"It turns out to be cement from Goryeo. Master, what is it used for?" An Er asked Shangguan Feiyun again.
"An Er, I feel that I have a lot of questions to ask you. Do you want me to send you back to the Dark Guard Camp to study again?" Shangguan Feiyun shot a flying knife, wishing he could kill this nagging An Er into five pieces.
An Er shuddered when Shangguan Feiyun looked at him. How could he forget that his master didn't like people who talked too much?
"I'm sorry! I was wrong. Please punish me, master." An Er knelt down quickly and asked Shangguan Feiyun for punishment.
"Forget it this time, but if it happens again, I will make you go back to the Dark Guard Camp to be reshaped." Shangguan Feiyun said very seriously.
"Yes, master." An Er breathed a sigh of relief, and the other secret guards also breathed a sigh of relief. They carefully moved the cement onto the ox cart and pulled it back to Qingshan Village.
Li Yun didn't know what happened in the cave. She was measuring the area near the foot of Daqing Mountain.
She planned to build a large pool here. It was not only close to her home, but most importantly, it was convenient for her to pump water from her home. She didn't want the villagers to see the pump.
Shangguan Feiyun quickly brought back the cement, and Li Yun asked someone to find Lu Shao.
The academy is now almost built and will be completed in a few days. Ma Youcai has already helped find many people for it.
When Lu Shao came over, Shangguan Feiyun pulled a lot of sand down from his yard.
There are quite a few stones on the mountain. Li Yun asked the village chief to tell the villagers yesterday that one pound of stones costs five cents. If the villagers want to make money, they can go to the outskirts of Daqing Mountain to pick them up. They are not allowed to go into the deep mountains, as they will be responsible for any accidents.
Today, many villagers got up early in the morning and went to pick up stones. They all listened to the village chief and did not go into the mountains. Only a few people who were reckless went into the mountains.
While Li Yun was explaining how to use cement, the villagers who went to pick up stones came down the mountain one after another with the stones. Li Yun asked Manager Cui to weigh the stones for the villagers and pay them with silver.
The villagers held the copper coins and smiles appeared on their faces.
Among these villagers, the village chief and Aunt Hong's family were also there. Both families had made a lot of money, and they all happily thanked Li Yun.
After Li Yun demonstrated it personally, Lu Shao mastered the key points and started building the pool with the members of the construction team.
On the day of Qiqiao Festival, Li Yun prepared a sumptuous lunch at home, and then took his family to the county town to watch the lanterns.
When I arrived at the county town, I went to find my elder brother Ma Youcai.
Ma Youcai settled them down and after dinner, Dingxiang took everyone to see the lanterns.
The county town is particularly lively today. The streets are decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, and all kinds of goods are displayed on both sides. Vendors are shouting constantly.
The group looked around and bought anything they liked.
They bought a lot of things along the way, most of which were bought by Dabao and his two siblings for their friends in the village.
This time Chen Mei didn't come, and neither did Chen Mo and his wife. They stayed at home with Chen Mei.
Ouyang Mingxuan and Cheng Shan found it boring and did not follow.
"Mom, there is a riddle game over there. The winner can get a lantern. Shall we go over and take a look?" Dabao said to Li Yun, pointing to a place not far ahead.
“Okay, let’s go over and guess the riddles.
"An Er, you're responsible for Da Bao's safety, An San, you're responsible for Er Bao's safety." She had read many novels and watched many TV dramas, which mentioned that large-scale activities such as guessing riddles and performing acrobatics would often attract many human traffickers to seize children, so she had to keep a close eye on Da Bao and the others.
"Yes, master." An Er and An San replied.
An Er held Da Bao's hand, and An San held Er Bao.
Li Yun picked up Xiaohua and Shangguan Feiyun picked up Sanbao and walked towards the lantern riddle guessing area.
Xiaohua refused to be held by Shangguan Feiyun, so Li Yun had to hold her.
When we arrived at the lantern riddle guessing area, there were already quite a few men and women gathered there, all of them thinking seriously about the answers.
"Master, Madam, Young Master and Young Miss, would you like to have a try? If you guess correctly, you can win a lantern. If you guess the last question, you can get a piece of Hui ink." When the lantern owner saw Li Yun's family, he felt that their family was not simple, so he invited them.
"Oh, how many questions are there in total?" Li Yun was also interested in ancient riddles. Besides, she saw Dabao's eyes light up when he heard the word Hui ink, so she knew he liked Hui ink.
Erbao and Sanbao also looked at the lanterns without blinking.
"Madam, there are ten questions in total." The boss told Li Yun and the others the rules.
Li Yun led his family in to look at the riddles.
Guess the name of a Chinese herbal medicine using “two horizontal lines and one vertical line”.
Li Yun looked at the riddle on the lantern. This one was simple, he had learned it in his previous life.
Li Yun saw Dabao thinking seriously, so he asked Dabao.
"Dabao, have you figured out what it is?"
"Mom, this is so difficult." Dabao said embarrassedly, touching his head.
"Dabao, the answer is among the herbs we collected in the mountains. Think carefully about what kind of herb it is." Li Yun guided Dabao.
Shangguan Feiyun already knew the answer, and from what Yun'er said, she seemed to know the answer as well.
A quarter of an hour later, Dabao finally knew the answer.
"The answer is 'Pinellia ternata'," said Dabao.
"Congratulations, young master, you got the answer right. This lantern is yours." After hearing the answer, the boss praised Dabao and asked his servant to give the lantern to Dabao.
Dabao was very happy holding the lantern he won.
"Dabao is awesome!" Li Yun gave Dabao a thumbs up and praised him.
"Mom, Sanbao also wants a lantern." Sanbao saw Dabao win the lantern. She was envious, but not jealous. She was happy for Dabao.
"Okay, let's look at the second question." Li Yun held Xiaohua and went to look at the second riddle.
"Don't ask for help when you encounter difficulties." Guess an idiom.
