Yuxiu drove the tiller quickly in the field and soon turned half of the land in front of her.

"Dad, do you want to try it? Come up and I'll teach you."

Yuxiu stopped the machine and said to Xu Qinghe, whose eyes were shining:

"If you learn it, you won't need me to do these things anymore."

She said this very straightforwardly, and there was no need for beating around the bush between father and daughter.

"Of course. When I, your father, learn how to do these rough jobs, there will be no need for a little girl like you to do them."

Xu Qinghe nodded repeatedly and said that judging from the speed of this machine, the fields in front of him might not be enough for him to work on alone.

So the father and daughter were willing to teach and learn at the same time, and they hit it off immediately.

"You two can learn slowly. I have some time now. I will go and process my herbs."

Cui was not very interested in these things. She was only thinking about the herbs she had just picked. She left a word and went to pack up and process her herbs.

After she was busy for a while and came over to take a look, she was surprised to find that Xu Qinghe was driving another piece of iron called a seeder under Yuxiu's command.

In just a short while, not only was such a large field plowed, but crops were also planted immediately?

If this happened outside, even with cows plowing the land, a family would still have to work for seven or eight days to plant the crops, right?

"Mother, this thing is really useful."

The field was planted quickly. Xu Qinghe parked the machine and then ran to talk to Cui with a happy face.

"I don't feel tired at all when I farm like this. Even if I farm dozens of acres by myself, it's a piece of cake."

It's a pity that such a good thing cannot be taken out and used outside. Otherwise, the fields on his farm could be cultivated in just a few days, and there would not be enough people to do it.

"Aren't there still a lot of fields ahead? Since you like farming, then find some time to cultivate that area as well. Whether you want to grow food or medicinal herbs, it's great."

At this time, Xu Qinghe was very high-spirited, and Cui was looking at him with expectation.

The way this man works seriously is very attractive.

The way he sat steadily on the seed drill just now made Cui, the old couple, unable to take their eyes away.

Looking at it now, not only Cui and Yuxiu have changed a lot, but Xu Qinghe has also changed a lot. His whole spirit and demeanor is completely different.

If the people from Xujia Village saw him on the street, they would probably think he just looked similar and would not dare to recognize him at all.

"Okay then. I'll go and plow that area up later. Then you can decide what kind of medicinal herbs are suitable to plant. We can plant them early."

The reason why Xu Qinghe agreed so readily was that he had asked Yuxiu before why they only cultivated this side, while there were still large tracts of fertile land lying waste in front.

Yuxiu said that a lot of grain had been harvested here, and she had not yet decided what to plant in other places.

In that case, we might as well use it to grow some medicinal herbs. The quality of the herbs produced here will definitely be much better than those outside.

When their pharmacy opens, they can purchase a batch of medicinal materials from outside, and that will be enough.

"You have been very busy these days preparing for the full moon banquet, and your daughter has just returned from such a long distance. You should both have a good rest."

Seeing that Xu Qinghe was about to go to work, Cui quickly stopped him and asked him and Yuxiu to go and rest.

Fang Zheng's fields will not run away if they are left here, and it will be the same if we work on them again tomorrow.

That was true, so Yuxiu took the two of them out of the space, went to see the two children together, and then went back to her own yard to rest.

Early the next morning, Yuxiu followed Xu Qinghe and the others out in a horse-drawn carriage. When they came back, everyone found that there was an ox cart following the carriage, pulling several lambs that were bleating non-stop.

Although they said they were lambs, in fact Yuxiu and Xu Qinghe both chose adult sheep. When they got home, they said that they met someone who was selling sheep in the city and bought them back together.

This kind of thing is very normal, and no one in the mansion felt there was anything strange about it.

The housekeeper quickly made arrangements and started processing the matter according to Yuxiu and Xu Qinghe's requests.

Yuxiu didn't have to do any of these things. She took out some seasonings, such as cumin powder, pepper powder, and Sichuan pepper powder... She took them all out, unpacked them, put them together, and gave them to the people in the big kitchen.

Roasting a whole lamb is a little more troublesome, but the lamb skewers and stewed lamb came out very quickly. It didn't take long before Yuxiu and the others were holding a big bowl and started drinking lamb soup.

The mutton soup is already very fresh, and she fed these sheep a lot of spiritual spring water, so it naturally tastes better than ordinary mutton soup.

The lamb skewers are also grilled until golden and juicy, making people feel very appetizing just by looking at them.

There were so many delicious foods, and even with Uncle Cui and his companions, they couldn't eat much. Apart from leaving two sheep for Yuxiu to send to Prince Ning's Mansion, the rest were let the maids and servants taste together.

The family was enjoying their meal when Yu Guifu, the doorman, came running in with a visiting card, saying that the eldest lady of the Luo family was here to visit.

"I don't know if there's something urgent. I see Madam Luo is waiting at the door."

He recounted what he had just seen, and then stood aside waiting for his master's reply.

Generally speaking, for this kind of thing, unless you are very close friends, you have to send a visiting card a few days in advance. Only after the other party responds can you go there on the agreed day.

The Luo family is quite interesting. I don’t know what’s going on. They just ignored the rules and came to our house in such a hurry.

"Reply to her and tell her that I just came out of confinement and was exhausted from entertaining guests yesterday. I will not entertain any guests in the near future. Please ask them to go back."

Cui thought about it, then waved her hand and asked the servant to go and deliver the message first.

"Madam Luo is the mistress of the family. I don't know what happened to her that made her rush here in such a hurry."

Yuxiu guessed at various possibilities. Since she went to the border, she no longer thought about the Luo family.

It was only when I saw Xu Lewan yesterday that I realized that although she had recovered a lot and always had a smile on her face, if you looked closely, you could find that there was still a hint of sadness in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
