It was Mu Jinyan’s first time to come to the farm, and he was curious about everything. In addition, he had taken a short nap in the carriage on the way here, so when it was time for a nap, he refused to sleep any longer.

The nurse was a little anxious.

Yun Xi comforted her: "When we go back, he can still take a nap in the carriage. Let him play now. It's okay to not sleep for a day occasionally. Maybe he will be tired from playing and can go to bed early at night."

When raising children, you don’t have to be too persistent. The consequence of being too persistent is that both parties will be exhausted.

The wet nurse thought about it and stopped coaxing the baby. She said, "Madam is right. It's just a matter of getting less sleep. It's no big deal."

The sun was a little hot at noon, and Yun Xi didn't want to go out, so she took Mu Jinyan to play "Find the Pair" in the house, which is a very simple board game.

She drew several patterns, two of each, and cut them into playing card size.

The way to play is like this: all the cards are placed on the table with the pattern side facing down. Turn them over, take a look, and then put them down again. Then turn over other cards. If the pattern you turn over has been turned out before, turn over the previous pattern together and remove this pair. Continue until all the pairs are found, and the game is completed.

This game is mainly to exercise children's memory. The number of cards can be gradually increased from a small amount to a large amount.

Mu Jinyan was particularly interested in this game. Yun Xi briefly introduced the rules and he was able to play it happily. When he became proficient in the game and the time he took to complete a game became shorter and shorter, Yun Xi would increase the number of cards he could play.

During this process, Yun Xi was just a bystander and there was very little she needed to do.

After playing the board game for a while, when the sun was not very hot, Yun Xi took him for a walk around the farm.

Although it is a farm with traces of human interference everywhere, there are still patches of small wild flowers in bloom in some corners. There are chickweed, oxalis, February orchid, sedge, and sedge, with yellow, purple, blue, and white flowers. At first glance, they are inconspicuous, but if you look closely, each one is very beautiful.

Yun Xi didn't know what they were called in this time and space, and she didn't dare to teach them blindly, so she asked the steward what these grasses were. The steward explained them one by one, goose intestines, sour grass, February orchid, throat grass, and single root vegetable. It seems that some naming methods are universal. For example, February orchid got this name because it blooms in February.

Maybe in her original time and space, these things were also called these names in ancient times, but she just didn't master this knowledge.

The big and the small had a lot of fun, and Mu Jinyan didn't feel tired. In the middle, Chunmei and Qiuye came out with a tea tray. Yunxi drank two cups of tea, and Mu Jinyan drank a cup of warm water.

They played until the sun set. Mu Xuan, who was watching the farmhand working, had already finished his work and urged him to return.

"Sister-in-law, if you don't go back soon, it will be dark. The city gates will be closed."

"understood."

A few people came in a mighty procession, and left in a mighty procession. As soon as they entered the city, they ran into Mu Sheng who came on horseback to pick them up.

"uncle."

When Yun Xi heard the coachman's voice, she lifted the curtain and looked outside, and her eyes met with Mu Sheng who was riding on a horse.

"How did you come?"

Yun Xi asked.

"It's so late, I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go on the road."

I am also afraid that if I come back too late, the city gate will be closed and you won't be able to get in. If he comes, he can help open the city gate.

Mu Xuan leaned out of the carriage at the back and said, "Brother, I'm here, there's nothing unsafe about it."

Mu Sheng ignored him, turned his horse around, and rode back side by side with Yun Xi's carriage.
