The first snowfall did not linger on the land of Peach Blossom Spring.
The next day, the sun came out, and the snow melted into water and seeped into the soil.
Vegetable greenhouses have been continuously built, and now the number has increased to forty.
As long as the temperature in the vegetable greenhouse is suitable, Li Lanzhen goes into the greenhouse at night to put out sweet potato vines, sprouted potatoes, and pumpkin and winter melon seedlings.
These are all seedlings that Li Lanzhen cultivated in the space.
She has been very busy lately.
After finishing the day's work, I still need to cultivate seedlings in the space at night.
Sometimes she would bring the Scrophularia ningpoensis into the space to help with the work.
One day, they were observing poultry and livestock in the space-based breeding farm.
Xuan Shen said to her, "Auntie, there is a bit of spiritual energy here."
You can bring Han Mingxiang in here to read and practice calligraphy; it should be much more effective.
Li Lanzhen seemed to be deep in thought.
She had thought about it, but the planting and harvesting here were all done automatically, requiring no extra labor.
If it weren't for the mysterious ginseng suddenly awakening in the space, she wouldn't have let anyone know about its existence.
Li Lanzhen glanced at the Scrophularia.
"I'll think about it. Hmph! I don't know how you managed to survive here."
Xuan Shen, with an extremely strong survival instinct, immediately tried to ingratiate himself.
"That's because my aunt and I are destined to meet. If it weren't for my aunt's kindness in bringing me here when I was seriously injured, the Scrophularia would have been gone long ago! Hehe."
Li Lanzhen ignored his chuckles and was thinking to herself, "How am I going to explain bringing Han Mingxiang into this space?"
When Xuan Shen awoke, she said that this was a secret place that belonged only to her!
My head hurts!
"Your head bodyguard hasn't woken up yet?"
"Yes, but I just checked his pulse, so he should be able to wake up in the next three days."
"Alright, where is the Crown Prince? It's been ten days to half a month since you gave him the antidote, and there's still no sign of him waking up?"
Xuan Shen frowned and shook her head. "Auntie, the Crown Prince's vital signs have stabilized, and the toxins in his body have been mostly cleared. However, there is no sign that he is about to wake up."
Li Lanzhen frowned as well, "How did you explain to your uncle where the Crown Prince is?"
"I only told my uncle that the Crown Prince was in a secret place to detoxify and recuperate."
"I think it's time to move the Crown Prince out."
"Have your uncle come and examine the Crown Prince."
Xuan Shen lowered her head and thought for a moment, "Alright, Auntie, when would be a good day to move the Crown Prince out?"
"Let's do it tonight. The Crown Prince will be kept in the east wing of my courtyard."
Chang Fu and the other four were sent to the training camp by Li Lanzhen.
She told them to learn their skills well, hoping they would all be qualified guards when they came out of training camp.
So now, in Li Lanzhen's courtyard, there are her, Han Yuemei, and four children: Linglong, Miaomiao, and Douhua Datou.
“Alright, I’ll take my uncle to see the Crown Prince tomorrow.”
"Auntie, let Su Chen come and stay with you tomorrow too."
Li Lanzhen also realized that it wouldn't be convenient for the Crown Prince to live in her courtyard.
Her own daughter had reached marriageable age, and the crown prince was ten years old.
It would be good to have Su Chen go and keep him company.
"I'll have Han Yuemei stay at her maternal grandmother's house for a few days tomorrow."
Xuan Shen also thought of this at this moment, and he said to Li Lanzhen, "Auntie, how about letting the Crown Prince and Su Chen stay in the stone house in Calabash Valley?"
Upon hearing his words, Li Lanzhen thought of the study in that dark cave.
A heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed) was also built in the stone house on the east side.
Hua Zixi prepared all the bedding and blankets for them.
If the Crown Prince goes to stay there, she can just bring another batch of daily necessities.
Moreover, the people in Hulu Valley are all Bai Houpu's own people.
There are no safety issues.
"Okay. You can go to Calabash Valley to recuperate. I'll prepare some supplies for you to take there."
"Tomorrow when we reach the entrance of the East Mountain Cave, we'll move the prince out again, and you can carry him across to Calabash Valley to give him to your uncle."
Scrophularia carried the prince into Calabash Valley without attracting the attention of the people working in the herb fields.
Bai Houpu already knew that the Crown Prince was going to recuperate here.
They were ushered into the east room, where Li Lanzhen saw a thick quilt on the kang (heated brick bed).
The kang table and kang cabinet are all new, and a desk with writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstones is placed by the window.
These were all prepared by Li Lanzhen.
Su Chen and Linglong were already waiting here.
Li Lanzhen carried a bamboo basket on her back and a large hamster in her hand, and went to the kitchen.
At this time, there was no one in the kitchen; they had probably all gone to dry the medicinal herbs.
Just then, she started taking things outside.
A basket of chicken, duck, and goose eggs; three plump hens; two ducks; a jar of lard; five catties of millet; five catties of wheat flour; and ten catties of white rice.
She saw white flour and white rice in the grain jar, which must have been sent by Hua Zixi.
Hua Zixi also gave Bai Houpu a boat, about the same size as the boat in their Peach Blossom Spring.
After settling the Crown Prince in, Li Lanzhen left.
She walked through Calabash Valley and looked at the clean and tidy medicinal herbs in the valley.
Near the stream in Dongshan, pens for chickens, ducks, and geese have been built.
These were sent by Han Shunde; he gave five of each kind.
Later, Li Lanzhen had Xuan Shen send over ten chickens, ten ducks, and six geese.
In this way, people in Calabash Valley can eat eggs freely.
Li Lanzhen did not go back but left the cave and went to the small platform on the east side.
Standing there, she wanted to see the Valley of Forgetfulness.
However, it cannot be seen from here; only when you walk down to the large platform can you vaguely see the Valley of Forgetfulness.
Li Lanzhen has already confirmed her relationship with Bai Yuanzhi.
The Valley of Forgetfulness was the place they found and built.
There were many of them back then, and most of them lived here.
Growing crops and vegetables is their main occupation.
It turns out there's a shortcut from Calabash Valley to Forget-Worry Valley.
There is a natural gap in the mountain wall across the stream from Hulu Valley, big enough for an adult man to pass through. By walking along the valley, you can directly reach the entrance to Forget-Worry Valley.
No need to go through two complicated platforms!
What will happen to the people of Wangyou Valley when they settle down next spring?
We still need to discuss this with Han Shunde and the others as soon as possible.
It's best to discuss things early on to avoid unnecessary complications.
After watching for a while, I noticed that snow had also fallen in Forget-Worry Valley. The snow hadn't melted, and the area below the mountain was covered in a blanket of white.
Li Lanzhen didn't think much about how the people in Forget-Worry Valley spent the winter or how they lived; it was no longer her concern.
She returned to the cave and prepared to go home.
As we were passing through the Hulu Valley pass, Xuan Shen, who rushed out from inside, grabbed me and pulled me inside.
After entering the east room, I found that the back wall was open. I went through the wall and stood next to the desk in the basement.
Li Lanzhen then saw that the bed, which was originally against the wall, was now flipped over and placed upright against the wall.
A hole appeared underground.
"What is this? The entrance to the tunnel? Who discovered it? We've been searching for so long and haven't found it!"
Linglong, pulling Su Chen along, giggled, "Grandma Lanzhen, it's Brother Su Chen! He's so amazing!"
