Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times

Xia Zixuan asked Zhishu to stand aside while she took a bamboo pole and hit the dates on the tree. The dates were ripe and easy to hit. Many dates fell down as she hit them with the pole.

She was fighting here and there, and when Zhiqiu, Jinghe and others arrived, this was the scene they saw.

Zhiqiu said, "Zhishu, why did you let the girl do it herself? What if she gets tired?"

Xia Zixuan saw Zhiqiu scolding Zhishu, "Zhiqiu, stop scolding Zhishu. I was the one who wanted to do it. You girls are not that delicate. You can't get tired."

Zhiqiu said helplessly: "Girl, you should take a rest first! Let's pick up the dates on the ground first, and then let Brother Leshan and Leping go to the tree and knock down the ones that are high up."

"Okay, let's do this!" Xia Zixuan stopped when she saw Uncle Meng following.

Xia Meng bowed and said, "Hello young lady. I heard from Jinghe that the young lady wanted to see me. What is it about?"

"Well, Uncle Meng, you don't have to be so polite. It's like this. I heard from Brother Mu that there's a dragon turning over in Qinghe County. Go and find out which village it is in tomorrow."

"Yes, then I will go and inquire tomorrow morning."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Meng. You can go and get busy first!"

Xia Meng smiled and shook his head, saying, "Miss, this is serious. I'm going to go down first."

Xia Zixuan nodded and said, "Okay."

Le Shan saw that his family had finished talking, and said, "Girl, give me the bamboo pole! Le Ping and I will go and knock down all the dates from the tree."

"Okay, you two be careful." Xia Zixuan warned.

"We got it, girl." After that, the two of them climbed up the tree with the ladder.

Le Shan said to the people below: "Girls, we are starting to fight, please stay away, or you will be hit by the dates."

While Xia Zixuan and his men were picking dates, Mu Chenyi rode away on horseback, and without stopping, he arrived at Prince Yi's Mansion in Yizhou Prefecture, his fiefdom, and saw the housekeeper and a group of people waiting outside to greet them.

Seeing Mu Chenyi coming back on horseback, everyone knelt down and said, "Welcome Your Highness back to the palace. Meet Master Su."

Mu Chenyi said in a clear voice: "Well, everyone get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Steward Lin stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you have been exhausted from the journey. Let's go back to the mansion and have dinner first!"

Mu Chenyi said in a clear voice: "Okay!"

Su Baiyu came over and said, "Butler Lin, please leave quickly. I haven't eaten for two meals and I'm tired and hungry now."

Steward Lin smiled and said, "Then Mr. Su, please go to the front hall to have dinner with the prince."

Because they had to hurry on their way, the two quickly finished their meal. Mu Chenyi got up and took Su Baiyu to the study room, where he complained, "Why didn't I realize the food in the palace was so bad before? It really can't compare to the food at Zixuan's place."

Mu Chenyi glanced at him sideways and said, "I've never seen you so fussy before. Just have something to eat."

But what he was thinking in his heart was that the food was indeed not as delicious as that at Zixuan's house. Thinking of Xia Zixuan, he became much softer.

Su Baiyu pursed his lips, "I didn't realize the food could be so delicious before! And..."

"Okay, business is more important." Mu Chenyi interrupted him.

At this time, outside the study, Ying Yi and the other two were surprised to find that there was a woman in the palace, and she was walking towards the study with tea in her hand.

Ying Er frowned and said, "Who are you? Don't you know that the study is a restricted area and that you are not allowed to enter at will?"

Ting Lan saw three people and thought they were the guards following the prince. She bowed and saluted, "Hello, everyone. I am sent by Steward Lin to bring tea to the prince."

Ying San sneered: "Is Steward Lin getting old and confused? Doesn't he know that the prince doesn't allow other women to get close to him?"

Ying Yi said coldly: "You can go down! We are here to serve the prince."

"This..." She was about to say something, but she saw Ying Yi looking at her with a dark face. She could only reluctantly say: "Yes, I'll take my leave."

Watching the person leave, Ying San snorted coldly: "Humph, I don't know where Steward Lin brought this woman back from, but she actually dared to covet our prince."

"Okay, talk less! Don't disturb the prince and Master Su from discussing things." Ying Er said.

Upon hearing this, Ying San immediately shut up and stopped talking.

Mu Chenyi, who was discussing something with Su Baiyu in the study, frowned and his face darkened when he heard the woman's voice.

It was not until Yingyi and the others drove the people away that his expression eased a lot. Then he thought that this housekeeper Lin was really like Yingsan said, he was old and confused and brought all kinds of people back.

Su Baiyu looked at him, "Ayi, when did you have a woman in your palace?"

Mu Chenyi glanced at him and said, "This king knows as much as you do."

Tinglan, who had dressed up specially outside, was very unwilling, but she had to go back first. She was originally going to be sold to that brothel by her family to exchange money for her eldest brother to pay off his gambling debts. She was seen by the housekeeper Lin who was going out.
