readx;
After Cui Miaotong became pregnant, everything went well, and the family was a little overwhelmed by waves of blessings. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But as a pregnant woman, you can't see people, this is the rule, Cui Miaotong knows, but it seems that she has never taken these rules seriously, and whenever someone comes, she comes to receive it in person.
The people who came saw Cui Miaotong holding her unbulging belly, and after some greetings, she left in a hurry.
Cui Miaotong only did this for a reason.
The husband said, bad luck or something, it's nonsense, and not letting the child be affected is the top priority.
So in order to let these people leave as soon as possible, Cui Miaotong got up to receive them in person.
These people have serious feudal thoughts, and they are afraid of contaminating themselves with bad luck, so after putting down the gift, they saw Cui Miaotong walking towards him, and after greeting him from a distance, he put it away.
Cui Miaotong's smile is really cute, and Lao Meng's daughter-in-law said that this child will be terrible in the future.
Two smart children are not at least stupid.
However, Cui Miaotong didn't think so, she felt that it was enough for the child to be healthy and happy.
This was more or less influenced by Wu Xi's later thoughts.
The crown prince went straight to the Wu Mansion this time to see what kind of grain with a yield of fifteen stones per mu that Wu Xi boasted about was.
This time, Cui Miaotong did not come forward, and all the big and small affairs were handed over to Lao Meng to take care of.
Lao Meng did not live up to the trust of the hostess, and after meeting the prince, he entertained the guests in full accordance with the royal etiquette.
How do you know that people don't eat this set at all, the prince said that it is better to follow the same way last time, the royal etiquette is too cumbersome, even he, the prince, is a little overwhelmed.
Finally left the capital, and should no longer be strangled by royal etiquette.
The court officials who came with him also meant the same thing.
As a result, there was a sound of joy in the Wu Mansion, so it was not lively.
Since Wu Xi grows greenhouse vegetables, which is what people call summer grain, it should be time to harvest at this time.
Lao Meng is a very traditional person, in the case of disasters everywhere this year, there is still grain harvested in the Wu Mansion, this is the God bless Wu family.
Therefore, before the official harvest the next day, in front of the temple specially built for Wu Mansion in the backyard, worship the heavens and the earth, and beg for tomorrow's harvest to proceed smoothly.
The crown prince had no choice but to participate in the prayer ceremony in the Wu Mansion.
It's all nonsense like thanking God, Zhao Heng doesn't know how many times he's said it, it's all nonsense to deceive ghosts, anyway, his own wish has never been fulfilled.
Cui Miaotong, with Xiaomei's support, took a look from afar and left, these things are not for women's families to participate, let alone a pregnant woman.
The next day, the harvesting ceremony officially began, and the reason why it was carried out like this was also specially instructed by the head of the family when he left.
Whether a thing is expensive or not depends on how high the person who creates the momentum defines him, and there are many business tricks in it, which is to sell a worthless tattered thing at a good price.
The more you pay attention, the more mysterious others feel, and the rumors outside will automatically build momentum for you, and then your value will rise quietly.
This is a marketing method, and Wu Xi has seen it a lot in later generations.
Although it is a very ordinary potato, Wu Xi said that after he ate it to cure diseases, it would be spread among the people immediately that this potato can prolong life.
That's misinterpretation, that's the charm of rumors.
After such a toss by Lao Meng, Zhao Huan was really as solemn as he was to harvest potatoes like an audience to a god.
When plowing the land, he was also cautious, for fear of annoying the land lord below, and would not give you fifteen stone of grain.
A potato was carefully planed by Zhao Huan, slowly revealing his true face.
Then, under the instruction of Lao Meng, he slowly picked up the potatoes, put them on his forehead, and prayed sincerely that God would give the world a new species.
Then the officials below followed suit en masse.
Cui Miaotong and Xiaomei stood behind the rockery and laughed back and forth.
What the husband said is really reasonable, these people worship potatoes as gods, and it seems that they will definitely be able to sell them for a good price this time.
"Selling potatoes to the royal family?"
Xiaomei said nervously, I have never heard of it, as a courtier, don't they all pay tribute?
"What's the matter? No, when the husband left, he said that these potatoes should give the royal family some blood, otherwise they would not care about the value of these potatoes at all. ”
"The master's ideas are always strange, even the royal family of Shanggong said it so justifiably that people can't find any reason to refute it, and in the end, they obediently paid the silver. ”
When Xiaomei talked about Wu Xi, her eyes were full of admiration.
"You're a nymphomaniac again, if you're willing, it's good to be a maid who has a room, you just don't want to.
I'm pregnant with a child now, I definitely can't serve my husband, I don't want him to go out to find those indiscreet women, fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, not to mention that you are my personal maid, you have a good home, I am also very happy.
You are interested in the master, and the Wu family will not treat you badly, what else are you not willing to do?"
Cui Miaotong is doing ideological work for Xiaomei, Xiaomei always says that she doesn't want to share a husband with Miss, and feels that she has robbed Miss of her favor, although she also wants to be Wu Xi's concubine in her heart, but she can't.
Xiaomei shook her head firmly and said: "Miss, don't persuade me, my mind has been decided, if you are good for me, when I have someone I like, let me marry, it is the greatest gift to Xiaomei." ”
Cui Miaotong shook her head, this little girl always says that she doesn't listen, so that's it, people don't want to, it's also for their own good.
Under the labor of the sycophant officials of the imperial court, all the potatoes on the other side of the greenhouse finally came out, piled up in the yard like a hill.
Zhao Huan looked at these potatoes with a long mouth in shock, and his eyes seemed to be overflowing with tears.
Regardless of whether the tears at this time are real or for show, Zhao Huan should get applause.
It is a matter of people's livelihood, Zhao Huan is still atmospheric, and he is already planning for his future.
Zhao Ji's current health is deteriorating, and he needs Taoist pills to maintain his body, which he knows, if Zhao Ji ascends to heaven that day, he will take over the world of the Zhao family in an all-round way, which is also the reason why he has often patrolled the sky recently.
A quasi-emperor always needs to know what his world is like, who he is, and how society works, so that after sitting on the throne, he can be a good emperor.
Zhao Huan was born in the family of the king of the earth, and when he was a child, there was an emperor who specially taught the art of the emperor, and he acted in the courtyard of Wu Xi's house without any psychological pressure.
Wu Xi definitely didn't brag, this is what Zhao Huan wanted to say in his heart, according to the measurements of his subordinate officials, the yield of potatoes like a hill is only one-tenth of an acre of land, and it has reached as much as five stones, so if it is calculated, the output of potatoes in one acre of land can reach an astonishing fifty stones.
Zhao Huan was shocked by such a number.
immediately said that after returning to Beijing, he would definitely show his father and the emperor and reward the Wu family with things like that.
However, the Wu Mansion seemed to be very dissatisfied with this result.
If a matter related to the people's livelihood can be dismissed with a few words of reward, it is too unreasonable to take the land lord seriously.
The officials below opened their mouths wide in surprise and were speechless.
No one has ever dared to negotiate terms in front of the royal family.
The royal people can come to your house to sit, it is the greatest grace to you, this Wu Xi is really brainless, I don't know where the royal face is, this is obviously to benefit the royal family.
But Zhao Huan didn't care at all, because he had a pleasant conversation with Wu Xi, this young man who was about the same age as him, had a lot of ideas, and it was reasonable to be able to say that he could sell grain to the royal family.
"Okay, according to what your family master said, 10,000 guan, not a single son will be less, but in this way, the imperial court will buy potatoes and corn from your house in the form of buying and selling, and there will be no more rewards, you must know that the royal reward is much more than this mere 10,000 guan, and the economic benefits are much better, do your family masters really think about it?"
Zhao Huan was full of anger when he spoke, and some people could not refute him, he was patrolling the sky on behalf of the sky, and what he said was what the Son of Heaven said, and it could not be changed.
That's what the head of the family said when he left, resolutely don't give a reward, ask for money. ”
"Hahaha......"
Zhao Huan laughed loudly, he didn't expect that when this goblin guy was still confused, he just couldn't understand why he didn't want to put the royal family last time, what was it for.
If you can't figure it out, you don't want to, this is Zhao Huan's consistent style of doing things, and it's not easy to get into the horns if you do this.
"Okay, that's it, the potatoes and corn will be taken away by the palace today, if you want money, let your family live in the capital to get it in person, as long as others come, the royal family will definitely not rely on his little money." ”
After speaking, he waved his big hand and led everyone away.
The rest of the thing was what the prefect of the planter said, loading the potatoes and corn all over the yard into the car and pulling them away.
Although Lao Meng didn't know why the head of the family did this, he knew that the head of the family must have his reasons for doing this, so he no longer regretted that such a good thing was given to others.
Zhou Tong and Divine Doctor Qiu were standing not far away.
"Is this kid in the water, this is like the best opportunity for the royal reward, after this village, there will be no palace. ”
Doctor Qiu also didn't understand Wu Xi's approach.
Zhou Tong touched his beard and said: "You are wrong, the more things that are related to the imperial court, the more you have to deal with it like this, I think this kid's approach is very good, once and for all, it is not uncommon for him to be rewarded, and he has to go out to earn military merits."
Since you didn't take the royal last time in your eyes, there is nothing wrong with cashing out. ”
"But ......"
"It's nothing, but this kid is a goblin, what he thinks, you can never guess, you cure your people, I'll just drink my wine, just let them deal with the rest, a lot of age, the person who should worry about you is you." ”
When Doctor Qiu heard it, isn't that the truth?
Shaking his head and following Zhou Dong.
