Chapter 1179: House and Land

As long as the brothers refrained from causing any trouble, he would leave them be.

Being still young, there was no urgent need for him to decide whom to entrust the empire to.

To his surprise, Heaven’s will seemed to favor the Crown Prince.

This was a relief, as he didn’t have to worry about the Crown Prince’s filial piety.

Qiao Xuan was completely clueless about what was happening.

Having asked someone to deliver gifts to Lord Anping Manor, she visited the 20 mu of land in the north of the town the next day.

The project had already been completed, and it had cost a considerable amount of money to encircle the entire land with a high brick wall.

However, her plan was to cultivate large quantities of potatoes and strawberries, which required proper wrapping and care. Additionally, they would grow various other vegetables, ensuring a steady harvest of fresh produce.

Inside the vast walled area, there was a flat patch of green bricks, which served as a place for drying and sorting after the harvest.

On both sides of the flat land, a row of houses had been built.

On one side stood a cozy house, providing a place for them to take short breaks, while on the other side, a spacious storeroom was conveniently situated. Beneath the storeroom lay a cellar almost as large as the main structure.

In front of the house, a pit had been carefully dug, and an assortment of pomegranates, magnolias, sweet osmanthus, and ginkgo trees had been planted. Though their trunks were currently bare, come spring, they would sprout and create a beautiful patch of greenery.

The fields had been meticulously divided into neat and organized sections, yet at this time of the year, they appeared bare, devoid of any crops.

Despite the empty appearance, a sense of achievement washed over Qiao Xuan as she pondered the land she had acquired in the capital.

She had a house and land in the capital!

Qiao Xuan felt an immense sense of satisfaction. She praised Songshi and asked him to visit her occasionally. Her next step was to establish a partnership with a reliable fruit store so she could sell her strawberries to others.

Finding the right collaborator was not an easy task. The person had to possess good character, be trustworthy, and fair, while also avoiding any trace of greed. This required a cautious approach.

Confidently, Songshi agreed that he would make it happen without any issues.

The next day, a representative from Lord Anping Manor arrived to deliver presents to Qiao Xuan. It was Auntie Zhu, the trusted aide of the Princess Consort of the Prefecture Lord.

Qiao Xuan and Auntie Zhu shared a close familiarity. Before Auntie Zhu even had a chance to greet her, Qiao Xuan warmly welcomed her inside and expressed concern about Songshi’s well-being, asking how he liked the gifts.

Auntie Zhu happily confirmed that the gifts were well-received by Songshi and the Princess Consort of the Prefecture Lord. She also conveyed Madame Shao’s deep longing for Songshi.

Smiling, Qiao Xuan remarked, “He is an innocent soul, and those who know him will treat him with kindness.”

Auntie Zhu laughed, agreeing wholeheartedly, “Indeed, our Young Master is truly pure-hearted.”

After a few moments of casual conversation, Auntie Zhu shared some important news. “The Prefecture Lord and the Princess Consort of the Prefecture Lord are planning to spend the New Year at the Princess Consort’s home with their son and stay there for a considerable period. They might not return for a year or two, or even three to five years. It’s truly a pity! Madame Shao, you and Officer Shao must take good care of yourselves. The climate in the capital can be quite unpredictable, so it’s crucial to be attentive to your well-being and avoid any harm to your health!”
