Besides, I still teach for half a day and take care of a meal. Where can I find such a good job.

In this way, Fengyun and Yunfeng can free up their hands to concentrate on studying and practicing martial arts, and Feng'er is arranged by Qiao Mai to farm in the backyard. The little lovers can finally see each other every day.

The old man was very happy during this time. He successively cultivated the Jinshi from the Yuan family, the two scholars from Fengyun, and the scholar Chuan'er. His old face felt particularly radiant.

For a while, the Qiao family stole the limelight in the Acropolis.

It's not that they came up with it, but they had to. The whole family is full of promising people.

All the big aristocratic families focused on the Qiao family and tried their best to marry the Qiao family. They thought that the Qiao family had good geomantic omen and raised people. The Yuan family was just thirty, and even the fifth-rank county magistrate, his son was no different.

At this moment, urgent reports came from the two border gates on the west and south, and foreign enemies invaded again, and 200,000 soldiers and horses were assembled, watching eagerly outside the gate.

Brother Fengyun couldn't sit still anymore, they came to find Qiao Mai together.

"Mother, my son has practiced martial arts hard and wants to show off his ambitions on the battlefield. I beg my mother to make it happen."

Qiao Mai looked at the two adopted sons, "I teach you martial arts, one is to strengthen your body, and the other is to serve the country. Now that heroes have a place to use their skills, mother will not stop you, go to the county government to sign up for the army Bar."

"Yes, mother"

The two packed their bags, took the pills and amulets that Qiao Mai had prepared for them, and went to the county government office in Yi County to sign up.

There are really too few people like them who voluntarily sign up to join the army, and many of them are sent by officials to lead people from various households. Magistrate Zhu was shocked when he knew it.

My mother, two people want to be soldiers, how can I do this, how can I sign up?

He hurriedly sent someone to Qiao's house to ask Mrs. Qiao for instructions. Seeing that Qiao's family agreed, County Magistrate Zhu was overwhelmed.

It is unprecedented to raise a person to serve as a soldier. What should we do?

He hurriedly sent someone to ask Wang Zongsheng for instructions. He also felt incredible about it. After another scientific examination, he could enter the court as an official. The future of the two children is bright, so why should they sign up for the army?

He asked Magistrate Zhu to register the two of them first, arrange a place to live, and then went to Qiao's house in person.

"Miss Qiao, what about the child's registration?"

"I agree. They are full of martial arts and want to serve the country by killing enemies on the battlefield. How can I, a mother, stop them."

"But a sword has no eyes on the battlefield."

"They have learned martial arts from me for nearly ten years. If they can't protect themselves on the battlefield, how can they make meritorious deeds? Don't worry, I know it well."

"All right, then when the time is up, I will send someone to send them to the border."

"Um"

When Miss Mu knew that Feng'er was going to be a soldier, she cried and chased her to the county yamen. In her capacity, no one dared to stop her.

She looked at Yunfeng with tears in her eyes, "Why are you so stupid, what kind of soldier are you?"

"My brother and I are not expected to study, although we did well in the exam this time, we know that we have tried our best. If we wait for Jinshi, we don't know the year of the monkey. It just so happens that the country is in trouble, and everyone is responsible. Yun'er and I are martial arts , Serving the country is the right thing to do, besides, your family is the family of generals, I think I can marry you as a general in the future."

"My family didn't look down on you"

"Father-in-law is very nice, I want to win an honor for you."

He didn't mention Mrs. Duke, even though she was lying on the bed, she still looks down on this future son-in-law even now.

The more she behaved like this, the more Feng'er held her breath, and she had to rely on her own ability to win Miss Mu back. By then, it would be much easier for the two to get engaged, and people in the capital would not laugh at her. .

"you are silly!"

"As a man, this is what I should do. My brother and I have wanted to be soldiers for a long time. We are envious to see our father-in-law leading soldiers to fight. I hope that one day, our brothers and sisters can be like my father-in-law. Fortunately, my mother It also taught us the art of war, and it is the most correct way to apply what you have learned.”

"I, I'm waiting at home for your triumphant return"

"Don't worry, we will definitely protect ourselves and never let you wait at home."

"Uh-huh"

Yun'er pursed his lips on one side, watching his eldest brother and sister-in-law showing affection, his teeth were almost sore, and his teeth were so sore from being so far away that they almost fell out.

At the end of May, the two brothers went to the border, and Qiao Mai often looked at the moon alone at night in a daze.

As soon as she sent the two brothers away, rumors spread in Tianshui Town, saying that Qiao Mai was a adoptive mother after all, and she didn't treat the two children sincerely. The child is going to die.

Qiao Mai was not angry when he heard these words. It was probably because of Brother Fengyun's former clansmen that such words could be spread.

They didn't benefit from her, and this time they were slapped again, and she could understand if they wanted to express their anger.

I can't eat meat, I'm in a hurry, ha ha!

Whatever they say, Jixiang Garden has been very quiet, but Yuan Jiaqi's busy side made him dizzy.

A safflower oil workshop, a shampoo workshop, and a varnish workshop opened three workshops at once. Because they deal with oil, men who smoke like that are not wanted.

There are 20 people in charge of each workshop, and there are hundreds of people who cut pine oil.

Apart from being busy with these things, he is also busy with wheat, which was planted in March, and now it is June, and it will mature in three months.

The people in She County are waiting eagerly. If it works, they won't have to worry about food in the future.

This month, he sent all the officials under his command to protect Maizi.

Compared with the workshop, he paid more attention to the matter of wheat seeding.

Apart from trying cases, he went to the workshop every day, and wandered around the wheat fields in the rest of the time.

Looking at the heavy ears of wheat, he was grinning even in his dreams.

For this, he felt that the yield per mu could not be lowered.

Not only did he go to the wheat field to see it, but many people watched it from afar. This is the hope of the people of She County.

For this reason, he didn't go home for two months, and Qiu Mai didn't go to see it. If something happened, he would have come back to find her, so she didn't worry about it.

At the end of June, the experimental field was finally ready to be harvested. Yuan Jiaqi personally watched the field, and the officials went to harvest it in person.

He first harvested an acre of land, threshed and weighed it on the spot. Although the wheat was not completely dry, it was not too far off. He personally supervised the scale, and then reported it to the onlookers.

"A new type of wheat, nine hundred and sixty-five catties, yield per mu,"

"My God, it's so high"

The Yuan family was afraid that it would be inaccurate once, so they sent someone to take another piece of mu, but the results were quite different.

The people cheered, "My lord, can we follow suit?"

"Of course. In the future, in Shexian County, we can plant two crops of grain a year. The previous crop will be planted in spring, and the next crop will be planted in July. The new wheat will mature in three and a half months. We will have enough grain without planting winter wheat."

"Oh, that would be great,"

"If you want to have a high yield of wheat, you must know how to raise the land, not just fertilize it. Later, I will distribute a copy of the book on raising the land to every village. You must learn it. After learning, not only will the wheat not grow worms, but it will also produce high yields."

The common people all knelt on the ground with a clatter, "Thank you sir, thank you sir, you are a good official, you are an upright official"

"Well, if you want to grow a new type of wheat, you can take your household registration. After the notice is issued by the yamen in a few days, each family will go to the yamen to get 20 catties. If there is more, you will not wait after the expiration date."

"Ai, ai!"

They were so excited that they wiped away their tears and left. The Yuan family asked people to harvest the wheat from the 50 mu experimental field.

Then let people raise the land for ten days, and planted another batch of wheat seeds.

The rest were sealed in the yamen as seeds. This is not public property, but his personal property. He wrote a detailed memorial of this harvest, and then quickly sent it to Wang Zhifu.

After Wang Zongsheng read it, he sent his cronies to rush to the capital.
