The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Yinzhen brought his group to a vegetable plot specially opened up in the farm.

Changning looked okay, not particularly big. It was probably about the same size as the small garden of Qingzhiyuan. It should be enough to grow some vegetables.

However, this piece of land has not been processed yet, there are still some weeds in it, and it has not been cultivated yet.

The corner of Changning's mouth twitched. How long will this take?

It makes people sweat just looking at it.

Yinzhen's goal was to reclaim all the land today, and of course he needed tools.

One plow, one ox. The old ox was still panting and wagging its tail.

"Wow! Father! That cow is so big!" Hong Zhao immediately became very interested in the animal.

Fearing that he would get hurt, Yinzhen hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Don't go over there, Hongzhao. You are too small to lift the plow. Just pull out some grass and shovel the ground with a hoe."

Hong Zhao curled his lips. Did his father forget that he was born strong?

So, with the intention of showing off, he sneaked up to the plow and tried to lift it up with all his strength. Surprisingly, he actually lifted it up, although it was a little shaky. But the plow was not light and only a grown man could lift it.

Yinzhen was surprised at his son's strength, but also relieved that today's farm work would not be too difficult.

After saying that, he began to arrange the work. As Hong Zhao was the only two men present, he asked him to plow the fields with him, and the two girls followed behind and did what they could.

As for Changning, just sit for a while under an umbrella, drink tea and eat snacks.

At the beginning, a group of people were working enthusiastically. Hongzhao even rolled up his sleeves to show how capable he was. He worked so hard that he was panting, with the same breathing frequency as that old ox.

Although Yinzhen was new to farming, he had long wanted to do it, so he looked up a lot of information. There was also an old farmer beside him to guide him, so although he was a little unskilled, the progress was relatively smooth.

Su Peisheng was worried. He had trained this cow for several months and it should not hurt its master. But he was afraid that it would poop everywhere. If it accidentally soiled its master, he would have to chop off several heads!

Fortunately, the situation he was worried about never happened. The old ox was obviously used to doing farm work and was much faster than Yinzhen and his friends.

Hutuli was the same. Relying on his martial arts skills, he refused to be inferior to others. He waved the small hoe with great energy and recited poems as he did so.

"When the day of hoeing is noon, sweat drips down the soil. Who would have thought that every grain of Chinese food on the plate is hard work."

Yinzhen nodded repeatedly after reading this poem. It was good that the children realized the preciousness of grain. He did not want his children to be ignorant of the five grains.

Yierha on the side was sweating profusely. She was secretly a little anxious. She was several years older than Hutuli and Hongzhao. She couldn't be inferior to her younger brothers and sisters.

But it turns out that she really can't compare to him.

With a body that had been precious for years, he didn't have much strength. After working for a while, he could hardly lift his arms. When he looked up, he found that his younger brothers and sisters were much faster than him. He felt a little discouraged.

Yierha glanced to the side again and saw Chun'er's mother sitting on a large recliner with a maid holding an umbrella beside her, eating fruit leisurely.

She swallowed secretly and thought to herself, Chun'e's mother, please call me, Chun'e's mother, please call me.

I don’t know if they were in sync or what, but Changning just sent someone to ask them to drink some water and rest for a while.

It’s only a few hours now, and everyone is so tired that their faces are red and they are sweating profusely.

Several people were drinking tea in big gulps, one cup after another. Changning felt distressed and wanted to laugh at the sight.

She remembered Miaoyu in A Dream of Red Mansions saying, "One cup is for tasting, two cups is for quenching thirst, three cups is like drinking like a cow or a donkey."

They gulped down the cups one by one, and they really looked alike. Changning covered his mouth and laughed secretly.

Seeing her smile, Yinzhen felt a little embarrassed.

"How are you doing here? Are you tired? Do you want to go back and rest?"

Chang Ning shook his head: "No, I can't get any sun exposure here, and I'm not tired. The weather is quite comfortable right now, I just need a little breeze."

Yinzhen ordered Chuixue beside him: "When the wind starts to blow, cover your master with a blanket."

Fubuki nodded in agreement, she was already prepared.

After drinking tea, Yinzhen went back to work. This time, Hongzhao and Hutuli stopped shouting that it was fun. They both looked a little sad. However, they did not dare to disobey their father, so they had to bite the bullet and go back.

Yierha also sighed, wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief, and touched his face, which was hot from the sun.

She was about to follow him resignedly, but she heard Changning shouting, "Yilha, Hutuli, come here."

The two little girls hurried over, and Changning gave each of them a piece of dessert: "Sit down and eat for a while, there's no rush."

Hutuli laughed and said, "That's great, mother, you really understand me."

Yi Erha followed suit and sat down: "Thank you, Chun'er mother."

"What's the big deal? Let them have a bowl of yogurt later. It will be cool and comfortable to eat now."

So, Hong Zhao, who was full of envy and jealousy, saw his two sisters openly slacking off over there with their little lips pouted. Seeing that their father was not paying attention, he ran over to get some food and drinks.

Yinzhen turned around, smiled helplessly, and had to continue working.

This day’s hard work made the children realize that farming is a very tiring and difficult task, even more difficult than solving a trigonometry problem.

So the children ate all the dishes and meals in the evening.

Even Hongzhao is no longer picky about food. He eats all the meat and vegetables he can.

Changning seriously suspected that he was just tired, as he ate three bowls of Eunuch Ma's spicy pork belly sauce with rice.

By the end of the meal, Changning was worried that he would have indigestion.

Yinzhen asked the children with a smile about their feelings about farming, and the three children looked at each other in confusion.

Hong Zhao swallowed and whispered, "I think it's very meaningful. When my brothers come back, I must let them try it too!"

Chang Ning glanced at him and thought, "Oh my goodness, aren't you a brother-con? Why are you trying to trick me?"

Yinzhen touched his head and praised him, "Hongzhao was great today and helped Ama a lot. We have already cleaned up half of the vegetable fields. It will only take two more days. Is Hongzhao willing to continue helping Ama?"

Hong Zhao was a little flattered by his father's praise, and hurriedly patted his chest and said loudly: "Yes!"

Hutuli said that this stupid brother was hopeless, and she said quickly: "My elder sister and I will help mother look after my brother tomorrow. Hongmin and Hongchen are still making a fuss today because they didn't find him."

Yinzhen nodded. He had never intended to let his daughters work anymore. Farming was too difficult for them. Just one day of experience would be enough.

It's Hong Zhao, he has to control his temper.
