Xia Li was wearing a snow-white hang silk beige and a crescent-shaped phoenix-tailed skirt. The hem of the skirt was outlined and embroidered with large white pear flowers, which seemed to be blooming at her feet.With her steps, the pear blossoms are swaying, and the subtle fragrance floats as she walks.

She combed a simple fairy hair, with only a phoenix tail inserted obliquely, her whole body was pure and elegant, only the bright red lips lit up her whole body, making her look extraordinarily translucent.

Looking at her demeanor, she is really extraordinary, and she looks like she is from a wealthy family.

The neighbors talked a lot, whispering to each other about a little fairy coming out of nowhere.However, it would be great if this little fairy could become her neighbor.After all, who doesn't like looking at beauties?Not to mention such a beautiful little beauty.

This is a Zhuangzi in the western outskirts of the capital. Xia Li has already bought it in advance, and also bought a few loyal servants.But she didn't know much about this Zhuangzi. The manager here was surnamed Lin. He was not only familiar with accounting, but also knew about Nonggu very well. He had a clean background, so he was the most suitable person.

Steward Lin greeted him in a hurry. He was dressed in gray cotton clothes, and he looked quite old, with his hair still flying in the cold wind. The field is plowed, and the grain will be planted next spring..."

"Boss Lin, I will trouble you here." Xia Li hurriedly helped him up.Although he didn't come out to greet her on time, she couldn't bear the thought of blaming her. After all, things in the farm are very busy, how can she always serve the master like the steward of a big family!

Steward Lin calmed down, and explained the situation in the village, "We have ten acres of land a mile away. The land is fertile, and we can grow some wheat. We can also raise some chickens and ducks in the village, and we can eat it ourselves or sell it... ..." Then he talked about some trivial matters, "Our neighbor is a scholar, and when he reaches the age of marriage, the servant may see something wrong with the lady's appearance, why not invite two guards, what's the matter can also be protected.”

Xia Li naturally agreed.

Xia Li walked around the village, the house was spotless, it could be seen that someone cleaned it from time to time, some melons and fruits were planted in the yard, and one or two chickens and ducks were raised.Some servants have already started cooking, and the aroma is overflowing.Residents on Zhuangzi were also happy and happy, and they came to say hello to Xia Li one after another.

These residents are all in good spirits, their clothes are clean, and they have sent a lot of miscellaneous things. Their expressions are cautious but full of sincerity, which wiped away Xia Li's uneasiness.

Originally, although she was yearning for a new life, she was still uneasy.But the enthusiasm of others moved her, and she immediately calmed down.She began to rejoice that she had the courage to take that step, otherwise she would always be a sparrow in a cage.

The Zhuangzi bought by Xia Li is a brick house, which is considered a very good house, and most of the others are built with soil.Although the civil-built houses are warm in winter and cool in summer, they are comfortable to live in.But Xia Li still insisted on buying a brick and tile house, after all, she wanted safety more.

After eating, Xia Li found a place to sit down, and then called Steward Lin and asked him to bring the account book.In the past, she was the wife of the Duke, and it was not good for her to do business outside.But now that she is free, she wants to start a business.

Steward Lin continued to talk: "Miss, besides what we eat, we can earn 500 taels a year by selling the crops on the field. We keep melons, fruits, chickens and ducks for our own consumption, and the cost is less. Seven servants It costs 70 taels of silver a year, and the two guards cost 30 taels of silver a year, so it’s still profitable..."

That field is very good and fertile, and Xia Li can live well on these fields alone.After all, many farmers bought barren fields and would sell their daughters in the future if they could not survive.

But Xia Li has always been prepared for danger in times of peace, she said slowly: "If there is a natural or man-made disaster, wouldn't there be no food? Why don't we buy a restaurant that specializes in farm food. Manager Lin, do you have a chef to recommend? You need to be good-natured and hardworking , who are good at cooking farm dishes."

Steward Lin hurriedly said: "Everyone here is good at cooking farm dishes. There is a farmer surnamed Zhao in the family two miles away. He loves his wife and cooks every day. His culinary skills are really amazing! Why don't you invite him to be the head chef? , and some other helpers are carefully selected in our Zhuangzi, and it is not a problem to think about manpower."

Xia Li nodded. The most important thing to open a restaurant is the chef. Since you can find a loyal and reliable chef, other things are not a big deal.

She smiled and said to Steward Lin, "Then I will leave this matter to you."

Steward Lin immediately responded with kindness: "This is the job of a slave, and it must be done properly for the young lady."

"Okay, then you can arrange a car now, I'm going to the city." Xia Li said lightly.

There are no carriages on the Zhuangzi, only donkey carts, so the carriage that Xia Li was in when she came here became the only carriage here.When passing along the way, everyone waved their hands to Xia Li to say hello.

Xia Li felt emotionally, the living conditions of the people here are really good, and they are all very energetic.Although in the eyes of some wealthy people, their clothes are rustic, like dirt, but Xia Liqu respects them very much.

Those who work hard are the most worthy of respect.

Xia Li checked several restaurants in the central area of ​​the west of the city, but failed to make a reservation. She wanted to discuss it with Steward Lin.Haitang is also very yearning for the new life, so the new life is really enjoyable.

After a few days of investigation, Xia Li finally bought a restaurant and renamed it Jixiang Restaurant, which specializes in farm dishes and takes the route of being close to the people at affordable prices.

Manager Lin's son, Xiao Lin, became the shopkeeper of Jixiang Restaurant. He was always smiling, and the food in the restaurant was very affordable, so the business was booming.

Xia Li not only grows melons and fruits and raises chickens and ducks in the village, but also raises several pigs, hires some women to weave cloth, and gives one or two silver coins a month.Now, the more than 200 households here simply regard Xia Li as the God of Wealth, wishing to worship her.

You must know that a farmer only earns [-] taels a month, and when God rewards him, he can only earn [-] taels a year, and women earn even less.Now that Xia Li makes a move for a month or two, it can be said to be very generous.

The days are very lively.

Get up early every morning, after eating porridge and buns, go outside for an hour to exercise, eat something good at noon, do some odd things in the afternoon, and have a meal of fish and meat at night... It was Xia Li's daily life.

Although the clothing, food, housing and transportation in Zhuangzi are not as exquisite as the Duke's Mansion, Xia Li is happy physically and mentally because she has settled her mind and is not entangled in plots and schemes.Therefore, her complexion is getting better every day, a lot of flesh has grown on her face, and her body is constantly growing like a wicker.

Xia Li simply couldn't think of Shu.

She thought, as long as there is no war, she can live here in peace for the rest of her life.

This is probably what a peaceful and happy life is like.

But soon someone came to break such a peaceful life.

Ma Shi and Xia Yao rushed into the Zhuangzi aggressively, seeing the leisurely Xia Li, they were immediately enraged.Although the relationship with Xia Li is not good, but when Xia Li was the wife of the Duke, she acted like a tiger, and when she tasted the sweetness, it was suddenly reported that Xia Li had reconciled with them. nothing to do with it.

Ma Shi was so angry that he wanted to beat Xia Li to death.But after waiting and waiting until Xia Li came home, when she went to find someone in person, she was told that Xia Li had left.Originally, he wanted to sell Xia Li again, but now he was out of money, and Ma became very angry.

She is a shrew, and she has never suffered a disadvantage since she was a child, but now she is in Xia Li's hands, and she is really angry.So she scolded Xia Weiye a lot, and asked him for manpower to investigate Xia Li, only then did she find out that she had moved to Zhuangzi.

Originally, he thought that she would live in an earthen house, and that she would not be able to eat well or live well, so he could take care of her, take her home and sell her again.But seeing that she actually lived such a good life, the greedy light in her eyes couldn't be concealed no matter what.

She was amazed, these are all money, all Xia family's money, Xia family's money is her own money.If you sell this Zhuangzi and all those slaves, you can go to Tianxiang Inn to buy a lot of jewelry... Thinking about it this way, Ma Shi took it for granted, and regarded this place as his own money.

"You bitch! How dare you still have the face to live in this world? A woman who is easygoing like you should go to soak in a pig cage~ How dare you have the face to buy a house here with the money? The money is not yours. Give it to me!" Come out, come back with me, and see if I don't treat you properly!" Shi Ma cursed with one hand on her hip and pointing at Xia Li with the other.

Xia Yao looked greedily at Zhuangzi with a pair of small eyes, shrewd and shrewd, like a mouse.She also has a good plan, Xia Li has lost her status as the Duke's wife, and it is impossible to marry a rich family with her status.If he could take all the money away, then his dowry would be quite decent.Bring the dowry to her husband's house, and she will be superior to others.

Looking at these two cannibalistic women, Xia Li really felt that they were really stupid and bad.How could they feel that they are the stupid person who can let them handle it?

Spending their own money and torturing themselves, they took up all the good things in this world.

Xia Li smiled coldly, "Are you going to leave by yourself or should I let someone drag you down?"

When Ma Shi met her gaze, she was startled. The sharpness in Xia Li's gaze made her feel chills in her heart, and she almost had the urge to kneel down.

After she was overwhelmed, she yelled again: "Don't put on a show for me, your surname is Xia, and everything belongs to our Xia family, and has nothing to do with you!"
