Everyone was tired from traveling and had no other plans for the afternoon.

Some of the older brothers had errands to do, and some were busy with other things, but they were nowhere to be seen.

The younger ones were all idle and gathered together with Brother Ninth.

The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were bored.

This is a rare trip, so I wanted to take a look around.

Brother Jiu saw that everyone was in good spirits, so he called everyone out of the palace.

Instead of riding a horse, he directly asked someone to drive the carriages of the fifteenth brother and the sixteenth brother. The brothers sat separately, and the eunuchs also sat crowded outside the carriage.

Other guards followed on horseback.

Going all the way west, almost six miles away, we arrived at Brother Jiu's private land.

The construction of the villa has not started yet, but there are currently two hot springs at the foot of the mountain and a two-foot greenhouse, one of which is three times the size of the Prince's Mansion.

The two in front and back together are as big as six greenhouses in the Prince's Mansion.

It looks ordinary, but when you look at the plain tiles, you can tell that it still cost a lot of money.

But there are hot springs flowing through it, which should save a lot of charcoal in winter.

Because of the open tiles, the greenhouse is very stuffy now.

When everyone came back from the Great Wall, they were all wearing quilted clothes, some of which were hard to put on.

There were eunuchs following him around. Seeing this, they hurriedly stepped forward to serve him and helped him take off his outer vest, so as not to sweat and catch a cold when he went out.

The fourteenth brother has been eating mutton for more than a month. Although the kitchen also brings vegetables, they can't compare with this bright one.

He held a piece of cabbage and saw that it was clean and dust-free. He chewed it directly in his mouth and said, "It's sweet!"

Brother Thirteen has seen a lot in the past two years, so the corner of his mouth twitched when he saw this.

He knew that the growth of this land cannot be achieved without fertilizer.

There are many unspeakable things about this fertilizer.

It's just that I didn't stop him, so it's hard to say anything.

Seeing Brother Sixteen sticking out his little buttocks and squatting on the edge of the cabbage field, imitating the same pattern, Brother Thirteen hurriedly took his little hand and said: "Brother Ninth has good things here, let's show our respect first."

Amma, why don’t you eat first.”

Brother Sixteen immediately put his hand behind his back and said, "Well, I won't take it off."

The fourteenth elder brother smiled and said: "I am also filial. Let me try it first and then we can be filial."

The ninth elder brother saw the true intention of the thirteenth elder brother and said nothing.

But Brother Sixteen looked at the cabbage patch helplessly, which was quite pitiful.

Children are not necessarily greedy, but more playful.

He said: "Then pick the vegetables yourself and honor Khan Amma and your brothers..."

That's what he said, but he was also afraid that everyone would waste things, so he said: "Just give back the baby cabbage, you can pick it next to each other, but pick the radish and baby spinach separately."

The water radish is about the thickness of a thumb right now. If you don't pick it, it will grow to be as thick as a child's arm in ten or eight days.

The same goes for baby spinach. At three inches long, it can only be regarded as a spinach seedling. It will take more than twenty days to grow into a big spinach.

I heard that when I was asked to pick vegetables, not to mention the sixteenth elder brother, even the fifteenth elder brother had joy on his face.

The two little brothers did not take action immediately, but looked at the tenth elder brother.

Apart from the ninth prince, who is the master, the tenth prince is the oldest.

Brother Ten was very cooperative. When he arrived, he tucked up his clothes, squatted down, and demonstrated, saying, "Just pull it out."

The 15th and 16th elder brothers just squatted next to each other and pulled out cabbages together.

The Thirteenth Brother and the Fourteenth Brother, who were slightly older, had never experienced this, so they followed him down to the ground out of curiosity.

When the cabbages were picked next to each other, they lost interest and went to pull out the radishes.

Then, like a beauty pageant, the two of them picked up the obviously fat radish tassels.

As a result, the bottom water radish is slightly thicker than the same period.

There is a little competition between the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother.

See who can pull out the bigger radish.

Brother Jiu was standing by, very speechless, and went to another place.

The greenhouse is larger this year, so there are more varieties to grow.

There are also banana persimmons specially requested by Shu Shu and planted in several ridges.

The seedlings are now almost a foot tall and look like flowers and leaves.

There are also chili peppers. I collected the seeds of several types of chili peppers on the market, including the very spicy Chaotian pepper and the fist-sized, non-spicy bell pepper.

Brother Jiu was satisfied, and then looked at Ming Wa with a bit of regret.

It would be great if I could find a cheaper alternative.

Otherwise, he could afford to build it at such a cost, but it would be too unsightly.

Before, I thought about flexing my muscles with the hot springs at my back, and then opening two shops in the inner city to sell Dongzi vegetables in winter.

At the moment, it seems that there is no solution.

These two greenhouses, that is, the supply of the palace and myself, are somewhat rich, but not very much, and they are not worthy of a special sale.

By the time he turned around, several of the little ones had picked several handfuls of vegetables.

Seeing the speed, Brother Jiu called to several eunuchs and said: "You find another place to pick up radish and spinach, and give each person two handfuls."

Everyone heard the greeting and went over to plant the seedlings.

A few kids lost interest after the initial novelty.

Seeing that the emperor's amount was enough, Brother Jiu said: "Okay, that's it. The filial piety from Khan Amma is enough, no more waste."

The fourteenth elder brother immediately said: "Ninth brother, where is our share?"

The sixteenth elder brother was picking at the mud on his hands and looking at the ninth elder brother eagerly.

Brother Jiu pointed at the eunuchs working and said, "Are you stingy? Everyone has a share!"

Brother Fourteen immediately swallowed his saliva and said, "I want to drink egg and spinach soup. It's smooth and delicious!"

Brother Sixteen listened with some yearning, nodded and said: "I like to drink too, but I haven't drank for several months."

There are no eggs in the little brother's portion, but when we were in Changchun Garden a few months ago, the ninth brother scattered eggs for everyone several times, and everyone had a share.

Brother 16, who lives in the fourth house by the West Garden Pool, is no exception, so he drank egg and spinach soup.

When he returned to the palace in July and came out with him, there would be no more of these.

Brother Jiu said: "Then ask the chef to add vegetables in the dining room in the evening, spinach and egg soup, stir-fried cabbage, and radish with dipping sauce."

Everyone was buzzing after hearing this and looking forward to dinner.

After wiping away the sweat and everyone came out of the greenhouse, Brother Fourteen sighed with emotion: "I never thought that eating mutton would hurt me, but I would still be looking forward to the day when I can eat cabbage and tofu."

There is no mutton in their menu. I thought it was very delicious just two days after I first started eating it. But after eating it for a month and a half, I felt a little bit ecstatic.

“I don’t even want to eat mutton this year…”

Brother Fourteen came to a conclusion.

After hearing this, Brother Sixteen took out his purse and poured out four "Karaha".

Compared with the ordinary "Galaha", it is more than twice as small, only the size of a thumb cap, and looks exquisite and cute.

"Brother Ninth, Brother Ninth, I reserved this specially for my eldest niece to play with..."

Brother Sixteen said like a young adult: "This is what little girls play. Let Sister-in-law Jiu sew a pocket and you can play."

Brother Jiu took it and looked at it curiously: "This is good. It looks smaller than a deer Galaha. Is this a lamb?"

Brother Sixteen nodded and said: "Yes, very small lambs, the kind that are steamed and eaten."

Brother Jiu saw his eyes glued to Galaha and saw that he was his beloved, so he said: "If it is your beloved, keep it. Ni Guzhu is still young, so you can give her a farewell play."

"

Brother Sixteen shook his head and said: "I won't stay. This is a little girl's play. I am a little boy. I want to play with whips and ice balls..."

Seeing that he persisted, Brother Jiu accepted it and said, "Then I will take it back and ask your Sister-in-law Jiu to prepare a return gift for you on behalf of your niece."

Brother Sixteen still shook his head and said, "No need to return the favor, it's not like that. We'll talk about it later."

Otherwise, it would always feel weird if I gave something as a gift and immediately returned the gift.

Before the few people left the greenhouse, the sound of horse hooves was heard not far away.

It was a few older ones who came to look for someone when they saw that the younger ones didn't go back.
