see you tonight princess

The list posted by Xia Lvsi was not believed in from the very beginning. The farmers surrounded the posts on the list and surrounded the people who came to explain.

Xia Lusi let the people sent down only explain but not defend.Moreover, Xia Lusi has divided the tasks among everyone. Xia Lusi's approach is "simple and direct", there is nothing to object to, and there is nothing to bargain. do my best--

——We are already slaves, what else can we lose? !Now that the work is assigned and we finish it, at least we don't have to do endless hard work day and night. If we do a good job, maybe we are really freed from slavery?Let's go to work!

——If the land can be divided as long as it is well planted, then three points will be divided in one year, and three acres of land will be available in ten years. The best one hundred households.

——The grain production can still be shared with us. Doesn’t it mean that the more I harvest, the more I get? !I'm going to turn over the land again before the rain comes, deep plowing can produce high yields!

——My family has a small land and a lot of people, and I don’t have enough rations to eat. If I can go to the farm to help, and I can get real gold and silver for my meals, that’s really good, Erhuzi, Erhuzi, come and see!

"Let's go, everyone, go to work in the field, and if you finish it, it's yours!"

"Let's go, let's hoe the ground."

In this way, after the spring sowing passed, the large tracts of land under Jiangzhou City assigned tasks to the farmers. Although the work of the farmers did not decrease, they felt strangely motivated and enthusiastic, and they were not afraid of hardships or hardships at all. tired.

In the blink of an eye, it is June, and every household is full of joy, because this year, whether it is the growth of rice in the paddy fields, or the production of fruits and vegetables in the dry land, it is very gratifying. It looks like a bumper year!

Xia Lvsi reserved nearly [-] mu of land near the greenhouse to form a farm. Xia Lvsi named his farm Liuyuan.This willow garden is different from other fields. From rice, wheat to all kinds of miscellaneous grains, all kinds of melons and fruits are available. Xia Lvsi has assigned farmers for any novel, difficult-to-grow, and low-yield ones. People take good care of them.

From February to May, cucumbers, radishes, lentils, edamame, lotus root, Chinese cabbage, loofah, zucchini, lettuce, celery, red cabbage, and other fruits and vegetables that are easy to transport and store are ripening.

Xia Lusi sent people to carry the vegetables onto her exclusive letter-delivery boat, and sent the freshest and most beautiful vegetables back to Zhaoli City every day.

On Duan Lingge and Duan Xi's food table, there are more and more fruits and vegetables.Every day when Duan Xi came back from his master, he complained that he was hungry. He ate too much in just a few months, grew taller and heavier, and grew so tall that he couldn't even wear the new clothes made years ago.

Duan Lingge patted his head lovingly, and smiled lightly: "Xi'er is growing very fast, and in a few years she will surpass Sister Sister."

Duan Xi smiled happily and said: "It's better to be Si Shizi's elder sister. She can grow so many delicious food after she leaves. Xiao'e said in her letter from home that she can send a lot of meat in the second half of the year. She is really capable, I would have asked her to go to Jiangzhou earlier."

Xiao'e also couldn't help laughing and said: "Who says it's not, Her Royal Highness has recently eaten the "Love Brand" vegetables from Jiangzhou, her appetite has improved a lot, and she will grow even more beautiful and attractive."

It turned out that Xia Lvsi started sending vegetables to the palace, and now she not only writes letters to Duan Lingge, but also to Lan Mo, with a list of dishes attached to the letter, and sometimes discusses monitoring with Lan Mo Experience and training experience.When she sent a letter to Lan Mo for the first time, she wrote in the letter:

The dishes delivered with the boat are guarded by the imperial guards throughout the process, and all the people who handle them are trustworthy people I have inspected.This is the "Love Brand" vegetable that I personally planted in my willow garden for princesses. You can tell my princess to eat it with confidence.

Xiao'e read this letter, but she was deeply impressed by the "Love Brand" vegetables.

When Duan Lingge heard it, the word was obviously made up by the monkey without seriousness. When Xiao'e said it seriously, it was really embarrassing and funny to hear.Duan Lingge feigned anger and said, "You are the only one who can talk."

"Slightly~" Xiao'e stuck out her tongue lightly, and quickly said obediently: "Xiao'e pour tea for the princess."

What she got in exchange for leaving... Duan Lingge no longer participated in the conversation between Duan Xi and Xiao'e Lanmo, and ate slowly with the most elegant movements with a calm expression.

Then three days later, the fast horse arrived in Jiangzhou in eight hundred miles, and on the eighth day, the Zhizhou of Jiangzhou hurriedly trotted into the palace following the footsteps of the servants, and ran all the way to the main hall of Yuanji Hall, with a plop Kneeling in front of Duan Lingge.

"My minister pays homage to His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess. After receiving the imperial decree from Princess Xuan Weichen to report on his duties in Beijing, I didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately set off overnight to meet the princess." Zhizhou kowtowed on the main hall.

"Zhizhou sit down and talk." Duan Lingge was dressed in a purple brocade robe embroidered with phoenix patterns in gold thread, and a gold-studded jewel cloud-pattern Bu Yao on her head. Her expression was reserved and calm, and her tone was gentle.

After Zhizhou sat down, he began to tell Duan Lingge's request one by one about Jiangzhou's taxation situation, local customs and so on in the past few years.Zhizhou reported on his work for an hour, and after Zhizhou finished his general situation, Duan Lingge, who had been listening attentively, asked casually, "My son-in-law is in Jiangzhou, so I don't know how he is doing."

Zhizhou cupped his hands and said, "Uh, well, the son-in-law rarely interacts with officials in Jiangzhou. She seems to be obsessed with farming. The Xia family's farm has been hardworking since the son-in-law came. When I came, it was the first season of rice harvest in Jiangzhou. Ji, after the harvest, the field will be plowed and planted for the second season. I saw the concubine once outside the city when I was investigating the conditions of the people. She was... uh, a lot darker, wearing coarse clothes, with mud on her feet, and was going to the fields and The farmers work together. Hard work is hard to avoid, and bumps and bumps are inevitable, and the son-in-law is quite hard-working, so he doesn't care..."

When Duan Lingge heard this, his mind was already absent-minded, and his beautiful eyes were already looking out of the hall through the flower window.

Zhizhou babbled on for a while, then secretly glanced at Her Royal Highness the Princess, only to see the dispirited expression of the saint Tianyan, he didn't know whether to continue talking, or just shut up, panicked in his heart, and quickly knelt on the floor of Duan Ling In front of Ge, he fell to the ground and didn't dare to make another sound.Zhizhou was so nervous that beads of sweat suddenly covered his forehead.

Seeing this, Xiao'e couldn't stand it anymore, so Fushen whispered to Zhizhou: "Princess, I think she is tired, please go back first, my lord."

"Thank you, ma'am, for your suggestion, I am very grateful." Zhizhou cupped his hands and said in a low voice, and then said goodbye loudly.

Duan Lingge didn't keep him either, and waved his hands and said calmly, "Xiao'e Lanmo, send Master Zhizhou down. You two are outside the hall, let me stay alone for a while."

Xiao'e and Lan Mo took orders to send Master Zhizhou out of the Yuanji Hall, and after watching the servant lead Zhizhou to the direction of the palace road, Xiao'e sighed softly, "The princess misses her."

Lan Mo was taken aback, and asked a little puzzled, "How do you know?"

Xiao'e glanced at her and pouted, "Oh, think about it~ Think about the prefect of Jiangzhou, he was the prefect when I was half a little older, when did the princess ask him to come back to Beijing to report on his work? If there are no accidents, he might never have the chance to return to Beijing to see the princess in this life, and Xia Chi has only been there for a few months now, and he said he was asking the magistrate to report on his duties, but in fact he didn't want to inquire about the concubine's situation."

Lan Mo suddenly realized: "Hearing what you said, it seems to be true. The princess's mind is so elusive."

Xiao'e sighed: "Princess's thoughts are twists and turns, very forbearing, hidden very deep. But why has she ever cared about anyone? She has never missed anyone. It is also to blame for that idiot. All the time I caused troubles for the princess, and the princess was so angry that she suffered from dizziness. I was thinking about the quarrel between the two of them that day. Fortunately, they were not the ministers of the previous court, otherwise they would be sent to the frontier. I just didn't expect her to take the initiative After leaving Jiangzhou, the princess will miss her."

"Hmm." Lan Mo nodded.Do others think Xia Shizi caused trouble...

In the evening, when Duan Lingge had just finished his dinner, Lan Mo said to her, "Would the princess go to visit Xia Shizi's shop with Lan Mo Weifu?"

Duan Lingge was a little surprised that Lan Mo would make such a suggestion, but Lan Mo usually doesn't talk much, so there must be her intentions.Duan Lingge nodded: "Let me go and have a look."

Lan Mo therefore folded his hands and waited outside the main hall of Feiyan Pavilion for Duan Lingge to change into light clothes and come out.After Duan Lingge came out, Lan Mo arranged for a soft carriage, which was driven by a master of the imperial guards, accompanied by four guards on horseback, and secretly arranged guards along the way.

The carriage left the palace from the palace gate on the east side and walked along the main street towards the city gate on the south side. When it reached Chengmen Street, the speed of the carriage slowed down.Duan Lingge gently opened the bead curtain of the carriage, and saw a red-painted and white-walled flower building in the distance, which was very dazzling and conspicuous.

"Here?" Duan Lingge said softly.

"This is the Golden Academy of Fine Arts that Xia Shizi bought at that time." Lan Mo continued, "It has been changed to Jingmei Building now."

It turned out that after Lan Mo came to Jingmei Tower that day, he was always a little restless when he went back, thinking about Fang Cuijiao's daily welcome and send-off relationship.So Lan Mo sent someone to investigate carefully, only to find out that there was a misunderstanding. This Jingmei Restaurant was no longer a brothel. When it reopened, it was already known as the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Zhaoli City.

Lan Mo said to Duan Lingge: "This Jingmei Building is known as the most luxurious in Zhaoli City, and the dishes are different from other places. You can customize expensive and rare dishes. Even ordinary ingredients can be cooked in unexpected ways to make a novelty." dishes. It has only been open for a few months, and the business is booming.”

"Xia Lusi made the people in the Academy of Fine Arts..." Duan Lingge became curious.

"That's right. Some of the people in Jinmei Academy, Yu Nuhong, were transferred to the garment workshop by Xia Shizi, and those who stayed in Jingmeilou were more beautiful and talented. They performed three times a day in Jingmeilou, and they were very popular. The romantic and famous people in Zhaoli City, literati and dignitaries are all keen to come here for banquets. The first pen is that the Minister of the Ministry of Industry opened Jingmei Building, saying that this building was supervised by himself, and the Come down to entertain relatives and friends, just this one banquet cost a total of 2000 taels of silver."

"It's so expensive? It's more expensive than a banquet in the palace." Duan Lingge laughed, shaking his head in disbelief.

"Well. One dares to spend and the other dares to earn. It has caused a sensation in the circle of officials and aristocratic families in Zhaoli City. So now Jingmei Building is temporarily closed to the public, and non-high-ranking officials and dignitaries are not accepted, and a kind of There are special ways to agree on the services, time, ingredients, etc. that customers need when they come to the door. The experience is special and there is a threshold, which makes people flock to it even more. Xia Shizi always has many unheard of ideas, and he always does it with People with wonderful things." Lan Mo said.

"She did what she said." Duan Lingge whispered.Xia Lvsi said that those women who unfortunately fell into prostitution and struggled to get out of the abyss should speak up, and let them live hard by their own labor.At that time, I was annoyed that she was talking nonsense and speaking lightly, but it turned out that she had been working hard to achieve what she had said.

"Xia Shizi's way of looking at things is indeed much higher than that of ordinary people. Most of these women are born in poverty. After being released from slavery, they can support themselves in this way. Wouldn't it be more beneficial to the people and the country than casual derogation?" Lan Mo Softly sigh.

Duan Lingge put down the bead curtain of the carriage, and she thought about every letter Xia Lvsi had written to her in the past few months. , her way of dealing with people, her thinking about serfs, peasants and land is undoubtedly extremely thoughtful and wise.

She may not be what she imagined, and she doesn't understand anything.At that time, she was pissed off, lost her usual rationality, blamed Xia Lvsi for being a playboy, blamed her for not earning a penny with her own hands, and was as proud as Duan Lingge, now sadly admits that she was unfair to her.

The dispute that day may have stimulated Xia Lvsi to make up her mind to make a difference in Jiangzhou, but objectively it made her go far away and go to a remote place to suffer.Zhizhou, who came to report on her work, said that she was tanned and worked hard in the fields with the farmers.

Duan Lingge naturally still remembered that her little wife, who was a few years younger than her, used to be an idiot, and she was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child. She never worked hard for a day.What's more, she has seen and touched it herself, the white skin is soft and delicate, and the palms don't even have any calluses. Now, according to what Zhizhou said, she doesn't know how spoiled it is.

Thinking of this, Duan Lingge frowned.She said softly to Lan Mo, "Lan Mo, invite her back to visit her relatives."?
