Fan Caiying's pregnancy is a great news for the Qinghe Marquis Mansion.

In this social relationship linked by family and blood, the prosperity of the family is a sign of prosperity.

Although Fan Caiying's status is low, under Chen Xu's care without discrimination, Shui Qing, Ying Shiyan and Meng Wan are also like sisters on weekdays, and there is not much distinction and estrangement, so the Hou Mansion does not dare to have half of Fan Caiying's disrespect from top to bottom, from food and lodging to the equipment of the servants is almost no different from Meng Wan and others, and the dietary arrangements are taken care of meticulously.

At the same time as Fan Caiying was pregnant, the news that the Marquis of Qinghe had another concubine came out, so soon these two things became a topic of conversation among the people of Xianyang, and even the princes and princes and civil and military officials couldn't help but discuss it, so recently Chen Xu went to the court, many officials would come up and gossip about it and then start to handle government affairs with satisfaction, and even the emperor couldn't help but ask a few words in the court, saying that Chen Xu did this very well, and he had to take more concubines to pass on the bloodline of the disciples of the immortal family.

The prosperity of Chen Xu's house inevitably indicates that Daqin will be taken care of more by Taiyi Xianzun, and with the protection of the immortal family, Daqin will inevitably be more prosperous, which is closely related to the emperor's view, and there is no room for sloppiness, whether Daqin will be good in the future depends on the number of descendants in Chen Xu's family, as long as the royal family and Chen Xu's family continue to marry, so that the royal family will get the blood of the immortal family, the closer this connection, the more stable the status of the royal family in the people, ordinary people can no matter whether there is a rebellion or not, they respect the immortals more, And once the royal family is fused with the blood of the immortal family, the more the common people will naturally respect it, and anyone who rebels must first think about the consequences of offending the immortals.

'Princely generals, Ning has a kind of 'This concept has no status with the emergence of Chen Xu, now the immortal disciples sit in Daqin to protect the people of the world, the princes and generals do not know, but the immortal disciples must have a kind, look at the daily smoke of the Taiyi Temple all over the world, whether it is an official, rich or ordinary people, when encountering a bad situation, they will go to the Taiyi Temple to worship melons and fruits, burn incense and worship to pray for the safety of the house, ask for wealth, seek blessings, ask for a wife, and even ask for a sow to have a baby to pray for Taiyi Xianzun to know, not at all, anyway, on the incense, Taiyi Xianzun and Qinghe Hou have to take care of it, and never took care of Qinghe's care.

……

"Brother, the cucumbers have grown up, when can I eat them?"

In the cold wind, Yu Ji and Xing'er, who had already had a winter vacation, soaked in the greenhouse almost all day long to observe the flowers they planted, and of course they were more concerned about the melons and fruits planted by Chen Xu.

In the center of the greenhouse, a cane shelf on the cane shelf is entwined with branches and leaves, and the tender yellow flowers are also in full bloom all over the shelf, and there are many yellow, yellow, green and green cucumbers hanging between the emerald green leaves, and the color is fresh and delicate, which looks very pleasing.

Xing'er and Yu Ji dragged Chen Xu's arm to the cucumber stand one by one, their eyes were full of twinkling little stars, and their mouths were still sucking saliva.

These two little girls are hopeless!

Chen Xu looked at these emerald green cucumbers, and felt that it was unlikely to wait until they were raised and matured, because these two girls would stay in front of the cucumber rack almost every day to count, hoping to taste the dazzling melons and fruits of the Western Regions described by Chen Xu.

And Chen Xu also had a little regret, this is indeed a cucumber, but it is not as long as the cucumber seen in later generations, the largest is only about 20 centimeters, there are few melon thorns on the round surface, and the color is not a single green, many are that kind of tender yellow or even pink white.

This is a variety of cucumber that is completely still wild and has not undergone any artificial breeding and selection.

Seeing Chen Xu come in, a group of teachers and students from the Agricultural College also gathered around, looking at these cucumbers one by one.

"Master Hou, these cucumbers should be edible!" A student sucks his saliva.

It's no wonder that they are interested, but Chen Xu has also been interested in this cucumber since it was planted, and if it is not delicious, Hou Ye will not spend such a big price to build this greenhouse.

And in this cold winter when everything is withering and the entire Weihe Plain can't see too much green, it is indeed a great temptation to have such a shed of flowers and green melons and fruits, and some students will even secretly eat a few tender cucumber leaves to satisfy their hunger.

Chen Xu also secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

After waiting for more than two months, it's really time to try it.

Chen Xu watched back and forth in the cucumber rack and searched for it, and finally chose the largest one, picked the cucumber under the direct gaze of a group of people, wiped it with his hands a few times and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Click~"

With a crisp sound, a long-lost familiar taste splashed in the mouth, and the tender melon pulp and juice filled the entire mouth, as if there was a spring breath that instantly filled the entire body.

This taste is exactly the same as eating cucumbers in the vegetable garden when I was a child, and it is even more delicious.

The main reason is that Chen Xu has been thinking about this taste for too long.

It was a familiar memory spanning more than 2,000 years, and in an instant, Chen Xu seemed to see his mother poking a finger on his forehead: "If you don't do your homework after school, you come to steal flowers and melons again!" ”

The memory of the moment filled his heart, Chen Xu's eyes were moist, and his movements froze unconsciously, and two lines of tears actually flowed down his cheeks.

"Brother Xiaoxu, why are you crying!" Yu Ji gently shook Chen Xu's arm, pulling his thoughts back from time and space more than two thousand years later.

"Wow, the cucumber must be so delicious that I actually cried when I ate it!" Apricot yelled heartlessly.

A group of teachers and students from the Agricultural College looked at each other, not knowing what the cucumber tasted like, and the Hou Ye actually burst into tears when he ate it.

"Well, I guess it's spicy!"

"No, it must be too sweet!"

"It's the bitterness!"

A group of students gather together to discuss in a whisper.

"Brother Xiao Xu, Yu Ji also wants to eat, give me a bite~" Yu Ji was still shaking Chen Xu's arm and begging.

"Oh, okay, okay!" Chen Xu wiped away his tears with his sleeve, took off another one and folded it into two pieces and handed it to Xing'er and Yu Ji, and then said to a group of teachers and students, "You can choose a few big ones and taste them, don't break the melon vine!" ”

"Oh~~" There was a burst of cheers in the greenhouse, a teacher picked four cucumbers by himself and broke them into several sections, each student divided into a section, and instantly the whole greenhouse sounded the sound of clicking and chewing.

"Hmm, it's so delicious, it's so crisp and sweet!"

"That's it, the juice is rich and sweet!"

"It's really delicious, I didn't expect that there would be such delicious fruits and vegetables in the bitter cold Western Regions!"

A group of teachers and students ate with juice splashing all over their mouths, and they couldn't help but be surprised while eating.

"Cucumbers are delicious!" Yu Ji was like a hungry little wolf, the juice she ate fell on the placket of her clothes, and she kept shouting excitedly, but Xing'er didn't have time to speak, she opened her mouth to reveal two rows of neat white teeth, and she ate hard.

Chen Xu ate the cucumber in a few bites, then picked a few larger ones, told a group of teachers and students not to eat them secretly, and then took Xing'er and Yu Ji back to the other courtyard.

"Husband is back!" Ying Shiyan and Shui, who were playing with Chen Xi in the backyard, greeted her gently.

"Auntie, the cucumber is ripe and ready to eat, it's so delicious, you can taste it!" Yu Ji excitedly stretched out the little cucumber left in her hand to Shui Qing's mouth, and Shui gently bit down on a piece in confusion, and instantly her face showed surprise, "It's really delicious!" ”

"Come in with me, Qiu Xiang will call Wan'er and Caiying, and today my husband will make you a delicious meal to satisfy your cravings!" Chen Xuxing rushed to the kitchen with a few cucumbers.

Cucumber is a fruit and vegetable, naturally eaten in a variety of ways, raw to eat crisp and tender thirst quenching, is a rare delicacy, and cucumber is the most common way to eat is as a cold dish.

The cold cucumber is easy to operate, and there is an ancestral practice that is popular in the world in later generations, which can be done in three minutes, that is, garlic mash cucumber.

In this era when there is hardly any industrial and chemical pollution, coupled with greenhouse cultivation, cucumbers are almost free of any dust pollution from flowering to growth, and there are no pests in winter, so cleaning is superfluous.

But adhering to the good habit of washing hands before and after meals, Chen Xu still washed a few cucumbers with water, then cut off the tip of the head and the tail, and did not need to peel the skin, gently crushed it with a thick kitchen knife, cut it into small pieces more than an inch long with a few knives and put it on the plate, and then peeled a few heads of garlic and used a wooden mortar to make garlic paste, sprinkled with minced salt, poured two spoons of small grinding sesame oil, vinegar does not need to be put in, and it is directly mixed to make.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of kitchen workers, Chen Xu's movements were dazzling, and in less than five minutes, a plate of traditional dishes that would become a household name in later generations was made, and then he watched the Hou Ye of the house run away with the plate.

When Chen Xu brought a plate of garlic and cucumbers to the restaurant, Xing'er Yu Jishui was soft, Ying Shiyan Mengwan and Fan Caiying were all sitting neatly around the dining table, and the four maids in spring, summer, autumn and winter were also tiptoeing to look at the door of the restaurant, and Xing'er and Yu Ji couldn't wait with chopsticks.

"Haha, the food is coming!"

Although it is not yet the time to eat, a group of women and domestic servants have long been familiar with the cucumbers in the vegetable greenhouse, and they will run to the greenhouse to see it several times a day.

Today, I was suddenly able to taste this kind of fruit and vegetable from the Western Regions that I had been waiting for more than two months, so it made a room full of women very excited.

can make his husband and Hou Ye so concerned, and can't help but spend more than 100,000 yuan to find a glass greenhouse for the extravagant action, these fruits and vegetables from the Western Regions must taste different.

Chen Xu put a plate of garlic cucumber in the center of the table with a happy face.

Ten pairs of eyes landed on the plate at the same time.
