Chapter 935 Rare is precious
It is said to be a fresh thing, but the items themselves are not rare. They are just a few baskets of tender green onions, small spinach, rapeseed, and some pea seedlings and wormwood.
But Lian Man'er was very happy. These things are naturally not rare in spring and summer, but they are rare things in winter.
When winter comes, Liaodong Prefecture can be said to be frozen thousands of miles away and snow falls thousands of miles away. The entire vegetable garden of Liaodong Prefecture is deserted. There is no fresh vegetables to eat at all. The ones that can be eaten can be considered vegetables. Apart from the cabbage stored in winter, there is only spinach cut from the cellar in autumn.
Even the first-class wealthy family still has a lot of food on the table, but there is still a shortage of vegetables.
Just like Lian Man'er's house, it is very thoughtful, especially in the autumn when it is stored some other vegetables. Vegetables such as radish and lotus root are fine, and they can be stored for a long time. However, even if these leafy vegetables are stored in the most exquisite cellar, the freshness date will not be too long. As for the dried vegetables dried in autumn, how can they be more popular than these tender leafy vegetables in this season?
These fresh leafy vegetables were just delivered to the village outside Lianman'er's house.
The little girl took these fresh vegetables to see for Lian Man'er. Through the curtain, the shop where the vegetables were sent were standing outside with his hands hanging down, waiting for instructions.
Very good. Lian Man'er saw a few vegetables, smiled and nodded, and then told the little girls to take them to the backyard and show them to the wife.
When Lian Man'er said this, she lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then swallowed back what she wanted to say later. She only ordered someone to send the things to Zhang to see.
The little girls agreed and went to the backyard.
Only these Lian Man'er asked the waiter outside and said.
If you say that, the only thing you can eat now is this. The eggplant and cucumbers that have been planted have been set up now. After a few days, you will be able to eat small cucumber eggplant. Also, after the girl's instructions, the soil of the mushrooms that were made from the mountains was also served. Even if it was too small and not much, I didn't have the nerve to bring them into the city this time. When the young ones go back, I will definitely continue to take care of them and ensure that in some days, the master, lady and the man can eat more fresh vegetables. The farmhouse stood in the outer room and said with a smile.
Lian Man'er listened and was about to speak when he saw the little girl who had just left was back.
When I went back to the girl, my wife had seen the things and agreed. She said that half of them were sent to the Duke's Mansion. The other half picked out some and sent them to the Qin family to try them. The rest were sent to the kitchen. The little girl reported to Lian Man'er.
I got it, just do it. Lian Man'er nodded and said after hearing this.
The little girl was going out after she gave her a gift, so she could pass the message and ask the manager to arrange to deliver things.
Wait, Lian Man'er saw a pot of daffodils on the coffee table at a glance. He called the little girl and asked him to go to the garden. He picked up the best flowers and took six pots to the Duke's Mansion. He sent four pots to the Lord Qin's Mansion, and said that I gave them to Mrs. Qin and Miss Qin to watch and play.
The little girl quickly agreed to go out.
It’s hard for you. I know that these things are hard to handle and have to worry about. When the year comes, I will reward you with great merit and I will never forget your contribution. Only then did Lian Man'er say to the shopkeeper.
This is a small part of the responsibility. The village was happy and said to himself. After a while, he said to the house, "Look, girl, is it a greenhouse to add a small village to the small village?"
Don’t worry, let’s just do it for now. Lian Man’er thought about it and said, after two days, the master, grandpa, and second master, we have free time, go to the village to check it out, and then settle down.
Yes. The village head hurriedly agreed, and adding one or two more greenhouses to the village will not only add more contributions to him. With more profits, he will naturally benefit more from the people who are the village head.
The day after tomorrow, you will send two more baskets of fresh lotus roots and two baskets of fresh fish. Lian Man'er ordered again, thinking that there is nothing else to do, let the farm retreat. Go down and go ahead to see if the master and the uncle have any other instructions.
The village head hurriedly agreed, and saluted the house outside again, and then slowly retreated.
Another incident was made by the wife in charge, and Lian Man'er dealt with it one by one. Seeing that Lian Man'er had handled the housework, the girl Jixiang took her cloak over. Lian Man'er put it on, and still holding the hand stove in her hand, got up and came out of the downward hall.
There was no wind outside, the sun was hanging high, it was a sunny day, and the sun shining on her body was a little warm. Lian Man'er was in a good mood and thought that it was nothing, so she didn't go to the backyard.
Let's go to the garden to stroll. Lian Man'er spoke, and then brought a group of girls to the West Garden with good luck and freedom.
Because it had just snowed, although the road was cleaned, most of the garden was still snow-white and covered with silver. At first glance, the view was extremely wide. Lian Man'er and his people walked along the road in the garden to the northwest corner, and finally stopped in front of a small courtyard beside the wall.
The girl wanted to come and see the flowers raised in the warm room. She said auspiciously.
Well, Lian Man'er nodded.
This yard is where the West Garden specializes in cultivating flowers and trees. After a while, the flower maker Zhang Cai and Zhang Cai’s wife inside had already heard the movement and came out.
The flower craftsman Zhang Cai is now in his early fifties and is a ancestral flower craftsman. He has been with his parents who have worked as flower craftsmen since childhood in this garden. A year ago, Lian Man'er bought the Xiyuan. Because Zhang Cai and his wife had some skills in cultivating flowers and trees, they kept their family.
Now, the couple, with three children, are in this yard, specializing in cultivating the flowers in the four seasons in the house, and also in charge of caring for the flowers and trees in the garden.
The so-called "straighting is like a mountain" is the skill of flower craftsmanship. It is not necessary to say that it cultivates flowers and trees in spring and summer. Zhang Cai's ability is to use warm houses and pits to cultivate flowers in all seasons. The so-called warm house has the same principle as the warm bed for cultivating sweet potato seedlings in the countryside, and the principle of warm pits is generally similar to that of vegetable cellars.
Of course, warm houses and warm pits specially used to cultivate flowers also have some unique characteristics.
Huaerjian and his wife took Lian Man'er in, and then they attracted Lian Man'er to see the warm house and warm pit that were cultivating flowers.
The girl sent someone to get flowers and picked four pots of good daffodils, four pots of good chrysanthemums, and two pots of freshly bloomed pink sour roses at the door of the warm house. Zhang Cai’s wife reported to Lian Man'er.
Lian Man'er nodded and said she got it.
You have taken care of the pots of kumquats that the uncle brought back carefully. During the Chinese New Year, in addition to the ones placed at home, they also have to give them the best. Lian Man'er saw that the pots of kumquats in the Nuan House had some of them had small green fruits, so she said to Zhang Cai and his wife.
Zhang Cai and his wife hurriedly nodded in agreement.
As I was talking, I heard footsteps and speeches from far to near.
It was the second master who came, and the ninth master. The little girl came to Lian Man'er to report and also came to see the flowers.
It turned out to be Xiaoqi and Shen Qian. Lian Man'er thought about it, but in the end she did not avoid it. Although her marriage with Shen Liu was verbally agreed, she met Shen Qian since childhood, and the two families were very close. Originally, she said that there was no need to be too restrictive.
After a while, Xiaoqi and Shen Qian walked in.
When the two saw Lian Man'er, they came over to greet him with a smile, and Lian Man'er was busy returning the greeting.
Xiaoqi was wearing a robe with crow-green brocade and beads, and a cloak with a vermilion feathered veil, while Chen Qian was wearing a goose-yellow brocade and purple lamb robe with a cloak with a veil that was raining through the sky.
When Lian Man'er saw the two of them dressed, she knew that they were coming from outside and came directly to the garden.
It was only when you were over, Lian Man'er narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "When did Mr. Chu be so easy to talk to you, you are truant of school, I'm just getting caught.
Sister, we dare not skip school. Xiaoqi quickly laughed. It was Mr. Chu who had a friend who came to visit him and made an appointment to go out for a drink. We had a half-day vacation.
Xiaoqi is a very good child, but he is also a very smart child, and sometimes he is naughty.
Lian Man'er couldn't believe Xiao Qi and looked at Chen Qian.
Yes, it was the holiday that the gentleman gave us. Sister Manman. Chen Qian was slightly swaying and immediately said that when he finally called Sister Lian Man'er, it was a bit less smooth.
Shen Liu proposed to the Lian family, and the Lian family agreed. The people outside may not know about this, but the people from the Chen Lian family had known about it for a long time.
Chen Qian even knew earlier than others. Shen Liu wanted to marry Lian Man'er, but he didn't discuss it with others, but when he was writing a letter to the master, he called him in front of him.
At that time, Chen Qian felt a little aggrieved when he wiped his nose. However, he had been mentally prepared for this matter. His sixth brother had not hidden his movements in the past two years. And he didn't know what happened, and he could hardly see Lian Lian'er's face.
He was all the eldest wife who was in charge of him. The eldest wife knew about him going to Jinyang County during the Yuan Dynasty. Although she didn't say anything at that time, she looked at him very tightly. After that, even if she could look at Lian Man'er when everyone gathered, she didn't even have the chance to say a word alone.
Of course, it seemed that when the eldest lady was too busy and had no extra energy to restrain him, somehow he still couldn't see Lian Man'er. Now, the eldest lady finally went to the office with the eldest master, but Lian Man'er was about to become his sixth brother's wife.
If it were someone else, he would definitely not be convinced. But Brother Six could only wipe his nose, and he secretly complained in his heart that the eldest lady was dragging him down.
Lian Man'er is younger than him. Although he will call Lian Man'er's sister-in-law in the future, now he doesn't want to call Lian Man'er sister. But the sixth brother called him over and mentioned this matter in particular. At the same time, he told him that the eldest master and the eldest wife would come back and take him to take him to the office.
There will be a second update later, so please feel free to be pink. To be continued...
