The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1030: Going Far Away (8)
"Your Highness, what do you want to do?" Qing Chen hastily pulled him back. Isn't it just a misunderstanding that he went to find her now?
Xiao Jue asked calmly, "What did she tell you?"

"No, I didn't say anything, just chatting about family matters." Before Qing Chen finished speaking, Xiao Jue turned around and left. She hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Highness, Yun Xi and I really didn't quarrel just now, so don't worry about it." .”

"Of course you won't quarrel with her, Chen'er, this is not the palace, I won't let you look at other people's faces, and I won't make you compromise. The reason why I took her out of Wanxiang Tower was just to see For the sake of our friends for so many years, I don't want her to fall into the hands of those bastards and be humiliated. There is no other meaning, please don't get me wrong." Xiao Jue wanted to explain this to Qingchen a long time ago, but only today Not happy to say it.

"Keep your voice down, why are you talking so much? Since you have been friends for so many years, don't you know what kind of character she is, why are you so suspicious?" Qingchen pulled him back forcefully, and pressed her Sitting on the chair, after thinking about it, he changed the subject and asked, "Did you help me water the vegetable garden today?"

Xiao Jue was startled, but still unwillingly asked: "Since it's all right, why are you crying?"

"My eyes now cry when I see the wind, and it's not like you don't know. If you go to her for this, then you really have wronged her." Qingchen poured a cup of tea for him and asked, "Why not?" Answer me, do you want to be lazy? You are lazy now, and you will have no vegetables to eat in two days. Don’t think that you can forget about it after planting it. You still have to weed and catch insects. After a few days, the vegetable seedlings will grow bigger. The bamboos on those fences are also rotten, and they should be rebuilt with new bamboos to make them stronger. The life of a farmer’s family is not as leisurely as it seems, and you will have to work hard in the future.”

Seeing her annoyed look, Xiao Jue had no choice but to give up, couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, I'll water you now, and open six vegetable plots, enough for the whole village to eat. Do you want to sell vegetables?"

"What's wrong with not being able to sell food and earn money to subsidize the family?" Qingchen thought for a while and then ordered, "It's getting hotter and hotter. In a few days, you and Mr. Shi will go to the market to buy some light cotton cloth. So I can make some summer clothes for you. The clothes you brought out are too few, so it’s time to add some clothes.”

"There is a tailor shop in the market, just go there and make a custom order. I don't want you to worry about these things anymore." Xiao Jue took her hand and walked out, comforting her softly: "Mr. No, it’s just a lack of a herb called evening primrose. It is said that this kind of grass grows on the cliffs by the sea. Look for it, as long as you have the heart, you can always find it.”

"Everything is fate, and it's God's will whether you can find it or not. You don't have to force it." Seeing him walking towards the river with a bucket, Qingchen took a ladle and waited by the vegetable field.

After a while, Xiao Jue came back with a bucket of water, and she carefully watered the newly sprouted bean seedlings along the ridge of the field. As Aunt Wang said, this side is close to a river bend, and the land is moist and fertile. Watering, she just wanted to find something for Xiao Jue to do.

Qingchen saw Xiao Jue squatting on the ground, watching her work intently, smiling but not speaking but enjoying it, she asked him: "Have you ever thought about going out to find something to do?"

"I don't want to go out to find something to do, I want to stay with you at home and take care of you." Xiao Jue refused, and then blamed: "Don't always call me Your Highness, there is no His Highness here, only Wan Yi and Xiao Jue .”

Whatever he said, Qingchen didn't want to argue with him on this matter, so he persuaded him: "Actually, there is a problem that I have thought about for a long time. Although there are only dozens of families in this village, there are not many children. , although they have nothing to do with the world here, they are illiterate and can't even write their own names. After all, it is a great pity. Why don't your highness open a school to teach them to read? At least when they go out in the future, they won't be easily dismissed. Lied to."

Seeing that Xiao Jue listened very seriously, she went on to say: "People who eat whole grains will inevitably get sick. This place is far away from the town. If you are a little sick, it is difficult to find a doctor. I mean, there are herbs in this mountain. How about letting Mr. Shi teach them to identify the species, and then buy the herbs they picked after farming, and when someone feels sick, you don’t have to go out to get medicine for more than ten miles, what do you think of my idea?"

Xiao Jue's eyes were bright, she raised her head and smiled and said, "Chen'er, why don't you think about me because of so many people? When will I get some special attention from you?"

"Your Highness, stop making trouble, what I said is true, can you think about it, there is no reason why a big man always stays at home, so people will gossip about it." Qingchen finished watering the vegetable seedlings, turned around and was about to After leaving, Xiao Jue stood on the ground and muttered in a low voice, "What I said is also true, but you don't take it seriously."

Qingchen didn't dare to look back, just pretended he didn't hear, and walked away quickly with his things.

Xiao Jue followed behind with a dejected expression, and she didn't mean to force her in her heart, but she was so eager in her heart, so she said so, but after she said it, she felt a little regretful.Maybe she shouldn't put too much pressure on her, after all, the days ahead are still long, let her get used to it slowly.

During dinner, Xiao Jue discussed Qingchen's idea with Mr. Shi, and Mr. Shi agreed. After all, he came from this village, and he understands many difficulties in the mountain village better than others.

The next day, Xiao Jue went to the village chief. Unexpectedly, everyone agreed with his proposal. Anyway, the school does not charge money, and the medical clinic is also free. The two apprentices he recruited can still follow Mr. Shi Learn something, so everyone is very happy.

The village quickly cleaned up two houses, one was used as a school, and the other was naturally a medical clinic. Xiao Jue added paper and pens to the children, so the class was officially started.

The two men were busy working outside, so she and Yun Xi were the only ones left at home. Except for three meals a day, the two of them were busy with housework.

One day, Qingchen saw the clothes that Yunxi made for Xiao Jue, and wanted to pick them up to help him sew a few stitches, but his eyes couldn't see clearly, and he really couldn't put the stitches on, so he had no choice but to put it down again.

Thinking that when she was in the palace before, she didn't make a few decent clothes for Xiao Jun, and she felt a little regretful.At that time, he always felt that there were so many women making these clothes, shoes and socks for him, and there was also a thread operator serving him, so he really didn't need to join in the fun by himself, but now he realized that was not the case at all.Regardless of whether he lacks it or not, or whether he wears it or not, sewing and making socks are things a wife should do for him, but she doesn't even do this well.
