Chapter 401: Coaxing the Queen Mother
Xiao Jingchen coaxed: "If grandma wants to eat, it's not difficult. As long as Miss Lin Ruan is willing to open her shop in Kyoto, will grandma still worry about not having to eat in the future? ”
The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, and she turned her head to look at Lin Ruan: "You are the little girl who sent sweet potatoes that Chen'er said?" You made all these things? ”
Lin Ruan had a chance to salute, and as soon as he bent down, the Queen Mother said: "Excuse me, the mourning family doesn't need those false courtesies here." Come, give a seat. ”
Immediately, a maid moved a stool and asked Lin Ruan to sit down.
Lin Ruan thanked the Queen Mother and sat on the chair.
The Queen Mother glanced at Lin Ruan, and said with a puzzled expression: "Girl, why do you feel a little kind when you look at you?" ”
After that, he also beckoned Mama Hong over: "Look at it, does this girl look like a person?" ”
Mama Hong stared at Lin Ruan and looked at it, and said suspiciously: "The slave didn't see it, who does the Queen Mother think she looks like?" ”
The Queen Mother thought about it carefully and shook her head again: "This makes the mourning family say, and it is a little unspeakable." But I think she's a little kind, and I always feel like I've seen her before. ”
Lin Ruan smiled obediently: "The folk girl looks like an ordinary person, so the Queen Mother thinks that the folk girl has a good face." ”
The Queen Mother smiled: "If you look like an ordinary person, then I don't know how many girls are too ugly to go out." ”
After such a break, the Queen Mother also uncovered this stubble.
The Queen Mother smiled and asked, "Chen'er said just now, these things are made by you, girl, are you interested in opening a store in Kyoto?" ”
Lin Ruan replied: "The folk girl naturally thinks, after all, coming to Kyoto to open a store is the goal that the folk girl has set for herself, but the current ability of the folk girl is probably a little insufficient, so it may not be realistic, and she needs to wait a few more years." ”
The Queen Mother likes Lin Ruan's down-to-earth and ambitious personality very much.
"This is not a problem, there is a mourning family to escort you, and it is said that Kyoto is to let you come to this palace to do business, and it is also made."
Lin Ruan was stunned: "The Queen Mother is going to ......"
The Queen Mother smiled: "These things you make are very good, and the mourning family hopes that they can eat a few bites from time to time in the future." So, if you're interested in opening a store in Kyoto, the mourning family can be your backer. ”
Lin Ruan hurriedly stood up and thanked him: "Thank you Queen Mother for your kindness, it's just ......"
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows: "Just what?" ”
Lin Ruan was a little embarrassed: "It's just that the emperor just issued an order to let the folk girl be responsible for promoting sweet potatoes, and the folk girl is afraid that she won't be able to pull away." ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was also a little hesitant.
After all, the world's affairs are serious matters.
Anything else, make way for it.
Xiao Jingchen said in a timely manner: "The promotion will be the highlight next year." If you open the store this year and lay a good foundation, it will not affect next year's events. Moreover, your entourage is a manufacturable material, and the affairs of the capital are handed over to him to take care of, and the queen mother supports you, it is difficult for your store to stand firm in Kyoto. ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately laughed: "Girl, what do you think?" ”
Lin Ruan bit his lip and thought about it, then glanced at Xiao Jingchen again.
Xiao Jingchen nodded his head and motioned for her to respond.
Lin Ruan didn't have time to think about it, and nodded subconsciously: "Since the Queen Mother supports me, there is naturally no problem." ”
The Queen Mother stroked her palms and laughed: "Then you hurry up, shop ......"
Xiao Jingchen said: "I'll be responsible for the shop's affairs." The matter of manpower is not a problem. But grandma, we have to say it first, you can't eat these ice products every day in the future. ”
The Queen Mother waved her hand impatiently: "It's done, the mourning family is not a three-year-old child, can't you tell the difference between good and bad?" ”
The corners of Xiao Jingchen's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart, You are not much different from a three-year-old child now.
This matter was decided, and the Queen Mother asked about the sweet potato, and the content was similar to what the emperor asked.
However, he waved his hand at Lin Ruan's suggestion to get some sweet potatoes to taste first: "The emperor can eat them and think it's good, these sweet potatoes are not easy to come by, and they will have to be kept in the future, and eating one of them is equivalent to eating a lot of seedlings." When there is a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes next year, it will not be too late for the mourning family to eat it. ”
Lin Ruan listened to the Queen Mother's words, and his heart was a little moved.
She could see that the Queen Mother really cared about the people.
The Queen Mother is a kind old man, and after talking to Lin Ruan about business, she will take Lin Ruan to see her precious strawberry seedlings.
took Lin Ruan to the garden, pointed to the strawberry seedlings that were served very carefully, and said, "Girl, look, how well do the mourning family serve these strawberry seedlings?" ”
At this time, the strawberries have long passed the fruit-producing period, and the queen mother let these seedlings be raised with fat roots and strong leaves, and the green ones are in the piece, which looks very eye-catching.
Lin Ruan praised very appreciatively: "It's really good, and I will definitely be able to produce a lot of strawberries next year." ”
The Queen Mother was very proud: "The batch I got last year only hung fruit in the spring, and it bore a lot of fruit, and many people in this palace followed suit." ”
Lin Ruan had an idea, and hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, there is still a rare fruit in the people's daughter's place, it should be ripe now, if the Queen Mother is interested, the people's daughter will send a letter back and let someone send some to Kyoto." ”
Her big watermelon must have grown.
There are more than a dozen watermelons in total, and each one bears two melons, and half of them are sent to Kyoto, and she can keep half of them for seeding, which is completely enough.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately became interested: "What rare fruit?" ”
Lin Ruan said with a smile: "This thing is called watermelon, from the Western Regions, also known as cold melon, the melon is bright red, juicy and sweet, it is most suitable for eating in midsummer, especially after being chilled, it is the most thirst-quenching." ”
Just hearing her say this, the Queen Mother felt that she was full of tongue: "Wouldn't it be too troublesome to send a few watermelons over?" ”
Lin Ruan immediately said: "Don't bother, since the Minnu has decided to open a store in Kyoto, the Minnu's right-hand man is going to come to the capital, just let him bring it." ”
In this way, the Queen Mother immediately responded: "Then you will let someone bring it, what other good things do you have in your hands?" Or, let them all be brought together. ”
Lin Ruan couldn't cry or laugh: "The folk girl has this little thing in her hand right now, and when the folk girl gets other good things in the future, she will dedicate it to the Queen Mother." ”
The Queen Mother was not polite, and responded happily.
After all, every time Lin Ruan made a move, she won her heart, so she began to look forward to what kind of surprise this girl would bring her next.
When he came out of the palace, it was already afternoon, and at noon, Lin Ruan stayed in the palace and had lunch with the Queen Mother.
It's a shame that the two grandmothers yesterday temporarily taught her more things, otherwise she would really be blind.
So, no matter what you have, if you have the opportunity to learn something, you still have to learn more, maybe you will use it one day.
