Chapter 74: Pastoral Pleasures

This yellow and green rice field is on the other side of Enze Lake, facing the fields and farms that have been connected here, lying alone on the edge of Enze Lake, which is very conspicuous.

Xiao Yuanhao was already yelling for Xizi to carry her out of the car.

As soon as her feet hit the ground, she screamed and rushed towards Enze Lake, so frightened that Qi Yuanniang also jumped out of the carriage and almost twisted her foot.

Sun Chi simply got out of the car, urged the wheelchair, and went to chase the two of them.

There were already a few small wooden boats tied to the edge of Enze Lake, Xiao Yuan got his hands and feet and climbed up, leaning over and smiling to pick up the water.

Qi Yuanniang's eyes were dark, and she almost fainted: "My God! Fast! Go and catch Ah Hao for me! ”

If this was for Aunt Jun to know, she would lead Ah Hao to play in the water, and Aunt Jun would have to faint in anger.

Shunzi was good, turned over and dismounted, rushed onto the boat with a brisk step, and carried Xiao Yuanhao to the shore.

Qi Yuanniang was about to cry angrily: "Ah Hao, if you are so disobedient again, I will never take you out to play in the future." ”

Xiao Yuan's good sleeves were wet, and her eyes narrowed into a slit with joy: "Uncle, you also play with me, this water is warm!" ”

"Nonsense!" Qi Yuanniang made a straight face, "Don't think I dare to beat you, you can play another one for me!" ”

Sun Chi coaxed on the side: "Let her play!" At noon, the water is indeed not cold! ”

Qi Yuanniang turned around and scolded him: "You shut up for me!" If you indulge in Ah Hao again, don't eat at night! ”

Sun Chi touched his nose and whispered to Haitang: "Why did your daughter suddenly become so fierce?" ”

Haitang is also very strange: "Shizi, it seems that as long as you encounter something about the princess, the female monarch will become very fierce." Isn't it true that the princess doesn't like the princess? "But as long as the princess comes, the princess will be very happy, how strange it is.

Sun Chi beat a spirit, thanks to his lack of children, if there is a man and a woman, Yuan Niang will definitely scold him every day.

With this little episode, the family didn't want to go back to the carriage anymore, so they slowly swayed along the lakeside path.

At this time, both rice and wheat have not yet reached the ripening season, but they are the critical period for filling and heading, and children cannot be trampled on.

The tenants all drew their manpower and patrolled the edge of the fields day and night, and when they saw the Sun family, they all looked at it curiously.

Some people recognized the sign on the carriage of the Sun family, so they came to salute Sun Chi and Qi Yuanniang, and some tenants of the Sun family turned their heads and ran to Zhuangzi to inform Zhuangtou to pick up people.

Before Xiao Yuan and his party walked to the Sun family's Zhuangzi, the head of the village, Lao Hai, came out to pick up people.

Lao Hai is an old man of fifty or sixty years old, who originally followed Sun Chang to the battlefield, and is still Sun Chang's cronies.

In the first battle of the capital, Lao Hai was blind in one eye. He didn't have a wife and children, so he simply followed Sun Chang to live.

Sun Chang sent him over to manage the Sun family's grange.

"Little General!" Lao Hai strode up to meet him, and happily saluted Sun Chi and Qi Yuanniang, "I've seen the female monarch." The little general is coming, why don't you let people say it in advance? ”

Sun Chi hugged his fist and bowed his head, which was considered a return of courtesy: "Uncle Hai doesn't need to be polite, I came this time just to come out to relax." ”

He turned around and beckoned Xiao Yuanhao, and saw Xiao Yuanhao getting in and out of the wheat field on the side, having a good time.

"What's so fun about wheat, this silly boy? Junko, go and catch her, the wheat can't be stepped on at this time! ”

Shunzi took the order, and Lao Hai took Qi Yuanniang's place, pushing Sun Chi to walk slowly to Zhuangzi.

They were followed by a group of people, all of whom were tenants in the Zhuangzi, and when they heard that the little proprietor was coming, they ran out to greet them.

Most of the tenants on this grange are orphans of the Cangzhou army or some old, weak, sick and disabled people who have retired from the battlefield.

The big guys heard that the little general who hadn't been out for more than ten years had actually brought his wife to play, so they all came around to say hello to Sun Chi.

Among these people, most of them were people who lived and died together with Sun Chi on the same battlefield.

Seeing that they were missing arms, legs, and eyes one by one, Sun Chi's eyes were red: "My Sun family is responsible for you." ”

"Little General, what are you talking about!"

Lao Hai had a big rough voice, pushing a wheelchair and walking vigorously: "If it weren't for the Guogong and the little general, how long would our group of wastes live on that little military salary?" Now we not only eat and drink, but some of us have married daughters-in-law and had sons! ”

The crowd burst into laughter and gossip.

"Lao Shi, an old bachelor, is now a four-child Ah Weng!"

"Lao Yang has become a grandfather!"

Sun Chi was also excited: "It's a happy event that all the brothers can settle down here!" Uncle Hai, please go and drink tonight! ”

Lao Hai is also a happy person: "The little general, don't worry!" After noon, let the mother-in-law make dinner, and I took my brothers to carry the wine, the wine is our own brew, the little general should taste it! ”

Everyone talked and laughed and went to the Sun family's Zhuangzi, and Shunzi carried Xiao Yuanhao and caught up.

"Ah Hao, come over and say hello, call Hai Daweng."

"Hai Daweng is good."

Xiao Yuan was so playful that he was sweating profusely, and there were a lot of mud and grass clippings on his clothes, but his almond eyes were like stars in the sky, shining.

Lao Hai was speechless: "This is our queen's daughter?" ”

Sun Chi bowed his head: "Exactly, look at her Tao, how can she have half of her sister." ”

"Eh, the queen was even more naughty than this when she was young." Lao Haile said hehehe, "The one who goes up to the tree to catch birds and goes down to the river to fish is omnipotent." Did the little general forget that you were still playing with the snake behind the queen, and you were hung up and beaten by the old prince. ”

Xiao Yuan couldn't help laughing: "Uncle was still hung up and beaten when he was a child!" ”

Sun Chi was also happy: "You still laugh at your uncle, if you dare to play in the water again, your aunt will hang you up and beat you in a while." ”

Xiao Yuan peeked to look at Qi Yuanniang, only to see that Qi Yuanniang's face was pale, and she really put on a posture of wanting to beat someone.

She shrunk her neck and snuggled up to Qi Yuanniang: "Uncle, I'll go back and change my clothes in a while, and I'll have lunch, and I'll accompany you to pick flowers and play." ”

Qi Yuanniang pretended to be annoyed: "After lunch, you are not allowed to go anywhere, stay in the house honestly and rest!" ”

Dayan people only eat two meals a day, morning and evening.

Xiao Yuan doesn't have such rules, she can't eat three meals a day, not one less, and she has to eat snacks in the middle.

Empress Dowager Xu followed her to eat together, and also changed this rule.

The Sun family only has Qi Yuanniang who is used to Xiao Yuan's goodness, and he must cook a few decent dishes for lunch.

The villagers didn't have any delicate ingredients, they were all vegetables grown in their yards, some people sent a few plates of pickles, and some people sent two hares.

What made Xiao Yuan happiest was that there was also a crucian carp soup on the dinner table.

She ate so happily that Sun Chi, Qi Yuanniang and Lao Hai also moved their index fingers and followed suit.

"This crucian carp soup is so fresh. Hai Daweng, is this crucian carp from the Enze Lake in front of you? ”

Lao Hai drank a bowl of fish soup, and then smashed it: "Well, it's from the Enze Lake in front of us, this is what the boys from Lao Shi's family in our Zhuangzi caught it, and it was still alive when it was sent." They heard that His Highness was coming, and Tete went to arrest him. ”
