I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 110 Do You Know the Bai Family - Bai Ruonan 19

The New Year has passed and a new year has arrived.

During this year, a major event occurred in the court. It could be said to be a major event that benefited both the country and the people. It was Ningyuan Hou who reported it to the emperor personally.

It turned out that his father-in-law, the original owner's father, discovered two high-yield crops, potatoes and sweet potatoes, while traveling.

Although we now have three meals a day instead of two in the past, the types of meals are also varied, including wheat rice, rice, steamed buns, various pasta, and cakes.

But it is undeniable that there are still many people who cannot get enough to eat. With these two crops that are very filling, if they are promoted, everyone will probably be able to live a life with enough food.

After the officials confirmed that this was true, the emperor was very happy. Not only did he have a healthy prince to inherit his throne, but he also did something that benefited the country and the people during his reign. This was his achievement.

The people who discovered these two crops must be rewarded, so the government issued an edict to confer the title of Fengle Earl on him, and Qingyue was also conferred the title of Changning Princess.

In addition, the government granted him an earl's mansion, many fields, farms, shops, etc.

After the people in the palace left, Qingyue took the imperial edict and read it again.

All her efforts paid off and she finally succeeded.

After she had taken care of the Marquis' Mansion, she sent people to her father. These people were specifically responsible for protecting Bai's father, and they also had other things to do.

After they arrived at Bai's father's side, they followed Qingyue's orders and used some means to beat up the Bai clan members who had bullied Bai's father and the original owner. After so long, they are probably all dead.

Then, when he followed Bai's father on a business trip, Bai's father "accidentally" discovered two high-yield crops, potatoes and sweet potatoes.

At first, Mr. Bai didn't believe it. How could high-yield crops be discovered so easily? It was only when Qingyue's people took out a booklet and showed it to him that it explained everything clearly that Mr. Bai began to believe it. (In fact, Qingyue made the booklet herself, just in case Mr. Bai didn't believe it.)

Afterwards, based on the suggestion, Bai's father planted potatoes and sweet potatoes on a farm. When it was time to harvest, they turned out to be high-yield crops as described in the booklet.

Then Bai's father wrote another letter to Qingyue, explaining the situation, which led to Ningyuan Hou reporting the matter to the government.

After the emperor announced this matter in the court, the ministers were very shocked. After they reacted, they suppressed their excitement and started a heated discussion. They even shouted that there would be no more hungry people in the world and that God would bless our dynasty. No one objected to rewarding the person who discovered the crop as the Earl of Fengle.

The discovery of high-yield crops was well deserved, and after the court session, the government ordered people to post notices everywhere, and soon everyone in the world knew about it.

Those who had previously looked down on the Bai family's origin were even more envious and jealous. They had never expected that people who had lower origins than them would surpass them so quickly and even become unattainable.

Not only was her father a well-known figure among the officials, who also praised him a lot, Bai was also given the title of Princess Changning because of her father's relationship. Moreover, her husband's family was a marquis's mansion. Bai herself was also capable and had given birth to two sons.

For a time, Bai became the object of everyone's envy.

Earl Fengle and Princess Changning also became new nobles in the upper class of Bianjing City. At this time, many upper-class families forgot how much they disliked Bai in the past and never invited her to any banquets. They started to invite Bai to attend parties and banquets.

It was as if everything before didn't exist.

But Qingyue didn't care about these things now. Following the emperor's order, Bai's father arrived in Bianjing after packing up in Yangzhou.

From now on, they will live together in Bian Jing and will be able to meet each other often.

Qingyue got up early in the morning of that day. After breakfast, she took Ye'er and Shuo'er out of the marquis's mansion and went to the pier outside the city of Bianjing.

After waiting for about half an hour, a luxurious-looking ship slowly approached the shore. The first people to get off the boat were a few strong men, and behind them came out an older man wearing a black robe and a beard.

Qingyue knew at first sight that he was Bai's father.

She immediately got off the carriage, holding Ye Ge'er's hand. Chang Ping followed behind her, holding Shuo Ge'er in her arms.

"Father."

Qingyue shouted from a distance, and by chance, Bai's father turned around and saw this side, and immediately walked over.

Looking at his daughter, Father Bai sighed inwardly. They had not seen each other for several years since his daughter married into the Marquis' Mansion. Seeing that his daughter was more mature than before and there was no sadness between her eyebrows, Father Bai's eyes flashed with relief.

"Father, how have you been in these years? Are you okay? It's all my fault that I'm unfilial and can't come to see you in person." Qingyue's voice was filled with self-blame.

Father Bai looked at his daughter and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm in good health. Besides, I want to see my two grandchildren get married and have children."

As he spoke, he looked at the two children and said, "These are my two grandchildren, right?"

"Yes, the one I'm holding is Ye Ge'er, and the one in Chang Ping's arms is Shuo Ge'er."

Father Bai touched the heads of his two grandchildren, with a loving look in his eyes: "They are all good children."

"Brother Ye, this is your grandpa. Do you remember? Many of the fun things in your room were given to you by your grandpa. Your grandpa loves you very much." Qingyue squatted down and said to Brother Ye.

Ye Ge'er also remembered and called out crisply, "Grandpa."

"Hey." Father Bai responded, then hugged Ye Ge'er in his arms.

Qingyue looked at the increasing number of people at the dock, and it was really not the right time to talk: "Father, let's go back first. You must be tired after sitting on the boat for so long."

Father Bai looked around and nodded: "Okay, let's go."

So, the group got on the carriage and returned to the Earl's Mansion that the government had bestowed on Bai's father.

Qingyue did not return to the Marquis' Mansion. She planned to stay in the Earl's Mansion for a few days. After all, they had not seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about. Besides, Father Bai also missed his two grandsons very much and certainly did not want them to leave.

Father Bai really loves his two children. He not only plays with them, but also gives them many gifts. Qingyue can see that the gifts given by Father Bai are carefully selected, and each one represents his love for them.

Qingyue also took this opportunity to let Bai's father take some health-enhancing pills. Although Bai's father was in good health and had no serious illness, he still had some minor ailments and pains.

Thinking about the original plot, Bai's father died when Gu Tingye was a teenager, and after his death, his property was almost taken away by other members of the Bai family. This should not happen again this time.

Not only can he enjoy his old age, but he can also fulfill his wish and watch his two grandsons get married and have children.
