Quickly wear a life of peace

With a smile on his face, Song Changgeng proudly introduced the rice improved by Song Qingning to Eunuch Wu.

He described in detail the advantages and characteristics of this rice, focusing on its improved yield.

Eunuch Wu listened attentively, with a look of shock on his face. He really didn't expect that a young lady in the boudoir could have such ability.

Song Changgeng was very satisfied when he saw this, for he knew what kind of impact this news would have on the imperial court.

Then, Song Changgeng warmly invited Eunuch Wu to visit the farm in person. He wanted Eunuch Wu to experience for himself the growing environment and improvement results of this rice.

Eunuch Wu agreed with some excitement. He was also curious about this high-yield rice.

On the way to the farm, Song Changgeng and Eunuch Wu talked as they walked. Song Changgeng continued to introduce the various benefits of rice, while Eunuch Wu exclaimed from time to time.

Both of them were full of expectations for the future, as if they had seen a good harvest.

If this is true, it would be incredible! Although the improved seeds were developed by the Song family, he brought the news back, so he must have also benefited from it.

With such excitement, Eunuch Wu finally arrived at his destination.

As soon as he got off the carriage, he rushed to the edge of the field impatiently, but at first glance, he was stunned.

The rice in the fields was golden yellow, and the heavy rice ears bent their waists, as if the earth was showing people its joy of harvest.

Eunuch Wu opened his eyes wide, opened his mouth, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

He was not a man who had never seen the world. He had often accompanied the emperor to inspect the planting conditions in the imperial farm.

But compared with the rice here, those are just dwarfed by the ones here. There is no comparison at all!

After a long while, Eunuch Wu came back to his senses. He excitedly grabbed Song Changgeng's hand and asked anxiously, "Sir Song, is this rice really so productive? How much can you harvest from one acre of land?"

Song Changgeng did not answer his question directly, but said with a smile: "Don't worry, Eunuch Wu, you came at the right time. We are planning to harvest the rice in the next two days. Why don't you harvest an acre of land first and let you see the results yourself?" After that, he ordered the people around him to bring a few sickles and prepare to start harvesting.

Eunuch Wu quickly shook his head and refused, "No, no, no, no! Lord Song, let's follow the prior plan. Such good rice cannot have any accidents." After saying that, he looked at Song Changgeng meaningfully.

After thinking about it, Song Changgeng nodded and agreed, "Father-in-law is right. It looks like the best time to harvest is three days at the latest. It's just right for Father-in-law to rest here and enjoy the unique scenery here for a few days, okay?"

Eunuch Wu also returned to his previous smile at this time, waving his hands and saying, "Ah~ Lord Song, this is wrong! At such an important moment, of course we have to watch here! I have to see the rice harvest with my own eyes before I can rest assured! Lord Song, please understand and considerate."

Song Qingning was impatient watching the two people talking to each other here, but it was not easy for him to leave without permission, so he could only quietly wink at Song Changgeng.

Unfortunately, Song Changgeng acted as if he didn't see anything and kept flattering Eunuch Wu.

Fortunately, it was getting late, so the two chatted for a while. Song Changgeng then ordered someone to arrange accommodation for Eunuch Wu and his group, and then he led everyone away from the rice fields.

Song Qingning took the opportunity to take his leave and went to arrange food.

Little did she know that after she left, the two men started praising her again.

Two days later, after observing the growth of the rice, we could finally start harvesting.

At the command, farmers picked up their sickles and started harvesting.

Eunuch Wu also insisted on harvesting an acre of rice himself and threshing an acre of millet himself to see what the yield was.

Song Changgeng just watched happily and did not stop it.

In the end, Eunuch Wu was responsible for the entire acre of land himself, from harvesting to bagging and weighing, nothing else involved.

Song Qingning admired him. As a man who had never done heavy work in his daily life, he really tried his best for the credit!

Fortunately, the results were encouraging, and in the end this acre of land yielded 600 kilograms of rice.

Not to mention the farmers who made a living by farming, even Eunuch Wu was so excited that he shed tears.

"Good, good, good! Sir Song has done a great deed! I will go back and report this to the emperor. Sir Song, just wait for the good news."

Song Changgeng immediately tactfully stuffed a purse into Eunuch Wu's pocket, which made Eunuch Wu even more satisfied, and his eyes were almost smiling into slits.

However, Song Changgeng was a gentleman after all, and he did not take away the credit for his daughter's achievements. In the memorial he submitted, he clearly wrote down Song Qingning's achievements.

However, this action caused dissatisfaction among the women in the family, especially Zhang. She didn't understand Song Changgeng's behavior. What's the point of a girl asking for this credit?

She can't be an official, and she will get married in the future. What's the point of giving her the credit?

It would be better to give it to the son in the family so that he can enter the court and get a better promotion.

Not to mention Zhang, even Song Qingning's biological mother Wang had the same idea.

They had thoughts in their minds and showed them on their faces. Later, Song Changgeng discovered it and called the two of them to the study, scolded them severely, and explained the reasons before letting them go.

"Don't just look at the present, look further ahead!"

"I originally thought that after such a long time, you should have understood it very well, but I didn't expect that you are still so short-sighted!"

"Do you know what the current situation is?"

"There is a turmoil over the throne in the imperial court right now. The more the emperor favors our family, the more dangerous it will be."

"What do you need most at this time?"

"It's low-key, it's famous!"

"This achievement originally belonged to the second girl. As her father and brother, we should not protect her from the wind and rain, but how can we take away her credit?"

"If you want a high position and a high salary, then work hard for it yourself. What's the point of robbing your own family? What future can you have?"

"But with Qingning's contribution, our family will have a protective amulet, and we won't be targeted by the princes and be dragged into their side."

"What's more, Qingning might be able to find a good marriage through this."

"So, don't worry about this matter. I know what to do!"

"Remember, don't say such things again no matter when or where, or don't blame me for being rude!"

After saying this, Song Changgeng turned away, leaving Zhang and Wang looking at each other, secretly rejoicing in their hearts.

Fortunately, they did not make any big mistakes.

When Eunuch Wu left, he happily took away the planting manual and the acre of rice.

As for the various gifts prepared for him by the Song family, he did not take them seriously.
