Chapter 479 Leisurely

As for Jiang Rong'an from the Ministry of Industry, before the stool was warmed up, he was summoned to the early court by an oral order from the emperor.

On the way, Jiang Rong'an had no choice but to quickly organize the words in his mind and imagine some possible countermeasures to make things difficult.

When he arrived at the court hall, Jiang Rong'an saw Yi Shangshu blinked at him and nodded slightly, but unfortunately he didn't understand what the other party wanted to express.

After saluting, Jiang Rong'an was asked to tell the whole story about what happened in Xiakeng County.This was something he had already prepared, so there was no pressure. Later, some officials asked him sharply whether he could ensure the long-term and regional nature of the prescription.

Regarding this question, Jiang Rong'an said that he couldn't be 100% sure, after all, that kind of thing is likely to mutate, and if it really mutates, he really can't do anything about it.

Subsequent questions became more acute one by one, such as whether the formula potion used in the field would reduce the fertility of the soil, whether it would allow insects to breed, and so on.

Regarding these problems, Jiang Rongan and Gu Qingya have actually considered it. The possibility of insect breeding is the smallest. As for the reduction of soil fertility, isn't there a fertilizer formula?

So Jiang Rongan answered each question beautifully, but he was also puzzled in his heart, who was targeting him?

But after listening to it, he roughly understood that it was actually nothing more than a competition for credit, and he was worried that Jiang Rong'an's achievements would threaten the position of some people. For this reason, he naturally had to find some reasons to cut some of these credits.

Regarding this, Jiang Rongan was also speechless in his heart. Everyone has different ideas, after all, they are not the same.

So the final result was that he didn't get any promotion in position, but he was rewarded a lot in real terms. He even got a farm outside the capital city, and some silver taels of antique calligraphy and paintings. His net worth increased a lot.

Back at the Ministry of Industry, Yi Shangshu took Jiang Rong'an to a secret talk, made a cup of tea, and the two chatted slowly, "It took half a year for such a credit, but you only got some money in the end, are you aggrieved?"

Yi Shangshu answered without waiting for Jiang Rongan to say, "But you don't look angry at all. In fact, it's not all because of my position."

Jiang Rong'an just smiled, took a small sip of tea, tasted the bitterness in the mouth, and then returned the sweetness on the tip of his tongue. He took these things lightly, so naturally he wouldn't feel aggrieved.

"The emperor knows what is going on with me, God knows, so why am I angry?" Jiang Rongan said with a smile, "The credit that belongs to me has long been credited."

Yi Shangshu was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and laughed, "Okay, okay, you are so open-minded, even if you stay in this position all your life, you must be famous far and wide."

"You have worked hard for several months, and this minister specially allows you to take half a month's vacation. See you after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Without doing anything, Jiang Rong'an naturally wished for it. Is there anything better than being able to stay at home with his wife and children?
When Jiang Rong'an got home, he informed Gu Qingya of the news. Seeing that she was busy making the spring roll preparations, he simply rolled up his sleeves to help.

"Is there going to be a banquet in the Mid-Autumn Palace this year?" Gu Qingya squinted her eyes, and unexpectedly let her buy a lot of white radishes, so she filed them into shreds to make pickled radishes. The children also like this taste.

"There's no news so far, so it's obviously not going to happen." Jiang Rong'an and Gu Qingya finished those things, dried their hands and went back to the front hall, made tea and sat down. During the rare leisure time, the two decided to play a game of chess.

Gu Qingya nodded, she couldn't help but think of the banquet she attended back then, it was really uncomfortable, it was a waste of time and money for sure, it would be best to cancel it.

"It works from top to bottom, there are few banquets like this in the palace, and the folks naturally have less luxury." Even if there are such things among the folks, they dare not come blatantly. The emperor has done well.

"There must be a reason for this, but I guess, the emperor probably wants to save the money and use it elsewhere. There were disasters in the south last year and this year. If the capital does something big, it will hurt the hearts of the people."

Gu Qingya felt that what Jiang Rongan said was quite reasonable, "Anyway, I don't like that kind of banquet, it's just a place for comparison."

"In this way, the lady's circle will be smaller."

"Then what's the matter, does Husband Xi need my friendship with other wives to gain some connections or convenience?" Gu Qingya asked back, a powerful person would not need such external force.

"My lady is right, I'm convinced by my husband." Jiang Rong'an said with a smile, raised his hand and dropped another son.

On the second day, Guoguo and Mianmian came to school early, gathered around the porch outside the kitchen, watching the smooth movements of Gu Qingya and Aunt Ting's hands, smelling the fragrance, couldn't help swallowing.

Feifei is greedy, and really wants to take one to make some food to satisfy his hunger, but since Guoguo and Nianmian are available, he dare not go, scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously.

Seeing this, Gu Qingya couldn't help laughing and said: "Go and wash your hands, you guys try to get it too, everyone makes it by themselves and eats it."

Feifei was the most active in doing things like this, and immediately ran to wash his hands with a cheer, followed by Guoguo and Mianmian, who were actually looking forward to it.

Gu Qingya pointed to the children one by one, seeing Shuangshuang and Jiangjiang standing beside her, she was also very envious, she leaned over and touched their faces, "Your hands are too tender, they will burn , a little older, mother will let you do it, okay?"

"Okay." The sisters said in unison.Shuangshuang stared at Feifei's movements, "Second brother, it's burnt."

When Feifei saw it, he hurriedly used a shovel to shovel it, but it broke with too much force.Aunt Ting smiled from the side, "Young master, just let me come."

Aunt Ting put the failed one aside, and watched Feifei roll the dough again. Her hand dexterously turned to the side. With a flick of her wrist, the spring roll skin was turned over, and then she shoveled the dough. Transfer to a plate aside.

Seeing this, Feifei became interested, "Mother-in-law, that's it. Next time, I will make twenty more."

Guoguo and Mianmian watched quietly, paying attention to the movements of Aunt Ting's hands. It felt like butterflies were dancing all the time, very agile.

When it was Guoguo and Mianmian's turn, they were much more stable than Feifei. They took one step at a time, very steady, thicker than Auntie Ting's, but they still looked good.

Sitting around the stove, after a while, the children started sweating. Gu Qingya asked them to watch from the side, and took over by herself.

At this time, Aunt Ting went to bring out a bowl of fried sesame seeds, peanuts and white sugar, and a plate of shredded cucumbers, "Young masters and ladies, try wrapping two while it's hot, it tastes very good."
