Mu Yexiao had already caught up with Qian Jiujiu at this time. Seeing Qian Jiujiu's wrinkled face, he knew that Qian Jiujiu was still unhappy about this matter.
"What's wrong? Are you still unhappy? You did a good thing today."
Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao and said, "Yes, I did a good thing, but Yu Guang still plotted against me."
Mu Yexiao laughed: "Then Yu Guang has no other choice. This time they have offended Master Lin. You know, Master Lin is a person who will never give up if he makes any mistake."
"You said Yu Guang and the others were yours, but you were unwilling to protect them. So you can imagine what fate awaits them."
Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao blankly: "So what you mean is that I should have accepted the medicine garden just now?"
Mu Yexiao shook his head and said, "No, you were right to confiscate it. It's not good to accept those things in front of so many people. Okay, Yue Niang will handle this matter."
Qian Jiujiu snorted: "Why do I feel it's such a coincidence? Mu Yexiao, don't let me know that this matter has anything to do with you, otherwise, I won't let you off easily."
Mu Yexiao coughed twice, and Yue Niang also heard this. She turned her head and stopped looking at the prince, for fear of being exposed. To be honest, Mu Yexiao already knew about this matter.
After all, Yue Niang is his subordinate, so she would naturally ask him for help first when she has difficulties. He just wants to find a few burdens for Qian Jiujiu to prevent her from leaving so quickly.
After all, being able to hold her back for a while is good enough. However, he didn't expect Qian Jiujiu to be so sensitive. He could only laugh dryly.
"Okay, don't be so stern. Didn't you come out to relax? I think you should stop being unhappy. If you don't go up the mountain, forget about going today."
Qian Jiujiu snorted: "I'm already here, how can I not go!"
The group arrived at the foot of the mountain again. At this time, smoke was rising from every household. It was obviously time to make lunch. Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao.
The group continued to climb the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, they came to a flat area. Hong Chou looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "My Lord, my Princess, let's take a rest here."
"It's a flat land with water, so we can cook."
Qian Jiujiu nodded: "Okay, Nanfeng, go and hunt two wild rabbits, and we will have roasted rabbits later."
Nanfeng glanced at Mu Yexiao, who nodded. Then Nanfeng went to hunt for wild animals. Qian Jiujiu looked at Hongling and said, "Hongling, let's go for a walk too."
"Let's see if there are any wild delicacies on the mountain."
Hong Ling naturally stood up obediently and followed Qian Jiujiu to look for it, while the others began to prepare lunch. As expected, God will not let down those who work hard.
Qian Jiujiu quickly found pecans in the mountains. These were good stuff. Qian Jiujiu liked eating this kind of stuff and couldn't help but smile.
Looking at Hongling: "Hongling, let's go pick pecans."
Hongling had no idea what hickory nuts were, but seeing Qianjiujiu happily running towards the tree, she followed and looked at the hard thing on it.
But Qian Jiujiu was picking very enthusiastically, so I helped. The two of them picked a lot, until there were almost no more to pick, and then they turned around and walked back.
Qian Jiujiu came to Mu Yexiao, glanced at him, then picked up a stone and cracked the walnut open: "Here, try it and see how it tastes."
After that, Qian Jiujiu ate another one by herself. Mm, it was a pure natural delicacy. It was really delicious. Mu Yexiao certainly did not disappoint Qian Jiujiu's kindness.
After eating one, it tasted good. He looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Jiuer likes to eat this kind of food. Should I ask someone to pick some more for you?"
Qian Jiujiu shook his head: "No, there are enough here. Leave these things to the villagers at the foot of the mountain to pick. After picking them, they can sell them for some money and buy some meat for their families."
Listening to Qian Jiujiu's words, Mu Yexiao immediately thought of Qian Jiujiu's past life. Did he also need to go up the mountain to collect things to exchange for meat? A hint of heartache flashed in his eyes.
This must be the case, otherwise, how would she know? Looking at Qian Jiujiu, Mu Yexiao had no choice but to agree: "Okay, then I'll wait until they finish picking, and then I'll collect them."
Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao and smiled at him: "Mu Yexiao, have I ever told you that you are a good person?"
The corner of Mu Yexiao's mouth twitched: "You say that often."
Qian Jiujiu smiled and said, "That means what I said is true. Mu Yexiao, you are a good person."
Hearing Qian Jiujiu say this again, Mu Yexiao couldn't help but laugh: "Then will you stay because I'm a good person?"
Qian Jiujiu blinked his eyes: "There are so many good people in this world. I won't stop for a good person."
A hint of sadness flashed across Mu Yexiao's eyes, but Qian Jiujiu turned her head away and didn't see it. Seeing Hong Chou still washing something by the water, she stood up.
She went in another direction to see if there were any wild vegetables. To be honest, she had never eaten any natural wild vegetables in her life!
The original owner's memory in her mind was particularly good at wild vegetables, so she must have gone to find some wild vegetables to taste. She just made a circle around the woods.
I didn't find any wild vegetables, but I found something familiar. Is this a sweet potato vine? Qian Jiujiu couldn't remember how sweet potatoes matured in his previous life.
And she was still a little unsure whether it was a sweet potato vine or not, so she decided to pull it out and have a look, maybe it was! There was also a large patch here, and it looked like it was planted by humans.
Qian Jiujiu waved her hands and started digging the soil. Qinglian saw her and ran over: "Princess, what are you doing? What are you digging? I will help you."
Hearing Qinglian's voice, everyone's eyes fell on Qian Jiujiu. Qian Jiujiu was suddenly embarrassed. She was excited the moment she saw the sweet potato.
He looked at Qinglian and said, "Then help me dig the soil. I want to see what fruit is under this vine?"
Qinglian responded and started digging the soil. Qian Jiujiu stood up at this time, went to the river to wash her hands, came in front of Mu Yexiao, looked at Mu Yexiao's mischievous eyes, and felt a little embarrassed.
"Jiu'er, did you see something good up there?"
Qian Jiujiu chuckled: "If I hadn't seen this, I wouldn't have remembered that the food in our Great Zhou Kingdom is too monotonous?"
The Great Zhou Kingdom only needed rice, white flour, and black flour. The dishes were also quite simple, just some commonly eaten dishes, without tomatoes or anything like that.
Fortunately, people in this world have started eating chili peppers, otherwise Qian Jiujiu, who loves spicy food, would have no idea how to live. Mu Yexiao was puzzled when he heard Qian Jiujiu's words.
"What do you mean by eating too monotonous? Could it be that the thing you just found can be eaten as food?"
Qian Jiujiu blinked his eyes and said, "Of course, if there really is a drought, then the things here might still be of some use!"
"It's just that the number is a little small, and it doesn't have much effect."
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu with amusement, but still tried to comfort her: "Well, the drought is still uncertain! You've already started to worry."
Qian Jiujiu frowned when he heard this: "I just feel that if there really is a drought, I'm afraid that many people will be displaced and leave their homes. It's so pitiful."
Mu Yexiao didn't say anything, just kept silent for a while: "That's unpredictable. Okay, I'll tell you when the news is confirmed. Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!"
Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes and said, "I see. I'm not worried. I just saw that thing and was inspired. By the way, Hong Ling."
Hong Ling heard Qian Jiujiu's voice from a distance: "Princess, are you calling me a servant?"
Qian Jiujiu hummed and looked at Hong Ling: "We bought this mountain?"
Hong Ling nodded: "Yes, we will buy all the 20 nearby small barren mountains and this mountain, because this mountain is at the outermost part. When we plant medicinal herbs, no one else will be allowed to come up."
"So I decided to buy it together. What's wrong?"
Qian Jiujiu frowned. She just said that she would give those people mountain products. Now the mountain is hers. How can those people pick them? And after seeing the sweet potato vines.
Qian Jiujiu changed her mind and thought of the sweet potato vines. Qinglian over there had been digging for so long and finally stopped, running over with a bunch of sweet potatoes.
"Princess, I dug it out. Is this what you want?"
Looking at those familiar sweet potatoes of different sizes, Qian Jiujiu smiled: "These are what I want. Go wash them all, and then bring them over to me to roast."
Is this thing also eaten roasted? No one else understood, even Nanny Wan just smiled and looked at Qian Jiujiu, looking at the sweet potato in her hand. She had also eaten this thing.
I was just very hungry at that time, so I went up the mountain to find a little bit to eat. I didn't expect Jiuer had remembered it.
Soon the sweet potatoes were roasted, and the game that Nanfeng had brought back was also roasted, and the whole forest was filled with fragrance. Qian Jiujiu was eating roasted sweet potatoes.
Thinking about what happened in the medicine garden today, Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao and handed him a sweet potato: "My Lord, let's discuss something."
Mu Yexiao glanced at Qian Jiujiu. Every time Qian Jiujiu spoke in this tone and reacted this way, it meant that nothing good was going to happen after spending a few months together.
Mu Yexiao could be said to remember every move of Qian Jiujiu clearly. He couldn't help but cough and looked at Qian Jiujiu: "I wonder what Jiuer wants to do?"
Qian Jiujiu coughed twice and said, "Be my backer. From now on, whether it's business or farming, I'll split my profits with you in half. What do you think?"
After saying this, Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes to act cute.
