Liu used a wooden tray to carry food and walked into a temporary rescue wooden shed. The innermost position was a wooden bed with a scholar-like person lying on the bed. Seeing Liu coming in, he panted slightly and sat down. stand up.

That scholar is not someone else, it is Su Mozhi who had a relationship with Shen Ling. He has defected to the rebels since last fall, because the rebels are in short supply on Meishan side, and he is not taken seriously, so in winter When I got wind chill, it didn’t get better after so many days.

Liu placed two large bowls of thick porridge made from brown rice and several kinds of beans, and two thick noodle cakes in front of him. In addition to this, there was a plate of stir-fried wild vegetables and scrambled eggs.

Su Mozhi was slightly surprised, "Why are there more bowls of scrambled eggs today?"

Since the rebels came to Bezhuang, the food has improved a lot, but scrambled eggs have never been.

Liu said, "I used the money I secretly hid and asked for such a dish from an acquaintance in the kitchen. You have been sick for so many days, and you should make up for it."

After Liu arrived in Biezhuang, a maid came to consider it with the female relatives. That maid was Qiu He, who had washed her clothes in the town before, and Qiu He still recognized the Liu family. Remembering her previous work, she was assigned to the washing room. The pulp washing room is a little harder, but I can get 700 dollars a month.

Seven hundred dollars may not seem like a lot, but Biezhuang will take care of the board and lodging for a family of three. If so, they can’t spend much money each month, enough for a family of three for several months.

With surplus money on hand, Liu thought about secretly taking out some of his previous savings to make up for his husband. It happened that she had a few women who knew each other in the rebel army, and one of them was assigned to the kitchen because she cooked better. Liu gave out a few pennies and asked her to fry this extra dish.

After the two of them finished the porridge and rice with two dishes, Liu put the bowl and chopsticks on the wooden plate and handed it to the kitchen.

After coming out of the kitchen, Liu Shishun went to the school. She and Su Mozhi's son just turned five years old this year, and she has been sent to the school. Liu secretly took a look outside, and found that his son was sitting on the rightmost position, using a wooden pen to write something seriously on the sand table, and he was relieved.

In the evening, a vigorous bell rang outside the school.

With the sound of the bell, hundreds of students walked out one after another, and Su Mozhi's only son Su Luo hopped towards his wooden hut.

Ever since Biezhuang received more than a thousand rebels, Shen Ling has mobilized strong labor among them to build houses along the periphery of the wall. In this way, the rebels have something to do, and they don’t have time to think about all these miscellaneous things.

More than a thousand rebels removed their relatives and injuries, leaving three to four hundred strong men. Shen Ling ordered them to build some simple houses near the periphery and live there temporarily, and then slowly build a courtyard with more people.

It’s just that it takes too much time to build the courtyard, so now the rebels still live in such simple wooden huts.

When Su Luo returned to his wooden shed, Su Mozhi's spirit was better than the previous few days, and he was able to sit up and test Su Luo's homework.

A quarter of an hour later, Liu also returned from the pulp washing room. She took her son to the kitchen and queued up to receive dinner for a family of three.

Dinner is still a bowl of thick brown rice and bean porridge boiled per person, three adult fist-sized sweet potatoes, and a plate of beef jerky.

The jerky was made from the leftover beef from Biezhuang's later eating. Seeing that summer is approaching, the kitchen is afraid that the jerky will be spoiled, so they took it out as a dish and distributed it to everyone.

A plate of beef jerky was not much, and Liu was reluctant to eat it, so he gave it to his husband and son.

Su Luo took a bite, soft and tender, completely different from the jerky he had eaten before. He couldn't help but cried out that it was delicious.

Liu said: "I heard the people in the kitchen say that in winter, I don't know where to get a lot of beef from the village, because it can't finish it for a while and it's made into jerky. If we get to the village earlier, it will be fine."

Su Mozhi gave a light cough: "The lady said carefully, don't mention this in front of them in the future." What he said was naturally the rebels.

Liu didn't care, "My husband is worried. Now many people outside are saying that if you meet Xuannv earlier, you don't have to squeeze in that cave in the winter last year."

Since Shen Ling cast the magic of the immortal family to restrain the rebels, those rebels who had seen Shen Ling cast the spells privately called her a mysterious girl. Although this name is stained with divine meaning, it helps to increase Shen Ling's prestige. Therefore, after Shen Ling learned of this, he acquiesced to their name.

When a family of three had dinner, Shen Ling was also eating.

There were six dishes and one soup on the table of Huanghuali. Shen Ling was sitting in the main seat. Yang Bingwen and the square-faced man sat next to her. Both of them discussed with her in the evening, and she stayed for dinner together.

These two people were a little embarrassed at first, and the latter was even more afraid of Shen Ling. But Shen Ling invited them again and again so that everyone could sit down and discuss things together. For the people at the bottom, Shen Ling is willing to keep a distance from them to increase his prestige. But for these higher-ranking management levels, Shen Ling is willing to get closer to them, so that when discussing matters in the future, he can also get some useful suggestions from them.

The two of them stayed behind Shen Ling, and finally stayed.

As soon as they sat down, Shen Ling ordered the maids to serve food.

During the dinner, Yang Bingwen was more particular, but the square-faced man, Li Gui, the leader of the rebel army, did not have so much scruples. After gradually relaxing at the dinner table, he asked Shen Ling for advice while eating.

Shen Ling answered his questions distractedly while eating. She meant that more courtyards could be built around the walls, and another wall would be built around the courtyards in the future to protect the courtyards. The Biezhuang inside the surrounding area also has an extra layer of protection.

Yang Bingwen listened to their questions and answers, and finally couldn't help but interject: "Owner, since you are building a quadrangle courtyard outside, why not build a school?" Yang Bingwen's purpose is to persuade Shen Ling to recruit another gentleman, a student. More and more, he can't take care of it. Now that he heard the two talking about the courtyard outside, he couldn't help but interject.

Shen Ling nodded and said, "This is a good suggestion. You can build a few more schools so that students can come to classes separately. Just where do you find your husband?"

Yang Bingwen said: "This is not difficult. When I was in class, I found that a student named Su Luo seemed to be enlightened. Whether it was literacy or endorsement, he learned faster than other students. I asked him privately, it turned out that his father He was born in a private school. Why didn't the owner invite him?"

When Yang Bingwen reminded him, Li Gui immediately remembered, "By the way, we did have such a person in the rebel army. Last winter, a trustee rushed to my place, and I didn't see him because I was recovering from an injury. I heard that he got it later. I don’t know if the wind is getting better."

When Li Gui mentioned the word wind and cold, Shen Ling's heart moved, and suddenly felt that he had to invite several doctors back at the same time as he invited her husband. As the number of people in the village increases, at least two doctors are required.

Shen Ling asked Li Gui that there were talents in the rebel army. However, although she asked such a sentence, she did not hold out much hope. After all, the conditions of the rebels were simple and it was normal to not be accompanied by doctors and doctors.

However, Li Gui said: "Yes. Guo Langzhong's medical skills are quite good, my injury is his optimistic, and his two apprentices are so good."

Guo Langzhong is a famous doctor in their hometown. Because of the drought, he took his wife and children and two apprentices to join the rebel army.

When Li Gui found Guo Langzhong, he was sorting out the dried medicinal materials. Before the rebels lived in the cave and it was inconvenient to get in and out, Guo Langzhong only went out a few times to gather some medicinal materials. Now that I have come to Biezhuang, it coincides with the spring of the grass and trees. Guo Langzhong took two apprentices to the mountains to gather medicine and found a lot of commonly used medicinal materials.

Li Gui told him his future purpose and let him cure Su Mozhi's typhoid fever as soon as possible.

Guo Langzhong replied very readily, “The reason why his typhoid fever has been delayed for so long is because of the lack of medicinal materials. Now I have picked a lot of medicinal materials, and as long as I drink the medicine on time, I can fully heal within half a month."

But maybe it was because of better meals and good mental state. After taking the medicine for six or seven days, Su Mozhi felt that his cold and cold had healed.

That morning, Liu and Su Luo went to work and went to school, but he was left alone in the wooden shed. He put on an old coat and walked out of the house slowly.

As soon as I left the house, I saw three or four hundred strong men not far away building houses under the leadership of Li Gui. More than 20 square yards had been built near the wall. There are two main rooms on the north side of each yard, two wing rooms on the east and west side, and an inverted seat on the south side for sundries.

Su Mozhi glanced around, secretly admiring the layout of the courtyard, and walking a few steps to the side, you can see the periphery of the courtyard, two hundred people wearing all-colored jackets are led by twenty small head collars. Practice spearmanship. They were neatly dressed and uniform, and they had much better discipline than the officers and soldiers and the rebels he had seen.

Looking around, the tenants are busy weeding and irrigating the fields in the distance, a busy scene.

When Su Mozhi was staring at the distant scenery in a trance, several helpers in the kitchen walked over with a smile. They were all family members of the rebel army. After they arrived at Biezhuang, they were assigned to the kitchen because of their cooking skills.

They were told by the steward of the kitchen to pick wild vegetables in the fields. Now when they return, the baskets they carry are full of wild vegetables.

With smiles on their faces, they greeted Su Mozhi if they had a good relationship with Liu, and then walked towards the kitchen. There are more and more people eating in Biezhuang, so it's natural that they don't want to delay time.

Su Mozhi looked at the smiles on their faces, and couldn't help but think that when they were living in Meishan before, they would sigh for lack of clothing and food most of the time. Nowadays, he is always filled with contented smiles, completely different from the sadness of the past.

Su Mozhi had a decision in his heart.
