"Brother Chu Ze...why do you feel so busy every day?"
In the backyard of Chu Ze’s house.
Originally, a courtyard should have a front yard and a backyard.
However, by this time Chu Ze's front yard had been converted into a workplace.
All the rockery and green plants were bulldozed, and after the ground was compacted, it was paved with bluestone bricks.
And the backyard, which was originally the only fruitful place, has also faced its disaster today.
All those valuable landscape trees were cut down and their roots dug out.
Rockery stones of various shapes were smashed and used as foundation stones for building greenhouses.
Under the pavilion and beside the fence.
Lan Ruoyan, who had a clear spring in her eyes, sat on the railing in boredom.
Under the railing, there was Chu Ze, who was holding the drawings and directing the craftsmen.
Her little feet, which she kicked randomly out of boredom, would occasionally rub against Chu Ze's shoulders.
However, Chu Ze didn't care at all.
Now as time goes by, Chu Ze gradually becomes less resistant to Lan Ruoyan's existence.
He knew that some things were beyond his control.
That engagement contract was originally his talisman.
Even though Lan Ruoyan is only eleven or twelve years old now, this engagement must be maintained even if it is not fulfilled.
After reaching out to remove the dead grass from Lan Ruoyan's shoes, he then took the water glass she handed over.
"Isn't it good to be busy every day? If you are busy and have goals, life will not seem so boring, right?"
"Besides, my time is really tight. A person's power is limited after all, and I can never finish what I have to do."
After Chu Ze took a sip, he handed the cup to Lan Ruoyan.
He looked at the cup in his hand, and then at Chu Ze who was looking at the drawings at his side.
After Lan Ruoyan shook her lips, she secretly took a small sip from Chu Ze's cup.
Although the cup was just some plain water, she felt it was so sweet!
"Brother Chu Ze, can Ruoyan help you with anything?"
After secretly drinking Chu Ze's water, Lan Ruoyan put the water glass aside with a slightly red face.
After making sure that Chu Ze didn't notice, she quickly thought of this topic to relieve the tension in her heart.
However, what she didn't notice was that Chu Ze looked thoughtfully at the rouge mark left on the side of his cup.
This little girl has even learned how to put on red makeup!
"There are many things you can do to help me! For example, help me keep an eye on my father-in-law. Don't let him get into trouble, and at the same time keep an eye on my two brothers. Now our two families are like one. If something happens to my father-in-law's family, Come on, I’ll be in trouble here too.”
"Other than that, you can grow up with peace of mind. When you grow up, you can help me spread the sheets."
"Brother Chuze, you are talking nonsense, I have grown up!"
After hearing Lan Ruoyan's somewhat unconvinced muttering, Chu Ze was stunned for a moment, then he turned his head and looked at Lan Ruoyan sitting on the railing above.
When Lan Ruoyan faced Chu Ze's gaze, her face immediately turned rosy.
Although she has almost always lived here in Chuze during this period, eating together, going out together and going home together every day.
As long as Chu Ze was not too busy, she would be inseparable from Chu Ze.
but
After all, she is still a child, and she is still a child who is growing up little by little.
"Brother Chu Ze, please stop staring at me like that."
Faced with Chu Ze's gaze, Lan Ruoyan bit her lip and reminded Chu Ze silently in a soft voice.
But this sound could only be heard by herself.
To Chu Ze's ears, she was whispering in a low voice.
Although he didn't hear what she said, Chu Ze could almost guess what she just said based on Lan Ruoyan's increasingly red earlobes.
"Did my father-in-law ask you again about when we will get married?"
Lan Ruoyan was not surprised at all when she heard Chu Ze's sudden question.
After getting along with each other for this period of time, Chu Ze gave Lan Ruoyan the feeling that he understood everything and knew everything.
"This is the fourth time this month that my father has asked. Last time, he said he wanted to give the child a name first."
"Uh Ruoyan, next time your father-in-law asks you this question, hit him with a stick."
Chu Ze, who originally just mentioned it casually, didn't expect Lan Ruoyan to drop a bombshell directly to him.
Good guy, where did this come from?
Lan Yu actually started thinking about naming her grandson.
This guy is simply awesome.
While Chu Ze and Lan Ruoyan were chatting.
Workers have already started digging the foundation of the greenhouse.
Because of Zhu Xi's operations a few days ago, they unexpectedly harvested a batch of seeds.
Although there are many seeds, even those Western Region merchants themselves don’t know what they are.
But this does not prevent Chuze from starting a breeding program.
Moreover, it is very necessary for Chu Ze to build the greenhouse in advance.
Seeing that summer is coming to an end now.
If there is no greenhouse by then, it will be a problem to eat vegetables out of season.
Especially in winter, if there is no cabbage in the hot pot, there will be no rice.
But when Chu Ze was about to take a look at the foundation they dug, a man dressed in white hurriedly ran into the inner courtyard from the outside.
"Egret, what's wrong with you? Why are you in such a panic?"
When he saw the person coming, Chu Ze also temporarily put away the design drawing in his hand.
Then he moved towards the other party.
"Master, there is someone outside looking for you. He said he is from the experimental site. He said that there is progress in artificial incubation. Master, please go and take a look!"
After Bai Lu waited in front of Chu Ze, he first bowed slightly to Chu Ze and then looked at Lan Ruoyan beside him, and also bowed respectfully.
Now the entire Chu family knew that the little girl in front of them, who was only as tall as their master's chest, was their future mistress.
And because Lan Ruoyan inherited some of her personality from her father, even though she is a girl, her personality is often straightforward.
He also has a very easy-going relationship with his servants.
The whole government regarded Lan Ruoyan as a treasure in their palm.
Everyone smiles when they see her.
"Sister Bailu, drink water!"
Generally, in a mansion, there are three types of maids.
One type is the maids, who are mainly responsible for washing dishes, washing clothes, mopping the floor, etc.
The other type is in charge of the maids. This type is responsible for arranging work every day and mainly taking care of the master's family's food and daily life.
The third type is the egret and the spring equinox and summer solstice.
Now, each of Chu Ze's five personal maids has tied up their long hair.
This...is the sign of being a woman.
As long as Chu Ze says something one day, they will no longer be maids, but concubines.
Therefore, Lan Ruoyan treats Bailu and the others as sisters.
Of course, given her age, it would be difficult for her to have a 'sister'.
"Thank you, mistress!"
Bailu looked at the water glass handed over by Lan Ruoyan, and she took it respectfully without hesitation.
Although Lan Ruoyan calls them sister, they all consciously call Lan Ruoyan mistress.
Regarding the problem of getting along between the two girls, Chu Ze chose to ignore it silently.
He believed they could handle these problems on their own.
What he is most concerned about now is the proving ground.
"Zhao Si, keep an eye on this. I've put the drawings here. Remember to leave a place for the heater. I have to go out first."
"Master, please rest assured that nothing will go wrong."
After informing the craftsmen who were transferred to help, Chu Ze looked at Lan Ruoyan beside him, then he smiled slightly and directly took Lan Ruoyan's weak and boneless hand.
"Let's go, brother will take you to play inside the palace. Maybe you can see the newly hatched ducklings if you are lucky!"
"Really? Do I want to change my clothes?"
"No need, you are already very beautiful like this."
"whee.."
After telling Bailu to watch the house, Chu Ze took Lan Ruoyan and left the house.
After getting on the carriage, we headed all the way to the testing site.
When they arrived at the main palace gate, they had to walk the rest of the way.
Although Lan Ruoyan is Lan Yu's daughter.
But in this era of distinction between superiors and inferiors, Lan Ruoyan has actually never set foot in the palace a few times since she was a child. Even every time she came, her father would repeatedly tell her to be careful and to follow her father at all times.
But this time it was completely different. Chu Ze held her hand and the journey was as relaxing and comfortable as if she were visiting the back garden of her own home.
Those watery eyes looked around curiously.
Full of curiosity about everything.
And as Chu Ze led her through the increasingly heavily guarded corridors, and finally arrived at the testing site, Chu Ze, the dean of the testing site, had just entered.
I saw that the testing ground was particularly lively today.
Not only that, the number of guards has increased a lot.
Lan Ruoyan, who walked into the testing site for the first time, had curiosity written all over her face.
Is this the testing ground that my father always talked about?
It turns out that the place where brother Chu Ze works is so lively and there are many stoves there!
Wow, that person over there is still sleeping. By the way, is it allowed to sleep while working?
Is this considered laziness?
Moreover, why was he sleeping covered with a white cloth on such a hot day?
oh! He must be trying to hide and be lazy!
Wow, it’s so lively over there. What are they doing?
At this time, Lan Ruoyan was like a child walking into an amusement park for the first time.
Facing the novel environment, although her eyes were full of curiosity, she couldn't help but feel a little scared.
As long as there was some noise around her, she would lean towards Chu Ze with a signal.
"Mr. Farmer, congratulations! You are going to be prosperous this time!"
"Yes, yes. You actually hatched these chickens and ducks just by relying on a box. If it hadn't been in this experimental field, you might have been said to be a god!" "
"Hey, Niu Lao Si, you don't dare to say this! Didn't you see how many batches of those 'gods' have been changed! We can't live with the gods, so we should just be ordinary people."
"That's right! There are few who claim to be the reincarnation of gods and can talk to gods. I'm afraid there aren't many in the entire Jinling City!"
"Hahaha, don't talk about this. Mr. Nong, what is the principle of your box? Tell us about it. If you don't know, it will also be helpful to our experiment!"
"Yes, yes, please tell me quickly!"
"Hey... give way to everyone outside! The dean is here! The dean is here!"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the dean has brought his daughter, don't scare the dean's daughter!"
"??"
When Chu Ze brought Lan Ruoyan to the craftsmen gathered together, the people outside noticed him and Lan Ruoyan immediately.
Chu Ze was quite relieved when he heard someone taking the initiative to help the people gathered to get out of the way.
However, the next second, someone suddenly shouted, and he came with his daughter.
Chu Ze almost slipped and fell to the ground.
At the side, Lan Ruoyan's face turned red to the root of her neck.
daughter
They actually said that they were brother Chu Ze's daughter.
Who has such bad taste!
You... you say she is your sister anyway. .
Really annoying!
"Ahem. I know that a colleague's experiment was successful. Everyone is very excited and sincerely happy for each other."
“But it’s working time after all, so why don’t everyone leave first.
"At the end of this month, I will hold an award ceremony for everyone who has made breakthroughs or achieved success in their experiments."
"When the time comes, not only will I be there, but His Majesty will also be there in person to award honors to all the winners. At the same time, there will also be historians who will record your achievements one by one in the history books!"
"Your contribution today will make your name go down in history and be famous forever!"
"So, everyone should work hard!"
When Chu Ze walked into the crowd, everyone saw Chu Ze arriving.
Although anyone present was randomly pulled out, they were all much older than Chu Ze.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, the whole place fell silent instantly.
This testing ground was established by Chu Ze, and everyone present knew this.
After the test site was established, those who entered the test site were actually extremely worried.
Most of them are craftsmen at the lowest level of society, or farmers, or helpers.
If you're lucky, you can still make ends meet.
Those who are unlucky can only be said to be struggling on the verge of starving to death.
And since entering the testing site, it has only been a little over a month.
Some of them have already seen meat in their homes.
Some people rarely take a day off, and when the neighbors see him, they all greet him with a smile.
Even because they work in the palace, many wealthy businessmen have to smile flatteringly when they see them.
All these changes were brought about by Chu Ze.
Therefore, Chu Ze's prestige is very high in this experimental field.
Almost everyone respects Chu Ze absolutely from the bottom of their hearts.
Of course. The exception is the people in the chemical area.
Basically few of them want to come here.
And there are not many people who can come out alive.
Please give me a monthly pass, my dears!
