Of more than 500 acres of fields, Shu Qingai asked He Nan to select 100 acres of paddy fields near the river to plant rice, and the rest were all replanted with sorghum if the water source was inconvenient. And said to the tenants that this year's harvest will only be two layers, and if she wishes, she will collect all the sorghum.

The tenants were all excited when they heard the words conveyed by He Nan.

Now she is the county lord of Hanhe, of course, she has to think more about the people. Not to mention the far, in the Ming'an area, she plans to donate free of charge to build a waterwheel and popularize the waterwheel into the lives of more people.

For this matter, Shu Qingai personally took the drawings and went to Ming'an Mansion with one of the craftsmen who built the waterwheel.

Now the prefect has become his old acquaintance Wu Yuan, and it will be convenient to find him to handle this matter. Shu Qingai was like this, and she arrived in Fucheng for the first time.

What's more, if Wu Yuan learned about such a good thing, he would definitely be excited to convey it to Ming'an Mansion.

The carriage entered Ming'an Mansion, although it was a great drought year, but the prosperity of the city still existed, and it was not comparable to a small Pingyang county.

Because Qingyou lived in Fucheng before, he was more familiar with Fucheng. The two of them sat directly in the carriage, that is, they arrived at the mansion, and after Qingyou stepped forward to report, Wu Yuan soon greeted him with a happy face.

"The county lord of Hanhe didn't notify me when he came, the lower officials have lost their welcome, and they have lost their welcome!"

Shu Qingai looked at Wu Yuan like this, and couldn't help but smile.

"Lord Prefect is like this, is it too much to see me?" ——Send a change first, and then code words. Please support the genuine, all in 17K reading network

"Haha! Ha ha! How could it be, Mrs. Xiaguan has been talking about the county lord for several times recently, because Xiaguan was in a hurry, and she didn't have time to say goodbye to the county lord, because of this matter, but my wife complained about it for a few days. ”

While the two were chatting, Shu Qingai was taken into the backyard of the mansion by Wu Yuan.

At this time, the backyard of the government is much larger than the backyard of the county government in Pingyang County! The scenery is also beautiful, even if there is no rain for more than a year, but the big trees in the yard are still lush.

The exquisite pavilions and pavilions in the park, the quiet and beautiful pool pavilions, the unique rockeries, and the stage make Shu Qingai's eyes overwhelmed.

Rockeries, flower beds, bonsai, vines and bamboos are dotted in every corner of the garden.

Shu Qingai had to sigh, these eunuchs are better than the common people, even if it hasn't rained for a year, but the backyard of this mansion is still full of greenery, and the afterglow of early summer shines through the large dense branches, shining on the surface of those lakes.

"Lord Wu, this backyard is uniquely exquisite!"

Shu Qingai, a modern person, didn't know if he had watched the depression in the mountains for more than half a year, walked into the backyard of Wu Yuan's mansion, and finally couldn't help but marvel!

Wu Yuan carefully wiped the cold sweat on his forehead!

At this time, his official residence was the fourth grade, and Shu Qingai was from the second grade, but the emperor did not give her the county lord's mansion, Shu Qingai really didn't know how to take it.

Just when Wu Yuan didn't know what to do, he saw his wife coming to them with a happy face.

"Mrs. Wu, long time no see."

Shu Qingai was also happy, seeing that Mrs. Wu was still wearing a high-end handmade cheongsam, she was dignified and beautiful, and she had no trace of time on her face. To say that she really likes to chat with Mrs. Wu, it may be because her soul is also a thirty-year-old woman, so there are so many endless topics to talk about with her.

"The Shang clan has seen the county lord."

Who knows, three steps away, Mrs. Wu stopped, and with the two maids beside her, Xiaoying and Xiaoke curts, which made Shu Qingai really uncomfortable.

"Mrs. Wu is exempt."

Shu Qing fell in love and personally helped Mrs. Wu up, smiling helplessly.

"Between you and me, don't be like this in the future."

Mrs. Wu took Shu Qingai's hand with a smile on her face.

"Okay, there will be no outsiders in the future, so I'll be casual. If it is you, why did you come suddenly, if I send someone to deliver a letter earlier, I will go to the city gate to pick you up. ”

The tranquility on one side of the original cold face has also changed a little! She looked at her wife and looked up and down, she really didn't know when she would be named the county lord! Just met Wu Yuan, Wu Yuan called his wife like that, and she thought that there was something wrong with her ears!

The craftsmen who came with him were nervous enough to see the prefect, but when they learned Shu Qingai's identity at this moment, they couldn't be calm!

It wasn't until Mrs. Wu saluted like that just now that Qingyou said that even she was shocked!

"I came here today mainly to discuss something with Lord Wu."

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she repeatedly instructed the two maids behind her: "You go down quickly and clean up the chic yard for the county lord, and let the kitchen cook some dishes today, the county lord is a nobleman, don't be lazy!" ”

"Yes! Madam! ”

After the two maids received the order, Xiao Ke left. Mrs. Wu saw that Shu Qingai came to discuss matters with her father-in-law, and she didn't want to disturb her, so she left with the maid first.

Shu Qingai followed Wu Yuan to the front hall, Wu Yuan respectfully let the main seat, and after the maid served tea, Shu Qingai directly took out the drawings of the waterwheel he brought.

"What is this county lord, the lower officials have never seen it."

Looking at the picture on the rice paper, Wu Yuan asked humbly with curiosity on his face.

"The waterwheel can send the water from the river to the fields, which is convenient for all the people, and the people do not need to carry the water one by one."

Wu Yuan held the drawings tightly and his hands tightened, looking shocked! He really didn't know that there was such a convenient thing in this world!

If it is really as Shu Qingai said, then this thing can strengthen the problem of water shortage for those people! Such a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, he Wu Yuan is regarded as an ancestor who has accumulated virtue, let him encounter it again and again!

Shu Qingai is really a noble person in his life! If this matter is done, he will be able to brush a wave of existence in the emperor's heart! Thinking about his career, Wu Yuan didn't dare to think about it anymore!

Shu Qingai looked at Wu Yuan's expression and knew what he thought. But now, it is not realistic for Wu Yuan to want to be promoted. After all, he jumped directly from the prefect to the prefect, and he was already the emperor Longen, and now that he has just taken office, it is time to make some achievements.

If it was a matter of the waterwheel, he would hurry up and spread it, and many people in Ming'an's generation would be able to catch up with the sowing of seeds.

"County Lord, your great favor is in mind! If there is no county lord, the lower officials will not be today! In the future, if the county lord needs to be lowered, it is incumbent on him to go down! ”

To be honest, Wu Yuan's words, he is really serious!

Shu Qingai really just wanted to help the people this time, and didn't have other ideas. Letting Wu Yuan do it like this also meant to fulfill him, but she really didn't want Wu Yuan to repay him because of this.

"Lord Wu is serious! The emperor is as kind to us as a mountain, and we just do something for the people. Today, I brought craftsmen who are familiar with the manufacture of this waterwheel, and Lord Wu still hastened to inform the people of the various county offices, so that they can come to Fucheng to study, and make this waterwheel as soon as possible, so that the water from the river can flow to the fields of the people before the last time of planting rice at the end of April. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you for the reminder! The next official will do it. ”

Wu Yuan was about to get up in a hurry, and just after taking two steps, Shu Qingai stopped him again!

"Master Wu, wait a minute, I still have something to do."

Hearing Shu dear calling himself, Wu Yuan hurriedly turned back again.

"What else is there to do with the county lord, just as he commands."

"Lord Wu will call the people of the county government to the capital city, it must take a lot of time, before this, Lord Wu might as well post a notice outside the government office, first gather a group of craftsmen around the city of the palace, prepare the wood, I asked the craftsmen I brought to take them to do it first. This also saves a lot of time. ”

When Wu Yuan heard it, this was also a way.

"It's still the county lord who is wise, but how much do you think this craftsman is appropriate?"

"The more the merrier! Those who know how to carpenter and blacksmiths also have a part. Anyway, this waterwheel needs to be manufactured in large quantities, even if there is no drought in the future, it can help those people irrigate, even if it builds thousands, it will not be too much. ”

Wu Yuan nodded, and after responding, he hurriedly went out with the craftsman brought by Shu Qingai.

Shu Qingai reacted, only to find that she and Qingyou were left here by this Wu Yuan.

A maid waiting outside the door, Shu Qingai looked at Qingyou helplessly.

"Let's go, let's go find Mrs. Wu."

Walking out of the front hall, the maid waiting at the door led the two of them to Mrs. Wu's courtyard.

It's just that along the way, Qingyou still didn't hold back and asked.

"Madam, you, when were you made the county lord?"

Shu Qingai paused and turned her head to look at Qingyou. She really didn't take this matter to heart, the emperor just praised her in the holy decree, except for a title, and Shi Ming'an's mansion, there was no reward, and she didn't need to take the initiative to mention it.

"The last time I went to Hanhe, I received the order, it's really funny to think about it, I did so much at the beginning, it was nothing more than to think that I was a woman, to make some achievements, and to rely on. Later, I saw that so many people I helped could live a good life, and in retrospect, it didn't seem to matter what I wanted at the beginning, so I didn't mention it to you. ”

Qingyou nodded: "Madam is so kind-hearted, and the emperor is also discerning." ”

Shu Qingai couldn't help but smile, if the emperor knew about his relationship with his son, I don't know if he would regret the holy decree he made, after all, no matter what, he was just a first-order village girl.

If you want to be the emperor's daughter-in-law, this identity is of course far from enough.

"That's it, anyway, now I think that within my limited ability, if I can do something for the people, it will not be in vain."

Shu Qingai's words are sincere, her life is not easy to come by! Although I wore it in my sleep, I can see how many people can catch up with such a crossing! Since Heaven has brought him to this place, he must have had his purpose.

"Madame is really great, there is no such woman in the world, who can be compared with Madame."

How does Shu Qingai think that today's tranquility is very wrong? She glanced at Qingyou in a daze: "You have a lot of nice things to say today, but I really want to remember, you grew up in this Ming'an Mansion City since you were a child, and you finally came back today, I will give you a vacation, you go out to play, just come back at night." ”

When I heard it, although my face was cold, there was still some light burning in my eyes.

"Then thank you, madam, and come back after dinner."

Shu Qingai waved her hand, Qingyou directly curtsied, and strode towards the gate of the backyard of the mansion.

When Shu Qingai came to Mrs. Wu's yard, Wu Qianqian's eldest lady was also there!

When Wu Qianqian saw Shu Qingai, although she was unhappy, she still stepped forward to give her a salute! After all, when Shu Qingai was canonized that day, she also saw it with her own eyes.
