Chapter 1160: Famine, Natural Disasters 317

Since it is a place for the master to watch, the prince said that he would not bring a foreign man to play, if he met a foreign man here, she really had a mouth and couldn't tell.

"Sister Yuan, don't worry, no one comes in here on weekdays."

"Really?" Yuan Youniang asked uncertainly.

Mingyi nodded, "The prince doesn't like others to come in, and there are only a few servants on weekdays; Sister Yuan can be quiet here, and if you are tired, my sister will take you to the courtyard where I live to rest."

"That's right! Thank you Sister Mingyi, my sister knows; Then let's walk around here, the flowers and plants over there are really blooming, luxuriant and vibrant."

It's good that no outsiders come in, and Yuan Youniang is in the mood to enjoy the scenery when she relaxes; The small garden is divided into a large flower bed and many small flower beds, each of which is planted with different precious flowers and trees.

For example, there are various colors of peonies planted in the middle, and there are several colors of plum, orchids, chrysanthemums and other precious flowers and plants next to them.

When spring comes, two kinds of plum are still blooming, orchids and chrysanthemums are also blooming, and the colors are immediately bright.

She lives here on weekdays and has seen a lot, but she doesn't feel much amazing.

"These are all planted by the prince of the world.......," Mingyi introduced her the same, "Sister Yuan likes it very much."

Staring at the flowers, the eyes shine, but not greed, but pure appreciation.

The northwest is desolate, and it also takes a lot of manpower and material resources to raise flowers and grasses; Therefore, it is rare to cherish flowers and plants in the northwest, but it is not difficult in the south.

Yuan Youniang smiled and shook her head, "I don't like it very much, I like it very, very much; I remember that General Huaihua's house also had a garden, planted some orchids and chrysanthemums, which were relatively easy to survive. But it can only be seen when the Huaihua General's Mansion has a banquet, and the other mansions don't have too many cherished flowers and trees, and one or two are already excellent. I didn't expect to see so many flowers and trees in the palace, which is really a blessing."

There are so few rare flowers and trees in the Northwest?!

Mingyi hasn't been to the family circle here, so she doesn't know about it; Zhou Ting will not tell her this, as for Mama Zhao and Mama Rong, what they teach is mostly the rules of the family and the genealogy of the family. Maybe the two grandmothers just thought she knew, this matter was troublesome.

"Sister Yuan likes it so much, you can try to raise some."

"That can't be." Yuan Youniang chuckled, "Sister Mingyi, you have also seen the cold of the cold winter and the moon in the northwest when you came to the northwest, and the rare flowers and trees are very delicate; It takes a lot of energy to serve, and even if you move them into the house in the winter, you have to consider whether their roots will be burned by the floor heating."

"That's a pity." Mingyi looked at Zhou Ting's small garden, and at this moment he was deeply aware of the rarity of these flowers and trees.

Yuan Youniang covered her lips and smiled, "My sister is a person with great blessings."

"Huh?" Full of doubts, his eyes came out, "Why did Sister Yuan say that?"

Just, quite suddenly.

"It's nothing, I just think Sister Mingyi is blessed." Yuan Youniang didn't elaborate, and Mingyi didn't ask in detail, since people didn't want to say it, it would be inappropriate for her to ask again.

It is taboo to talk shallow and deep.

"Sister Yuan is also a blessed person, born in the family of the eunuch, she doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking."

Mingyi said sincerely, and he really thinks so; In life, it is a great blessing to be able to eat and drink without worrying, not to mention being born in the family of an official eunuch who pampered his daughter.

Yuan Youniang heard the kindness in her words, but she didn't think much about it.

"Yes! Being able to eat and drink without worrying is already a matter of accumulating virtue in the previous life, so that I can be reborn under the knees of my father." She smiled slightly, put down her hand and looked at Mingyi, with a faint banter in her eyes, "What does Mingyi's sister do at home?"

"Studying at home, farming, and playing in the mountains are nothing special."

Yuan Youniang's eyebrows moved lightly, and she asked curiously, "I take the liberty of asking, I heard that Sister Yiyi fled to the northwest?"

"Yes, there is a great drought in the south, and the vassal kings have repeatedly recruited soldiers, and the people cannot survive; In order to find a way out, the ten rooms and nine empty rooms on the southern side have come out to find a way out."

"I only heard my dad say that the south side is big

In turmoil, many of the vassal kings have rebelled; Fortunately, we have the Zhou Wangfu in the northwest to hold it steadily, otherwise, our northwest will also be affected. Sister Mingyi may tell me about the situation in the south? I have asked my father many times these days, both openly and secretly, but he refuses to elaborate."

Mingyi smiled undiminishedly and continued to chat with her about what she had seen along the way. The two girls have the heart to chat, and they don't ask any questions that can't be said, there is no hostility towards each other, Yuan Youniang is a gentle and obedient character, and she is also a sincere and gentle person, and she also agrees to talk.

After chatting, there was a sadness between Yuan Youniang's eyebrows.

Mingyi didn't ask, and Yuan Youniang didn't say, the two stayed in the small garden for two quarters of an hour and then went back to the yard where the girls in the front yard were playing.

The girls have been playing for several rounds, and it's a pleasure to see what they're still playing.

"Sister Mingyi, I'll go talk to my mother, are you going?"

Mingyi didn't want to get together with the female youth, so she nodded in response, "That's right, let's be together."

"Okay."

The two walked into the side hall with their front and back feet, and Yuan Youniang said to Mingyi and returned to her mother; I saw Yuan Youniang's mother comforting her gently, saying something, Mingyi had no intention of listening. Just about to walk to the princess's side, I saw Zhou Ting standing at the door of the back hall and waving to her.

Mingyi looked at the ladies in the side hall who gathered in twos and threes to chat, and Princess Zhou was no exception, surrounded by several noblewomen.

She minimized her presence and walked towards Zhou Ting; As soon as he arrived at the door of the inner hall, his wrist was pulled, and the person was pulled into the inner hall at once.

Looking at Zhou Tingjun's face with a smile, his eyes were full of affection, and Mingyi raised his eyebrows.

"Chaosheng, aren't you entertaining male guests, why did you come here?"

Zhou Ting took out a palm-sized oiled paper bag from his sleeve and handed it to her as if offering a treasure, "Eat quietly, I specially let you not prepare it for you."

Mingyi opened it in confusion and saw that it was mutton, her eyes were slightly bright, and she knew that she was full of joy without looking at it.

"Roast sheep!"

Seeing her laughing and smiling, Zhou Ting smiled and squinted; Dingding looked at her and smiled, just looking at him like this, his heart couldn't stop jumping.

"Yes, eat quickly, such a small packet can only barely fill your stomach; When the banquet is over, we'll go back and eat enough, and we'll bring back steak."

"Thank you Chaosheng, let's go, let's find a place to eat."

A handful of unfolded oiled paper was re-wrapped, and Zhou Ting's wrist was dragged away; The two of them found a rockery where no one was around, and sat down on a relatively clean stone at will, Mingyi opened the oiled paper bag again, and didn't care if his hands were clean, so he ate a piece first.

Zhou Ting looked at her with a smile, and did not mean to stretch out his hand.

Seeing this, Mingyi twisted a piece and sent it to his mouth, "If you don't eat cleanly, you won't get sick, you can eat too; You are much more tired than me in entertaining male guests, and I have the princess as the host in the side hall, which is much easier than you."
