The remaining ten taels, Mrs. Ling doesn't have to look for it. Every afternoon, I will cook some mung bean soup for the big guy to cool down the heat."
The time to repair Hetao happens to be the hottest time.
Should pay attention, still have to pay attention to one point.
Lin Su nodded when he heard the words, and happily took the two ingots, handed them to Lian Qi, and said.
"Since the three adults trust the little women so well, the little women are naturally obliged. Three rest assured, the little women will take good care of the brothers."
Through this road repair, Zhu Haiyun and Lu Zicheng got to know Lin Su. Occasionally they would come over and see the soldiers eating.
One meat and one vegetarian soup, the dishes taste good.
It is definitely a conscience inn.
When the three came just in time for lunch, Lin Su naturally wouldn't let them go. He ordered Ding Guangyu to go down and let the kitchen cook two more dishes and eat them in the suite.
The young man led the order to go out with Lian Qi, Lin Su took the teapot and refilled the three of them with tea, and said again.
"I don't know when will the loop repair start?"
Zhu Haiyun put down the tea cup, took a deep breath and looked at Lin Su, said.
"Naturally, the sooner the better. Seeing that the rainy season is coming, the loops in Shanghe Village and Xiahe Village are not strong, and the crops are washed away every year. Therefore, the official plans to have everyone in place tomorrow afternoon, and then... "
Lin Su understood what they meant, and the road builders didn't move, so they would go there early tomorrow morning. The rest will be there in the afternoon, and work will begin the next day.
In fact, as long as there are enough people and enough materials, repairing the loop is a matter of minutes.
Lin Su held the teacup, looked at them three, said.
"Mr. Liu Ba and they are very reliable, and the little lady saw it when they were building roads. This time, there will be no problem in repairing the loop. The three adults don't worry."
Lu Zicheng sighed heavily, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said.
"That's what I said, but... The Sixth Prince just returned to Beijing, and none of us have seen him. I don't know what his temper is."
"Tenough?" Lin Su puzzled.
What does this thing have to do with temper.
No, wait.
The six princes just returned to Beijing. Haven't they seen any of them
Shouldn't it, Zhu Haiyun and Ma Wei couldn't see that they were justified, they had been sent abroad and had insufficient official posts.
But Lu Zicheng... The general of Liaodong, it is said that he is still a first-grade military officer, can't you not see it.
Seeing that Lin Su didn't understand, Lu Zi shrugged and said helplessly.
"The sixth prince and the seventh prince are the brothers of the same compatriots. This project is strongly advocated by the seventh prince. In the final analysis, it is also the first time the seventh prince and the prince are facing each other. So many things are not us..."
Lin Su understood when he heard this.
If something went wrong in the project and was caught by the Sixth Prince, none of the three people in front of him would be able to eat.
Thinking of this, looking at the three of them comfortingly said.
"The three adults don't have to panic, there will always be a solution to this kind of thing. What's more, as long as you have enough materials and don't slack in repairing the loop, you will be fine."
Lu Zicheng shook his head after hearing this, Zhu Haiyun sighed heavily, said.
"Mrs. Ling, some things are not as simple as you think! Since it is a partisan dispute, what is cultivated will cause damage. We are in the light, and they are in the dark. It is impossible to guard against.
Defense. "
Uh…
Lin Su's lips twitched fiercely, and he understood what they meant.
Well, it turned out that she is too simple and thinks things are not perfect.
For the first time on the front, naturally the other party would not stand by and watch the Hetao peacefully repaired.
If that's the case, her inn... isn't safe either.
Just thinking about it, Ding Guangyu brought the food up. When Lu Zicheng said to them.
"Sister-in-law, these eggplants and cold dishes are for Tim, and the remaining three ate them with the brothers downstairs. The bones are good today, and Sixi's daughter-in-law has braised them. They are all meat."
"Okay, sit down and eat together." Lin Su responded with a smile.
Soy sauce bones, fried eggplant, stewed beans with five**, mixed cold vegetables, garlic greens.
The food is huge, more than enough for five people.
Especially the sauce bones, which are small stick bones with thick meat and lots of muscles.
It is not the first time that Lu Zicheng and Zhu Haiyun have come to have a meal. They all know that the craftsmanship of the inn is good, so they picked up the chopsticks and didn't have any polite dishes.
Seeing that the two bosses were picking up vegetables, Ma Wei became restrained, gnawed a bone, and said hurriedly.
"It smells good, it tastes good, it's salty and mild."
Lin Su chuckled when he heard the words, and looked at Ma Wei said politely.
"If Master Ma likes it, I will bring you some back later, there should be more."
"No need, just eat a few more." Ma Wei was still heavy, and did not do the shameful behavior of eating and taking.
After lunch, Lin Su and Ding Guangyu left.
It is inconvenient for them to stay here because they want to tell Liu Ba a serious matter.
Going down to the first floor, Da Nianzi was tidying up the tables and chairs. As for Ergui and Sanniu, they were both left in the backyard by Hongyun and did not come to the front.
Lin Su had already mentioned that the senior should go to the school to study, but the young man did not agree, and said that he would wait until the beginning of the spring next year.
Originally, Lin Su didn't want the older man to work, but the little guy insisted that she couldn't dispel his enthusiasm, so she simply agreed.
Beckoning to the big year, the little guy put the stool on the table, ran over quickly, and said.
"Aunt Lin, what's the matter?"
"It's okay, let you go out with me, let's walk through the official road that has been repaired."
"Oh, good." The big year nodded with a smile, and agreed.
The two came out of the inn together, walking on the cleaned official road, looking at the wide road ahead, and the poplar saplings that had just been planted on both sides, imagining that these saplings would grow into towering trees in a few years.
At that time, this road will be perfect.
The poplar saplings were later added by Lin Su. The purpose is to prevent villagers from slicing waste, and then planing to the official road.
The roads that were finally built, can't be taken up by them.
Planting trees is also good. When the summer is hot, there are trees on both sides, and the shade of the trees can be cooler.
The two had walked a distance of almost three hundred meters. The new year looked up at Lin Su and said.
"Aunt Lin, I want to worship Mr. Lianqi as the master, okay?"
"Apprentice? What do you study?"
"Learn kung fu." The senior said firmly.
Lin Su frowned upon seeing this, looked at him in disbelief, and said.
"Aren't you studying?"
"I..." The young man scratched his head and looked at Lin Su calmly, "Aunt Lin, I... I am slow in literacy and I am interested in kung fu."
Lin Su finally understood why he would refuse to go to the academy.
Put a hand on his shoulder, said.
"Alright, just do it if you want. But you can't practice Kung Fu
To be a waste of words, at least you have to know your name and learn to write letters. "
"I see, Aunt Lin."
The Bai family has a total of two acres of land, but it is enough for a few people in their family. The Bai family’s house was bought by Ding Guangyu. Since he is already working here, he must have a nest of his own.
Lin Su has no objection to this point.
There must be a frustration for begging. He has never bought a real estate since he married his wife.
Now there is a good bargain place, and it is understandable to buy it.
Zhang Jing used her dowry to buy another three acres of land. As for the chickens and ducks of the Bai family, ten were left for Zhang Jing, and the other Lin Su were all kept in the backyard of the inn.
The money was temporarily placed in Lin Su's hands.
Oh, right.
"Child, do you three brothers and sisters have big names?"
Facing Lin Su's question, Da Nianzi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head dumbly and said.
"My name is Bai Danian, my younger brother is Bai Ergui, my younger sister..."
"Okay, you don't need to say, your sister is called Sanniu Bai, right?"
"Ok."
Lin Su sighed silently when he saw him nodding.
The name acquisition is really random.
"Do you want to change your name?"
"Change your name?" Da Nianzi was at a loss.
Lin Su thought about it for a while and said.
"I don't know what your family's genealogy looks like, but Shui Yangren, the three of your brothers and sisters are called Baihao, Bailuo, and Baiqin, how about it? I think it's better than Bai Danian and Ergui."
"Bai Hao? Bai Lao? Bai Qin?" The young man murmured softly.
"You still have nearly twenty taels of silver with me. I want to deposit it in a bank for you. But this Bai Danian's name is a bit dirty, so..."
The little guy understood Lin Su's meaning, nodded hurriedly, and said.
"Aunt Lin, I like the name Baichao, let's change the name, change it!"
Lin Su smiled and narrowed his eyes when he saw him like this. Reached out and put the person in his arms, and said again.
"Okay, it happens that the county magistrate is in our inn. I will tell him in a while and go back and change it on the jade disc and name stickers."
"Well, thank Aunt Lin." Danian... Oh, no, it's Bai Hao. Baichao solemnly held his fists in salute, especially respectful.
Lin Su helped him up and continued while walking.
"In another month, your mother should burn for a hundred days. Then I will take you to the town, save the silver, and give them the couple choose something to burn."
"Okay, thanks Aunt Lin." Bai Hao thanked again, stopped, and looked at Lin Su again, "If it weren't for Aunt Lin, my brother and sister would not have shelter from the wind and rain. Aunt Lin, we really thank you."
Thank you for helping my mother find a doctor.
Thank you for helping with the funeral.
Thank you for hosting the three brothers and sisters.
thank you…
Lin Su looked at the child, waved his hand carelessly, and said.
"Fool, thank you for anything. Auntie will be your relative in the future, please mention anything you want."
Bai Hao reddened his eyes and threw himself into Lin Su's arms, holding him tightly.
For so many days, he has been tensed. After Ding Guangyu and his wife moved out, their three brothers lived in Ding Guangyu's room.
He didn't sleep well every night, taking care of his younger brother and younger sister who often cried in his sleep.
After all, he himself is only nine years old, still a child!
Lin Su felt distressed, so he patted his back, once, his face was full of affection.
Looking at the green crops and feeling the little guy in his arms, his shoulders twitched and he sighed...
