Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

“When the border city’s food supply was running out, it was Miss who brought

people to send food to help us tide over the crisis.’¹

“She has been cooking delicious food for us all day long at the border. Ever since she came, the food in the army has become better. We’re also full of energy. Moreover, she even spent a lot of effort thinking of a way to plant crops at the border.”

“As everyone knows, the soil at the border is poor. Whatever we plant will die. However, Miss created large patches of green on such land. There are also big watermelons that have recently been harvested. They were planted with the seeds you found!”

“Just now, this advisor said that Miss is using her power to oppress people. That’s even more impossible. Every commoner who came to participate in the farming is voluntary. They’re provided with food and grains. Even if they’re not paid, they’re trying their best to help. Moreover, Miss gave them a lot of money and even promised to give them seeds for free after planting the crops!’

“How can such a girl be a collaborator!”

“General, please don’t misunderstand Miss!”

Shao Lin spat. “That sounds good. She let the commoners farm for herself. If the melons she planted can be sold for money, won’t they be in her pocket?”

Xiaoxiao turned to look at him from the corner of her eye. “No, really.”

“I only care about testing the seeds. The experiences and things to take note of during the planting process will be recorded. From now on, I’ll copy them into a book and distribute them to the people of the border city for free.”

“As for the melons, that’s also a transaction between the commoners and

merchants. I won’t interfere.”

Shao Lin chuckled. “Who would believe that? Every man for himself. Why are

you so busy? Are you bored?”

Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “Maybe it’s because I have a good upbringing and

know how to take care of the world since I was young.”

“I estimate that half of this morality came naturally and was inherited from my parents. The other half came from my nurturing. It’s just that I’ve been influenced and learned well. A selfish person like you definitely won’t

understand.”

Shao Lin’s face turned pale. He felt very embarrassed. “Do you think His Highness and General Xiao will believe your nonsense?”

The Crown Prince hadn’t expressed his stance yet, but Xiao Ran reached out and patted Xiaoxiao’s little head.

“I believe her. How can I not know my daughter’s character?”

Shao Lin’s eyes almost popped out.

The Crown Prince, who had been pretending to be cool for a long time, was

also speechless.

Xiaoxiao chuckled and threw herself into Xiao Ran’s arms. “Mother, they’re so

fierce. I’m so afraid.”

Xiao Ran patted her daughter’s back and looked at Shao Lin coldly. “I didn’t hear you clearly just now. Whose family members are you going to kill?”

Shao Lin was shocked and in disbelief. What did that village girl call Xiao Ran?

Xiaoxiao looked up and complained aggrievedly, “Mother, he said that you’re a thief!”

She even repeated to Gu Chang’an, “Father, he said that your wife is a thief!

The couple looked coldly at the Crown Prince and the others, who had yet to understand the current situation. “Hehe.

Although she didn’t know what book they were talking about, Xiao Ran still pulled out a guard’s sword and placed it on Shao Lin’s neck. “I gave that lousy book to Xiaoxiao. Why? Is there a problem? If you say that I stole the book from the Crown Prince’s residence, you have to show evidence. Otherwise, let’s go to His Majesty and have a good talk.”

“I also want to see how many lives you have since you tried to frame an

Imperial Court official.”

After saying this, she didn’t have the patience to listen to the Crown Prince and the advisor’s excuses. She pulled her precious daughter Xiaoxiao into her experiment field. This time, the Crown Prince wasn’t in the mood or the face to follow them forcefully.

Shao Lin trembled on the spot. “Y-Your Highness, h-how is this possible? How can that village girl be Xiao Ran’s daughter? She never said anything.”

The Crown Prince was not any calmer than him, but he understood one thing better than Shao Lin. Xiao Ran’s family was clearly watching a show just now! Watching his show!

He felt that his face had been peeled off and trampled on. He was ashamed and humiliated!

However, Shao Lin was still talking nonsense. “Your Highness, what if they keep harping on this matter and complain to His Majesty?”

The Crown Prince’s expression was dark as he looked at Shao Lin indifferently. The latter broke out in cold sweat. “Crown Prince… Your Highness?

The Crown Prince’s eyes darkened. “Shao Lin, haven’t you always felt guilty for causing me to be trapped in the small courtyard and wanted to find an opportunity to make up for your mistakes? Now, your chance is here.” Shao Lin trembled. He wanted to run, but the two guards at the door had already drawn their swords at the Crown Prince s signal.

As the cold light approached his neck, he thought in fear and despair, In the end, I still can’t escape…

Xiaoxiao couldn’t wait to show off the results of her labor to her parents, so she had long forgotten about those annoying people. She actually didn’t like disputes. All she wanted in her life was to have Little Big Brother and delicious food to accompany her.

“Mother, do you see these small yellow and orange fruits? This is a pumpkin, and there are vines that climb very high over there. Those are grapes. Don’t miss the underground area. Those are peanuts and potatoes, but they are all in the soil. You have to dig them out to see them. I planted many seeds here to see

which ones can grow.”

Xiao Ran didn’t know much about farming, but as a qualified chef, Gu Chang’an still knew more about ingredients. “But it’s not like no one has tried it before. Why are you the only one who succeeded?”

Xiaoxiao chuckled. “Because the soil is different. Didn’t you notice that the color of the soil here is different from other places?”

When Gu Chang’an and Xiaoxiao saw that it was true, Xiaoxiao counted with her fingers and told them how she fertilized the land back then, how she plowed it, and how she specially planted poplar trees and date trees to control the speed at which the soil turned into sand.

“This shed isn’t built casually. Did you notice that the temperature inside is different from outside?”

“Don’t think that it’s just a small plot of land. It took a lot of effort from the commoners!”

The surrounding commoners who were working, said, “As long as we can plant good things, it’s worth it no matter how hard and tiring it is! Moreover, this is all Miss’s idea. We just put in some effort.”

Actually, when they heard the Crown Prince’s men criticizing Xiaoxiao just now, they also wanted to rush out to testify, but Xiaoxiao got someone to stop them.

This was because Xiaoxiao felt that as the only daughter of the General’s Residence and with many contributions, it was nothing to fight with the Crown Prince. However, the commoners could not. It was not that she was afraid, but she did not want the powerless commoners to be implicated because of this.

The Crown Prince could not touch her, but could he not do anything to a few commoners?

She could always try her best to let people take care of the commoners, but there was always a loophole. She could protect the commoners for a while, but she could not protect them forever. She did not want these hardworking and cute people to face despair again when they saw hope.

Besides, she had her parents by her side. She definitely couldn’t suffer a loss, right?

Xiaoxiao pulled Gu Chang’an around excitedly. The methods she mentioned to manage the soil were all the experiences of the later generations. They were knowledge that had been accumulated through generations of trying.. Although these methods could not immediately change the current situation at the border, as long as they persisted, they would definitely be effective!
