The grapes were so sweet and delicious that they didn't want to leave.
Seeing the two children's reluctant expressions, Li Xiaotao chuckled.
"If Tiger Head and Ya Ya like it, Auntie will have a basket delivered to the General's Mansion every day, so you can eat fresh grapes every day, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Tiger Head and Ya Ya immediately burst into laughter, "Okay~ Thank you, Auntie!"
The group finally returned to the general's mansion, where the servants moved Han Qingyuan and his wife's belongings into their courtyard, and they officially settled in.
Han Qingyuan stayed at the mansion for one night and left for the military camp the next day. He was already very satisfied to have this month to spend with his wife and children.
If his older brother hadn't taken over his affairs, he wouldn't have been able to find the time.
Now that his wife and children have moved into the general's mansion, he has no worries and can leave with peace of mind.
Tang Jian left with Han Qingyuan, as he needed to give Han Qingyuan instructions regarding matters that needed to be handled during this period.
When Tang Jian returned, the couple had new things to do.
Since the corn harvest in the village was over, King Cheng was also preparing to have the people plant potatoes and corn, and notices were posted throughout the city.
When the people learned that there was such a high yield of grain, they went almost crazy and rushed to plant it. In order to maintain safety and order, Tang Jian had to deploy troops to guard the places where grain seeds were distributed throughout the city.
The distribution of seeds this time is limited; each household can only receive fifteen potato seeds and one hundred corn seeds.
Cut the sprouted parts of the potatoes into pieces, and one potato can be used to plant several. Upon hearing this news, the people no longer felt they had planted too few potatoes, and they all left satisfied.
So the entire Ganzhou region started farming!
At this time, Lin Zao no longer needed to worry about being discovered, and prepared to plant a large number of corn and potatoes.
She has many more seeds in her space, so she's not worried about not having enough.
It just so happens that the King's Consort had previously gifted two estates, both of which were quite large, enough to grow as much as one could want.
So Lin Zao started working back and forth between the two villages, planting potatoes and corn, and was able to harvest another crop.
Otherwise, if we postpone it any further, the weather will likely get colder, which will affect the harvest.
It took about ten days to finish planting all the land. Fortunately, there were enough tenants on the estate; otherwise, with so much land, it would have taken forever to plant.
"Finally, everything's done!" Lin Zao breathed a sigh of relief.
These past few days have been exhausting for her. Although she hasn't been working in the fields much, she has to instruct the tenant farmers on how to cultivate the land, explain some precautions, demonstrate in person, and travel back and forth between the two villages.
It is naturally very energy-consuming.
"You've worked hard, Madam!"
Tang Jian looked at Lin Zao with some heartache, as he hadn't been able to help much.
During this period, King Cheng assigned him tasks, and he was always leaving early and returning late, so he didn't have a chance to help.
The main reason was that the newly emerging high-yield grain was so impressive that, in order to prevent any malicious individuals from causing trouble and delaying the promotion and planting of the new grain, King Cheng ordered Tang Jian to conduct strict inspections.
During this period, he arrested many people who spread rumors and caused trouble, and also removed many culprits.
Fortunately, the planting season was over and the situation was settled. Those who wanted to cause trouble quieted down, and Tang Jian finally had some free time.
Unfortunately, Lin Zao had already finished her work, and he couldn't help at all.
Tang Jian sighed. Seeing Lin Zao's tired appearance, he reached out and massaged her back to help her relax.
Sure enough, Lin Zao let out a comfortable sigh, and her tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
