Blessed Daughter

In the following days, Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also conducted on-the-spot surveys of the cotton fields purchased by Wei Ruo, and arranged various planting and management tasks for the cotton fields.

During the period, the two went down together a few times.

If Wei Ruo needs to go to the fields, the crops she personally planted can increase experience points when they grow into harvests, so she will definitely go to the fields by herself when she catches a good opportunity.

Not only did Wei Jin not say much about Wei Ruo's behavior that was not in line with ordinary ladies, but he even accompanied her to toss it.

Wei Jin also put on coarse clothes again, picked up a hoe, and looked like a peasant, but his skin color and appearance were still too different from that of a peasant. It seemed that he didn't often work in the fields, only his palms Calluses are like that.

After Wei Ruo had been busy for a while, she turned her head and saw Wei Jinyi's cheeks covered in mud, which looked a little funny, so she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Wei Jin also saw her smiling at him, knowing that maybe his appearance was a bit strange, but he didn't care if his image was damaged.

"Second brother, why didn't I realize that you have the potential to be a coolie, and this hoe is better than Zhao Ergou." Wei Ruo commented.

"Who is Zhao Ergou?" Wei Jin also asked.

"A little brother from Mojiazha used to fight with Brother Xiaoyong quite often, and every time he was beaten by Brother Xiaoyong until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen."

"Why are they fighting?"

"At first it was because Zhao Ergou and Xiaopang at the entrance of the village spoke ill of me together, and Brother Xiaoyong defended me. Later, Zhao Ergou was unconvinced, and he had to challenge Brother Xiaoyong every time."

"Sounds like fun."

"Yeah, and Meimei, she and Brother Xiaoyong quarrel as soon as they meet, they are a pair of treasures."

Speaking of this, Wei Ruo suddenly put down the hoe in his hand and remembered something.

"Second brother, I feel that it's time for me to tell Meimei about marriage."

"Who do you want to tell her about?"

"Of course it's Brother Xiaoyong. I know Brother Xiaoyong likes her, but Meimei doesn't seem to know." Wei Ruo said.

Some things are clear to the onlookers, Wei Ruo can see some clues from watching Xiumei and Xu Zhengyong fight and bicker.

After a pause, Wei Ruo added: "But it depends on Meimei's own thoughts. If she doesn't want to, forget it. Women don't have to marry, as long as they live happily, it's the same if they don't marry. I can have a good time. It is also because this person is Brother Xiaoyong, so I think I can give it a try, and I will not arrange for the other people."

Wei Ruo was also afraid that if Xiumei was interested in Xu Zhengyong in her heart, it was just because Xiumei wanted to take care of her and accompany her that the marriage of the two was delayed.

"So at that time, you would rather go out and marry someone who was dying than marry Xu Zhengyong?" Wei Jin also asked.

Wei Jin also knew a long time ago that if Wei Ruo just wanted to get away from the Wei family, marrying Xu Zhengyong would be a good choice, especially at that time Xu Zhengyong already had an official position.

"That's natural. I can't drag Brother Xiaoyong from marrying a wife in the future. Even if he doesn't have feelings for Meimei, it won't work." Wei Ruo admitted.

She married in a fake way. If Brother Xiaoyong's wife's position is taken, Brother Xiaoyong will not be able to marry a wife and have children normally.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo said to Wei Jin: "I didn't delay you now, you chose it yourself!"

"Um."

"However, if you really want to have children, that's fine. I'll help you find a beauty, but you'll have to make this beauty a side concubine or concubine." Wei Ruo added.

Wei Ruo has this idea because recently there is always an Eunuch Gao who stares at him, hoping that he will leave a heir for the "seriously ill" Prince Rui.

"Don't talk nonsense." Wei Jinyi's expression became serious.

"How can it be nonsense, I know that many men have such thoughts. It's not bad, after all, you are the only surviving blood of your maternal ancestor's family."

Wei Ruo himself doesn't have any idea about offspring, but he also knows that the offspring family is still very important in the thinking of men in this world.

Even the second elder brother may not be able to escape the vulgarity.

And they don't know how long they will have to play this fake couple. If he really needs it, she, as the wife in name, should help him make arrangements.

"It's getting late, it's time to go back." Wei Jinyi suddenly changed the subject.

Wei Ruo smiled, and found that her second brother was a little shy on this topic, so she didn't continue.

Hey, the second brother is also, unexpectedly so clueless.

I heard that when the prince in the palace was fifteen or sixteen years old, there were people in the palace who specially taught him about this aspect.

The hero Chu Lan in the original book is an exception. Although there are many women in his backyard, he has never had a relationship with any of them. After Wei Qingwan entered his backyard, he even doted on her alone.

The reason is that when Chu Lan was thirteen years old, she was drugged and climbed into bed by a court lady who tried to jump the dragon gate with a carp. Things are full of vigilance.

I don't know why her second brother is like this, so I will find an opportunity to ask Lin Fang and the others another day.

In addition to matters related to the cotton field, Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also went to a nearby coal mine together.

At that time, private mining was allowed, but a higher mining tax was charged, which was 30% of the 30th, that is, one-tenth.

However, even if the imperial court allows it, it is still difficult for ordinary people to obtain the right to open mines and kilns. It is not that anyone can open a mine if they want to, and they must have official approval and good relations with each other.

Fortunately, Wei Ruo's current identity is not an ordinary person, and the identities of Prince Rui and Princess Rui become very useful at this time.

So with the help of Wei Jinyi, Wei Ruo reached an agreement with the local government and purchased a nearby coal mine without too much trouble.

This made Wei Ruo very happy, and once again felt the benefits of Princess Rui's heavy status.

Coal has a wide range of uses. In addition to heating, it also plays an extremely important role in smelting.

And because of the coming winter, coal will become very tight. Although coal is not as good as wood-fired charcoal for heating even after refining, it is better than freezing.

On the way back, seeing Wei Ruo's happy face because Prince Rui's Mansion took down the coal mine, Wei Jinyi couldn't help but lighten up.

If she could really be an idle prince, it would be a good choice for her to live the life she wanted so carefree.

And he is also willing to stay by her side in such an embarrassing capacity, until one day she has a better choice.

"Second brother, thank you." Wei Ruo suddenly turned around and said to Wei Jin who was looking at him in a daze.
