Chapter 833 Relaxing

Chapter 833: Relaxing Chapter 833: Relaxing Editor: Atlas Studios After Fan Zijin left, Little Madam Xia was in a bad mood.

Mu Yangling did not know that she had arranged handmaids for Fan Zijin, and only thought that she missed Fan Zijin.

So, she took the initiative to bring the children to cheer her up so that she wouldn’t have time to think about it.

Also, she invited her to go to the farmstead to relax.

Little Madam Xia complained, “I’m afraid His Highness will blame me if I go to the farmstead with you.” “He won’t.” Mu Yangling said, “He’s been so busy these few days that he doesn’t even have time to talk to us.

It won’t be a problem.” “…” Little Madam Xia said, “Don’t you have to serve His Highness?” Mu Yangling said with a smile, “We’ll only set off after he leaves, and he won’t even be back by the time we return.

It’s not a problem.” Little Madam Xia could only carry Little An and follow her to the farmstead.

Fan Zijin handed over his property to the butler to manage.

Every half a year, the outer estate would allocate a sum of money to the inner estate.

Little Madam Xia would only manage the inner estate matters.

As for her dowry, she let her loyal servants manage them and would only check the account book at the end of each year.

Hence, she was not too interested in the farmstead.

However, the children were thrilled.

Not only Little Bear and the twins, but even Little An was so excited that he only fell asleep after midnight.

Seeing that her son was so happy, Little Madam Xia was also in a good mood and now felt that going to the farm was a good idea.

The rice crops were currently at the grain filling stage.

When wheat was about to ripen, the fields would either be a continuous patch of green, or yellowish-orange.

No matter which it was, it was an enjoyment to stroll in the fields in the morning and at sunset with the breeze blowing upon one’s face.

Mu Yangling and the estate manager checked on the crops as they walked.

Little Madam Xia strolled leisurely and was in a good mood as she looked at the greenery.

Behind them, Little Bear and Little An protected the stumbling Tiger Head and Little Lion as the four of them tugged at the grass and plucked the flowers.

As they chased after each other, they let out happy giggles from time to time.

While Mu Yangling was too busy to bother with them, Little Madam Xia stood at the side and watched with a smile.

Nanny Xia heaved a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to comfort her.

“Madam, look, Little Heir is playing well with the Little Prince and the others.

You should be glad that Little Heir only has you by his side now.

Otherwise, he won’t even be in the mood to play with the Little Prince and the others.” The smile on Little Madam Xia’s face faded slightly as she said, “Nanny, I know.

I just feel a little upset.” With a sigh, Nanny Xia patted her head.

“Madam, the Duke is different from His Highness, and you’re also different from Her Highness.

This time, the Duke will officially become an official when he returns to the capital.

As such, he will no longer only be interacting with those businessmen.

Considering this kind of thing is inevitable in the officialdom, it’s better for you to take the initiative to arrange it than wait for others to arrange it.

Just because the Duke doesn’t fancy Concubine Su who was sent by Old Master doesn’t mean that he won’t take a fancy to other women sent by Old Madam.

Especially now that Old Madam and the Duke have a much better relationship.” Little Madam Xia said with a smile, “Nanny, I know all this.

Don’t worry, I won’t waste time and energy on an insoluble problem.” But knowing all that didn’t mean that she wouldn’t feel terrible.

Nanny Xia sighed and said, “You’re already better off than many people, even better off than Old Madam.” By ‘Old Madam’, she was referring to Little Madam Xia’s mother.

Seeing that Little Madam Xia merely smiled at Little An and didn’t answer, Nanny Xia retreated to the side.

It wouldn’t be good to say some things too explicitly.

Fortunately, her mistress was someone who could think things through.

Mu Yangling squatted by the field and pinched a piece of moist soil from the field in her hand, rubbing it away bit by bit.

Then, she nodded slightly and straightened up.

“This year’s weather is considered pretty good.” “Yes, it was very hot last year, but it rained every few days.

This year, there’s less rain, but the temperature isn’t very high.

The water on the mountain hasn’t stopped flowing either.

I asked someone to guide the water into the field with a bamboo tube and let it enter the fields bit by bit, so there’s no shortage of water in the nearby land.” Mu Yangling nodded in appreciation.

“Very good.

In about ten days, the grain filling will end.

As long as it doesn’t rain heavily, this year’s harvesting will be decent.” The estate manager looked at the grains hanging on the crops and couldn’t help but smile.

“Yes, because Dry Rice No.

1 doesn’t use much water, as long as the soil isn’t dry, it can survive.

Therefore, there are fewer cases of farmers fighting over water this year.” Tiger Head walked over shakily and plucked a handful of rice grains.

With a squeeze of his chubby hand, the grain paste stuck to his hand.

As the faint fragrance entered his senses, he stuffed a handful of green shells into his mouth.

Mu Yangling quickly grabbed his hand.

“Why are you stuffing everything into your mouth?” “Ah, ah!” Tiger Head shouted angrily.

This was his food.

Even his mother could not snatch it from him.

Mu Yangling touched his stomach and realized that it was still round, so she wiped his hands with a handkerchief.

“Your stomach is still full.

Don’t eat things at random.” Mu Yangling hugged him and said to the estate manager, “Didn’t you say that there are plums?

Bring the Little Heirs to pick them.” Little Bear and Little An held Little Lion’s hand and came over.

When they heard this, they immediately cheered.

“That’s great!

Let’s go pick delicious fruits.” Tiger Head understood the last sentence and couldn’t help but drool.

Mu Yangling wiped his drool and said with a smile, “Why do you always look like you’re not full even though you’ve been well-fed?” There were not many plum trees on the mountain, and Little Bear could finish picking the plums by himself.

He ran to the tree, swung his shoes, and climbed up.

Then, he kept picking the plums and throwing them into the basket below.

Rain shouted from below, “Little Heir, you have to pick the big and ripe ones.

These green ones aren’t edible.” Still young, Little An had his arms wrapped around a tree and failed to climb up no matter how hard he tried.

So, he turned around and glared at Xiao Ting, instructing him, “Carry me up.” Xiao Ting was stunned.

Prince Little Bear climbed trees by himself, so he didn’t expect Little An to cheat like this.

However, he quickly reacted and placed Prince Little An on the tree branch.

Little Madam Xia protected him at the side and coaxed him.

“Little An, why don’t we let Little Bear pick the plums?” Little An refused and insisted on doing it himself.

When Little Bear saw this from above, he slipped down and reached out to Little An.

“Little An, I’ll pull you up.” Little Madam Xia’s eyes widened.

Before she could refuse, Little An had already reached out to Little Bear.

Little Bear picked him up and carried him up with one hand.

Then, he climbed upwards and chose a very thick tree branch for Little Bear to sit upon and pick fruits.

Little Madam Xia tightened her grip on her chest.

Seeing her son sitting steadily on the tree branch and smiling until his eyes narrowed, she grabbed Mu Yangling’s hand and said, “That was terrifying.” Mu Yangling said with a smile, “Don’t worry.

The two of them won’t fall.

Even if they fall, it’s fine.” Mu Yangling looked in several directions.

Qi Haoran had placed secret guards beside Little Bear and Little An, so she wasn’t too worried about the two children.

Moreover, with her standing under the tree, she could easily catch the children if they should fall.

“Little Bear is so strong.

He’s holding Little An like he’s holding a bun,” Little Madam Xia said with lingering fear.

Little Bear curled his lips on the tree and lay on it, shouting at Little Madam Xia, “Aunt, Little An isn’t heavy at all, really!” He felt that carrying Little An was no different from holding a pair of chopsticks.
