Bringing the courtyard through [delicate] lady killed like crazy

Chapter 249 Zhuangzi's Great Harvest

As the sun sets, a layer of light pink scatters down from the sky, casting a different kind of warmth on the yard.

The Lu family set up dinner on the open space in the yard. After dinner, Lu Lin and Lu Lan took Li Jiaojiao aside to ask about the trip to Yuncheng. Lu Xiao and Chen Ruolan beside her also looked at her with concern.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that Yuncheng is suffering from drought and plague. Are you okay?" Children grow fast, and perhaps because of practicing martial arts, little Lu Lan has grown taller.

Li Jiaojiao reached out and scratched the little girl's nose, "Didn't the second sister-in-law come back safely?"

"But, sister-in-law, you have lost weight. Did you suffer a lot there?" The little girl frowned, and Lu Lin beside her also had a serious expression.

Li Jiaojiao looked at Lu Xiao and Chen Ruolan beside her. The worried expressions on their faces were so obvious that they didn't show any joy at all.

In the eyes of everyone, she was a hero who saved Yuncheng. When she returned to the court, she was honored as a princess. She was the most popular person at the time and had a bright future.

What they saw was her usefulness to everyone in the future, her medical skills, her food seeds, the many different things she brought, and the value of her existence.

But in the hearts of her family, they only care about whether she is okay, whether she is injured, whether she has suffered a lot, and whether she is tired. Every step she takes is not easy.

Li Jiaojiao turned around and patted Chen Ruolan's hand, which had been holding hers, and said crisply, "I'm fine. Lu Ling has been with me the whole time. You don't have to worry. I'm back safe and sound. I was even given the title of Princess, and the Emperor gave me many good things."

"As for Lu Ling, he lives in the palace now, so it may not be convenient for him to come out, but with the Empress Chen protecting him, there will be no problem."

"You just need to take care of yourselves and don't worry about the rest. As long as the manor is fine and everything is normal, it means that the two of us are fine too. There's no problem."

Li Jiaojiao was afraid that the pregnant Chen Ruolan would have wild thoughts, so she tried to calm her mind by speaking in a calming manner and did not mention a single word about the assassination and ambush on the road.

Chen Ruolan nodded repeatedly after hearing this, her eyes sparkling with tears, "Okay, okay, we will take good care of ourselves, and you should also be careful when you are out there. As long as we are safe, everything will be fine."

Chen Ruolan originally had a cheerful personality, but after all, she had been through some things, and coupled with her pregnancy, her mood fluctuated greatly.

Li Jiaojiao comforted Chen Ruolan, distributed the gifts she brought for her family to everyone, and promised to stay at the farm for a while before leaving the Lu family's yard.

After leaving the yard, Li Jiaojiao did not return to her own yard.

He followed the path in front of the Lu family's door and walked around the farm, with Ali and the little wolf following on his left and right.

The wheat and rice in the front yard have matured. The golden ears of wheat and rice are full, and the drooping ears bend the dry stalks.

There are also planted vegetables. Unlike the vegetables in the palace which are all shipped back from Yuncheng, the vegetables on the farm have all been directly grown by Li Jiaojiao.

In addition, the water used for watering later was all well water containing spiritual spring water, so the growth of vegetables was very gratifying.

She had tasted the vegetables at the Lu family's dinner table. Although it was not as good as the vegetables from her space garden, it tasted much better than ordinary vegetables.

The most important thing is that the vegetables on the farm are not harmed by insects. Each one looks beautiful and is very appetizing at first glance.

There are many kinds of vegetables in the farm, whether she likes them or not, as long as they are in the planting season, they are all planted at that time. After all, the vegetables on the farm are not eaten by her alone.

There are also some that may not be very good when eaten alone, but as side dishes, they are indispensable.

After walking around the front yard, Li Jiaojiao turned around and went to the backyard.

Zhuangzi's front and back yards are divided by their own house. Just like the layout of her space, a row of bamboos are planted behind the house, behind the bamboos is a peach forest, and behind the peach forest are various fruit trees.

There are also watermelons and strawberries at the foot of the mountain.

Su Yue said that except for the five girls who stayed in the farm, Qingshan, Qinglin, Qinggu, Qingfeng and Qingshui, no one else had ever entered the backyard.

Only the Lu family's brothers and sisters would occasionally go in to help take care of the orchard and pick some fruit.

Therefore, the orchard on the farm is still in a mature state, and because of the good natural conditions, each fruit tree is exceptionally strong, and the fruits on them are hanging full.

There is no shortage of fruits in Li Jiaojiao's space. Ever since she gained plant powers and the ability to induce childbirth in her previous life, she has never lacked any fruits to eat.

As long as she wanted something, she could just get a seed and throw it somewhere behind the mountain, and it would grow.

There are no such things as regions, environments, temperature differences, or seasons. All external factors do not exist. As long as she wants, she can do it.

It’s a pity that my grandparents are gone and have never tasted the fruits she grew…

She walked quietly in the orchard alone, picking beautiful fruits one by one and placing them carefully in the basket on the little wolf's back.

Until Su Yue saw that she hadn't returned for a long time, she came to look for her and said, "Miss, you have been running around for most of the day, go back and rest early. If you want to eat fruit, I will bring people to pick it tomorrow."

After Li Jiaojiao left for a while, all matters were handed over to Su Yue. Now, Su Yue has become a proper housekeeper.

"During the time I was away, you were the one who suffered the most." Li Jiaojiao turned around and smiled brightly at Su Yue, her eyebrows curved, showing a vibrant vitality.

Su Yue was stunned for a moment. It was really rare for the girl to smile like this.

Until the girl bent down and picked up a big watermelon, Su Yue hurried over to take it, "Girl, let me do it."

Li Jiaojiao did not argue with her, and handed the watermelon to Su Yue and said, "Hasn't this watermelon been picked before?"

Su Yue nodded, "No one has ever seen this melon, and no one knows how to eat it. I see it has always been green and has been growing, so I don't know if it is ripe or not. I will just wait for the girl to come back."

"Well, okay, this is called watermelon, go back and put it in the ice bucket, and tomorrow I'll let you taste what a magical thing that relieves summer heat is." Li Jiaojiao turned and walked out, stretched out her hand to peel off a peach branch that was blocking her way, and continued to say to Su Yue behind her, "Put all the fruits on the little wolf's back in the ice bucket, and tomorrow I'll let Su Xin, Qing Dai, and Qing You prepare some ways to eat them for you to taste.

All the fruits in the orchard can be picked. Tomorrow, you should arrange for people to pick more of each kind, send some to the brothers, distribute some to the people in the farm, and keep some for me to give away. Don't be reluctant to give up the fruits. They will grow again after you pick them. Just pick them..."

As long as she is around, doesn't she have the final say on how many crops of fruit will grow?

Su Yue was holding a big watermelon in her arms, listening to the girl's chatter, with a smile in her eyes, "Yes, girl!"
