Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 237
However, the path is a bit hidden.If you don't know it in advance, it is really not easy to find this way.Let's put it this way, it's a bit like the description in "Peach Blossom Spring", the entrance is covered by a lush vine.

Da Ya was so happy that she immediately handed five ten taels of silver ingots to Hu Yanmao: "Brother Huyan, you have made a great contribution this time, and I will reward you with 50 taels of silver. When you come home from Xiaoqinghe, I will give you another one." Big watermelon, take it home and give it to your family!"

"Oh, I don't dare! How can I ask for my wife's money so much?" Hu Yanmao quickly refused, very sincere, without any hypocrisy.With him like this, Da Ya wanted to give him some money even more, so she insisted on giving it.

Hu Yanmao had no choice but to take a silver ingot: "Since Madam is so kind, I'd rather be respectful than obedient, but ten taels is enough, don't dare to be greedy! If you accept all 50 taels, then you are not greedy enough." , God can't see it!"

Some simple and unpretentious words made Da Ya's heart warm, and since then this person has been included in the scope of being able to make friends and trustworthy.As a result, she also gained Hu Yanmao's respect and helped her a lot in the future.

The three of Da Ya came back early, and everyone in Xiaoqinghe Oasis was overjoyed!
Hearing the sound of the carriage, everyone came out from a distance to greet him.

"Mother, Tiantian misses you so much!"

"Mother, Chuanjiang misses you too!"

The two brothers and sisters vigorously tossed their short legs, waved their short, white and tender arms, and rushed towards Da Ya's arms with unsteady steps.

"Oh, slow down, don't fall down!" Da Ya quickly opened her arms, rushed forward a few steps, and hugged the children tightly into her arms: "My little babies, mother misses you so much!" oh!"

Zhenxing also came to join in the fun, and deliberately said sadly: "Tiantian, Chuanjiang, don't you miss my brother?"

In one sentence, the two little guys were at a loss.

"Brother, brother, Tiantian misses you too!" Xiao Tiantian smiled cutely at Zhenxing, revealing two cute dimples, making people want to hug her and kiss her hard.

"Brother, brother, Chuanjiang also misses you so much!" Xiao Chuanjiang also quickly expressed his opinion, while saying, he patted his heart, expressing that he missed his brother in his heart.

"Xiao Chuanjiang, Xiao Tiantian, my brother misses you so much!" Zhenxing picked up Chuanjiang and hugged him in his arms. Chuanjiang's small hands wrapped tightly around his neck, and he talked to him in a childish voice. Yan Tongyu, all he asked was whether the county is fun, what's delicious, and what interesting things happened.

Not to be outdone, Xiao Tiantian also wrapped his small arms around his mother's neck, asking this and that in a childish voice.Silver-like laughter, floating on the empty Gobi Desert, added many happy notes to this sunny morning.

Shangguancheng walked around for a while, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became, and the more he looked at it, the more joyful and gratified he felt.Well, this sister-in-law's ability is not small, it is really admirable!No wonder she dared to take her three children to the Northwest, and no wonder she looked down on the status of the prince and concubine!

With her appearance, character, ability, wisdom, and brave heart, it is only right to give her the position of mother of a country!It's a pity that today's majesty is a fool, and he actually drove away such a good grandson-in-law!I don't know if one day, when he learns that Da Ya has so many amazing abilities, will he regret it?

Hehe, if it was him, he would definitely regret hitting the wall!
"Sister-in-law, you are right, this is indeed a good place! I support you to settle down here, and I also support you to start a business here, and make some earth-shattering achievements! Tell me, what do you need me to do for you? By the way, don't be polite to me!"

Shangguan Cheng looked at the endless watermelon field and said so.

Da Ya breathed a sigh of relief, it's fine if you don't object!If you are willing to help, it is even more desirable!Otherwise, how would she develop the 1-acre Gobi Desert?
"General, I want to ask some people to help reclaim the Gobi Desert and develop the more than 1 acres of Gobi Desert into crop fields, orchards, fish ponds, etc. I would like to ask the general to help recruit retired soldiers to work here. It doesn't matter if you are disabled, the most important thing is to have good conduct and be able to endure hardships and stand hard work! The more such people, the better.

For the first batch, I hope there will be about 30 people.These 30 people are here to take the lead. First, they have to go to the mountains to cut wood and pull the wood back to build a house!Otherwise, with so many people coming, there is not even a place to shelter from the wind and rain.After the house is built, three hundred people can come! "

Da Ya looked at Shangguan Cheng with burning eyes, full of anticipation and hope.

"Yo, that's it? It's very easy to handle. Speaking of it, you should help me! Many of my former subordinates have nothing to do after retiring from the army, and their lives are very hard. There are also some subordinates, Now that I am about to be discharged from the army, I am also worried about my future! It just so happens that your development prospects here are so good, and you don’t have to leave the Northwest, so you can often meet with Pao Ze in the army, they must be very willing to come!”

Hearing her request, Shangguan Cheng couldn't help grinning.That smile is so happy, so bright, so joyful.

After breakfast and resting for half an hour, Hu Yanmao offered to propose: "Madam, take a few people with you, and let's go measure the boundary line together and determine the area of ​​the Gobi Desert you bought!"

"Well, that's fine!" Da Ya beckoned Eleven and Liang Mandun: "You guys take your hoes and go with me!"

Shangguan Cheng hurriedly said, "I'll go with you too, just take it as a witness!"

"Alright, it's great that General Shangguan is willing to testify!" Hu Yanmao agreed very readily, and took the lead with a huge backpack on his back.

In the back basket is a special measuring tool for the county government.

Hu Yanmao is very good at doing it, and the land measured in the end is only a lot more.Shangguancheng said, at least one hundred acres more.When delineating the boundary line of the snow mountain, Hu Yanmao also put the valleys on both sides of the snow mountain under the name of Daya.

A valley is the bottom of a valley between mountains.The area is not small, a valley should have [-] to [-] acres, and a small pasture can be built!
Hu Yanmao was so clever, five days later, he finished the measurement work, and when he was about to go home, Da Ya gave him another 30 taels of silver, a big watermelon, more than ten catties of vegetables, and some vegetables brought from Hulu County. Come dry fruit.In addition, he was given a bolt of muslin.

Both parties were happy.

Shangguancheng also offered to leave: "Sister-in-law, I have been out for a few days and I have to go back to the barracks! A month later, I will bring someone to help you reclaim the land. Today, I will go with Hu Yanmao, and then the Familiarize yourself with the shortcuts, lest you make a mistake next time!"

Da Ya didn't keep her, and said with a hearty smile: "It's fine, the barracks shouldn't be away for too long! You go back this time, and help me bring [-] watermelons to the shopkeeper on the first floor in the northwest. I told the shopkeeper the money for selling watermelons." Shopkeeper, I will settle the payment with you when the time comes. This payment should be regarded as my support for the frontier army, so you can use it!"

"How can this be done? This will not work! Thirty watermelons should cost more than 3000 taels of silver. How can I ask for it?" Shangguan Cheng naturally resolutely declined.

"Don't argue, the money is not for you, but I donated it to the army! This is my support for the border guards. You can't deprive me of the right to patriotically support the army. That's wrong!" He had no choice but to use his trump card, so he said.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Shangguan Cheng was immediately speechless, so he had to silently agree.

"Second brother, here is 1000 taels of silver for your own use." The first time the eldest girl called him this way, Shangguancheng felt warm in his heart: "Sister-in-law, I have a salary in the military camp, so I can't ask for this silver." !"

"Take it! Most of your salary should be spent on the fifth younger brother, right? How can you not have some money when you go out? This is the wish of the sister-in-law. If you don't dislike it, just accept it! "Da Ya winked at Zhen Xing, Zhen Xing understood, took the purse from Da Ya's hand, and stuffed it in Shangguan Cheng's pocket without any explanation.

In the letter, Shui Qingqian once mentioned to Da Ya that he is the eldest, Shangguan Cheng is the second, and there is also the third and fourth, and the fifth is Shangguan Heng.

"Sister-in-law, please take care! If you encounter any difficulties, please send a message to me, or you can go directly to the barracks to find me!" Shangguan Cheng had tears in his eyes, in order to conceal the excitement in his heart And grateful, he quickly got on his horse and bid farewell to Yiyi.

Thousands of miles away, the capital Anyuan.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse tonight.

After dinner, Shui Qingqian sat at the stone table in the courtyard, drank tea facing the moon, and his heart had already flown to the northwest.Missing his wife and children, at this moment, swept in like a tide.

Yue'er, how are you doing in another country?Xiaotiantian, Xiaochuanjiang, my little ones, you can already walk, right?I will call my mother clearly
Shui Qingqian left the capital without authorization last time, and after returning, she was severely reprimanded by the emperor: "Next time if you dare to leave the capital without authorization, please forgive Da Ya's elder brother and younger brother, this life will be over! Her father And mother, don't want to have a good life! If you don't believe me, just try it!"

How could Shui Qingqian dare to go to the northwest to find Da Ya's mother and son's thoughts after being threatened by Emperor An He?So he had to listen to the prince's persuasion, suppress his restless heart, and go to the official department to do a good job.Not only that, but he had to devote his energy to comfort Xiang Xi, who was full of anxiety.

Shangguan Heng also moved into Anyuan, lived in the guest room, and had a like-minded friend in Xiangxi. His anxiety and anger finally calmed down gradually.

The three agreed that before Xiangxi and Shangguan Heng got married, they would all live together.If one day, Xiangxi or Shangguan Heng is going to get married, and buy a house outside, the married person will move out to live.Emperor Anhe provided Shui Qingqian with the temporary palace, and Shui Qingqian had no intention of living there at all.

In the temporary Pingxi Palace, Emperor Anhe released more than a dozen beautiful maids, all of whom were from rich families. Emperor Anhe specially organized a small draft for Qingshui. He picked it.

Emperor Anhe has also secretly selected the candidates for Pingxi Wang's main concubine, side concubine and concubine concubine.When the one-year period expired and Shui Qingqian was going to the northwest, Rao Da Ya hadn't shown up yet, so he took the opportunity to stuff these women into the carriage, and followed Shui Qingqian to the Pingxi Palace in the northwest.When the time comes, everyone will be on the road, and he will not be able to object.Emperor An He didn't believe it anymore. Shui Qingqian could still knock people off the road. A person with a sense of justice like him would definitely not be able to do such a thing!

Shui Qingqian knew nothing about all this.The prince knows a thing or two, but he can't say much.Emperor An He had warned him that if he revealed anything, he would lose his position as the crown prince!His son Zhenxing will never want to "recognize his ancestors and return to his clan"!
The prince couldn't help slandering in his heart: Zhenxing is now Qingqian's son in name, and Qingqian is also the emperor's grandson. Speaking of which, Zhenxing is tantamount to recognizing his ancestor and returning to his clan!The difference is that Zhenxing was originally the grandson of the emperor, not the son of a prince.
