My husband in farming

There is still more than a month before the Chinese New Year, and the vegetables in Xiao Xiao's greenhouse are all ripe and ready to be harvested.

Xiao Xiao looked at Han Ping beamingly and asked, "When will we send these vegetables to Grandpa? Or should Grandpa send someone to pick them up?"

Han Ping looked at Xiao Xiao, thought for a while and asked seriously: "Xiao'er, would you like to go with me to your grandfather's house?"

Xiao Xiao blinked, "Are you going to send it to grandpa in person?"

Han Ping nodded.He still needs to re-discuss with his grandfather about the whereabouts of this batch of vegetables, but because the details have not yet been finalized, he did not tell Xiao Xiao the detailed plan, but said, "We delivered vegetables to grandpa a year ago, so we will drop by Pay a visit to them. It will save the road from being slippery in snowy weather in the next year."

"Yeah." In his previous life, Xiao Xiao basically had no experience with the ways of the world, so he didn't realize the loopholes in Han Ping's words. The road will be slippery in snowy days after the year, so is it not slippery now?

Seeing that Xiao Xiao agreed, Han Ping lowered his head and coaxed him, "Tell my mother-in-law, we will go this way, no matter what, it will take more than a month, and it will be almost New Year's when we come back."

"Okay." Xiao Xiao said while running out to find the two mothers-in-law.

Han Ping wrote a letter in the house, then went out to find Xiao Zhang, and asked him to send it to the post station and mail it to his grandfather.

Although Han Ping and Xiao Xiao left in a hurry, they brought a lot of things.A small part of the vegetables that Xiao Xiao left at home was used for seeds, and he planned to continue planting them next year.The other part is to be kept at home for Chinese New Year.After that, all the rest were packed up and prepared to be taken to grandpa.Includes a dozen or so small jars for peppers.Han Ping also took away the hot pot ordered by Xiao Xiao.

In such a cold day, it was impossible for Han Ping to go to Guanyang City with his own donkey on a draft cart.So Han Ping went to Qushui County with Xiao Zhang and bought a carriage.Because all new carriages were custom-made, Han Ping could only buy a second-hand one.After returning to the village, Shen Wei stayed up all night to make a set of ironware, and added rigid bones to the base of the carriage shaft.The carriage shed was also reinforced by Han Ping, and some recesses were deliberately dug in the middle of the carriage to place a small stove.

Han Ping originally didn't intend to take Xiao Xiao on this trip, although he knew that if he asked, Xiao Xiao would definitely agree to obediently wait for him at home.But these vegetables were grown by Xiao Xiao after all, even if Xiao Xiao told him that the whereabouts of these things was up to him, Han Ping still wanted to let Xiao Xiao know his plan.He didn't want to hide it from Xiao Xiao.What's more, he didn't want Xiao Xiao to worry anymore like he did when he went to Pingnan City alone.Moreover, he also wanted everyone in his grandfather's family to see his husband.So although it was a bit troublesome, Han Ping decided to take Xiao Xiao with him.

When the two mothers-in-law knew that the young master was going to take Brother Xiao with him, they subconsciously wanted to stop them, but the two of them had been in the Han residence for such a long time, and they knew the young master's uncompromising temperament.Han Ping usually looks silent, but in fact he is much more difficult to get along with than Xiao Xiao.Xiao Xiao himself has no class concept, and everyone in the house is just like ordinary people, without the arrogance of the master's family at all.Good-natured and approachable.Even if some words went too far, Xiao Xiao just smiled and didn't take it seriously.But Han Ping is obviously not like this.For Xiao Xiao's sake, Han Ping didn't care about small matters with them, but once something happened to Xiao Xiao, it would be useless for anyone to say more.So the two mothers-in-law could only sigh, and spread out the new quilts in the car, and even replaced the car curtains with new ones.I tried my best to make the carriage warmer, for fear of freezing the little brother at home.

Han Ping bought a carriage and two horses at the post station.Wang Zhen's horse was the only one in Zucchini Village, and Han Ping didn't even think about borrowing it because of the cold weather.

When everyone packed up and Han Ping and the two were ready to leave, another five days had passed.From the outside, the carriage still looks ordinary and not old, but the inside of the carriage is surrounded by warm quilts.The mother-in-laws prepared four or five packs of small charcoal fires and put them aside, saving the small stove for Xiao Xiao to keep warm and boil water.

Xiao Xiao and Han Ping traveled quietly this time, except for the people at home who saw them off, no one in Zucchini Village knew about it.Han Ping didn't care, and after arranging what the family should do, he took Xiao Xiao and set off in a carriage.

Because the vegetables and the small jars of peppers took up most of the space in the carriage, Xiao Xiao couldn't straighten his legs, so he could only sit in the carriage with his legs bent or crossed.In the recessed place in the middle, Han Ping set up a small warming table. The legs of the warming table were fixed on the carriage, and a small stove was placed underneath.Xiao Xiao was hugging Mrs. Tang, wrapped in a thick cotton coat, and huddled in front of the small warming table, eating shortbread.

The shortbread was bought by Han Ping when he went to the post station to buy a carriage, and there were other small snacks of various flavors, all the bits and pieces were placed on the carriage, in case Xiao Xiao would get hungry and thirsty on the way.

Guanyang City is farther than Pingnan City, and it takes two people to drive a horse-drawn carriage to get there in about seven or eight days.Han Ping was afraid that Xiao Xiao would be tired along the way, as long as he entered the county town, no matter how big or small, no matter whether it was sooner or later, Han Ping would stop and rest for one night before starting the next day, but when they arrived at the He Mansion, the two of them were later than expected For four or five days.

Guanyang City is a bigger city than Pingnan City, not to mention the stricter procedures for entering the city, and there are more common people in the city.As the New Year approached, the streets and alleys in Guanyang City were crowded with people.Sitting in front of the carriage, Xiao Xiao looked at Han Ping, who was standing in line with his horse and waiting to pay the entry fee, and looked over the officers and soldiers guarding the city to the crowd in front. Many people were queuing in front of the city gate. There were those with horse-drawn carts, those with donkey carts, and those with their luggage pulling a whole family.Xiao Xiao took a look, then got back into the carriage.

After completing the formalities for entering the city, Han Ping led the carriage into Guanyang City.Just after passing the city gate, a middle-aged man greeted him.The man was wearing a cotton blue gown and a fur hat on his head. The sides of the hat extended down like ears, and they were tied together at the middle-aged man's chin with a rope, covering the middle-aged man's ears and face. Wrap tightly.

The middle-aged man stepped forward and saluted Han Ping, "But Han Ping, Young Master Han?"

Han Ping nodded.

The middle-aged man smiled reassuringly when he saw this, "Hello, Young Master Han, I am He Ruyi, the steward of the He Mansion. A few days ago, Master He was talking about Young Master Han at home, and seeing that Young Master Han hadn't come yet, he dispatched a daily The members of He's family came to guard the city gate, afraid that Young Master Han would be missed."

There are a total of three gates in Guanyang City. Although Master He knew that Han Ping must go through the west gate without accident, but just in case, the remaining two gates also sent servants to guard them every day.

"I'm troubling Grandpa." Han Ping nodded and motioned to He Ruyi.

"No trouble, no trouble. The master is counting the days and looking forward to the arrival of Young Master Han." After He Ruyi finished speaking, he looked up and saw his little brother sitting in the carriage, staring at him with a pair of big round eyes.He Ruyi is worthy of being the steward of the He family. Seeing Xiao Xiao staring at him with serious interest, he was not at all uncomfortable. Instead, he bowed to Xiao Xiao and said, "This is Mrs. Han, the master is looking forward to the two That's it. The reception banquet in the mansion is ready, let's go back now."

A little boy who followed He Ruyi, after He Ruyi finished the ceremony, was sent by He Ruyi to run back to the house to inform the masters.

Han Ping nodded, followed behind He Ruyi, and walked towards He's residence.

Xiao Xiao looked around with great interest at the crowd in Guanyang City.The hustle and bustle is so lively, and the shops and restaurants are full of people.There are also many hawkers who set up stalls to buy things on the street.The main road of Guanyang City is more than eight feet wider than that of Pingnan City. Even if Xiao Xiao is sitting in a carriage, it will not affect the people walking on the road.

After the few people had left for less than a cup of tea, they arrived at the door of the He residence.

He's Mansion is one of the largest families in Guanyang City, with a towering and majestic gate.The entire street was taken up by the He family.The end is full of pride.

He Ruyi took the two of them out of He Mansion by the side door and entered the mansion.

"Master is waiting for the two of you in the front hall, Young Master Han, Madam Han please come to my side." He Ruyi led the two of them.Han Ping handed the reins in his hand to the servant beside him, and after carrying Xiao Xiao off the carriage, he followed He Ruyi towards the front hall.

Before reaching the front hall, Xiao Xiao was already shocked by the exquisite and luxurious scene in the He Mansion.The first sight is a scene of rime covered in silver. After bypassing the rime, there are clusters of blooming flowers on both sides of the corridor.On the periphery, there are red lanterns hanging every other step.There is a small garden on the outside of the corridor. Not only is the water in the lake not frozen, but a few big red carp can be seen inside.

He Ruyi came to the front hall of He Mansion with Xiao Xiao and Xiao Xiao, who were shocked and dazed, and invited them into the room after the notification.

"Master, Young Master Han and Mrs. Han are here."

After Xiao Xiao entered the room, before he had time to look around, he saw that the person sitting in the main seat was Han Ping's grandfather, He Pengao.Seeing that the two people finally came, He Pengao quickly raised his hand to greet them to sit down.

"Boy Han, you guys are here. Come quickly and sit next to me." He Pengao said while pushing his son down beside him, "Sit on the side and go up."

Sitting next to He Pengao was He Pengao's eldest son and Han Ping's uncle He Tianxin who went to Zucchini Village that day.When He Tianxin heard his father's words, he stood up helplessly and shook his head, making room for Han Ping and his wife, "I'll fall out of favor right away when you come here."

Xiao Xiao blushed, feeling a little embarrassed, but Han Ping pulled him to salute his grandfather, and sat down without notice.

"No, uncle, you have never been favored." Han Ping did not forget to reply after sitting down.

Immediately he was overconfident about He Tian, ​​He Pengao laughed and said yes.

Xiao Xiao watched Han Ping fight and quarrel with his grandfather and uncle without notice, and no one blamed them for their lack of manners, so he knew that Han Ping really regarded his grandfather's family as his own.

After waiting for He Tianxin to say a few words to Han Ping, He Pengao said to Xiao Xiao, "Come on, brother Xiao, you have seen your first uncle and second uncle, this is your third uncle, He Tianci. "He Pengao pointed to the man sitting in the last seat.The outline of the man is similar to He Pengao, but much younger than He Tiannuo, and looks about the same age as Han Ping.

He Tianci kept silent all this time, and only looked at Xiao Xiao secretly and curiously. At this time, he was finally called, and quickly took out a box from his arms and handed it to Xiao Xiao: "Meeting ceremony. The eldest brother and the second brother gave it to you. You can't miss me."

Xiao Xiao took what the young man handed over, thanked him with a smile, and took it.
