The little kitten named Dirty has gradually become better after a few days of worry-free life, and before Mingxiu has time to be happy, an uninvited guest has come to the door.

"Mingxiu!"

was playing with the dirty with a homemade cat teasing stick in the yard, and a familiar call suddenly came from Mingxiu's ears.

Familiar, the smile on her face faded.

"Meow?"

Dirty looked at her inexplicably, not quite understanding why "Mom" was suddenly upset.

Xie Zhan stepped forward in two or three steps, took Mingxiu's hand, and said before she could break free: "I have already chosen a candidate to succeed to the throne, are you willing to wait for me for a while?" ”

He really ......

Abandoned the position of supremacy?

Mingxiu was a little moved.

Under the low roar of dirty threat, Mingxiu came back to his senses and possessed it and held it in his arms.

"Will you step down as regent?"

Mingxiu's questions are always so to the point, Xie Zhan is a little embarrassed, "There will always be such a day, it's just ...... Not yet. ”

The waste *** has not been cleared up, and there are even more discordant voices in the court, if he lets go now, the selected new emperor is likely to not have the ability to face everything in the court.

Then his arrangement with the former emperor may fall through.

It was the result of the emperor's lifelong efforts, and if it failed, Xie Zhan was not reconciled.

"Then wait until you step down."

"Why can't you understand my difficulties?!" Xie Zhan looked at her distressedly, and when he completely calmed down the situation, it would take two or three years to say the least, Mingxiu was already sixteen years old!

Would her parents allow her to remain unmarried until she was nineteen?

If Mingxiu finally marries another, then what is the point of all his efforts!

"You have your difficulties, but I also have my persistence." Mingxiu did not flinch, and looked at the man in front of him with a firm gaze.

It is true that marrying Xie Zhan can make her a master, and even the supreme person has to be polite to her, but even so, what can she do?

That's in exchange for freedom, and Mingxiu is unwilling.

Rather than being locked in a delicate golden wire cage and becoming a caged bird with fine clothes and food, what she wants more is to be free to soar in the sky.

Even if the days are difficult, you will not hesitate to face the storm and rain.

"Yes...... It's not that I don't want to promise you, I'm willing to give up everything for you, what else do you want? ”

Xie Zhan was almost hysterical, and from his standpoint, he had given up enough for Mingxiu.

Obviously he is the proud son of the sky, only one step away from winning the supreme, as long as he is willing, he can become the most noble man in the desert at any time, rich all over the world.

But for the sake of Mingxiu, he was willing to give up all this, just because she wanted to return to the countryside and be free.

It's just a few years later, why doesn't she want to wait and wait by his side.

"Don't you know my mind?"

From the very beginning, Mingxiu has already made clear her attitude, she doesn't want to be a caged bird, what she wants is to be an eagle soaring in the sky.

Who says women can't have their own piece of the sky?

Xie Zhan was depressed, he always knew that Mingxiu was not a docile woman who had no ideas, she had independent thinking, had her own ideas, and clearly knew what she wanted.

This is exactly what he likes about Mingxiu, but sometimes she is too persistent.

It's a good thing to be tenacious, but being too upright and unwilling to bow your head is sometimes really helpless.

With his status, it is not difficult to marry Mingxiu, and he only needs one sentence.

But......

He didn't want to do it as a last resort.

If it is forced, it will only push Mingxiu farther and farther.

“…… I know that your family is planning to open a carpenter's shop, and I have already said hello to Jing Zhaoyin, and no one will embarrass you. ”

Leaving the last sentence, regardless of Mingxiu's refusal, Xie Zhan turned straight and left.

Leaving Mingxiu behind him, he opened his mouth to stop him, but in the end he couldn't speak.

Xie Zhan has done many things for her, and it is false to say that he is not moved, but even if he is moved, Mingxiu can't give up the persistence in his heart.

Maybe......

The two of them really don't fit.

Lowering her eyes, Mingxiu gently stroked her dirty back.

As if sensing her mood, the dirty whole cat was very well-behaved, and barked softly, as if to comfort her.

Even though Mingxiu felt a thousand kinds of depression in her heart, it dissipated and became invisible at this time.

Sure enough, kittens are the most healing things.

The gaze softened.

To reward the dirty well-behaved, she plans to make it something delicious.

I heard that there were sheep in the village, so she spent two cents to buy three or four catties of goat milk and came back, there was not much to drink, and most of them were cheaper than Mingxiu's family.

Goat's milk is a good thing, but it's a bit fat.

First made goat milk meat soup for the dirty, Mingxiu planned to make some pastries to eat.

Well, when you're in a bad mood, you should eat something sweet.

Let the dirty go to eat by herself, she rolled up her sleeves and got busy.

Goat milk cake is easy to make, but removing the smell of goat milk itself can't affect the mellow aroma of milk cake, and Mingxiu has put a lot of effort into it.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is because there are no fishy things such as tea and almonds at home, otherwise it would be so difficult to use them.

It wasn't until Ming's mother was about to start cooking that Mingxiu finished it.

"Mother, let's make more and bring it to the stall to sell."

It takes a certain amount of time to get back and forth to the city, and it is certainly not realistic to walk back and forth like this every day, and there is no time to prepare soup at home.

Therefore, they set up stalls once every two days.

It just so happened that the next day to set up a stall happened to be the day when the carpenter's shop opened.

The goods have been moved to the city, and now all it takes is the day after tomorrow to hold the opening ceremony.

The family went together, and there was more labor, and Mingxiu thought that goat milk cake was also a way to make money.

"Okay, yes, but we still have to buy some goat's milk." Ming's mother was a little reluctant, "It's not a rare thing, you have to spend money to buy it, her father, let's raise a sheep next year." ”

Ming's mother has discovered that no matter what the ingredients are, they can always be turned into delicious in Mingxiu's hands.

Anyway, the area of the newly bought house is large enough, and there are more than a few sheets.

"Okay, I'll go to Zhang's house to inquire about it when I turn around and see if their lambs are sold."

Father Ming has no opinion on this, even if the goat milk can't use mutton, can it still be eaten?

Last year, Mingxiu made mutton hot pot, and until now Mingchengyuan is still very greedy.

"That's it."

The family began to prepare to make goat milk cakes.

……

On the day the carpenter's shop opened, it was a market that was crowded with people coming and going.

This shop has a good location, and the people who come and go are shoulder to shoulder.

The opening formation spread out, and it instantly attracted many people.

Originally, it was just a bustle, and no one thought about going into the store to buy something, but I heard that there was a new plow truck inside, and it could be pulled by manpower?!

It's worth it!

Everyone rushed to the store to see what the plows that could be pulled by humans looked like.

Although everyone in the capital is living well, this does not mean that there are fewer people who farm for a living.

The desert people are considered semi-herders, and even so, about 70 percent of them only farm.

Ninety percent of the people in the Southern Dynasty were peasants, which was the data that Mingxiu learned from Xie Zhan's mouth.

With the new farming tools, everyone can farm more easily, and everyone will cultivate more fields, which is a great good thing, and everyone wants to be able to rub a little.

The Ming family's price for the Quyuan plow is not high, 300 yuan a piece, only a little more expensive than the current plow, but it is definitely worth the money.

Although there are many people who see it, there are very few people who actually buy it.

Everyone is still waiting for the person who bought it to use it before deciding whether to buy it or not.

But even so, the inventory that Ming's father had accumulated in half a month was sold out.
