Kangxi had his back to her, but when he heard her footsteps, he instinctively turned around, intending to help her get dressed in a moment. However, he saw her hand reaching for the small cloth bag.
"Jiaojiao, no!"
His pupils were slightly dilated, and his voice was urgent.
Before he finished speaking, he strode forward and took her hand: "Jiaojiao, there's a gift inside. You can only see it at the right time."
Harigana pouted, "Oh! Okay!"
I felt a little regretful; she should have been faster.
Kangxi relaxed his nervousness, picked her up and put her back on the bed: "Jiaojiao, I'll go get you some clothes, don't wander off."
Still feeling uneasy, he kicked her shoes far away to make sure she couldn't put her feet down before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
Harigana watched Kangxi's childish behavior and thought it was fine not to watch. He would tease him with that little cloth bag whenever he had time, which was quite fun.
Kangxi returned quickly, took two sets of clothes from the outer room, put them on himself first, and then began to dress Harigana.
It's true that men need to be trained; Emperor Kangxi was initially quite flustered.
Now, not only is the speed fast, but even the speed at which he braids her hair has improved.
In just one year, Kangxi went from being a complete novice to someone so skilled that Dulan sometimes felt jealous.
"Xuan Ye, from now on you can only braid my hair, you can't do this for anyone else."
When flirting, Harigana was still willing to offer Kangxi some emotional value.
After hearing this, Kangxi frowned slightly and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "What are you thinking about in that little head of yours again?"
Harigana rolled her eyes at him in the bronze mirror: "What are you dreaming about?"
Emperor Kangxi choked on his words. Could it be that he had misunderstood?
"Aisin Gioro Xuanye, are you thinking about another woman?"
Seeing him lower his hand, he immediately turned around and looked at Kangxi, saying fiercely, "I'm talking about Beibei, who are you thinking of? Speak!"
Kangxi touched his nose. He hadn't thought of anyone in particular; he just subconsciously felt it was another woman.
This is terrible!
"Jiaojiao, how can Beibei be anyone else? She's our daughter!"
Kangxi tried to confuse the public, and although he was happy, he dared not go against the tide.
Harigana nodded, seemingly agreeing with his opinion, but what he said almost made Kangxi so angry that he cursed.
“You’re right, Bao Bao and Bei Bei are both our children, how can they be considered other people!”
He paused, and just as Kangxi was about to reach out and hug him, he said softly, "I miss them both quite a bit. When we get back, I'll hold the baby while you sleep, and you can hold Beibei while you sleep. One for each of us, and no one should take the other's."
Xuan Ye, you said it's really good that I had two children, then I wouldn't have to fight over who gets to hold them.
Kangxi's eyes widened immediately, and he retorted, "The baby is a boy, how can you hold him!"
Harigana stood up, looking at him defiantly: "The baby is our son! How could I not hold him!"
Hearing her words through gritted teeth, he was immediately deflated and pulled her into his arms: "Jiaojiao, from now on I will only braid your hair, you can't hug that brat."
Harigana smiled slightly and said he had a way to cure him.
Although Emperor Kangxi was humiliated, he was secretly overjoyed.
His beloved Jiaojiao really likes him, and now she's even jealous of Beibei. Fortunately, he's virtuous and doesn't have any dirt on him that she can get her hands on.
Li Dequan and Du Lan looked at each other, wondering if the Emperor had caught a chill, otherwise what was the meaning of their laughter?
It was already morning when I started laughing as soon as I left my room, and I kept laughing until I finished my meal.
"Xuan Ye, put it away."
Harigana just wanted to give him a taste of success, but it seems like he went a bit too far now.
Kangxi turned to look at her: "Alright! Take it!"
She was very gentle, and although she readily agreed, the corners of her mouth remained turned up in a smile.
Harigana had no choice but to follow him for a while, and only got into the carriage when they were almost out of town.
"Jiaojiao, let's go for a walk in the surrounding villages today, and then I'll take you to soak in the hot springs tonight."
I originally wanted to take her there yesterday, but the old man's incident ruined our mood.
He has composed himself today and it will no longer affect his desire to have fun in Harigana.
"Hmm! Good! It's great that you can understand the people's conditions and take me sightseeing at the same time."
Just playing games isn't fun enough!
Harigana lifted the curtain and looked out: "Xuan Ye, we've finally managed to come out, so it's of utmost importance that we take a good look at the lives of the people and understand their suffering."
Nothing else matters. Just do what you want to do, and I'll always be there for you.
The voice was very soft, but it weighed heavily on Kangxi's heart.
His beloved is always so kind, always thinking about his happiness and unhappiness, never about herself.
"Okay! I'll arrange everything."
Not far from the town is a small village, which looks very tidy, perhaps because it is not far from the town.
Kangxi took Harigana's hand and got off the carriage, then slowly walked towards the village.
“Xuan Ye, I have never seen crops before. The first time I saw them up close was when I visited the estate last year.”
I've never seen such a large area of planting before, in all my past and present lives.
It's so lush and green, it's no wonder that green symbolizes life.
I'll take you to the village during the autumn harvest so you can experience what harvesting crops is like.
It's August now, and the people in the fields are busy carrying water and picking grass.
"Are you gentlemen looking for someone?"
A man who looked like a manager stepped forward, looking at them warily, with several strong young men behind him.
Li Dequan immediately stepped forward: "Uncle, our master came from the south. He came here specifically to see and learn from the good harvest in this area."
The newcomer looked them over carefully, then waved his hand, and the people behind him immediately dispersed.
"From the south? The south produces much more than we do, so what are they learning here?"
Although the man waved away the people behind him, he still didn't want them to go in.
Li Dequan smiled obsequiously, "Sir, the south has its own way of planting, and the north has its own way of planting. Nobody said we can't learn from each other, right?" As he spoke, he quietly approached and slipped a purse into the man's hand.
"You can only look at it, you can't just trample on it."
The man put his purse away, spoke with a stern face, and then moved aside.
The man explained that the village was called Lijia Village, and the man he had just spoken to was the village chief.
The majority of people in the village are surnamed Li, and there are more than 100 households, making it one of the larger villages in the surrounding area.
Why don't they install a waterwheel?
