After getting the rye from Qiao Lan, Wang Kaizhi was satisfied and ready to pack up and go home.
When they learned that Wang Kaizhi was leaving, the Duan family prepared good wine and food to see each other off.
Before leaving, several young children prepared a heavy oil paper bag for Wang Kaizhi.
Wang Kaizhi took it and felt it was heavy, weighing at least six or seven kilograms.
"What is this?" Wang Kaizhi asked curiously?
Duan Yutao smiled and explained, "Uncle, this is a gift that we pooled our money to buy for uncle. Please open it and take a look at it while uncle is eating!"
Wang Kaizhi was immediately overjoyed! What a good boy! He already knew how to buy gifts for his uncle!
"Okay, uncle, I listen to you!" Wang Kaizhi smiled from ear to ear.
The carriage stopped at the inn outside the city. After Wang Kaizhi had dinner, he suddenly remembered the gifts prepared for him by several nephews of the Duan family.
I quickly opened the oil paper bag and saw what was inside.
Looking at the large package of hawthorn products, Wang Kaizhi felt a little doubt on his face.
Why are they all hawthorn?
After a moment he figured it out!
It is normal for children to like snacks. Knowing that he was leaving, several children specially bought a lot of their favorite hawthorn snacks and gave them to his uncle! They were afraid that he would be hungry on the road!
Wang Kaizhi happily picked up a piece of hawthorn cake and stuffed it into his mouth. A strong sour taste went straight to Tianling Gai!
Is that sour? No, that is sweet, it is the children’s heart!
Wang Kaizhi endured the sourness and finished the entire piece of pastry, and then counted the remaining pastries in the oil paper bag. He had to calculate carefully, be more careful, and eat slowly.

In November, there was no more food to harvest in the fields.
Qiao Lan asked people in the house to inquire about it, and said that due to this year's freeze, production in many places had been reduced. Many officials in the court were worried about food, and the people were also very worried.
Qiao Lan's fields were not greatly affected by natural disasters, but they were still less than expected.
Qiao Lan plans to save part of it at home and sell the other part as seeds.
Although it is not as good as what is produced by the system, it is much better than what farmers have in their own hands.
It's just that ordinary people usually save enough for next year's spring seeds after harvesting, and rarely go out to buy seeds. Just when Qiao Lan was thinking about how to sell seeds to the people around the capital, she suddenly heard news from the capital.
A few days ago, the daughter of a small official was abducted in the street. The official's family was well off and he hired a mother-in-law to take care of his daughter.
The mother-in-law hurried back to tell her master the news and described the appearance of the captor.
Upon hearing this, the petty official knew that a powerful force had kidnapped his daughter. No matter how scared he was, he still went to the governor to report the case and asked his superior to make the decision for him.
The case was then written down on a pleading and submitted to the Yamen.
Word spread in the palace that the daughter of a minor official had been attracted by His Majesty, who was traveling in private. He took her away and brought her back to the palace to make a beauty.
The lost daughter suddenly became a noble person in the palace!
As soon as the news came out, the people were in an uproar.
Many people are extremely envious. Their daughter has become the emperor's wife. It can be said that one person has achieved enlightenment and ascended to heaven, and the whole family has become rich and prosperous.
The officials in the court were arguing endlessly about this matter!
Some ministers felt that Your Majesty had done something wrong by taking away a common girl privately, so they tried their best to remonstrate with you. Some ministers thought that Your Majesty was rich all over the world, and everything in the world belonged to Your Majesty. He was just an ordinary common girl, so it was not a big deal.
This matter is causing quite a stir, but the person in charge is the emperor above. His Majesty feels that he is right. What can the ministers below do? They cannot commit the crime below!
After listening to this, Qiao Lan felt a little overwhelmed.
It is an honor to be favored by His Majesty, but to forcefully take people away from the street without saying a word is no different from sending bandits and bullies. Even if it is to send someone to pass a decree saying which girl from which family should be recruited into the palace
, it would be a good idea to invite the girl away.
Your Majesty is Your Majesty, not the people below can speak.
At this point, Qiao Lan's only thought was that she had to keep a low profile and keep a low profile, so as not to make any big news and get the attention of her superiors.
The food and land that should be garrisoned must be garrisoned!
If things go wrong, she will run away with her family!

Winters that get colder every year cause ordinary people great distress, but for the high gates standing on the upper floors, this is nothing to worry about.
It is extremely elegant to arrive early in winter and enjoy the snow and plum blossoms earlier.
No, Xue Hua hasn't come yet, and more posts than Xue Hua have flooded into the concierge of Nujun Mansion, inviting Qiao Lan to their house as a guest, and even urging Qiao Lan to take the Duan family's children and grandchildren with her.
Firstly, I am looking forward to making good friends with the Duan family, and secondly, I want to get closer to the Duan family.
Mrs. Wang had arranged a blind date for Duan Sitong earlier. At that time, "The Farming Notes" had not yet been written.
In the eyes of many people, the so-called Hui Tian Nu is nothing more than a few recipes for cultivating and fertilizing fields.
It's not just some luck, it's not her own ability.
Therefore, Duan Sitong's blind date journey was not smooth. Wang took advantage of the eldest princess's favor to attend many banquets. The ladies she met either disliked Duan Sitong's age or their family's low status.
Marrying a daughter-in-law will not do any good to your children.
When "Farming Notes" came out, things were different.
After learning that the granddaughter of the Duan family was engaged to the Ning family, everyone immediately regretted it and hated themselves for not seeing the uniqueness of the granddaughter of the Jun family.
Many wealthy families also secretly sent letters to the Wang family. The letters clearly stated that they hoped that the Wang family would marry their daughter and they would provide her with certain benefits and treat her well.
Mrs. Wang is a very sensible person and doesn't pay attention to these people at all. Her daughter has finally found someone she likes, so who cares about the wealth of their family!
Duan Sitong was dying, so they turned their attention to the other children of the Duan family.
Speaking of which, several of the male grandsons of the Duan family are already in their teens and are old enough to get engaged. However, it will take several years until they reach the age of adulthood. The big family has a big business and can pick out those of the right age.
daughter, but can’t wait to send my own girl over.
Compared with several children, Duan Mingchen is obviously more suitable.
Duan Mingchen is already over 20 years old, and he is not young. He has not been engaged in these years, perhaps because he was delayed by family affairs.
You can get engaged and married immediately!
They can also form a relationship with the Duan family earlier.
The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and Mrs. Wang was also worried about Duan Mingchen’s marriage!
However, Mrs. Wang's previous thoughts were mostly on her daughter. Now that her daughter is married, it is time to devote herself to taking care of things for her brother-in-law.
So he took those posts and letters and went to Qiao Lan to talk about the matter.
Mrs. Wang: "Mother, the fourth master is not young anymore. It's time to find someone who knows how to deal with life and death."
