It's just that it's relatively close to the capital, and the nearby fields are all divided up by former vassal kings.

Zhou Cheng and the others were also gifted by the King of Huainan to have this field.

The village chief thanked Dade and bowed again. Although he didn't know who this young man was, he must have a high status if he could speak when Lord Zhou was silent.

"Uh... Those vegetables, chickens and ducks at the door are a little bit of care from the villagers. I hope Lord Zhou can accept them."

Pei Xiu said with a smile, "Thank you, Ginkgo will go and give the money to the village chief."

"No no no..."

"It's a matter of fact, you are all reluctant to eat and drink, how can we take you for nothing. The village chief should accept it and give it to other villagers!"

Involuntarily, Ginkgo took the village chief out and counted things.

Zhou Cheng looked at Taisun and said, "Sorry, the villagers originally asked the lower officials to help them, but now they have to trouble Taisun."

"Nothing, it's just a trivial matter, it's not a difficult thing, and like I just said, it's happening everywhere, and the grandfather has long known it. Now it's just a few more heavyweight vassal kings. That's it, maybe it was already in the expectations of the grandfather." Taisun said indifferently.

He nodded, he thought so too, so he agreed with one bite. The villagers didn't feel too hard, and there must be a satisfactory result.

Since this matter has been told to Taisun, we will wait to see what the arrangement will be.

The children didn't care about this very much. Seeing that his father had finished talking to his grandson, he stepped forward and said, "Let's go now, father?"

"Take a break! Do you have bows and arrows?"

"I brought it, I definitely brought it, how can I bring nothing when I come to Zhuangzi?"

Taisun frowned and said, "I didn't bring it."

He didn't expect that he would be persuaded by Xue Xi to stay in Zhuangzi, but when he thought of this, he remembered that he forgot to send a guard back to the palace to report.

Turning his head and instructing the guard, the chief of the guard stepped forward and said that he had already sent someone back to report.

That's good.

"Lend your Highness a set of my bows and arrows. You can try to open them first." After Zhou Yong finished speaking, he went into the room to get his bows, arrows, and knives.

Although Taisun is two years older than him, his arm strength is not necessarily stronger than him!

"Thank you!"

Taisun waited for a while, took his bow and arrow and tried to pull it, feeling that it was quite handy.

He is not a person who is powerless. His father and grandfather are able to lead troops in battle, and he does not dare to relax in the aspect of riding, shooting, swords and swords.

Before he entered politics, besides reading, he practiced horsemanship and martial arts every day.

"I have to go down the mountain and return to Beijing before I apply for it, and I will give it back to you at that time."

Zhou Yong smiled indifferently, "It's okay, we often go up the mountain, and it doesn't matter if we don't draw the bow once in a while."

The other two brothers also ran back to the house to get their bows and arrows. They were still young and were not allowed to take open-edged knives, only bows and arrows.

"Dad~"

After getting all the equipment in hand, they all looked at Zhou Cheng and urged silently.

"Ready? Let's go then."

Zhou Cheng was about to open his legs, but he was suddenly hugged by Mai, and she cried pitifully, "Father~"

He softened his heart and looked at Pei Xiu, "How about you go together?"

Pei Xiu shook her head. She had just made a long journey back to Beijing and arrived at Zhuangzi within two days. She was going to ask her to go up the mountain again, but she didn't want to move.

Laughing and scolding: "This girl is getting more and more refined, and she may be pretending to be pitiful recently to please people."

She stepped forward and took Mai's hand, "The road on the mountain is not easy to walk, who has time to hold your oil bottle? What if I encounter a big guy?"

"Mum~ just let me follow~ I beg you~ okay okay~ mother~ please beg you~ okay~ let me go~"

God ~ Who can stand this milky coquetry and cuteness?

Zhou Cheng's heart melted instantly, he directly lifted her up and hugged her.

"Dad~ I want to play with you~"

Pei Xiu said with a stern face: "No! Your father and the others are not going to play."

Gu Lu

"Well~ I'm going, I want to follow, mother let me go, okay~ I beg you~"

Mother's heart is like iron!

"no!"

"Mother~"

The three brothers opened their mouths at the same time and wanted to speak for Mai.

Princess Xuexi and Taisun also hesitated.

"Shut up, do you want to hug her with her?"

"Uh.."

Pei Xiu pretended to be angry and said, "I won't let you follow me this time. I'll let you go next time. Are you afraid of the big bugs on the mountain? If everyone runs away, you have short legs and will be caught by the big bugs."

Wheat put his arms around Zhou Cheng's neck: "I'm not afraid if my father is here! My father will protect me! Mother~~"

"No, it's useless to act coquettishly!"

This road does not work, change the road!

"Dad~ you help me~"

Zhou Cheng said with a doting face and helpless expression: "Dad also has to listen to your mother, our family is under your mother's control, and my father is also under your mother's control!"

Zhou Mai frowned, "Father, manly man, you can't do this!!"

Taisun and Xuexi couldn't help laughing, how could the youngest daughter of the Zhou family be so cute!

Zhou Cheng also smiled, looking at the strange girl in his arms, he was reluctant to let go.

Pei Xiu said in disbelief: "Zhou Mai, don't talk about your father, it's useless. You just finished taking a shower, right? You'll get dirty after going for a walk in the mountains, but there's no clothes for you to change, and you won't get dirty at night. let you sleep with me."

Actually a lot.

"Then I will sleep with my brothers!"

"Is it long enough? Come down."

"Hee hee~~"

She clings to her father tightly, burying her head in the crook of her neck, as if she didn't hear it, she just won't come down.

Everyone in the yard looked at the show, watching their mother and daughter fight.

Zhou Cheng couldn't help but said, "Either let her follow."

Seeing that her father helped her, Mai quickly raised her head and nodded, "Mmmm, let me follow!"

Pei Xiu glared at them, "Come down, I'll take you to collect the vegetables, look, is there a lot of dried vegetables in the yard?"

"Brothers just sunbathing, they didn't do it!" She said without even looking at it.

"Look at the corner, those should have been in the sun for a few days, and they're all dry."

She turned her head curiously and looked at ~ Pei Xiu took the opportunity to hug her, "I'll show you over there, have you done it?"

"OK?"

Seeing this, Zhou Cheng made an evacuation gesture, and everyone followed the order.

Pei Xiu deliberately turned her back to everyone, and kept talking to her to divert her attention.

She curiously touched the dried vegetables and forgot for a while.

Seeing that the general and the others had all left, Sister-in-law Li stepped forward to take the wheat, "Madam, I'm here to play with the girl, you go eat first, otherwise the dumplings will be cold."

"Well. You can touch it and let her put it away when she's done." She won't think about her father and brothers if she has work to do.

Although she followed, she could be clean for an afternoon, but her daughter was still young, Taisun and the others would go down the mountain and return to the city halfway. Without guards, how could she rest assured.

She didn't worry about asking Taisun to send it back halfway, so she should just stay at home and play.
