The story of the struggle of the poor girl who crossed

Chapter 76
Mai Xiang nodded: "I see, thank you little uncle for your concern! After we leave, my little uncle will be responsible for opening a new welcoming hotel, and the task is not easy. My little uncle must pay attention to his health, get along well with his little aunt, and take care of him far away. Peng is a warm home!"

Facing Shang Maixiang's eagerly looking eyes, Hua Yangfan couldn't say no to her, so he just nodded: "Well, I understand, I will work hard!" There is no other way.When the time comes, Heli, that's for sure.Even for Yuanpeng, he can't live with a selfish and stupid woman for a lifetime.

Hearing his answer, Mai Xiang's heart was finally at peace.

Shopkeeper Liang's wife is very supportive of her husband. When she heard that he was going to open a branch in the northwest, she just kept silent for a moment and said, "It will be cold in the northwest soon. I'll go and pack some big woolen clothes for you. There are a few pairs of long boots!"

The shopkeeper Liang said: "You don't need to clean up too much, just have two sets of laundry, and I will come back next spring! At that time, our family can be together for a long time, and we don't have to be separated all the time! In the future, where will I go to open Branch, I will take you there. If the northwest is not too far away, and the weather and environment are too harsh, I would like to take you with me!"

Without his wife and children by his side, he would miss him very much, and he was not at ease, for fear that they would be bullied.

Mrs. Liang smiled: "Okay, I got it! Next time you go to another place to open a branch, I will stalk you and follow you! But, isn't your decision to go to the Northwest too hasty? ? I decided to go today, and I will leave tomorrow!"

Shopkeeper Liang: "This time I went to the northwest, I was worried that the road to the Dadong family would be unsafe, and the Dadong family would settle down in the northwest in the future. In this case, if the Dadong family has any difficulties in the future, there will be someone who can ask for help. The place."

Mrs. Liang's eyes couldn't help getting wet: "Oh, Mai Xiang is such a good girl, she was sent to the northwest by someone. It's too much for a good scholarly family to become a military household! If I were Mai Xiang's words, definitely can't bear such a blow, it's her, and she can still smile so happily! Sigh, this child's heart is really wide!"

Shopkeeper Liang took out his handkerchief and wiped away the tears from his wife's eyes: "Don't be sad, this girl Mai Xiang is very strong, stronger than any woman I've ever seen. Just such a little tribulation can't defeat her." What's more, there is Situ Changfeng now, with him helping Maixiang's family, the life of Maixiang's family will be better and better!"

Mrs. Liang snatched the handkerchief and wiped away her tears: "Well, I know, I just feel sorry for this child. He is only 14 years old, and he is two years younger than our family's Yueer. It is really hard to bear so much at such a young age. It hurts!"

Shopkeeper Liang: "Yes, Yue'er is still carefree and doesn't worry about anything. In another year, she will get married. After I leave, you can let her take care of the housework too! Cook, too. You have to learn a lot, at least you have to know how to cook three or two special dishes!"

Mrs. Liang: "I see, I will take her to learn it myself!"

Originally, Yue'er was supposed to get married at the age of 15.Because of the influence of Mai Xiang, Mai Xiang said that if she gets married too early, the quality of the child will be poor, and the mother is prone to dystocia, which is also very harmful to the body.Therefore, shopkeeper Liang discussed with his wife, and waited for his daughter to be 17 years old before marrying.Originally, she wanted her daughter to marry when she was full, but the other party didn't want to wait that long.

They had no choice but to take a step back and wait for Yue'er to get married at the age of 17.The man is now 19 years old, and if we wait any longer, he will be in his 20s.The man's mother and grandmother are eager to hug their grandson!If it wasn't for this reason, Shopkeeper Liang would definitely insist on not getting married until his daughter is full.

Shopkeeper Liang will basically be convinced by what Mai Xiang said.

The time to set off has finally arrived!
Mrs. Liang spent a few days with Mai Xiang, and she was very reluctant to part with her. She took Mai Xiang's hand, and said with tears in her eyes: "Mai Xiang, when you arrive in the northwest, you have to take good care of yourself! If you have any difficulties, just go with me. The shopkeeper who greeted the guests said, let the shopkeeper tell your uncle. If we can help, we will try our best to help. You don’t want to do anything, just take care of yourself! My daughter, please take care of yourself and don’t work too hard!"

Yue'er also said: "Sister Mai Xiang, the climate in the northwest is dry, you need to apply more protective face oil. If you can't buy a good one over there, just write to me and tell me, I will buy it and send it over!"

Then he said to Licorice and Poria: "At that time, I will send more, and the sisters of Licorice and Poria will also use it together! If you need to buy anything, you can't buy it in the northwest, so write to me! Don't be polite to me, We are all surnamed Liang, we are all a family, and I am your sister!"

Naturally, Mai Xiang and her sisters would not be polite to her, they all said "Okay, thank you!"

Yue'er is a very cheerful girl, and also very kind, talented female celebrities are good.The most important thing is that she doesn't have a deep sense of family status, and she doesn't look down on Mai Xiang and the others just because they are country girls.It's rare to meet such a good girl who can get along well, and Mai Xiang is very reluctant in her heart. When she arrives in the northwest, she will definitely design a jewelry picture for this girl as a gift for her marriage.

The group bid farewell with tears, and even Tan Yufang suddenly felt a little bit reluctant in her heart.In other words, when Mai Xiang is here, she can indeed help her a lot.Even when she quarreled with her husband, Hua Yangfan's attitude would soften a lot with Mai Xiang's persuasion.

Yuanpeng realized that Mai Xiang was leaving, so he jumped on her body, babbling, as if saying: "Sister, I can't bear you, don't leave!"

Mai Xiang hugged Yuan Peng and stuffed a purse into his pocket.

Hua Yangfan quickly took it out and wanted to return it to Mai Xiang. Mai Xiang hurriedly said: "There is a Jade Guanyin inside, which was consecrated, and bless Yuanpeng's health and safety! Accept it, this is a piece of my sister's gift." What a thought!"

After she said that, Hua Yangfan had no choice but to accept it: "Then, I will thank you on behalf of Yuanpeng!"

Mai Xiang: "Don't be so polite, I'm his older sister, but a Jade Guanyin, I should."

Watching Mai Xiang get into the carriage, the convoy went away.

Only then did Hua Yangfan carry Yuanpeng back to the courtyard where he lived, and when he opened his purse, he couldn't help being surprised.It turned out that besides one Jade Guanyin, there were ten ten taels of silver notes.Inside, there is also a small note: "This is to buy milk goat for Yuanpeng. Goat milk is good for health. When boiling goat milk, add some almonds or jasmine flowers to remove the smell."

"This child, what should I ask my little uncle to say?" Hua Yangfan looked at the little note, tears filled his eyes, and his voice was choked.

Tan Yufang couldn't help feeling a little ashamed when she saw the fine-quality Jade Guanyin and the stack of bank notes.Alas, this Mai Xiang, why is she being so nice to Yuanpeng? It makes her feel embarrassed.

This Jade Guanyin is very valuable at first glance, at least 200 taels of silver.However, Mai Xiang herself is very frugal, only three or four sets of clothes every season.Moreover, they are all ordinary cotton cloth, and none of them are made of satin or silk.

With Mai Xiang's ability, she can wear silk and satin.

Moreover, Mai Xiang didn't have any gold or silver ornaments on her body.

The more Tan Yufang thought about it, the more ashamed she felt.Thinking of the golden hairpin that Mai Xiang gave her before getting married, that golden hairpin gave her a lot of face in front of her natal relatives.And her?After getting married, she didn't make a new dress for Mai Xiang, nor bought a piece of jewelry for Mai Xiang.

No wonder, the husband is so angry.

In the eyes of her husband, she must be a very ignorant person, right?Or, in her husband's heart, she must be very indifferent and perfunctory to Mai Xiang and Mai Xiang's family?That's right, if it was her, she would think the same way.

Alas, could it be that she did something wrong in the past?
Plans never change fast.

Mai Xiang and his team drove for five days, and it seems that they will reach the northwest in about one day.However, Situ Changfeng received an urgent order, and the emperor told him to return to the capital immediately.Because the situation in the capital is uneasy, there is a high possibility of major changes.

Situ Changfeng couldn't help frowning deeply.

Knowing the truth, Mai Xiang quickly said: "Brother Situ, the emperor has an order. If you don't return to the capital immediately, you will be disobeying the order. Moreover, the imperial order came so urgently, something important must have happened. You'd better return to the capital immediately, don't miss the important event!
Now, we are about to reach the northwest, and I heard that the most dangerous section has passed.For the rest of the road, there is a guard station every fifty miles, so it should be safe! "

Shopkeeper Liang also quickly persuaded: "Yes, my lord, you'd better go with the imperial guards who delivered the decree! Emergency rescue is like putting out a fire. With me and fifty nurses here, we will definitely protect Mai Xiang's family!"

Situ Changfeng thought for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I will leave two of my subordinates behind to protect you quietly!"

Mai Xiang shook her head quickly: "You will definitely encounter assassinations along the way, take everyone around you away! Otherwise, how can I feel at ease? If you don't listen, don't see me in the future!"

Mai Xiang's words are sincere and her attitude is firm.Moreover, what she said makes perfect sense.This time he came out with only five men.Going to the capital, there will be many people who want to prevent him from entering the capital, and they will definitely send killers.Five of his subordinates followed him, and he was not sure of winning.

Situ Changfeng thought about it, sighed, and gave Mai Xiang a token: "This token is exclusive to the Commander of the Jinyiwei. You just need to take this token to the Northwest Governor, and he should take care of you a little bit." I'm leaving, I'm sorry I can't send you to the northwest, you have to take care of yourself!"

Mai Xiang nodded: "You too, take care!"

Speaking of which, she pulled him into the grove by the roadside, and handed three gray cloth bags: "This is a crossbow with ten bursts. I brought five in total this time. Here are three for you." Put on your defense!"

Just three days before the flood, she developed a ten-shot crossbow and asked Liang Gaoshan to build it.By the way, when Liang Gaoshan was young, he went to learn blacksmithing, and he also became a teacher.It's just that blacksmithing is too hard, and I can't go home. I can only go home one day a month.So, in the end, I gave up and didn't take the road of making iron to support my family.

Naturally, the more confidential the production of crossbows, the better.

In total, five crossbows were produced.She put them in the space before, but she took them out of the space when she got up today.

Situ Changfeng quickly declined: "No, you should use this crossbow to defend yourself!"

Mai Xiang couldn't help but put it in his arms: "I still have two. When I get to the northwest, I will make a few more when I have a suitable opportunity! You will be in danger all the way back to Beijing, so I have an extra one for self-defense." Things, I also feel at ease!"
