"Your Highness, you are here!"
Little Bell jumped off the carriage easily and looked at the magnificent gate, feeling quite proud.
Although this is not my first time here, I am still surprised every time I come.
She managed to remain calm. "Please take the carriage to the stable in the backyard. Grandpa, Grandma, let's walk in slowly. It's been a long time since you last came here, so this is a good time to take a stroll."
Lin Changshu felt that he could not take it all in and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, let's go for a walk. It would be bad if we don't know where to live in the future."
Zhao glanced at him angrily, "You're obviously just curious about how those carpenters built the house, but you're finding so many excuses.
I'll be staying here every day, so I'll remember it morning and night. Let's go, I'm curious too. The last time I was here was shortly after construction began.
I really didn't expect it to be built so magnificently. It is comparable to Prince Xiang's Palace.
If we move in, please invite your Aunt Liu and your two younger brothers to come over to our house and play someday."
"Okay, okay. Aunt Liu has always asked me to bring grandpa and grandma to live here. It will be much more convenient to come and go now. Come on, grandma, let me introduce you. Look, this is the gatehouse.
Our gatehouse is very spacious, not any smaller than the room we stayed in in Shuanghe Village. Each room can sleep four people.
And here is a small kitchen. The guards who usually guard the gate can eat here. There is a cook who specializes in cooking.
And inside is..."
Several people walked and looked along the way. It felt like they could never see enough of such a beautiful and unique courtyard. The scenery in each place was different, very charming, and the decoration was just right.
It can make the yard look particularly elegant without being too complicated.
The most important thing is that in order to prevent her grandparents from feeling bored, Xiao Lingling discussed with Grandpa Mu and others for a long time and marked out an area of about four acres at the back of the entire yard.
There are no flowers or plants planted here. They are all plowed farmland, and they are thoroughly watered with water from the spirit pond.
Now, whether it is fruits, vegetables or grains, there will definitely be a good harvest.
Moreover, in order to ensure that they would not be too idle in winter, they specially built a greenhouse and enclosed a piece of land about one acre in size.
Other families use greenhouses to grow flowers, but Xiao Lingling is very generous and uses all of it for farming.
Anyway, part of the money for building the princess's mansion was allocated by the Ministry of Revenue at the request of the emperor, and part was contributed by Xiao Lingling herself, plus the money from her godfathers and godmothers.
I can totally afford to splurge!
So, Mr. Mu had no choice but to do whatever she said.
Standing in front of the last door, Xiao Lingling deliberately kept everyone in suspense, "Grandpa, Grandma, close your eyes, I have a surprise for you!"
The two were curious and looked at each other for a long time, and finally closed their eyes.
Lin Changshu even raised his hands to block his eyes, "Okay, okay, Grandpa won't look at it, Grandpa won't look at it. Is this okay?"
Little Bell chuckled twice, "That's enough!"
Pushing open the door, the large open space in the backyard and the greenhouse on the right are revealed.
There is a well next to the greenhouse for watering purposes.
"Okay, you can open your eyes now."
The two of them slowly opened their eyes and looked at the vast empty land, unable to react for a moment.
"Why is this such a large piece of land?"
It was Zhao who reacted quickly and immediately showed an expression that was neither funny nor sad.
"Grandpa, aren't you worried that you'll be bored here? Now that I have such a large area for you to take care of, won't it be less boring?
And, if you go out from the back door, there is a large hill outside, which I have people planted with various fruit trees.
They're almost all alive now. From now on, we can pick our own fruits every season. You can keep this land to grow some fruits and vegetables.
The greenhouse over there is quite spacious, so we won’t be short of fresh vegetables to eat in the winter.”
Lin Changshu didn't know what to say for a moment. He knew that this was all from his granddaughter's heart, and he was so moved that his eyes turned red.
He hugged the little bell and kissed her.
Zhao patted his shoulder in disgust, "Alright, alright, stop kissing me. With your unshaven beard, didn't you see that Xiao Lingling's face is all red?"
Xiao Lingling's skin is so tender that it turns red with a slight poke, not to mention her messy hair.
However, it didn't hurt much. Little Bell even smiled and rubbed herself upwards. The itchiness felt quite comfortable.
Lin Changshu was obviously in a different mood now that he had the land. Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, he was reluctant to leave. He sent Zhao and the others away and went to the greenhouse to get his tools to do something.
Well, let’s straighten these ridges first.
Sure enough, time passes fastest when one is busy. Lin Changshu felt that he had not done anything, but the entire afternoon passed by so quickly.
Dinner was eaten in the backyard of Lin Changshu and Zhao's yard.
Little Bell's yard was right in front of them.
Knowing that they had arrived in the provincial capital, Lin Feng and his wife took their children and closed the shop early in the evening and went back to stay.
It's rare for a family to be so lively.
There is almost not enough space at a big table.
"Dad, Mom, it's so great that you're willing to come live in the capital! Otherwise, I'd always be worried about you."
