After leaving the city, Xiao Qingyu couldn't stay in the carriage anymore. This carriage without rubber tires was really not something that ordinary people could enjoy, and everyone would fall apart.
"Mother, mother, I want to ride a horse!" Xiao Qingyu yelled at Lin Wanwan.
"Okay, let's ride!"
Just as Lin Wanwan couldn't sit still, when she left Chang'an City, the sky was blue, the clouds were white, the mountains were green, the water was green, and even breathing became more comfortable.
This is what freedom feels like!
After Xiao Qingyu and Xiao Qingyu put on their hats, Lin Wanwan held Xiao Qingyu in her arms and sat on her Dawan horse under Xiao Yixun's faint gaze.
This horse was given to me by Xiao Chong on the New Year's Eve of the year before last. It was a thousand-mile horse that could only be chosen from a thousand miles away. From its appearance to its strength, it was not comparable to ordinary horses. Lin Wanwan was used to riding it and would take it with her wherever she went, and it was no exception when she came to Chang'an.
After more than a year of horse riding practice, Lin Wanwan's riding skills are now very good. Although she cannot compare with those who have been riding horses since childhood, she can no longer be underestimated. It may be because of the time and space gate. Lin Wanwan has a passion for animals.
A little suppressive effect.
At this time, Lin Wanwan was sitting on a tall horse with Xiao Qingyu in her arms. The gentle breeze blew up the gauze curtains of their hats. They looked at the scenery along the road, watching the busy farmers plowing in the fields, and watching the wild grass and flowers fluttering in the wind.
, the mood gradually became relaxed.
From a distance, I saw a simple, deep and reserved manor standing in front of me, as sacred and inviolable as a dignified lady.
Chinese architecture, both north and south, has a sense of grandeur. The structure, color and grouping all give people a majestic and majestic feeling.
The last time Xiao Chong and I came to identify the place, the manor had been abandoned in the countryside for an unknown number of years by its original owner. Moss had grown on the walls and geckos had painted on it. It was already in dilapidated condition. The two of them were not even interested in taking a closer look.
But today, after being repaired and decorated by many skilled craftsmen in Chang'an City, this manor already looks quite glorious and majestic from the outside.
As everyone got closer, they felt the extraordinary features of this place. The gold beading, the flying beams, and the caisson were hanging upside down, reflecting each other. Lin Wanwan couldn't help but said: "Sure enough, our ancient Chinese buildings are the most beautiful."
At Lin Wanwan's request, the vines that climbed up the wall were not pruned away roughly, but were trimmed and left there, which did not appear to be artistic.
On the other side of the river from this luxurious manor, there is a row of half adobe houses with Guanzhong characteristics.
The farmers, both men and women, had already gone to the fields for spring plowing. Only the curious children were hiding in dark corners and peering at Lin Wanwan and her group.
The bridge connecting the two sides of the Taiwan Strait has been built, and there is no problem in passing a carriage. But it is many times better than the original single-plank bridge, and this is all the result of the money poured into it.
However, Lin Wanwan has no idea of crossing the bridge for the time being. She has to go to inspect her newly renovated manor first.
When the group of them came closer, the craftsmen and village heads who had been waiting there came up to them and led their horses and ropes to show their hospitality.
Lin Wanwan and Xiao Qingyu did not dismount, but sat directly on the horse and entered through the main entrance. After riding a horse around inside, Lin Wanwan expressed that she was very satisfied and immediately decided to move here.
Xiao Yixun's Bamboo Garden was actually quite quiet, but Lin Wanwan was living under someone else's roof after all. Moreover, the people in the Xiao Mansion were neither cold nor indifferent to her, and it was almost impossible to communicate with her, which was really boring.
But this manor that has been registered in my own name is different. I don't have to say whether it is good or not. The key is that you can dress it up as you like.
This manor not only has small bridges and flowing water, rockery fountains, but also a natural hot spring pool. Passing there, you can see the thick white mist rising from the hot spring water.
Lin Wanwan just imagined what it would be like to take a bath inside, and she would feel a little relaxed and fascinated.
After reading Zhuangzi, Lin Wanwan assigned rooms to several maids, while Xiao Qingyu had already found her happy place.
When she came out today, Lin Wanwan was already prepared to move, so many things were actually brought with her on the carriage. She only had to go back and say goodbye to the people in Xiao Mansion, and then she could move here.
Lin Wanwan was only an imperial doctor promoted by the people, and she was only in charge of Empress Changsun, so she didn't have to worry about getting up early to go to the imperial city to do the urination. Moreover, every shift started at noon, so there was no need to live in Chang'an City. She was older
You can leisurely rush back to Chang'an City from outside the city to work.
A little more than an hour of commuting time is nothing to Lin Wanwan.
After looking around inside and out, Lin Wanwan decided to meet the dealer and several dealer representatives in the main hall.
As a result, Zhuangtou actually deceived Lin Wanwan because of her young age, and reported to her the yield of the land without being truthful. After being verbally beaten by Lin Wanwan, she wiped her sweat and reported honestly.
But his initial cunning image had already destroyed Lin Wanwan's trust in him, so he became the first thing Lin Wanwan burned when she took office.
Removing the position of Zhuangtou was considered a good thing, but it was Lin Wanwan's kindness not to directly drive him away.
After meeting with the banker and asking about the basic situation, Lin Wanwan expressed satisfaction when she learned that the entire village had planted the corn fields, sweet potatoes and potatoes she had planted according to Lin Wanwan's request.
As for the other mulberry fields and wheat fields that were planted as required, Lin Wanwan did not give any instructions.
While standing by the river and looking at the farmers who were working hard to carry water back and forth for irrigation, Lin Wanwan suddenly thought of something - it was time for the hydraulic trolley to appear.
But there is no rush right now.
Lin Wanwan put her hands behind her back and took Xiao Qingyu to the other side of the river.
Xiao Qingyu, who has always been the best at dealing with children of the same age, has already brought Rongrong, who has a bag full of snacks on her back, to seduce this group of children from Zhuang and Hakka families who live in matryoshka dolls.
I have to circle around her!
Lin Wanwan supported Xiao Qingyu's behavior of mingling with Zhuangke's children and generously feeding them snacks and pastries.
The little children with sallow faces and skinny muscles looked so pitiful, and Lin Wanwan was happy to see them receive a helping hand.
In addition to farmland, there is also a completed soap workshop here. Now everything is ready, just waiting for Lin Wanwan to teach everyone how to make soap.
The mix of personnel in the soap workshop was very complicated, including people who managed Li Lizhi's business, Lin Wanwan's domestic slaves (mainly those given by Li Shimin at the beginning), and some wives of bankers who had children and daughters.
Lin Wanwan planned to use a division of labor to produce handmade soap, soda stone, Glauber's salt, lime, fat pork, soap molds and other soap raw materials. She had asked Sun Chueyao to prepare it a long time ago. Now everything is ready and only needs to start work.
Time flew by and the sun was about to set in the blink of an eye. Lin Wanwan took Xiao Qingyu and Xiao Yixun on the road in a light car and planned to return.
After Empress Changsun’s routine pregnancy check-up tomorrow, she will move immediately!
