MTL - The Reborn Lady is Farming-Chapter 1365 Extraordinary Hirofumi (4)
Mu Shi has already started his career and moved back to Xingzhou with his wife from Taiyuan. Mu Bosi is still in the army and not by their side.
Now the two of them have only their eldest grandson, Mu Feng.
And the time that Mu Feng can accompany them is also limited, because he is coming back to study for the exam next year, which shows how much the couple want to see their children.
So when he received the letter from his son, Mu Shi's first feeling was that he was not happy.
But after I was unhappy, I understood it, and I just let it go with a slight sigh.
The older Mu Shi gets, the softer his heart becomes, and he likes to recall the events of his childhood more and more. He naturally knows that the relationship between him and Bo Wen is not like an ordinary father and son.
From the age of five to fifteen, the days he saw him a year were less than a month, let alone teach him that it was normal for a father and son to have an unfamiliar relationship.
Except for Bosi and Kejia, he did not fulfill his father's responsibilities to Yangling and Bowen, not to mention the work...
Mu Shi sighed slightly. It was him ten years ago. If there was a war at the border, he would also choose to put aside his family affairs to deal with state affairs, so it was no wonder that Bo Wen was there.
Shu Wanniang brought tea and was trying to persuade her husband. Seeing him, she thought about it and couldn't help but smile, "I thought you were going to complain about him at home for a few more days."
Mu Shi pouted and said, "Am I such an unreasonable person?"
Shu Wanniang smiled without saying a word, and said, "A Ling wrote to me, saying that this time she is going to come back with her son-in-law, especially to celebrate your birthday."
Mu Shi's face was full of worry immediately, "A-Ling is too fun, she runs around all over the world even at her age, and her son-in-law also makes trouble with her, and she is not afraid of her daughters-in-law resenting her in the future."
Married a daughter-in-law to enter the house, as a mother-in-law, she has to teach for a period of time, and she also needs her help in many things, but since the children got married, A Ling has left her hands behind, no matter whether they are doing well or not, she Don't ask at all.
Even Mu Shi, his biological father, couldn't see it, and said, "If I hadn't known that those children were really born by Ah Ling, I would have thought they were all picked up by her on the street, and I wouldn't feel sorry for the children."
"Maybe the children will be happy that they don't care about anything. Besides, I think A Ling is right. Children have their own way to go, and they also have their own life to live. Now that the children have grown up, they should let them go. They deal with the difficulties and the glory they face, and they have their own lives to live."
Mu Shi was embarrassed, looked at his wife with a glowing face, and asked cautiously: "Wan Niang, do you want to play from all over the world like A Ling?"
Shu Wanniang shook her head and said with a smile, "It's too tiring to go out, so I just like to stay at home and go to the farm from time to time to take a look at the scenery."
Mu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, they were old bones, and he was really afraid that his wife would also have this strange hobby.
Mu Yangling and Qi Haoran slowly took a dozen guards to Xingzhou Mansion. Because the road was blocked by heavy snow, the road was not easy to walk, but they walked slowly. Officials' relief efforts, etc., a hard journey just made them feel comfortable.
Mu Bowen and officials from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household rushed to Beidi to preside over the construction of relief houses. He has already figured out how to make better use of resources for heating, and has designed several designs with other craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry. Sample heating facilities.
But the situation is different from place to place, and some things need to be slightly modified.
Mu Bowen has stayed in Xingzhou Mansion, Hanzhong Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion, so the design drawings for their situation have been sent, but other places still need him and the officials of the Ministry of Industry to inspect on the spot.
At the same time, the Ministry of Industry also dispatched other officials and craftsmen to respond to the snow disaster.
It was only the end of October, and their response speed was considered fast. The local officials knew that the imperial court took this seriously, and they did not dare to neglect them. They arranged the disaster victims one after another.
The house designed by Mu Bowen is still a group of houses. At this time, it is difficult to build a house. If there is a wealthy family who is willing to sell the house, the court will pay for it, and then open the wall inside, and build a large kang along one side of the wall, while the inside of the kang is Two mechanisms were made, one to let the smoke out of the house, and the other to fill the wall with water.
When the kang is burned, the water is still being boiled, which ensures that everyone has hot water at all times, and also saves costs, and the hot water that has been burned will flow around the copper pipes in the house, making the temperature in the house rise. Then it flows into the greenhouse they designed behind the house.
That is a greenhouse designed to grow vegetables.
There are a lot of greenhouses like this in Beidi now, because there are only frozen cabbage in winter in the north. Since his sister publicized the way of planting in greenhouses, many people like to build greenhouses in winter. Rich people are for food, while ordinary people are In order to make money.
It can be said that Mu Bowen is now using these consumed resources as much as possible.
As a water conservancy expert, he knows the disadvantages of destroying nature, so he said to the local officials who followed: "After the spring, we must organize the people to go up the mountain to plant trees. The children and grandchildren will be left in ruins."
He sighed: "Moreover, we are occupying the living space of the beasts in the mountains and forests. I am worried that if this cold current continues, the beasts will become enemies of humans."
The prefect who came to receive the reception immediately said to several county magistrates: "Write down this matter, take out a few greenhouses and start cultivating saplings now. After the spring, people will go up to the mountains to plant trees. Next year, the time for closing the mountains to cultivate forests will increase by ten days, so that the mountains and forests can recuperate. "
Several county magistrates responded quickly, and the prefect looked at Mu Bowen eagerly and asked: "Mr. Mu, when can we start construction? There are still many people who are placed in the post office, but the warmth there is to keep warm. The facilities are not good, the space is limited, the weather is getting colder and colder, and I don’t know if they can stand it.”
"Yes, yes, there are also seventy-eight people behind our county office. Although there are winter clothes issued by the imperial court and quilts donated by a few great people, it is still cold to the bones to sleep at night. When you wake up one day and push the door open, you won't be able to wake anyone up."
Mu Bowen looked at the officials from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households.
The official of the Ministry of Household said with a stern face: "The money needed for the construction has been allocated, we can go directly to the bank to get it."
The official of the Ministry of Industry immediately said: "We can immediately purchase the required materials and start construction tomorrow."
As soon as these words came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Bowen wore thick cotton-padded clothes to command the field, and sometimes he had to run from various counties to deal with various emergencies. When the prefect saw this, he couldn't help but remind him to pay attention to rest and safety, and said carefully: "Mr. Mu, It's not far from Xingzhou Mansion, it's only seven or eight days' journey away, it is said that General Mu's birthday will be ten days later, why don't you take time to go back and have a look?"
Mu Bowen was taken aback and asked, "What date is it today?"
Lord Prefect knew at a glance that he had forgotten the time, and hurriedly said: "It's twenty-seven today."
