Nongmen shrew: Farming with cubs is spoiled by rough men

Chapter 320 You Can't Be Wronged, Xiang Ling

Fortunately, he is still there.

Seeing her, Fei Chengcheng, who was practicing sword in the yard, smiled softly: "You got up, did you sleep well last night?"

"Ah."

She responded, watched him put the sword aside, then walked up to her and said with a serious face: "The emperor already knew about Princess Pingting, and ordered someone to send her back."

Qin Zhiyi was surprised: "So fast?"

Fei Chengcheng nodded again: "It's not too late. The emperor originally wanted me to escort him, but I refused. Ah Yi, the emperor said that the border was in chaos and asked me to go."

She recalled carefully, there was such a thing.

When there was another rebellion on the border, Fei Chengcheng was sent to counter the rebellion again. This year, there was a severe drought, especially in the Central Plains.

At that time, not only the border, but even the people in the Central Plains will be in chaos frequently because of lack of food and displacement.

"Then are you going?"

Fei Chengcheng nodded: "Of course I'm going, but this time I want to take you with me, I'm worried that it won't be safe here after I leave."

She also had the same idea, so she said, "Why don't you go together and tell the emperor to guard the border, so that he won't be suspicious, and you will be far away from the emperor. What you want to do then will be much more convenient than now."

When the eldest brother came to deliver food again, Qin Zhiyi urged him to prepare more food for storage.

He even asked him to take back all the dried vegetables and fried bamboo shoots he sent.

In addition, Qin Zhiyi gave him another five thousand taels of silver.

The eldest brother looked at the bank note, a little puzzled: "What are you doing, sister?"

Qin Zhiyi said, "Don't ask too many questions. In short, do what I tell you. It's best to use all the five thousand taels of silver to buy food, and then gather the people in the village and tell those uncles and sisters-in-law to go After that, don’t go to the town anymore, and don’t accept strangers from the village casually.”

When she said so, Qin Daniu nodded and agreed.

"Okay, I'll do what my sister says."

Qin Zhiyi said again: "In a few days, I will send Laiwang and the others back, and we have to go further west. Ah Cheng has asked the emperor for an order to go to the border to guard."

"younger sister……"

Qin Daniu looked at Qin Zhiyi with some reluctance, and he knew what it was like to go to the border.

Although their place is already to the west, it is not particularly remote after all. However, it will take at least four or five days to drive west from their place. I am afraid that it will be difficult to see each other after we leave today.

Thinking of this, Qin Daniu felt even more sad.

"Sister, how long have you been guarding the border? Will you come back later?"

"Maybe I will come back. I don't know that there hasn't been a single rain since those snowfalls in winter. How are the crops at Qinjiazhuang?"

Hearing what his sister said, Qin Daniu also realized that something was wrong, so he said: "Hearing what you said, I just remembered that it hasn't rained for a long time. The village still grows crops, but God doesn't rain, everyone just You can pick them in the river."

"By the way, the river has dropped a lot."

At the end, he looked at Qin Zhiyi and asked, "Sister, do you think God will never rain? If it continues like this, there may be a famine."

How should she explain it to her elder brother?I just felt that there was no way to talk about it, so I said again: "Regardless of whether there will be a famine or not, let's stock up more food. If there is a saying that the family has surplus food, don't panic."

"Yes, my sister is right. When I go back, I will buy some food and store it up. Tell the villagers to do the same. As for the money..."

It was the first time Qin Daniu took so much money, and his hands couldn't help shaking.

"Is it a bit too much?"

"If you have too much, you can save it. No matter what, you can feel at ease when you have money in your hand, but the most important thing is to have food."

She reminded her several times, but she didn't dare to say directly that there would really be a famine, she only said that she was prepared for any danger.

She has done everything that should be done, but it is unknown how many people will really listen to her.

The emperor's imperial decree came after half a month, and Fei Chengcheng's request was granted.

Qin Zhiyi went to Xu's mansion again, and asked Mrs. Xu to advance the date a little bit, and hold an engagement banquet for Laiwang and the others before they left.

The reason is also very simple, they are going to the border, and the engagement banquet is held while they are still there, and the house is also lively, besides, she also matched the two children, and she wants to see their lovers finally get married.

Mrs. Xu readily agreed, and Qin Zhiyi also asked Mrs. Xu to stockpile food before leaving. As for the basis, she only said that even Qinjiazhuang was already in drought. Since the price of grain is not very high, buy more and save it.

The date was set on the eighth day of March, and three days would be the day of their engagement.

Qin Zhiyi, on the other hand, acted happier than she was getting engaged.

Even if the time is short, you can't wrong him.

Qin Zhiyi told the elder brother and sister-in-law the news, and when the elder brother and sister-in-law came, they took them along and prepared the things that should be prepared together.

The sister-in-law is also very generous, they have saved some money in the past two days, and she almost took out most of it.

She was usually reluctant to buy even a simple silver hairpin, so she went directly to the jewelry store and bought it.Gold bracelets, necklaces, earrings and gold hairpins.

He even specially asked the goldsmith to make a pair of golden locks for his future daughter-in-law.

Seeing this, even Qin Zhiyi couldn't help but praise sister-in-law for her carefulness.

In addition, my sister-in-law also prepared new clothes for spring, summer, autumn and winter.

After doing all this, I still didn't forget to express my feelings to her: "I thought that Laiwang was still young, but who knew that in a flash, he would be at the age of marrying a wife."

Qin Zhiyi took her hand and said, "It's not good to be old. Look at the two of my family, they have grown up from Xiaodouding. But sister-in-law, you are very careful, and you have bought everything."

Xue Chunhua sighed and said: "She is the sister of the county magistrate, and she is born as a daughter of a thousand gold. I am afraid that even if I prepare these, they will not look down on them. If I can prepare these, I will spend the rest of the money on them. Use it when you get married."

Qin Zhiyi comforted her and said, "That's not true. That girl is smart and virtuous, so why would she dislike her? Seeing you prepare these, she must be very moved."

On the day of the engagement, it was placed in their house.

Each of the two families invited some people to eat wine, and the Qin family village invited the relatives who should come.

At the beginning, everyone was very cramped, especially the people in Qinjiazhuang, who seemed unable to let go.

But in the end, I found that Mrs. Xu, Master Xu and Miss Xu were all so approachable, and they gradually let go.

Xiangling was wearing new clothes, looking at Laiwang, both of them smiled foolishly.

They were finally able to come together and finally got everyone's blessing.

The two toasted in turn, until at the end when Mrs. Xu was about to leave, she took Xiangling's hand and said, "You saw it today, your future aunt is good, and your future mother-in-law is also very sensible. Don't worry, but now, sister-in-law can entrust you to him."
