A gust of wind blew by, and Fu Qianrun suddenly shuddered, which was noticed by Ye Yanxing.
"Madam, let's go back." Ye Yanxing grabbed Fu Qianrun's waist and pulled him into his arms, trying to give him some warmth.
Fu Qianrun wanted to struggle, but stopped, silently thinking that they were already married.
"Yeah." He responded.
After getting the response, Ye Yanxing took the person down from the roof.
Only after they returned to the bedroom did Ye Yanxing let the man go.
"Fuling, prepare water for bathing." Ye Yanxing gave instructions as he walked in.
"promise."
The next day, after breakfast, Ye Yanxing and Fu Qianrun went out.
When several county governors saw Ye Yanxing and Fu Qianrun going out shopping, they all expressed their willingness to accompany them and take them around Yong'an City and introduce them to the local characteristics.
But they were all rejected by Ye Yanxing.
After all, they weren't really going out just to have fun, so some things were better not to be known by too many people.
Ye Yanxing did not bring anyone with him this time. Only he and Fu Qianrun went out, each riding a horse.
This time they first went to the market to find out the prices, and then went to the farmers' houses in the suburbs to have a look.
"Boss, how much is brown rice?" They entered a grocery store.
"Brown rice is eight cents, polished rice is thirty cents." The boss answered calmly. Seeing that they were dressed unusually, he became more patient.
The main reason is that now there are too many people who come to ask about the price but will not buy. The boss answers countless times every day, but few people buy. Over time, he loses his patience.
Ye Yanxing looked at them one by one and said, "Five pounds of each."
"Okay! It's a discount of one hundred and ninety coins! Thank you, sir!" The shop owner packed the items for them skillfully.
"Madam, please pay." Ye Yanxing took the rice and said to Fu Qianrun.
In fact, Fu Qianrun had already taken out his wallet to pay the bill without Ye Yanxing's instructions.
Ye Yanxing told Fu Qianrun, the butler, that he had never taken a penny from the accounting office, so when Fu Qianrun went out, he also consciously brought a purse with him and filled it with enough silver.
However, Ye Yanxing was not worried about having no money. After he hid in the jade shop and accidentally got this space, he took away all the jade in the shop.
Later, when he came across jade while collecting supplies, he would also collect it.
Not to mention anything else, he had a lot of jade alone, so it was no exaggeration to say that he was as rich as a country.
So, he didn't care about the trivial matters in the palace.
After paying the bill, the two walked out of the grain store and went shopping in other shops, but apart from some cakes, they didn't buy anything else.
It was almost noon when they finished touring the city. They ate a bowl of wontons at a roadside stall, rested for a short while, and then headed out of the city.
Arriving at the village outside the city, Ye Yanxing and Fu Qianrun sat on horseback and walked slowly along the road along the fields.
The scorching sun mercilessly burned the earth, and the land dried up and cracked, as if the vitality had been sucked away.
The crops in the fields were sparse, standing droopy and lifeless.
The leaves that were supposed to be green turned yellow and looked like they would break if touched.
The farmers stood by the fields, their brows furrowed, their faces full of worry, their hearts filled with anxiety and helplessness.
The harvest in spring was not good, and now the harvest in autumn is still not good. It seems that God does not intend to let them survive!
Several old farmers sat silently in the fields, looking at the crops in silence.
At this moment, they were filled with fear about the unknown future, and prayed in their hearts that God would see the suffering of the world and bestow some blessings upon them so that they could get through this difficult time.
Ye Yanxing and Fu Qianrun watched this scene silently, also without saying a word.
Ye Yanxing dismounted, walked to the edge of a field, squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil. It smelled of dry earth. Ye Yanxing rubbed it in his hands, then scattered it into the field.
When the old farmer saw his action, he just turned his head and took a look, and did nothing else.
In the past, they would never allow people to play on their land like this, not even the soil.
Now, there is nothing to gain either way, so it doesn’t matter.
Judging from their clothes, they don’t look like farmers. I wonder why they are here?
"Young men, what are you doing here? Are you looking for someone?" An old farmer thought about it and decided to ask. In case they were bad guys, they should prepare early. Their village could not stand any more trouble.
"Uncle, is this your land?" Ye Yanxing stood up and walked over, and Fu Qianrun followed him.
"Yes." The old farmer's eyes were filled with vicissitudes, "God doesn't give us food to eat!"
"Was this field planted with rice before?" Ye Yanxing pulled out a yellow rice seedling. The rice seedling was very short, not even as long as Ye Yanxing's finger. It was obvious that it had become dry right after it was planted, and it had no chance to grow tall.
"Yeah, no, nothing!"
"It will be fine." Ye Yanxing paused and still said this useless sentence.
The old farmer nodded and said nothing more.
"Uncle, can I come to your house for a bowl of water? We were in a hurry to leave and forgot to bring our water bag." After a while, Ye Yanxing suddenly spoke.
The old farmer turned around and stared at them for a while, confirming that they were not dangerous, and then nodded, "Young masters, please follow me."
"Excuse me."
The old farmer shook his head and led them towards the village.
Ye Yanxing was the one who was responsible for the conversation throughout the whole process. Fu Qianrun did not say a word. He just looked at the scene in front of him with his brows furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death.
"Okay, stop frowning, okay?" Ye Yanxing reached out and smoothed his brows.
"Yeah." Fu Qianrun responded. His brows were no longer furrowed, but his expression was still not good.
"My home is simple, I hope you don't mind." When they arrived at the door, the old farmer pushed open the door and said to Ye Yanxing and the others.
"No, thank you for your help." Ye Yanxing replied.
"Grandpa!" A thin boy ran out of the house, hung on the old farmer's legs, and called him affectionately.
"Hey, is Xiaobao well behaved at home?"
"Xiaobao is so good! Today, brother taught Xiaobao two more words, and Xiaobao has learned them." The boy raised his head proudly.
"Good, good, Xiaobao is the best." The old farmer stroked his head and praised him.
"Of course!" Xiao Bao answered happily, and then looked at Ye Yanxing and Fu Qianrun on the side, "Grandpa, who are these two handsome brothers?"
"Oh, call me brother."
"Hello, two beautiful brothers."
"Go play, little brat."
"Ok!"
Xiaobao jumped and ran out to play.
The old farmer led Ye Yanxing and the other man to the hall and said, "Please take a seat. I'll get you some water."
"Thank you, uncle."
The old farmer quickly returned with two bowls of water, accompanied by a young man.
"This is my eldest grandson, his name is Cheng Yu, he is eighteen years old and a scholar." The old farmer introduced the young man to Ye Yanxing, and his tone was full of pride.
"Mr. Cheng." Ye Yanxing nodded at him.
"Whose family do you think you are? Just call me Cheng Yu." Cheng Yu sat down opposite them with a smile.
"Our surname is Fu." Ye Yanxing also spoke with a smile.
Fu Qianrun glanced at Ye Yanxing.
"Two Master Fu."
"Ah."
The old farmer put two bowls of water in front of them and said, "Drink."
"Thank you, uncle." Ye Yanxing thanked him again, then picked up a bowl and gave it to Fu Qianrun first, "Ruyu, quench your thirst."
"Yeah." Fu Qianrun took the bowl from his hand, drank a few sips slowly, and put it down.
Seeing that he had really had enough, Ye Yanxing drank up the rest.
Cheng Yu on the opposite side saw this and blinked. There was something wrong with these two people.
After Ye Yanxing finished two bowls of water, he casually wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, looking very casual and unrestrained.
The old farmer felt sorry for him when he saw him wasting such good clothes.
Instead, Cheng Yu smiled and took the initiative to chat with Ye Yanxing.
"Are you good at arithmetic?" Ye Yanxing was surprised.
"It can't be considered as an expertise, it's just a hobby. People of our status can actually not get access to much arithmetic." Cheng Yu's face was full of regret.
Ye Yanxing nodded.
The few of them chatted for a while, of course, it was mainly Ye Yanxing and Cheng Yu who were chatting.
"Sorry for disturbing you today. We should go back." When the sun was about to set, Ye Yanxing and Fu Qianrun said goodbye.
"Okay, I won't keep you for dinner. You have all seen the situation. We really have no food left." Cheng Yu said frankly.
"Next time we meet, I'll treat you to a meal." Ye Yanxing said with a smile.
"That's great." Cheng Yu agreed.
