The most arrogant in history

Chapter 889 5 Immortality.

Qiaozhen's son smiled and said, "As for the roads, it's even better. The older generation said that in the past, even if there was a horse carriage, it would take two days and two nights to get to Tianmen City, and the carriages would often overturn and fall off cliffs.

Now, the road is wide and straight, and it only takes one day to get to Tianmen City. "

Ye Kun smiled and asked, "How about the child's studies?"

Qiaozhen's son said: "In the past, there were very few people who could read. There were only one or two people in a village. Now every village has a school, and children can go to school. There are more and more people who can read and write. Young people around 20 years old can all read and write, and can write letters and keep accounts."

Qiaozhen's son-in-law said: "People's life expectancy is much higher now. In the past, it was difficult for people to live to 50 years old. Nowadays, people don't look old at all at 50."

Ye Kun laughed: "Fifty years old is not old at all."

In later generations, people retired at the age of 60, or even delayed retirement to 65.

There are quite a few people in their seventies who work to earn money.

Fifty years old is really young.

Ye Kun himself is over fifty and doesn't feel that old.

Everyone raised their glasses and talked about the changes over the past few decades.

After the meal, Jiang Yourong rewarded Qiaozhen with 100 taels of gold and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law Qiaozhen, this little money is for your retirement. I haven't taken care of you as an old friend for so many years, so this is a little compensation for you."

Qiaozhen hastily declined: "Your Highness, I have food and drink, but I dare not accept your gold. I am very happy that Your Highness still remembers me."

Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "You think it's too little? If you think it's too little, then don't take it."

"This……"

Qiaozhen had no choice but to accept the gold and let her children and grandchildren kowtow to Jiang Yourong.

Jiang Yourong nodded and instructed Qiaozhen's children and grandchildren:

"You young people are all good. But remember, you can't bully others just because your mother is the queen's friend. China must build a society where everyone abides by the law and respects the law. If the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty just like the people, understand?"

"We all remember your reminder, Madam."

Everyone answered together.

Jiang Yourong nodded and personally escorted Qiaozhen and her family out of the county government gate.

Yuejuan had already brought her personal maid to clean up the dishes and said with a smile, "Sister Queen, Daixi, let's play cards. I remember that we used to play mahjong and Landlord a lot!"

Dai Xi laughed: "This is a good suggestion. We haven't played cards for a long time."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "Count me in?"

Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "The three of us are landlords, so we won't take you with us. Go play somewhere else."

Ye Kun rubbed his face and took Jasmine for a walk.

Jiang Yourong and others played cards for the whole afternoon.

Before dusk, Jiang Yourong said goodbye to everyone, but left Ye Kun and Liu Yuejuan in the courtyard of the county government office. He said with a smile: "You two, relive your old memories here tonight. Tomorrow morning, I will go to Caomiao Village and Jianghetou."

Yue Juan blushed and whispered, "Sister Queen, look at what you said, how can we respond?"

Jiang Yourong giggled and took Daixi away.

In the county government compound, only Ye Kun and Liu Yuejuan were left.

"Ms. Yuejuan, let's... go take a shower and go to bed."

"Where to sleep?"

"Your boudoir, of course."

"shameless……"

Yuejuan smiled, took Ye Kun's hand, and walked into her former boudoir.

The spring breeze from the south of the Yangtze River blows slowly, bringing with it the same warmth and romance as before.

The next day, after sunrise, Ye Kun and Yue Juan were still sleeping.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yourong had already arrived and whispered outside the window, "Newcomer, are you up?"

Yue Juan woke up with a start, her face flushed with shame. She pushed Ye Kun and whispered, "Why did we sleep so soundly tonight? Sister Yourong is here. It's so embarrassing."

Jiang Yourong answered from outside the window, smiling, "It's not shameful, it's not shameful, young people, who isn't like this?"

Ye Kun chuckled: "Your Majesty, what you said is right."

After washing up, Ye Kun had breakfast and accompanied Jiang Yourong, Dai Xi and others to Caomiao Village and Jianghetou.

Liu Yuejuan stayed in the county government compound and continued to reminisce about her youth.

The road leading to Caomiao Village has now been replaced with four lanes and has been hardened with cement.

Evergreen trees and flowering trees are also planted on both sides.

It’s just that the season hasn’t come yet and the trees haven’t bloomed yet.

Ye Kun has a dedicated diesel car, but today, he chose a horse-drawn carriage.

Jiang Yourong sat next to Ye Kun, pointing out the scenery on both sides of the road, and said with a smile:

"The village on the left is called Laowang Village. Not far ahead is Fangtang Village. Going further ahead, there should be a large sandalwood forest, right?"

Ye Kun ordered the carriage to go slower and nodded, "The sandalwood forest ahead seems to have been cut down a long time ago. It should be a farmland now. Sandalwood trees are crooked and difficult to grow..."

Jiang Yourong nodded: "There used to be a large jujube forest over there in Jianghetou, but it didn't produce jujubes."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "It's spring now, and it's the right time to graft jujube trees. We can find some good varieties of jujube trees and graft them onto the old jujube trees. In two or three years, they will be able to bear branches."

Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "The fruit tree grafting technology was also invented by the emperor. Your Majesty, why are you so smart?"

"I know how to give birth to a child, so how difficult is it to graft fruit trees?" Ye Kun grinned.

"Not serious." Jiang Yourong rolled his eyes.

Continuing forward, Jiang Yourong's eyes suddenly turned red and she turned her head away.

Ye Kun was stunned and asked in a low voice: "My Lady, are you thinking of my second sister again?"

Jiang Yourong nodded and sighed, "What a pity, my second sister didn't see this day..."

"But my second sister's life was worth it. My second sister made an indelible contribution to China's cotton textile industry."

Ye Kun nodded and said, "We passed by Tianzhu during this voyage, so I just happened to accompany you to see Third Sister Youcai. It has been a few years since I last saw Third Sister."

The third sister, Jiang Youcai, and her family immigrated to India several years ago.

Perhaps because he was angry, Jiang Youcai rarely contacted his sister Jiang Yourong.

Jiang Yourong thought about this and sighed: "The third girl is still angry with us and doesn't come back to see us. She is in Tianzhu, which is actually quite good. There are thousands of He family disciples, so we still listen to them."

Ye Kun said: "He Quan often sends me telegrams, and sends me greetings during festivals. Let's not take the mistakes of the little ones seriously, and comfort the third sister. This girl has been spoiled by me since she was a child, and she is willful."

"Now you know, I was spoiled by you?"

Jiang Yourong smiled and whispered in Ye Kun's ear: "In fact, at the beginning, I wanted to keep the third sister in the palace. I thought you liked the third sister, but I didn't expect that you promised the third sister to He Quan."

Ye Kun blushed and shook his head, "Third sister has been with us since she was a child, I treat her as my own sister."

Jiang Yourong smiled: "Fortunately, I didn't give my third sister to you, otherwise, my third sister would definitely cause unrest in the palace..."

"My lady, let's change the subject."

Ye Kun was a little overwhelmed and said with a smile: "Guess, in Caomiao Village now, can we still see the old acquaintances?"
