Of course, Mai Liu wants to go to the villa to live for a while, and unlike her daughter-in-law, she has no plans to retire at her second son's house. No matter how good Zhuangzi is, it was earned by her granddaughter, can she give half to herself? After tossing so many times and getting nothing, seeing that the child's wings are getting harder and harder, it is impossible for him to bargain for anything.

If you can enjoy a period of time and see the world, you will be content.

What can Mai Wan say, although the silver given to the old lady is increasing year by year, his filial piety is decreasing year by year, and he can't come back once in half a year when he is busy.

This time, I took her old man back, so that the old lady who had worked hard for most of her life could also live a life of a rich person who went out with a carriage to pick her up and a maid to support her when she entered the door.

Wu was satisfied, and finally sent her mother-in-law out, and went to the second child's house to live a comfortable life, she must not go back to Shaxi Village, and the house and land in her mother-in-law's name can belong to her own family.

Mai Xiaoling on the side shook Wu's arm, she wanted to follow her grandmother, in case she met the handsome son last time! I think of him all the time! Compared with him, other men are ugly, and after seeing that son, Mai Xiaoling can no longer forget his voice and smile.

The men introduced by his father and mother can't even compare to his fingernails, if God can send himself to his side, even if he is a nameless maid, he is willing. If you want to see that son again, you can only get close to your cousin Mai Xiaohuan, even if you have a thousand or ten thousand dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction with this cousin in your heart, you have to hide, if you want to see the handsome son, getting close to her is the only feasible way.

"The second sister-in-law, Xiaofang and Xiaohuan are okay!" Qiao seemed concerned.

mentioned a few of these mothers, Mai Liu snorted coldly, one by one became more and more unruly, and he did not come back for the New Year.

After looking down and thinking for a while, Mai Wang felt that he should explain to them so as not to misunderstand: "Xiao Huanniang was injured a little a year ago, and the two girls took turns to serve, they didn't mean to be lazy." ”

My daughter-in-law is sick, so can I go? Mai Liu's heart retreated, the relationship between the mother and himself was not very good, and in this case, he couldn't take care of himself, and no one took care of him when he went to the villa, it was too embarrassing!

"Is McWan there? You're all here! Happy New Year, sister-in-law! Walking in from the outside was Pan Mingqiu, the village chief with a smile on his face.

The Mai family collectively stood up to greet them, and Mai Wang went over to pour tea in person, Pan Mingqiu nodded with satisfaction, the second child of the Mai family is good, and he didn't forget his roots because of wealth: "I won't go around in circles, Mai Wang!" When I went to the county a few years ago, the county magistrate asked me to help ask when I saw you and Xiao Huan, there are more than a dozen county magistrates in Qingcheng County who want to go to your mountain villa to learn farming techniques, I don't know if it is inconvenient for you. ”

"It's convenient, but I'm afraid that the hospitality will not be good, Xiao Huanniang sprained her waist a few years ago, and now she is still lying in bed, the two children are young after all, in case there is anything inconsiderate, please bear more."

That Shan Cuihua was really sick, and Wu thought that Mai Wan didn't want to pick up his mother-in-law to say that deliberately! Who will curse their own family during the Chinese New Year! It seems that Shan Cuihua is really sick...... That's great.

The village chief and Mai Wang discussed some details and said goodbye, estimating that the village chief walked out of the yard, Mai Liu's changed his hexagram, saying that he would not go with his son, more than a dozen county orders, and his heart trembled when he thought about it, and he didn't go, he resolutely didn't go.

So what's the matter, if my mother-in-law doesn't leave, won't my plan be ruined? Wu hurriedly went over to persuade him, and after all the good things were said, Mai Liu's reaction was only one, and he kept shaking his head.

"If my mother thinks that there are too many guests in the villa this time, then it will be okay to go after a while, and when Xiao Huanniang is better, we will come back." Xiaofang wants to get married, of course, she has to go back to Shaxi Village to prepare, this is her own roots, her own home, and her relatives are here, so she can't quietly give her daughter's relatives outside, in that case, what if she gets married in the future? Won't you come back?

The two of them had already discussed, and such a major matter had to go back to Shaxi Village to do it.

"What are you doing here?" The Wu family likes to inquire about the short affairs of the east and west families the most, and they will chase after the slightest gossip when they smell the slightest gossip.

"It's a good thing, but I can't say it right now." Mai Wang left a suspense and got up to say goodbye to his family, he didn't worry that his daughter-in-law and two daughters were in the villa, and besides, it was a big deal for the county to visit, so he hurried back and told Xiao Huan to let her prepare early.

Wu is so angry! Isn't the second child sincerely appetizing? What a good thing, what a good thing! She couldn't wait to chase McWan to the villa to find out.

This year, Qu Mansion is also very lively, the whole family is reunited, and the children and grandchildren who are officials in other places have also returned, and the biggest good news is that the emperor will summon Qu Hao at the first court meeting after the year, which is really exciting good news.

Qu Zhiyi repeatedly told his son to prepare well, and carefully sort out the methods of improving the land in Qingcheng County, especially Tongbei County and Mai Xiaohuan, and the emperor must answer the questions fluently.

"If only Xiao Huan could come." Qu Hao especially hopes that Mai Xiaohuan can share this joy with him, because she is the biggest hero in this matter.

Qu Zhiyi shook his head, Xiao Huan still didn't enter Beijing, when the emperor went to the suburbs of Beijing to inspect, he was fortunate to accompany him, everything was going well, but when he returned, he suddenly encountered a beast. When he was escorting, the prince of Chen was injured, and when the emperor wanted to reward him later, he actually made a request, asking not to canonize himself as a princess within two years.

To say that this matter has nothing to do with Xiao Huan, Qu Zhiyi will never believe it, the question is that even if Zhou Yue is a little sincere to Xiao Huan, so what, does he have a way to make the emperor, the queen mother, and King Chen accept a royal daughter-in-law with Xiao Huan's identity? It's almost impossible.

In order to avoid Xiao Huan being hurt, the best way is to avoid the two of them from meeting, and it is best to have nothing to do with it from now on.

"What should the emperor do if he wants to reward Xiao Huan? Sons can't take credit for it! ”

"I'm not afraid of this, the prince of King Chen has no official position now, and he can't walk in the court, if the emperor has a reward for Xiao Huan, you can help lead it, in case the emperor asks to see Xiao Huan, let's say that she is a country child who has never seen the world, for fear of disturbing the holy drive."

It seems that this is the only way to go.

At the first court meeting after the year, when Qu Hao saw Zhou Yue standing in the prince's pile in the main hall, his footsteps stopped, didn't his father say that he didn't go to court? What the hell have you seen!

Qu Zhiyi whispered to remind his son to hurry up and see the emperor, Zhou Yue would appear here, he was also surprised, and he had no right to blow him away, so he could only improvise.

"Qu Aiqing, your son is not simple! Back then, I admired his literary brilliance very much and wanted to keep him in the Hanlin Academy, but this stubborn boy didn't ask to be a magistrate. I found him the poorest place, but I didn't expect him to really make achievements, not bad. ”

Dare to love that his son would be assigned to Tongbei County as a county magistrate, and there was such an inside story, the father and son looked at each other with tears and laughter, waiting for the emperor's next words.

"Sirui is a vast area, with a large population, countless fertile land, but also a lot of barren land. Unfortunately, for many years, there has been no effective way to improve the current state of the land and make it work to the fullest. Now that the Quxian Order has solved this problem, I must reward you well today, say it! What you want. ”

Zhou Yue looked at Qu Hao in astonishment, it was obviously ...... to transform the land The credit of the bad girl, is Qu Hao embarrassed to accept the reward? If that's the case, I feel unfair for the bad girl, and I will never let their father and son take the lead.

"The emperor's reward, Weichen didn't dare to accept it, and he didn't hide it from the emperor, and the solution to transform the problem of land desertification was not something that Weichen came up with."

"Oh! Who's that? Did you bring people here? I want to see you. ”

"She is Weichen's sister-in-law, a little girl from the countryside who has never been far away, she has never seen the world, and she is afraid of disturbing the holy car, so she ......"

"Little girl...... Such a capable little girl, I really want to get to know her, I will appoint officials to do this with you, with Tongbei County in Qingcheng County as a demonstration area, if it results this autumn, I must bring people to me, and I must reward her well. ”

Yes! Why didn't I think that when the little bad accepted the reward, he begged the emperor's uncle, maybe the two of them would have hope to be together!

The problem that has been bothering her is finally hopefully solved, Zhou Yue really wants to go to see Mai Xiaohuan now, and tell her that she has never thought of giving up, and has been thinking of a way to be with her in the future.

Back in the courtyard, Zhou Yue asked Xiaoquanzi to prepare, and he was going out on horseback.

Shizi travels by car most of the time, so why do you still want to ride a horse! But it's rare to see the prince so happy, Xiaoquanzi happily went down to prepare.

After everything was ready, Zhou Yue was not in a hurry to set off, he didn't want to run into Qu Hao, or he found himself looking for Mai Xiaohuan. The attitude of the Qu family's father and son is obvious, and they don't want to have anything to do with that girl at all.

Will I get what they want? Since the position is different, just avoid it, if there is a reason for Zhengda Guangming and the bad girl to be together, do you want to let yourself accompany her to farm together, this is ...... It's too embarrassing! Maybe I can find a better way, and I can't do it without dealing with those dirty things, but I can't help it...... Ay! Why is it so hard to chase a girl!

He postponed the departure date for a few days, dealt with some affairs in the villa, and helped the emperor on a few errands. When they set off from the capital, they were already a month behind Qu Hao, and the Mai family also returned to Shaxi Village at this time to prepare for the upcoming marriage ceremony of Tang Yujun and Mai Xiaofang.
