“l wonder if Princess can come today?”
County Magistrate Huang called the old village chief over, and the few county magistrates who were just short of being the servants of the county magistrate took the initiative to ask questions.
“How would I know? What kind of person is the Princess? How could a mere noob like me know her schedule?”
In fact, the old village chief was looking down on these county magistrates in his heart.
‘What a coincidence. I, a mere noob, do know, but I don’t want to say it. I’ll see if you can do anything to me!’
The old village chief was secretly pleased.
‘Their princess is someone who does great things. She’s so busy every day that she doesn’t even have time for herself. Previously, she specially took the time to give you a demonstration, but none of you took it seriously.’
‘Do you really think that you are the God of the Heavens, and the princess still wants to revolve around you? Dream on!’
After the old village chief finished speaking, he ignored the magistrate and went to do his own things. Today, they still had to go to another mountain to dig for spring bamboo shoots.
According to the Princess, time was money and could not be wasted.
The magistrate saw that the old village chief and the others had endless work to do every day, and they didn’t buy it at all. Could it be that he, the magistrate, was in a hurry to let those nobodies teach them?
The villagers were busy with their own things. No one cared about what these officials wanted to do. In their opinion, these people were just having nothing to do.
They thought that just because they were officials, they had to be worshipped by the commoners. Look at how they were spoiled!
There was even a princess in their village who did not put on airs like them!
MO Ruyue had told them that they could just work as usual every day. Moreover, with the old village chief taking the lead, no one bought the words of those county magistrates.
County Magistrate Huang could not help but laugh when he saw the villagers like this. However, he was still surrounded by the county magistrates and county magistrates, so he did not dare to show too much of his emotions, lest they blatantly make things difficult for him.
“County Magistrate Huang, go and ask Princess Ming Yue what rules we should follow here. We can’t just sit here and do nothing every day. We’re here to learn how to grow seedlings!’
County Magistrate Huang quivered. He thought that his little trick had been discovered. Fortunately, it was still fine.
A few of the prefects were really anxious. They saw that many of the lands under their jurisdiction could begin spring plowing. If they did not learn well and did not return to spring plowing, they would not be able to bear the consequences when they went back to the Emperor.
The weather in some places was hotter than in other places, and the prefectural and county magistrates were a little anxious.
“Then do you want to come with me or wait here?”
They didn’t want to go at first, but when they thought about what they were here for, they couldn’t wait to go. They decided to go with them.
Thus, these officials all rushed to the Princess’s manor outside the village.
County Magistrate Huang had already been named by the magistrate to question the Princess, so he could only brace himself and ask the gatekeeper.
“Everyone, please wait a moment.”
The gatekeeper saw that the officials were not afraid at all and hurriedly entered the manor.
While everyone was waiting for the gatekeeper to report, they could not help but look at the luxurious houses on both sides of the main road leading to Ming Yue Mountain Tunnel.
Especially the magistrate who had made a fuss about renting a courtyard the day before yesterday. He suddenly had an idea. He looked at the houses nea_r the mountain. There were a few houses that should still be empty. Perhaps they had not been sold.
Since the Empress and the Empress Dowager had bought a courtyard here, Master Hua had also bought a courtyard here. If he also bought a courtyard here, wouldn’t it be closer to the circle of wealth? Even if he bought it and didn’t live here, it would be easy for the younger generation to come over in the future.
Hence, he beckoned for Magistrate Huang.
County Magistrate Huang saw that it was the troublesome magistrate from the day before yesterday again, and his scalp tightened. Why was he everywhere?
“What orders do you have, sir?”
“Do you know which of these houses haven’t been sold?”
County Magistrate Huang followed the magistrate’s finger and looked over. He was pointing at the houses on both sides of Ming Yue Mountain. He quickly shook his head.
“Milord, you should know that I was just transferred to Reliance Town and am not familiar with this place, so I don’t know anything about these things.” “As for those houses, I had to read the records to know.”
“Alright, then this matter is settled. I’ll have to trouble County Magistrate Huang to see if there are any residences that have yet to be sold. My nephew is about to come to the capital to participate in the imperial examination…”
“Princess asked this one to ask Magistrate Huang why he wanted to see Princess. ”
County Magistrate Huang didn’t even take a nap and directly explained his intentions.
“The lords are asking when the Princess will teach us how to raise seedlings again. ”
“Teach you how to grow seedlings?”
Didn’t he teach her the day before yesterday?
Even if you don’t learn it, you can learn it from the old farmers in the village.
“The Princess only came up with the idea of planting crops. As for the ability to farm, those farmers were more proficient.”
Chun Hua was afraid that the gatehouse would not be able to keep these people under control, so she had come under MO Ruyue’s orders.
Coincidentally, she heard County Magistrate Huangs words and immediately followed up.
The moment she said this, the faces of the county magistrates turned ugly. Ignoring their expressions, Chun Hua continued, “The Princess was tired two days ago and needs a good rest today. The lords should go to the village and ask the old farmers. There is no need to ask the Princess.’
“Besides, didn’t the Princess leave the matter of raising seedlings to the village chief and chief of West River Village to assist the lords?”
“The adults should go ask them. The Princess was also helpless.”
After saying this, Chun Hua also ignored them and gave them a look. She turned around and entered the inner courtyard.
In the end, County Magistrate Huang took the lead and shamelessly begged the old village chief and Wang Tiezhu to teach them how to raise seedlings again. If they did not learn well, they would not have the face to go back.
The main reason was that it would be difficult to explain to the Emperor.
After a few rounds of “beating up”, this time, he was truly obedient with the old village chief, Wang Tiezhu, and the others to learn how to raise seedlings. Fortunately, they had grasped the essentials after a day.
Seeing that many villages and towns had to raise seedlings in advance, the prefectural magistrates who had learned the technique took their leave with MO Ruyue and their county magistrates.
As soon as they left, MO Ruyue was basking in the sun in the garden pavilion. Chun Hua came to report, “There are many people from the Women’s College and hospital in the village who want to enroll.”
“Princess, please tell me.”
The teachers from the Women’s College didn’t need to report to them directly and accepted the students. They couldn’t make a decision on the hospital’s request to study medicine. After all, they needed Princess Ming Yue to teach them personally, so they sent someone to ask.
“Only those who have medical skills and understand medicine are accepted.”
Nim… If they were young, smart, and talented, they could take in a few of them as medicine boys.
He let Da Han, Xiao Han, Da Shu, Xiao Shu, Li Xia and Xiao Xue discuss the selection process.
“Once you’re done, bring it over for me to take a look.”
It was best not to accept more than two people from the same village.
MO Ruyue closed her eyes and instructed Chun Hua before continuing to bask in the sun. She felt that she was lacking calcium and needed to replenish it.
Chun Hua personally went to the medical school to find Da Han, Xiao Han, and a few others to explain MO Ruyue’s instructions.
The first time MO Ruyue recruited people, she wanted them even if she didn’t know how to do it. That was because she didn’t care if she taught one or two people. But now, she didn’t want to teach anymore.
Da Han, Xiao Han, and a few others who were good at medicine could already finish their apprenticeship and could already perform simple external diagnosis. However, they could only bring people who knew some medical knowledge. If they were to teach people who did not know anything, it would be more troublesome. They themselves were not proficient in this field..
