Chapter 128 People Brought Back from Shengjing
After everyone was seated, Yun Bo waved a small whip and the sound of horse hooves could be heard.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Uncle Yun is an experienced driver. He drives so fast and yet so steadily.]
Yun Bo was secretly delighted, thinking, "The young lady is praising me," and he whipped the horse even more vigorously.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Hey, I found the Tatar that the old man rowing the boat mentioned. This looks a bit like the Mongolian people! ]
Yun Bo and A De: Miss, don't hide the gossip! I'm so anxious.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It turns out that their tribe has a legend that using twin lotus can increase the chance of conception, so the twin lotus in Fengyu Lake was picked.]
"Idiot, everyone has left, why are you still watching?" Dai Sega squeezed Hua Qing.
"Sega, tell me, will Ade like someone like me?" Hua Qing looked dazed.
"Tsk tsk tsk, love makes people humble, so humble. Who are you? You are the most famous traveling doctor in Mingning Country. So many people ask you to treat their illnesses. Just with this reputation, Ade will definitely like it." Dai Shijia encouraged Hua Qing.
"Then I'm going to take action. How can I pursue a girl like Ade?" Hua Qing was unconfident.
"Well, I think you can ask Xiaoxiao. In the whole house, Xiaoxiao is the one who knows Ade best." Dai Sega gave advice.
"Okay, wait for Xiaoxiao to come back and I'll go ask."
Hua Qing turned and entered the government office.
Tian Lele was still in shock. She wanted to ask Ade, but she didn't dare to ask because she would be exposed if she asked.
Surprisingly, I can hear Xiaoxiao's voice again.
But I haven’t heard it once in the past few months when Daju was away. How come I can suddenly hear it today?
Tian Lele felt mixed emotions.
The good news is that my younger sister has probably gotten over the pain caused by Daju’s departure. The bad news is that my younger sister is eating melons, and something dangerous is about to happen again.
"Miss, we are almost there!" Yun Bo reminded. This is a small earthen slope.
In the early summer, the trees not far away are lush and green, and the surrounding farmlands are green. This is rice.
After the New Year, Tian Xingjian organized the garrison troops to reclaim a lot of mountain paddy fields, and distributed them to nearby villages as public land. No rent was required for the harvest, and the money from the sales was divided equally among all villagers.
However, the management of public fields and public lands is a responsibility shared by all villagers. Every household must provide a young and strong laborer to help. If there is no young and strong laborer in the family, no labor is required.
Tian Xingjian issued a clear order that all households should help each other and show more love to families with less labor.
Some families with orphans and widows were not idle either. They would come to help open the sluice gates to prevent the paddy fields from drying out, and would also come to help spread fertilizer.
Those who are lazy and don't come to help will not get any dividends at the end of the year, and the village head will help keep track of their work.
After the villagers finish working in their own fields, they come here to help. This is how their busy life is.
Tian Xiaoxiao seemed to have returned to the years she spent in the countryside in her previous life.
Seeing farmers using buckets to irrigate the fields, a new idea came to my mind. I will mention it to my father when I see him later to see if it can be realized.
Yun Bo looked out and saw a group of people slowly approaching from afar.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Last time you took me to the border, you rode so fast. Why are you dragging your feet this time? Don’t you want to see your mother and brother?]
Ade: It's over, the young lady has started to interfere in the adults' bedroom affairs.
Yun Bo: The adults must have brought someone else with them and couldn’t stand the bumpy ride.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [When Dad left, there seemed to be only three people? Four? How come there were more than ten when he came back? ]
Yun Bo: I don’t know which young man or young lady has delayed my master’s return home.
"Dad, Dad, we are here, here!"
Tian Lele and Tian Xiaoxiao jumped and waved their hands.
Tian Xingjian whipped the horse whip hard, dust flew up under his feet, and he ran to Tian Lele and Tian Xiaoxiao. He jumped off the horse before it stopped and hugged his two daughters.
"Dad is back. Dad misses you. How is Mom? Does Mom miss Dad?"
Tian Xiaoxiao in Tian Xingjian's arms: [He is indeed a wife slave. He hugs his daughter but thinks about his wife. ]
Tian Xingjian's hands around his two daughters trembled a little, and he looked up at Yun Bo, who nodded slightly.
"Be good, Daddy brought you some new toys. Daddy will give them to you now. Have you taken good care of Mom at home?"
Tian Lele: "My mother and my brother are both very good. My brother eats well, sleeps well, and is plump and white. He likes Xiaoxiao the most. He must see Xiaoxiao every day, otherwise he will make a fuss."
Tian Xingjian looked at Tian Xiaoxiao and said, "I didn't expect that our Xiaoxiao is so popular among children. Do you have a secret? Teach daddy."
"The secret is, the meaner you are to him, the more he likes you!" Tian Xiaoxiao said perfunctorily.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [This kid must have lost me in his previous life, so he always wants to please me. I am his nemesis.]
"Dad, there were only a few of you when you went to Xijing. How come there are more than a dozen of you when you came back?" Tian Lele asked.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is Sun Xilin, the youngest son of the current imperial merchant Sun Shanqin. He is fifteen years old and has come to Shengjing to study."
Tian Xingjian pointed at a beauty who was wearing a goose yellow robe with gold edges and looked like a flawless jade.
Even if that person was just standing there quietly, he still had an elegant demeanor and unique charm, giving people a sense of nobility and elegance.
"This is Wei Nanzhu, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue." Lord Wei has long eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a pointed jaw, and a pair of eyes as bright as diamonds, which sometimes flash with a look of contempt, making him look like a proud Persian cat.
Wei Nanzhu's thin pink lips were slightly raised with a hint of arrogance. All the facial features on his face formed a perfect look. He was wearing gorgeous clothes, which wrapped around his slender yet masculine body. His arrogant look of not taking anyone seriously was particularly noticeable in the crowd.
Tian Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to watch and closed her eyes: [Why does the Minister of Revenue look like a young prostitute? Can such a Minister of Revenue earn money for Nangong Rui? I'm afraid, I'm afraid! It's possible to earn a group of women for Nangong Rui. ]
The crowd fell silent instantly.
It is rumored that Miss Tian has a sharp tongue, but I didn't expect her to be so sharp!
Wei Nanzhu regretted dressing herself up so dazzlingly. If she had known earlier, she should have dressed like a rough man.
Tian Xingjian quickly covered up and introduced that the other girl was the county lady Nangong Zhao.
She was wearing a dark blue brocade dress with white plum blossoms embroidered on the hem, and a white brocade belt was tied around her slender waist.
Her jet-black hair was tied into a bun, with only a white jade hairpin with a plum blossom pattern inserted in it. Although simple, she looked fresh and elegant as she combed her hair in front of the mirror.
Her face was lightly made up, and a freshly picked white plum blossom was pinned diagonally on her hair. Apart from that, she only wore a jade hairpin decorated with thin gold beaded tassels.
Behind the three were their respective followers.
Tian Lele took Tian Xiaoxiao to greet them, and that was how they officially got to know the three of them.
Then Tian Xingjian carried Tian Xiaoxiao into the carriage and set off back to the city.
After being away for more than a month, he is already eager to return home.
Wei Nanzhu, who was riding on the horse, regretted his decision so much. He shouldn't have disobeyed the Crown Prince and thought that he was afraid of a three-year-old child. Why?
Sun Xilin: It’s a good thing not to be criticized.
Nangong Zhao: The little girl is quite interesting.
Soon, they returned to the government office.
