Get the resurrection scroll, and eat melons and meat after entering the book

Wu Qing originally thought that once she returned to the palace that day, she would not be able to come out again until the fifth day of October, so she postponed all her affairs to the fifth day. However, she did not expect that early the next morning, Helian Han asked her again if she wanted to leave the palace.

Wu Qing was naturally happy. After having breakfast, she thought about where to go after leaving the palace today. She decided to go to the farm. Then she remembered that the people at the farm didn't know her, so it was not convenient to go in and out.

When Helian Han heard Wu Qing talk about this, he said, "Xiao Luzi, go out of the palace and take Miss Wu to the farm."

Wu Qing received a badge that allowed her to go out of the palace on business that day, and headed straight to the farm in the south of the city with He Cui and Xiao Luzi.

When Zhuangzi's gatekeeper saw that it was the person who had been here two days ago, he thought that the sign clearly said that one could only leave the palace when the fifth or tenth day came, so why did he come again today?

Xiao Luzi lifted the carriage curtain and said to the outside, "Brother Yao Wu is here. The master asked me to bring a message. This farm and all its inhabitants have been given to Miss Wu. The contract has not yet been signed, but you all just have to obey her."

The gatekeeper was confused, but he still bowed to Wu Qing and said, "Greetings to the lady, uh, greetings to the new...ah! Greetings to the new mistress."

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he didn't know what to call them.

Wu Qing wanted to roll her eyes after hearing this. A new mistress, so there must be an old mistress! Why does it sound so unpleasant?

I wanted to smile at this person, but I couldn't force a smile.

It was only when Xiao Luzi saw Wu Qing's gloomy face that he realized what was wrong with what he said, and said to Yao Wu, "Fifth Brother, do you think this is appropriate?"

Yao Wu also felt that what he said just now was wrong, and raised his hand to slap his mouth, "Look at my stupid mouth, my master is magnanimous and lenient with me this time, there won't be a next time."

He quickly changed the subject and said to Xiao Luzi, "We still need to inform the village head about this matter. Please trouble the eunuch to make a trip."

Xiao Luzi answered straightforwardly, "Of course I'll tell them. I'll take Miss Wu and leave first."

As the carriage started moving, Xiao Luzi said hurriedly, "Young lady, don't bother with him. Yao Wu is always talking big but thinking behind the scenes. The guy chasing him isn't much smarter either, he's as dumb as a torn waistband..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Qing laughed out loud, "I've never heard you talk so much in the palace."

Xiao Luzi chuckled, "With the dark face of our Ninth Prince, I dare not show off in front of him. If I say one more word, I'm afraid I'll be thrown into the Jingtong Army."

Xiao Luzi asked the driver to drive the carriage to the courtyard of Feng Shoutian's family. Wu Qing and He Cui got off the carriage. He said, "Miss, you are busy here. I will go and get the village head to see you."

There was no rush this time. Wu Qing went to the yard and said to Shoutian's wife, "Go find Feng Shoutian. I have something to tell him."

No one knew what she said to her eldest son, but the little boy ran out of the yard.

I still can't communicate well with Morita's wife in the same language. I have to gesture and then speak to make her understand me. It's so tiring.

Wu Qing was free anyway, so she looked at the eldest daughter of the Feng family who was busy boiling water and preparing vegetables. She asked, "What's your name? How old are you?"

"My name is Feng Daduo, and I'm ten years old." The little girl answered readily and generously, not afraid of anyone at all.

Wu Qing nodded, then stretched her head to look at the smaller one over there, "How old is your sister?"

"Xiaoduo is two years old, and she can talk now." Daduo said as she led Xiaoduo over. "Xiaoduo, come and play with me, my lord. Let's go make you something to eat."

Wu Qing was surprised. The child was taller than the stove, but how could he possibly swing a large ladle to cook? With those thin arms and legs, "Can you cook?"

Da Duo nodded, "Yes, when our mother gave birth to us..."

Wu Qing couldn't help laughing. What do you mean by "our mother"? This can't be shared!

Daduo didn't notice anything unusual and continued to say, "It was more than two years ago that we knew how to do it." His eyes were firm, he must know how to do it!

Wu Qing didn't want to interrupt, so she glanced at He Cui with a smile and asked, "What else can you do?"

"We know everything our mother can do. She takes us with her wherever she does, such as stewing sauce, cutting radishes, drying sauce, and drying vegetables... I won't say more. We have to cook for Xiaoduo. She gets hungry quickly and will need to eat again soon." Daduo turned and went to the kitchen.

Wu Qing stared at Da Duo and couldn't pull her off. What a versatile person! Don't underestimate a small person, there is nothing he can't do.

Just when I was wondering whether using Daduo to work was considered employing child labor, Feng Shoutian came back.

As soon as the man entered the courtyard, he bowed and asked, "Does your Excellency have any instructions?"

Wu Qing immediately turned serious. "Didn't I tell you last time to teach your wife to speak Chinese? What's going on? I don't see any progress at all."

Feng Shoutian immediately turned bitter. "Your Excellency, you are wronging me. I have taught her, but my wife—how should I put it, she doesn't take it to heart. You say she is stupid, she is really good at work, but she just can't understand Chinese. In fact, I have been teaching her for many years, but she just doesn't understand it."

Feng Shoutian looked so sad. Wu Qing didn't think he was lying, so she didn't want to make things difficult for him.

But what if she just can't be taught, and has trouble communicating with others, assigning things to her, and providing feedback later? What should I do?

He Cui asked quietly, "Sister, do you have any instructions for Shoutian's wife to learn Chinese?"

Wu Qing nodded, "The things we make in the future will become more and more refined. I'm afraid that this kind of communication won't be clear. It seems like we're in a state of confusion now..." Her eyes fell on Daduo who was busy in the kitchen, and then turned back to look at the wife who was guarding the field.

He Cui also saw this and asked, "Sister, do you want to take this girl with you? After all, it's not convenient for us to leave the palace. There is a village head on this farm. How about just teaching Da Duo how to cook?"

Wu Qing was still hesitant, "Is it too small?"

He Cui: "It's not too much of a difference. Didn't we also enter the palace as errand boys when we were twelve? Haven't we learned enough lessons?"

Entered the palace at the age of twelve? Wu Qing really didn't know. No wonder they all looked like they hadn't grown up yet. They really hadn't grown up yet!

Feng Shoutian looked at the nobleman and the other girl who had been looking at him, which frightened him. "This... nobleman, nobleman, if you need anything, just use me. You can't, you can't..."

He wanted to say that he would not sell children, but he couldn't say it out loud. He was hired by someone, so how could he have the nerve to say that he would not sell children as slaves?

Wu Qing looked at Feng Shoutian, whose face turned red with anxiety, and asked, "What's going on? Your wife can't convey messages clearly, so I want to use your daughter-in-law to pass on a message. Do you think it's okay?"

"What?!" Feng Shoutian thought he had misheard. Wasn't it about selling oneself into slavery? Was it about helping manage things? "Of course, of course not. It's a blessing to be able to work for a noble man. I'm just afraid that the child is too young to handle the work."

Wu Qing thought of something more important, "Can you read?"

Feng Shoutian quickly replied, "Yes, I do. Someone taught me how to do it specifically when I was at the hunting grounds. I was taught specifically to avoid making mistakes."

Wu Qing didn't want to bother thinking about how well this person could recognize characters, so she asked directly, "Is it possible that he could understand the letter?"

"Yes," Feng Shoutian nodded. "The village head often gives us written instructions, and I can understand them."

"That's good. When I leave later, come with me to buy a book on how to recognize characters. You can teach Daduo first. With the written part, take your time. Start by recognizing some characters so you can understand what's written on the letters that arrive..." At this point, Wu Qing suddenly thought, "Since there are people teaching characters at the hunting garden, aren't there any here?" So she asked, "Is there anyone teaching characters at Zhuangzi?"

Feng Shoutian shook his head. "I don't know. How about I ask you?"

As they were talking, they heard the sound of a carriage outside the yard. It turned out to be Xiao Luzi and the head of the village coming over.

As soon as the head of the village entered the yard, he knelt down and saluted Wu Qing. "I just heard from Eunuch Lu that from now on this yard will be under the control of Miss Wu. I am Yao Da, the head of this village, and I have come to pay my respects to the master."

Wu Qing waved her hand, "Yao Da, please get up. I have something to ask you."

Yao Da stood up and said, "Master, ask."

Wu Qing asked, "Is there anyone here who can teach people how to read?"

Yao Da shook his head. "There's no special teacher, but there's a poor scholar living in this village who works as an accountant and does some writing and painting to make a living."

Wu Qing was delighted when she heard this. How could Xiucai's education level be lower than that of a modern high school student? "That's great! Where's Xiucai? Can you find an empty house and let him open a school?"

Yao Da nodded, "Yes, that's fine, but I don't know who to teach."
