The reconstruction of the homes of the affected villagers is still proceeding in an orderly manner.
But Tao Qiqi should also prepare to return to Jiangdu.
After watching them working here for nearly half a month, she had nothing to worry about.
Magistrates Qi and An are both very serious and responsible magistrates. Leave the rest of the work to them, and Tao Qiqi can return to Jiangdu to celebrate the New Year with peace of mind.
We can't keep grandma and the others waiting too long.
So on this day, after Tao Qiqi and Fang Yu sorted out the recent expenses, they roughly estimated the funds needed for the remaining projects, and after preparing enough funds and handing them over to the two county magistrates, she took her family back home.
Jiangdu is over.
Of course, Tao Qiqi also took out all the usable materials that were collected in Jinxiang County from the space, and let the villagers claim them on their own.
In this way, things here in Jinxiang County can be considered to have come to an end.
****
In winter in the south, the wind is biting and dry.
In the carriage, Tao Qiqi took out a bottle of homemade cream and a stick of homemade lipstick from her sleeve pocket.
"Mom, you just had lunch, remember to reapply your lipstick and apply some cream on your face, otherwise your face will be dry and prone to red rashes. My dad will be disgusted if he sees the red rashes all over your face.
is you."
Tao Qiqi started to touch up her makeup as she spoke.
"You're already old, what's there to dislike?" Qi Mei said with a smile.
Of course, despite Qi Mei's calm and casual appearance, she was actually nervous inside at this time.
Even more nervous than anyone else.
Although he said there was nothing to dislike, he acted honestly and took out the rouge, lipstick and lipstick given by his daughter and started to touch up his makeup.
After finishing the patch, don't forget to look left and right in the small bronze mirror to make sure your entire face is rosy and shiny before you feel more at ease.
Tao Qiqi looked at this scene and knew that her mother was nervous, so she stopped teasing her and started to comfort her.
"Mom, we will be home in just over an hour. I know you are nervous. After all, whether it is your father, grandfather or grandmother, you have not seen each other for more than ten years. The lost family ties will always worry you when you meet again suddenly.
That, but we have nothing to worry about.”
"Grandpa and grandma are your father and mother. When they see you, they will only cherish you and love you more. They will definitely not dislike you."
"What's more, they are also looking forward to meeting you."
"As for dad, I won't dislike you even more. Otherwise, I wouldn't have never married again. Anyway, since the last time dad asked Shan Qiang to bring over 10,000 taels of silver notes, I won't worry anymore."
After hearing what her daughter said, Qi Mei said worriedly: "But your father thought I had had an accident, so he never married again."
"Now that I appear again, I am no longer the Mrs. Gu I once was. How should a man let go of what happened in the past ten years?"
After Qi Mei finished speaking, Tao Qiqi also fell into deep thought.
Yes, as a man, how should a man in ancient times let go of what happened in the past ten years!
This is not modern. Women can have boyfriends one after another. Even if their husbands are not good, they can divorce and remarry!
Regardless of second and third marriages, most men don't care too much.
But in such a feudal ancient times, it was completely opposite to modern times.
The vast majority of men here are very concerned about the reputation of women.
At this time, Tao Qiqi couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart.
Maybe it’s regret! Regret that she knew about these things too late.
But at that time, she had just traveled through time, and neither she nor the original owner knew about her mother's experiences, not even her mother herself.
So much so that she always believed in her heart that Tao Laosi was the father who raised the original owner anyway.
The grace of nurturing is greater than heaven!
Therefore, as a person who had just traveled through time and had a modern military spirit, she still felt guilty when she chose to break off her relationship with Tao Laosi in order to protect her mother when faced with a bunch of top talents from the Tao family.
Later, on the way to escape from famine, for the sake of Tao Laosi, in order to make up for her inner guilt, the Tao family came to trouble her, but she just wanted to teach her a lesson. She didn't do anything to them.
She even dodges every time she faces Tao Laosi.
But now that everything has been revealed, the guilt in her heart has long since disappeared.
The kindness of nurturing and the kindness of saving lives are nothing more than taking people’s money and doing transactions for them.
It's just that it was too late to know all this. If she had known it earlier, she should have torn the entire Tao family apart.
Especially that Tao family.
If Mrs. Tao hadn't forced her mother to marry Tao Laosi, her mother wouldn't be so sad now.
Tao Shi had better pray not to let her touch her again in this life.
Otherwise, she would throw her into the mountains in a fit of anger because of her hatred for her.
And Tao Qiqi is also praying now, praying that her father, whom she has never met, can be fine with her mother.
"But Mom has thought it through. It's not your father's fault, and he has been taking care of your grandfather and grandmother for more than ten years."
"If you go back this time, even if your mother and your father can't go back to the past, you will still be your father's daughter. This won't affect anything."
"Just like what you advised Xiaoyu at the beginning, if you can't be husband and wife, you can still be relatives and friends."
Looking at Qi Mei, Tao Qiqi knew that her mother was comforting herself and her.
But now, what else could she say.
Looking at Qi Mei, Tao Qiqi raised a smile: "Mom is right, dad and we have always been relatives. As long as we can still be together, some things can only be done slowly. There is no rush."
Qi Mei nodded, "Okay, you can rest for a while. Mom will call you when you get home."
"Yes." Tao Qiqi agreed, leaning on her mother's shoulder and began to close her eyes and meditate.
However, when she closed her eyes, she did not fall asleep, but her consciousness entered the space.
Now she has unlocked three large areas of her space field, with a planting area of 600 square meters.
These three large fields are planted with existing fruits, vegetables and existing grain crops.
There are relatively few fruits and vegetables. She found fruit trees in the mountains, and there are only a few of various kinds.
We don’t grow many watermelons, but we just have enough for our own consumption.
The same goes for vegetables.
Therefore, the most cultivated crops are various food crops.
Since traveling back in time, Tao Qiqi has experienced drought, war, and floods in just over half a year, so she knows that there must be no shortage of food.
So she has been hoarding food for emergencies.
The food she hoarded in Jinxiang County will come in handy this time.
In the coming spring, food will definitely be in short supply again, so her fields in the space are trying their best to plant high-yield food.
Even the breeding areas are shrinking again and again.
She kept the little rabbits in the orchard area, as well as the chickens.
As for the fish, they are raised directly in the rice fields.
Don't waste any space at all.
But next year, the entire Yongdu can promote the planting of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.
Her system has already rewarded these.
As for hybrid rice, next spring she can also find a suitable location to arrange research team members.
