Chapter 402: Do what needs to be done
Yuan Jiaqi looked at her with expectant eyes. Qiao Mai smiled, pulled his arm, and flashed into the space.
He widened his eyes, looking at the magnificent space.
"Is this where you perform your magic tricks?"
"Not bad, most of my things come from here."
Qiao Mai took him flying in the air of the space. "Xiao Qing manages all of this."
"Heavens, then doesn't Wife have more land than the Emperor governs?"
"How much does he manage? The land area here is thousands of times his."
As they were talking, Xiao Qing flashed in front of them. "Master, Master's husband, greetings."
"Xiao Qing, you can speak human language?"
Yuan Jiaqi looked at this scene in disbelief. "Then, then Wife, why not just buy a table of food? It would save us from cooking later. Shall we eat here?"
Qiao Mai set up the back with a barrier, using many talismans according to need.
Where the peaches had been picked, another peach soon grew back, exactly the same. Yuan Jiaqi was quite shocked.
Mentioning this, the Empress felt a bit uncomfortable.
Xiao Qing diligently poured the wine and then obediently flew away, not disturbing the couple's life.
"Oh? Not renting anymore?"
Qiao Mai first bought some small items from the platform. She placed the silver on the table, the money bag flashed and disappeared, and the things she bought appeared.
Once the gate was closed, Yuan Jiaqi, led by Qiao Mai, started tossing things around with the servants at home.
Xiao Qing puffed out its little neck. "Master's husband, you don't know yet, right? Every piece of vegetation here will regenerate after being picked. If you don't believe me, look."
As for the capital, she didn't want to know anything. If they were willing to come back and see, her husband would entertain them; if not, she would leave them be.
Hearing this, he was happy. He was afraid that once Wife went into seclusion, she would throw him outside, and he wouldn't see her for months on end.
As soon as she finished with the house, Qiao Mai entered the space and began her seclusion.
"I am the Space Spirit here. What human language? I am also proficient in beast language."
"Beauty skin, hero's grave; he was fascinated by that skin."
The Empress lay comfortably on a bamboo chair, eating an extra-large purple grape, her eyes squinting in sweetness.
Not only that, Qiao Mai also set up the front courtyard with a barrier, using extreme-grade spirit stones to set up a great array inside.
It was impossible to see everything, so she took him to the computer.
"Wife, several of our family's tenant farmers might want to terminate their leases."
"I'll use a technique to seal the backyard. From now on, even without a warm shed, it will be as warm as spring all year round."
"Emperor, should we return to Tianshui Town for the New Year?"
People who live here for a long time will prolong their lives. Not to mention living for hundreds of years, at the very least, they will live longer than normal people.
The Golden Dragon Guard often told the Emperor about Tianshui Town. "Emperor, that side has finished renovation. The land behind has all been fenced off, and trees and various vegetables and fruits have been planted."
"It really has everything."
Only for industries like the Qiao Ji Snack Shop would he leave the money and finally hand it over to Qiao Mai to manage.
Three days later, all the bathrooms were built; five days later, all the sewage treatment renovations were completed; half a month later, the sixty-five mu of land in the back were all fenced off.
Yuan Jiaqi stared at the notebook and swallowed. "Can you buy from here too?"
"Then after Wife goes into seclusion, can I not come in anymore?"
"Hehe, that's fine."
"Not now, maybe in two years. The Crown Prince seems to have changed a lot, but I know he is hiding himself. I don't want Ling'er to have any trouble, and then it would be hard to explain to the in-laws."
The couple spent a loving night in the space, and the next day, the renovation of Jixiang Yuan officially began.
The Emperor snorted. "It would be strange if you could get in. Even if you could, if you didn't have some skills, you would die inside."
Xiao Qing set the table directly in the courtyard. Looking at the table full of dishes, the couple sat down.
"Hehe, good."
"Does Wife usually cultivate here?"
After the running water was introduced to the backyard, it was very convenient for the servants to water the plants.
The gate didn't slowly open until mid-July. Some people curiously looked inside. They didn't know if it was because their eyes were playing tricks on them or for some other reason, but they actually saw what looked like immortal Qi rising inside.
The temperature here is the same all year round, it doesn't blow or rain, and the water used for the fields is from the nearby river.
"You are too amazing."
The Liu family and the Qian family even sent people over to inquire.
"Lord Yuan even works the land himself?"
"Plant whatever you want to plant, it's all handed over to you."
"I really didn't think about bringing you here, because everyone has their own secrets. Actually, I haven't hidden anything from you usually, so it makes no difference whether you come in or not."
"Then Wife is preparing to renovate the house, are you buying from here too?"
This busyness lasted until July. Since the renovation of Jixiang Yuan, the gate had rarely been opened, and the commoners were all guessing if something had happened.
Doesn't this mean there are endless resources? It's truly too awesome.
If he really missed Qiao Mai, he would call Xiao Qing at night when no one was around.
Occasionally, relatives and friends would come over, and he would arrange good wine and food to chat with them for a while, but he never drank too much.
"Husband, the space is almost finished being seen. My space just grows some vegetation and raises some small animals, but things like those rare items are bought from here."
"Exactly, you send someone to fence off all sixty-five mu of land in the back with brick walls. We won't build sheds anymore."
"Ah, sixty-plus mu, what to plant?"
Go out the next day and do what needs to be done.
"Good."
"Hmm?"
She chose a lot of things that both of them liked to eat on the platform, and finally bought a bottle of wine.
The leader of the Golden Dragon Guard curled his lips awkwardly. "Subordinate naturally cannot compare to the Princess Consort; she has so much ability."
Children don't listen to their fathers, daughters don't listen to their mothers; twisted melons aren't sweet. They are all grown up now and can't be managed anymore.
Go into the space and accompany Qiao Mai for the night. This night, he didn't sleep, as if he couldn't look at his wife enough.
"Yes, the air here is very helpful to me, it's more than twice the result with half the effort compared to cultivating outside."
The industries in She County were increasing in profit every year. He divided the income from She County into two halves, one for Chuan'er and one for Ling'er.
"You can summon Xiao Qing; it has the authority to bring you in."
"That goes without saying, my Wife is the most amazing."
"Yes, they have been planting warm sheds for many years, have a certain family foundation, and each family has bought a lot of good farmland."
"Yes, order the styles directly on it and buy them ready-made, so there's no need to build houses. Then build a large pit for sewage treatment on the ground in the back, basically the same as the one in the capital."
It stretched out its little hand, picked a peach, and handed it to Yuan Jiaqi.
In the capital's Jixiang Yuan, the old Emperor and Empress had been living here, sometimes chatting with the old man and the others.
"Yes, the servants at home also work the land every day. I heard the backyard is very beautiful. We Golden Dragon Guards want to go in, but I don't know why we can't. We can only enter through the front gate openly."
Yuan Jiaqi asked while putting food in her bowl.
"Hehe, my Master is the truly amazing one."
After his wife went into seclusion, Yuan Jiaqi managed the family business every day and wouldn't go out unless necessary.
"Wife, I thought I wouldn't be able to wait for you to bring me in for the rest of my life."
"Yes, you sit next to me and watch, I'll demonstrate it for you once."
"How did I give birth to such a son? Except for this point, he is quite good."
"That goes without saying, she is the pillar of our Ming Dynasty. Without her, we would have been finished long ago."
They flew at low altitude to see the ground below better. Yuan Jiaqi couldn't help but sigh.
"He is probably holding a grudge because of the child in that woman's belly, right?"
"I don't care what he does. The future heir must be Ling'er's child. This can be considered an explanation to the in-laws."
The Empress sat up with a start. "Emperor, you mean to bypass the Crown Prince and establish another heir?"
"Why not?"
