Chapter 1934: Returning to Taoyuan Village
It was now August and September, and the rice was about to be harvested in the second season.
On the way, he had also looked at the golden rice fields and felt especially gratified.
Seeing that this year’s harvest was very good, the commoners could not go hungry anymore.
This was one of the most important matters of the people as a ruler.
However, what he did not expect was that the rice fields in Taoyuan Village looked even more gratifying. The harvest must have been even better.
However, in the past two to three years, Taoyuan Village’s harvest was always better than other places.
In other places, the best harvest was about seven stones per mu, but in Taoyuan Village, it was eight or nine stones per mu.
The Emperor looked at the gratifying rice fields and asked with a smile,” Girl, when can we harvest these rice?”
Lin Yuelan shook her head and smiled.” I don’t know. Old Master, I came back with you. I haven’t had the time to go to the fields to take a look.”
Lin Deshan smiled and replied,” Brother Wen, it’ll probably be three or four days. If the weather is fine!”
When the Emperor heard this, he understood and said,” Alright, then it’s better for me to come at the right time than to come early!”
The corners of Lin Yuelan’s mouth twitched. He was rushing to harvest the rice.
Lin Yuelan smiled and teased him,” Then, Old Master, don’t complain about being tired later.”
“You little girl, you’ve underestimated me!” The Emperor also smiled, his mood clearly much better.
After all, the Emperor was a little old. He had suffered a major shock previously, and his health was not very good. In addition, he had travelled a long distance and was tired from the journey. He must be tired.
When Lin Deshan heard this, he nodded and said,” Mm, alright. You can go! Eunuch Zhang, you must be tired from the journey. You should go and rest. Brother Zhang and I are here to take care of Brother Wen. You don’t have to worry!”
Eunuch Zhang hesitated for a moment before nodding.” Thank you, Old Masters!”
“Eunuch Zhang, you’re too polite!” Lin Deshan said with a smile.
The old Emperor slept for most of the day. When he woke up, the sky outside was already dark.
Under the servant’s service, he quickly finished rinsing.
When he arrived at the courtyard under the guidance of the servants, he was stunned when he saw the scenery in the courtyard.
Lanterns were hung all around, illuminating the entire courtyard. It reflected the exotic flowers and plants in the courtyard, making it especially beautiful. What surprised him the most was that there was a small lake in the courtyard. Water gushed out from the lake, and the water shot straight into the air and fell down. It was very beautiful.
The Emperor pointed at the small lake curiously and asked,” Girl, this is amazing. How did you do it?”
It was natural for water to flow downwards, but the water in this lake was clearly gushing upwards from the bottom.
Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” Old Master, this is called a fountain! This fountain can even dance to the music.”
The Emperor’s eyes immediately lit up, and he asked with interest,” Really?”
Lin Yuelan nodded. She snapped her fingers and shouted,” Play some music!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the band that had been waiting for a long time immediately began to play music!
Of course, this band was a combination of Chinese and Western music that Lin Yuelan had carefully nurtured.
It was just that the people there did not know.
