Mrs. Dong supported Old Mrs. Dong and stood at the entrance of the village. After Dong Yuanxuan was no longer visible, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law slowly walked home.

On the way, Mrs. Dong sighed: "If the young prince had come a few months earlier, or if I hadn't gotten that disease... Xiaoman is a nice person, but Yuanxuan..."

His eyes turned red as he said, "I have wronged my grandson of Lanzhi Yushu."

Mrs. Dong also sighed. She was somewhat upset about her daughter-in-law Liu Xiaoman.

My daughter-in-law's appearance has the characteristics of a border person. She is tall, has thick and dark skin, speaks loudly, and has a somewhat wild and unrestrained temperament. In terms of appearance, the only advantage is that her facial features are more three-dimensional.

As for knowledge and education, there is no way to talk about it.

Mrs. Dong is not harsh on these things, but as a mother, she naturally hopes for the best for her son.

Seeing Mrs. Dong constantly wiping her tears with a handkerchief, Mrs. Dong quickly spoke out to comfort her: "Mom, we are destined to be married. The one before Yuan Xuan has a good family background and appearance, but not a good person. Whenever something happens to our family, we will be together."

Yuan Xuan and Li divorced."

"Although Xiaoman has shortcomings like this, he helped our family during the most difficult time. We have to accept this kindness."

"Speaking of which, if the young prince doesn't come, our family may have to stay in Gangshan Baihusuo. In addition, Yuan Xuan divorced again and Xiaoman married into the family. If we really want to talk about it, our family is higher."

Mrs. Dong glanced sideways at her daughter-in-law, but she didn't refute.

Seeing that Mrs. Dong looked better, Mrs. Dong said with a smile: "If Xiaoman does something wrong in the future, you and I can just teach her a few more times. Look at her, isn't her behavior much better now?"

Mrs. Dong nodded: "I didn't say anything bad about her, that child is warm-hearted."

Seeing Liu Xiaoman standing at the entrance of the courtyard waiting for them, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't say much and speeded up a bit.

"You are pregnant with the baby. Come in quickly and don't freeze."

......

Ganzhou City, Xiao Mansion.

Daohua was having lunch with Gu Jian, while Xiao Yeyang was training troops at the guard station. He had lunch with the military households and did not come back.

When the meal was almost over, Gu Jian asked: "Yeyang is going to take over all the refugees outside the city?"

Daohua nodded: "As long as you are willing to stay, you can stay."

Gu Jian: "Yeyang has to train troops and patrol the defense area. Can he be busy?"

Daohua smiled and said: "Xiao Yeyang has written to Brother Dong. When Brother Dong comes, the resettlement of the refugees will be left to him. In this way, Xiao Yeyang can feel more relaxed."

Gu Jian also knew Dong Yuanxuan and nodded.

Daohua: "The land here in Xiliang is vast and sparsely populated. I looked through the topography of Ganzhou Wei and found that most of the land here is uncultivated."

"For other health centers, refugees may be a burden, but I don't think so. The land here in Ganzhou Guard requires a large number of people to cultivate crops. In this way, it can not only ensure the supply of military supplies, but also benefit the development of Ganzhou Guard.

, kill two birds with one stone."

Gu Jian nodded in agreement: "This is true. The imperial court's support for Xiliang is not enough, and due to transportation constraints, Yeyang still has to be self-sufficient if he wants to manage Ganzhou Guard well."

Daohua smiled and nodded: "That's it." Only by solving the supply problem can a complete defense system be established.

After dinner, as soon as Daohua walked into the courtyard, Yan Shohou arrived.

"Girl, I have found out everything about Zhuangzi and the ranch."

"Here in Xiliang, Zhuangzi will be built only in places with sufficient water sources, but most of these are in the hands of health officials, and no one sells them at all."

"If we want to buy it, we can only open up wasteland and build another one."

"As for the fields, the good ones have been taken over by the guards as military fields."

"As for ranches, there are people selling them, but they are not very good."

After speaking, he handed the compiled information to Daohua.

Daohua flipped through the pages: "Have you personally seen all of these?"

Yan Shouhou nodded: "I've seen it all."

Daohua thought for a while: "Tomorrow you will accompany me to see the field again. Spring plowing is about to start, so we have to hurry up. By the way, have you finished all the farm tools I asked you to make before the New Year?"

Yan Shouhou: "By February, several blacksmith shops in the city should be able to produce 700 or 800 sets of farm tools."

Daohua shook his head: "Not enough." He pondered for a moment and then said, "In this case, you can go to the warehouse to collect the silver later, and send five hundred taels to each blacksmith shop, so that they can find more blacksmiths to make rush work."

In addition to the farm tools she uses, she also needs to prepare a batch for the refugees.

Yan Shouhou nodded: "I will take care of it immediately." After saying that, he turned and left. When he reached the door, he stopped and said, "Girl, when I went out of the city to see the village and the pasture, I noticed that some refugees seemed to have started to leave."

Hearing this, Daohua's expression changed: "I understand, you go down and do your work." After thinking for a moment, she got up and walked towards the yard where Dr. Ge lived.

......

When Doctor Ge saw Daohua coming, his face was full of surprise: "Madam, is there something wrong?"

Daohua asked with a smile: "How is the preparation of the military medical office of the health center going?"

Doctor Ge smiled and said: "Mr. Xiao specially designated a courtyard in the guardhouse to serve as a military medical office. Now the craftsmen are building it according to the plan. It should be completed in a few days."

Daohua: "With Doctor Ge in charge in the future, the wounded soldiers on the border and the military households in the guard houses will not have to worry about having no one to treat them."

"Thanks also to the medicinal materials provided by Madam. Without medicine, no matter how powerful I am, I won't be able to use it."

Doctor Ge sighed in his heart, everyone said that my wife has surpassed you, but in his opinion, you are really lucky to marry your wife.

If you marry someone else, you won't get such great support when you come to Xiliang.

Food and medicinal materials, no matter where they are, are all hard currency. It's not that others don't have them, but if Madam takes them out unconditionally, there will be very few.

After exchanging pleasantries, Daohua got down to the topic: "My husband is going to take over the refugees outside the city and let them open up wasteland. To manage a land, population is the foundation. With people, there will be tax revenue, and various commerce and trade will also be done."

Can do it more often."

"The weather has turned, and some refugees have begun to leave. Except for those who have families to return to, I want to keep them."

Doctor Ge: "If you have any instructions, madam, please just tell me."

Daohua: "I would like to ask Dr. Ge to go to a clinic outside the city for a few days to treat the refugees for free. The people responsible for resettling the refugees will come here soon. By then, with the official publicity, most of the refugees should be able to stay.

."

Master Ge agreed without much thought: "I have been eating and drinking in the house during this period. It's time for me to go out and do something. The medical apprentices I brought this time are also taken out to practice."

Daohua smiled and thanked: "Thank you, Doctor Ge."

The two talked for a while, and then Daohua left.

That afternoon, when Dr. Ge went to see Gu Jian to play chess, he told Gu Jian about Daohua's visit to him and sighed: "Madam is really a good wife."
