Chapter 199 Here Comes
The wheat in the wheat field gradually began to turn from green to yellow, and the promised private visit finally came.

It was a rainy spring day, and not long after the rain stopped, a few fine horses and a carriage with a low-key exterior and a luxurious interior got off the official road, drove into Lianxi Village, and came to Xiao'er's house.

The fourth rank of Yuqian waited for Wei with a knife. Huang Wei jumped off his horse and knocked on the door.

"Excuse me, who is your honored guest?" Mr. Xie, the concierge, opened a small opening on the door and asked politely.

"We came here from the imperial capital to find Marquis Shengping." Huang Wei replied, but did not say who it was.

"Please wait a moment, the little one will report it now." Father Xie hurried to report after hearing this.

The emperor also got off the carriage at this time, Shangguan Xuanyi, Shangguan Xuanhao, Di Shaowei, the first and second sons of the admiral's mansion, Huang Wei and others naturally got off the horse and stood behind the emperor to wait.

When Xiaoerzhong Liu heard the porter's report, she hurried out to meet her.

Shen Chengyao went to the field again today. There has been a lot of rain in the past few days, and the wheat is in the mature stage. He is worried about the wheat in the field. Before dawn, he went to the field with his family's long-term laborer to drain the wheat field.

Every time it rained in the past few days, a wrinkle appeared on Shen Chengyao's forehead. He was worried that if the rain continued, the wheat would germinate in the field before it was harvested.

Although Xiao'er always said that it has been raining for so many days, tomorrow will be sunny, don't worry.

But how can Shen Chengyao rest assured.

A villager saw Shen Chengyao in the field and said, "Brother Chengyao, several people came to your house, all riding horses, and there is also a carriage!"

After hearing this, Shen Chengyao didn't even care about his shoes, he forgot to put down his trousers, and ran home with muddy feet.

At this moment, Mrs. Liu happened to come out with her three daughters to welcome them, and they were stopped by the emperor just as they were about to salute:
"Mrs. Shen, you don't need to be too polite. When you are away from home, these tedious etiquettes will be avoided. Just treat me as a friend who comes to your house." The emperor stretched out to stop him.

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu bowed down with only her three daughters, and then welcomed the group of people into the house.

The emperor didn't want to reveal his identity when he said this, but they didn't dare to do it without saying that there was no need to give a big ceremony, so they had to show their appearance at the beginning.

This was what Xiao'er had agreed with Liu Shi and the others in advance.

Xiao'er made tea herself and served it to everyone.

Shen Chengyao ran in at this time, just about to salute, the emperor also stopped him, and then saw Shen Chengyao's embarrassed look and asked: "There is no need to be so polite, but, Marquis Shengping, did you fall into a mud pit?"

Only then did Shen Chengyao realize that his feet were covered in mud, and his trousers were rolled up to his calves.This is an imperial disgrace!

"Emperor..." Shen Chengyao bowed and bowed, pleading guilty.

"Just call me Lord Shangguan." The emperor stretched out his hand to stop him.

The double surname of Shangguan was the common surname in the Minze Dynasty, and many common people also took the double surname of Shangguan, and the emperor also used his real surname with confidence.

"Yes, Lord Shangguan, Xiaguan was draining the wheat fields just now. Hearing that there were visitors at home, he rushed back and forgot to tidy up. I hope Lord Shangguan will forgive me!"

"I didn't expect the Marquis Shengping to go to the fields in person. It really impressed me! Well, it's not a crime. You don't need forgiveness. You'd better go and wash it!" The emperor waved his hand and told him to step back.

To be honest, the emperor felt very cordial to see such a real picture.

"Master Shangguan must be tired after driving for so many days. Why don't we take a break and we'll bring you something to eat?" Xiao'er said seeing that they were all panda-eyed.

The emperor hadn't moved like this for a long time, so he nodded because he was too tired.

Xiao'er took them to the villa on the top of the mountain.

The hilltop villa has three floors, and each floor is designed with four bedrooms, two living rooms and two balconies.

In order to welcome the arrival of the emperor, Xiao'er spent a lot of thought on the arrangement.

The balcony of this villa is ingeniously planted a lot of flowers of various colors,
From a distance, it looks like a flower house, warm and beautiful but not messy.

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, many medicinal materials on the mountain are also blooming.In addition, Xiao'er also added some different colors of winter jasmine flowers to embellish, and the whole mountain looked so beautiful.

In addition to the mountain full of fruit trees next door, peach blossoms, pear blossoms, cherry blossoms, and apricot blossoms are not exhausted at this time. Among the stars and green leaves, there are a little pink, white, red, and the fragrance of flowers is far away, which makes people feel refreshed.

It was the first time for the emperor to see such a house, and he liked it very much, feeling full of poetic and picturesque charm.

The emperor thought to himself, these are not expensive flowers, but they are arranged so that people can't take their eyes off them!

This is probably like the Shengpinghou family, who were not born in a noble family, but they were not inferior to the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

When Shangguan Xuanyi came last year, it was still just sorted out.

A year has passed, and this place has become like a fairyland.

"Xiao'er girl, your hands really have the ability to turn decay into magic." Di Shao looked all the way and finally couldn't help but praise.

"Oh? How do you say that?" the emperor asked curiously.

"Master, these were wastelands before, and these two mountains were also barren mountains, with many rocks, weeds, and shrubs. They sorted it out and planted these things after Shengping last year. Looking at the growth momentum of these crops now, where are they? If it is grown in wasteland, it is estimated that good land is no more than this, or good land cannot be grown in this way." Di Shaowei hurriedly replied.

"Hou Shengping is really a good farmer." The emperor praised him again.

"Don't dare to do it, it's just a coincidence." Shen Chengyao also felt a little guilty, there was a reason for this, but he couldn't say it.

The emperor asked what these were all the way up the mountain.

Shen Chengyao answered all of them.

Shangguan Xuanhao was the most surprised. Seeing the herbs Xiao'er planted in the wasteland and on the mountain, his eyes widened.

It turns out that this girl wasn't joking last time, her family really has all those herbs.

"Girl, where did you find these herbs?"

"Some are in the mountains, some are bought, and some are given by others."

"Girl, I'll just find you when I'm short of medicinal materials, so I don't have to run to the deep mountains and wild forests anymore!"

"Okay!" Xiaoer replied with a smile.

"I haven't even thanked Marquis Shengping for giving me such a good medicine, which made me stand up again, no different from a normal person." The prince of the admiral's mansion hurriedly said.

"That's as it should be."

At that time, in order not to marry him, and to thank them for their willingness not to pursue him, he could only save his leg.

A group of people finally boarded the villa on the top of the mountain, looking at the misty Wushen Mountain in the distance, dreamlike waterfalls, lakes and mountains, gurgling streams, beautiful and charming.

If we talk about the beauty created by man-made just now, it is so beautiful!Then this natural beauty is beyond words!

"House of Shengping, your house is well built! I want to live forever," the emperor joked.

"Master Shangguan is full of praise, and the next official welcomes you very much!" Shen Chengyao replied.
