Chapter 337 People need face, trees need skin

"In the inn, the journey went smoothly without any problems. There are hundreds of thousands of people affected by the disaster in the two counties, and each family has been given food and money. I have also made arrangements for some low-lying places. I suffer from disasters every year, and I still live there every year, this time I will do it more thoroughly."

"You did very well."

"My husband also learned from Tianshui Town, and had people dig ditches and big pits, and drain all the water into the pits."

"For those places that are prone to floods, it is best to dig some rivers on both sides, leading directly to the north and south rivers. This will solve the problem more thoroughly."

"Miss, if we have the opportunity, how about we take a boat tour around the north-south river? I heard that in the past two years, there is no shortage of water in the north, and fish and shrimps have been raised in many places."

"Well, there is a chance. Now is not the time. When the son marries a wife and the daughter marries someone, we will talk about it then."

The two were talking, when the voice of Miss Sun came from behind.

"My lord, what a coincidence."

The couple looked at each other with helpless expressions at the same time. They didn't even turn around and continued walking.

Miss Sun and the two girls ran forward panting and stopped in front of them.

"Prince, Princess!"

After saluting, Qiao Mai looked at her.

"A girl's house, she doesn't go home after dark, but she still hangs out?"

"Reporting to the princess, it's the first time that the princess came to us, and my father said that I should fulfill the friendship of the landlord on his behalf!"

"No need, my husband and I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I want to go for a walk alone, so please don't bother us, Miss Sun."

It was too straightforward, and it choked this girl Sun again.

The couple passed Miss Sun and walked straight forward. Miss Sun burst into tears. Here, she has never been wronged like this.

"My lord, he glanced at me just now, why didn't he show obsessive eyes like other men?"

"Miss, the prince is in the capital, so he should meet a lot of girls, right?"

"I don't believe there are so many beauties in the capital. I'm going to the capital. I want to follow the prince to the capital."

"Miss, don't cry, isn't your aunt married to the capital? Can we use the pretext of visiting your aunt to visit the capital?"

"Hmph, what's so good about her, she looks like a village woman, I don't know why such a good prince likes her?"

Back to the guest room where Yuan’s family lived in the inn, he was about to light candles, when Qiao Mai waved his hand, and two things appeared on the table.

"Lady, what are you?"

"There is no need to light wax, that light is weak, use this instead."

She found two places, hung two things high up, and then pressed the button, almost blinding Yuan Jiaqi's eyes.

"What's this?"

"This is called a solar lamp stick, and it should be covered with an object, otherwise it will be more dazzling."

"Is it absorbing the light energy of the sun?"

"yes."

"It's so bright in the room, I can see everything clearly."

Qiao Mai looked at the facilities in the house, "This room is really trendy, and the bed is so small, how can I sleep?"

"It's not too young, the lady is used to sleeping on the big kang, this is the upper room, it's more than enough for the two of you to sleep."

She immediately put an enchantment around the room, pasted a moisture-repelling talisman on the door of the room, placed some fruits on the table, and watched him wet all over.

With a wave of his hand, a large bathtub appeared on the ground, which was full of clear water, and seemed to emit some kind of gas.

"Your husband has worked hard, why don't you take a bath?"

Although he was used to seeing this sudden scene, Yuan Jiaqi was still taken aback.

"Go in and make bubbles. You will definitely be refreshed tomorrow morning."

Yuan Jiaqi blushed, usually he was the one who waited on the lady to take a bath, now it was his turn, and he felt a little embarrassed.

Qiao Mai undressed him and let him sit in the bathtub, Yuan Jiaqi hummed comfortably.

"My lady, is there any medicine in it?"

"There are some."

"No wonder, I feel comfortable all over."

Qiao Mai handed him a banana, and peeled one himself.

"Lady, shall I go to the Yamen with my husband tomorrow?"

"I cooked for you at noon and sent it to you, and shall we have dinner at the restaurant at night?"

"Hey, it's nice to have a lady here."

Not long after speaking, a certain man fell asleep in the tub. Qiao Mai dried him, put him on the bed, cleaned up the room, and lay beside him.

The room was already very dry at this time, she took out a sheet from the space and put it on his stomach.

Looking at Xianggong's sleeping face, she is not there, and he must not even be able to sleep well. Only when she is by his side or at home, can he go to sleep with peace of mind.

The next day, when Yuan Jiaqi opened his eyes, he saw his favorite breakfast on the table opposite the bed.

"Are you awake?"

"The lady prepared breakfast?"

"You are from the north. You must not be used to eating breakfast in the south. I borrowed someone's kitchen to make it. Get up and eat."

Putting clean clothes on beside the bed, Yuan Jiaqi stretched comfortably.

After washing and sitting at the table, the couple had breakfast, and Yuan Jiaqi looked at a basket of sesame seed cakes with meat.

"Is this for them?"

"Well, your subordinates have worked very hard to follow you, and you can feed them with it."

"Thank you lady!"

Yuan Jiaqi covered the basket with a cloth, carried it and left, Qiao Mai closed the door, sat cross-legged on the kang, and followed him mentally.

Several subordinates were waiting outside the inn, and when they saw him carrying a basket, they immediately swarmed up.

"My lord, my lord, did the princess give it to us?"

"It's cheap for you, work hard when you're full."

"Thank you, my lord!"

Each of them held a biscuit in their hand and devoured it hungrily.

"The concubine's craftsmanship is really good. The sesame seed cakes are delicious to eat with meat, which is not available in the south."

"You can't stop your mouths even if you eat."

"My lord, I'll take you to the yamen."

Hearing this voice, the Yuan family became annoyed. He looked at the shy girl Sun indifferently.

"People need face, trees need skin. This king hates you very much. I hope you will not appear in front of this king in the future."

"My lord, how can you say such heartless words?"

Hearing this, a certain woman was heartbroken. In front of so many people, he didn't give her any face.

"This king will tell you again, this king has a wife, and this king will not take concubines. Whether you really like it or want to climb high, this king has no intentions of you. Please stay at home and be yourself." what should be done."

"My lord!"

"If you pester me again, don't blame me for being rude."

"What is she better than me?"

"You are not worthy to compare with my wife, and you are not worthy to carry her shoes."

Several subordinates wanted to laugh, but they watched the county magistrate's daughter pestering the prince every day, but the prince didn't even give him a straight look.

Even so, she didn't give up, she was as thick-skinned as a city wall.

Regardless of whether she was sad or not, Yuan Jiaqi took people to the Yamen, and when he saw County Magistrate Sun, he immediately scolded her.

"Take care of your daughter. If my wife is angry because of her entanglement, then don't blame me for being rude."

The magistrate's face was pale, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly saluted and apologized, "Yes, yes, the officer must discipline her well."

When Miss Sun chased her to the yamen, she was gagged by the yamen servant before she could speak.

Finally, there was one less fly in front of him, and he felt that his work was much easier.

Qiao Mai withdrew his energy, with a smile on his lips, thinking about what to cook for Xianggong and his subordinates at noon.

That is simple, delicious, and easy.

At this time, the capital was as lively as New Year’s Eve. It turned out that the neighboring country handed over the credentials to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and they sent envoys here, hoping to marry and promote the friendship between the countries.

During the days when Qiao Mai left, the envoys arrived in the capital one after another.

At this moment, many foreign envoys in strange costumes appeared on the street, and the common people looked at them with resentful eyes.

Smell shameless, just after the war, a group of defeated generals have the nerve to marry, who gave them the courage, come on, fight another battle.
