Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This winter was a little easier than last year. After the people of Shifeng County found out that Jian Qingqing had been conferred the title of Princess, countless people wanted to see her every day because there were too many people who wanted to see her. Jian Qingqing entertained a few people who were hard to refuse and then disappeared.
However, it was hard for the people of Jian Village to refuse. Jian Qingqing had been conferred the title of Princess. They were extremely excited. Didn’t this prove that she was the daughter of the Lord of Heaven! Now, the God of Heaven was going to be her Princess!
Since there was such a big figure in her clan, it was natural for them to hold a feast. Therefore, for three days in a row, Jian village was in a very lively atmosphere. Jian Qingqing also went to pay respects to their ancestors for three days.
After paying respects to the ancestors, there was nothing much to do. The weather in November also began to be cold and windy. Therefore, Jian
Qingqing slept in bed every day. Once she slept until she woke up naturally, she would write and draw when she woke up and memorize medical books, when there was nothing to do, she would go out for a walk. This was the most comfortable period of time she had in the past two years.
The days in winter were always exceptionally short. Time quickly passed by in trivial daily life. Soon, it was spring. The grass and trees began to grow tender green leaves, and many flowers began to bloom, the spring seeds were about to begin again.
Because she planned to leave after the spring planting, Jian Qingqing began to prepare the things here one by one.
She planned to gift the village’s chicken and pig farms to each household as a share of the stock. Then, she would use all the money to buy chickens and piglets, and then hand them over to the village chief.
The factory would still be hers, but she would need to hire a big manager to fully manage the entire factory.
The Jian’s Food Shop would also need to be managed by a special person.
However, after she opened the factory and the food shop, she basically left them in charge. She would only visit them occasionally, and the rest of the time would be managed by other people. Therefore, it would not be a big problem after she left, she would just need to let those people manage it. After arranging all these matters, it was already march. She would be able to leave in about a month.
However, Old Man Jian and his wife were somewhat reluctant to leave their hometown, especially Old Man Jian. To him, his roots were here, and his wife and second son were also here, so the closer it was to the time of departure, his mood was getting worse.
Jian Qingqing comforted him, “Grandfather, we will come back in the future.
How about coming back twice a year? We will accompany you back.”
Old Man Jian patted her hand and said, “It won’t be that easy. It’ll take a month to come back and forth. You’re all so busy, so you don’t have to accompany an old man like me to run around.”
He did not want his granddaughter to worry, so he calmed himself down. He smiled and said, “Big Sister, don’t worry about me. I’m just a little reluctant to leave your grandmother and Second Uncle. I still want to follow you to see the luxurious Capital! I want to see if there’s gold everywhere, and everyone is wearing gold and silver! Maybe I can even see the Emperor! Heh! My granddaughter is a Princess!”
Jian Qingqing giggled. “It’s not that exaggerated. She’s just a little richer than us here. When the time comes, I’ll definitely be able to see the Emperor. If he doesn’t want to see you, I’ll go talk to him!”
Old Man Jian disagreed. “Aiyo, how can that be? If he doesn’t want to meet me, then so be it. I’m just a bumpkin, a farmer. I might not be able to say anything after meeting him. Wouldn’t that be embarrassing for you? That won’t do! Don’t tell him either.. If he doesn’t have a good impression of you, then it’ll be terrible!”
