A good husband and fortune

This year, the heavens have been especially kind to people. Since the heavy snowfall in Dongyue ended, although the weather has been cold, there has been no sign of snow falling.

On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the road construction project that lasted three and a half months was finally completed. During this period, a total of nearly 3 taels of silver was spent, and the nearly [-]-mile stone road from Linjiagou to Qingshui Town was finally completed.

From then on, when the villagers of Linjiagou go to Qingshui Town, they no longer need to be covered in ashes on sunny days and muddy on rainy days, and they no longer have to worry about the problem that two ox carts will meet and they will not go wrong.

The stone road is wide enough to accommodate two carriages. On both sides of the road, a one-meter-wide canal has been dug, and there are guardrails made of firebricks and mortar on the side. The road looks spacious and bright.

On the day when the project was completely completed, Lizheng sent someone to pick Lin Zhi up early, and all the villagers in Linjiagou went to the intersection spontaneously. To celebrate, Lizheng held a ribbon-cutting ceremony, and the person who cut the scissors was Lin Zhi .

The completion of this road not only means that it will be convenient for everyone to travel in the future, but also means that this road will bring endless wealth to Linjiagou.

At the place where the stone road meets the stone road in Qingshui Town, Li is arranging for someone to erect a stone tablet next to it, and words have been engraved on it.

It is called Zhichuan Road.

This road is named after Shen Yanchuan and Lin Zhi. The purpose of Lizheng doing this is to remind everyone that the completion of this road in Linjiagou is all due to the selfless dedication of Lin Zhi and Shen Yanchuan. And to help with everything, and hope that future generations can remember this kindness.

The villagers of Linjiagou stood on the solid stone road, and their gratitude to Lin Zhi was even greater.

Lizheng seemed to attach great importance to the matter of road construction. On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Lizheng asked the people in the village to pay half a liang of silver per household, and held a banquet for a hundred families at the ancestral hall of the village, inviting Linzhi's family of three to come. Everyone in the village must participate in the meal.

The cold winter couldn't stop everyone's enthusiasm, and for each family to pay half a tael of silver, except for the three families who had a feud with Lin Zhi, no one else had any objections.

The three families said that Lin Zhi didn't help them a little, so they didn't pay, so naturally they didn't come to this hundred families' thank you banquet.

When everyone was present, Lizheng stood up suddenly, found a stool, stood up and said.

"Before everyone moves their chopsticks, I would like to say a few words. The road construction in Linjiagou is due to the blessings of Lin Zhi and Yan Chuan. Everyone’s help, I think everyone knows it.”

"This winter, you can wear warm clothes without worrying about taxes, have enough food, and have extra money to go to the New Year. This is all thanks to Xiaozhi. Xiaozhi is the benefactor of Linjiagou."

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. These days, everyone is going to the town to do New Year's goods. I don't need to say more about how convenient this road is after it is repaired. I hold this thank-you banquet today, and I hope that all the villagers can remember Let’s face it, everything you enjoy now depends on who got it, you must not forget your roots, you must maintain your original intentions, and you must always be grateful.”

"Everyone is gathered here today, so let's say thank you to Xiaozhi Yanchuan and Uncle Li's family!"

After Li Zheng finished speaking, he just wanted to formally thank Lin Zhi grandly. All the villagers present were grateful to Lin Zhi from the bottom of their hearts. After listening to Li Zheng's words, they all stood up and bowed to Lin Zhi Shen Yanchuan thank.

"Thank you!"

Lin Zhi was extremely embarrassed by such a big battle, but at the same time he was a little moved.

"Everyone, don't be so polite. I build roads for myself. I'm not that selfless. We all belong to the same village. It's what I should do to lead everyone to get rich together." Although a bit embarrassed, Lin Zhi still stood up and expressed his gratitude. "I hope that under my leadership, everyone's life will get better and better."

"Okay, let's eat quickly." It was freezing cold, and Shen Yanchuan didn't want to say any polite words, so he asked everyone to eat quickly.

The weather was cold, and everyone wanted to eat something to warm up their bodies. As soon as Shen Yanchuan finished speaking, everyone sat down and began to move their chopsticks.

The whole village was almost on the move. Everyone sat and ate together, talking and laughing, and gradually snowflakes floated in the sky.

Seeing that it was snowing, the child put down his chopsticks, stood up and yelled.

"Snowing!"

Lin Zhi was wearing a big rabbit fur cloak, and the snow had just started to fall, and there were small hail in it. He leaned against Shen Yanchuan, and was directing the men to tear off and tie the tarpaulin to keep out the snow. .

"God is kind to people. It only started snowing after the road was repaired."

"Because you are so kind, God was moved." Shen Yanchuan tightened the rabbit fur around Lin Zhi's neck and said, "Let's go buy new year's goods tomorrow, this is our first year together, It must be more solemn."

"Okay, by the way, I will also buy new clothes for the Chinese New Year for the servants."

"What you say is what you say." Lin Zhi is in charge of the family's money, and Shen Yanchuan relies on Lin Zhi for everything, "Everything is up to you to decide."

"En." Lin Zhi nodded vigorously, "Shen Yanchuan, I really like snow."

"I'll accompany you to see the snow after dinner."

"it is good."
