Mingxiu and Kangxi didn't have any specific plans for this trip; they were simply looking around. So they weren't in a hurry and enjoyed themselves, sightseeing, horseback riding, and fishing. The estate was vast, with everything imaginable. It took Mingxiu and Kangxi several days to explore every corner of it.

"I must say, this swing is really well made." Mingxiu and Kangxi sat on the double swing, looking at the green grass next to them, and praised Kangxi without reservation.

Emperor Kangxi was also very satisfied: "It is indeed very good. The scenery here is very beautiful. Although it is not as good as the scenery of the Qing Dynasty, it has its own unique charm."

"Yes, yes, and this beef is really good! It's so tender, and even after I made it into beef jerky, it's still very chewy," Mingxiu said, holding a box of beef jerky in her hands.

Kangxi's eyelids twitched: "If you like it, then all the children's efforts have not been in vain." Where did this beef jerky come from? It was sent over by the children. At first, it was only sent over to raise the cattle, so all the cattle sent over were calves.

As a result, Mingxiu saw it and insisted on killing a calf because she was craving beef. Of course it was tender! She made beef jerky from the tender beef and mutton and ate it with hot pot twice. She then made the rest into beef and put it in her space.

The seventh and eighth brothers stood behind, watching the two people cuddling on the swing in front, and said something that was hard to understand.

"Father and Mother are really something. This is our house, and this is the swing we made together. What are they doing?" Old Eight finally couldn't help but complain.

"Alright, we made the swing, but didn't Father ask us to make it? And don't you think Father and Mother have a really good relationship?" The seventh prince looked at Mingxiu and Kangxi's backs with a gentle expression.

This is the kind of love he envisions. Seeing how his father and mother get along, he really looks forward to seeing what his future wife will be like.

"That's true, it really is quite good." Old Eight looked at the two people in front of him with a strange expression, but he also sighed.

Although neither of them were Mingxiu's biological children and they all had their own mothers, they were already used to their father's doting on Mingxiu's mother. Even if they weren't used to it, what could they do?

The women in the harem had long since accepted the situation, and besides, Mingxiu had always been very kind to them, so there was really nothing to be resentful about.

The concubines in the harem had stopped saying anything, and naturally they wouldn't say anything to their own children either, so no one was trying to sow discord between them. In addition, Mingxiu treated them all quite well, so the princes had a good relationship with Mingxiu.

“But it’s too much to make us build swings. There are people serving us right here. Why can’t we let them build swings? Let me see my hands.” Lao Ba said, holding out his hands, which were covered in mud.

The seventh brother couldn't help but laugh, then looked at his own hands and saw they were the same: "Alright, it's just a swing, why make such a fuss? It's not that tiring. If they get dirty, just wash them. Let's go!" With that, the seventh brother pushed the eighth brother away.

Only Mingxiu and Kangxi remained in the courtyard. Mingxiu was contentedly eating the beef jerky in her mouth. Although the Qing Dynasty was developing rapidly, it had not yet reached the point of eating beef, so Mingxiu rarely ate beef on ordinary days.

Now that I've seen it, I naturally want to eat more.
