Chapter 973 Complaint
Due to the arrival of the officials, Daohua had to meet some female relatives. After finishing her work, the spring plowing was over, but Daohua still took Daozi to Daohua Village.
One is to relax, and the other is to let his son have more contact with nature and learn more about farm life.
The yield of upland rice grown last year was pretty good, and the Four Seasons Grain Store has begun selling rice seeds and rice.
The yield of the sweet potatoes brought by Li Xingnian was about 15 shi per mu, which made everyone extremely happy.
Except for a small part that was sent to the palace for Daohua and others to try out, the rest were all used for breeding and were planted during spring plowing this year.
Daohua looked at the lush sweet potato seedlings and said: "Harvest another batch this year, and we can start selling sweet potato seeds next year. By then, people will have another kind of food on their tables."
Yan Shouhou, who was standing next to him, said with a smile: "Sweet potatoes are as high-yielding as potatoes. Once these two foods are promoted, the people of Xiliang will no longer be hungry."
Daohua stood on the ridge of the field, watching her son and the children from the tenant family running wildly all over the field, and the corner of her mouth curled up involuntarily.
After Daozi arrived at Zhuangzi, Daohua never restrained him and allowed him to play all the games in the countryside with other children, letting him unleash his nature to his heart's content.
Two days later, Daohua returned home with Daozi.
On the carriage, Daohua asked Daozi with a smile: "Is it fun to go to Zhuangzi?"
Daozi nodded: "It's fun." In the mansion, he had an amusement park, and in the village, although there were no toys, the fellow tenants also had many fun games.
"Mom, I want to raise a dog too! Tiedan's family has a big dog, and he can ride it around."
Daohua doesn't really want her son to have a dog. If he is bitten, there is no rabies vaccine here: "Dogs are not for riding. You have to really like it. When you are older, let your father teach you to ride a horse."
It’s much more majestic than riding a dog.”
Dao Zi also likes horses, and his attention was immediately diverted: "Then when can I let dad teach me how to ride a horse?"
Daohua wanted to take the opportunity to teach her son arithmetic, so she said: "After he is ten years old."
Daozi stretched out his hands and started counting on his fingers.
Daohua smiled and watched her son count on his fingers. Normally, she would consciously teach Daozi how to count. The little guy has already learned addition and subtraction within ten.
After a while, Daozi looked at Daohua with a pouted mouth: "Mom, we have to wait for a long time!"
Daohua said deliberately: "Soon!"
Daozi immediately retorted: "Jiu, I have to wait six years before I can learn to ride a horse."
Seeing that her son was right, Daohua smiled and kissed her son's bulging cheek: "You are still young and can't control the horse. When you can control the horse, you will naturally be able to ride it. However, when your father is free,
When the time comes, you can ask him to take you riding a horse."
Daozi reluctantly said: "Okay."
It may be that Daozi was deeply impressed by the children of the tenant family riding dogs. After returning to the palace, when he learned that there were two big black dogs in the palace, the little guy immediately shouted that he wanted to ride the dogs.
After Daohua found out, she wanted to take two puppies to raise for Daozi, but Daohua refused to do anything and insisted on the two big dogs.
Then I stopped going to the amusement park every day, ignored the ducks, and walked the dog every day.
The hunting dog has been kept in captivity for many years and has become very docile. With Bishi watching, Daohua was not worried that her son would be bitten, so she simply let him go.
One day, Daohua saw her son running to walk the dog just after dinner. She had a headache when she saw Xiao Yeyang coming back with the dog Xiaoyi.
"Why did you bring Gou Xiaoyi back?"
Because of his excellent tracking ability, Gou Xiaoyi was always placed in the Jinlingwei office.
Xiao Yeyang asked Defu to lead the dog Xiaoyi down, and after entering the inner room, he said: "Uncle Huang sent others to take over the Jinling Guards."
Daohua was stunned: "Uncle Huang, what is this?"
Xiao Yeyang was very indifferent: "The Jin Ling Guards are the imperial uncle's personal guards who supervise all officials. Now that I am the highest official in Xiliang, I can no longer supervise the Jin Ling Guards."
Seeing Daohua's silence, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, this doesn't mean that Uncle Huang doesn't trust me anymore. Uncle Huang values Xiliang and naturally wants to know everything about Xiliang."
"Actually, even if Uncle Huang doesn't send anyone here, I will still look for opportunities to give Uncle Huang a break. Now I only need to govern Xiliang well. It's not good to have too much power in my hands."
"Now that someone has taken over Jin Lingwei, I can feel much more relaxed."
Daohua: "As long as you know what's going on, uncle Huang... they say that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. You can't go wrong by being cautious."
Xiao Yeyang hugged Daohua: "Don't worry, I know how to get along with Uncle Huang."
Daohua asked again: "By the way, how are the new officials?"
Xiao Yeyang: "It's not bad, I can do things."
Daohua: "Of the older princes of the imperial uncle, it seems that the fourth prince has not sent anyone to Xiliang. I think he is the really smart one."
Xiao Yeyang agreed with his face: "Yes, the eldest prince has been jumping up and down these years. It is not as valuable as the fourth prince to be quiet and do his duty. It's just a pity that the fourth prince has an ear disease."
Daohua: "As long as Uncle Huang thinks about the Fourth Prince, the Fourth Prince's Mansion will be much better off. I think that kid Mo Feng is quite smart."
Xiao Yeyang looked around the room: "Where is my son?"
Daohua rubbed her forehead, her face full of helplessness: "I went to walk the dog."
......
Time flies to May.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Xiao Yeyang hosted a banquet for officials from Liangdu at the palace.
Yu Shao, Shi Yan, Su Hongxin and others sat in the pavilion with Xiao Yeyang, talking and eating watermelon, grapes and strawberries on the table.
Even a few members of the prince's maternal family no longer care about being reserved at this time.
After all, Xiliang is not as prosperous as the capital. Fruits here are very scarce. Even if you have money, you can’t find anyone to buy them.
Seeing everyone's unsightly eating looks, Xiao Yeyang's eyes flashed with a hint of pride. His Yiyi was so powerful that he could grow delicious food wherever he went.
After thinking about it seriously, it seems that since I met Yiyi, he has never been short of delicious food.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, everyone heard a rapid thumping sound. When they turned around, they saw a tiger-headed little boy running towards them with short legs, followed by many maids and women.
sub.
Xiao Yeyang looked a little surprised when he saw his son coming. Before he could speak, the little guy ran into the pavilion and asked him angrily:
"Dad, do you still care about your wife?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a brief silence in the pavilion.
Everyone looked shocked at first, and after a while, they all lowered their heads silently, and many people's shoulders were shaking.
Xiao Yeyang took a deep breath, looked at his son's red cheeks from running, and looked at himself with aggrieved eyes. He wanted to be angry but couldn't get angry, so he could only ask pretending to be serious: "Why are you here?
Have you? I’ll meet you uncles soon.”
Dao Zi was now very good at reading people's faces. Seeing Xiao Yeyang's stern face and pouting, he reluctantly bowed to everyone and said, "Well, uncles and uncles."
Yu Shao immediately laughed and said: "So this is the young prince. It turns out that he has a tiger father and no dog son. At first glance, he looks like a dragon or a phoenix among men."
Others followed suit.
