The story of the struggle of the poor girl who crossed

Chapter 102 Promotion
Mai Xiang approached the governor and said, "My lord, it's not enough to just open up wasteland. This will easily cause soil erosion and desertification. During the process of opening up wasteland, we should also properly plant protective forests."

She eloquently told the governor about the significance and necessity of afforestation, and the governor was dumbfounded: Hey, this General Liang is really a woman who does not give way to a man!Looking at her like this, she should know astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom. Apart from her poor martial arts, she is an all-rounder!
Can do business, cook well, know how to make weapons, farm tools, female celebrities are also good, can raise fish, can build water cellars, Karez wells, reservoirs... The most rare thing is that he is a good person with a pure heart. Over the past year, The number of people she has rescued is not ten thousand, but six or seven thousand.

The people in the entire Lushan area have received her great favor. If it weren't for her kind deeds, these people would definitely not be able to survive that winter.Without her help, everyone would have starved to death and frozen to death, so there is no chance to take root in the Northwest.

Moreover, because of her suggestion, the immigrants have now settled down and settled down in the northwest wholeheartedly.

At the beginning, when everyone first came to the Northwest, Mai Xiang went to the military camp and suggested to Zhao Yan that those who wanted to join the army among the immigrants should postpone their enlistment for one year.During this year, those immigrants can have enough time to settle down at home, and learn a little martial arts by themselves.In this case, if you want to go to the battlefield, you will not die in vain.

Zhao Yan reported her proposal to the governor.

The Governor-General learned about the status quo of the immigrants, and nodded in agreement.

Those who can join the army must be strong laborers among immigrants.Keeping the strong laborers at home for a year can also help the family reclaim the land, grow food early, and get rid of poverty earlier.

Now, more than a year has passed, and spring has begun.Immigrant families, as long as there are males over the age of 15, must send one person to join the army.

Tian Sheng and Mao Lin are also going to join the army.

However, the two were on good terms, Mao Lin went to the kitchen to work as a cook, and Tian Cheng became the backbone of the Lushan Weisuo Ranch.Because, in the past year, Tian Sheng was the person in charge of Mai Xiang's ranch.When I was in Liangjia'ao, I often went to help Mai Xiang's farm, so I was considered a professional.

As for Maolin, he had worked in welcoming guests for a few years before, and he has heard and seen that his cooking skills are pretty good.In Luhuawan, he was also in charge of the mill, and now he is in the barracks, working in the kitchen is just right.The kitchen in the barracks naturally has a mill.

Xiaolu, Tian Sheng's son, was also sent to the Enlightenment Class of Hongye Academy.

A year later, Chunsheng has left the enlightenment class and went to the children's class.The so-called children's class is the class for preparing for the exam.Ban Xia is still studying in Juren class, and this fall, he plans to take the Juren exam.

Mai Xiang received a letter from Situ Changfeng, saying that in two days, he would come to the northwest to pick her and her family to the capital.

When Mai Xiang received the letter, he was already on the way.She wanted to stop it, but it was too late, so she had to give up.

Her younger brother Banxia is going to take the Juren examination in the Northwest, so she definitely won't leave the Northwest at this time, and she doesn't want to go to the capital either.In that part of the capital, the water is too deep!Moreover, there must be countless people who want to marry Situ Changfeng. When she goes to the capital, she must often face provocations from various women.

She didn't want to face this situation.

She felt that her life in the northwest was good, although it was not as beautiful and comfortable as the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.However, looking at the beautiful scenery developed and created by herself bit by bit, she was still very happy in her heart.

Besides, the folks from Liangjia'ao are now from Zaozigou.She took her family away, the villagers must be very disturbed, right?No matter what, she had to wait for everyone to live a better life before leaving. Otherwise, how could she feel at ease?
Leaving the familiar folks and going to the unfamiliar capital, parents and grandparents must be very uncomfortable, right?If she hadn't been worried about the marriage problems of her younger siblings, she would not have considered leaving Northwest.

In the northwest, there are military households everywhere. If you don't leave the northwest, your younger brothers and sisters can only marry the children of military households.In this case, he would not be able to escape the life of the military household for the rest of his life.

Such a result was not what she wanted.

In Mai Xiang's infinitely entangled mood, Situ Changfeng came to her side.

Situ Changfeng and Mai Xiang met in the family room outside the barracks, in Mai Xiang's exclusive courtyard.

"Mai Xiang, long time no see, I miss you so much!" Situ Changfeng stretched out his arms, and hugged Mai Xiang into his warm embrace without hesitation.

Mai Xiang quickly pushed him: "This is in the courtyard, someone is watching!" The five personal soldiers, as well as the guards brought by Situ Changfeng, more than [-] people, were all watching helplessly.

Situ Changfeng said disapprovingly: "They are all on their own, they won't talk nonsense, and you are my fiancée, so why should I be ashamed if I hug my fiancée?"

Mai Xiang rolled his eyes at him: "What fiancee? Did you propose to me? Did you go to my house to make an appointment?"

Situ Changfeng was not angry, and said very seriously: "I came this time to hire you at your house, and now I will propose to you." After saying that, he knelt down on one knee, and he didn't know when his hands were full. With an extremely expensive jade bracelet, she looked at her affectionately: "Mai Xiang, I want to marry you, please marry me, okay?"

Mai Xiang's eyes widened in surprise: Isn't it?He really proposed in public, and even knelt on one knee, he is the dignified son of Prince Rong, okay?Kneeling down with a woman from a farming family like her, does the emperor know?Does his father agree?

Mai Xiang couldn't help being stunned, and froze on the spot.

Is it really good for him to look like this?If Prince Rong found out, he would be furious, right?

Seeing this, Situ Changfeng hurriedly said: "Mai Xiang, this bracelet is a relic of my biological mother. She means that it is a family heirloom of the Dongfang family, and it was left to her by my grandmother."

The Dongfang family is the natal family of Situ Changfeng's biological mother.

Mai Xiang quickly waved her hand: "No, I can't take it for such a precious price!" Accepting it means that I agree with him.However, the gap between her and him is too big, and he is too popular, she can't grasp such a man.

Situ Changfeng insisted on putting it on for her: "I say yes, don't think too much, I will definitely marry you!"

"Go into the house for a while and have a cup of tea, let's talk about this topic again!" Mai Xiang looked at him, seeing his dusty appearance, quickly changed the subject, and led him into the living room.

Chen Dong had already cleverly made a pot of tea, put a plate of salted and dried peanuts on the table, and then quickly left the living room, leaving room for Mai Xiang and Situ Changfeng.

Mai Xiang pulled Situ Changfeng, sat down at the table, and poured him a cup of tea: "You have a cup of tea first, and I'll get some fruits." It must be very hard to come all the way, eating something produced in one space Apple, it feels better.

She entered the bedroom, closed the door, carried a basket, and entered the space to pick a basket of apples.Soon, I washed a few apples, cut them into small pieces, and brought them to the living room.

"Eat some apples, I'll cook in a while!" Mai Xiang was at a loss for words.

I don't know why, but now she always feels that there are too few topics in front of Situ Changfeng.That's right, he is a dignified relative of the emperor and the commander of the Jinyiwei.She is just a country girl, and she really has no common language with him.

Situ Changfeng felt it, and couldn't help but panic.

He also understands Mai Xiang's temperament, he is a very stubborn person.Once she has decided on something, unless a miracle occurs, it will be difficult for her to make a change.

"Mai Xiang, I'm serious about you, I mean it sincerely!" Situ Changfeng hurriedly grabbed Mai Xiang's hand.

Mai Xiang avoided: "I told you a long time ago that if I am dissatisfied, I will not get married. Moreover, it seems a bit irresponsible for me to leave now that the Northwest is like this. Don't say anything else, just talk about Zaozigou Well, that’s from Liangjia’ao. If I take my family and leave at this time, one can imagine how panicked they will be? Also, Banxia has to open Juren in the northwest, so I’m leaving at this time It's not appropriate to leave him alone in the northwest!"

Hearing what she said, Situ Changfeng couldn't help looking at the sky helplessly.

Yes, she was right, it was really hard for her to leave at this time.

Mai Xiang said again: "Although the environment in the northwest is a bit worse, compared to the capital, I still prefer to stay in the northwest. The water in the capital is too deep, and the population density is too high, so it's not the place I want to go. In the capital, if you don't pay attention, you will meet someone from a noble family. Most importantly, if I stay in the capital, there will be many girls who like you who will come to trouble me.

I like quietness, I don't like intrigue with others, and I don't like my husband being missed by too many women.This feeling is not good, very bad, very bad.Such a day, not to mention a lifetime, even a month, I guess I can't bear it!You should forget about me, you and I are not from the same world, it should be difficult for me to integrate into your social circle! "

Situ Changfeng was stunned, stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "You think too much, I'm a disfigured person, not many women will miss it, so don't worry!"

However, Mai Xiang gave him a blank look: "The matter of your disfigurement must be false, right? Even if it is true, the identity of Prince Rong's concubine should be missed by many people. What's more, if I guess right , you should be a handsome man!"

ah?Guess it all? !
Situ Changfeng couldn't help being taken aback, and didn't dare to hide it anymore: "You guessed right, I am indeed not disfigured, and the scars on my face are fake. This is done to scare away those who stalk me, and I am not afraid to follow When you said that, the Empress Dowager’s niece and grandniece fell in love with me, but I hated her so much. I had no choice but to pretend to be disfigured! Sure enough, when that superficial woman saw that I was disfigured, she hid faster than anyone else!”

Mai Xiang: "In the future, you can't pretend for the rest of your life, can you?
Situ Changfeng: "I won't pretend for the rest of my life. When we get married, I will slowly remove the scars!"

Mai Xiang: "Come on, you have so many rotten peach blossoms, I can't bear it! In the capital city, just a girl with both talent and beauty, her family background and status can suppress me."

Situ Changfeng became anxious: "You don't have to worry, everything is up to me!"

Mai Xiang waved her hand: "All capable men in this world have three wives and four concubines. If you and I get married, those wives and ladies in the capital will be willing to watch me live a comfortable life. It is necessary to try to plot against you. Stuff women into your backyard."

Situ Changfeng: "I promise you, no matter who gives me women, I will definitely get rid of those women quickly, and I will never let them cause trouble in front of your eyes!"
