An Shuyao looked at his body and bones, worried: "Can you do it?"
Lu Jin's face turned dark instantly. He didn't have a good look towards An Shuyao, and said in a calm tone: "I still have some strength."
"All right……"
Seeing him start to dig up the soil with a hoe, An Shuyao went to use a bucket to fetch water from the vat.
After taking the medicine, Lu Jin felt that he recovered faster than ever before. If he had no strength on the first day and still struggled to escape An Shuyao's grasp, then he should be on par with her strength now.
He turned over the soil like An Shuyao did. He was very smart and had a photographic memory since he was a child. He could do these things just by looking at them, but he was not very skilled yet.
An Shuyao quickly brought the water and poured it on the caked soil. With Lu Jin's help, An Shuyao quickly finished the work.
She quietly glanced at his expressionless side face, and she always felt that he was the kind of noble man who didn't like the fireworks of the world.
Unexpectedly, he learned this very quickly. After turning over the last piece of soil, he straightened up and was out of breath, and asked quietly: "What else do you need me to do?"
An Shuyao quickly waved her hand, held the bucket and pulled his sleeves and entered the house: "No, I will plant the seeds tomorrow, and there will be vegetables to eat in a while. Let's go in, it's so cold outside."
At noon, An Shuyao steamed sweet potatoes with rice and made sweet yam cake. Then she was thinking about what kind of business she should do.
You also want to be able to get money immediately and quickly.
Then she thought about the system here. The county magistrate and the wealthy locals worked together to monopolize the land in Taolin County. Even if she had many ideas, she had to keep prices down first.
She even suspected that the high prices in Taolin County were ordered by the Taolin County magistrate.
She ate the whole meal with a frown on her face. Lu Jin quickly noticed something strange about her and was silent for a moment before asking: "But what difficulties did you encounter?"
An Shuyao blinked and hesitated for a moment before briefly explaining the situation of their small place to Lu Jin.
After hearing this, Lu Jin took a sip of water and said in a very calm voice: "It is illegal to monopolize farmers' land. Generally speaking, these lands belong to the dynasty. The dynasty then allocates them to each household for cultivation, and draws from them every year.
How much tax is paid?”
"The sky is high and the emperor is far away in Taolin County, and it is a small county in a remote area. As long as it is not too outrageous, the people above will not care. It will be difficult to change this situation unless the county magistrate is withdrawn."
Withdraw the county magistrate?
The Taolin County magistrate has been here for more than ten years and has long been like a local bully. Where can they move?
In the past, when Lu Jin was still the emperor, it was okay, but now their lives are difficult.
Perhaps because An Shuyao's eyes were too direct, Lu Jinqing glanced at her coldly: "What? Are you regretting coming to Anzhou?"
"How could it be? Wherever my husband is, I will be there. I am determined to follow you for the rest of my life."
An Shuyao said soft words and smiled brightly at Lu Jin. Lu Jin lowered his eyes, forever?
He only took it as her words to please and be nice.
After lunch, An Shuyao originally wanted to go up the mountain to dig some more yams and process them. After waiting for more, An Shuyao would take them to the county town to sell together, and then look for other herbs.
It was just that the sky was not beautiful. As soon as she walked to the bamboo door, light rain began to fall from the sky. The cold wind made her hands feel cold.
So she had no choice but to turn back and go to the kitchen to look at the few firewood. She would have to carry firewood back when the rain stopped.
An Shuyao sat next to Lu Jin and took out the thick cloth he bought that day: "Ms. sir, stand up and I will measure you and make you some clothes."
The quality of the cloth was very good, it was cotton. Lu Jin didn't move, so An Shuyao stretched out her hand to pull him.
He then stood up. He was very tall, tall and handsome, and he had an upright posture. He didn't have a ruler, so An Shuyao had to use her hands to measure him.
When measuring her shoulders, she stood on tiptoes and counted the width of her fingers seriously with a small expression on her face, recording it in her mind.
The little girl was fragrant and soft, and after sleeping with her for so many days, he was already familiar with her smell, which smelled very good.
When he lowered his head, he could see her smooth and white forehead, with a few strands of broken hair on her forehead, her deer eyes flickering, and her rosy face, which was very endearing.
Lu Jin seemed to understand why, before her identity as a fake daughter was exposed, no matter what she did wrong, her family would unconditionally forgive her, deal with the consequences, and even love her to the bone.
Because An Shuyao had a cute and well-behaved innocent face, no one would have thought that such a lovable person would have framed Yu Ruochu crazily.
It's more of a frame-up than an assist. As for her plan, which is not a trick, everyone can see through it at a glance.
As for Yu Ruochu, he fell into the trap and waited for Lu Xian to rescue him. The relationship between the two became better day by day.
An Shuyao is a typical example of someone who wants to help people pay after being sold.
In the past, he had watched this farce with a cold eye, and he couldn't guarantee that he had no time to care about her. Now that he thinks about it, An Shuyao is really cute and stupid.
After measuring her shoulders, she then measured her waist. Her little hand touched it and it made him feel a little itchy. He wanted to push away, but An Shuyao caught him again: "Mr., don't move."
He turned his head and tried not to look at her.
After finally finishing tinkering, An Shuyao started cutting the cloth. These needlework scissors were all bought in that clothing store.
She was only mediocre at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but her embroidery skills were pretty good. Following her memory, she started making clothes for Lu Jin.
She has seen the results of her good impressions over the past few days, and the man has begun to stop resisting her.
Lu Jin looked at the rain falling from the thatch outside. The two of them were sitting together like this, which was quite cozy.
The rain stopped not long after. An Shuyao raised her head and rubbed her eyes. She roughly made an outline of her clothes. She planned to make them for him when she was free.
Now she is going to the mountains to chop wood and dig wild yams.
When she stood up, Lu Jin called out to her: "Where are you going?"
An Shuyao put away the newly formed clothes: "Go to the mountains to chop some firewood and dig some yams to make them. It's getting cold now. I'll go to the county in two days to buy some cotton for you to make thicker clothes."
"
Lu Jin also stood up: "I'll go with you."
An Shuyao looked at him blankly: "But you are still injured."
Lu Jin took the first step to put on the big backpack, and he opened his thin lips lightly: "It's okay, I'll go with you."
Finally, An Shuyao took Lu Jin up the mountain together.
She didn't know what this man was capable of. He had suffered internal injuries and there was still strange poison in his body.
But An Shuyao gave up after a few words of advice. In the end, Lu Jin looked at her with his phoenix eyes without any emotion. His handsome face was expressionless. An Shuyao inexplicably felt that she looked a bit like a cold little puppy.
.
So they couldn't resist the beauty, so they went up the mountain together.
