Chapter 264 Lord Jiusheng coaxes the baby!
Shen Ruyi was unaware of the changing circumstances in the capital. She accompanied her children as they grew up every day and lived a very happy life!
By the end of June, the crops in Jubao Garden were growing even better. Because of the spiritual spring water, the crops were growing exceptionally strong, which astonished the nearby residents and the magistrates of the two counties!
Compared with the crops in ordinary people's homes, the crops in Jubaoyuan are like heaven and earth!
Now, Shen Ruyi has planted some fruits and vegetables beside his farmland. Those vegetables can be harvested in a few days, which is enough for the people in the farm to eat. Occasionally, he even has to sell some!
There was nothing that could be done about it, as their family now had more and more people. Wei Chuang left behind a thousand Wei family soldiers, and Jiusheng brought another thousand East Palace guards!
There are also Wu Kai's men and the people he bought. There are no less than 3,000 people here now. What do they eat? The vegetables and food consumed every day are not few, so he must have people grow vegetables to eat!
But it's easier to work with more people. If so many people work together to reclaim wasteland, they can work on several acres of land in a day!
The surrounding area was soon planted with vegetables. Shen Ruyi planted all kinds of vegetables. The area around Jubao Garden could be said to be a thriving scene. They even raised their own pigs now!
When June came, the county magistrate Ma Dahai and his cousin Ma Fabai made a plan. First of all, they had to tidy up their county town and then develop the county's economy!
They made a lot of money from Jubaoyuan, so they were willing to spend money to install the city gate of Jubao County.
When Shen Ruyi heard that Jubao County was going to be renovated, he generously took out five hundred taels and asked Wu Kai to deliver it to the county government office and tell Lord Ma to clean up Jubao County. In the future, Jubao County would be the richest county in Qiongzhou Prefecture.
The county magistrate Ma Dahai, his legal advisor Ma Fabai, and his sons immediately got to work. First they repaired the road in the county, paving stone slabs from the city gate all the way to the county government office!
The county government also rebuilt a few rooms and installed a new drum for complaining at the gate. It’s true that with this renovation, Jubao County suddenly became more upscale!
Ordinary people can often earn a few cents, and now they have started to grow vegetables like Jubaoyuan. They try to grow all kinds of vegetables, and there is always a vegetable that can be grown!
Life in Jubao County is gradually getting better. It is no longer a scorched earth. Now Jubao County is full of greenery!
Today, the county magistrate Ma Dahai took his uncle, who was accompanied by his two cousins, out of the county and inspected the surrounding crops. He was grinning from ear to ear.
Ma Dahai felt that his luck had changed. Ever since the lady from Jubaoyuan came, Jubao County had undergone a tremendous transformation.
Ma Dahai smiled and said, "Uncle, let's go to Jubao Garden to visit that lady.
By the way, ask her if she can lend us some more seeds after the autumn harvest this year. We can even buy them!
If the whole county plants these high-yield seeds during the Chinese New Year, we will be rich!"
The two cousins drove a donkey cart all the way to Jubaoyuan. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain of Jubaoyuan, they found that the crops here were growing so well!
The two men got off the carriage and were soon stopped by someone. The county magistrate Ma Dahai smiled and said, "Little brother, I am Ma Dahai, the county magistrate of Jubao County. I am passing by here with my master today and would like to visit the owner of your mansion."
Several people looked at them warily, and a small leader said, "You just wait here. We will let you in only when the master agrees!"
Ma Dahai and Ma Fabai looked at each other and suddenly felt their hair stand on end, wondering what was going on.
But when they thought about it carefully, they found something unusual. Ever since their donkey cart arrived, it seemed like a lot of people appeared around, and each of them was very wary of them!
A quarter of an hour later, Uncle Zhang came out of the farm. He smiled and said, "Hello, County Magistrate! Hello, Master Ma! Please follow me in. My wife is waiting for you in the farm."
The two of them had their hair standing on end and quickly followed him into the manor. After they entered the manor, they also felt that someone was following them from all sides!
Ma Dahai and Ma Fabai are not fools. They immediately realized that the Jubao Garden is now different and seems to be heavily guarded!
The two of them, feeling nervous, walked into the main hall in the front yard of Jubao Garden. Shen Ruyi had put on makeup again today and was sitting there with a smile on her face.
When the two men saw the lady, they instantly felt relieved. They greeted each other politely and sat down.
After chatting about family matters for a while, they talked about the issue of seeds after this year's autumn harvest. Here, Shen Ruyi met with the county magistrate Ma Dahai. In the backyard, Jiusheng knew that Shen Ruyi was going to meet guests, so he took the initiative to offer to help take care of the children.
The two little kids are now more than four months old and can eat complementary food. Little Pingping, in particular, is very greedy. His big eyes are as mischievous as his mother Shen Ruyi's. When he saw that it was a grandpa, he wanted to eat again after just eating complementary food!
The chubby little Pingping was babbling, Jiusheng approached the little guy with loving eyes, and seeing how much he liked the little guy, he couldn't help but hold him in his arms.
It’s true that the four-month-old babies are so chubby and cute. He also helped take care of Prince Qin Beiyu’s children when he was a child. Now he is back to his old job. Jiusheng really dotes on these two little kids!
The little boy looks like Shen Ruyi, he is super cute, with a big head, and he looks like a smart kid!
He nudged Jiusheng's armpit with his big head, which meant he wanted to eat something. Jiusheng smiled happily.
To be honest, Jiusheng seldom hugs his own children and grandchildren, but this is the grandson of his highness.
He happily put the child down, called Xiaohong, and asked her to get some complementary food for the child.
Xiao Hong ran out quickly and soon brought back half a bowl of egg cake. The egg cake was steamed very tender. Xiao Hong did not forget to explain: "Master, this egg cake needs to be crushed with a small spoon, bit by bit, and then fed to the little masters!"
Jiusheng quickly took note of it. He slowly broke up the egg custard with a small spoon and fed it to the two kids.
The pair of little kids were no longer afraid of him, and they were kicking their legs and babbling!
Jiusheng lovingly fed the children egg custard. Every little kid ate it with a particularly good look. His heart was simply so soft!
The two children finished half a bowl of egg custard in a short while. Little Anan ate a few bites and his stomach might be full, but Xiao Pingping refused to eat anymore!
He opened his little mouth and yelled a few times, kicking his legs and waving his fists. He wasn't fed enough! Why didn't his grandfather give him any food?
Jiusheng didn't know that the child was not full, so he thought that the child was throwing a tantrum, so he quickly picked up Xiao Pingping and started to coax him. As a result, the little boy just waited for his grandfather and no longer gave him egg custard. He got so angry that he started crying!
Xiao Pingping's loud howling scared everyone in the yard. The two old women and maids all ran over in a hurry. Xiao Anan heard her brother crying in the cart, and she was instantly scared and burst into tears.
Both children started crying, and the backyard became chaotic in an instant. Xiaohong picked up Xiao Anan and tried to comfort him, but the child just couldn't be comforted when he heard his brother crying. There was no mother here, and the child, who felt insecure, started crying desperately!
Jiusheng was holding a child who was crying loudly. He heard another child crying even louder. He was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. He shouted loudly: "Someone, go find the young lady quickly, go find the young lady quickly!"
Shen Ruyi reached an agreement with the county magistrate Ma Dahai that after the autumn harvest, she would provide some seeds to both counties in exchange for them, asking them to exchange them for grain. If the grain they grew was a good harvest, they would give priority to selling it to herself or the court!
Suddenly, a woman came out from the backyard and said, "Madam! Madam, the children are crying. Please go back and take a look!"
Shen Ruyi was a little panicked when she heard this. She stood up and smiled: "Then my two adults, let's put it this way, I won't see you off!"
After signaling Uncle Zhang to see the guest off, Shen Ruyi walked towards the backyard. County Magistrate Ma Dahai and legal advisor Ma Fabai looked at Shen Ruyi's back. They could also vaguely hear the cry of a child.
County Magistrate Ma Dahai murmured to himself: "Oh, this lady is so old, and she still gave birth to a child? This is really a pearl from an old clam!"
Shen Ruyi went back to the backyard and saw that the two children were really crying like a pair. The son was crying loudly with his neck stretched out, but it was just thunder without rain, not a single tear!
The little girl was really crying, her tears streaming down her face. After Shen Ruyi came back, she sat there and took the little girl in her arms first. The little girl was hugged and comforted by her mother, and gradually she stopped crying!
Shen Ruyi signaled Xiaohong to bring her eldest son over. The little guy was brought over, and Shen Ruyi took her son. He howled twice and then stopped crying.
"Pingping, you are such a pain in the ass. You have been crying for so long, but you don't even have a tear. What's wrong?"
The little guy blinked in grievance and sobbed several times. Shen Ruyi knew that her son had a big appetite and he just didn't eat enough!
Jiusheng said guiltily: "I deserve to die. I'm sorry, Madam. I'm really sorry. The children were hungry and I gave them some egg custard. But after they finished eating, the little lady started crying..."
Shen Ruyi smiled and said, "Uncle Jiusheng, it's okay. Pingping has a big appetite. He probably ate with An'an. An'an was full, but he was not, so he was crying!"
Long rise...
Jiusheng came to his senses and felt guilty: "Oh, the young mistress and the young master didn't eat enough, I didn't know, I just thought he was angry..."
