MTL - Hot Farmer’s Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

   Chapter 393 393 Called to Beijing

   But now, his father and Chiwu Army are gone.

   Dayan, how could he not be coveted by Chu and Jin?

   I just didn’t expect that this day would come so quickly.

   Hearing Li Xiao say that he was ready, Lin Xiaoyue felt more at ease.

   "How much food did you prepare? Also, where did the money come from?" Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Xiao again.

   That's not right, she has read both Zhuangzi and the fast-moving account, and didn't find any money.

   However, since the return of the Chiwu Army, Li Xiao did not give her any more money.

   So, did Li Xiao spend his own money to buy the money?

   But he set up a wharf transport team, how much can he earn?

  Li Xiao smiled and wrapped his hands around his daughter-in-law's waist.

   "Don't worry, it's enough for everyone in Zhuangzi to eat for a year."

   "Besides, you can still grow potatoes and sweet potatoes on your village. These can fill our stomachs, and we can't be hungry."

  Lin Xiaoyue was a little surprised.

   "So much food? Did you buy it?" asked.

   Enough for more than 5,000 people to eat for a year, but a lot of food is needed.

   "Well." Li Xiao replied.

   "Where did you get so much money?" Lin Xiaoyue asked. The eyes are still a little fierce.

   Okay, you dare to hide your private money.

  Li Xiao saw his daughter-in-law's expression, and instantly realized that something was wrong.

   hugged his daughter-in-law tighter, focusing on hooping her daughter-in-law's hands.

   "Hehe, I took a few good brothers to buy a stake in a security agency. Also, I built a boat, arranged some people to go up, and took over some business from the nearby pier." Li Xiao said.

  Lin Xiaoyue was surprised.

   "Okay! The confidentiality is well done!" Immediately, he looked at Li Xiao angrily.

   Knowing that she couldn't break free from Li Xiao's imprisonment, she didn't want to waste her time.

  Li Xiao smiled embarrassedly.

   "I thought, I'll tell you when I get some results. But..."

   "It's still your business that's doing well, you're making money every day, I'm..." Li Xiao said, scratching his head embarrassedly. At the same time, Lin Xiaoyue was released.

   He could see that his daughter-in-law was not really angry with him.

   But he didn't tell his daughter-in-law about these things, it's true that he did something wrong.

  Eh, it's not easy for him.

   His daughter-in-law's business is doing so well that he sometimes feels that he is with his daughter-in-law, like eating soft rice.

   It is also for this reason that he wants to make some achievements to prove himself, and at the same time, to reduce some burdens on his wife.

  I didn't expect that the business I did was still incomparable with the business my daughter-in-law did.

  Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao.

   finally lost his anger.

   "What is my business? We are husband and wife, mine is yours! You can discuss anything you want with me."

   "One is short and two are long. I know, maybe I can give you some ideas."

   "The matter of the **** agency and the ship, forget it this time. In the future, don't hide it from me again." Lin Xiaoyue closed her eyes and continued.

  Although I know that my man has no bad intentions, this feeling of being hidden from the other half is still not good.

   "Yes! I promise there will be no next time!" Li Xiao said quickly.

   After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and placed a kiss on Lin Xiaoyue's forehead.

   Lin Xiaoyue squeezed her fist and smashed it on the man.

   After a while, the two continued to talk about the war.

   "Is there any news from the court? Is it resistance or peace?" Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Xiao.

  If Emperor Yan did not ask for peace, after a long time, the combined forces of Chu and Jin would march straight in, and it is entirely possible that they would hit the hinterland of Dayan.

  At that time, not only the people at the border will suffer from war, but even the people in Qingshi Town may be in danger.

   Moreover, the war will not stop, her business will also be greatly affected.

   "We have already asked for peace. Emperor Yan has sent an envoy to the border." Li Xiao said. There was a look of helplessness in his eyes.

   The speed of this summation is fast enough, do you know that Yan State is not the opponent of Chu Jin?

   When his father and the Chiwu Army were there earlier, how could the country of Yan suffer such a loss?

   took the initiative to ask for peace, and then Chu Jin must have a big opening. How much land and food will Yan Kingdom lose this time?

   Lin Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief.

   "It's good to have a truce. The flames of war are ruthless, why are the people so wrong?"

  Li Xiao glanced at his daughter-in-law and nodded.

   He and his daughter-in-law have different starting points for looking at the problem, but agree with the daughter-in-law's point of view.

   "Since Dayan is going to produce food, the food on the market will definitely decrease. Take advantage of this time, should we stock up on more food?" Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Xiao.

   The fast-growing cold cake business is better, so we have cooperation with some powerful grain merchants.

   Others may not have such a doorway, but they do.

  Although the price may be higher, getting another batch of food should not be a problem.

   "Just the right amount. Our food shortage is not big." Li Xiao said.

   "Yes." Lin Xiaoyue replied.

   The couple talked for a while before they left the study together.

   After leaving the study door, Lin Xiaoyue realized that Henry Zhang and Manager Fang did not leave.

   "Use the money in the account to find several grain merchants we cooperate with to see how much grain we can buy." Lin Xiaoyue looked at Director Fang.

   "Yes!" Manager Fang responded quickly.

   "It doesn't matter if the price is higher, try to stock up as much as possible." Lin Xiaoyue added.

   "Yes!" Director Fang saluted again.

  Lin Xiaoyue just left with Li Xiao.

   It's been a long time since I've had a holiday, so today I'm going to get off the morning shift with my husband.

   Three days later.

  Kyoto suddenly came to Kuaima. After entering Qingshi Town, he quickly reached Dashi Village and approached Liu Zhai.

   Immediately, not long after, Kuaima returned to Qingshi Town and went to Liu Mansion.

  Liu House shook up and down.

  Lin Xiaoyue actually received an imperial decree from Kyoto.

   Inexplicably and frightened, he went to the front yard to receive the order.

   After listening to the decree, and the father-in-law who announced the decree, he told the general situation, and Lin Xiaoyue knew what was going on.

  It turns out that more than a year ago, the Liang accountant of Ruyi Building joined the Ministry of Household after returning to Beijing.

   Immediately, with the algorithm she taught, she quickly emerged in the Ministry of Housing.

   Later, he also worshipped under the name of the national teacher and became a disciple of the national teacher.

   Then, Liang Chengcai went even further, and even got the attention of Emperor Yan.

   And this time, the reason why Lin Xiaoyue received the imperial edict was because of Liang Chengcai's recommendation.

  The reason is that the state of Yan asked for peace, and Chu and Jin had agreed, but the terms of the peace talks were extremely harsh.

  In order to show their magnanimity, the two countries of Chu and Jin even sent a mathematician to Dayan Capital, requesting to exchange and compete with the mathematician of Dayan.

   and proposed that if Dayan can defeat the mathematicians sent by the two countries, the conditions of peace talks can be reduced by 30%.

   But if Dayan loses, the conditions must be improved by 30%.

"Mrs. Li, this time, Chu Jin's envoy of arithmetic master is well-known all over the world. Mr. Liang personally recommended his wife to the emperor. Next, Dayan's honor and disgrace are all tied to his wife." A gift.

  Lin Xiaoyue quickly returned the gift.

   "The public speaking is more serious. It is an honor for the women to serve the court. The women should do their best."

The    imperial decree has come, can you do it if you don’t try your best?

  Xuanzhi Gonggong looked better.

   "The lady should pack up as soon as possible, and leave for Beijing with the miscellaneous family tomorrow." Immediately said.

  The Kyoto side is pressing hard, and we have to bring people back as soon as possible. After that, there were other arrangements in Kyoto.

  Lin Xiaoyue was startled.

   "Okay, then please let the father-in-law rest at the mansion for a night. The woman has arranged the house and will leave with the father-in-law tomorrow morning." Immediately said.

  It happened so suddenly, she still had a lot of things to arrange. If nothing else, Li Xiao had to be comforted.

  Unfortunately, there is only more than one night to arrange...

  , it's strange that the eyelids have been twitching for the past two days. What luck is it that such a thing happened...

   "Mrs. Li has been disturbed." Gong Xuan replied.

   "Father-in-law is very polite." Lin Xiaoyue said.

   Immediately called his servants, and took the Duke Xuanzhi and several others to the backyard to rest.

   Lin Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief when Eunuch Xuanzhi and others left.

  It is also fortunate that there are not many Chiwu troops in Liufu now.

  Otherwise, she has to worry about whether she will reveal her stuff.

   "Go and invite Uncle--" Lin Xiaoyue just started speaking, but she stopped.

   "Forget it, I'll go to the pier myself to find him." Then, he went out.

   The father-in-law who announced the decree came from Kyoto, and I don't know if he has seen Li Xiao before.

   In case of encountering someone, he even recognized them. At that time, it will be extravagant.

   "You, go to Manager Fang and tell him not to go back to Liu Mansion today. When you come back, go to Dashi Village to meet me." Lowering her voice, Lin Xiaoyue said to a servant next to her.

  The identity of the director of Fang is also quite special, so it is good to avoid it.

   "Yes!" The servant quickly responded.

  Lin Xiaoyue just left.

  A carriage was already waiting outside Liu Mansion.

  Lin Xiaoyue got on the carriage, let the driver drive the carriage, and went directly to the pier.

   Immediately, after finding Li Xiao, the couple returned to Dashi Village.

   Along the way, Li Xiao kept his face sullen, and finally opened his mouth when he was about to get off the official road.

   "I'm going to Kyoto with you."

  Lin Xiaoyue was surprised.

   "No!" Immediately refused.

   Seeing his man frowning, Lin Xiaoyue said again, "After finally escaping that place of right and wrong, what are you doing back home?"

   "Your face, in case someone recognizes you. At that time, not only you are in danger, but our family, including brothers, will all be in danger."

   For more than half a year, although Li Xiao had been using the scar cream she gave to lighten the hideous scar, but when she didn't cover it up, the scar was still very obvious.

  Li Xiao frowned.

   "I'll disguise myself as a guard by your side," he said.

   Walking together as a daughter-in-law and husband will indeed be very eye-catching.

   But if it's just a guard, it won't be so noticeable.

   "The situation in Kyoto is complicated. If you don't go, I don't worry about you." Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue wanted to refuse, Li Xiao added.

   "Besides - while I'm in Beijing this time, I want to see if I have a chance to rescue my sister."

  Lin Xiaoyue was taken aback.

   "There has been no movement from King Anyang's side for a long time. Maybe we can only rely on ourselves." Li Xiao said solemnly.

  Lin Xiaoyue was silent.

  Li Xiao suddenly grabbed Lin Xiaoyue's hand again.

   "Let me go with you. Otherwise, I'll sneak behind you too."

   Lin Xiaoyue sighed, helplessness flashed in her eyes.

   "Okay. But, after I go, I have to listen to all my actions." He finally said.

   Thinking in a different position, if today, she and Li Xiao exchanged identities, Li Xiao was the one who was enjoined to enter the capital, and if she was asked to wait in Qingshi Town alone, she would not be able to wait.

  When he went to the border to do such a dangerous thing, Li Xiao took her with him.

  This time, she couldn't leave her husband.

   "Yeah!" Li Xiao raised a smile on his face and nodded.

   Lin Xiaoyue clenched Li Xiao's big hand.

   "The mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire, let's face it together as a husband and wife."

   "Okay!" Li Xiao stretched out his hand and took Lin Xiaoyue into his arms.

  The two fearful hearts became steady again.

   Go back to Liu's house.

  Lin Xiaoyue asked someone to call Zhou Shi.

   Just after arranging the pepper workshop, Director Fang arrived.

   The Zhou family was sent away, and Lin Xiaoyue talked to Director Fang about the follow-up arrangements.

   "Master wants to come to Beijing with me. After we leave, the affairs of Zhuangzi, as well as the workshops of Zhuangzi, are all up to you." Lin Xiaoyue said.

   Director Fang immediately looked at Li Xiao.

   Seeing Li Xiao's expressionless expression, Director Fang bowed and took his life.

"Yes!"

  Lin Xiaoyue followed and glanced at Li Xiao.

   Then he looked at Director Fang again.

   "For this trip, let Fan Teng and Shanshan also come to Beijing with us. On Henry Zhang's side, Xianggong has other arrangements."

   "Besides, after we leave, try to keep a low profile. In case—" Lin Xiaoyue paused.

   "Prepare the evacuation plan in advance. In case we can't come back, protect my mother."

  This trip to Kyoto is extremely dangerous.

  The time is too tight, and many things cannot be arranged comprehensively.

  If they encounter danger in Kyoto and their identities are exposed, the people in Qingshi Town will be in danger.

  The incident happened suddenly, and we will start tomorrow.

   She can only entrust the affairs of the family to Director Fang.

   Fang's manager's face was heavy.

   "Yes!" Bowed to take orders.

   Later, Li Xiao also explained something to Director Fang before letting Director Fang leave.

After Director Fang left, Fan Teng and Zhao Shanshan were able to see Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao.

  Lin Xiaoyue explained the situation, and the two went down to pack their luggage after listening to the instructions.

   "Let's go, go see your mother." Lin Xiaoyue didn't get up from the chair until the two left.

  This trip, I don't know how long it will take, and the mother needs to be appeased.

   "Well." Li Xiao responded.

  The backyard of Liu's house.

   Liu Shi kept wiping away tears after hearing Lin Xiaoyue's words.

   "How could such a big thing fall on you, a little girl?"

   "Let's leave tomorrow, so urgent!"

   Liu Shi said, and was about to get up from the chair.

   "No, I have to go with you!"

  Lin Xiaoyue quickly stepped forward and pressed Liu Shi back to the chair.

   "Mother--" she shouted coquettishly and grabbed Liu's arm.

   "I was just called to Beijing to help the court. I'll be back when I'm done. I'll be fine."

   "Besides, the Xiang guild will go with me. With him, who can bully me?" After saying that, Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao.

  Li Xiao quickly nodded at Liu Shi.

   "Don't worry, mother, with me, Yue'er will be fine!"

   Liu's complexion is now better.

   "But..." Still a little worried.

  Kyoto, that place is not very peaceful.

  In the beginning, she escaped from that place...

   Thinking of the past, a flash of fear flashed in Liu Shi's eyes, and then he quickly stopped to think about it.

  Lin Xiaoyue didn't notice it.
