Chapter 1053: Chapter 1047: Harvesting Potatoes
Gu Youyou had grown accustod to this kind of life, initially feeling very embarrassed, but now she was quite calm about it.
Evening was the only ti for fun, what else could they do?
It was the sa for every newlywed couple.
Jin Zijin, massaging Gu Youyou’s belly, whispered, “It’s about ti to get pregnant, isn’t it?”
Gu Youyou’s mouth twitched as she removed his hand, replying, “Is it that easy? My body was too frail before, it’s not easy to conceive.”
“Oh?” Jin Zijin raised an eyebrow and said, “Then I must try harder, striving to conceive sooner.”
Gu Youyou couldn’t help but smile wryly, pushing away his approaching body, “No, we must be restrained.”
“How can we be restrained if we’re trying for a child? If we restrain ourselves, how will we have a child?”
Gu Youyou: “…” Are these two related?
“Having children isn’t like that, oh dear, you wouldn’t understand even if I explained it to you, it’s too complicated to explain in a short ti. Anyway, I know what I’m doing. When it’s ti for to tell you to work hard, I’ll let you know. Not these days, it’s a safe period, let’s wait a few days.”
“There’s a safe period?” Jin Zijin admitted he really didn’t understand.
“It’s really troubleso, just don’t let any day slip by. Co, let’s go to sleep.”
He lifted the washed clean Gu Youyou from the water, wrapped her in a blanket, and dried her body.
Lying on the bed, Jin Zijin talked about the events of the day.
After listening, Gu Youyou curled her lips and said, “King Jin has misused private punishnt and killed so many common people, and ends up just confined to his own house for a month? Isn’t this punishnt too light? Instead of saying he’s confined for a month, it’s better to say it’s a month of good rest at ho. Who ca up with this terrible idea?”
Jin Zijin laughed, “This terrible idea, of course, ca from the Protector of the Nation. Seeing King Jin’s deanor, he harbors resentnt towards the Protector, because he always feels he’s done nothing wrong. But had the Protector not co forward to impose confinent, the punishnt he’d receive wouldn’t just be a month.”
“Did the Emperor agree to this too? Is your father really that apprehensive of the Protector?”
“What are you thinking about?” Jin Zijin gently pinched Gu Youyou’s nose, saying, “With the Protector suggesting it, King Jin has directed all his resentnt towards him, which is better than any punishnt.”
Gu Youyou found it ridiculous, but said nothing more.
So all those people were rely killed by King Jin for nothing?
But in this society, that really was the case.
Gu Youyou asked, “So will the victims’ families receive any compensation?”
Jin Zijin replied, “They should, but you don’t need to worry about this. The Imperial Court will give an explanation.”
She naturally didn’t bother to care; there were so many injustices in the world, and she wasn’t idle with nothing else to do, how could she mind everything? With the recent relief efforts, she had already done her best.
Gu Youyou suddenly rembered sothing and asked, “Oh, I previously asked soone to collect a large amount of potatoes, it should be ti to harvest them.”
Jin Zijin frowned slightly, asking, “Why did you collect so many potatoes?”
Gu Youyou explained, “Potatoes grow quickly, especially the autumn potatoes. Plant them next month, and in two or three months, they will be ready to eat. This year, the south suffered from floods, and there may not be enough food to last until the next harvest season, and everyone can’t wait until next spring to start planting crops. I figured potatoes yield high and grow quickly, making them ideal for mass cultivation right now.”
Jin Zijin, stunned for a mont, poked Gu Youyou’s head forcefully, saying, “I really want to see what’s inside your brain, you’ve thought it through so thoroughly. This action really helps the Imperial Court a lot.”
