Chapter 503 - 503: Glass Greenhouses
MO Ruyue decided to go down to the pond to take a look. She had to find out the reason. There were many children in the village. It would be bad if one of them wanted to eat lotus roots.
She gave Sun Nu an antidote pill and some water. She woke up in a short while.
Sun Nu still didn’t understand what was going on when she woke up. She remembered that they were digging lotus roots in the pond before.
Why was she back in bed? Was she dreaming?
The commotion here also attracted the attention of the other villagers. They all came to ask what was going on.
After Sun Nu woke up, MO Ruyue asked Xia Yu to take care of her. She had to personally go to the pond to take a look.
“Mother, you have to be careful. Take a detoxification pill first.”
MO Ruyue lovingly stroked Tang Tang’s head. This little cotton-padded jacket was really too warm. She ate the pill she handed him. “Wait at home obediently. Don’t run around.”
“Yes, Mother, don’t worry. I will look after my sister.”
Every time MO Ruyue reminded him, Si Bao would stand up like a big brother.
As the four guards assigned by Princess Ming Yue to guard the courtyard, they also went to help harvest the rice today.
Two of them picked up the rice that had been tied up and returned to their own field. They happened to bump into them carrying Sun Nu back. They also understood that Sun Nu was poisoned. Now, how could the two of them still have the mood to work?
Now that MO Ruyue insisted on going into the pond, they did not dare to let her go to a place where someone had been poisoned.
Many villagers came over to check on the situation. When they saw MO Ruyue going into the pond, they advised her not to.
“Madam, let us go.”
The two of them jumped into the pond before MO Ruyue.
“Then head to the south in front. Try to raise your heads as much as possible.
When you face down, it’s best not to breathe.”
“I’ll remember it. Don’t worry, Madam. ‘
The two of them found two dead chickens three meters away from where Sun Nu had fainted. There was no meat left, only feathers attached to the chicken bones.
“That makes sense.”
“The two of you, come up quickly and go home to wash up and rest.”
In front of the villagers, MO Ruyue explained in detail the reason why Sun Nu had been poisoned by the miasma. She especially asked them to take good care of their children, and even the adults themselves.
Even if they wanted to eat lotus roots and had to go down to dig, they had to have a companion to watch over them. It was too dangerous to be alone. The villagers obediently noted it down.
“No wonder Auntie Liu from my village went to dig lotus roots, but I don’t understand why she suddenly drowned in the pond. She probably got poisoned by this miasma.”
Aunt Chen was using a walking stick to solve an unknown case in her childhood village.
Sun Nu was poisoned by the miasma. Fortunately, she was discovered in time and nothing major happened. Even so, the few of them were still a little frightened.
However, under MO Ruyue’s command, Jiayao and Aunt Zhou worked together to make a glutinous rice lotus root. These people ate the sweet glutinous rice lotus root and felt much more relaxed.
“Desserts can really relax people.”
The dozens of girls chattered and soon forgot about the small fright in the morning.
MO Ruyue looked at the girls and remembered that there seemed to be quite a few ponds in the village nearby. She went to the village chief and told him that there might be miasma in the ponds and asked him to help spread it to prevent any harm.
In the afternoon, Meng Xun suddenly came to the village to look for MO
Ruyue.
“What’s the matter, Lord Meng?”
When Meng Xun saw MO Ruyue, he was a little embarrassed.
Ever since MO Ruyue went to deliver fried chicken to him, his imagination had been running wild. He hadn’t seen MO Ruyue for several days. Every time, it was Xue Bangyan who went to check on him and asked if he had any questions. She knew that he might have misunderstood.
“Oh, Master Xue said that you like greenhouses. Now that Azurite has arrived, why don’t you give me a picture so that I can cover the greenhouses?
The blueprints of the royal princess’s manor naturally did not include a glass greenhouse.
However, since the other party had bought so many colored glasses and sent them to the princess’s manor, they were just passing by.
He could tell that this Princess Ming Yue was quite capable. Although the houses of the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital now had glass greenhouses, and the windows of many families were all inlaid with glass, as long as they had money, they could buy glass. However, ordinary people were still reluctant to use it on their houses.
MO Ruyue understood what Meng Xun meant.
Gu Ying must have brought glass over and didn’t tell her. Was he trying to give her a surprise?
It was indeed a pleasant surprise.
“Well, if you’re not in a hurry, sit down and have a cup of tea and eat something first. I’ll go draw.”
Meng Xun was shocked when he heard MO Ruyue say that she was going to draw!
He had never expected MO Ruyue to know how to draw, and it was even a construction drawing. She was really capable.
Usually, even talented girls would only draw flowers, grass, mountains, and rivers. This was the first time he had heard of a girl who knew how to draw construction drawings.
He wanted to stay and take a look.
“Yes, sir.”
“Qiu Shi, serve a plate of glutinous rice lotus root and a pot of tea for Lord Meng.”
“Yes.
Qiu Shi immediately went to prepare.
“Lord Meng, can you tell me how much glass there is?
‘Eight carriages.”
Meng Xun subconsciously thought of how shocked they were when Azurite arrived in the eight carriages.
After saying that, he felt a little strange. This princess bought it herself. How could she not know?
“Wait a moment.”
MO Ruyue didn’t answer Meng Xun’s questions and went into the house to draw.
Meng Xun and Qiu Shi brought over a stack of neatly stacked lotus root slices.
The lotus root’s eyes were filled with rice grains, and it looked a little delicious.
However, he had never seen such a way of eating.
“Sir, please enjoy.”
After the autumn fruits subsided, Meng Xun picked up a piece of lotus root. It was sweet and soft in his mouth. It turned out that the lotus root was stuffed with glutinous rice.
After MO Ruyue came out, Meng Xun realized that he had unknowingly finished the entire plate of glutinous rice and lotus roots. His face was a little
“Here. ”
Meng Xun took the blueprint and admired MO Ruyue even more. She was indeed extraordinary. “I will take my leave.”
“Alright. ”
However, when Meng Xun left, he went to the sanatorium and ordered ten fried chicken and ten sauce ducks.
The village was also bustling with activity. Most of the people working in the fields began to pick up the harvested rice from the fields and bring it home. After putting down their burdens, everyone at the village entrance drank a bowl of cold mung bean soup, which was especially comfortable.
This green bean soup was specially prepared by MO Ruyue for the villagers to drink. The green beans were not bought, but grown in the village.
Now, every household in the village would send some to MO Ruyue when they were ready to harvest the crops.
MO Ruyue had grown mung beans at home too, so they couldn’t finish them all, so they simply cooked mung bean soup.
MO Ruyue sat in the courtyard and ate grapes. She enjoyed watching the busy people outside. She finally didn’t have to do farm work anymore.
Qin Qingfei rushed into the courtyard angrily.
“Sister-in-law!”
Qin Qingfei was surprised that her sister-in-law was still in the mood to eat grapes. Then, she realized that she had no idea what was happening outside. She took a deep breath.
“Sister-in-law, let me tell you, the few apprentices in your hospital, the one who was poisoned this morning, the one called Sun something servant, are really shameless!”
“Did Sun Nu offend you? If there’s anything, sit down and eat some grapes.
Look at you sweating.”
Qin Qingfei sat down, but she couldn’t eat anything.
“Hurry up and fire that Servant Sun. She has evil intentions and is simply a vixen.. Don’t let our Si Bao and Tang Tang learn bad things!’
