Ning Pengpeng didn't know that Emperor Jin He was conflicted about whether to eat this bowl of spicy vermicelli.
She was so happy that Emperor Jin He asked her to find Xie Qiping.
Seeing the faint smile on Ning Pengpeng's face, Eunuch Li thought it was because the emperor had given Ning a reward, and nodded with satisfaction.
In Eunuch Li's view, Ning is just an old woman from the countryside. To be rewarded by His Majesty is to have smoke rising from her ancestral grave.
However, he had stayed in the palace for so long, so it was naturally impossible for him to express what was on his mind.
After taking the person out very politely, he called his disciples to come and took Ning Pengpeng to receive the reward, and then went to Huangzhuang.
After all, Mr. Xie is staying in the Imperial Manor now!
At this moment, Xie Qiping felt that his thick hair was about to be pulled out by himself.
I had no choice but to take the remaining half basket of sweet potatoes with me to Huangzhuang.
The old farmer in Huangzhuang, as well as the officials from the Ministry of Household who were in charge of Zhuangzi's fields, all talked about Baimozi.
But those people heard Xie Qiping say that after planting these sweet potato vines, and then cutting the vines and planting them in the same field as rice transplanting, they could produce over a thousand kilograms per mu.
He gritted his teeth. Anyway, although the people in the imperial village did not do it openly, they secretly hindered him so that he could not plant the half basket of sweet potatoes in the ground.
When Ning Pengpeng came, they thought she was some kind of expert!
Farm tools can easily be broken when plowing the ground.
Then, I got time to walk around the imperial village.
But, as long as we grow these sweet potatoes, won’t we be done?
As long as he can make great achievements, I believe His Majesty will look upon him differently.
After all, when Mrs. Ning took him to see the Ning family's farm, those sweet potatoes were grown in fertile fields.
Ning Pengpeng took a closer look at the stone slope, but there were many stones mixed in the soil.
When the time comes, if Xie Qiping and Ning Pengpeng fail to live up to their boasts in front of His Majesty, Your Majesty will naturally punish them.
"Thank you, Sir, how can it be possible that there is no land available!
Therefore, the only thing Xie Qiping can rely on is his loyalty to His Majesty.
Now, it's a big joke.
You don’t know yet, but one of the biggest advantages of this sweet potato is that it doesn’t have to be picky at all.
Xie Qiping couldn't believe it.
If Xie Qiping hadn't thought that after the sweet potatoes were planted, they would still need to be taken care of by people like them, and he would definitely break out with them and go to His Majesty to ask for an explanation.
He also thoughtfully sent a few servants to follow him and Ning Pengpeng to the rocky slope with farm tools.
This is simply ridiculous.
To listen to the words of a woman with long hair and short knowledge is simply the biggest joke of the year.
In the eyes of aristocratic families and nobles, Xie Qiping was nothing.
After hearing Mrs. Ning's words, Xie Qiping immediately calmed down.
After all, this Imperial Manor is so big, they don't have that much energy to care about what Xie Qiping and Ning Pengpeng do.
"Just because of this, you want to go to the emperor?"
Today, there is simply no land available.”
Isn't it just an excuse to say that the fertile fields have been planted with things? We can't destroy the crops that have been planted for the sake of this unknown crop!
Then if you want that rocky slope, believe these people, you won’t have anything to say, right?
Sure enough, when Xie Qiping asked for the stone slope, the officials of Huangzhuang agreed without saying a word.
"They dare to disobey His Majesty's orders, shouldn't they?"
Just when Xie Qiping was about to go to the Holy Spirit to complain, Mrs. Ning was sent over.
When the officials in Zhuangzi heard the news, they all laughed secretly, saying that Mr.
Therefore, he refused at all and asked Xie Qiping to clear away the crops in the original fields in Huangzhuang and plant this sweet potato.
That's why the people from Huangzhuang left this slope empty.
Otherwise, nothing was done.
"On that piece of rocky land, can we plant?"
Didn’t they use the excuse that there was no land to plant? They wouldn’t even let us plant on that stone slope, right?”
Afterwards, the officials of Huangzhuang waved their hands to tell them to leave Xie Qiping and Ning Pengpeng alone.
Before arriving at the Imperial Mansion just now, Ning Pengpeng stuffed a pink purse into the hand of the little eunuch who brought her here.
Regarding Xie Qiping's hesitation, Ning Pengpeng replied decisively.
Hearing Mr. Xie gritting his teeth and telling him about the lack of cooperation from everyone in Huangzhuang, Ning Pengpeng couldn't help but press his forehead and looked at him speechlessly.
Seeing that Mrs. Ning was so confident, Xie Qiping's original hesitation was immediately suppressed.
Although all the fertile fields in the imperial manor have been planted, the stone slope behind is empty.
On the first day, their group managed to dig out three long ridges of flat land on the top of the slope, with a row of excavated stones piled next to them.
"Then what do you think we should do?
The fields in this imperial manor are all planted with things.
Yes, I have been holding back from going to see His Majesty before. Isn't it because of this reason?
"Can plant."
Xie Qiping gritted his teeth and said.
To them, this is nonsense.
After all, Xie Qiping has been away from the capital for many years. Although he is absolutely right in Mingzhou Prefecture, not many people in the capital take him seriously.
Then they dug down one by one. Although there were people, the speed was naturally much slower because there were rocks and slopes in the ground.
You say, isn’t this not worth the gain?”
Therefore, Ning Pengpeng directly ordered the servants to dig a layer of flat land about two feet wide from the top of the stone slope, and picked up the stones in the mud and piled them aside.
Moreover, if you have the slightest problem, go to your Majesty to complain. Then, these people will naturally be beaten to the end by your Majesty, but you will also leave an impression in His Majesty's mind that you can't handle such a trivial matter and are not important.
But the more tolerant he was, the less the village heads and officials in the imperial village took him seriously.
Ning Pengpeng breathed a sigh of relief for the servants assigned to do the work by Huangzhuang. Fortunately, she and Mr. Xie did not have to dig the ground to do the work themselves.
Xie Qiping was also confused about the work Ning Pengpeng asked his subordinates to do, but he still couldn't bear to ask.
"Thank you sir, it's not that you shouldn't.
After doing this for three days, Xie Qiping finally couldn't bear it any longer and asked Mrs. Ning what on earth he was doing.
"Of course it's the land for planting sweet potatoes. Mr. Xie, although the land hasn't been dug completely yet, when you look up today, do you think it's any different from before?"
Because there were too many rocks in the mud, the progress was slow.
No matter how slow it is, there is still progress, and almost one-third of the slope area has been dug.
It was originally a desolate stone slope, but now when you look down from the top of the hillside, you can see that the upper third of the place is one step after another, like steps, and it looks very neat.
I will try to code another chapter, and I will ask for monthly votes as usual~ah!
