C24 She Is the Widow of a Sergeant?
Qian Duoduo saw that Gu Manli didn't understand, so he just told Gu Manli what he thought.
Gu Meili occasionally nodded and occasionally stared at the woman who still knew a lot.
He didn't understand much about farming anyway, it sounded like he understood it very well, so he shouldn't be wrong.
"Therefore, right now we need the prince to send a few workers to dig up the land."
"Alright, just wait."
Gu Huan Li habitually stretched out his hand, preparing to drink the tea, but just as he was about to extend his hand, he realized something. Where did the tea come from? It's hard to drink in a broken house.
It seemed that it was time to tidy up this crappy house.
"Wait?"
"Yes."
Gu Meili didn't like to talk too much nonsense, and she didn't want to hear this woman flatter him by standing up and walking around the room.
Yuanbao nibbled on the steamed bun in his hand, his eyes like black grapes as they followed Gu Maoli around.
"Why are you staring at This King?"
He had felt the child's gaze on him, but he hadn't moved at all. From the start, he had thought this child worshipped him, but staring at him like that made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
Hearing Gu Maoli speak, Qian Duoduo hurriedly put the sword in his hand to protect himself.
"Your Highness, it's beautiful."
With that said, the ingot went into Qian Duoduo's chest.
Hearing this little kid praise him, Gu Manli puffed out his chest, looking at Qian Duoduo narcissistically.
Even a child has a better eye than this woman.
Qian Duoduo rubbed the treasure in his hand as he looked at the man in front of him with an arrogant expression.
Not long after that, Xuan Ji returned with a few laborers, and gave Qian Duoduo quite a few writable papers.
"Thank you, Your Highness.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Qian Duoduo held the paper in his hands and expressed his gratitude. This paper had to be left behind for her to use slowly. Even after using it, she could still recycle the paper.
"The workers have arrived. What are you going to do now?"
Qian Duoduo circled around the workers. All of them should be experienced workers. All of them came with hoes and if they had any experience, they would flip the floor.
"Follow me."
Qian Duoduo waved at the workers, signaling for them to follow. He himself walked in front, holding the ingot, while Gu Shenwei followed in big strides behind Qian Duoduo.
If Gu Yangli had eyes behind his back, he would have been able to see Qian Duoduo roll his eyes.
"Mother, are we going to plant a mountain?"
Yuanbao had only seen his mother dig the soil at the back of the house to grow wild herbs and herbs. He had never seen such a large mountain before, so he felt it was rather strange.
"We are going to cultivate in the wilderness."
"What do you mean by plowing in the wilderness?"
"It's fine as long as we plow through the wasteland, but if we reclaim the barren hills without any other races, we can grow more grain. When the grains grow, there will be no need to worry about the ingots having nothing to eat."
When she had first arrived, the child's appearance must have made him scared. It was easier for him to understand how she explained things to him.
When they arrived at the top of the mountain and saw the vast expanse of mountain range, the workers all revealed astonished expressions.
"Such a big land!"
From what they knew, having such a large plot of land, it was already an incredible feat for him to have the size of a palm.
"This mountain is yours from now on! Do your best, there will be great benefits in the future! "
Qian Duoduo stood in front of them and told them a long series of great blueprints of the land, and drew a big round cake for them.
"Yes, in the future, this land will belong to you." Yes, in the future, this land will belong to you, and you will have more capable people. Captain Qian will come over to supervise you every day, and he will cultivate for eight hours every day.
Gu Maoli followed up on Qian Duoduo's words.
"Captain Qian?" Qian Duoduo found this name rather strange.
"However, eight hours a day is already quite tiring. I don't recommend working overtime."
He needed her to supervise the overtime work, so if these people took turns working overtime, then he wouldn't need to rest.
That was out of the question. Even though she was now a peasant woman, she was going to be a beauty in the future. She had to work every day, so there was no hope of getting a good body.
Gu Heng had long since seen through this woman's intentions, but he didn't withdraw his words. He only wanted to tease this woman.
"Alright, let's start the work now. We'll loosen up and dig deeper in the next few days."
Qian Duoduo waved her hand and a few workers left with hoes in their hands. She stood to the side and watched them.
"Captain Qian!"
Hearing someone call him from behind, Qian Duoduo immediately turned around and ran towards Gu Manli.
"What orders does the Prince have?" The look on his lackey's face was particularly comical to Gu Manli's eyes.
"Sit down."
Gu Meili pointed at the stone in front of Qian Duoduo, who hurriedly nodded and sat down.
"Captain Qian is just a woman. It's inconvenient to bring a child, right?"
Qian Duoduo was stunned. Why did this prince suddenly ask him this question? Could it be that Tycoon suddenly showed a kind heart and cared about his subordinate's family?
"Fortunately, the ingots are very obedient."
"Abandoning your wife is a huge crime in this country. Why don't you go to the government and report it?"
"Huh?" Abandon his wife and children? Qian Duoduo was a little confused. "No, no, that …" The child died in battle, leaving us orphans and widows. "
After saying that, Qian Duoduo's expression became sorrowful, as if he was recalling the death of his' husband '.
"Died in battle? When I saw that your family was living in poverty, did my superiors in the village embezzle your husband's pension? "
Gu Ying Li tapped her finger on her knee. If it was true that her superior had embezzled the pension of this soldier's family, then it was indeed time for her to take care of this matter.
"Pension..." Qian Duoduo lowered her head as her brain quickly spun around. She admitted that she was indeed planning to get a pension, but … Everyone in the village knew that she wasn't married.
If Gu Meili went to find trouble with the government officials, he would be found out!
"Your Highness, it's like this. Actually, I don't know if my husband really died in battle, but he hasn't sent a letter home in many years. He dragged the military camp and asked around, but they didn't find anyone.
"Which year?"
After all, they were all subjects of the imperial court, and he had also been on the battlefield before, so it was naturally hard for him to know how cruel the battlefield was.
If this woman was really the soldier's widow, then he definitely wouldn't treat her unfairly.
"I think he was just five months pregnant when he joined the army."
Since she had already lied to this extent, she could only continue to lie.
"Erm, Your Highness, I'll go check the ground first." Qian Duoduo was afraid that Gu would continue asking questions, so he ran to the field to check on the situation of the workers.
Seeing her thin back, Gu Shenwei was preparing to call Xuan Ji over to give orders, when he suddenly noticed that there was someone behind him.
"Come out!"
Only then did a colorful figure timidly step out from behind the tree. "Prince ~" Li Lotus pinched her throat and shouted out. She thought that she could make a person speak in a voice that was deep inside their bones.
