I traveled through the Cretaceous period and farmed with the ever-changing dog egg.

Chapter 132 Taking Zheng Ge's Children to the Fields

"A secret!!" It's impossible to achieve under the current conditions, but Lin Chaoyan has a cheat code!

"Please pay close attention to the growth of the rice seedlings! The early rice can be transplanted next month. Rice seedlings raised in the nursery will have a better survival rate and a higher yield. After transplanting the mid-season and late-season rice seedlings, you should also start raising seedlings..." The transplanting time for early rice is usually in March or April each year, the transplanting time for mid-season rice is in mid-May each year, and the transplanting time for late-season rice is usually in late July each year. Moreover, the transplanting time varies in different regions.

Lin Chaoyan divided the land into three parts, representing morning, noon, and evening.

The Grand Minister of Agriculture was speechless about the secret, but no matter how he pressed her for answers, tried to morally blackmail her, or tried to flatter her, Lin Chaoyan remained unmoved.

"Xu'er, you and your younger siblings pick up your hoes and join in. This land will be your Boy Scouts' experimental field from now on." A prince who understands the suffering of the people is a good heir.

“Aunt, we are princesses and princes, why are we doing such vulgar things?” The others echoed, expressing that they, as sons of the King of Qin, should not be doing manual labor in the fields…

"Vulgar? Then you won't be eating from now on. If you're willing, come with me now; if not, you can always go back home. Goodbye..." Your father has worked in the fields, so why are you so noble?

"Xu'er, do you want to go back?" Lin Chaoyan still hoped that the child would stay.

The child was so frightened that he quickly picked up the hoe from the ground, saying, "I won't go back."

Not knowing what the taboo was, they wanted to leave but dared not, and in the end, they reluctantly picked up the hoe.

"Since you're not leaving, then you have to get down on the ground. Even if your father came today, he'd still have to get down." Go ahead and complain if you dare! She wasn't afraid.

"Arranged in two rows..."

More than twenty...they really have a lot of children...

"Stand at attention... Look right... Count off from right to left..." Lin Chaoyan stared at each child with a serious expression, holding a hoe.

"One, two, three, four, five, six... twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight"—what a massive family! Which dynasty could possibly produce one like him?

"The people are of paramount importance, the ruler is of lesser importance; water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. The consequence of failing to do so is self-destruction..." The people are the most powerful; they are the ones who conquered the country, but it is the noble families who ascended to the throne.

Besides Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang...

"Unity is strength..." Lin Chaoyan said, and everyone else echoed her sentiment.

"Unity is strength..."

"Unity is strength..."

"Unity is strength..."

"This power is iron..."

"This power is iron..."

"This power is steel..."

"This power is steel..."

"Harder than iron, stronger than steel..."

The song "Unity is Strength" echoed through the fields, and others were also inspired. A hundred or so people sang together, their loud voices filling the air.

After a day of exhaustion, the children were completely worn out; one of the babies even buried his face in his bowl while eating.

Seeing this, Lin Chaoyan felt guilty. "Take your little master back quickly!" It would be best if you never came again... Taking care of your rival's child... that's really something.

"Mother, let's go back too!" He is becoming more and more like the historical Fusu, acting like a little old man despite his young age.

"Xu'er, go back first. Mother will go back on her own later." Go back? She didn't want to go back. Ying Zheng was too busy with you lately to care about her. If she didn't have time to be carefree now, when would she?

Little Fusu gazed at Lin Chaoyan with worried eyes, remaining silent for a moment before speaking. "Then Mother, please remember to return to the palace early, otherwise Father will be angry..."

…Threatening me? I'm afraid of him? He's counting on me to embark on this unknown journey. Even for his own future, he wouldn't want me to die…

"Hehehe!! Xu'er is getting cuter and cuter! Mother will go back as soon as she finishes what she's doing..." Just kidding, go back my foot...

"Your son takes his leave..." He exuded the air of a Confucian scholar. Ying Zheng, who followed Legalism, had chosen a Confucian teacher for his eldest son...

"Take it easy and be careful..." She watched the carriage leave, waving to it until it disappeared.

Before the marriage, she planned to stay in this village and not go back, to give herself some private space to think carefully about the future.

Inside the room, the charcoal in the stove crackled, flames licking the iron walls and casting a warm glow. The air was filled with the aroma of tea, along with the unique fragrance of roasted sweet potatoes, chestnuts, sausages, and other ingredients.

Lin Chaoyan held a steaming cup of tea in her hands, fully enjoying this hard-won private space.

"This is what life is all about..." She had already planned out her comfortable life for every day of the future.

Tomorrow, I'll continue sunbathing, gathering around the stove to brew tea and add fried chicken, and casually toss the seedlings in the space.

The day after tomorrow, we'll have steamed fish head with chopped chili and shredded chicken...

"You actually dared to leave him?" Wang Sheng's voice rang out untimely while Lin Chaoyan was enjoying her meal.

"You wouldn't understand! I call this 'absence makes the heart grow fonder'..." She picked up the sizzling, oily sausage and handed it to Wang Sheng.

"Do you want some?" If not, I'll eat it myself. It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, bursting with juice in every bite.

He accepted the sausage Lin Chaoyan offered, feeling somewhat flattered. He then sat down beside her…

"Oh...it's so hot..." The moment she bit through the sausage casing, the oil immediately splattered onto her face.

"Are you alright?" Wang Sheng quickly put down the sausage in his hand and reached out to check on Lin Chaoyan's condition with a concerned look.

Seeing her face being gently cradled in his hands, Lin Chaoyan looked away and then pulled her face away from Wang Sheng's grasp.

"I'm fine..."

His hand hovered in the air for a moment before he withdrew it, unsure whether he was just imagining things or genuinely serious. Wang Sheng always felt that the person he loved also had feelings for him.

The only sounds in the room were the two people sharing food.

She took the roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes out of the oven, giving the sweet potatoes to Wang Sheng and keeping the potatoes for herself. They were still piping hot when she peeled them, dipped them in chili powder, and grimaced from the burn, but a sweet fragrance filled her heart.

She stayed up until about ten o'clock, chased away the restless spirits, and then went into bed and fell into a sweet sleep.

Even though it was springtime, the night was still chilly. Ying Zheng sat on the bed, looking at the empty space with an expressionless face, but his eyes darkened.

The people kneeling on the ground lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"Where is she?" His voice was low and cold, as if he was suppressing something.

"Your Majesty, please forgive us. The young lady says she wants to stay at the estate for a while to relax and won't return to the palace for the time being." The couple were pulling at each other's feet, trying to appease the lowly.

"Tomorrow, I will issue an order that no matter how much she causes trouble during the day, she must return to the palace and stay there tonight." After saying this, he realized that his words were too harsh and might have a negative effect, so he quickly added a sentence.

“Tell Ayan properly that I am so busy with state affairs that I can’t eat or sleep well, and I’m getting haggard. I haven’t slept all night because of her…” Ying Zheng knew very well that a hard approach wouldn’t work and that Lin Chaoyan was more responsive to gentle persuasion than force.

"promise……"

What can they say? They can only accept their fate! They'll be reborn as serfs in their next life and sing songs of triumph.

With no one tormenting her, Lin Chaoyan slept soundly, as if surrounded by pink bubbles. She was truly terrified of being disturbed that night, and the result of abstaining from women for months was her bad luck.

Her show of weakness and pleading only excited him, leading to an even more intense clash.

Inside the Xianyang Palace, he tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He kept unconsciously reaching for the spot beside him. The empty space in his arms made Ying Zheng feel empty, lonely, cold, and very uncomfortable…

He went to court with dark circles under his eyes, while Lin Chaoyan, feeling refreshed, prepared to try making breadcrumbs using the homemade oven in her spatial storage.

First, slice the steamed buns, then dice them. Pour the diced buns into a pan and stir-fry constantly over low heat. Be sure to use low heat to avoid burning. If you have an oven, place the diced buns on the middle rack and bake at 150 degrees Celsius (300 degrees Fahrenheit) for 10 minutes. If you have a microwave, place the diced buns in the microwave and bake on high for one minute, then flip them over and bake for another 50 seconds.

Fry the diced steamed bread until crispy, then remove from the pan and let cool. Place it in a plastic bag and crush it with a rolling pin, then grind it into powder. Sift the powder into a dish; the breadcrumbs are now ready…

Lin Chaoyan started by kneading and mixing the dough to make steamed buns. The flour was a white expanse, like a thick layer of snow. She reached in and stirred it; it was warm and soft.

She gradually poured warm water into the flour, stirring constantly with her hands, trying her best to mix the water and flour evenly... Then she would add flour if there was too much water, and add water if there was too much flour...

I originally planned to make a few to try, but now it's already a huge pot before it's even fermented. I estimate it won't be able to finish steaming it all in less than a day after fermentation.

"Does this mean I'm good for nothing and can't finish anything I eat?" She couldn't even stand herself anymore. The steamed buns from the Three Kingdoms era could only be consumed internally.

Her hands were covered in wet flour, which she couldn't get off. She started kneading the dough, making sure it was elastic, kneading it repeatedly. Worried about not being able to finish the steamed buns, Lin Chaoyan decided to take some out and make ramen.

After countless failures, being flung away, and getting stuck to herself... she still chose to honestly ferment and steam the buns...
