As the surrounding people dispersed, Xiang Tong also shared his thoughts with Lan Tianyao, "Perhaps this is not bad."
Lan Tianyao: …
"Do you remember what Xin Ci said, that Tatar spies have reappeared here?"
"I remember."
"So, if the Tatars really attack, the people of Phoenix City can be good helpers."
"If it's as you say, those big suckers are still intangible aids?"
"Let's assume so. When the real fight breaks out, they can help somehow."
"If you say so, I'll bear with it."
"Notify us if anything happens."
"That's for sure. I haven't congratulated you yet, Mayor Xiang." Lan Tianyao finished speaking, and looked at Xiang Tong with a solemn tone, "Xiang Tong, what you said makes a lot of sense. From today on, I will also be Mayor Lan."
"If the people of Phoenix City want to compete with you for mayor, you can't give it to them."
"They can stay if they want, and get lost if they don't. I've decided, this place will be called Qilin Town, and I am the mayor."
"Hey, demeanor, don't keep saying 'I' like that."
"I've said it before, demeanor and quality should be shown to the right people. For some people, not sending them to see their ancestors is already my mercy."
Xiang Tong: Lan Tianyao is right, he can't refute him.
Lan Tianyao continued to share his so-called experience with Xiang Tong for a long time, until he saw Fu Xin Ci approaching, then his eyes lit up and he rushed over.
With his posture, it was like a hungry wolf seeing a little white rabbit, scaring Xiang Tong so much that he wanted to pin him to the ground and interrogate him for three days.
However, before he could act, he heard the old man smiling obsequiously and saying to Fu Xiao Niu, "Xin Ci, do you have any seeds? It doesn't matter what kind of seeds, as long as they are grain or vegetable seeds."
Fu Xin Ci knew Lan Tianyao and was grateful for the raw stone and ornament he had given her. She nodded and said yes, and asked him what kind of seeds he wanted.
Lan Tianyao did not expect to receive VIP treatment from Fu Xiao Niu. He was overjoyed. Everyone was watching, and if he had a tail, it would be wagging to the sky.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, he remembered the main business and asked Fu Xin Ci for seeds of rice, wheat, corn, sorghum, millet, and other grains.
As for vegetable seeds, he also got some of each, which made Lan Tianyao so happy that he almost forgot to use his space ring.
Xiang Tong had never seen Lan Tianyao like this before.
Fu Xin Ci also left Xiang Tong enough seeds and grain, and told her friends that she would not be able to come tomorrow.
She had been returning very late these past few days. Although Qi He had been covering for her, her mother's expression was not good.
Alas, for the next few days, she had to be more restrained.
As night fell, Fu Xin Ci was just starting to feel drowsy when she heard the heavy raindrops pattering against the glass window, and she immediately woke up.
She lifted a corner of the curtain and saw large raindrops falling densely outside the window, not very clearly.
She had been so busy going to the valley these past few days that she had almost forgotten the season. It was summer, and rain was normal, but no one liked drought.
However, thinking of her friends still living in tents, she was still worried about them.
The friends in the rainy night were much more optimistic than her. They were all awake, crowded by the tent entrance, and playing in the rainwater.
"Look at this pure natural, pollution-free rainwater, it's really different. I've rubbed it left and right and it doesn't feel hot."
"Of course! We are in ancient times now. The ancients called this rainwater, snow water, dew, and other forms of 'rootless water'. People who are particular about it even collect these rootless waters to brew tea."
Yang Xin Jie spoke eloquently, while Xiao Ai, Xu Ru Yi, and Zhang Ying listened with great pleasure.
Until the sound of the rain gradually weakened to a dripping sound, and the snoring from the adjacent tent could be heard intermittently, Yang Xin Jie finally stopped talking.
"It's too late, let's go to sleep too."
"Mmm."
The valley in the early morning was shrouded in a thin mist, looking as beautiful as a dream.
The captain woke up quite early. As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Uncle Xu and Uncle Sun talking outside.
"This place is really good. Even if it rains, we're not afraid."
"Yeah, last night I even wanted to sit outside and get rained on."
"Don't be ridiculous. How old are we? We can't compare ourselves to these young people."
"How old are we? We shouldn't say discouraging things ourselves. Our age can only be considered prime of life."
"Prime of life, that was before the apocalypse. Now that we're in ancient times, many people become grandfathers at thirty."
Captain: That hits a nerve.
"Hey, I say, Old Xu, I never dared to think about it before, but now that we're relatively stable, you should also find a wife for Jia Can."
"I've been thinking about this for the past two days, but I don't know if this kid has anyone he fancies."
"These kids are all good, but they are all careless when it comes to relationships. Especially Long Teng, he's already over thirty and not in a hurry."
Captain: He hasn't done anything, and the fire has already burned to him.
"Heh heh."
The captain heard a low chuckle and turned around. He saw Xu Jia Can, wearing only a vest and shorts, smiling at him.
"You still have the nerve to smile."
"If I don't smile, should I cry?"
"Did you hear? Your dad is planning to find you a wife."
"Tch, even if he finds one, he'll find one for you first."
"Why?"
"Why? I say, Big Brother, why does your IQ drop to zero whenever this kind of thing is mentioned?"
"When did it?"
"Mmm, it didn't drop, it just went to visit the neighbors." Xu Jia Can finished speaking, rolled his eyes, and then got up to wash.
Captain: Why doesn't he think so.
After breakfast, Fu Xin Ci was held by Fang Shi on the kang to do needlework. She wanted to resist, but was quickly suppressed.
"Look at all the girls in this town, which one is like you, always running outside."
Fu Xin Ci wanted to say: there are none.
"Girls should have the appearance of girls. Mother doesn't want to restrict you from staying indoors all the time, but you can't be running outside every day."
Listening to her mother, Fu Xin Ci felt a little guilty.
Fang Shi saw that her daughter's performance today was good, and with a smile, she took out the wedding dress that her daughter had only half-embroidered. "Here, you need to embroider this part carefully, otherwise, someone will laugh on your wedding day."
"Who will laugh?"
"Of course, those who see it."
"Didn't Mother say I'll be in a sedan chair when I get married? No one will see along the way."
"When you get out of the sedan chair, you have to pay homage, and there will be many people witnessing the ceremony during this process."
"Mother, the Qi family doesn't have many relatives."
"But your Uncle Qi is a commander, so there will be no shortage of guests for the ceremony."
Fu Xin Ci: What else can she say?
"Ci'er, have you remembered what Mother said?"
"Mmm, I remember."
"These phoenix eyes must be embroidered vividly to be beautiful. Ci'er, add a few more stitches here."
"Mmm." Fu Xin Ci answered, but always felt that her hands were disobedient.
