Chapter 1005: Chapter 1005: On Fire_1 Chapter 1005: Chapter 1005: On Fire_1 After thinking it over, Yang Wenxiao called Ren Zhong and asked him to send a ssage to Qiao Xiaomai: from now on, send fresh vegetables to the Palace every other day.
With the snow sled, walking in heavy snow was not too difficult, and with the natural freezer that the weather provided, he could enjoy fresh vegetables in Capital City.
It was just a pity that Xiaomai’s livestock were too few; otherwise, he would have had her send at as well.
Never mind, before the affairs of the Imperial Kitchen were cleared up, he decided to stick to a vegetarian diet.
Previously, Xiaomai had also contributed so Bean Sweet Potatoes, and with these, he could hold out for half a month.
Manor.
After Yang Wenxiao left, another hundred guards ca to the manor; Xiaomai arranged accommodations for them at the Guest House.
There was no helping it; the weather was cold in winter, it wasn’t possible to break ground, and no new houses could be built, so the Guest House could only allow the Royal people and guards to take turns staying there.
With the arrival of this batch of guards, the manor now had two hundred and fifty guards, divided into three groups patrolling around the manor day and night without stop.
Under such circumstances, the manor’s security had greatly improved.
However, Tong Sanlang was still weak, his combat strength even less than that of Xiaomai; the mont Yang Wenxiao left, he started feeling aggravated.
The defense around Yang Wenxiao was the strongest, so he hadn’t been worried before.
But now that Yang Wenxiao had left and he could only rest, it took just two days for him to beco so anxious that blisters ford at the corner of his mouth.
Xiaomai held his face with both hands, staring at the small blister at the corner of his mouth for a mont; she couldn’t help but laugh, “Seeing these little blisters, I, who have trypophobia, always want to pop them.”
Tong Sanlang, “…It’s ugly, isn’t it?”
“It’s not ugly, a little blister can’t affect your handso face.” Xiaomai smiled and lowered her head to give him a fierce kiss on his lips.
After kissing, she even stuck out her tongue to lick his lips and then finally let go of his cheeks, “I’ll go and make you so Herbal dicine to reduce your internal heat.”
“No need, mine is ‘heart fire’.” Tong Sanlang held on to her, stopping her from leaving.
Frustrated, he really did lose all face and self-esteem in front of Xiaomai.
First, his body was weak, and now he had to rely on Xiaomai for everything, making him seem more like a kept man with a pretty face.
“Silly.” Naturally, Xiaomai understood his thoughts, raised her hand to pat his cheeks, “We only have a grudge against Cen Hong, and now he’s locked up in the big prison; don’t worry, there’s no need to rush.”
Of course, Tong Sanlang knew this too; it was just that he had gotten used to being an expert and being active, and now, doing nothing made him feel uneasy all over, like his skin was crawling.
He let out a sigh, “You’ve been working hard.”
“It’s not hard work; I’m just moving my lips.” Xiaomai tapped his forehead gently, “Rest up and don’t think too much.”
The most pressing work at ho now was caring for the one hundred and fifty pigs, but feeding the pigs was the hired workers’ responsibility, so she just needed to give orders.
Moreover, a large room was set up in the Warehouse for growing greens, which the hired workers handled as well; she only had to take a look each day.
There were also the bicycles; including Tong Dalaong, thirty people ca to report every day, and with increasing efficiency in their work, they could make twelve to twenty bicycles in a day.
The manor was rather large, but there were also plenty of hired workers; aside from preparing the three daily als for her and Tong Sanlang, she had no other work to do.
“I’m now quite content having beco the lady of the manor,” she said with a smile.
Tong Sanlang, looking at her pretty face, couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile, “Then, starting from today, I’ll begin research on paper-making.”
