I’m the Farmgirl You Can’t Mess With - Chapter 1029

Chapter 1029: Don’t Be Nervous Chapter 1029: Don’t Be Nervous Editor: Atlas Studios This time, he did not mind that Imperial Physician Wang’s medical skills were not good enough to give a confirmed diagnosis.

According to Imperial Physician Wang, she was possibly pregnant.

According to the doctors outside however, their diagnosis was just that she was depressed.

Knowing that the children were cheering Mu Yangling up and helping her adjust her emotions, he asked nervously, “Are you feeling better now?

Why don’t you let them perform two more songs?” Afraid that they were going to start again, Imperial Physician Wang hurriedly said, “Your Highness, it’s best if Her Highness’s emotions are stable.

A huge fluctuation in emotions due to joy isn’t ideal either.” What he was implying was that the young masters shouldn’t dance and sing again.

The more the Princess Consort laughed, the more his heart trembled.

Qi Haoran immediately stopped the children from dancing and singing.

“Just read your books and say something pleasant.

Don’t make any more jokes.

Do you hear me?” Little Bear and the others hurriedly agreed and asked, “Will Sister be willing to stay at our house this way?” “Of course.

If you’re obedient, your sister will stay if she’s happy.” Qi Haoran coaxed them.

However, Mu Yangling couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

Even if she kept giving herself psychological hints and took a few deep breaths, she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

Qi Haoran blamed Imperial Physician Wang.

“He shouldn’t have told you about this.

That way, you wouldn’t be nervous.” “He only told me that because he saw that we’ve been looking forward to having a daughter and knew that we were going to soak in the hot spring in two days’ time.” If they were headed to the mountain villa, they wouldn’t just soak in a hot spring.

They would definitely enter the mountains to hunt, too.

Who knew what would happen if she ran and jumped without inhibitions?

“Then he could’ve secretly told me.

It’s fine as long as I’m watching over you.” Qi Haoran muttered a few words and pulled Mu Yangling into his arms.

Sighing, he said, “Don’t be nervous.

It’s a blessing to be pregnant.

Even if you’re not pregnant, it’s fine, too.

I only wanted a daughter because I saw that you’re a little bored at home alone.

Little Bear and the others are all boys.

In a few years’ time, they’ll leave the nest.

With me in the military camp all day long, it’s inevitable that you’ll be bored at home alone.

Girls are different; a daughter is a mother’s personal cotton-padded jacket.” There was something else Qi Haoran didn’t sayaEUR”he wanted a smart and beautiful daughter like Ah Ling.

A girl whose smile brought a warmth to his heart, just like Ah Ling.

The three brats were too naughty.

It was better to have a daughter like Ah Ling.

In order to take care of Mu Yangling, Qi Haoran simply stopped going to the military camp and stayed at home to accompany her.

From time to time, he would ask, “Ah Ling, are you in a good mood?” “Ah Ling, are you nervous?” “Ah Ling, are you feeling unwell anywhere?” Mu Yangling was originally nervous, but now, she wasn’t nervous at all because she was frustrated instead.

Mu Yangling glared at him and chased him out.

With her hands on her waist, she said, “Go do what you need to do.

I’m not at all nervous and I’m also very comfortable!” Qi Haoran looked at her worriedly and comforted her.

“I know, Ah Ling, but you’re obviously in a bad mood now.

We have to calm down.” Mu Yangling snorted and turned around to get someone to sort out the new crops and seeds that had been brought in yesterday.

“Compile them into a booklet and leave a portion of what can be planted.

Send the rest to the farm and let the farmers try to grow them according to the instructions in the booklet.” She then got someone to drag over the sugarcane.

Upon checking the buds on it, she realized that they were still supple, making her heave a sigh of relief.

She planned to plant it in the backyard herself.

The key was that there was not much of this.

Even if she planted them all, it would only occupy a small area.

The sugar of Great Qi was mainly extracted from wheat.

She had never seen sugarcane before, so she was very interested when she saw that Zhou De had obtained this.

She was about to wait for him to return and ask where this thing came from and if such seeds could be imported on a large scale.

Just then, she learned from Zhu Liang that some of the seeds were collected by other sea merchants at the supply stop when they returned.

This sugarcane was bought by a sea merchant from a local after docking on an island.

Knowing that this thing caught the Princess Consort’s eye, he came to pay his respects.

Zhu Liang brought him to Mu Yangling.

Fortunately, he was meticulous when he bought this thing and asked about the situation.

Based on that, he knew that there were many of these things in the local wilderness.

Because the juice was sweet, it was deeply loved by the locals.

However, because it was easy to grow, this was also sold for cheap.

Back then, he could exchange a small pouch of money for a sack.

Mu Yangling asked about the location of the island and found out that it was not far from Guangzhou.

It was their last stop on their way back to Guangzhou.

If she wanted to bring in sugarcane on a large scale, it would be simple.

Mu Yangling got someone to bring the sugarcane to the backyard.

Just as she was about to roll up her sleeves, the children rushed in from the frontyard with a loud cry and shouted, “Mother, you can’t do such chores now!

Leave the work to us!” Little Bear turned around and arranged for his brothers to remove the weeds.

He also called his three playmates over.

Zhuzi was already an 11-year-old young master who had been arranged by Little Bear to loosen the soil with him.

When the seeds were planted, Zhuzi picked up the sugarcane and could not help but exclaim.

He turned it left and right and asked in confusion, “I think I’ve seen this thing before.

Your Highness, is this thing sweet?” “You’ve eaten it before?” Zhuzi scratched his head and said, “Yes.

When we went to the courtyard before the new year, the young Prince brought us into the mountains to hunt.

We had a picnic at the foot of the mountain.

I saw a few bullfrogs who were herding cows.

They fed the cows the leaves of this and ate the straws at the roots themselves.

I took a bite and it was sweet.

They called it sweet straws.

In winter, cows eat the leaves of this when they have nothing else to eat.

However, its straws are much smaller than this, only the size of a thumb.” Mu Yangling was overjoyed.

“That’s right.

Sweet stalks are the same species as this thing.

They can be cultivated.” This thing grew in subtropical and tropical areas, and the juice squeezed out could be used to make sugar.

The sugar used in Great Qi had always been malt sugar.

Because it needed to be made from high-quality wheat or barley, the quantity produced was low and the price was high.

Other than this, there were also beets that could be made into sugar.

Mu Yangling didn’t know where the beets came from, but this didn’t stop her from searching.

In any case, now that the two parties were communicating frequently, they could easily ask the other party about the ingredients to make sugar along the way, since this wasn’t a secret.

This should be very easy to find.

Mu Yangling found Xiao Ting and asked him to look out for such sweet stalks in Guangdong, Guangxi, and other places.

If there were, he was to collect some good seeds and cultivate them with the imported sugarcane.

If it worked, she would definitely urge the Emperor to invest in a sugar factory.

Seeing that she had calmed down now that she had something to do, Qi Haoran heaved a huge sigh of relief.

As he reminded her not to over-exhaust herself, he helped her deal with some matters.

By the time she handed over all her work to someone suitable, it was time for the diagnosis.

Early in the morning, Qi Haoran turned to look at Mu Yangling the moment he opened his eyes.

Seeing that she had also opened her eyes in a daze, he said, “Ah Ling, today is the 15th day.

Imperial Physician Wang said that the diagnosis can be made today.” Mu Yangling responded in a daze and reached out to grab him to prop herself up.

However, when she grabbed him, she realized that his palms were covered in sweat.

Awake now, she was silent for a moment before saying, “Don’t be nervous.

I have a feeling I’m definitely pregnant this time.” Sweating profusely, Qi Haoran said, “Mm, I’m not nervous at all.

You shouldn’t be nervous either.”
