Nan Yan pulled back the girl who was about to stretch her whole body out.

"Don't stick your head out too much, or you'll fall over. When we get to the farm, mother will take you to the woods to play and pick wild flowers, okay?"

"Okay, mother."

Little Lezhi sat down obediently, but soon she could no longer sit still. She lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside, but this time she did not stick her head out.

When we arrived at the farm, the steward had already asked people to take the potatoes out of the cellar.

Nan Yan taught the people who were waiting to cut potato seeds how to cut potato seeds.

It’s very simple and you’ll learn it once you see it.

The person cutting the seeds sat down and began to cut the seeds with swift hands and feet. He became more and more skilled and his movements gradually became faster.

"Just cut it and plant it like this?" Shang Yue asked in shock.

"Well, that's it." Nan Yan smiled and said, "I've told you before, potatoes are easy to grow, have strong adaptability, and are drought-resistant."

He thought growing potatoes was easy, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

If potatoes are really as good as Yan'er said, then within a few years, potatoes will be grown everywhere in Dashang, even in the arid areas of the northwest.

When he thought of this possibility, the man's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Nan Yan with infinite affection.

Nan Yan watched for a while and saw that the man cutting the seeds was becoming more and more skilled. Just as she turned around to speak, she met the man's eyes that were full of tenderness.

Her heart burned and she began to feel a little embarrassed.

It's strange that they are an old couple, but they are still shy.

Really, why is he looking at her like that?

She tried to suppress her nervousness and said a little uncomfortably, "Bring back the cakes and candy men you asked people to buy. I'll take Yu'er and Zhizhi to eat them."

"Mother, please take us to eat soon." Xiao Lezhi's anxious voice gave Nan Yan a good way out.

"Let's go! Little greedy cat."

Nan Yan took the two children away.

Shang Yue stared at her back, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and then he followed behind her with big strides.

The cakes and candy figures the guards bought were different from what the two children had eaten in the palace, and they ate them with gusto.

After eating the cakes and candies, they were still busy, one of them holding Nan Yan and the other holding Shang Yue.

"Father, Emperor, Mother, let's go take a look outside the manor!"

"Mother, you said you would take me to pick wild flowers. Let's go!"

They had finally managed to leave the palace, and they didn't want to waste any time.

Nan Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at the man, asking again, "Are you going or not?"

After seeing Shang Yue nod, she said to the two children, "Let's go! I'll take you out to play."

In fact, after staying in the palace for so long and finally getting out, she also wanted to walk around and get some fresh air.

The two took the children to the bamboo forest behind the villa.

"Wow! There are so many bamboo shoots here." Little Lezhi let go of Nanyan's hand and ran over excitedly, "Father, mother, queen, brother, come and see, there are so many bamboo shoots!"

Xiao Leyu also let go of Shang Yue's hand and ran over, squatting next to his sister with a surprised look on his face, "There are really a lot of bamboo shoots."

There is also a bamboo forest in the palace.

A few days ago, when Nan Yan took them for a walk in the bamboo forest, they happened to see some bamboo shoots. She asked the palace servants to dig them up and made a few dishes under her guidance.

The two children loved to eat it at the time, so they were excited to see so many bamboo shoots.

Xiao Lezhi turned around, looked at Nan Yan expectantly and said, "Mother, can we dig up all these bamboo shoots and eat them?"

What is not available in the palace? You can eat it for fun when you first eat it, and it tastes good if you eat it occasionally, but if you eat it every day, you will probably get tired of it soon.

What's more, with so many bamboo shoots dug up, and without a refrigerator, they will soon go stale.

Nan Yan did not refuse directly, but discussed it with her.

"If we dig them all up, they won't be fresh anymore. So just dig a few. If you want to eat them in the future, can you ask someone to come here and dig them up again?"

Little Lezhi stood there thinking.

Nan Yan knew that she was a very obedient child who understood reason, so she waited for her to think about it slowly.

"Okay, I'll listen to mother, but I still want to dig some more and send some to my grandparents and my cousin."

"My Zhizhi actually remembered to give it to her grandfather, she is so filial." She praised, "Okay, then dig more.

"Mother, I want to dig it myself today."

Nan Yan looked at the little girl's white, tender and chubby hands, raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm afraid you can't dig it yourself."

Those little hands probably can’t even hold a hoe.

Little Lezhi stretched out her hands and looked at it, wishing that her hands would immediately grow as big as her father's.

Oh, father!

The little girl's eyes lit up and she turned her gaze to Shang Yue, who's heart instinctively jumped.

"Then Father dug."

Sure enough, he knew when the little girl looked at him like that, he was ready to do something.

Seeing Shang Yue with a stunned look on his face, Nan Yan covered her mouth and laughed secretly, what a disappointing little guy!

His father had held a pen and a sword in his life, but never a hoe.

Seeing Shang Yue standing there without saying anything, Xiao Lezhi asked in a slightly puzzled voice, "Father, can't you dig it out either?"

Normally, the emperor could pick her up together with her brother. If even the emperor couldn't dig them out, wouldn't it be very difficult to dig them out?

At this time, the guards at the side stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please let me down."

Shang Yue waved his hand, glanced at the snickering Nan Yan, and said helplessly: "No need, bring the hoe over."

He had never dug anything before, so why not give it a try? Moreover, this was his daughter's request, so he had to do it.

The guard did not dare to disobey and ran back to the farm to get a hoe and gave it to Shang Yue.

Looking at the emperor holding a hoe and preparing to take action, the guards and palace maids beside him felt a little emotional.

There are probably not many people in this world who can make the emperor do this kind of work.

However, the emperor is worthy of being the emperor. An ordinary hoe in his hand looks like a precious weapon.

Shang Yue took a hoe, found a bamboo shoot, raised the hoe, brought it down, and directly dug off the tip of the bamboo shoot.

He was a little dumbfounded.

Little Lezhi pouted and said, "Father, how did you dig it up?"

Shang Yue coughed awkwardly, "Ahem! Father was too strong just now, the next one won't be dug through."

"Then father, please use less strength and dig well."

Little Lezhi was standing next to them like a little supervisor.

He interrupted several of them in a row, and his expression became more and more embarrassed, while Xiao Lezhi's expression became more and more serious.

"Father, are you digging well?"

"Father is digging hard, but he hasn't fully mastered his strength yet."

It was a warm and comfortable day, with an occasional breeze and a bit of coolness, but Shang Yue felt himself sweating.

They say practice makes perfect, and the same goes for digging bamboo shoots.

Later he found the trick and dug more than a dozen bamboo shoots in succession.

"Wow! Father, you are digging well now!"

"Not a single one of them is broken. Father is really amazing."

Listening to the two children's praise, Shang Yue felt that his face was saved. The corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up, and his expression was quite proud.

I'm afraid he has never been so proud even when the court officials praised him for his outstanding political achievements.

Nan Yan felt that he was childish, cute and lively.
