Chu Lixiang was very clingy to Jiang Xinyan, and Jiang Zihao was also very clingy to his sister. The two of them stood on either side of Jiang Xinyan, and would glare at each other from time to time.

Song Mingjiang refused to go out to play even if he asked them. Jiang Zihao was not familiar with them, and Chu Lixiang was afraid that Jiang Zihao would steal his sister-in-law.

But the two of them are very smart and don't quarrel. At most they glare at each other, and Jiang Xinyan wants to laugh when she looks at them.

Jiang Xinyan chatted with her grandmother, grandmother, and Jin Niang for half an hour, while Chu Lixiang stood beside him, serving tea and water, and would add a few words from time to time, making everyone laugh.

Jiang Zihao was different. He didn't know anyone here, so he couldn't get in the conversation, but he wasn't bothered at all. He wanted to know everything about his sister.

So he especially liked to hear everyone greeting his sister. When Master Jinghui learned that she was her grandson, Master Jinghui, who had spent most of her life cultivating herself, burst into tears.

He held Jiang Zihao's hand and refused to let go, "My child, you have endured hardship. From now on, you can live here with your sister."

"Thank you, Master." Jiang Zihao was surprised that his sister's master still liked him!

"Brother Xiang, it's still early for dinner. You ask Xu Feng to drive the carriage and take Brother Zihao to choose a mansion. We will all move tomorrow."

Jiang Xinyan couldn't bear to see her grandmother sad, and when she was still tearful at her age, she sent Jiang Zihao away first.

"Okay, brother Zihao, we will move into our new home tomorrow. Sister-in-law, I have a bookboy and a boy, but brother Zihao doesn't have one. Can I give one to him?"

Chu Lixiang stared blankly, but he also knew that Jiang Zihao was his elder sister-in-law's biological brother, and he wanted to treat him well.

"Two people around you are not enough. Last time Wei Dabin bought a group of maids and servants for training in Youzhou City. Tomorrow Zihao will go and pick a few people. If you see the right ones, pick two more." Jiang Xinyan ordered them.

"Hey, I listen to my sister-in-law. As long as brother Zihao has it, let's go pick out a yard first."

"As for Zihao's mansion, let's pick it next door to your and Brother Zheng's mansion. Go and pick out the mansion first. Then your brother-in-law will help you draw the interior decoration drawings for you to choose. Tomorrow, we will move to Brother Xiang and Brother Zheng's place to pick out the mansion.

Live in a courtyard first.”

Jiang Xinyan was worried that Jiang Zihao would live alone in an empty mansion. They had not grown up yet, so they could live in the same mansion first and then separate when they got married.

"Okay! I still have several courtyards in my house. Come on, brother Zihao, you can choose the courtyard you want."

Haha! It’s best to live with me, so that you don’t have the chance to monopolize the sister-in-law alone. Chu Lixiang is still a bit cautious.

He was particularly active in dragging Jiang Zihao to choose a yard in his mansion. Jiang Zihao left with Chu Lixiang as if in a dream.

The people here are so nice! On the way, he started to talk: "Brother Xiang, are your eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law the owners of this castle?"

"Not at all!"

Jiang Zihao: "..." No? Then why does everyone here listen to his brother-in-law and sister!

"Brother Zihao, this Xuanyan City belongs to my sister-in-law alone. My eldest brother also belongs to my sister-in-law. We are all hers."

Chu Lixiang patted his small breasts and said arrogantly that his sister-in-law's belongings belong to him anyway, and he would rather that everything belongs to his sister-in-law, not his elder brother's.

It would be too scary for his eldest brother without his eldest sister-in-law by his side, but with his eldest sister-in-law around, they are no longer afraid of his eldest brother.

Jiang Zihao: "..." The little brat was really unlovable. He didn't speak in paragraphs instead of writing an article, which shocked him.

When they walked to Zhuque Street together, Jiang Zihao already knew everything he should know. His sister and brother-in-law were really powerful.

It turned out that he had raised so many people. If he had known that his brother-in-law was so powerful, he would have regretted not picking up some refugees fleeing from famine on the road.

For such a big castle, less than 80,000 people are too small. No wonder his sister and brother-in-law want to support the Zhenxi Army.

If the city gate is breached by Xi Chu, a large number of people will die, and the population will be even smaller. It would be great if there is no war!

Jiang Zihao was escaping all the way, and he kept describing a picture of Dongchen Kingdom's mountains and rivers in his mind. There were not many ink dots, but there were too many tears, and the mountains and rivers were about to be broken.

He had been starving to death a few days ago, and he kept dreaming that it would be great if a god was sent from heaven to stop the war and distribute some food to everyone.

Now that he heard that his brother-in-law and sister had endless food, he wished he could stop the war immediately and all the refugees fleeing the famine came to Xuanyan City to help his sister farm.

"Brother Zihao has arrived, what are you thinking about? I've called you several times." Chu Lixiang's eyes widened and he shook Jiang Zihao's arm dissatisfied.

"Brother Xiang, I'm sorry, I was just thinking about something, wow! This is your mansion? It's bigger than our Prime Minister's mansion!" Jiang Zihao was shocked.

"Brother Zihao, the row opposite has been chosen by the generals. You can only choose this side. Should you choose the mansion first or go to my house and choose the courtyard first?"

"First go to your house and choose a yard. You will move in tomorrow. There is no rush for anything else." Jiang Zihao is still a very measured person.

He has been taught by his prime minister father since he was a child, and he is considered a stable young man. Moreover, he is also extremely smart, so no matter how shocked he is, he quickly accepts the facts.

The next day, everyone in the castle was busy moving, and they set off homemade firecrackers and fireworks in a lively manner.

It was another feast of nine plates and ten bowls, happily celebrating everyone's move to a new house. Xu Feng rewarded them with two chicken drumsticks, and Dai Yuntao and his subordinates added another drumstick.

Others just ate braised chicken nuggets because there were not enough chicken legs. No one was jealous. They were just thinking that they would be the ones to try to add chicken legs next time.

After being busy for a few days, Jiang Xinyan and his wife took everyone to inventory the tools for harvesting rice. They started preparing before they went to Yumen Pass.

Everyone is gearing up to harvest rice, which is the fruit of their labor and their hope.

At this time, the scenery inside the castle was completely different from the scenery outside. Everywhere outside was desolate and overgrown with weeds.

Everyone felt that the sky in their castle was extraordinarily high and blue, with white clouds floating in the high blue sky.

Under the blue sky, there are rice fields as far as the eye can see. The early rice has begun to ripen, turning yellow and orange, as if it were paved with gold.

Everyone counted out the newly made sickles, new rice threshers, and newly made windmills, which are standard equipment for harvesting rice during double raids.

The rice thresher is an early pedal rice thresher of later generations, mainly used for threshing rice. It consists of a rectangular open wooden barrel, pedals, gears, bearings and rollers.

It is impossible to use a modern, slightly more advanced electric rice thresher, let alone a harvester.

Since there is no electricity, it would be great if Jiang Xinyan could make a pedal rice beater...
