"The last time she fainted, it was probably Zhu Youcai's fault. Although Xiang's heart disease has not completely recovered, such a torment would not make her faint. Zhu Youcai just wanted to take the opportunity to see Shitou's reaction."

"He wants to use Xiang to hold the stone?"

"Yes, our home is made of copper and iron, and the stone is the best one to break through."

The old lady looked at the official entrance: "If Zhu Youcai sells the house, do you want to buy it?"

"Not buying!"

"Where can Mr. Xiang go if he is released?"

"You can go wherever you like, and it's not a pity to die outside. If she could marry Zhu Youcai in the first place, she would be able to survive."

"I really can't hold myself back. If I had found a place to stay and live a good life, maybe Shitou would still miss her."

"Don't mention her anymore, it's so annoying."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rumble of thunder in the sky, and dark clouds in the distance rushed towards this direction.

"Let's go sit in the shed."

All the tables were moved inside, and soon the workers also ran in.

Just take a break and drink some water.

They greeted Qin Yue warmly, and Team Leader Zheng sat at Qin Yue's table.

"It won't stop for a while. Keep working. Tomorrow, the bluestones from the quarry will be continuously shipped, and it will be paved in more than half a month."

"It should also be done on both sides of the road. It's best to erect the bluestones higher than the ground."

"I think so."

The rain started pouring down, lightning thundered, and the whole village road was deserted, and everyone hid back home.

The shed on Wan'er's side was also full of people. They sold their goods but couldn't leave.

More than half an hour later, the rain stopped. The workers had had enough rest. They rushed out of the shed one by one, talking and laughing, and went to work with their tools.

Team leader Zheng didn't leave: "Ms. Qin, do you want to make sesame seed cakes with meat at home?"

"Want to eat?"

"I'm a little greedy for this. I asked my wife to try it last time, and it was far different from yours."

Qin Yue turned to look at Dong. She immediately understood and took Wang back.

"Okay, will the workers live here?"

"Let's live here. We've set up a shed. It'll be fine in the afternoon. It won't delay anyone's sleep at night."

"Well, take care of yourselves. If you need anything, come to me at home."

In this way, Zheng Bantou's construction team visited Shanshui Village again. Unlike before, the villagers were very enthusiastic about them.

Every household is in good condition, and when it’s lunch time, this household will bring steamed buns, and that household will bring soup.

Qin Yue only asked for a jar of soybean paste as a gift. This was the only thing on the steamed buns, which was more delicious than anything else.

For dinner, Mr. Dong and Ms. Wang baked more than 100 sesame seed cakes and stewed a pot of bacon. There was no fresh meat at home.

However, this bacon is more fragrant. After mincing it, add some green chili foam and it will fill your mouth with oil.

Team leader Zheng called two workers and carried two baskets back.

He knew Shitou was not at home, so he did not enter Qin's house and ate outside with the workers.

Days passed, and half a month passed.

The ground was paved from the official road to the entrance of the village. Qin Yue walked there and took a closer look. It was the kind she wanted.

I couldn't help but praise Team Leader Zheng, he did a really good job.

The road was clean and smooth, wide enough to pass two carriages at the same time. They were quite thoughtful and left drainage ditches on both sides, also made of bluestone.

During this period, as long as she goes out, Dong and Wang will do nothing but follow her!

They all pushed Xiao Tian aside, which made him very unhappy, and even bared his teeth at the two of them.

Hu Hai and his wife looked at the bluestone road and grinned happily. Who doesn't want their village to be good?

Looking at the past and looking at now, without Mrs. Qin, their village would still be a poor village.

Nowadays, whenever Shanshui Village is mentioned, everyone knows that girls from all over the country want to marry here, and matchmakers have almost broken the threshold.

Qin Yue walked slowly and leisurely with her big belly.

When the two of them saw it, they hurriedly stepped forward to say hello: "I'll cost you money again this time."

"You want to spend money, but you don't have that much money."

"Hey, yes."

"This road is built for the village, and it is also used for my workshop. Let's kill two birds with one stone."

"When will the workshop be built?"

"After the new year, spring begins!"

"It's time to expand, there's not enough to sell." "If you move over, the price will increase. This time it will be big, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Hu Hai asked tentatively: "How long is it approximately?"

"Fifty fen for pickled vegetables and [-] fen for soybean paste."

"It's okay, it's not very expensive. Anyway, if you raise the price, we will also raise the price."

Qin Yue glanced at him: "Why don't you imitate them and sell them far away?"

"I won't go. I don't covet them. Don't worry, I'll guard the door of my house. I can do anything in time."

More and more people gathered in the village, all looking at this road. It was really not easy for the workers. It took several people to lift such heavy bluestone. After putting it down, they had to level it and fill in the gaps.

It only takes a day to build a distance of more than ten meters. When it rains, the work has to be stopped.

However, it was Qin Yue's blessing that they were able to get work during this season.

At the end of the month, it was time for the stone to come back.

The road was completely completed. Not only was it paved to the other side of the depression, it was also paved for an extra section, and then it was paved to the other side of the river.

Everyone is quite fresh, strolling back and forth on the bluestone road.

"Oh, this road is really good. It's better than the roads in counties and cities."

"Hey, don't even look at who paid for the repairs."

"Alas, Madam Qin's house is one of a kind. None of the houses in Fucheng can compare with it, let alone this road. It must be carefully designed."

"We can't lose Mrs. Qin's face by going back and rebuilding the courtyard wall and gate. Don't make people laugh."

"That's it, we'll do it after the rainy season. Anyone who doesn't do it is a puppy."

Say something to this, say something to that, and as soon as Qin Yue came out of the gate, everyone shut up.

"Hello, Madam Qin!"

"Well, you are also good!"

This time, she didn't let Dong and the others follow her, saying she would just walk on the village road and not go anywhere else.

Xiaotian and his wife followed her with their children, and came to the depression to take a look. The ground that had been raining was still very flat, with no signs of subsidence.

There were some footprints, presumably left by naughty children when they came over to play.

She walked slowly from the end of the village, and for some reason the villagers all followed her, maybe to protect her.

When she came to the entrance of the official road, she saw that the bluestone and the ground of the official road were flat, and she nodded with satisfaction.

As early as the moment the road was paved, Yang Shu stood at the intersection and looked towards the village for a long time.

While he was sitting under the pergola, sighing alone, Qin Yue arrived, and when he saw her, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.

Once, I wanted to plot against Qin, but now, let alone harming her, I dare not even see her.

Qin Yue naturally didn't look at him. The reason why she came to Guandao was firstly to see the road and secondly to pick up a certain man.

It's been a month, and even though I'm angry, I still miss him a little bit.

Looking south from a distance, the villagers followed her example. Qin Yue turned to look at them, and the villagers all laughed.

"Go back, I'm here to pick up my man."

"You are alone and like this, we want to protect you."

"No, nothing will happen at home."

The villagers were sent away by Qin Yue. She stood there alone with seven loyal dogs, which was really eye-catching.

There were no pedestrians on the road, and there were very few horse-drawn carriages.

While waiting, Yang Shaohua came over.

He hesitated, but still mustered up the courage to say:

"Ms. Qin, are you okay?"

Qin Yue ignored him and continued to look south.

"I want to tell you that Qingting is engaged!"

Qin Yue turned around and frowned:
"She's still young."

"This is a good marriage. It matches my Yang family. The man is the son of a scholar. He is also studying and preparing to take the boy student examination."

Qingting is thirteen, that man must have been fifteen or sixteen. I'm afraid he didn't pass the exam this year. He will take the exam again in three years.

She didn't hum, and Yang Shaohua continued:

"I just built a house here, and I also need to support Qingyun's education. Money is tight. Can you think of Qingting's dowry?"

"cannot!"

Yang Shaohua was a little angry: "You can build roads in the village, but you can't prepare some dowry for your own daughter?"
