Xianyang was particularly lively in September this year, with people wearing military coats coming and going on the streets.
At the Nanjiao Cement Factory, all workers were called outside for a meeting.
The factory director stood on a high platform with a rosy face.
"Dear workers, the cement plant has achieved remarkable results since its opening. Most counties and prefectures have cement roads."
"You have contributed a lot to this. It is because of your hard work that the factory and Daqin are getting better and better!"
"Pah pah pah~"
Thunderous applause broke out, and the workers were so excited that their faces turned red and tears welled up in their eyes.
In the past, they were always scolded and despised for their work, but now the factory manager gives them respect and affirmation.
The workers' backs unconsciously began to straighten, their heads held high and their chests puffed out, their entire mental outlook refreshed.
"To thank you for your hard work this year, the factory has decided to give us seven days off starting tomorrow and also distribute New Year's Eve benefits."
"Also, workers with outstanding performance will be promoted to team leaders. Those whose names are called, please step forward..."
The factory director took out a list and began to announce loudly.
When everything was over, it was time to get off work.
The workers returned home happily, carrying pork, flour and bonuses.
Chen Ergou was also one of them, but he was a little distracted as he looked at the copper work badge in his hand.
The goal in my heart was achieved so quickly?
He is so lucky!
Chen Ergou looked at the magnificent clouds in the sky, and his mood was also dyed into a bright orange-red.
At night, Xianyang City is even more lively than during the day.
Due to Chu Yuening's suggestion, Ying Zheng ordered the curfew during New Year's Eve to be lifted.
Then the people can happily enjoy this rare happy time of the year.
New Year's Eve in the Qin Dynasty was no longer a day to exorcise ghosts and ward off evil spirits. With the blessing of the dragon god, the people celebrated the last few days of the year with great enthusiasm.
"Wow! It's the Dragon Lantern!"
The little boy riding on his father's shoulders pointed happily to the front, holding a fragrant pancake in his hand.
"Where?"
The middle-aged man stood on tiptoe and looked forward through the dark crowd.
I saw a golden dragon lantern winding towards me, the dark golden dragon scales were painted vividly, and the dragon head was majestic and domineering.
The people who were originally strolling on the street were attracted and followed the dragon lantern team devoutly.
In this way, the dragon lantern paraded through every street in Xianyang, and more and more people joined the team.
"Lord Shenlong, please bless me so that I can enter the factory next year."
"I hope next year will be blessed with good weather and a good harvest."
"Master Shenlong, thank you..."
“…”
The people prayed sincerely and simply, with smiles and hopes on their faces that they had never seen before.
War, death, hunger, cold, despair...were getting farther and farther away from them until they disappeared.
With a wise Majesty, a benevolent queen, and the divine dragon protecting the Qin Dynasty, their lives will surely get better and better.
must.
The next day, inside Qinian Palace.
Chu Yuening propped up her face and listened to A Ye's description. Ying Zhao in the baby chair followed suit, also propping up his chubby little face.
"...A golden dragon lantern soared through Xianyang City, looking majestic and awe-inspiring, resembling the mighty Dragon!"
"And in the end, the whole city's people followed behind to pray for blessings. It was so lively!"
A Ye was so excited that he danced with joy and his expression was very exaggerated.
The more Chu Yuening listened, the more envious she became, and she bit her cherry lips lightly with her pearly teeth.
I haven't felt the lively atmosphere of the New Year for a long time. It's a pity that I missed such a spectacular scene yesterday.
"Dragon! Majestic!"
Ying Zhao clapped and cheered, showing great support.
"Sister, Zhao Zhao can talk now!"
Ah Hua's eyes widened in surprise.
"Well, I taught him recently. He's very smart and learns very quickly."
Chu Yuening has been accompanying Ying Zhao recently, and has even specially made a batch of small cards with patterns on them to teach him how to identify them.
Now the baby has a basic understanding of the things around him and can say a few simple words.
"Baby, this is Auntie~"
"Auntie!"
Ying Zhao's well-behaved appearance made the three of them so adorable.
A Ye quickly came to Ying Zhao and coaxed him,
"Zhao Zhao, can you call me uncle?"
"Uncle! Play~"
Ying Zhao liked this little brother who often played with toys with him, and he even gave A Ye a wet kiss on the face.
He also noticed the envious expression of Ah Hua on his right, and kissed her without hesitation.
Chu Yuening next to her had a dark face.
Baby, you are so young, yet you understand the principle of sharing everything equally?
The brother and sister played with Ying Zhao for a while. Seeing that the baby was beginning to feel sleepy, Chu Yuening asked her aunt to carry him to sleep.
"How is Aunt Chen?"
Chu Yuening always kept this savior in mind.
The mastermind behind the last assassination had not been caught yet, so she didn't dare leave the palace to visit Aunt Chen, for fear of bringing her more trouble.
I could only send some precious medicinal materials and money, and also provide some help in work.
Chu Yuening did not give her too much wealth. After all, although the laws of the Qin Dynasty were strict, there might be jealous people who would take risks.
"Aunt Chen has recovered very well and is healthier than before."
"Yes, she is the team leader now and is very motivated every day!"
A Ye and A Hua were also very grateful to Aunt Chen.
If anything had happened to their elder sister that day, they would have regretted it for the rest of their lives. If they hadn't begged their elder sister to come visit them, they wouldn't have been assassinated.
"Well, that's good. You guys take good care of her."
"And you guys, don't feel guilty. Those assassins clearly planned this for a long time. I will eventually leave."
