In the back garden, the stench is overwhelming.

Xiaoya, Li Zhi, and the three of them all covered their mouths and noses with their hands or sleeves, timidly looking at the buckets of night incense soaked in broken grass in front of them, holding their little hoes, not knowing what to do.

"Do you have to use these things, sir?" Pinching his nose and taking two steps back, Li Zhi opened his mouth and asked Liu Yiyi.

Yanagichichi nodded.

"No, okay? Brother-in-law, these things stink! Xiaoya also took her little hoe and stepped back a little, and said coquettishly to Liu Yiyi.

Liu Yiyi shook his head.

"So, how do you use it? Please also sir! Only the little son held her hoe tightly and stood there steadily, looking righteous and awe-inspiring, but in her eyes, Liu Yiyi still saw a trace of fear.

"Alas, what a group of pampered children," sighed lightly in his heart, Liu Yiyi shook his head slightly, originally thinking that the little girl had stayed outside the palace, and the environment was not very good, and when facing these fertilizers, she would behave better, and she didn't want this little girl to be even inferior to the little girl.

Bending down and rolling up his sleeves, Liu Yi indifferently lifted one of the buckets, pressed the wooden handle-shaped dung scoop in the bucket downward, stirred it, stirred the broken grass clippings in the bucket evenly, and then grabbed the end of the handle, scooped up a scoop with a dung scoop, and splashed the fertilizer in the scoop on the open space they had leveled yesterday, and then turned to the three of them and said: "That's it, either straight splashing and turning, or shallow burial in the ground, what you want to do, it's all up to you, but today, these five buckets of fertilizer." The three of you, you must use it all up. ”

"Huh?!"

This time, even the little boy also took a step back, the little face became a little white, looking at the night fragrance that was splashed and filthy on the land, yellow and white, the three little guys all had a feeling of wanting to vomit, these night fragrances that had been covered all night, the smell was really too bad.

Then, "regardless of the reactions and expressions of the three little ones." Liu Yiyi picked up his long hoe, and then demonstrated to the three students, poked the hoe out, turned the ground, and covered the night incense that had just been spilled on the surface under the soil, and said, "Hmm." In this way, bury all the fertilizer, use it as the base fertilizer, wait for two days, wait for all the fertilizer, and then sow the cucumber seeds brought by the teacher. ”

The method of fertilization was explained to them in detail little by little, and they all demonstrated it in person, and finally Liu Yiyi waved his hand at the three little ones and said, "Okay, now it's time for you to do it!" ”

"Woo. Brother-in-law" "Sir"

The three little guys all showed some pain, begging, and unwilling looks on their faces, and looked at Liu Yiyi pitifully, begging softly. That demeanor. It is even more painful than hitting them on the palms with a ruler or punishing them to copy the Three Character Sutra a hundred times.

"No way!"

Liu Yiyi's face turned cold all of a sudden, put away the hoe, straightened up, and put on a posture of being a teacher and unrestrained, and was not moved by the pitiful expressions of the three of them.

"Niangniang, it's not what the villain wants to say, what is wrong to provoke." In the main hall of the Lizheng Palace, Xiao Dezi, the chief attendant, bowed down in front of the eldest grandson and complained: "It's that Mr. Yifan, it's really a bit excessive." ”

Carefully glancing at the eldest grandson queen on the seat, Xiao Dezi continued: "He wants to borrow the back garden to teach the three little highnesses to study, but the villain will not." I don't dare to have any opinions. But how, how could he, how could he let the three little highnesses go down and touch those night incense filth? stained the hands and eyes of the three highnesses, not to speak. The back garden was stinky, just now the villain passed by the door of the garden, so he was not smoked by the smell from inside, even the villain couldn't bear it, the three little highnesses were so delicate, how could they stand it? ”

"Oh?" Raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Dezi, the eldest grandson queen was somewhat surprised, Xiao Dezi has been by her side for more than ten years, and she has always been a good person, she has never been like this, who speaks right and wrong, why is Liu Yifan in front of her today?

"What the hell is going on? What kind of night incense, smoked, you explain it clearly to the palace," there was some curiosity in her heart, and the eldest grandson queen opened her mouth softly and asked Xiao Dezi.

"Yes, Queen Mother," seeing that Empress Changsun was not angry and blamed, Xiao Dezi was relieved, bent slightly, and said to Empress Changsun in a sharp voice: "Here's the thing, early this morning, Mr. Yifan somehow asked for a few barrels of night incense from the Zuo Guard, and someone moved them into the back garden, saying that he wanted to teach the three highnesses to plough and hoe and fertilize. ”

"The villain originally didn't believe it, thinking about how Mr. Yifan is also a scholar, he should know some measure, that is, to teach the three highnesses to be familiar with farming, but he can't bring a few buckets of night incense to let the three highnesses face each other and use it regardless of the slightest influence." Xiao Dezi said softly: "But, just now, when the villain passed by the back garden, he not only smelled a smoky smell, but also saw that Mr. Yifan was urging the three highnesses to stir up the night fragrance of wine, so that the garden was full of yellow and white things. ”

"Well, that's so," Empress Eldest Sun nodded lightly, glanced at Xiao Dezi deeply, and asked softly: "Before Xiao Dezi entered the palace, did he engage in farming?" ”

"Uh," although I don't know why the queen mother asked this, Xiao Dezi still whispered very respectfully: "Back to the queen mother, the villain has been in the palace since he was a child, and he doesn't have a deep impression of the previous things. ”

"Then you must not know why Mr. Liu founded Liu's Fat Workshop in the first place, right?" Empress Eldest Sun nodded lightly and said, "Then you must be puzzled why the Liu Clan's Fat Workshop is so popular with the people." ”

"Little Dezi is blunt, the queen mother forgives her sins!" Thinking of something in his heart, Xiao Dezi's tone became weak.

"Okay, this palace already knows about this matter," Wei waved his hand at Xiao Dezi, and Empress Changsun's tone became a little stern, and said: "Don't mention it again in the future, and don't forget your identity and responsibilities, don't comment on some things, you are also loyal, this time this palace will no longer pursue it, let's go down first." ”

"Yes, Queen! The villain remembers, thank you to the queen! Bending over and saluting, a drop of cold sweat flowed from the corner of Xiao Dezi's forehead, perhaps, he was indeed a little reckless today.

"Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and fertilizer is the treasure of the farmer, which is why Liu Yiyi wanted to establish Liu's Fertilizer Workshop in the first place," Thinking of the words that the emperor had said when he mentioned Liu's Fertilizer Workshop, Empress Changsun glanced outside the hall and muttered: "If this Mr. Yifan can meet Mr. Liu, or he will become a confidant, it is not certain." The two of them are very similar. ”

"Xianghe," Empress Changsun whispered to the palace maid behind her, "You go to prepare some warm water, and when you rest at noon, you can shower and wash them for Yuyu, the young slaves, and their sons." ”

Looking at the sky outside, the sun was already empty, and it was about to be noon, and the eldest grandson queen thought about it again, and then said: "Well, prepare some for Mr. Yifan, and then go find a clean clothes for him." ”

"Yes, Queen!" Xianghe said softly, bent over, and slowly retreated.

"Queen Mother!" Soon after Xiang Hefeng withdrew, without waiting for anyone to pass through, Princess Yuzhang took her personal maid and maid together, trotted into the palace, and came to the front of the eldest grandson queen, bowed down to salute, and looked at the look on her face, very happy.

"Oh, it's Ru'er, hehe, why are you willing to come back today?" Seeing that it was her baby daughter, Empress Changsun also chuckled, waved her hand and beckoned her to sit beside her, stroked her little hand, and asked Yu Zhang in a warm voice: "Your sister Changle is okay?" ”

"Don't worry, Sister Changle's body is already very good, when Ru'er came back just now, Sister Changle also personally sent Ru'er out of the door," laughed and reported the good news to the queen mother, Li Ru seemed to chuckle and said to the queen of the eldest grandson: "Sister Changle asked Ru'er to say hello to the queen mother on her behalf, saying that it would be a while, and when her body was better, she would go to the palace to see the queen mother." ”

"Oh? Is it really what Changle's girl said? Seeing Yuzhang nodded, Empress Changsun couldn't help but feel relieved for a while, and her face also showed some joy, for Changle's good health, and for Changle's words just now.

"Naturally it's true, how dare Ru'er deceive the queen mother?" Obediently wrapping around the arm of the eldest grandson queen, Li Ru seemed to lean her head on the shoulder of the queen mother, and said in a coquettish voice: "After this illness, Sister Changle seems to have seen a lot of things, and the resentment towards the queen mother in her heart has long faded. ”

"Uh-huh, that's fine!" Empress Eldest Sun nodded with satisfaction, and her right hand couldn't help but raise her hand, patting Yu Zhang's little hand.

"That's right, Queen Mother," After a while, after Empress Changsun's mind calmed down a little, Yu Zhang raised his head and asked Empress Changsun softly: "Outside the palace just now, Erchen seems to have heard someone mention that Mr. Yifan is now taking Yuyu Zhinu and them to familiarize themselves with farming in the back garden, but really?" ”
