During the lean years, I relied on space to pamper my husband and raise my children.

Shen Qianning was also a little emotional.

"They should all be getting married. I helped them a little back then. I didn't expect that things have changed so much over the years. This time, I didn't return to Qucheng until Wang Mazi got married."

Uncle Xiao calculated that the time seemed to be short.

"Do you want to go see your new house?"

Of course Shen Qianning wanted to go and see it.

So I went to the new house with Uncle Xiao.

Houses have been built and walls repaired.

There are some common flowers planted in the flower beds in the yard.

The floor tiles have not been laid yet.

The hired craftsmen are working hard.

The craftsmen greeted Shen Qianning one after another when they saw him.

They were really lucky to have a good employer like Shen Qianning, who didn't bother much about their work and paid them very high wages.

Most importantly, wages are never in arrears and are paid on time.

I won’t always be on the sidelines and begrudge my failure to do this or that.

In fact, when they meet such an employer, they will happily try their best to do a good job.

No matter what, I can't let my boss down.

Shen Qianning responded one by one.

She walked around for a while and said: "Everyone has worked hard, and everyone is tired during this period. Let's do it today. I will give each of you [-] cents. You can buy two kilograms of wine when you go back."

She directly took out her purse, gave it to Old Man Xiao, and asked Old Man Xiao to give him the money.

The craftsmen were very happy.

After taking the money, they were reluctant to leave. Instead, they all stayed and continued working.

Shen Qianning returned to his yard.

Uncle Xiao gave all the money and caught up with Shen Qianning and said, "Everyone is reluctant to leave!"

He felt that Shen Qianning was right to do this.

Twenty pennies per person is not much.

But it can win people's hearts and make everyone do things better.

Shen Qianning smiled and said: "Let them go! By the way, let's plant all the vegetables in the field!"

She hasn't come back during this time, and it's already past spring plowing.

But Wang Mazi and the others were asked to come back with a message.

Last year they all saved their own seeds.

Even crops such as red potatoes were hidden in the cellar by Qinglin and the others.

Everyone is good at growing crops.

There was no need for her to tell her, everyone knew what to do.

Uncle Xiao said with a smile: "They are all planted. Don't worry, everyone knows that you are very busy and have a lot of things to do. Everyone is vying to do things. If you are worried, you can go and have a look in the fields."

Shen Qianning wanted to go to the fields to take a look, but not now.

When she left, she left the key with Uncle Xiao, so the house was clean.

"Qiu Shui comes back every three or four days to clean the house. I'm afraid you might come back and make the house dirty at any time. I heard that Feiye took Xiao Ji and the others to the imperial city?"

He was also very happy when he heard the news.

The Xiao family has never produced any high-ranking officials or rich people for generations.

For dozens of generations, they were all ordinary farmers.

But I didn't expect that there would be changes in Xiao Ji's generation.

How many generals can they get from Niwo Village?

Nowadays, no one can go out and praise Niwo Village.

There are many girls outside who are inquiring about Niwo Village and want to marry their own girls into it.

Niwo Village has also changed from the poorest village to the richest village.

When he thinks that his silly son is now a seventh-grade military general, he feels happy in his heart.

Shen Qianning expressed his suspicion: "They went to the imperial city to receive rewards. In fact, there were signs of this incident before. The emperor sent Feiye and the others to suppress the bandits because he wanted them to make further contributions. I guess Feiye should be able to serve as an official. If you worship the second rank, as for other brothers, their official positions must also be mentioned earlier."

Uncle Xiao smiled particularly brightly.

"Good good!"

Saying "yes" three times in a row is enough to show how old Mr. Xiao is feeling at the moment.

Old Uncle Xiao smiled kindly: "The ancestors of the Xiao family are blessed! Fei Ye is well done. It would be great if he could be promoted to the second rank. He would be a great general!"

When Shen Qianning thought of this, she felt very happy.

"He is considered a general, not a great general. According to Beiliang's official positions, the first rank is a great general."

Even so, she was very happy for Xiao Feiye.

Although she also knew that Xiao Feiye didn't really want to be an official.

But these are all obtained by Xiao Feiye's hard work.

This is worthy of congratulations.

Old Uncle Xiao was very happy and said with satisfaction: "That's enough, that's enough. It's not very good to be able to become a second-rank official. You still have to be content as a person. Fei Ye is still young and can take his time."

After saying that, he thought of something and asked: "Will your imperial edict be granted a first-class title?"

He was thinking that if Shen Qianning was granted a first-class title, no one would bully Shen Qianning in the future.

Shen Qianning shook his head, saying that he didn't know.

"Everything depends on the emperor's decision! But I don't really care about this."

Old man Xiao didn't say anything anymore.

Shen Qianning went to Xingfu Village the next day.

Qinglin is planting red potatoes in Xingfu Village.

Red potato is first planted in the ground, and the vines that grow are used for cuttings.

As for pumpkins, Qinglin chose the method of raising seedlings first and then planting them.

She also rented the land in Qingtian Village, and now the three villages are planting what she needs.

Magistrate Sun told her last time that the court still needed these things.

Let her have more varieties here.

As for the government, she still owes her a large sum of money.

But she is not in a hurry. If the court has something to offer, she is not afraid of being repudiated.

Moreover, Magistrate Sun had mentioned to her before that the court was also very nervous recently.

When Qinglin saw Shen Qianning coming back, his attitude was the same as that of Mr. Xiao.

First he complained: "People who don't know think I am the owner here! You said you left for more than three months and didn't care about the land or building the house. Where can I find people like you?"

Shen Qianning was not angry and listened patiently to Qinglin's complaints.

There was even a smile on his face.

The more Qinglin talked, the more helpless he became.

"Forget it, forget it, you tell me what I did to get angry with you, I did it willingly, and I can't blame you."

Shen Qianning smiled even brighter and comforted: "Okay, okay, I was wrong this time. I was also caught up in something and couldn't help it. You also know that I went to the border of Yun State and met someone else when I came back. It's nothing, I thought about it since you and Mr. Xiao were in the village, and everyone was helping me, so I didn't care."

She completely believes everyone.

In fact, Shen Qianning really felt like he was the hands-off shopkeeper.

It seems like just waiting to collect money all year round.

Over at the restaurant, she just had to bring various condiments to Wang Mazi and the others.

The dishes were also delivered by people from Huwei Escort Agency.

There is Qinglin in Xingfu Village and Old Man Xiao in Niwo Village.

Even the escort agency has Wang Mazi and the others to worry about.

There are also Xiao Dongsheng and the others in Baibao Pavilion.

She really didn't seem busy or tired.

But she has endless things to do every day.

Even she herself couldn't explain why she had so much to do.

Qinglin invited Shen Qianning into the guest room.

Wei Peng and Xu Yang came out to say hello.

When Shen Qianning entered the room, Qinglin poured a cup of tea directly for Shen Qianning.
