Fifty-one: Pastoral Life (Part 1)

Mingjin suffered hardships and became really sensible. The specific manifestation was that he would not make Wen Wan anxious and get angry anymore. Wen Wan listened to whatever she said, and was very obedient. Wen Wan said before that she could not waste food. Since he came back, he no longer picked food and ate whatever she had. He ate full every time.

Wen Wan saw that Mingjin had really learned a lesson this time, and her goal had already been achieved. But in order to prevent Mingjin from having an old condition, the food still did not return to normal level. However, the kitchen returned to Xia Xian. The dishes were still the same, and the rice was still the same, but the level was higher.

Ling Xi walked along the fields with Wen Wan and saw green vegetable fields. Thinking that Wen Wan had been saying that the food on the dinner table was hard-earned. Ling Xi had the idea of ​​growing vegetables by herself. Then, eating the vegetables she grew would feel different.

Ling Xi and Wen Wan said it, and Wen Wan thought about it and thought that this idea was very good. No matter how much you listen or read it, it would be better to do it yourself. It would be difficult to know it yourself, and the feelings would be greater.

Wen Wan was a man who thought of it and came back and asked the man to gather three pieces of soil next to the house. The three pieces of land were to give three children one piece of land, so that they could compare who planted the best vegetables.

Mingjin felt it was very rare, and Mingrui was a little reluctant. Mingrui thought this was a waste of his time. With this time, it would be better to practice hard.

Wen Wan hugged the son of the martial arts maniac and smiled and comforted her: "Growing vegetables can't waste much time. Except for the beginning of the day, she occasionally applies fertilizer and catches insects at other times. Mingrui, think about eating the vegetables she grew by herself, does it feel different?"

Mingrui curled his lips, okay, he was not interested. Hey, he had so many tricks. But since his mother made up his mind, he knew that resistance was useless. If he could resist, he could not help but plant it.

Before planting vegetables, we must weed first, then plow, and finally cut the whole ridge. Wenwan led the three children to pull out the grass together, and asked someone to plough this kind of rough work. Xia Yao refused to let Wenwan do it with her children. Wenwan wanted to take her children to turn the ground together and let her be soaked.

The ground was turned over. Wenwan took three children to smooth the ground, then divided it into small pieces, then sprinkled the vegetable seeds, applied a layer of wood ash that was cut out from the stove, and then took water from the puddle next to the vegetable field and watered it (Wenwan was afraid of being dirty and did not dare to use manure).

After working for most of the day, Wen Wan looked at the three children with mud on her body and smiled and said, "Okay. Go back and take a shower. From now on, it depends on which of you has the best vegetables." It is not easy for ordinary people to grow food, but no matter how difficult it is, it is just that. Let these three children experience it for themselves, how hard it is to get the vegetables on the table.

Since Mingjin came to the ground, he went over to see it every day, and then asked a bunch of questions: "Mom, why haven't it sprouted yet?" "Mom, are you going to fertilize?" Mingjin wished she could grow up immediately and then be able to eat it.

Wen Wan smiled beside her, she was really impatient.

After finishing the vegetable field, Wen Wan changed the schedule. She still studied together in the morning, but in the afternoon, Wen Wan took the three of them to the school training ground.

Ling Xi was eight years old. Mingrui and Mingjin were six years old. They could learn riding. Wen Wan prepared three horses and three little mares for the three children.

Of course, what we are learning now is just elementary things. But even if we only learn the most basic things, the three children are very happy. Xia Yao looked at the three children and listened carefully to the teachings of the people around her and said with a smile: "The princess is too impatient. The two young masters are still young, so they can learn to ride a horse." It also shows that Jin is impatient. The princess is more impatient than Mingjin.

Wen Wan smiled and said, "It's okay, there is a master around you, and you are riding a trained mare. There will be no problem. Mingrui wants to go to the battlefield in the future, and it is necessary to have a good riding skill. First, lay a solid foundation and teach something deeper when Bai Shinian comes back. Mingrui is not afraid of not being able to keep up. As long as he learns all of Bai Shinian's skills, I don't have to worry too much." Cough, Wen Wan thought that if Mingrui goes to the battlefield in the future, he will have to wait for his son to come back. He will have to live a life of waiting. Well, Mingrui joins the army, Mingjin must not join the army again.

Although Mingrui was very happy to learn riding and archery in the afternoon, he learned to practice riding and archery in the morning and did not have time to practice. He told Wen Wan that the morning study time was cancelled and changed to practice time.

Wen Wan didn't agree. Wen Wan's reason is that martial arts are important, but strategy is more important. Wen Wan does not expect Ming Rui and Zhen to be both civil and military, but she must not be a reckless man.

Well, Mingrui knew that his mother said it was just one, and there was no chance of change. So he used his evening time to practice martial arts. What surprised Wenwan was that Mingjin also practiced with Mingrui. Mingjin is very hard-working now, and he is not as perfunctory as before. Now he is not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and is very serious. He is second only to Mingrui, a savage maniac.

In Wu Xing's words, Mingjin saw that his skills were really not enough from this incident. In order to prevent being beaten to the point where he was unable to fight back, his brother killed someone and fainted, so he is now practicing hard. Not to mention anything else, at least he can't be bullied again in the future, so he will not be embarrassed or embarrassed.

When Xia Yao saw Mingjin starting to practice martial arts, she had to sigh that Wen Wan's method was useful. Although she was a little ruthless, it was indeed good for the child.

Wen Wan heard Xia Yao's sigh and smiled: "Don't you say I am a stepmother?"

Wen Wan began to worry that Mingjin would be too scared and would have a high fever at night. So that night, Wen Wan, Xia Yao and Xia Ying took turns to watch. The three of them looked at each other and were worried that their children would get sick and have a high fever, so they could know at the first time. As a result, there was nothing wrong. Then Wen Wan was worried that Mingjin would leave sequelae when she saw someone killing her, but Mingjin had no problems at all. She also said that I was worried about it and looked at him.

The facts proved that Wen Wan was really worried. It has been half a month since Mingjin came back and now. He has not felt any discomfort yet. Wu Xing gave Wen Wan a reasonable explanation. That is, Ming Rui, the one who killed people was not Ming Jin. Ming Jin was ashamed that he fainted during the murder process. He only felt annoyed and regretful, not afraid or fear. This also has something to do with the practice of martial arts in the past. After all, Ming Jin is not an ordinary child who has never seen the world.

Xia Yao smiled and made up her mind to strictly demand two children in the future. Relaxing the requirements is harmful rather than a blessing for the children.

Wen Wan was preventing the leak of news, worried that people in the capital would find out that Mingrui and Mingjin were leaving. So during that period, they controlled the road outside of Shili Village. It can be said that not only people could not get out, but even the birds flying out during the day were all shot down.

Wen Wan's methods also have certain effects. At least it was three days after the message was transmitted. People don't know the specific location of the child. After inquiring about the details, the child has already returned.

The emperor had a good news and knew it the night after the child left. The emperor felt so distressed that Wen Wan allowed her two children to suffer hardships outside. However, seeing Wen Wan closed the news, the emperor remained silent. After the child came back, the emperor wrote a letter and blamed Wen Wan for a little while. Wen Wan also replied, just letting the child suffer hardships, and everything else was better. Mingjin is much more obedient now. She will not give her a headache anymore.

Although the emperor always said that Wen Wan was a stepmother, the emperor knew very well that Wen Wan was for the good of the child. It was really good for the child to suffer more from childhood. The child had returned safely, so the emperor didn't say anything about it. He just wrote a letter to Wen Wan that if there was such a thing in the future, he should say hello to him in advance. Don't worry him this time.

This time, the emperor heard Wenwan ask her three children to grow vegetables again. The emperor shook his head. Does this girl feel that she will not give up if she doesn’t mess with the child enough? But after laughing, she fell into deep thought. Did Wenwan let the child grow vegetables in order to make her children familiar with the farming affairs (at this time Mingjin is no longer picky about food).

It took a long time before the emperor said, "Sun Degong, Wenwan let the child grow vegetables by himself? What do you think?"

Grandpa Sun is embarrassed. He only heard that the mother wants to let the child live a good life, and hopes to have a good meal and clothes, and when he grows up, he will have a bright future. He has never heard of any mother who is trying to trouble his son like a princess. Compared to throwing the child out with a cruel heart, Grandpa Sun believes that Princess Wenwan will let the three children grow vegetables at this time, but it is really a witch: "I really can't think of the princess's idea." Whether it is throwing out the two children to suffer or grow vegetables, it is all to train a few children. If these wealthy families in the capital could be as Wenwan thought, there would be not so many playboys in the capital.

The one who suffered the biggest impact on this incident was Ling Yuan. When Ling Yuan got the news, he said that his younger brother Ling Ling actually went to grow vegetables. When he returned to the East Palace, he went to find his mother: "Mother, why did your aunt ask Ling Ling to grow vegetables? Mother, this matter must be spread, and everyone will laugh at Ling Ling in the future." I don't know what my aunt thought, but she doesn't teach her younger brother to study hard, and always let her younger brother learn some strange things.

Ruyu must have received the news earlier than Ling Yuan's. She smiled and comforted Ling Yuan a few words. Then she let Ling Yuan go down.

Ruyu waited for Ling Yuan to leave, leaned on the rose chair and said for a while: "Mom, it is a trivial matter for Wenwan to let her children grow vegetables, but she is willing to throw her two sons out and ignore them. Wenwan can really be cruel." Wenwan took Ling Ling as a student, and still kept a distance from the East Palace as before. This was not beyond his expectations. However, it is rare for Wenwan to be cruel to her son.

Mama Rong said tactfully: "Crown Princess, Princess Wenwan is not an ordinary person. Although Princess Wenwan has not directly helped the prince, the changes in His Highness Ling Xi over the past two years are obvious. Not only is she tall, she is not as timid as before. She is not afraid of seeing the prince. As for the princess who lets her two children go out to suffer, she is good to the children. But most people can't bear to give up." This is really not something that ordinary people can't bear to do. Often, being a mother, she has to feel distressed for a long time when she sees the child. Mama Rong admires it very much.

ps: Haha, actually, I like farming articles very much, and I especially want to write a farming article myself. (To be continued)
