The food from the treasury has not been allocated, because the autumn harvest has not yet arrived, and now it will be the autumn harvest in ten days. You Miao looked at the barren fields along the road and knew that trouble was coming.
"It's not up to you to manage the disaster relief work." Li Zhifeng asked.
You Miao shook her head and said, "The Ministry of Household has to submit a letter to the Ministry of Household for such a serious disaster. I hope the young boy can withstand it."
You Miao only knew that the drought was severe, but he didn't know it had reached this point. From Yangzhou to Liuzhou, the ten fields were nine red, the stream was dry, and he didn't even need to detour and cross the bridge when he crossed the opposite bank.
The sky was full of stars, and when it was approaching the Yangtze River, I finally smelled a little water vapor. There were a lot of waterwheels along the way, and there was probably some irrigation water in the canal.
Li Zhifeng dismounted and washed his face by the canal wearing starlight, while You Miao inspected the nearby rice ears. Although there was water for irrigation, it was not optimistic.
After returning to the villa that night, it was quiet. The entire Jiangbo Villa was fertile and wild, and even the Guozhuang in the south was irrigated with water. The fragrance of the rice was bursting out, and You Miao was overjoyed, but also vaguely worried. There are water trucks to take care of my land, and the harvest is good. However, along the way, many places are horribly dry, and most of the farmers leave their houses empty.
The servant on duty at night was overjoyed to see You Miao coming back, and You Miao hurriedly signaled not to be disturbed.
"Have Sister Qian slept?" Li Zhifeng asked.
The servant said: "I just fell asleep not long ago, so I'll wake up and make a late-night snack for the young master."
Chang Yuan woke up with sleepy eyes and hurriedly went to get food—the eight servants that You Miao brought back then have all become the main stewards, and the whole villa is managed by these people.
Back at his home, You Miao was a little unfamiliar. He went into the room with Li Zhifeng after having a late-night snack. After three months of work, he was finally able to rest for a few days. That night, Li Zhifeng, like a hungry wolf who hadn't eaten for months, hugged You Miao and did it all night.
When it was dawn, You Miao fell asleep in a daze, hugging Li Zhifeng, thinking how the two of them were still like a newly married couple after being together for so many years. In this life, Li Zhifeng has completely fallen into his hands.
However, not long after You Miao fell asleep, there was a sound outside, and someone said, "Why don't you get up?" Pushing the door and entering, Li Zhifeng immediately got up.
It was the first time that You Miao broke into the room without saying hello, and immediately became in a hurry. He woke up most of the time as soon as he fell asleep. Li Zhifeng said angrily, "Who is guarding the outside of the room!"
Li Zhifeng wrapped his robes and went out, but confronted You Dechuan. You Dechuan's face was flushed, his beard was shaking, and he said coldly, "You... you... You Miao!"
You Dechuan was not stupid either. When he saw his son and a man naked in the bed, he knew what was going on. You Miao also put on his clothes and came out. So pretty.
The Wang family also came, seeing the situation, he was busy pulling You Dechuan away.
The servants hurried over to guard the courtyard gate.
You Miao wanted to get mad on the spot, but he didn't bother the old man for a few months, so what's the matter? You Miao and Li Zhifeng looked at each other for a long while, but You Miao burst out laughing for some reason.
Li Zhifeng was also very helpless, You Miao waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it."
That day, You Miao packed up and sat down in the hall after dinner. You Dechuan's expression was still very unnatural. You Miao sat down, and Li Zhifeng went to make tea. You Miao asked, "What's the matter?"
You Dechuan breathed a long sigh, as if he wanted to teach You Miao a lesson, and was a little afraid of You Miao's authority, so Wang tugged You Dechuan's sleeves aside, signaling that he should not break it earlier in the morning.
You Dechuan thought about it again and again, and said, "The news from your brother from Maocheng says that Liuzhou has been recaptured."
"Yeah." You Miao said casually, still a little dissatisfied.
You Dechuan asked again, "Can you find your Majesty's place to return to our house?"
"I'm afraid it won't work now." You Miao felt annoyed after hearing this. You Dechuan asked him several times, either to make You Hange an official or to ask him to find Zhao Chao's land, which made him uncomfortable.
You Dechuan added: "I heard that you are very busy in the political affairs hall? Your brother came to look for you several times, but he was blocked by the concierge..."
Wang Shi immediately smiled and said: "Look at what you said, is Miaozi still hiding from his brother? Your father can't speak, Miaozi, don't take it to heart..."
You Miao said: "I want to go to the morning court. When I'm not in the morning, I eat at the barracks with Li Zhifeng at night. If I have anything to do, ask my elder brother to bring me a note and leave it at the concierge. When I see the note, I will go to the Ministry of Household to see him. ."
You Dechuan stopped, looked at Li Zhifeng, and then at You Miao, thinking about what to say, but Li Zhifeng smiled lightly and said, "Uncle Shi, drink tea."
The servant came to bring tea to You Dechuan, but You Dechuan didn't know what to say. After a while, he asked again: "When will we be able to return the land of Biyu Villa?"
"I don't know..." You Miao already had a headache. She thought she was coming back to rest for a few days, and said, "I'll try my best."
You Dechuan said: "For the past month, scholars in Liuzhou have been saying that they can go back soon."
You Miao thought that she should keep her words open, lest You Dechuan go out and make a fool of himself, so he said: "Father, let me tell you the truth, no matter who owns the land in Liuzhou, it is impossible to get it back, so you can rest assured in the villa. Just stay."
You Dechuan was suddenly startled, and You Miao said again, "As soon as Liuzhou was recovered, Nie Dan was not sure he would be able to capture it. I'm afraid that there will be some things going on in the back and forth battle, so you can live in the villa with peace of mind."
You Dechuan frowned: "What can happen?"
You Dechuan's appearance seemed to have a dream. He was shattered by You Miao's blow, and became a lot older overnight. After all, it may have been many years, You Miao looked at his father and thought.
How could the old man have such a downhearted day... You Miao thought of his mother, who was serious back then and brought thousands of tea seedlings from the Qiao family to prepare a foundation for him. In the end, it ended up in this field, it was really thirty years Hedong, thirty years Hexi... If the mother in the spirit of heaven found out, I don't know what to think.
You Dechuan didn't want to leave for a while, You Miao wanted to go out to avoid it, looked at the villa, and gave Li Zhifeng a wink, Li Zhifeng would get interested and follow him out.
Jiangbo Villa was full of abundant scenery. Although the sky was clear and people were sweating, it should be a good harvest. The tenants stood up and greeted You Miao one after another.
Just after walking a few steps, Fluulight came to report on horseback in the distance.
"Young Master!" Yaoguang shouted while riding on his horse, "Someone is coming from Maocheng! It is said that General Li is called to enter the court, and we have something to discuss!"
You Miao went mad when she heard this: "Tell the person here! General Li is not here!"
Li Zhifeng hurriedly stopped You Miao and asked Yaoguang, "Where is it? Is the Ministry of War under General Nie's command?"
"The harem!" Yaoguang said.
