The two girls ran to Yun Yao's house again, and when they saw her take out the embroidered handkerchief they had specially bought, they hurriedly took it happily.

Qingqing turned the handkerchief over and over again: "I know, the color scheme here should be more sleek like this." ”

Qingqing focused on the stitch color matching, but Xia He focused more on the patterns of the new clothes: "Qingqing, there are many silk threads here, let's quickly think of a pattern for Xiaoyun, we must compare the autumn moon!" ”

"Well, good!"

The three of them muttered for a long time with their heads on their heads, and then the embroidery pattern was decided.

Xia He couldn't wait to pull Qingqing and leave: "Quick, let's go back to embroidering." You are good at workmanship, and I will embroider the hem of the skirt when I hand over the flowers on the placket, and I can barely see it. ”

After saying that, the two of them took the embroidery thread and ran away.

"Hey, hurry up, I still have something good to entertain you!" Yun Yao chased after her and shouted, but the two of them didn't stop.

"Let's eat tomorrow, it's too late today!"

Alas, this Xia He is really anxious, and Qingqing, who is so quiet, actually befriends her. Yun Yao smiled and took the candied fruit back in her hand.

In Xiliang Wangcheng, Xiao Chuhan finally received a secret letter from Kuaima.

The secret letter was sealed with fire paint, and four secret seals were burned in a row, not the highest level of major events were unavailable, so his subordinates immediately ran into the palace after receiving the secret letter and sent it to Xiao Chuhan's bookcase.

Xiao Chuhan looked at the cover, it turned out to be sent by Fang Caigui, and he couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. He opened the seal and dropped out a piece of snow-white printer paper from it, just like the cheats Yun Yao showed him last time.

Little clouds! Here's a letter from her!

Xiao Chuhan didn't read the letter first, picked up the piece of paper and looked at it carefully, and saw that there was a strangely shaped thing painted on it, like a wheel, but it was much more delicate than a wheel, with two big characters of waterwheel written on it.

Waterwheel? What is it? Xiao Chuhan took the letter and read it carefully, and was immediately overjoyed and stood up.

There is such a thing in the world that can easily bring water from a low place ashore. In this way, isn't it too convenient for farmers to irrigate?

He couldn't wait to look down, and saw that there were many words written on the back, and at the end he had drawn a picture, which were two crops that he had never seen before.

"When the minister heard that these two things can yield thousands of catties per mu, he felt that this matter was big and he didn't dare to specialize himself. What to do, please tell the king. ”

Thousands of pounds per mu? Can you really produce a thousand catties per mu?!

Xiao Chuhan couldn't sit still any longer, and immediately wanted to send Jiang Jianguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, to come over, and after thinking about it, he stopped again.

The ministers of the four ministries had many constraints on the newly built Ministry of Agriculture, and Jiang Jianguang could not support it alone, so he already had the intention of retreating. If such a big thing is entrusted to him, can he do it with all his heart?

Fang Caigui said that Xiao Yun'er wanted to talk to him face to face, should he go on this trip in person?

He picked up the drawing of the waterwheel and looked at it carefully, and saw that although the structure of the drawing on it was exquisite, he couldn't see the slightest clue, and thought that the girl still had a hand.

Well, I'll go this time.

Xiao Chuhan refused to admit that after leaving Qiyun Town, he often thought of this ordinary little woman. He is for the people, for the people's livelihood, not for a chance to see the interesting little clouds.

"Someone, Ling Bo, the former general of the palace, is here." Xiao Chuhan gave an order, and his own chamberlain went out to spread the word, and Ling Bo strode into the study soon after.

Wearing armor, Ling Bo only knelt down on one knee and saluted, saying, "The last general will see the prince!" ”

"Get up. You go down and get ready, and accompany me on a long trip tomorrow. ”

Ling Bo got up and asked puzzledly, "Lord Wang, you just came back, why are you going out again?" The old prince is not in good health these days, and I am afraid that he will not be able to help you deal with political affairs. ”

Xiao Chuhan was really annoyed by his verbosity, but he was only out of loyalty, and he was blameless, so he had to slow down his tone and say: "The most important political matter of this king now is to let the people have enough to eat, and the other orders are handled according to the usual practice, so don't disturb my father and the king to rest if it's okay." ”

Ling Bo's biggest task was to protect his safety, and when he heard this, he had to say, "Lord Wang, where are you going this time?" Please ask your subordinates to arrange for their guards to accompany you. ”

"There is no need to arrange personal guards, you and I are fast horses, and they can't keep up. If necessary, let's transfer people to the local area. ”

"But......" Ling Bo was still verbose, and was scolded by Xiao Chuhan angrily: "Don't go yet!" Delaying the king's big event, I will send you to Beimin Mountain to fight the fierce beast! ”

"Yes, my subordinates have orders!" Limbo had no choice but to go down to pass his life and prepare his horses to salute.

Xiao Chuhan went to the harem to bid farewell to his father and mother.

His father, Xiao Guangyao, has not been in good health, and last year he simply passed the throne to his son and hid in the harem to enjoy his happiness.

Poor Xiao Chuhan has carried such a burden on his shoulders since he was born, so he has to work hard, and even use his life's major events as bargaining chips, just so that the people of Xiliang can get enough food in winter.

Xiao Guangyao was enjoying the flowers in the back garden with his princess He at this time, and when he saw his son coming, he didn't pay much attention to it, but just asked people to move a seat for him.

"Father, the son will not sit down. I want to give you a reply, tomorrow I am going to go out of the house, I may come back one day, please help me watch the house. Xiao Chuhan saluted respectfully to his father, the princess, and stood aside.

"Okay, I know, you go. With me at home, these old foxes can't make any tricks. Xiao Guangyao waved his hand indifferently and wanted to send his son away, but was stopped by Concubine He again.

Concubine He beckoned Xiao Chuhan to sit beside her, looked at her son's emaciated face lovingly, and sighed, "Han'er, you have only been back for a few days, why do you want to go out again?" ”

"Mother, my son really has a very important event this time. If this matter is done well, no one will starve to death in my Xiliang in the future. Xiao Chuhan let his mother look back and forth, and only sat upright with a smile.

"You, didn't you say that before you went out?" Concubine He took his hand and asked, "I just want to know, when do you plan to marry Yan Ji?" ”

Hearing Concubine He's question, Xiao Guangyao also became interested: "I think this Yan Ji is good, she is a good boy who knows how to be polite." You've been dating someone for half a year, right? Get married early, don't keep worrying about us. ”

Xiao Chuhan frowned secretly, but he didn't object, only said perfunctorily: "Let's wait for my son to come back after finishing this big thing." ”

Seeing that his son didn't want to talk, Xiao Guangyao didn't force it, only nodded to him, and closed his eyes to rest.

Xiao Chuhan took the opportunity to stand up and said, "My son is retiring." ”

Xiao Guangyao nodded, Xiao Chuhan hurriedly withdrew from the back garden, and took all the nagging words of his mother and concubine as the wind in his ears.

waterwheels, irrigation tools; potatoes and sweet potatoes have a yield of 1,000 catties per mu; Xiao Yun'er, my lucky star! There were only a few things left in his head.

The next day in Lijia Village was the same as the Chinese New Year, Li Qiang and Da Niu took people to hunt in the mountains, others dug ditches in the fields, women dug wild vegetables and mushrooms, and some people got a small boat to go fishing on the water.

The adults are busy, the children are noisy, and there is laughter and laughter outside the village.

Yun Yao picked and chose from the pile of things sent by Fang Caigui, took out two hams, picked out some fresh vegetables, and carried a basket of eggs to the village chief's house next door.

Li Xin was not here at this time, only Aunt Osmanthus was busy in the kitchen with a few women, and when they saw her coming, everyone hurriedly put her in the hall.

Yun Yao smiled and refused to go in, and only handed the things in her hand to Aunt Guihua: "Auntie, everyone will warm the house for me at night, and I won't do anything delicious, please watch and make these things." ”

With that, she carried her things to the kitchen.

"Ouch, there are so many good things, we're in for a good night!" Li Qiang's family was the most outspoken, and immediately took the things and took them to wash.

Aunt Osmanthus still had to maintain the prestige of her village chief's wife in front of others, and she didn't say anything unpleasant, but her attitude was just lukewarm.

"Tonight is a banquet for you, you just wait to eat, what else do you take? You really are, too. ”

Yun Yao knew where her heart knot was, and she didn't care about her. After all, in the future, it is enough to call other people's sons. She just smiled and said, "Yes, I can't finish it alone anyway, everyone will help eat together." ”

Yun Yao put down her things and went out, Aunt Osmanthus glanced at each other with the Shi family, and her heart was a little unhappy. But when they bring something, they can't help but do it, even if they don't want to eat it, others still want to eat it.

Yun Yao was walking back, when she heard the second cow behind her crying: "Mother, the cow is crying, is it going to die?" ”

Hearing him shout, several women were busy running to the back cowshed, and they didn't care about the things in their hands.

This cow was bought for 10 taels of silver, and there was a calf in her belly, and if she died, the loss of the village would be great.

Hearing the second cow shout, Yun Yao suddenly remembered, when she went to see it two days ago, she found that the cow was approaching the delivery period. She has been busy these days, and she didn't care about it, so she only told Li Xin to tell him to watch more.

Listening to the meaning of the second cow, I'm afraid the cow is about to give birth, right?

Yun Yao didn't care about going back, so she hurriedly ran to the back cowshed, and saw that the second cow was squatting on the ground wiping her tears, and the cow was already lying on the ground at this time, stretching her two hind legs.

The cow lies down, and it is about to give birth!

Yun Yao hurriedly pulled the second cow up, and said hurriedly: "Go and call your father, just say that the cow is about to give birth now, and tell him to come back quickly." ”

Erniu heard that this was to be born, not to die, so he wiped away his tears and ran away.

When several women heard that the cow was about to give birth, they panicked. Not to mention helping to deliver babies, they haven't even seen each other!

"What to do? What are we going to do? Li Qiang's family hurriedly asked Yun Yao.

"You go and bring in some clean hay, you, you go get a bucket of hot water. You look, I'll go get something. Yun Yao was also seeing her for the first time, and she was also very flustered, she didn't know who she had assigned, so she hurriedly ran away after speaking.

Several women glanced at each other, and they all did as Yun Yao ordered. The birth of a cow is a big deal, so let's not worry about her for now.

Aunt Osmanthus arranged a few women to do things according to Yun Yao's words, and stood in the cowshed and looked at the cow, and couldn't help but wonder again.

This Xiaoyun not only said that she would deliver babies to people, but also cows, what is her origin?
