Chapter 285: Caring for People's Livelihood



Shen Ningsi had not expected that the Prince's tutor would come here.

From this we can see that the emperor attaches great importance to winter wheat and that he cares very much about people's livelihood. He is a rare good emperor.

"It just so happens that I have a few questions in my mind, and I hope Madam Gu can answer them!"

The emperor said this seriously and then walked in front of her.

Then he asked some questions about winter wheat, and Shen Ningsi answered them one by one.

There was no expression of dissatisfaction on his face.

"Mrs. Gu, I have a few more questions for you. May I ask you further?"

The emperor looked at Shen Ningsi with a smile on his face. Some things could not be said in front of Gu Hong, so as to avoid him giving hints to his wife. Wouldn't that be boring?

"sure."

Shen Ningsi thought about it for a moment and nodded. She felt that this high-ranking official from the capital would definitely not ask excessive questions.

Moreover, the other party's behavior should show that he is a very upright person, otherwise Gu Hong would not be so respectful to him.

After a while, the two of them walked to a ridge of a field not far away.

"I wonder what this gentleman wants to ask?"

Of course Shen Ningsi knew that the other party was definitely not asking about winter wheat, otherwise he would not have called her over alone.

"I'm just very curious. The current emperor didn't grant you any fiefdom. Aren't you resentful in your heart? After all, you've done so much for the country and the people."

After saying this, he looked at Shen Ningsi intently, as if he wanted to see the expression on her face and then guess the truest thoughts in her heart.

"Why should I complain?"

After Shen Ningsi said this, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"If it was before, I would have been a little disappointed. After all, I hadn't thought about reconciling with Gu Hong at that time. I just wanted to take care of the children by myself. If there was a place to wait, it would have given me confidence."

After Shen Ningsi said this, he smiled with relief.

"But that was just my thought at the time. Later, as we got to know each other, I gradually realized that he was someone worthy of entrusting the rest of my life to. And although he seemed very careless and impulsive, he was also a thoughtful person. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he would not make unreasonable demands."

Shen Ningsi didn't know why he said this to the other party, maybe because he looked very kind.

"Furthermore, the Emperor has given me a thousand acres of fertile land! I will naturally find more crops to produce. That way, no one in the world will go hungry anymore! By then, our Great Zhao will be blessed with talented people and beautiful land, and those small countries around us will never dare to invade again! The soldiers will also be able to reunite with their families!"

Ana Shen said this seriously, without any falsehood on her face.

"What you are talking about is about to be another prosperous era!"

At this time, the emperor had already thought of everything Shen Ningsi said.

"For a woman like me, the idea of ​​a prosperous age is too far away. I just want to do my best to ensure that all people in the world no longer go hungry."

Ana Shen smiled and shook her head. She was not that great yet.

"Hahahaha... I didn't expect there would be such a broad-minded woman in this world!"

The emperor suddenly felt that they had met too late.

But she is now his wife. If she had been taken into the harem in the past, she would have been able to do more for the Great Zhao.

Of course, these are just the emperor's thoughts.

"Okay, okay, you've cleared up my confusion. Let's go back first!"

After the emperor said this, the doubts in his heart were resolved.

I couldn't help but admire Shen Ningsi in my heart. Her broad-mindedness is really rare.

At this moment, the emperor already had some ideas in his mind.

Shen Ningsi took them to look around the fields for a while, until everyone's stomachs growled with hunger, and then they set off to go back.

After a while, the group was already on the road to Wanning Village.

"General Gu, you are finally back."

"County Lady, are you going to the fields to check on the winter wheat again? When will it be ready for harvest? Do you want us to come over and help?"

"That's right. When can we plant winter wheat?"

Along the way, everyone greeted Gu Hong and Shen Ningsi enthusiastically.

In the past six months, Shen Ningsi has gotten along very well with the villagers of Wanning Village.

In addition to the reasons of these soldiers, the villagers did not dare to act rashly anymore. Moreover, they all knew that Shen Ningsi had already planted winter wheat and it could be harvested during this period.

They also watched eagerly, wanting to get some winter wheat seeds and planting methods from Shen Ningsi!

By then, their family will be able to eat rice more often throughout the year.

"It will be ready for harvest in two or three days. It's only a hundred acres, so we don't need any help."

Shen Ningsi also said this to everyone casually, she also likes her current life very much.

Everyone was very familiar with the unfamiliar faces around Gu Hong, but no one dared to ask, because the aura of these two people was too scary, and it was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary people.

Just like that, it didn't take long before they arrived at the gate of the yard.

The emperor and the tutor looked at the situation in the courtyard with a look of regret on their faces. They didn't expect that in this place where the emperor was far away, Gu Hong did not live a luxurious life, but lived like an ordinary citizen.

The only difference is that his small yard is more fresh and unique, and you can tell at first glance that he is a person who loves life very much.

After a short while, they all walked in.

Fang Xiwan. When she saw Gu Hong walking in from outside, her face showed excitement. As soon as she walked up, she saw the emperor standing beside her and almost fell to her knees. Fortunately, Gu Hong held her up!

"Mother, this is Master Fu from the capital!"

Gu Hong said play and winked at her.

Fang Xiwan was naturally a very smart person. When she heard Gu Hong say this, she already knew that the emperor didn't want others to know his identity, so she just wished him well.

Ana Shen watched this scene silently, her face still expressionless.

"I'll go to the kitchen and ask Aunt Liu to make some more."

Shen Ningsi said that he wanted this sentence, so he went to the back kitchen.

Although she had a lot to say to Gu Hong right now, it was not convenient.

And it looked like those people had something to say.

"father……"

At this moment, An An and Kang Kang in the room also heard the sound of talking outside, and then two people rushed out of the room like two calves.

She threw herself into Gu Hong's arms with a smile on her face.

Seeing such a harmonious and happy family, the emperor couldn't help but feel a little envious.

However, he did not forget that if he gained something due to his identity, he would inevitably lose something.

"Don't be rude, come and greet the master first!"

After Gu Hong finished speaking, he asked An An and Kang Kang to kowtow to the emperor.

"Hahaha... these must be the twins from your family, they look really good!"

The emperor was very happy when he saw the cleverness emanating from the two little guys.

Then he generously gave them some gifts.
