The area affected by this locust plague was not very wide, and only a corner of the country was affected. Thanks to the timely rescue from the court, most of the people in the affected area were also rescued.
Li Han was a little confused. After all, she only knew that a great disaster would happen in this place after receiving a prompt from the system. However, that day, she heard that a wandering Taoist priest had already publicized this matter. How could she not be suspicious?
However, after searching everywhere, she could not find any news about the Taoist priest. This made her put aside her suspicions a little and she stopped looking for the Taoist priest.
As the days passed, most of the disaster victims received assistance from the court and expressed their gratitude for the emperor's grace. Li Han was greatly touched to hear this.
That day, she took the Su sisters and Juan'er with her and went to the disaster-stricken area they had seen a few days ago.
And Lu Li also followed behind everyone openly, under the pretext of being a flower protector.
Sitting in the carriage, Su Siyan, Su Siyu and Juan'er were smiling with their hands covering their lips. They were amused by the joke that Li Han said to relieve boredom.
"Mrs. Lu, really," the coldness on Su Siyu's face had disappeared. He looked at Li Han and smiled, but didn't know what to say next. Instead, Su Siyu took over and said, "Sister Li Han, where did you hear this joke? It's quite funny." And Juan'er kept nodding beside her, as if agreeing with what Su Siyu said.
"Is it funny? Well, I have something even funnier here. I'll tell you!"
At this moment, Lu Li was sitting in the carriage behind with his eyes closed, resting.
He didn't know why he followed Lu Li out, but when he saw Li Han leaving the house this morning, he followed without thinking.
Seeing that Li Han only went to look for Su Siyu, Su Siyan and Juan'er, he felt relieved for some reason.
After seeing them get on the carriage, he also had a carriage set up to follow them.
While Lu Li was still thinking about something, they had already arrived at their destination.
After getting off the car, they arrived at the village that Li Han and his friends had visited the day before.
"Auntie Sun, what are you doing?"
When Li Han got off the car, he saw Aunt Sun from the village carrying a hoe on her shoulder, as if she was going somewhere to do some work.
Seeing Li Han, Aunt Sun said happily, "Mrs. Lu, you're here. Well, I'm going up to the mountains to do some farm work now, and then I'll harvest some food to support myself in a few months."
Lu Li was recognized by the villagers when he came to the village a few days ago to distribute relief supplies, and Li Han also claimed to be Mrs. Lu at that time and did not reveal her identity.
Aunt Sun took a quick look and didn't see Lu Li around Li Han, so she asked, "By the way, where's Lord Lu? Why didn't he come with you?"
"Him!" After hearing what Aunt Sun said, Li Han glanced back casually, covered her mouth and smiled, "He seems to have no idea where he is."
Seeing this from behind, Lu Li knew that Li Han had already known his whereabouts, and it was a pity that he was still trying so hard to hide it. So Lu Li walked forward and greeted Aunt Sun. Then he smiled and said, "I was worried about your safety, so I hired a carriage and followed you the whole time. But I didn't expect you to be completely unaware of me."
After saying that, Lu Li sighed again.
Seeing Lu Li's hypocritical look, Li Han gritted her teeth and then chuckled and said, "Thank you very much, husband. It's just that I was chatting and laughing with Juan'er and the others, so it's inevitable that I didn't notice you. I think you can understand."
"Of course. If Madam is happy, then I will be happy too."
Lu Li glanced at Li Han and spoke slowly.
Seeing that the two of them were not getting along, and Li Han seemed even more unhappy, Aunt Sun thought for a moment and interrupted, "If Lord Lu and Madam Lu don't mind, then please come to our house and have a seat."
"No, Auntie," Li Han turned around and continued to say to Auntie Sun, "I'd better go to the fields to see the damage."
Seeing this, Aunt Sun didn't take it seriously. After thinking for a while, she felt that it would be a better idea to go out and relax at this time, so she said, "Okay, then I'll help Madam Lu lead the way."
"Thank you, Auntie Sun."
Upon hearing this, Li Han spoke without hesitation.
Then she said something to everyone in the car, and they all responded that they wanted to go. They got off the car and followed Li Han. Seeing that everyone had gotten off the car, Aunt Sun led everyone on the road.
After walking and stopping along the way, everyone arrived at the fields.
Looking at the people working in the fields, Li Han was thoughtful, while Su Siyu was curious and kept asking her sister questions. Juan'er also followed behind Su Siyan and listened.
Li Han looked at it, then turned to look at Aunt Sun and said, "Auntie, how many times a year do you harvest the crops here?"
Aunt Sun was stunned when she heard this, and then she replied to Li Han: "Madam, we harvest crops twice a year."
"Oh!" Li Han was delighted when he heard that, then he looked at Aunt Sun and said, "Auntie, have you ever thought about harvesting three times a year?"
"Madam, you're joking," Aunt Sun smiled and continued, "Not to mention three harvests this year, even two harvests this year are entirely thanks to God's blessing. What's more, I heard that some places only have one harvest a year."
"Don't be discouraged, Auntie. I have a solution."
After hearing what Aunt Sun said, Li Han hurriedly said that she felt a little sad.
Aunt Sun smiled when she heard this and quickly asked:
"I wonder if Madam has any good ideas."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, especially Lu Li. As a general who had fought in battles, he naturally knew how many times a year grain could be harvested and how important it was to a country. So, along with Aunt Sun, they hurriedly asked, "Madam, do you really know this method?"
Seeing Lu Li's anxious expression, Li Han slowly spoke:
"I just have my own idea. I'd like to trouble you to call everyone in the village over. I'll tell them a method so that you can plant crops well and have less hard work next year."
"Hey," Aunt Sun responded, "Please wait a moment, Madam. I'll be right there."
