Chapter 295 Broken
Just because Yongning is small doesn't mean there are few things to do. Xie Fengyue is simply too busy to do anything.
One is about the experimental field, and the other is about the white glue. The white glue thing is okay, there are too many white trees in Yongning, even the dilapidated yard where Xie Fengyue lives has several trees.
The rare thing is the experimental field.
Why did Xie Fengyue open up new fields alone? The problem is that Yongning used to be wealthy, and there were also gentry and local tyrants here. The land that can be planted has been taken over by several "rich" families in Yongning. Bar.
The sky is high here and the emperor is far away. It would be fine if those "rich" families buy into it, but if they don't, Xie Fengyue will just be a woman with hundreds of soldiers.
Early this morning, as soon as Xie Fengyue finished her breakfast, Zhe Zhi came in in a hurry: "Girl, there is a person outside the gate claiming to be Yongning Lan."
Although Zhe Zhi's temperament is not considered calm, there are still very few situations where a person can make her anxious. Xie Fengyue asked directly: "Did you bring someone here?"
Zhe Zhi nodded his head heavily: "He brought a large number of people and occupied the entrance of the government office. He said he wanted to pay homage to the princess, but when I looked at his appearance, it was obvious that he was here to pay homage. To threaten people.”
Xie Fengyue pinched her eyebrows: "Don't be anxious, just follow me."
She probably knew why the Lan family came here. Since the Baijiao issue was progressing quite a bit, she temporarily shelved the Baishulin area and let Wu and Qian explore a piece of wasteland for mining.
They have been working for more than a month, and the first batch of eggs has been laid in the ground and seedlings have sprouted. Although they don't know the harvest, the signs are indeed good.
In the past, the cultivated land in Yongning was almost covered by several wealthy families, but suddenly a large piece of land that could grow food suddenly appeared. Xie Fengyue expected that people from the Lan family would come forward to deal with such matters related to family interests.
The head of the Lan family had dark skin and was not tall. From a distance, Xie Fengyue looked like a black man wearing silk and satin running towards her. This scene was so joyful that she almost felt happy. After thinking about the troubles of the past few days, I suppressed the urge to laugh out loud.
Lan Cunren's originally angry expression suddenly raised a smile when he saw Xie Fengyue's face and asked, "I guess this is the princess."
Xie Fengyue smiled and said softly: "Master Lan."
Lan Cunren was so frightened by these soft words that his three souls flew into the sky. It was another tall black man next to him who poked him that made him react.
Lan Cunren turned to look at the crowd of servants behind him and said: "There are no rules at all. Who asked you to follow us? This is the backyard of the government office! Get out and wait!"
When they reached only two black-skinned eggs, one on the left and one on the right, Xie Fengyue made an invitation gesture: "Master Lan, please come in."
Lan Cunren stared at Xie Fengyue intently and almost tripped when he entered the door.
After Zhezhi had served the tea, Xie Fengyue asked knowingly: "May I ask why Master Lan came to see me today?"
Lan Cunren paused while drinking tea, his eyes turned from Xie Fengyue to Hei Pidanzi beside him, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
He was lamenting in his heart, why did he bring his son here today? If he had known earlier that the new so-called Princess Yongning was such a peerless beauty, he would have come alone.
"Master Lan?" Xie Fengyue said again.
Lan Cunren sneered, straightened his sleeves on the left, straightened his hair crown on the right, and said as if he was too busy: "Actually... it's not a big deal, it's just..." he hesitated for a long time before saying, he wanted to get back today. What he thought was a wasteland.
Lan Yu met her own father who was not trustworthy when he saw beauty. She rolled her eyes at him and directly took over the conversation: "The wasteland that the princess mined recently originally belonged to my Lan family, but my Lan family has many farms. The land has not been mined, and I hope the princess will withdraw your people.”
Xie Fengyue took a sip of tea and calmly said: "Oh? Wasteland? It belongs to the Lan family? If it is what Lang Jun said, since it is a wasteland, why does it belong to the Lan family?" Xie Fengyue's voice was soft and graceful, even though it was like this It’s wonderful to ask questions again and again.
Lan Cunren's face turned red when he heard this. He pulled off his son's robe and said, "Since the princess wants it, it belongs to the princess. We are taking the liberty today."
Lan Yu considers himself a gentleman and is not disturbed by beauty. He said righteously: "My father has looked through the land hoarding map and it does belong to my Lan family. It's just that it was left unclaimed before. That's why we have it." A name for wasteland.”
Xie Fengyue hit the table with her hand and asked: "Are you sure, Mr. Lang?"
Maybe she was too confident, so Lan Yu subconsciously glanced at her father with suspicion, and a hint of guilt was visible on his face.
But he said everything openly and honestly, so he couldn't pick it up and swallow it back. He nodded matter-of-factly and said: "The land the princess occupied is indeed our clan's land, and I hope the princess will return it."< br>
Xie Fengyue then smiled and narrowed her eyes, nodded towards Zhezhi, and motioned for her to bring the things in.
The thing Zhizhi brought was a land planning booklet stored in the Yongning government office. This booklet was made of three huge pieces of sheepskin stitched together. It took a lot of effort for Zhezhi and the stamens to lay them out and straighten them out.
Xie Fengyue pointed to the wasteland area on the map: "May I ask if there is any evidence that the wasteland that Lang Jun said belongs to the Lan family?" There is clearly a big word "waste" written on the area circled on the map. The black characters on a yellow background are very dazzling. .
What could Lan Yu not understand about this? No wonder he didn't want to speak after seeing the beauty of the princess. It turned out that this land was not his own, and he didn't have enough confidence!
He rolled his eyes in his heart. He was so angry and ashamed that his father was greedy for the wasteland and wanted to take it for himself.
Lan Yulei handed over his hands and apologized: "I made a mistake and disturbed the princess's purity. I am willing to offer ten dendrobium pearls to express my apology."
Xie Fengyue had to go to the wasteland and the white forest in the afternoon. She didn't have time to argue with the Lan family, so she simply accepted the apology: "It's okay, this map is really old, and there is a reason why Lang Jun saw the cross. How can you blame Lang Jun entirely?”
This ladder was simply handed to Lan Yu's heart, and he suddenly felt hot in the face. Firstly, he was ashamed, and secondly, he was ashamed.
Without the initial prejudice that the princess had no chance to occupy the land, he now felt that the princess was really as beautiful as a flower.
Xie Fengyue didn't know that the two black men had the same idea, so she just found an excuse and drove them away.
Unexpectedly, Lan Yu seemed to have taken root under her feet and continued to raise her hands and asked: "May I ask where the princess is from?"
He can ask this because he is sure that this princess is not from the royal family. What is Yongning like? Which royal princess can accept such a fief? This princess is probably from a family that has been rewarded by the royal family. girl.
"Mr. Xie of Chen County." Xie Fengyue replied calmly.
When Lan Yu heard this, her heart broke instantly.
He is now in his late twenties and has not yet gotten married. He just feels that none of the local girls in Yongning are suitable. Finally, a trace of hope rises in his heart, but it disappears with the words "Mr. Chen Jun Xie".
No matter how arrogant he is, he still knows the reputation of the Xie family in Chenjun.
Hey~
Lan Yu just finished sighing.
You Heng walked in from the door against the light, and his first words were: "Madam, Mr. Lu is looking for you."
Lan Yu is really broken
Potatoes were introduced to my country in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, so we won’t do any research in this chapter.
However, potatoes can indeed be planted for one season after the rice harvest in autumn. They are usually sown from mid-to-late October to November and harvested from February to March of the next year.
