I’m the Farmgirl You Can’t Mess With -
Chapter 795 - Chapter 795 Agreement
Chapter 795: Agreement Chapter 795: Agreement Editor: Atlas Studios Qi Haoran angrily wrote a letter to Qi Xiuyuan.
He originally wanted to teach his son a lesson, but in the end, he ultimately couldn’t bear to do so.
He wondered if that kid understood what he’d said.
Seeing that his handwriting had almost penetrated through the paper, Mu Yangling knew that he was still fuming.
She held his hand and said, “Alright, children are like a piece of white paper.
At three years old, there’s so much that he doesn’t know.
There’s a limit to what we can teach him, and there’s also a limit to how much he can remember.
Now that he knows that he shouldn’t ask for red packets after the first month of the Lunar New Year, he naturally won’t goof up like this in the futureaEUR|” Qi Haoran threw the pen on the table with a faint anger on his face.
“So what if my son asks them for red packets?
There are so many people who are eager to give him red packets but don’t have the opportunity to.
If they dare to look at him mockingly with me around, what about in private?” Alright, he was being protective of his child again.
Mu Yangling dragged a chair over and sat beside him, supporting her chin as she listened to him rant.
No matter how bad his son was, he was still his son.
He could teach the boy a lesson, but he would not allow others to mock his son like this.
Over the next few days, those generals with mocking eyes would go on to be tortured by Qi Haoran.
Qi Haoran said in a cold voice, “In half a year, if they don’t become capable enough to make me overlook their lack of loyalty, I can only replace them with another group of people.” Mu Yangling was silent.
The reason why Qi Xiuyuan handed such a large army and so many generals to Qi Haoran was because he hoped that the latter would use Qiannan as a base to train generals who could lead troops to war.
Due to the lack of talent in Great Qi, these people were the bandit leaders who had been offered amnesty previously.
Qi Xiuyuan had promised them preferential treatment, so they became the first batch of assistant commanders to be nurtured and trained.
However, after a year, Qi Haoran had clearly produced lackluster results.
Perhaps it was because they had surrendered too quickly previously and hadn’t fought against Qi Haoran’s army, they were very unconvinced of him.
They even looked down on Great Qi.
Other than Liu Dahei, Lin Man, and four or five other generals, although Qi Haoran had imposed tough training on them over the past year, their arrogance had actually intensified.
In the beginning, Qi Haoran admired their arrogance, but now, he looked down on them.
He had already subdued their lieutenants, battalion commanders, and company commanders.
Even the soldiers of the entire East, West, and Central Camps had submitted to him and the Emperor from the bottom of their hearts.
However, these generals continued to feel indignant and refused to change.
How could Qi Haoran think highly of them when they couldn’t even clearly judge their circumstances and their positions?
This time, their mocking gazes at Little Bear clearly angered Qi Haoran.
Didn’t their arrogance stem from thinking that they’d contributed to the Emperor’s ascend to the throne partly owing to their surrender back then?
Now that he had broken their claws and teeth, he wanted to see how they would maintain their arrogance.
Now, Qi Haoran was still willing to give them another chance.
Half a year was enough for one person to make a change.
If they still lacked this self-awareness after half a year, but didn’t have the talent and ability to make Qi Haoran take a step back, he would throw them into the mountains.
The army might lack many things, but it certainly had no lack of loyal and capable soldiers eager to climb up the ranks.
As long as he worked hard and trained them ruthlessly, he was confident he’d be able to groom competent generals.
At this thought, Qi Haoran’s anger subsided a little.
He balled up the paper on the table and threw it aside, then pulled out a piece of white paper and wrote to Qi Xiuyuan.
“*Little Treasure has already started learning, I think Little Bear is also of a suitable age to go to school.
Didn’t you find a Teacher for Little Bear?
We can’t keep giving him a salary while keeping him idle.
Let’s find a day for him to start teaching Little Bear.” However, Little Bear would only turn four this spring.
Considering boys tended to mature late, it might not be a good thing for him to begin studying early.
Mu Yangling hesitated and was unwilling to agree.
“Let’s wait for another two years.
We’ll let him enrol when he’s six years old.
Now, he has to practice martial arts with you every day and go out to play.
How can he have time to study?
Why don’t I teach him some simple words first and teach him some life principles every day?
He can go to school when he’s six or something.” Helpless, Qi Haoran said, “It’s true that a benevolent mother spoils her children.
Is going out to play considered a serious matter?
Open your eyes and look at the children of the officials in the Imperial Court.
Which one of them didn’t start learning at the age of three or four?
Even though Little Treasure’s body is weak, he also started learning at a young age.” “That’s other people.
Didn’t you see how dull those children in the capital looked?
A five- or six-year-old child looks like he’s 15 or 16 years old, with that perfectly straight face.
When they saw Little Bear playing with his toys, their eyes were filled with envy, but they didn’t dare to move or say a word.
I don’t want my son to become like this in the future.
He’s still young now.
At least, I think he should be playing happily before he turns six.
As for after that, even if he wants to study, we should try our best to let him enjoy learning.
Studying is a lifetime thing, not something that can be accomplished after just eight to ten years.” Qi Haoran frowned.
Seeing that Ah Ling insisted, he could only purse his lips and say, “Alright, but let me teach him calligraphy.
Your regular script is not bad, but it doesn’t exude strength.
He might as well learn the Liu style from me.” As he spoke, he gestured for her to look at his handwriting and said smugly, “I’ve even been praised by a teacher for my handwriting.” Mu Yangling said faintly, “That’s because there’s nothing else for your teacher to praise you about.” “You’re just jealous of me.
Even Zijin admitted that his handwriting was inferior to mineaEUR|.” As Qi Haoran spoke, he wrote the letter.
Instead of using the official route, he directly used his son’s messenger pigeon to send the letter to the capital.
When Little Treasure received the letter, a huge question mark appeared in his mind.
‘Little Bear sent him such a thick letter?’ When he opened it, he realized that it was for his royal father.
Little Treasure took out a small piece of paper that had been squeezed into a corner by his uncle’s letter and looked for his royal father with a long face.
He was certain that his uncle had written too much and since the messenger pigeon could only carry so much, Little Bear could only write on such a small piece of paper.
Little Treasure handed the letter to his Royal Father and repeatedly reminded him, “You must not use our messenger pigeon again.
Little Bear’s going to cry because he has so much more to say to me.” The corners of Qi Xiuyuan’s mouth twitched as he agreed.
He really wanted to ask his son, “Why do you two have so much to talk about every day?” Qi Xiuyuan opened the letter and took a look.
Qi Haoran suggested that the cattle farm and nursery be held by the royal family and be managed by Ah Ling instead of the Imperial Court.
Firstly, they were afraid that the conflict of interest in the Imperial Court would reduce or eliminate the role of the cattle farm and nursery.
Secondly, handing it over to the royal family could increase its reputation.
Be it the cattle farm or the nursery, they could quickly gain the favor of the people.
Qi Xiuyuan knocked on the table and fell into deep thought.
The Imperial Court had always been the one to step forward for such matters.
In previous dynasties, the royalty only had to protect the reputation of the royal family and restrain their descendants.
They rarely appeared to participate in such matters because the Emperor sitting on the throne represented the entire royal family.
However, this did not mean that the royal family could not do these things.
Just as Haoran had said, if the royal family came forward to manage the cattle farm and nursery, not only would they be able to expand the operation of the two, but they would also increase the prestige of the royal family.
Even if the descendants sitting on the throne in the future were unworthy, there would still be room to turn things around.
And in the royal family, there was no one more suitable than Mu Yangling.
Although the person managing the two entities had not changed, the ownership would have changed on the surface.
Qi Xiuyuan agreed without much thought.
The next day, he called Fan Zijin in and said, “I want to shift ownership of Ah Ling’s cattle farm and nursery to the royal family.
Choose some Imperial Plantations of similar value from the list, and I’ll give them to her in exchange.”
