Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

Chapter 469: Wandering around, bitter and astringent persimmon

"But this can't tell me if I have any problems, why don't we get to know me better?" Lu Huaijin's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at her with a smirk, then kissed her again, their lips pressed together for a long time, and when they felt the atmosphere was a little out of control, Yao Qingnian pushed him away and surrendered, "No problem, no problem, you're the best, okay."

"Then are you still looking for a gigolo?" He looked at Yao Qingnian with burning eyes like a hungry wolf.

"I won't look for it anymore." Yao Qingnian admitted defeat.

"That's what you said." Lu Huaijin then showed a satisfied look.

"Yes, I said it." Yao Qingnian nodded and snuggled in his arms with a blushing face.

"Okay, don't move, go to sleep." Lu Huaijin gently tucked her hair behind her ears, then closed his eyes. The only sound left in her ears was his even breathing, and Yao Qingnian fell asleep unknowingly.

The next day, when she woke up, there was no one around her. She stretched, then got up, opened the door and walked out. Seeing the housekeeper standing at the door, she realized that she had come out of Lu Huaijin's room. She smiled awkwardly and greeted the housekeeper: "Uncle You, good morning!"

"Morning, Miss Shen. The Pavilion Master asked me to tell you that he has some important matters to deal with today and cannot return to the capital for the time being. He asked you to stay at the manor for one more day and leave tomorrow."

"Okay, I understand." Yao Qingnian nodded.

"Miss, please have breakfast here. After breakfast, I will have someone take you for a walk around the area. The scenery on the farm is pretty nice." The butler said respectfully.

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble the housekeeper." Yao Qingnian was sitting in the yard eating breakfast. Not long after, a maid was brought into the yard.

"Hello, young lady. My name is Shi Liu." The little maid came over and bowed politely. She looked to be about eleven or twelve years old, lively and clever. She did not flinch at all when she saw Yao Qingnian, and spoke openly, which made people happy.

"Hello, Shi Liu. You don't need to be polite here." Yao Qingnian asked her to get up. He liked this child very much. He grabbed a handful of candy from the space and gave it to her, asking her to accept it.

"Miss, I can't take your things." Pomegranate waved her hand.

"It's not something expensive, just some candy, take it! I like straightforward girls."

Candy is not expensive! After hearing what she said, Shi Liu did not hesitate any more. After taking the candy, she thanked her happily: "Thank you, Miss."

"Have you had breakfast?" Yao Qingnian watched her take the candy and put it carefully into her pocket. Her thin figure made people feel a little distressed.

"I've eaten at home. My mother said a beautiful young lady has come to the farm and will stay here for a day. She was worried that you would be bored, so she asked me to take you around the farm."

"Your mouth is already so sweet even before you've had any candy. Haha, well, wait until I have breakfast before taking me out for a walk."

"Okay, miss." She nodded and said, then waited quietly by the side for Yao Qingnian.

The housekeeper said that she was the child of a tenant farmer on the farm and had grown up on the farm. She was very familiar with the farm, so today she would take Yao Qingnian to stroll around the farm.

After breakfast, the two came out of Lu Huaijin's yard. Not far away, there was a fierce gaze staring at her figure. This person was none other than Wan Mei who was driven out last night. She hadn't slept all night, and the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. So she got up early in the morning and made breakfast to send to Lu Huaijin's yard. Who would have thought that she was told that the master had gone out. She had to prepare to leave dejectedly, but she heard laughter coming from the yard. After asking around, she found out that the girl who was brought back by the Pavilion Master last night was in there.

Wan Mei was immediately furious. Didn't she say that she was not familiar with her master? How could she be in her master's yard so early in the morning? She returned to the yard where Yao Qingnian lived last night. After asking, she found out that she was not in her own yard at all last night. This meant that she spent the night in her master's yard! She cursed in her heart, what a shameless bitch!

Led by Shi Liu, Yao Qingnian strolled around the village. As soon as they walked out, a golden rice field came into view. Unknowingly, autumn had arrived. At this time, the villagers of Taoxi Village should be busy with the autumn harvest.

Not far away, there was a vegetable field with some seasonal vegetables, including radishes, cabbages, and even sweet potatoes. Yao Qingnian suddenly missed looking at the sweet potatoes, so he asked Shi Liu: "Can you dig some of these sweet potatoes and roast them for later?"

"Of course you can. You are the guest of the Pavilion Master. You can have anything you want in the farm." Shi Liu immediately ran to find a hoe and a basket. Yao Qingnian also wanted to dig, so two figures in the field happily started digging sweet potatoes.

"Oh, what a pity that such a big sweet potato was rotten by me." Yao Qingnian said with heartache as he held up the rotten sweet potato. He then looked at the pomegranates and found that none of them were rotten after he dug them out.

"Miss, it's okay. These sweet potatoes can be eaten after being dug and roasted. Why don't you go and take a rest aside and I'll do it." Shi Liu said with a smile, and then started working quickly. After a while, he had dug a basket full of sweet potatoes.

After digging the sweet potatoes, Shi Liu happily carried the basket and asked Yao Qingnian to follow her. She would stop from time to time and point at the new things on the roadside to introduce them to Yao Qingnian.

"Miss, look at the small river here. The water is so cool. In summer, we often come here to catch fish." Pomegranate said with a smile, then jumped into the water and began to wash sweet potatoes.

"The water is very clean." She also went into the river, washed the mud off her hands, and then started washing the sweet potatoes together.

"People in the village all come here to fetch water to drink!"

After washing the sweet potatoes, Pomegranate took her to the persimmon forest and picked a basket of crisp persimmons. Looking at the fresh persimmons, Yao Qingnian couldn't help but pick one up and put it in her mouth and took a bite. Pomegranate had no time to stop her.

"This... this persimmon is too bitter!" Yao Qingnian felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

"Miss, this crisp persimmon is not delicious when it is just picked. You have to take it back and soak it in cold boiled water for a few days to remove the bitterness before you can eat it." Pomegranate reminded.

Oh, yes, how could I have forgotten about this? Yao Qingnian took out some water to rinse his mouth. After spending a long time, he finally got rid of the bitter taste.

Then they went to the vegetable garden to pick some radishes, and then they prepared to go back happily.

"Miss, let's go back."

"and many more."

"What's wrong?" Pomegranate looked at her puzzledly.

"We are going to roast sweet potatoes, why go back? Let's roast them directly in the field. That way the sweet potatoes will be more fragrant."

"Roasting in the field?"
