Chapter 216 Fields
"You're just going to give it to me like this?" The secret guards are not furniture or anything like that, they are living people, they are forces! In addition, those who can serve as the secret guards of the Seasons Banquet must have good martial arts skills.
"Yes, I'll give it to you. You can order them around from now on." Ji Shiyan said this very seriously and was not joking.
"Then I'll accept it." Su Mu took the token and wore it close to his body.
Seeing Su Mu accept it, Ji Shiyan was very happy. Did their relationship become closer? Mu Mu really had him in her heart.
"Come on, I'll show you around here."
The fields in the space were very large, and the crops planted there were innumerable, which dazzled the two of them.
There are ponds, warehouses and houses. It is like a small world.
After visiting the space and leaving, the emperor kept praising it and could not stop thinking about it.
"This is simply wonderful." When the emperor left the Su family, he did not forget to instruct Su Mu, "Su girl, if you have anything new, remember to show it to grandpa!"
"Okay!" Su Mu sent the two people out.
"Mumu can come to me if you have any problem." Ji Shiyan continued the words of the emperor.
"Okay, I'll definitely come to you if I need anything."
Anyway, these two people know about these things, so you can be more unrestrained in front of them without having to hide anything.
Su Mu felt happy when she thought that she could do things openly in the future. She no longer had to worry about what would happen if these things were exposed, nor did she have to think of various excuses to cover it up.
Someone cleared the obstacles for her, and with the protection of two royal members, the Emperor Retired and Ji Shiyan, things would be much easier afterwards.
After seeing the two people off, Su Mu returned home and saw the expectant expressions of his family.
"Nothing happened. They went back too."
The family members breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
No matter what Mumu wants to do, they support her. They also understand that hiding it is not a solution. Although their two families have a good relationship, the identity of the emperor is still a royal family, which cannot be ignored.
If the royal family had any bad intentions, I don’t know if these old bones could protect Mumu.
But fortunately, everything is moving in the right direction.
Su Dingguo said with a smile, "The character of these two people is beyond reproach."
"Today the old general told me about the wandering Taoist priest. We both met the same person." I don't know who that Taoist priest is and how he could know so many things.
"Grandpa, please tell me in detail." Su Mu sat next to Su Dingguo. During the day, the two of them had a lively conversation in the space, and he was taking Ji Shiyan around, so he still didn't know what the specific situation was.
The old and the young started a new round of discussion about the wandering Taoist priest. They knew for sure that the Taoist priest had real abilities and his whereabouts were elusive, so no one could find him. As for the time predicted by the Taoist priest, only the members of the royal family knew the news, which had not been leaked and was not known to the outside world.
After cleaning up, Li came to the main room and saw that the grandfather and grandson were still chatting.
"Okay, it's getting late, why don't you go to bed."
"You old man only know how to disturb Mumu's rest."
Su Mu looked up and saw that it was indeed getting late, so he said coquettishly, "Okay, grandma, I'm going to bed now."
He turned around and ran out, leaving the rest to grandpa.
Before she ran far, she could still hear grandma's nagging voice at grandpa. Grandpa didn't dare to refute a word and just kept nodding.

The scorching sun was burning the earth, and Sumu was woken up by the heat in the morning.
"The weather is getting hotter." Su Mu stood at the gate of the courtyard, muttering to himself as he looked at the sun.
"Mumu, get up and have some mung bean soup."
"Hey, Mom, I'm here!" Su Mu responded, and after washing up, he prepared to have breakfast.
A bowl of mung bean soup, steamed buns and some pickles is a very rich breakfast.
"The weather is getting hotter. If it doesn't rain in a while, the crops in the fields will need watering." Su Dingguo sighed.
Farmers depend on the weather for their livelihood, and if the weather is bad the harvest will be poor.
As the temperature rises, water vapor evaporates quickly, which will lead to water shortage in the fields and even drought.
“Watering is not an easy job.”
There are no pumps, water pipes or other equipment here. It is easier to water the land close to the water source, but those fields that are far away from the water source and not convenient for irrigation need manpower to use vehicles to pull water and water them little by little.
"It's okay, Grandpa, I'll think of a way."
Su Mu's mind was working rapidly. It was time to put the issue of how to water the fields on the agenda. He had so many fields, many of which had not yet been planted with any crops. In addition, after selling the remaining mature vegetables, a lot of fields would be empty again.
These fields need to continue to grow vegetables, corn, sweet potatoes and other crops. After planting, they still need to be watered in such hot weather so that the crops can germinate and grow well.
How to facilitate irrigation requires careful consideration.
After breakfast, while the temperature in the morning was not yet at its hottest, Sumu prepared to go to the fields to check on the water sources around the fields.
"Mom, I'm going to check out the fields."
"Okay, Mumu, put on your sun hat." Wang took out Sumu's sun hat.
Smiling, he put on the stick and said, "My child is so beautiful, she can't get sunburned."
"Thank you, mother!" Su Mu thanked sweetly.
"Go!" Wang patted her shoulder.
As soon as Su Mu went out, he ran into Ji Shiyan who was out.
"Mumu/Ji Shiyan." The two spoke at the same time, then smiled at each other.
"Where are you going, Mumu?"
"I'm going to take a look at the fields. What are you doing?" Su Mu looked Ji Shiyan up and down.
"I'll go with you." Ji Shiyan said hurriedly, fearing that Su Mu would not take him with him.
"Sure, don't you have anything else to do?" Su Mu asked. Although it was cooler than at noon in the morning, the temperature was still not low.
"No, I came here to see you."
He received too much news yesterday and it was too shocking. When he slept at night, he dreamed of every little detail of his time with little Mumu. When he woke up early in the morning, he especially wanted to see Mumu.
So I calculated that Mumu should have finished her meal at this time, so I went to find her.
"Then let's go together." Su Mu chuckled.
The two men walked side by side towards the field.
In the fields on both sides of the road, many people were weeding in the fields during the slightly cooler morning hours, while others were sowing seeds. Some of the seeds that were sown early had already grown into seedlings, and people were watering the seedlings with ladles and wooden buckets.
People who had finished their work gathered in groups of three or four to chat under the shade of trees, in the morning breeze blowing through the fields. They talked about family matters, weather changes, and the conditions in each family's fields.
The hearty laughter coming from time to time together forms a picture of a farm life.
