Chapter 115: Offering to Enter the Palace

oozing out of their noses, eyes, and ears...What does it mean to frame Jia RenWhat is cheating in an examWhat does it mean to be kicked outAt this time, Liu Kui, Wang Sheng, and the little bookboy we..."My lord, please be careful and don't strain your back!" Mrs. Liu chided, but towards the chilled melons and fragrant melons on the table, she was also strangely amazed. 。Liu Zhiheng and his wife have a good relationship, as always after many years. Seeing that his wife likes it now, he calls the servants to get a knife. 。The large watermelon was cut in half, revealing its bright red flesh and black seeds embedded within, each one distinct. 。He cut it into pieces with his own hands, then brought a plate to the study in the front yard for his old father. On the way, he called his children and daughters to the back yard to eat some fresh 。Liu Lao Ye also was surprised, "Where did this cold melon come from, it looks really good! I haven't heard of foreign tribes offering tribute." 。" Tianwu is now being beaten like a stray dog by the barbarians, hiding in Jiangnan to barely survive. Let alone paying tribute, I'm afraid that even if the vassal states don't harass the border, it would be a good thing. 。Liu Zhiheng personally picked out the seeds from the winter melon and then presented it with both hands to his elderly father. 。"Father, do you still remember Suijin Beach" 。This is the very estate where Jin Rou resided, a place with not only hot spring valleys but also a stretch of riverbank. It's said that during springtime, the Lord sought out and planted gourd vines there. 。I didn't take it seriously, thinking it wouldn't grow. I didn't expect that today Jiner would have someone bring me this cold melon, and two golden fragrant melons, they look really good. 。Mr. Liu took a bite of the cold melon, and his whole face softened with sweetness. 。"This is really good stuff. Before, people have tried growing it, but they were all small and didn't taste as good. This one is much better." 。Everyone thought Tianwu's land was unsuitable for growing this kind of gourd, but unexpectedly, a small place like Suijin Tan actually grew it. 。Li Zhiheng's eyes were greedy, he reached out and picked up a piece, eating it in a few bites. 。"Father, Jinrou's meaning is for me to help sell all the cold melons and fragrant melons from Suijin Beach." 。"

Mr. Liu nodded, "You agree, this thing will definitely be popular, it's also good to make more connections for the family." 。Bring me dozens of the first batch that were picked. I want to offer them at the palace. 。“ Liu Zhiheng immediately agreed. The emperor wanted to summon his father back to court, but his father never agreed. However, he occasionally went to the palace to chat with the emperor. ” 。Since we're selling both winter melon and muskmelon at home, it would be unwise not to offer some to the Emperor first. Otherwise, people will surely talk. 。Moreover, this cold melon is truly excellent; it's absolutely the right choice for an offering. 。Soon, Liu Zhiheng returned to the backyard. His wife and children had already finished eating watermelon and were eyeing two fragrant melons while laughing. 。Liu Zhiheng, upon seeing this, gave a watermelon to his wife and children. The taste was even better than the winter melon. 。Watermelon is refreshing, especially suitable for men to eat heartily. 。But watermelon is suitable for women, with a fragrant and rich flavor, sweeter than loofah by a few points. 。He changed his clothes directly, gave a few instructions, and hurriedly took people to Suijin Beach. 。Mrs. Cui was accompanying Jia Yin in playing with flower strings, while Old Lady Li was picking vegetables beside them. The three of them occasionally chatted, making it quite lively. 。Originally, Zhao Yuru was responsible for cooking and preparing meals. Now that the third child's family has moved to Luo'an, the elderly woman has taken over the cooking duties. 。After all, there are sons-in-law and grandchildren in the family who all have jobs and earn work points every day. They can't make them come home after a hard day's work and then have to worry about dinner. 。But with a family of seven or eight, plus several elderly gentlemen like Zhao Shushu, cooking for over ten people was no easy feat. 。Fortunately, while Mrs. Cui was staying here temporarily, Qionghua would help out. 。Mrs. Cui went back to the estate, and Winter Plum and Ye Shan from next door would also lend a helping hand. 。The couple quietly guarded Ye Gongzi's small courtyard. They were usually silent, only occasionally taking Jia Yin out to play for a while, never causing any trouble. 。On the contrary, the old woman was afraid they would be bored, and often invited them to eat together, come and chat. 。At that very moment, Qiao's wife came in from outside and smilingly reported. 。"Madam, Lord Liu of the Liu family has arrived. He went directly to the melon field with the village head and Mr. Er." 。"I heard they're going to count how many winter melons are in the field!" "That's a big job, counting all the winter melons in several acres of land. It won't be easy to figure out in half a day!" 。“Li Lao Tai smiled and entrusted Qing's wife, “Go to the valley and tell Lao Si's daughter-in-law to cook a few dishes to bring back for dinner to entertain Liu Lao Ye.” 。“

Qiong Caizi went to do as she was told. Jia Yin, anxious to join in the fun, hugged Cui Fu Ren's neck and shook her, "Master Aunt, go, go count the cold melons!"

Cui Fu Ren laughed and patted her little head, "You can't even count yet, what are you joining in for" 。“Although she said that, she still got up and said to her aunt, “Aunt, I’ll take Fu Niu for a walk.” 。"Go on, go on, she's making a nuisance of herself at home anyway." 。The old woman entered the house and found a specially made gauze hat, covering her granddaughter from head to toe in light gauze before letting them out. 。Jia Yin wanted to take off the light gauze because it felt restrictive, twisting her body as she did so. However, Cui Fu ren pressed down on her small hand and said, “Don’t you remember a few days ago when you were bitten all over” Jia Yin immediately became obedient. The previous night, when she had returned from the valley with her grandmother, mosquitoes had chased after them and bitten them all the way back. 。If it weren't for her brother running to find the old doctor for medicine, she wouldn't have been able to sleep at night. 。That ointment was so effective. She scratched for two whole days before the red bumps all over her body finally went away. 。Mrs. Cui held Jiayin all the way to the melon field, she was also tired enough. 。When Li Laoer saw this, he immediately took his niece. 。This girl is like a meat bun, getting rounder and rounder. No one can hold her anymore. 。Liu Zhiheng saw his sister-in-law coming over and beamed with joy. 。"Jinerou, father said he wants to pick some first and offer them to the palace!" “This is a great occasion!” Cui’s wife was also surprised. She was afraid the villagers wouldn't be willing to part with them, so she helped explain, “After offering them to the palace, our cantaloupes and honeydew melons here will become tributes. Everyone will scramble for them, and we definitely won't have to worry about selling them..." 。Li Laoer and the village head, as well as villagers from nearby, were all listening with great excitement. 。Actually, whether or not they sell silver doesn't matter anymore. The emperor being proud to eat the cucumbers they grew is the most important thing. 。The village head also said, “Before, because that county magistrate’s son came to seize our land, Mr. Wen even took us to file a complaint with the imperial court. I even met the emperor and received imperial rice as a reward.” 。Now that we've firmly established ourselves, with a bountiful harvest of winter melons, it's only right to send some for the Emperor to try. 。This reminds Liu Zhiheng, “We should inform Wen Shidi. It's best for him and my father to go to the palace with you.” 。As he spoke, he called out to his constant companion, who hastened back to the city. 。It was already dusk, and if they didn't hurry, the city gates would be closed. 。Soon, everyone had reported an approximate number. Liu Zhiheng got a sense of the figures in his mind and then returned to Li's house with everyone. 。Tao Hongying and a woman helped carry back two large lunch boxes. Along with the rice steamed by Old Li, a large plate of blanched vegetables, and a large bowl of fried eggs in sauce, dinner was ready on the table. 。The village head and Mr. Zhao, along with Dr. Zhang, accompanied the guests. After a good meal and drinks, they finally got down to business. 。Liu Zhiheng got straight to the point. “After these winter melons and muskmelons are sent to the palace, the Emperor will distribute them as rewards to important officials and nobles. Once their names become known, we can then start selling them.” 。I'm not going to sell by the pound, this kind of good stuff can't be like ordinary fruit. 。This time, let's talk about selling!

Talking about selling Everyone understood, that's why they went to the field just now to count... 。>e to join in the fun, filled the main hall.Xi Wang was entertaining Zhi Min, Xiu Jie, Liu Yang, Gu Li, and Guo Wen Hao.Of course, Guli came with Mr. Chiang.And Guo Wenhao has been serving ink and brus...
