Does this girl have mind reading skills? He didn't say it, how did he know what he thought? Yu Xiaocao, you accidentally revealed the truth!
Zhu Junyang: There is almost no writing on your face, no matter who looks at it, you can see it, okay
"These days, you are living in the town. If you delay the farming season, you will be punished! Don't forget, you have signed a military order!!" Zhu Junyang couldn't help reminding. Huh? I seem to be talking too much today? what's the situation
Yu Xiaocao raised her eyebrows, her smile was full of confidence, and she said, "Don't worry! The corn has been planted for more than half a month. It's almost as tall as your calf, Dad?"
Yu Hai would go for a walk in the corn field every day, so naturally he knew the growth of the corn like the back of his hand. Hearing this, he quickly nodded and said: "Hmm! The leaves of corn are now two fingers wide, and each corn plant has at least six or seven leaves, and it should have entered the jointing stage! Daughter, don't worry, there is a father watching over you." Let’s go, you can’t go wrong!”
Yu Xiaocao smiled brightly at her father, turned to Zhu Junyang and said, "Did you hear that? To be honest, there is nothing bad about our family!! By the way, Dad! I asked you to help me transplant it." Are the apple trees and persimmon trees removed?"
"Okay, okay! The apples, persimmons and grapes have all been moved! I also found a hickory tree in the mountain, and moved it to the side of our yard." Yu Hai never refused to agree to the little girl's request.
"That's great! In the future, during Maodong, you can sit on the kang and eat delicious fried pecans! Dad, you are so kind!!" Yu Xiaocao took her father's hand and shook it coquettishly.
Yu Hai gently stroked his little daughter's head, laughing until the corners of her eyes appeared.
Well, the father and daughter chatted. Is it really okay to leave me as a guest here? Feeling the deep affection between father and daughter, watching the interesting interaction between the two, Zhu Junyang was reluctant to interrupt this warm scene.
"Miss Yu likes to eat pecans? Then she must also like sunflower seeds?" Zhu Junyang couldn't help interjecting, not wanting to be just a spectator.
Sunflower seeds? Already have sunflower seeds at this time? Very good! In her spare time, eating melon seeds is her favorite! !
"Sunflower seeds? Do you have seeds??" Yu Xiaocao asked impatiently.
Sure enough, she knew about sunflowers! There must be some secrets about the little girl of the Yu family, just like... the emperor also has secrets.
Zhu Junyang's voice was cool and not cold, he nodded slowly and said: "That's right! There are indeed sunflower seeds among the seeds I brought back from the West. I heard that the sunflower seeds are edible after being fried! You can try!"
"Okay, okay!! Give me some seeds, I'll try to see!" Yu Xiaocao couldn't help but jump for joy. Ha ha! Fortunately, she traveled to the Ming Dynasty, and fortunately, there was a time-traveling senior who liked to go out to sea to find things. I am so happy to have melon seeds to eat in the future.
Seeing the little girl's expression like a cat who stole Xiaoyu, Zhu Junyang's mood improved inexplicably. The most real, is the most moving! Perhaps, in Tanggu Town, he can relax wholeheartedly without staying away from the crowd.
There is no need to be on guard all the time, and there is no need to guess all the time. Perhaps such a day is more suitable for him... Unknowingly, the corner of his mouth slightly raised a touching arc—after so many years, he finally regained the "smiling" expression.
"Next time you go back to Beijing, I'll have someone send you some seeds! It shouldn't be too late, right?" If Princess Jing sees him talking so much, will she be happy or jealous
"It's not too late, it's not too late!" With the cheating device of Lingshi Liquid, she can grow sunflowers even later. I don't know how many seeds the little prince can give her, is it enough to eat? Yu Xiaocao held her small face and smiled so much that she could see the two rows of white teeth, but she couldn't find her eyes!
"I want to see the growth of the corn and make a simple record." Zhu Junyang thought about it, and left the stall in the household department of the capital, and went to Tanggu Town to hide. If the emperor asked, he would have something to say.
Yu Xiaocao, who was in a good mood, nodded and said: "Okay! I will accompany the Xiaojun Wang to the field tomorrow. Don't worry, there is absolutely nothing wrong with letting the corn be planted by our family!"
After making an appointment to go to Dongshan Village together tomorrow, Zhu Junyang stood up and said goodbye, "If you sum up a set of methods for growing corn and potatoes, I will ask for credit for you. At that time, the rewards will naturally be indispensable to you!"
Although I am afraid that my identity as a time traveler will be exposed by the emperor, a fellow time traveler, but the things that the emperor bestows must be absolutely extraordinary. The entanglement in Yu Xiaocao's heart, is she going to take the credit or not
The next day, the news that the county prince was going to condescend to visit Dongshan Village had already spread like a spark that started a prairie fire. The village head got the news from Yu Hai the night before, and was so excited that he stayed up all night, staring at the dark circles under their eyes and busily trying to figure it out. He called the whole village early in the morning and held a meeting. The main spirit of the meeting was to make the villagers tense up and take care of their own son so as not to offend the nobleman. He also slaughtered pigs and sheep, and invited all the well-recognized cooks in the village together, and brainstormed to prepare a table for the nobles...
When Zhu Junyang, accompanied by the county magistrate, came to Dongshan Village, he saw the villagers of Dongshan Village warmly lined up to welcome guests from a long distance away.
Yu Xiaocao rode the little red horse given to her by her godfather, and followed the Xiaojun Wang and the accompanying officials, looking very leisurely. As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the village, she saw the village head's grandpa leading the whole village up and down, kneeling on the ground, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly urged the little red horse to avoid it. Many of the elders in the village are her elders, and if you don't avoid it, your life will be shortened.
Zhu Junyang's personal bodyguard, Wu Deshun, under the gaze of his master, hurriedly got off his horse and helped the gray-haired village chief, and said: "The king of the county is going on tour in modest clothes, there is no need to be so grand. Folks, please get up."
The old village chief, who was supported up, was so excited that he burst into tears, and said with trembling lips: "The prince of the county condescends to come, and the grassroots are terrified, as it should be!"
After studying for a few years, it's just different. When it comes to talking about scenes, it's really the same. Yu Xiaocao got off the horse and searched for her family among the crowd. But he found that, except for the grandfather, Mrs. Zhang, and Yu Dashan and his wife at the mansion, none of his parents were here.
She sneaked into the crowd, came to Grandpa's side, and asked in a low voice: "Grandpa, have you seen my father?"
Yu Lichun glanced in the direction of King Yang, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he whispered: "Your parents are waiting at your house—take it easy, don't offend the nobleman."
Out of the corner of Zhu Junyang's eyes, he saw that little girl, like a nimble squirrel, crawling around in the crowd, talking in a low voice, like a kitten trying to steal a fish. How can a person's expression be so flexible and changeable. What a fun guy! He didn't realize it himself, as long as Xiaocao appeared, his eyes would always follow her involuntarily.
Yu Xiaocao squeezed out of the crowd and came to the respectful grandfather of the village chief. She looked at Zhu Junyang with a smile, and said in a loud voice, "Little Duke, are you going directly to the field, or come to my house to rest first?"
Wu Deshun looked at the sun, he didn't bother the master with such trivial matters as in the past, let him do it for him: "The sun is just right now, let's go to the field first..."
"After riding the horse for so long, I'm a bit tired..." Zhu Junyang suddenly wanted to see what kind of family raised such a quirky little girl.
Wu Deshun hurriedly changed his words: "Miss Yu, please lead the way!"
Yu Xiaocao walked obediently in front, and behind her a red pony that had not yet grown up followed closely behind. Zhu Junyang realized that the pony's reins were not in the hands of the little girl, but obediently followed closely. It was a well-behaved and docile horse, just right for a little girl her age to ride.
Yu Xiaocao walked in the front, followed by King Yang and his entourage, followed by the newly appointed magistrate of Tanggu County, officials of the county government, and finally the village head and several respected old people in the village. Hulala, a group of people, soon came to Yu's old house.
Zhu Junyang looked at the brand-new green brick and tile house, compared with the high gate compound in the capital, this place is extremely simple. A simple quadrangle courtyard, a large open yard, and lush green vegetables on both sides of the green brick path in the courtyard...
There are no complicated buildings, no cascading pavilions, no precious flowers and trees, but there is tranquility and warmth in the simplicity, which makes it easy for people to open their hearts, let go of all the heavy thoughts in their hearts, and return to the countryside and nature...
In front of the door of the main room in the courtyard, under a peach tree in full bloom, beside a stone table carved according to the shape of the stone, there are several stone stools of different shapes. The cotton cushion made of various fabrics on the stool looks warm in the cold.
Yu Xiaocao looked at the formation of the people who came, and moved out all the chairs and stools in the house, but it was still not enough. She scratched her head, and said embarrassedly: "How about... I go to Aunt Zhou's house to borrow some stools?"
"No, no! Let's just stand!" Zhao Zixuan, the new magistrate of Tanggu County, said hastily. Just kidding, who is at the same level as the county prince
In the end, except for King Yang who was sitting, everyone else stood beside him as if forced to stand. Yu Xiaocao looked a little awkward, but the ancient concept of superiority and inferiority cannot be changed by a little girl like her. From the vegetable field in the backyard, she picked a plate of overripe tomatoes, picked a few crispy and tender cucumbers, cut a large watermelon stored at home, and filled the entire stone table before choosing the watermelon with satisfaction. Raise your eyebrows—this is how you treat guests!
County Magistrate Zhao looked at the cucumbers served and almost choked on his saliva—isn't it too weird to entertain the county prince with cucumbers
"After walking such a long distance, why don't you quench your thirst with some melon and fruit first?" Yu Xiaocao took a piece of watermelon and enthusiastically handed it to the Xiaojun Wang. Yesterday at godfather's house, this guy ate a lot of watermelon in a row, and even booked a car, he must really like it, right
