The next day, Jiang Mingyue got up early. She didn't want to wake up the man, but as soon as she moved, Xie Yuan woke up.

Jiang Mingyue kissed his thin lips gently and said warmly: "It's still early, you can sleep a little longer."

"I'm not going to sleep anymore. I'll see you off."

Two quarters of an hour later, Xie Yuan watched his wife and children's carriage go away before returning home.

At two o'clock in the morning, Jiang Mingyue had returned to Wanping County.

In Zaolin Hutong, Jiang Minghong was boxing in the courtyard. He heard the knock on the door immediately. When he saw his sister walking in, he was a little surprised and said: "Sister, why are you back so early?"

"I need to return to the village early and tell the tribe to postpone the summer harvest until your brother-in-law and others arrive."

"I told the old patriarch yesterday that if my brother-in-law and the others don't come back, the villagers won't be able to harvest in the summer."

Jiang Mingyue was very happy when she heard this. Her brother had thought so carefully.

"In this case, I don't have to rush back in a hurry."

"Sister, haven't you eaten yet?" Jiang Minghong asked.

Jiang Mingyue shook her head gently.

"That's right, let's have breakfast together."

Jiang Minghong called Yu Gen and gave him a few words. After Yu Gen went out, he led his sister to the main hall with grapes and dumplings in his arms and said: "A steamed stuffed bun shop has just opened in the county. It uses the secret recipe of the palace. It’s very delicious. My sister will try it soon.”

Jiang Mingyue said 'hmm': "Your brother-in-law told me to ask you to go to the Yamen on his behalf..."

Before Jiang Mingyue finished speaking, she heard her brother say: "But you want me to see Magistrate Shen?"

Jiang Mingyue was a little surprised and asked, "Did you guess it?"

"Yesterday, after the news came back from Apple, I told Master immediately. Master also suggested that I go see Magistrate Shen."

This is like having an old person in a family and having a treasure.

"Are you visible?"

"Not yet, that's why I'm still in Wanping and haven't returned to the village. I want to ask my sister for permission before I decide whether to go see her or not."

My brother didn't get Xie Yuan's approval, so he couldn't make up his mind?

Jiang Mingyue held his hand and said softly: "Minghong, you are my brother, and now you are also Xie Yuan's brother. My family doesn't have to be so open-minded."

Jiang Minghong smiled when he heard this.

"I understand. Then when I see Magistrate Shen later, how about we go back to the village together?"

Jiang Mingyue nodded, and then Yu Gen walked in with some big buns.

"So big!" Jiang Mingyue said in surprise, a bun was as big as the mouth of a bowl.

"It's expensive too!" Yu Gen said angrily.

Yo! Jiang Mingyue heard him complain for the first time and asked curiously.

"How much a piece?"

"Five articles!"

"It's a little expensive indeed."

Jiang Mingyue took out three buns and gave the rest to him.

"You and Xiaoxing will share a share."

"Thank you, Madam."

Seeing Yu Gen walking out happily, Jiang Mingyue leaned in front of her younger brother and whispered, "Yu Gen is more thoughtful now."

Jiang Minghong said 'hmm'.

After the two siblings had a simple breakfast, Jiang Mingyue sent her brother to the door. After watching him go away, she called Shiliu to him and asked about her brother, cousin, and Qi Yongsi.

Through Shiliu's narration, Jiang Mingyue learned that Qi Yongsi rarely comes back now. Since he became a disciple of Luan Yi, he has been running between private schools and medicine shops. In the end, in order to learn medical skills from Luan Yi, he simply lived in a medicine shop.

Shen Shu followed Lin Hanshan back to Linjia Village yesterday, saying that he was going to help his sister and brother-in-law with the summer harvest and would not return until tomorrow.

My brother's life these days is no different from before. He spends most of the day in private school and only comes back in the evening. Although there is an endless stream of people who post messages for him, he refuses all the ones he can. His private life is simple and extremely clean. .

After understanding the situation of the three of them, Jiang Mingyue saw that her brother was back, so she stood up and asked, "Have you seen Magistrate Shen?"

Jiang Minghong nodded.

"County Magistrate Shen responded quickly. I just said a few words and he understood."

As expected, none of these people who work for the government are simple.

"Then let's leave quickly!"

When the two siblings were leaving the city with grapes and dumplings, Jiang Mingyue saw a straw hat seller at the city gate and shouted: "Brother!"

Jiang Minghong rode up to the carriage.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

"Buy some straw hats, your brother-in-law might be able to use them."

"it is good!"

It was the summer harvest, and straw hats were the most commonly used items. Jiang Minghong bought ten of them for two cents each. The old man saw that he had bought too much, so he charged one cent less.

Jiang Mingyue saw that her brother had brought back so many straw hats, but she didn't say anything. Even if Xie Yuan and the others didn't use them, they could still be given to the tribe.

Just as the two siblings were leaving the city, Xie Yuan, Song Ming, and Song Ren quietly left Kyoto at the same time. What was slightly different from last time was that there was no longer Shen Ge Lao and Tao Shangshu in the team, and there was one more Ryan.

The last time he left the palace, Song Ming was in a good mood. They wasted a lot of time walking around. This time Song Ming didn't make any more stops, so they arrived at Wanping County at three o'clock.

After leaving Wanping City through the city gate, Song Ming slowed down. Although it was hot, the wheat fields on both sides of the road were full of people. The men were cutting the wheat quickly with sickles in their hands, and the women were following behind, tying them up and going to various places. Carts, carts, donkey carts, and ox carts were used to transport the grain, and the children followed behind with baskets to pick up the wheat.

Although everyone was sweating profusely, Song Ming and his party could all see that they were very happy. This was the joy of a good harvest.

Song Ming, who was in a good mood, turned to look at Song Ren and the others and said, "Tell me, what did you think of when you saw this scene?"

Xie Yuan did not take the lead. Jiang Shangshu and others spoke first with a very humble attitude.

After several people gave in, Song Ren spoke first, followed by Jiang Shangshu and others. They all said the same thing, praising Song Ming through the harvest.

The difference is that Song Ren and Jiang Shangshu are better at talking and what they say is the most pleasant. Although Song Ming did not praise them, you can tell from his expression that he is very useful.

After a while, Song Ming saw that everyone had finished speaking, but Xie Yuan never asked, "Where are you, Zijing?"

"Wei Chen and several adults have slightly different views."

"Oh?"

"tell me the story!"

"What Weichen saw is our great Chu, which can be used for generations to come."

One sentence raised the entire situation to a very high level. Song Ren and Jiang Shangshu turned to look at Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan's words undoubtedly scratched Song Ming's itch. His interest, which was only 20%, suddenly turned into 60%.

"What method?"

"No matter what dynasty it is, the requirements of the common people are the simplest. All they ask for is food and clothing. As long as they have food to eat and clothes to wear, they will naturally support you and will not have other thoughts. This is our great Chu. A method that lasts for generations to come.”

Song Ming narrowed his eyes slightly and turned to look at the people working in the wheat fields.
