Chapter 184 Protecting the Child, Xu Miaoyun Flirting, Lu

Chapter 184: Protecting the calf, Xu Miaoyun secretly looks at her, Lu requests to go to Tuqiao Village

This side of Tuqiao Village.

Near noon.

Zhu Di carried the plow, and Xu Huizu and Mao Xiang each came back carrying a bunch of eels strung up with straw ropes.

inside the house.

Ma Xiuying heard the noise and looked along the window.

I couldn't help but smile when I saw the costumes of several people.

After a while.

Zhu Di came in after briefly washing up.

The first time, I ran to see the two little guys.

At noon in spring, a gentle breeze blew in through the window.

The paper pinwheels tied to the four corners of the crib slowly rotated.

The two little guys, neither crying nor fussing, stared at the windmill with their big black eyes.

See Zhu Di approaching.

Zhu Yongming kicked his two little feet and looked at it.

After a month of breastfeeding, Zhu Yongminghe had completely changed when he was born, and there was also a little baby fat on his little arms.

Zhu Qihua opened her little mouth, waving her two little hands, drooling, babbling, not knowing what to express.

Zhu Di stretched out his freshly washed and still wet fingers and gently tapped the two little guys on their foreheads.

The two little guys suddenly grinned.

…

Neither Ma Xiuying nor Xu Miaoyun said anything. They sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking at Zhu Di and teasing the two little guys with silly smiles.

After a while, Zhu Di looked up.

Ma Xiuying asked with a smile: "Are there still many uncultivated fields?"

During this period, the fourth child went out early and came back late every day.

She looked relieved, but also felt distressed.

Zhu Di smiled and said: "All the paddy fields that can be watered have been plowed today. Next, there will be dry land and sloping land for planting cotton and corn."

"There are more than a dozen animals in the village this year, but we are actually not tired at all."

Ma Xiuying smiled and glared.

Having animals can only lighten the burden, but it is impossible not to be tired.

She's not a 'why not eat ground meat' kind of person.

Of course, she also knew that the fourth child didn't want her to worry.

Changing the subject with a smile, "When corn can be cooked and eaten this year, remember to send some back to mother. Miaoyun told mother that corn is especially delicious when cooked."

A few days ago, Shiro moved the dried and stored corn cobs here from the small yard next door.

She was also involved in threshing.

One corn cob can produce about three taels of corn, and three corn cobs can barely satisfy an adult, which is enough to consume a day's staple food!

This yield is amazing!

After threshing, Shiro also used a few corn kernels to give them a taste, pounded them into rice-sized pieces, and added them to millet porridge when making breakfast.

Not to mention, the porridge made with millet is particularly delicious, thicker and has a slight sweetness.

Come to think of it, just boiling corn grits into porridge would definitely not be bad.

According to Miaoyun, when the corn is tender, it is especially delicious when cooked.

This year Shiro and the others are cultivating corn on dry land. If the experiment in dry land is successful.

For Daming, there will be unimaginable benefits.

There are large areas of mountains and dry land in the north.

"Okay, when the time comes, my father-in-law, you and your father, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, everyone, everyone will have a share." Zhu Di promised with a smile and patted his chest.

Last year, the village harvested a total of four hundred and thirty corn cobs.

All the seeds are enough to plant four or five acres.

"As the village chief, you have to set a good example and don't bother giving us things." Ma Xiuying reminded with a smile.

Although the villagers are grateful to Shiro and Daya, they don't care.

But don’t go too far.

Human heart is lost in a little excessive behavior.

After all, the current Tuqiao Village is a rural village community model.

The crops grown in the fields belong to everyone in the village.

Zhu Di explained with a smile: "Mom, I know what you mean, but you are worrying too much. After the crops are planted, they belong to all the villagers in the village community."

"We also divided a small piece of corn, and then in this small piece of field, we made a more balanced balance based on the family and family size, and gave each family a piece of corn. This small piece of corn is for each family to freely use. Come and cook something for yourself and give it to your relatives..."

Not just corn.

Maizi also has such an arrangement.

When the green wheat season comes, the village has the habit of roasting green wheat ears.

Children like to eat it, and so do adults.

During the green wheat time last year, the children brought roasted green wheat ears to class, and they were eaten by him and Miaoyun.

Except when eating, it makes my hands and mouth black.

But it tastes really delicious.

"In building rural village societies, we do not have a one-size-fits-all approach. After fully considering the original customs and habits, we flexibly adjust some details of the rural village societies, and implement the construction of rural village societies on the basis of retaining the original customs and customs as much as possible..."

…

Ma Xiuying listened and gradually became more serious.

She said that if the court wanted to build rural villages and communities, it must listen more to what Lao Si had to say.

See, not only can't the squire be introduced, but there are many details to consider.

These details determine success or failure!

Take the preservation of the original living habits of farmers.

This is very important!

If a policy, when first implemented, does not allow the people to see the benefits, it will first bring discomfort and inconvenience to the people.

At least there are complaints and disagreements about things.

More importantly, it will end in failure!

‘I wonder if that face-conscious man will come tomorrow? ’

Ma Xiuying cursed, eagerly hoping that Zhu Yuanzhang could come to Tuqiao Village and sit down and have a talk with Zhu Di.

Listen to Zhu Di's words more.

These words are very important!

"Mom, I'm going to cook."

Hearing the voice, Ma Xiuying came back to her senses, suppressed her complaints, and said: "You take a rest, Mingxia and Miaoyin are doing it."

While speaking, Ma Xiuying looked at Xu Miaoyun for help.

Zhu Di noticed it keenly and said with a smile: "Mom, just say whatever you want to say, it's hard for Miaoyun to do anything."

Xu Miaoyun's face turned red, flushed, and she smiled and glared.

Ma Xiuying also smiled and glared, really forgetting her mother after having a wife!

"Then let mother say it."

Anyway, after a month of getting along, she has warmed up Miaoyun. The fourth child loves Miaoyun, and Miaoyun agreed, so he has to agree, right?

Ma Xiuying looked at the two little guys in the crib, "It's about the family tree and the name."

The smile on Zhu Di's face disappeared instantly.

'You are born in the year of the dog! You followed your father and changed your face at any time! ’

When Ma Xiuying saw this, she was angry and amused. She secretly laughed and cursed. She knew Chongba and the character of this kind of man.

This kind of man is particularly stubborn.

It is extremely difficult to change their minds.

She hurriedly said, "Listen to what your mother has to say first."

"Silang." Xu Miaoyun also comforted him.

She didn't want to, but her mother said it, and as a daughter-in-law, she had to cooperate.

This is the wisdom of her mother.

First choose to start with her.

Zhu Di suppressed his strong resistance and listened patiently.

"Your father named Yongming Gao Chi and Qihua Yuying."

"So rustic!" Zhu Di muttered softly.

They are all names in history.

Gao Chi is okay.

But his little cotton-padded jacket, the name Yuying, is really a bit rustic, not as good as Qihua.

Ma Xiuying smiled and glared. The name Yuying was indeed hastily named.

It was Chongba who came up with this idea while she was packing up her things in Tuqiao Village after leaving the palace.

The fourth son loved Qihua so much that he would definitely not be happy to hear this name.

"This is what mother thought. Gao Chi is the first name, Yongming is Gao Chi's courtesy name, and Qihua is Yuying's nickname. When the time comes, both the courtesy name and the nickname will be written in the family tree."

This is the plan she thought of that the fourth son and Chongba could accept.

To put it bluntly, as a mother, she was just trying to smooth things over between this stubborn father and son.

Zhu Di could feel Ma Xiuying's expectations and nodded without objection.

Ma Xiuying was encouraged to see that Zhu Di did not object.

Then, she continued with a serious tone: "Fourth son, you have to consider Gao Chi. You don't want to be crowned a king or a vassal king, but what about Gao Chi? Is he like you now..."

It is very dangerous for the fourth son to restore his title of king.

But she wanted to find a county king or princess for her little grandson.

"Mother!" Zhu Di suddenly raised his head and interrupted Ma Xiuying's words: "Before Yongming and Qihua come of age, as their father, I have the right to make decisions on their behalf and will not accept any titles given to them by their father."

...

He will give the two children a chance to choose.

Want to be a prince or princess.

Yes.

But at that time, they will understand the situation, and he will tell them that if they become a prince or princess, they must bear the corresponding responsibilities!

Especially girls.

Royal women have been victims of marriage since ancient times.

For royal men, marriage is good if it is like him and Miaoyun.

Even if they don't like it, the worst thing is to take a concubine.

But royal women do not have this freedom.

In history, Zhu Yuying was betrothed by her father to Yuan Rong, the son of Yuan Hong, a founding hero.

He doesn't know whether Zhu Yuying is happy or not.

Anyway, the old man doesn't care, he is considering the overall interests of the Ming Dynasty.

His little cotton-padded jacket Qi Huan, what kind of husband she wants to choose, he and Miaoyun will check, and will also fully consider the happiness of little Qi Huan.

Without relying on the father, can't he, Zhu Silang, earn a family business for his children?

"Mother." Zhu Di looked at Ma Xiuying seriously, and said earnestly: "I am a father now, and I know the mood of the father who wants us to be included in the family tree."

"So mother proposed, and I agreed."

"But it's just to be included in the family tree. Before they come of age, before they have chosen whether to accept the canonization, Yongming and Qi Huan will not bear any responsibilities and obligations of the Ming royal family."

The old man tormented him and forced him to do this and that.

He pinched his nose and accepted it.

But the old man can't ask Yongming and Qi Huan to bear these responsibilities and obligations.

"In terms of protecting your calf, you are the same as your father!" Ma Xiuying laughed and scolded unhappily, "Okay, mother agreed."

This pair of funny father and son!

Xu Miaoyun secretly gave Zhu Di an admiring look.

Zhu Di smiled and glared at her unhappily.

She was the most disloyal and cowardly! She surrendered first, and then put all the pressure on him.

She was flirting with him now, trying to please him?

No way!

Tomorrow is the last day of her confinement, and she will soon have to fulfill her obligations as a debtor!

…

The next day.

At five o'clock in the morning.

The ministers were still waiting outside the Fengtian Hall for the court to open.

The little eunuch hurried over and announced loudly: "Your Majesty has an order to cancel the court today!"

Hearing this, all the officials were shocked.

"In more than nine years since the founding of the country, the number of times the court has been canceled can be counted on one hand."

"Your Majesty, is your majesty in trouble?"

"Everyone, today is the full moon day of Zhu Silang's two children, right?"

"Did your majesty go to Tuqiao Village? No way? No way!"

…

While the officials were discussing in surprise, Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang looked at each other and glanced at Xu Da who had turned and left.

Hu Weiyong rolled his eyes and quickly caught up with the eunuch who announced the decree, "Eunuch, where did the emperor go?"

"Prime Minister Hu, how can a small person like me know the emperor's itinerary?"

Hu Weiyong hit a soft nail and stamped his feet with a dark face.

...

At this time.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in the East Palace.

Holding Zhu Xiongying, who was still sleeping in his arms, in front of a carriage, he reminded: "Remember, after you go, if there is anything delicious or fun, you should be thick-skinned and bring it back to Xiongying. Xiongying has never seen it."

The Crown Princess Chang stood to one side, lowered her head, and tried to hold back her laughter.

Zhu Biao held back his smile and nodded, "I know, father."

In order to remind him of this, his father even forgot to attend the morning court.

"Father, are you really not going with us?" Zhu Biao wanted to try again.

Hum!

‘Your jerk brother has no filial piety at all. If he could ask someone to send a message back, even if he could just say: Old man, your grandson is having a full moon party, will you come? We would all go! ’

Zhu Yuanzhang was recounting Zhu Di’s various unfilial acts in his heart, and said with a dark face: “If you all leave, who will take care of Xiongying? We won’t go!”

Zhu Biao’s lips twitched, and he almost couldn’t help laughing.

“Then I will leave…”

“Your Highness!”

Just then, a shout came from outside the palace.

Zhu Biao looked in the direction of the sound and couldn’t help but frowned slightly…

Concubine Lu appeared outside the palace…

“Father.”

Lu came over, greeted Zhu Yuanzhang, and hesitated, hesitating, “Your Highness, can I go to Tuqiao Village with you?”

Zhu Biao frowned even deeper…

Seeking monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, follow-up subscriptions, and full subscriptions.
