Chapter 454 Vegetable Harvest

"I've said before that I have no interest in that position.

I just want to live a peaceful life like this with my mother for the rest of my life.

The main reason I went to the capital this time was to deal with the Queen's party, because they pose the greatest threat to your Mohist school.

As long as the Queen's party is completely overthrown, I will not compete with Nan Qi for anything. Besides, Nan Qi has been friends with you since childhood. If he succeeds in taking that position, I believe that your Mohist School will also have a chance to come to the fore.

By that time, I will have accomplished my mission and will have retired."

The reason why Nan Rui said this was that he had no idea that the relationship between Mo Jiuye and Nan Qi had completely broken down.

Nan Qi did not take action against the Mo family, probably because he still remembered the brotherhood they had in the past.

If Nan Qi was told that he would pardon the Mo family's crimes after taking that position, Mo Jiuye would never have thought about it.

I just hope that during the few short years that he is in power, he will not target the Mohist school like Emperor Shunwu did.

However, there was a huge secret behind the falling out between him and Nan Qi. If Nan Rui had not shown great sincerity by keeping Concubine De in the northwest today, Mo Jiuye would not have told it.

But considering that Nanrui had indeed taken the risk to go to Beijing for the sake of the Mohist School, he had to remind him.

"Once you arrive in the capital, you can secretly contact one of Nan Qi's staff members. His name is Fei Nanyu. Perhaps he can help you."

As for Fei Nanyu's identity, Mo Jiuye intends to keep it.

When Nanrui leaves the northwest, he will ask Xiaobai to take a letter to Fei Nanyu, explaining the situation of Nanrui's trip to Beijing.

As long as these two people can stand on the same front, each of them will have an extra bargaining chip in their hands.

As for whether Fei Nanyu will choose to tell Nanrui his true identity, that is his personal question.

Since Nanrui has no intention of competing for the throne, if the two of them get to know each other well, they will definitely be a great help to each other.

Nan Rui nodded: "When we arrive in the capital, I will contact him if necessary." After saying that, he looked up at the sky.

"It's getting late. I'm going to go back and pack up. We'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Mo Jiuye also returned to his parents' courtyard and told them about Nanrui's trip to Beijing.

Mo Qing was really moved.

"I didn't expect that Prince Rui is the most affectionate and righteous one."

He is not a fool. Nanrui left Concubine De in the northwest because he was afraid that the Mo family would not trust him.

Now that he has done this, if you still doubt him, I'm afraid there will be no one you can trust in the world.

Although everyone knew Nanrui's purpose of keeping Concubine De, Madam Mo still planned to take good care of Concubine De.

Apart from anything else, the two of them now get along very well, just like a pair of good sisters.

"Starting tomorrow, I will visit Concubine De every day. She must be the one who is most worried about Nanrui coming to Beijing. No matter what the reason is, I will spend more time with her."

"Well, thank you, Mom."

…

Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran are a couple who can talk about anything, so naturally he has to tell his wife about Nanrui's trip to Beijing.

He Zhiran shared the same view as him, and both believed that Nanrui was a trustworthy person in the Mohist School today.

She even thought about letting Nanrui take the throne, so that the Mo family would no longer have to worry about anyone targeting them.

However, this kind of thing cannot be forced. On the one hand, neither she nor Mo Jiuye have the intention to get involved in the court struggle, and they don't want history to be changed because of them.

In this regard, they can only let nature take its course.

As long as no one has any bad intentions towards the Mohists, they can look down on all the glory and wealth.

Just as it was getting dark, Mo Jiuye wrote a letter to Fei Nanyu and asked Xiaobai to deliver it to the capital.

He Zhiran hasn't been sleeping well recently. The two little ones in her belly are becoming more and more active, so much so that she was woken up just as she fell asleep.

In addition, her belly was too big, which made her feel tired whether she was lying flat or on her side, and she had to get up many times every night.

Mo Jiuye has always been a light sleeper, and he would get up and ask her as long as she made the slightest movement.

This kind of days lasted for more than ten days, and it was early July.

Many vegetables in Mojia's fields are ripe.

Although He Zhiran didn't think these vegetables were fresh, bringing them here and watching everyone sowing, watering and fertilizing them was a different experience for her.

It can be said that she is looking forward to the bumper harvest of vegetables and grains she will grow in her first year in the Northwest.

It was indeed a great harvest.

Mrs. He accompanied her daughter to the fields to watch everyone picking vegetables, which really opened her eyes.

Looking at the baskets of vegetables displayed in the fields, she found many of them she had never seen before.

Mrs. He helped He Zhiran carefully approach the vegetables and kept asking about their types.

In order to satisfy his mother's curiosity, He Zhiran not only patiently explained the names of the vegetables to her, but also asked Yu'er to prepare a lunch with these vegetables.

Many of the people helping to pick vegetables in the fields are villagers from Xiling Village.

Someone saw a bell pepper dropped on the ground, half rotten, and felt sorry for it, so he picked it up and asked He Zhiran about it.

"This one from Lao Jiu's is half rotten. Can I have a taste?"

He Zhiran is not a stingy person.

"Auntie, if you want to eat it, pick a fresh one and try it. Throw away this rotten one!"

The auntie waved her hands repeatedly.

"No, no, no, such precious vegetables cannot be wasted. I'm just curious about the taste, so I'll just try this."

As she spoke, the aunt had already peeled off the rotten half of the bell pepper with her hands and then took a bite.

The bell peppers are thick and not as spicy as other peppers.

Especially since the seeds come from He Zhiran's space, the vegetables grown from them are even more delicious.

After taking a bite, the auntie kept praising it.

"This vegetable is really delicious and has a sweet taste."

Seeing that she liked them, He Zhiran took a few out of the bamboo basket beside him and handed them to her.

"If you like it, take some home. Cut the bell peppers into small pieces and stir-fry them with meat or eggs. They are delicious."

The aunt was indeed conquered by the taste of the bell peppers, but she didn't want to make money from others and take their things.

Seeing He Zhiran handing over a few bell peppers, she quickly turned around and went back to work in the fields, saying, "Thank you, Lao Jiu's family. You can just exchange these good vegetables for money."

Seeing the aunt walking away, He Zhiran helplessly put the bell peppers back into the bamboo basket.

At this time, Liang Hao also came back with Tang Mingrui.

Tang Mingrui's watermelon business made a fortune again, and now he is just waiting for the Mo family to contact him when they have other things to sell!

He had seen with his own eyes the strange vegetables grown in the Mo family's fields when he passed by.

Today, after hearing Liang Hao say that many of these vegetables have matured, he handed over other matters to his subordinates and came to Xiling Village in person.
