Chapter 48: The Harvest
When Wang Jiqing returned to Moon Island a month later, the entire Moon Island was very different from when she left. The wharf on the www.biquge.info island has been completed, standing on the wharf square paved with big bluestone, looking at the neat and clean streets in front of her, Wang Ji is full of emotion. Three months ago, it was a barren desert island, but it finally has the prototype of a city.
"Miss, get in the car." Qianyu and Yang Lie came to the dock to greet their young lady together, and seeing that Wang Ji's expression was satisfied, Qianyu said, "Miss, there are even bigger surprises waiting for you." ”
"What surprise? Don't you want to drink your wine? Wang Ji looked at the two people in front of her lightly and joked with a smile. Qianyu and Yang Lie didn't know when they saw each other, since they came to Moon Island, the two of them have been in contact for more time, and their relationship has been even better. Wang Ji saw that there was a personal affair between the two early on, but she didn't break it, just waiting for the two to tell her in person.
Qianyu, this girl, has followed her since she was a child, and her character and temperament naturally didn't say anything, and Yang Lie has been with her for more than half a year, and she also attaches great importance to this guard leader with a rough appearance and a delicate heart. If the two can finally be together, Wang Jiqing will naturally be happy to see it. She hopes that the people around her can have a good home.
"What did you say, Miss?" Qianyu, who has always been spicy and generous, saw that her young lady was making fun of herself, and she was also a little embarrassed. "You haven't married yet, how can a slave and maid get married!" When Yang Lie heard this, he just smiled beside him, looked at Qianyu, and did not speak.
"Really? Then our Yang leader has to have an opinion. "Follow Wang Jiqing back to Moon Island with a pity, stand aside and joke." Thirteen Niang, did you say? ”
Thirteen Niang smiled, but did not speak. She only followed Miss later, and she didn't like the love between Qianxi and Qianyu who grew up since childhood, and she can play around at will. I don't have much time with Qianyu and Yang Lie, and I haven't gotten acquainted with that yet, so it's inconvenient to talk and laugh at this time.
Wang Ji looked down on the affection between the two of them at the corners of their eyebrows and eyes, and stopped joking, and helped Thirteen Niang into the carriage. This wagon had only recently been transported to Tsukishima along with the convoy carrying grain, and there had never been a wagon on the island when I left.
The carriage slowly drove towards the farm on the island, and Wang Ji, who was sitting in the car, looked at the houses on both sides that were not yet inhabited, nodded and smiled.
"Stop." After waiting for the living quarters divided on the island, Wang Ji easily stopped the carriage.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Yang Lie, who was following outside the car, hurriedly stepped forward to reply.
"I'm going to get out of the car and go for a walk," said Wang Ji, who lightly grabbed Thirteen Niang's hand and jumped out of the carriage. "I'm going to see the farmland for myself."
In the distance, in the large area of farmland that is still being cultivated, there are many busy figures.
"Miss, we are clearing the gravel in the soil," Yang Lie said as he walked behind Wang Jiqing, "According to the current progress, we can clear all the land on the island next spring." ”
"It's still a little slower." Wang Ji listened lightly, and secretly frowned, but her feet did not stop, and she continued to walk towards the north. "In a few days, there will be 3,000 guards on the island, all of which will be arranged by you, and all the wasteland on the island must be reclaimed by the end of the month."
"Yes, miss."
…………………………………………………
When Wang Jiqing returned to the foot of the North Mountain of Tsukishima and looked at the cornfield, he understood what the surprise was that Qianyu said.
Looking at the corn plants that were more than one person tall, there were already fat dolls that were half a foot long, and Rao was usually calm, and Wang Jiqing, who was usually calm, couldn't help crying.
Since coming into this world, no one knows the uneasiness in her heart. When she knew that this was a court situation full of heroes, she didn't know when the war would break out, and she didn't know when she would lose her home? Maybe today she is still the daughter of a family with no worries about food and clothing, and tomorrow she will become a wandering beggar who has no food to eat.
She left Jiangzhou by retiring her relatives, pushing the boat down the river, trying her best to get corn, and finding Yuedao with great difficulty, didn't she just want to leave a way back for herself and the Wang family in the war? Now that corn can be grown on the island this month, the problem of food has been solved, so I will naturally not be afraid in the future.
The corn is finally grown! The emperor lived up to his hard work, and he finally had enough corn seeds.
When everyone around him saw this, they were all shocked! Miss, what's the matter, why did you suddenly start crying. Since a few people followed the young lady, they have always seen the young lady's calm and breezy appearance, and they have never seen the young lady cry so out of shape.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that her young lady was crying sadly, she hurriedly stepped forward, hugged her in her arms, and comforted her softly, "Miss, don't be sad, even if this land is not planted well, let's just start over, don't we still have corn seeds." Although the slave has never planted the land, she also knows that there is nothing good to grow in the autumn, and when spring begins, we will plant again, and in the spring, we will definitely be able to plant it. Don't cry anymore, beware of crying and breaking your body,....."
Listening to some incoherent comfort, the guards who were in charge of planting corn came back to their senses and knelt down to plead guilty.
"Please forgive Miss, it's all because my subordinates didn't do their jobs well, didn't plant these corns well, and lived up to Miss's expectations,......"
"No, you're doing a good job." After crying, Wang Jiqing, the deep uneasiness in her heart was finally diluted by the tears just now. "You're doing better than I expected, get up and stand up."
Taking the handkerchief handed by Qianyu, Wang Ji wiped away her tears. She turned around, straightened the corners of her clothes to the few guards who were planting corn standing in front of her, and solemnly bowed. "I am for the Wang family and the people of the world, thank you!"
Seeing this, several guards hurriedly got out of the way, "Miss, the subordinates don't dare to be it." "Isn't it just to help the young lady plant some rare objects, where is it worthy of the gift of your own young lady.
Wang Ji saw the looks of a few people and knew that they didn't know what they had grown, but it didn't matter. Soon they will find out.
"Brother Yang," Wang Ji held back his mind, it will take a certain amount of time before the corn is fully ripe, and there must be no accidents during this time, especially those monkeys on the mountain, and they must be guarded against, "You go and arrange a hundred reliable guards, day and night, to surround this place for me." From now on, no one or animal can come within 100 feet of this place without my permission. Especially to prevent the group of monkeys on the hill from coming down and spoiling the corn. ”
"Yes, miss." Yang Lie didn't think that his young lady was making a big fuss. In the past few days of following Miss, he knows that although Miss is not very old, her temperament is rare and steady. Now that Miss values this place so much, I'm afraid that this corn really has some extraordinary origins.
Since then, everyone on the island has known that their sixth lady has planted something very important on Moon Island, although they are a little curious, they dare not take a step beyond the thunder pool, but help drive away the stubborn monkeys who occasionally descend the mountain.
