"Lord, the people get along very well on the mountain, everyone has set up tents, basically under the shade of trees, or where there are big rocks, and now everyone has turned over all the land that can be planted, and now they are planted with peanuts, loofahs, pumpkins and other plants that are easy to survive. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Because they are going to live here for a while, they grow these plants that are edible, easy to grow, and fast to grow. ”

And there are not only waterfalls, but also streams, but they are only three to five days apart, so why is there such a big difference? Yongzhou is a drought, and it hasn't rained for a long time, but there will still be rain in Xiangjun, so the people here are not worried about the lack of water. Jiang Lien and Yan Qihao reported the situation, Yan Qihao did not stay in Xiangjun all the time, he would also go to Pu'er Village, and there were some people in Yongzhou who stayed there, they were not worried about the water source, and they were not short of food, in times like drought, money is more important than power.

"Really? So long as the people don't suffer. Then that's it, Marquis Lou, let's go back to the capital, I will tell the imperial brother about the situation, and you can also go back to see your pregnant wife! We have been in Yongzhou for a month, and now this is a temporary solution, and we can go back temporarily. Yan Qihao looked at Yongzhou, who was no longer a man, and said. If it doesn't rain, that's the best solution they can think of at the moment, and they can go back to see their families first.

It is precisely because of this that the two of them rushed back non-stop, wearing stars and moons, because they both had their own people they wanted to see, so the original journey of about ten days, stunned for them to arrive in eight days, if it wasn't for the fear that the horses would not be able to stand it, the physical strength of the two of them was also limited, I was afraid that they still wanted to be faster. Because if you don't have to worry about it, you don't care about these when you go out, and once you have a concern, there are people at home who are worried, so go out, even if it's for business, you want to do things as soon as possible.

When the two arrived at the capital, it was already nearly the hour, the city gate had already been closed, Yan Qihao's prince token, of course, could let the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate open it again, the two returned to the house, they did not alarm the others, only called the serving servant to take a hot bath, and ate something, and then left a note that the next day would be late, so that the family should not worry, and finally fell asleep, after all, it was still very tiring to travel like this.

"Miss, I heard that the regent has returned to the mansion, it seems that he went back late last night, so no one knows that he is sleeping peacefully in the mansion at this time, and the same is true for the Marquis Lou. I think it's because of this trip to Yongzhou, which makes them very tired, and the subsequent rush is also non-stop, so when they get home, they will be at ease, and they must sleep well first! Ben Lei said. These news were learned from a little guy who was good friends with the palace, and they all knew each other's identities, and that little guy also knew his prince's thoughts about Miss Zhan, so the friendship between the two was intentional and intentional, and they were able to know some news.

"Really? Then it seems that I have to cook some delicious food in the evening and entertain him well, because I think that since he is constantly rushing, then he will definitely oversleep at noon, so if you come to the villa, it will be night, and it just so happens that I have to come back in the afternoon to accompany Xiao Ning to practice embroidery, and at noon, I can buy some vegetables and bring them back. Zhan Xiaoyan was about to go out after breakfast, and when she heard Ben Lei say this, she said it as a matter of course.

Of course, Zhan Xiaoyan didn't know where such a natural feeling came from at this time, she just felt that since Yan Qihao was back, he would definitely come to her villa and tell herself that he had come back, even if it was a trip to go out for business and then come back, she would definitely come to see her.

As Zhan Xiaoyan expected, Yan Qihao slept until Shen Shi woke up in the afternoon, and when he woke up, he felt that his stomach was empty, and he asked Zhao Xun, only to know that he had slept for so long. However, he didn't eat immediately, but went to the palace to explain the situation to Yan Qijin, and after a conversation between the brothers, he refused the emperor's kindness to keep him for dinner, and when he left the palace, he got on the horse and headed towards [Rinuan Villa]. I haven't seen Zhan Xiaoyan for more than a month, if it weren't for the fact that it was late at night when he came back, the first person to see must have been her, and now that the palace has been there, of course I have to see her, and there will be a delicious meal!

"You're back? Hungry! Everyone is already seated, so you can sit down and eat! Serve the last soup out first, and the dishes are ready! I have also brought out a pot of bayberry wine, and today you will have a good drink with your grandfather, and then have a good chat with him about what you have seen and heard in Yongzhou this time. I think you're back, then Grandpa Li should be back soon, although I don't know where he went, but he definitely didn't go to Yongzhou. Zhan Xiaoyan watched Yan Qihao walk into the kitchen, and said very naturally, not surprised by his arrival at all.

"Xiaoyan, in the past month or so, have you ever remembered me? Although I have always corresponded with you, I have always remembered you, watching the people suffer, thinking about every day I spent in the villa. Seeing that the people are suffering because of the drought, but because the family has been together, the parents are always taking care of their children, whether there are steamed buns to eat, or leftovers to eat, they are given to them first, obviously they don't want their next generation to starve to death, although the drought is ruthless, but between people, there is warmth everywhere! ”

After Yan Qihao took the soup bowl handed over by Zhan Xiaoyan, he didn't go out immediately, but said these words with a little emotion, and then went out with the soup. At this time, it was naturally impossible for him to say anything to Zhan Xiaoyan, although he knew that she would understand, but he didn't want to scare her, so it was better to talk to her about things between family members.

Zhan Xiaoyan stayed in the kitchen for a while, thinking about what Yan Qihao had just said, and guessing why he was. Because although he was born in the royal family and has his brother to protect him, after all, he lost his parents since he was a child, so the memory of getting along with his parents must be blank for him. So this time, although it was to Yongzhou for disaster relief, but between the people, between father and daughter, between mother and daughter, between father and son, and between mother and daughter, he felt something, and let him see that even in that case, parents are still child-oriented, and he has never tried such a feeling, although there is a brother, but after all, it is not a parent, it is still different, so he will feel so deeply!

After the meal, Guan Lao took Yan Qihao to the [practice room], because he wanted to see if Yan Qihao had delayed his practice during the more than one month he had been away, and whether his health was better or worse when he came back from this trip. And he also wanted to ask what Yan Qihao saw and heard in Yongzhou, and wanted to know that the people went out to starve, and there should be no other things, such as being sick or feeling unwell, after all, drought may be accompanied by plague. However, looking at Yan Qihao's expression, Guan Lao knew that there was no, and now he just confirmed it again, asked all the things in it, and determined what the drought was.

Yan Qihao lay on the bed, thinking about everything he encountered during the disaster relief in Yongzhou. During that month, he also got along with the people, although he did not sleep in the same room, he ate and sat together, and occasionally teased girls of five or six years old, or ten years old, so that he knew more clearly how simple the life of ordinary people was. If there is no drought this time, their life has always been sunrise and sunset, very regular, willing to use their own hands to earn everything, whether it is food or money, they do not need other people's alms, raise their children, and then grow old, and enjoy the past years full of children and grandchildren.

Ordinary people have such a life, although the family does not have much silver, but at least it is self-sufficient, not worried about food and clothing, he has never seen this kind of life so carefully before, although he knows that the people live like this. Living with these people in Yongzhou, I have seen a lot of the way each of their families get along, and I have imagined that if I were born in an ordinary family, I would live like this, right?

A man is born naturally the son of the family, and then grows up year by year under the nurturing of his parents, maybe he can read and write, maybe he will work in the fields, maybe he will learn a craft, and then when he is seventeen or eighteen years old, he will marry a wife and have children, and he will have a small family with her, and then raise several children, and as the children grow up year by year, they will marry them or husbands, and then when they have their own children, they will also grow old, and they can enjoy their own life for a few years.

When Yan Qihao imagined this, the faces of his wives around him were all smiling, and there was also a feeling that if they were both living in ordinary families with both parents, although they were farmers and commoners, it would be easier for the two to walk together. But this is just an assumption, this life is like this for himself and her identity, and he has been working hard to make Zhan Xiaoyan's heart leave his figure little by little, and now it seems that it is very successful!

After two months of living in the mountains after the drought, it finally rained in Yongzhou, and it was a downpour, which was the news that Chen Yunxiao had sent back, and Jiang Lien had received the news on the third day after the rain. Of course, with only such a rain, the people still can't go back, Chen Yunxiao means to look again, if less than ten days apart, there is another rain, and it is also such a downpour, then they can prepare to go back, because after such two rains, the drought has passed.

And now the time is about to Dragon Boat Festival, more than a month later, it is winter, if the second rain also falls smoothly, then they will leave from the mountain, back to their original home, and then at this time all go back to the fields one by one to work, although the seeds of summer are not planted, but can still plant some vegetables and fruits that can survive in winter, and can still be eaten. As for the grain, Chen Yunxiao led everyone to divide the remaining grain into thousands of small sacks, and distributed three to five bags to each ordinary family, which was enough for them to eat for half a year.

When such news reached the palace, Yan Qijin also felt relieved, because although he was not a completely benevolent monarch, he also valued the common people very much, and he also knew very well the truth that 'water can carry a boat and also overturn a boat', and he also understood how important the people's heart is!

Despite the drought, he could distribute silver taels to provide relief, but this was only a temporary solution to the urgent need of food shortage, and it did not mean that the disaster was over. Like this time, the people have suffered from drought for more than a year, whether it is summer or winter, there has been no rain, so these two rains are life-saving rain, with water, all plants can grow, rain and sunlight are also the most fundamental things for human survival.

"Sister, my embroidery has been praised by Gu Fuzi! She said that although my embroidery was not the last among the ten women, it was the most progressive, because I had only been in the women's school for more than two months, and I had already made such progress, which shows that I usually do not forget to practice at home. After Zhan Xiaoning finished lunch, he accompanied Zhan Xiaoyan to the store.

Because since regaining her sight, Zhan Xiaoning wants to see more and have more contact with everything around her, as if she wants to make up for the previous eight years or so. Zhan Xiaoyan will let her, anyway, even if it is in the store, there is a lounge, and when the time is right, she will let her go to sleep, and she understands the eagerness of the little sister at this time!

"Really? That means you're working hard! And didn't you say that the female school still taught you how to cook? When you feel that you have almost learned something, you can make us a dish or a snack, no matter how it tastes, you always have to try it for the first time. Because I see that no matter what you have learned, you like to apply what you have learned, and embroidery is good, and you have already embroidered a purse for each of us; Then there is the practice of calligraphy, which has already been written and hung on both sides of the screen in your own room; And playing the piano, you have improved a lot.

Xiao Ning, my sister said okay first, the reason why I sent you to a women's school is not to make you so serious, my sister just hopes that you can make friends of the same age, but don't want to learn everything, and you want to learn everything well, you are tired, then my sister's purpose of letting you go to women's school is to put the cart before the horse! Zhan Xiaoyan also praised her, but looking at her seriousness and dedication in the past two months, he couldn't help but persuade.

She is concerned and concerned about her three younger siblings, but because her little sister has not been able to see since she was a child, she is also a little more pity, and now her little sister has regained her sight, and she also went to the women's school like a girl of the same age, she is happy, but she doesn't want her to be tired because of this, so seeing her so devoted, I am afraid that her eyes will be tired soon after regaining her sight.

"Don't worry, sister, I know how to measure!" Zhan Xiaoning felt her sister's concern, and knew that she was worried about herself, so she said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
