After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 116 Married Life
In the following days, Jiang Ning and Mu Jingzhao got along in such a casual way, as calm as an ordinary couple born in the countryside.

Because he leased all the land in his palace to Mu Jingzhao, and his storytelling career was abandoned, Jiang Ning seemed to be doing nothing.

At the beginning, she comforted herself that she had gone through so many ups and downs, and now it was time to take a good rest and recuperate. Isn't being able to lie down and make money now the life she once dreamed of?
So she began to try to enjoy life, eat more and sleep well every day, and went to Shuanghua Palace to chat and drink tea with Liu Jinfu whenever she was free.

These days lasted for a few days, but Jiang Ning didn't feel that life was better because of it. On the contrary, he felt empty and weak and gained several pounds one after another.

Jiang Ning, who deeply felt that such days should not continue, found a new way of pastime for himself.

Mu Jingzhao bent down to plow and weed the fields every day, while Jiang Ning squatted on the edge of the vegetable bed and stared at him idly.

"No, no, your action of pulling the weeds is wrong." Seeing that Mu Jingzhao was about to reach out to pull up a weed, Jiang Ning quickly stopped him, "Look at me, grab the root part with two fingers, and twist left and right Move it twice and push it upwards, so that we can cut the weeds and get rid of the roots, and the weeds will not grow back soon, have you learned it?"

Under the scorching sun, Mu Jingzhao's cheeks and forehead glowed red, and the broken hair on his forehead was soaked in sweat, sticky and greasy on the top of his head, looking rather embarrassed.

Now it's summer, the sun is getting more and more poisonous, and Mu Jingzhao's time to go to court is late, so he has no choice but to bite the bullet and farm under the scorching sun every day.

In just a few days, the whole person's skin was tanned to a healthy wheat color.

The long-term exposure to the sun made him sweat like rain, and a few drops of sweat dripped down the edge of his eyelashes. Mu Jingzhao wiped the sweat from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and turned to look at Jiang Ning aside.

"I see that you seem to be doing nothing all day long, why don't you help me plow the fields." The long-term thirst made his voice hoarse, and the rough voice coupled with the sharp wheat-colored arms hanging naturally by his side gave him The whole person adds a bit of rough beauty.

Originally, Mu Jingzhao specially thought of a way to send Zheliu and Li Zinian away, and he just wanted to experience the pastoral life of farming together with Jiang Ning.

Unexpectedly, because of this, he ended up in a situation where no one helped with farming and no one handed him a glass of water.

Jiang Ning was squatting under the shade of a tree, wearing a straw hat that she had woven casually in the past two days. She was fanning the wind with her hands, but there was still a little sweat dripping from her forehead.

"You didn't give me money, why should I help you?" Jiang Ning spoke confidently, and she glanced at Mu Jingzhao with a puzzled expression.

Mu Jingzhao was inexplicably choked by her words, his lips murmured for a long time but he still couldn't say a word.

If he hadn't been used to Jiang Ning talking like this, he would probably have been hurt by this woman's emotionless words and fell to the bottom of his heart.

"If you don't help, don't help. Anyway, it's not me who has nothing to do all day long and can only watch others pull weeds to pass the time."

Mu Jingzhao glanced at her, and then smirked, "Let's discuss it, or else, you return the money to me, and I will give you the land."

Jiang Ning turned pale in shock, and quickly covered his pocket, with a look of death, "Impossible, I can't return a cent of the money that went into my pocket."

The other party seemed to have expected her to say that, not only did not mean to be angry, but shrugged indifferently.

"Whatever you want, anyway, it's not me who is bored every day."

Jiang Ning glared at Mu Jingzhao fiercely, then grabbed a clod of soil and threw it towards Mu Jingzhao's leg.

Mu Jingzhao couldn't dodge, the clods of soil exploded at his trousers in an instant, forming a soil-colored dirty trace.

Mu Jingzhao frowned, and turned to look at Jiang Ning, "My dress was made by dozens of Xiuniangs from Suzhou who spent a full month of work. If I want you to pay for it—"

Seeing that the threat in Mu Jingzhao's words was getting stronger, Jiang Ning casually grabbed a clod of soil and threw it towards his trousers again.

The two earth-colored traces on Mu Jingzhao's trouser legs complement each other perfectly.

He was annoyed by Jiang Ning's appearance. Anyway, his trousers are more or less stained with mud every day when he is farming every day. It doesn't make much difference if there is more or less.

It is also impossible for him to really make Jiang Ning lose money because of this incident.

Seeing Jiang Ning's eyes drooping, his eyes glazed over, and his hands feebly fiddling with the soil, he no longer looked as radiant as before.

He turned his head to look at Jiang Ning, and secretly sighed, "Are you really that boring?"

Jiang Ning nodded her head like a slap in the face. During this period of time, she finally understood why the empresses in those Gongdou dramas insisted on fighting to the death and turned the world upside down.

Maybe it's not for fame and fortune, but because I'm too bored and have nothing to do, so I find something to pass the time.

Mu Jingzhao tilted his head to look at her, and said hesitantly, "If you are given a chance to do whatever you want, what would you like to do?"

Jiang Ning said sincerely, "Get rich."

"Can it be realized immediately?"

She thought seriously, "Be the emperor."

The corner of Mu Jingzhao's mouth twitched, "Be realistic."

"Go to the mountains and catch rabbits."

Mu Jingzhao took a deep breath, "Why are you catching rabbits?"

"I can't catch anything else."

Mu Jingzhao's eyelids twitched, "Is there anything else besides catching rabbits?"

"Climbing trees, fishing."

Mu Jingzhao held his forehead, wondering if it was because the sun was too hot, he felt a slight pain in his head.

Jiang Ning didn't seem to feel Mu Jingzhao's pain. She fiddled with the soil on the ground idly, lamenting in her heart that the soil quality is really not good, otherwise she can study the pottery firing technique by herself, and maybe she can make a fortune.

Mu Jingzhao rubbed his temples, and after a long time, he said slowly to Jiang Ning with a hoarse voice, "It just so happens that it's getting hotter day by day, let's go hunting in the suburbs of Beijing in a few days."

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, a little brilliance finally appeared in those tired eyes, "We, you and me, who else?"

Without waiting for Mu Jingzhao to answer, Jiang Ning continued to ask himself, "Do you want to come together?"

Mu Jingzhao felt a blockage in his chest, and he couldn't breathe for a while.

She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said again with a sincere tone, "If you go out hunting, it would be more interesting to wait for Commander Lin to come back. His martial arts are so strong, he can definitely hunt a lot of prey, hehehe, At that time, I can take it back and make handicrafts, and make a lot of money—"

Her expression was intoxicated, as if she saw the white money falling into her pocket again.

"What do you think, Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" She looked up, only to find that Mu Jingzhao, who was weeding, had long since disappeared.
