The corn field of the Yu family, since the seeds landed, there are villagers nearby every day to see the rarity. Because it was the county prince of the capital who specially told him, the county prince attached great importance to it, and also sent the officials of the county government to come over to inspect every now and then. The village chief of Dongshan Village is even more proud to set up a patrol team, and there are people to help take care of it every day and night, which saves the Yu family a lot of trouble.

Most of the people in the village treat Yu Hai with respect for looking up. The village chief didn't dare to put the village chief on the shelf in front of him, and the village chief's sons who were promising, finally returned to the village once, and they all took the initiative to make friends with Yu Hai.

Just kidding, Yu Hai's family is definitely not what it used to be! first set up with the young owner of Zhenyulou, so that the future owners of the Zhou family looked at it differently. Then he recognized a godfather who was a general. This is not the end, now he has actually climbed to the county prince in Beijing! That's a real royal relative!

Being able to help the prince of the county is not only the pride of the Yu family, but also the pride of the entire Dongshan Village. In the future, if anyone wants to move Dongshan Village, they must first measure whether they are qualified or not, and they have to look at the face of the owner to beat the dog! King Jing's Mansion has built a villa on the boundary of Dongshan Village, so he has to protect their Dongshan Village. The village chief felt that his waist was straight, and he felt a sense of pride in front of the village chiefs of other villages.

And in the nearby ten miles and eight villages, there is no Yu Haijia who does not know that Dongshan Village is blessed by the prince of the county. Therefore, although there are many people who come to see the strange, none of them dare to come up with any bad ideas.

"Tsk, this is the corn that came back from the West? Why do you look similar to sorghum seedlings? You can't plant the wrong seed, right? Someone gloated.

The corn of the Yu family has only been planted for half a month, and it has begun to be jointed. The turquoise straw and wide leaves are like emerald flags waving in the breeze. Compared with the corn in the previous life, Yu Xiaocao relied on the cheat of the spirit stone liquid, and the sowing was earlier. The corn that was watered with the spirit stone liquid grew very quickly as expected. Normally, the corn that is jointed in about a month has been shortened by half, and it grows very lushly.

And the watermelon field next to it is also like a competition with someone, rising rapidly. Normal watermelons are sown in March and April and harvested in July and August. In the Yu family, the law of growth has long been broken. At the beginning of March, the land in the north had just thawed, and the melon seedlings of the Yu family had been raised and planted in the melon field.

In order to prevent freezing, grass and straw are also used in the melon field, and when the temperature is low at night, the melon seedlings are covered with a "quilt", and the weather becomes warmer at noon, and the melon seedlings begin to sunbathe. Even in the early spring, when the temperature is low, the melon seedlings still grow tenaciously.

At the end of April, the watermelons in the melon field had grown to the size of a ball. The turquoise watermelon, in the emerald green leaves, is like a naughty child, probing his brain to show a curious appearance. Yu Hai walked around the melon field, found a few early-ripening watermelons, and thought about his daughter in the town, and when she was going to go to the town tomorrow, he would bring her two to try them.

Wang Ergou trotted over with a smile, looked at the picked watermelon, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Brother Dahai, there are already ripe watermelons?" Great! In a short time, our watermelons can be picked in a large area, right? ”

Yu Hai hugged the largest watermelon, stuffed it into Ergouzi's hand, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Ergou, you have worked hard for the past two months!" This watermelon, you take it back and try it!! Don't worry, watermelons will definitely be given priority to you this year!! ”

This year, six acres of watermelons were planted, and according to last year's output, it is estimated that it should be able to produce nearly 100,000 catties of watermelons. Dongshan Village saw that the Yu family and Wang Ergou sold watermelons last year and made a lot of money, and their minds were lively, so they had already quietly had a close relationship with Yu Haila, hoping to get a wholesale quota.

Because there is a limit to the number of watermelons that can ripen every day, not everyone can agree to it. After some distress, Yu Hai chose several companies with good relationships, and the others declined. People who are rejected are definitely not happy in their hearts, but now they want money and money, and they want to have a backstage, what can you do if you are not happy?

Yu Xiaocao, who takes care of her godmother and little brother in the town, although she can't go back to Dongshan Village every day, she has been thinking about the melon field in her heart! Counting on my fingers every day, it won't be long before the watermelon should be on the market. She wondered if she would like to rent a shop in town to sell watermelons this year.

Although the two shops near Zhenyu Lou have a good location, they have been rented out after all, and they have signed a three-year long-term lease. If you choose a random place to rent a shop, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve the boom of business last year. was so entangled, her father Yu Hai brought a few precocious watermelons to visit his baby girl.

The house town went to the dock, and the housekeeper invited Yu Hai into the study in the front yard, and asked someone to go to the inner courtyard to invite the eldest lady. For the master, a farmer-born god-in-law, the housekeeper did not dare to be the slightest neglect. Not to mention the master's attitude towards this god-in-law, even if he looks at his daughter, who is more valued than the master's own daughter, no one dares to look down on him.

The housekeeper has been following him since he was named a general in the house town, and because of his loyalty and ability, he was given a surname with his master. To be given a surname, among the servants, that is an infinite glory! Whether it is in the general's mansion in the capital or in the mansion of Tanggu, the housekeeper is second only to the master.

Although Yu Hai is loyal, he is not wooden. He knew that if his daughter wanted to live comfortably in the house, she couldn't offend the housekeeper. Picking one of the watermelons he brought and handing it to the housekeeper, Yu Hai said with a smile: "The watermelons produced by myself are not worth a few dollars." Let's try it out with the housekeeper! ”

Is there a watermelon at this time? As the chief housekeeper of the General's Mansion, the housekeeper is naturally not the kind of person who has never seen the world. His own master is very favored by the emperor, and the master can always be rewarded with some watermelons that are paid tribute every year. The master is generous to his subordinates, and he also tastes it from time to time. However, isn't watermelon used to relieve the heat in the middle of summer? Why is it that the watermelon is ripe before summer starts?

Although there were doubts in his heart, the housekeeper still accepted the gift happily and thanked him sincerely. Seeing the eldest lady coming from the inner courtyard, he excused himself and retreated. The housekeeper came to Tanggu this time, and he brought his family over. Bringing the watermelon to his house, his two young sons greeted him with a cheer: "Watermelon? Dad, why are you willing to buy such an expensive thing for us to eat? ”

The corner of the housekeeper's mouth twitched, slapped the youngest son's buttocks, and said with a smile: "When did your father be reluctant to treat you?" This watermelon was rewarded by the general's godparents, and there is no place to buy it at this time! ”

"You grew it yourself, right? Last year, I heard from the people in Zhang's Mansion next door that the Yu family's watermelons are big, sweet, and much cheaper than in Beijing! At that time, adults lived in Dongshan Village, and watermelons must be indispensable to eat! The housekeeper's fifteen-year-old eldest son took the watermelon with a smile and couldn't wait to find the knife as he spoke.

The housekeeper's daughter-in-law, who is in charge of the kitchen in the inner courtyard, is not in the house at this time. The eldest son led the two younger brothers and quickly cut the watermelon, and the red melon pulp dripped tempting juice down the blade, and the sweet taste came to the nose. The youngest son, who was only six years old, was swallowing saliva without a smile, and his eyes seemed to be glued with super glue, staring at the watermelon without blinking.

The housekeeper couldn't help but smile and patted the little guy's buttocks again, thinking in his heart that with the age of his youngest son, he would be a personal servant for the little master in the future, and the difference should not be too big, right? Everything in the General's Mansion will definitely be the little master in the future...... Looks like he has to teach this little son himself!

"Butler, big butler......" A slightly flustered voice came into the ears of the housekeeper. It's Lao Zhou in the gatehouse, could it be that something happened to the door?

The housekeeper didn't bother to enjoy the delicious watermelon with his son, and hurried out of the house. I saw the porter Lao Zhou trotting in, and the expression on his face didn't know whether he was excited or panicked.

"The Great Butler...... Yang...... Yangjun Wang...... Yangjun Wang ......, "Because he was in a hurry, Lao Zhou was out of breath and spoke intermittently, but the housekeeper died in a hurry."

"King Yangjun? King Yangjun is here? Our lady is friendly with Princess Jing, could it be that the king of Yangjun came to visit his wife on the order of the princess? "My master has nothing to do with King Jing's Mansion, let alone the withdrawn and arrogant King Yangjun. Apart from this reason, the housekeeper really can't think of a second possibility.

Lao Zhou first nodded, and then kept shaking his head heavily. He slapped his chest a few times, and finally stopped breathing, and then said loudly: "King Yangjun personally came to the door, saying that he wanted to see our eldest lady!" ”

Since the little master of the house spoke out, the house town couple ordered people to call their goddaughter the eldest lady, in order to show that Yu Xiaocao's status in the hearts of their husband and wife was transcendent, comparable to their own birth.

King Yangjun wants to see the eldest lady? When did the eldest lady know that cold-faced county king? Although the housekeeper had doubts in his heart, he kept personally welcoming him out of the mansion and respectfully invited the king of Yangjun into the mansion.

"King Jun, our eldest lady is in the living room of the outer courtyard at this time, please ......" The housekeeper was respectful and polite, but not cowardly.

That girl in the living room? When will it be the turn of a little girl to entertain guests? It seems that that girl has a good status in the hearts of General Fang and his wife! Zhu Junyang's pair of deep phoenix eyes shone with the light of inquiry.

Yu Xiaocao, who came out of the living room after getting the news, saw the young man who was bathed in the sun, but seemed to be cut off from all the heat. Next to the emerald green and upright bamboo, the young man who exudes a faint and indifferent atmosphere comes from the backlight, and under the reflection of the warm spring sun, the hair scattered on the shoulders of the young man reflects a circle of dazzling light......
