"Wait a minute, what did you call Feng Yu?" Cheng Xiaoxiao was speechless for a moment.

"Feng Yuxin."

"Feng Yuxin."

The system's voice and Feng Yuxin's own voice sounded at the same time, one echoing in the air and the other in his mind.

Feng Yuxin was in a sad mood. She had been here for nearly a year, and the city lord didn't even remember his name. How could he show his ambition and make his family live a better life.

The eldest brother asked him to recommend himself, but he never took any action.

A real man has something to say but does not do anything.

The self-esteem in his bones made him unable to lower his head to please a woman. Even though he already admitted in his heart that the woman was indeed excellent, he still couldn't open her mouth. Several times they pretended to meet her, but he still stood in the crowd and did not have the courage to step forward.

"Yes, yes, Feng Yuxin, I heard that you were born as a Jinshi."

Feng Yuxin clasped her fists and saluted, "If I go back to the city lord, I am Dong Yan's 27th year, and the eighth rank among the top two Jinshi."

"Not bad, not bad. He is a talented person. Why haven't I discovered it before? I think Second Young Master Feng is a talented and ambitious young man. Are you willing to work for Phoenix City?"

Feng Yuxin lowered her head slightly and twitched the corners of her mouth. What do you mean by not noticing it before?

No matter what tricks this young city lord is playing, the deeds of prostitution of their whole family are still in her hands, and the lives of the whole family are tied to each other's waist, so what right do they have to say.

The original promise that as a city doctor would exempt him from slavery was nothing more.

The other party really knows how to make fun of himself.

Cheng Xiaoxiao obviously also remembered this.

She seemed to have forgotten about it.

Ahem!

It was not too late to remedy the situation. Seeing the other party's delay in answering, she pretended to be displeased and said, "Why don't you want to Feng the Second Young Master?"

"City Lord, please calm down. The Feng family will always be the slaves of the Cheng family. No one dares to disobey."

Tsk, tsk, why is this person with so many thoughts so unpalatable to his words?

Look at this humble and unconvinced look, which makes me angry. I originally wanted to return the deed, but it seems I have to let it go.

So she said with a straight face, "Since Second Young Master Feng is self-aware, it would be best. This city lord is not an unkind person. For the sake of Dr. Feng's dedication to everyone's health, I will give you a chance."

As he spoke, he looked straight into the other person's searching dark eyes.

"Right now, the outer city is a mixed bag, and there may be a lot of dangerous elements mixed in. It's hard to get out, let alone manage. If you are asked to take over the outer city, can you take over this hot potato?"

Feng Yuxin suspected that there was something wrong with her ears?

Do you want to delegate power to him?

Seeing that his always shrewd brother was stunned and unresponsive, he stepped forward and poked his arm.

Such a good thing, hurry up and agree! Why are you so stunned!

Feng Yuxin's heart beat like a drum. He had misunderstood her just now.

Feeling anxious and excited, he quickly knelt down on one knee, bowed his hands, and said, "My subordinates will definitely fulfill their mission."

This is right!

Cheng Xiaoxiao was very satisfied, "I will let my second brother assist you. I hope you can manage the outer city well within one year. If you can submit a satisfactory answer by then, today, one year later, will be the day the deed is returned."

"

The clear and sweet female voice sounded like the sound of nature in the ears of everyone in the Feng family.

"Your city lord is serious about what you said." The Feng family has been in the cold for so long, and today there are a lot of surprises.

Feng Yuxin was afraid that everything today was just a dream and a bubble.

"Of course, this city lord's words can't be child's play! Get better, keep kneeling, don't worry about the pain in your knees."

Cheng Xiaoxiao waved his hand, indicating that the other party could retreat.

Although she does not reject others' respect and gratitude for her, she is not used to others kneeling down at every turn.

It didn't feel good, people only kneeled down to worship the dead, and she didn't want to go to bed so early.

Cheng Xiaoxiao continued to shout, "No. 136 Chu Qianyun."

Chu Qianyun took a step forward hesitantly and rubbed his hands, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Brother Chu, come and get the key."

"Thank you, Xiao... City Lord!"

It was difficult for him to change his words for a while, and he almost said the wrong thing.

Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, Brother Chu can still call me Sister Xiao."

Now most people in the city respectfully call her City Lord, and some people even add the word "adult" after it. Many people from the past have also changed their names, which makes her very embarrassed.

People are afraid of being famous, but pigs are afraid of being strong!

She felt that the previous title seemed close to them, but they were treating her with such respect now, which she was not used to.

"Thank you City Lord. You are a noble person in our family. You have saved us from danger time and time again. Neither I nor the head of the family have much ability. From now on, let Niu Niu Tian Tian, ​​diction, and etiquette run errands for you. You can do anything.

.”

The two of them have no skills. They are doing small business in the city and cannot help the city lord much. She can only put all her hopes on the four little guys.

"Sister Yuan is so polite, but I am not polite. The four little guys are all excellent and I couldn't ask for more." Cheng Xiaoxiao replied playfully.

"Okay, okay, let them learn skills from you in the future, it will also be a great blessing for them."

"no problem."

Make a mark in the account book and move on to the next person.

The entire room assignment process lasted until very late in the evening.

Cheng Xiaoxiao received so many thanks today.

"Host, host, I'm so grateful today." It could hardly accept it anymore, and the beep kept ringing.

'Wouldn't that be nice.'

Who would mind having too much money?

Happy and beautiful days are always short-lived.

As the weather gets hotter and hotter, summer is passing by in a hurry.

What is difficult for people to accept is that there was no rain throughout the summer.

Grain harvests in various places are almost less than 1/10 of previous years.

Although they missed the rice seeds originally, the people could still plant wheat and sorghum, and they could barely make enough to eat during the harvest season.

Even some of the most hungry vegetables are good choices.

It's just the vegetable leaves that are clattering in the ground, and the few ears of wheat and sorghum that have produced, it is really miserable. At first, wells were dug to irrigate the fields, but then the wells became deeper and deeper, and it was difficult to maintain basic water supply. Where could we still have water?

Can take care of the crops.

Last year's natural disaster consumed all the stored grain, and now God is not forgiving, and it really doesn't allow people a way to survive.

The most desperate thing is that even with such a low harvest, there are still people coming to snatch it.

Drought is severe in various places, and people exposed to the scorching sun every day are dizzy.

Many people are desperate. Grass roots and tree bark have been stripped off, the shoals in the river have cracked, and wild beasts in the mountains have escaped from the mountains to hunt.

For a time, people's hearts were in a state of flux, and talented people from all walks of life left their hometowns to find new ways of living.

But the people who escaped last year could only lie in bed waiting to die.

There were countless casualties throughout the dry season, and the number of casualties hit a new high.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's mission location is getting further and further away.

Not based on Aiqi Country, or even neighboring countries or across the ocean.

Everywhere she goes, she gathers a force to bring a glimmer of light and a hope for survival to those who have suffered.
