"It's okay." Qin Wan really didn't think much of it. If her grandfather knew what Lu Yan had done in his previous life, he would probably want to cut him into pieces and make him suffer. He would not say that Xie Qing's method was not glorious enough and was a bit insidious.
However, Qin Zhan still sided with his granddaughter, and didn't say anything when he saw that she was happy.
Lu Yan has always been ambitious, selfish and self-centered. He will do anything as long as it benefits him.
In his previous life, rumors circulated that Bai Wanyi and the Crown Prince were having an affair, and all sorts of rumors were flying everywhere. How could Lu Yan not know about this? He turned a blind eye to it, simply because Bai Wanyi had gained a lot of benefits for him.
Later, Bai Wanyi took refuge with the Fourth Prince, and their relationship became even closer. Even though the Fourth Prince's wife had quarreled with the Fourth Prince countless times about this, Lu Yan still treated Bai Wanyi gently.
Does he really like Bai Wanyi so much?
I’m afraid he is impressed by Bai Wanyi’s abilities?
Haha, a gigolo, no matter how the world changes, it can’t change the fact that he has bad teeth.
Qin Wan sneered, stopped wasting time on irrelevant people, and continued to busy herself with her own things.
Time passed quickly in the busyness and it was August. Food from Shenyang and other places was delivered one after another.
After two or three months of heavy rain, the crops this season grew very well, and God was very kind. The rain stopped half a month before the rice was filling. Although it stopped for two days and rained for two days, at least there was the sun. By the time the rice was filling, the sky was completely clear, and the scene of golden rice swaying in the wind was so beautiful.
Xiaoyu described the beautiful scene to Song Shao, which made Qin Wan sigh: "It's a pity that I didn't get to see it with my own eyes."
Xiaoyu was dressed as a servant. She was a servant sold by the Lu family. For convenience, she dressed in men's clothes along the way. She did not change after entering the capital to avoid trouble.
She smiled and said, "I even brought some rice from Shenyang for you, young lady."
It wasn't the first time Qin Wan received rice ears, so she smiled and said, "Give it to me."
Song Shao said mysteriously, "You have to go out and take a look."
Qin Wan went out with them. When she arrived at the front yard, she saw maids and servants surrounding her in three layers.
There were even sounds of amazement coming from the innermost part.
Someone said, "The young lady is here."
The crowd dispersed, revealing the large bathtub surrounded by people.
Qin Wan's eyes widened, just like Qin Zhan's beside the tub. After a moment, she pointed at the tub and said to Xiaoyu and the others, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Why did you come all the way here to bring soil with you?"
Yes, what they brought was not just rice ears, but rice ears picked directly from the ground, and they brought them over from thousands of miles away along with the soil.
Xiaoyu pointed at Song Shao and said with a smile, "Didn't he want to send it?"
Song Shao said confidently: "My lady is going to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I think this is the best gift."
Qin Wan looked at the heavy ears of rice, a smile in her eyes. "Shenyang has suffered from drought and then heavy rain. After two or three months of continuous rain, the grain harvest is still so good. It is indeed the best gift. It is for the two of us. I will send someone to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come. However, he is busy at the moment, so I don't know if he can come today."
Qin Zhan's eyes lit up as he looked at the heavy ears of rice. He pulled Song Shao aside and asked him all sorts of questions, all about the details of rice growth during the heavy rain in Shenyang.
Song Shao was taking care of the rice seriously and answered every question in detail.
Qin Wan hurriedly asked them to go to the hall to talk. Although it was Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was still hot.
Even though Xie Qing was busy, he came immediately when Qin Wan invited him.
After entering the main hall and greeting Qin Zhan, he gave her something first: "I was just about to come, and you sent someone to look for me. Is this a telepathic connection?"
Qin Wan looked at the colorful shuttlecock in his hand and said with a smirk, "There are others around, and you don't know how to restrain yourself."
Xie Qing was very confident: "The Marquis's mind is not on me. He probably can't hear what I say."
Song Shao looked at Xie Qing in astonishment. Is this his Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Is this the Crown Prince whose mere glance can scare all spies?
Isn’t this like a peacock courting a mate?
Just like that, the peacock-like Crown Prince gave him some courage, allowing him to boldly raise his hand to express his presence: "Um, Your Highness, I am here too."
Xie Qing's cheerful expression immediately faded when he saw Song Shao. He glanced at Song Shao coldly and saw him trembling. A smile flashed in his eyes and he said lightly, "What are you doing here?"
Song Shao was originally trembling, afraid that Xie Qing would get angry, but when he heard this, he started to tremble again: "I'm here to deliver this season's grain to Shenyang. Did you see the bucket of rice outside when you came in? Shenyang Village has a good harvest this year!"
Xie Qing's mind and eyes were filled with Qin Wan, so how could he notice the things in the yard? He thought he had just changed the flowers to appreciate.
However, he didn't show it on his face. He just said "hmm" lightly, looked at Qin Wan again, and said softly, "I shot a pheasant outside. Its feathers are very beautiful, but it's a long way to go, so it's inconvenient to bring it back. So I made two shuttlecocks and two feather dusters with its feathers and had them sent to your yard."
Qin Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You really don't waste anything at all."
Xie Qing said sweet nothings seriously: "I thought you would like it, so I kept them all."
"puff."
Qin Wan had seen Xie Qing's frivolous appearance many times, and when he suddenly became serious, it made people laugh.
Xie Qing coughed lightly, signaling her to give him some face. Then, with his hands behind his back, he looked at Song Shao with a cold face, "How is the grain production this time?"
In an instant, a sense of pressure forced Song Shao to lower his head and tell him about Shen Yang's harvest in a proper manner.
Xie Qing followed them to the yard again and saw the carts of grain. He saw the golden ears of rice in the tub, which had come from thousands of miles away and were still heavy with Shen Yang's soil. Even though he tried hard to maintain his expression, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He held the rice ears with his outstretched hands, trembling slightly, and spoke in a trembling voice, "Is this the one who came from Shenyang Manor?"
Qin Wan nodded and gave him another affirmative answer: "Yes, this is the water-loving rice we cultivated specially. In a year with abundant rainfall, as long as there is half a month of sunny days, it will fill with grain and ear, and grow vigorously."
Xie Qing's eyes were filled with tears. Although his expression was calm, his eyes were filled with excitement. "What if the yield is from normal rainwater?"
Qin Wan pondered for a moment, then ordered the booklets recently handed in by farms across the country to be brought over. "Each booklet records the farm's rainfall over the past year, as well as the progress of fertilizing, weeding, and pest control. Every detail is recorded."
Xie Qing looked at the booklet, then at the food in front of him. He sighed lightly, his eyes fell on Qin Wan, and he weighed it over and over again.
