The process of buying the land was surprisingly smooth, and some villagers even offered to sell the good land.

But Mo Jingcheng just refused indifferently, and still bought the wasteland in the village for reclamation.With some previous experience, the field this time was quickly cultivated by Mo Jingcheng into a good field, and then the flower seeds he brought were planted.

The villagers were secretly envious, but they had no choice but to watch Mo Jingcheng hire Uncle Xu and the others to work together, and then get a silver tael that could match them for several months.

Chen Pingqun didn't want to come to help. If he came, he would be gossiped by the villagers, saying that he was a follower, but Xu Yuanqi gave him a hard lesson.

He still remembered that Mo Jingcheng had saved his life, so he felt that if the other party had something to do, he should also help him.

"Let's walk straight and stand straight! You don't care what gossip those people say! Besides, why should we depend on other people's faces in our life?"

When Xu Yuanqi said this, there happened to be a talkative villager passing by, so Xu Yuanqi deliberately amplified his words.On the surface, it was for Chen Pingqun to listen to, but in fact, it was used to scold those dirty-mouthed people who said grapes were sour when they couldn't eat grapes.

Sure enough, someone listened and scolded him with a black face: "You child, who are you scolding!"

Xu Yuanqi gave them a blank look, "I'll scold whoever answers!"

The man was so angry that he was about to roll up his sleeves and start his hands.But Xu Yuanqi had no choice but to be guarded by the tall and strong Chen Pingqun, who was also the son of the village head, so naturally he couldn't help him.

Seeing that he couldn't beat him, the man made a guilty "hum", turned around and ran away in despair, wishing to throw away the young man who was still cursing behind him.

Stopping the boy who was still about to rush forward, Chen Pingqun helplessly brushed his hair, then picked up the scimitar and calmly went to cut the piece of wood lying on the side.

Recently Xu Yuanqi fell in love with small wooden gadgets, and he can also make them, so he occasionally made a few for him to play with.

Juvenile mind, love to play is normal.

The boy who had just finished cursing also took a breath at this time, calmed down, and turned to look at Chen Pingqun with a straight face.I saw Chen Pingqun with a stiff face and silent, his brows were tightly frowned, and he pursed his lips and used the scimitar in his hand to cut the wood fiercely, as if he was sulking.

The awe-inspiring young man was immediately discouraged.

In fact, whether Chen Pingqun will help Mo Jingcheng or not, he can't decide at all.He is neither Chen Pingqun's brother, nor is he destined to be a lifelong partner.

But he just couldn't understand Chen Pingqun's way of always caring about other people's eyes. He lived his own life, so why should he care about other people's eyes?

Thinking of this, a feeling of sullenness surged into his heart again, and he sat on the swing with his cheeks puffed out, holding onto the rope of the swing and shaking it.

It has been a long time since spring, and the deep mountains are green again, and there are new shoots everywhere, which look very lively.Even the tree that the swing was tethered to had sprouted quite a few buds.

The cool wind blew gently, shaking the small buds that had just emerged on the tree.The sunlight casts down from between the buds, forming mottled dots.

Xu Yuanqi closed his eyes and looked up, those dots landed on his face with the warmth of the sun.

Suddenly, a pair of hands with a fresh wood smell covered his eyes.

"Don't look at the sun like that, your eyes will hurt." Chen Pingqun said in a muffled voice.

Standing behind the boy, he could smell the clean breath of the boy.He didn't know whether it was the tree or the surrounding vegetable fields, but he smelled the faint smell of young leaves.

Very light and light, it is the aroma of spring.

Xu Yuanqi ignored him, but he didn't take his hand away, and even blinked his eyes.

Feeling the gentle flapping of the eyelashes in the palm of his hand, Chen Pingqun immediately retracted his hands as if they were scalded, his wheat-colored face flushed slightly.

"What are you doing here? Didn't you ignore me?" Xu Yuanqi didn't notice his strangeness, thinking that he hated to touch his retracted hand, so his chest felt oppressed again.

The man standing behind him didn't respond.

After a long silence, a wooden rabbit slowly passed over his head and stopped in front of him.

Xu Yuanqi opened his eyes wide.

The woodcarved rabbit didn't have any charm like the ones in the town. Instead, it opened a pair of big talking eyes, as if blinking at him.The long ears also drooped down to the bottom of the body.

Seeing that the rabbit was so cute, Xu Yuanqi subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it.The rabbit naturally fell into the palm of his hand.

As soon as he touched his palm, Xu Yuanqi couldn't help exclaiming: "Brother Pingqun, this rabbit is really slippery!"

Although it was carved with the usual rough wood, Chen Pingqun was able to carve the rabbit without any harsh edges and corners, and it was so smooth that it could shine brightly under the sun.

Seeing that the boy was no longer sullen, Chen Pingqun smiled and said nothing.

In fact, not only this rabbit, but even other gadgets, even a ball, as long as it is engraved for Xu Yuanqi, Chen Pingqun will polish it patiently.It is not difficult to have such good craftsmanship on the left and right.

It's just that in order to support my mother and myself on weekdays, I seldom do these things.

Facing the sun, the boy's eyes shone slightly.

"Thank you, Brother Pingqun."

Just meeting those clean and bright eyes, Chen Pingqun was slightly taken aback, and quickly turned around to hide his emotions.

"what happened?"

"...Go help Mo Jingcheng."

Hearing this, Xu Yuanqi showed a big smile.

"Ok!"

*

Avoiding the crowd, Mo Jingcheng was about to sprinkle the nutrient solution on the flower seeds when he heard a shout from afar.

The newly purchased ten-acre barren land is in the back mountain, far away from the old houses of Mo Jingcheng and Fang Yun. Due to the remoteness of the terrain, few people pass by, so the nutrient solution can be used without people's eyes.

It is also for this reason that I am willing to buy the barren land here.

"The shopkeeper—"

Worried about revealing his identity, Mo Jingcheng hurriedly put the nutrient solution into the database, and straightened up to look at the person.

Because it was designed by the researcher to have superior senses, he could see who was coming from a distance.It was a servant in the Rubik's Cube Pavilion. He seemed to be in a hurry, and his tied-up hair looked messy. He seemed to be in a hurry.

What puzzled him was how the boy came here.

According to the current Weishi time, it is the time when the business is booming, and besides he and Fang Yun are not here, Mofangxuan should be very busy.

But seeing the anxious look on the boy's face, Mo Jingcheng put down the hoe in his hand and walked up because there was something urgent.

When the boy ran up to him, he was out of breath and was speaking intermittently. It took him a while to connect what he wanted to say.

"Shopkeeper, Master Shi is waiting for you in Mofangxuan, and he said that he wants to make you the magistrate!"

County magistrate?

Mo Jingcheng secretly searched for the official position of the county magistrate in this world in his intellectual mind.

After a while, Zhinao gave the answer.It turned out that the county magistrate was the deputy of the magistrate, in charge of food, horses and taxation of the whole city. Generally, he was directly appointed by the imperial court, and in some places was selected by the magistrate, which shows that he has a higher status.

But what he didn't understand was that the general county magistrate was held by Juren or Jinshi, but he didn't have these titles. Why was he suddenly appointed as county magistrate?

"Is Miracle Doctor Gu here?" Mo Jingcheng asked.

Asking this question made the boy stunned for a while, and asked in confusion: "Shopkeeper, how do you know that Miracle Doctor Gu is here? Before Master Shi came, Miracle Physician Gu went to the restaurant to eat pastries."

Mo Jingcheng was thinking about something with a sullen face.

Seeing that Mo Jingcheng's face didn't change, the servant was also a little confused, "Didn't the miracle doctor say that he brought Mr. Master to the restaurant? If the two came together, maybe it's nothing strange?"

This is true, but the behavior of those two people chatting with Yu Nian really made people suspicious. From that look, it seemed that they already knew that Yu Nian was the prince.

Besides, the positions they sat that night also showed their identities.The seat where Yu Nian was sitting was facing the gate, and it was a position of honor. It is impossible for the two old gentlemen to let a young man occupy that seat without knowing this.

After that night, Yu Nian never appeared again, but what followed was that he was appointed as the county magistrate, which is indeed a bit strange.

But no matter what, since they want to hide it, they will definitely hide it to the end, and they will not take the initiative to reveal the truth because of his doubts.

That being the case, it would be better to have a smooth ride.

"Understood, I will go back when you are."

Hearing this hour, the boy wondered if he heard it wrong, "You hour?"

It's only Shenshi now, and it's almost an hour away from Youshi. No one is as emotional as his shopkeeper, who has no emotion when he hears that he is about to become an official.

Thinking of this, the boy secretly felt dissatisfied with Yan Dao.

However, Mo Jingcheng understood the boy's emotions behind his back, and glanced at him, "Leave as soon as you say, do as you say, is it so easy for others to control?"

Even a parent official like Shi Yandao, he can't be sure that he will be credible in the future.As long as you enter the official career, there is no way out.So from the very beginning, you can't hand over your dominance to the other party.

If he was alone, he would not be afraid, and would just wave his sleeves left and right, and even the imperial court could do nothing to him.But he has Rainbow Dash, and Rainbow Dash is still waiting for him at home.

He needs to be careful not to make any mistakes.

In this way, the servant nodded half-understood, although he still felt that if he entered the official career, he would enjoy the blessings of the world, and he really didn't know what his shopkeeper was worried about.

"The shopkeeper, I'll go back and report a letter, saying that you won't be back until next hour."

Mo Jingcheng nodded, "Just say I'm still farming."

The boy responded cleverly, turned around and ran away along the same path.

As soon as he got the news, he rushed over, and was so excited that he forgot to hire a donkey cart. After all, it was their shopkeeper who was going to be an official, and the whole restaurant was proud of one person becoming an official.

You know, the county magistrate is an official that no one else can dream of!

Besides, since Master Shi came here in person, it is likely to be settled, unless it is the shopkeeper who does not want to be an official.But who would be stupid enough to refuse the office?

Thinking of this, the boy also quickened his pace, and hurried back to report a letter.

On the other hand, Mo Jingcheng was not so excited, he was a little apprehensive, and even had unspeakable uneasiness in his heart.

As for what he was worried about, he couldn't tell.

At this moment, Fang Yunnuo's voice came from not far away.

"Husband—come and taste my new mugwort cake!"

As soon as the words were finished, Fang Yun ran towards him facing the setting sun, with starlight shining in his clear and clean eyes.

"Ai Cao Cake..."

Suddenly he had an answer.
