Chapter 1493: Bad Luck Girl Eats Melon and Farms (27)
Xu Yin didn't know that she had fallen off the horse.
After she coaxed her mother-in-law into a smile, she went to draw flatbread for the next people:
"It's true that after the beginning of spring, there are thorns all over the mountains, but if you can eat a sweet and refreshing thorn mound while roasting the fire in the ice and snow winter, is it completely different? The same goes for water melon, it is not uncommon to eat water melon in summer, and eating around the stove in the cold winter is another feeling of enjoyment. However, Mrs. Ben, like you, is also the first time to try, if it succeeds, everyone is happy, and if it doesn't work, it's okay, it should be regarded as an experience, at least let Mrs. Ben die, no longer fantasize about eating melons around the fireplace in winter...... But don't feel that you are busy in vain, but anyone who participates in this work, whether it is successful or not, will be rewarded when you look back! ”
As soon as I heard that there was a reward, the interest of the people was high.
In the past few days, I have heard the maids and maids from the east courtyard brag, saying that when they are in the house, as long as they do what the young grandmother instructs, they can draw a lottery once a month, and they can get a few copper plates with the worst luck, and when they are lucky, they can draw gold and silver fruits. If you perform well and get the Model Worker Award, you will get more rewards than the moon silver!
The subordinates of the hot spring Zhuangzi didn't understand and asked: "What is the Model Worker Award?" ”
The subordinates of the East Courtyard were asked: What is the Model Worker Award?
This...... Name implies......
Well, to be honest, they have participated in the selection and lottery for many months, and they still don't know why the most diligent person in charge of the work is called a model worker, which must be a title. It doesn't matter! The important thing is that the rewards are real money!
With the power of money, the work of the subordinates is obviously much easier.
Besides, they also want to see if the method that the young grandmother thinks of can grow thorny lumps and water melons that can only be eaten in spring and summer.
The crowd gathered firewood and the flame was high.
Within a few days, the ground was opened, the grass curtain was erected, the seeds were sown, and then it was time for daily watering, fertilization, and careful maintenance.
At that time, the second lady was also very busy, but thinking that the family in the East Courtyard went to Zhuangzi, and the big and small things in the house were in her hands, a little happiness rose in her heart.
When the snow fell outside the city, the hot spring Zhuangzi sent someone to bring a message, saying that the eldest prince was unwell and was afraid that it would be difficult to return home for the New Year, and he hoped that the old lady Haihan would be hopeful.
The old lady felt quite regretful, I thought that this year's New Year would be reunited, but a few years ago, because the eldest grandson was unconscious, the New Year was light and light, and there was no taste.
I didn't expect ......
"Ugh." The old lady sighed, "Zhao'er's body bones are still affected in the end." ”
Chengjue's matter, it seems that he really has to consider a replacement.
The second lady said a few words of comfort, and she was very happy in her heart.
It's just right that the family of three in the East Courtyard doesn't come back!
The glass greenhouse that Xu worked hard to make her cheaper!
is worried about the New Year's gift and the favor is the old ones, lack of novelty, now, the fresh vegetables grown in the glass greenhouse can be added to the gift list.
This year, there are more people to give gifts to the future Yue family of two sons, this gift, you have to put some thought into it, but you can't slack off.
The second lady carried a fine pen and solemnly added seasonal fresh vegetables that are particularly popular in winter to the gift list.
Considering that fresh vegetables are best picked and delivered, the second lady did not prepare in advance.
But on the auspicious day of the New Year's Festival, people were sent to pick vegetables in the glazed greenhouse of the Bagua Field in the East Courtyard.
After harvesting, the dirty roots are removed, cleaned and placed in a basket with a red seal, and loaded into a carriage with other gifts to give gifts.
The person she sent had not yet walked out of the West Courtyard, and heard that the four princes were coming, and they also brought the rich rewards from each palace to Xue Zhaojin and his wife, saying that he brought the vegetables in the palace a while ago, so that his father and Emperor Long Yan were happy.
"Before Ah Jin set off to the hot spring Zhuangzi, he told the palace that the vegetables in the glazed greenhouse should be kept in the house for the New Year, and the rest would be handed over to the palace. Since the father and mother are so fond of the fresh vegetables grown in the glazed greenhouse, the rest of the palace will be taken away. ”
When the two carriages were full of rewards and pulled into the east courtyard, they were replaced with two carts of vegetables that were usually so cheap that they were so cheap, and the second lady was very blushing.
I already knew that when the east courtyard was engaged in a big construction of gossip fields and glazed greenhouses, she also copied and built one in the west courtyard. Then the reward for these two carriages from the palace today, wouldn't she also have her share?
It's a big loss, it's a big loss!
The second lady felt that her heart hurt again.
When she reacted, the vegetables in the glazed greenhouse were almost empty by the people brought by the four princes, and what was left was only enough for the house to eat for the winter, and it was not necessarily enough to send two baskets to her mother's family.
A basket can be made up, but gifts have always been given in pairs, how ugly a basket is!
In addition, she also wants to send some samples to her two in-laws!
What's going on?
The gift list was added, but the gift was gone......
The thought of having to copy a gift list again when she went back made the second lady feel bad.
The key is that the old lady didn't mention sending a fresh vegetable to her mother's family to try it, and she was embarrassed to take the initiative to mention it.
In the end, I could only quietly deduct a little from the West Courtyard and send it to my mother's house.
For this reason, the two sons have opinions about her: they can't eat enough, and they send them out.
Not to mention those two little beasts, if she hadn't sent someone to keep an eye on her, she would have gone to Rong'an Courtyard to find the old lady to complain.
The family didn't want to see her, and when she returned to her parents' house in the second year of junior high school, her mother's family was very polite to her, which made her feel a lot better.
Thinking that the three members of the Dafang family are all celebrating the New Year in Zhuangzi outside the city this year, the first snow is three days, the carriage is no longer able to go across, no one runs errands for Zhong Minhua, and the Zhong family is afraid that they can't even get a green vegetable leaf, right?
The old lady saw that there were not many vegetables in the shed, and she really didn't plan to send them out, and the gifts to her in-laws were prepared according to the usual practice.
But before the first snow accumulated, Zhong Minhua sent someone from Zhuangzi to his mother's house to transport a wagon of fresh vegetables from Xu Yin's hands, which grew better than those grown in the glazed greenhouses in the house.
And there are also a few more fresh fruits and vegetables that are not available in the house: a basket of large fruits that are sweeter and brighter than the wild thorns; Two large watermelons with thin skin and few red seeds, and six purple cabbages.
Most of the watermelons are not ripe yet, and these few are ripened by Xu Yin quietly with Lingquan water and the ripening agent configured in the Taoyuan Star-Breath loam, so there are not many, and the two of them will try it out in a family.
How to eat purple cabbage, Xu Yin wrote it on a piece of paper, so as not to eat it badly.
Not only the Zhong family, but also the Four Princes' Mansion also sent one.
The government only sent thorns, water melons and purple cabbage, and other vegetables were not delivered.
And it was the last to be delivered, and when it was delivered, the snow outside the city was already very thick.
The little guy in charge of giving gifts is reporting to the old lady, saying that the eldest prince told him to finish this errand and stay in the house for the New Year, and wait for the ice and snow to melt in the spring before going to the hot spring Zhuangzi to serve. In this way, he can be reunited with his family, and his father and mother are both working in the house.
The old lady nodded while listening, and asked about the eldest grandson's physical condition.
The little guy picked what he could say, and didn't say a word about what he couldn't.
At this time, the second lady came back from her mother's house, saw the melons and fruits in the basket out of season, and learned that they were planted by Dafang in the hot spring village, and sent some samples to the house and her mother's family, and suddenly felt that her cheeks were hot and painful.
The front foot is still proud, Zhong Minhua can't compare to her filial piety, and the back foot is compared.
couldn't help but say sourly in front of the old lady: "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be quite caring, accompanying Zhao'er to the hot spring Zhuangzi to recuperate, and not forgetting to command people to grow vegetables and fruits." But how do you send such a point? There are so many people in the house, how can they be divided? ”
The coachman lowered his eyebrows and replied: "Second lady, the eldest prince said that although the amount is small, it is he and the eldest young grandmother who personally breed and water it, and specially honor the old lady." “
The implication is that these are for Rong'an Academy, and if you don't have anything to do with the West Courtyard, don't think about dividing it.
The old lady was relieved when she heard this.
The second lady was so angry that she almost suffered internal injuries.
