Wen Jianzhou became more and more frightened the more he thought about it, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Well, aren't we going to talk about the serious matter? It's getting late now, so go in quickly. You don't feel cold when you stand here."
After speaking, Wen Jianzhou called and ran away quickly.
Jiang Hexi narrowed his eyes and looked at his almost fleeing figure. He couldn't help but think of what was wrong with Narentoya just now, and a trace of deep thought flashed in his eyes.
"Xi'er, don't worry about him. Let's go in first. What are the maids below doing? They don't even have a soup baby in their hands. Now they are cold. What should I do if I get infected with wind and cold?"
Huo Jingchen glanced at the maid beside him with an expressionless face, and only scared Xiyue and others to death, and hurriedly apologized.
Jiang Hexi said angrily: "Don't scare my maid, I forgot it myself. What's the matter with them? I'll leave, don't let Jinghe wait for a long time."
As he said that, Jiang Hexi grabbed Huo Jingchen with a face and walked into the Duke Huo Mansion without any explanation.
As soon as the two walked into Mrs. Huo Guogong's house, they saw Wen Jianzhou laughing and making Mrs. Huo happy.
Jiang Hexi smiled at Wen Jianzhou meaningfully, only to make him feel sad.
"Mom, what are you talking about? I'm so happy."
Mrs. Huo said softly: "Jinghe is talking about some interesting things to me. Speaking of which, Jinghe's mouth is really amazing. He can tell a flower of a small matter. He will not be an official in Honglu Temple.
What a pity."
"My daughter-in-law also feels so, but Jinghe has no intention of career, so it's hard to force it." Jiang Hexi took a sip of tea and looked at Wen Jianzhou who was scared with a smile, "Jinghe, do you think so?"
Looking at Jiang Hexi's gentle appearance, Wen Jianzhou's scalp became numb and nodded stiffly.
Seeing his cowardly appearance, Jiang Hexi became more and more confident in his thoughts. He must have had something happened between him and Narentoya, and he still kept it from her. OK, hum!
"Auntie, Wuyang and I have something to talk about, so let Xier chat with you, we'll leave first." Wen Jianzhousheng took Huo Jingchen away with him with a stern apology, without giving anyone else a chance to refuse.
Looking at the two people who disappeared in a blink of an eye, Mrs. Huo smiled helplessly and said to Jiang Hexi: "The fruits you sent just now are very fresh. Your father likes to eat winter dates the most. If he is
I would definitely be very happy to see such a beautiful winter date.”
Jiang Hexi smiled and said, "It's good that dad likes it. There are many more in the village. If dad likes it, just send someone to say it. I'll ask someone to pick it in the village."
"Xi'er is filial." Mrs. Huo's wife smiled deeper and she looked puzzled, "Those fruits are second. I'm curious about how those tender green vegetables came from? It's winter now, so I've brought so many watery little ones.
Green vegetables."
"My mother doesn't know that I specially planted the vegetables in the greenhouse. I built some airtight oil cloth to build the shed, or built a dirt tank in the house to grow vegetables, burn it with charcoal to make the greenhouse or
The house heated up and the vegetables were planted."
"My daughter-in-law thought that she would not eat any vegetables every winter, and she was tired of those big radishes every day, so she let the people under her command plant some vegetables, just to satisfy her cravings."
"You girl, you are so smart. How can anyone else think of this?" Mrs. Huo was amazed and became more and more satisfied with Jiang Hexi. She was not greedy for this desire. What's rare is that Jiang Hexi is willing to tell this matter all the time
She had no idea of hiding her own selfishness, which means she did not treat them as outsiders. How could she be unhappy?
Jiang Hexi felt guilty and was not the way she came up with. It was just that she had been greedy for several years in winter. In this grand weather, only in warmer places like Qingzhou can you eat vegetables in winter. When she was in Jingzhou before, she
It was all the winter that was survived by cabbage and radish, so she was so scared when she saw cabbage and radish, so she couldn't find a way to plant some vegetables.
Speaking of which, Jiang Erlang gave her inspiration and reminded her of the methods used to make vegetable greenhouses, which made people start building sheds to grow vegetables.
"My daughter-in-law also thought that the weather was too cold in winter. People had to wear thick clothes in such cold weather. Those tender vegetables would definitely freeze to death. She just wanted to plant them in a warmer place, just like in winter.
If you like to stay in a charcoal-burning house, the vegetables will definitely survive."
"This makes sense. Xi'er is indeed a wise man. However, if you use charcoal to heat up vegetables, it will cost a lot of money. Ordinary people do not have such conditions." Mrs. Huo couldn't help but feel a pity. She looked at Jiang Hexi's face.
Lu was puzzled and explained: "Your father is always worried that the soldiers lack fruits and vegetables in winter and are prone to illness. Every year, he sends people to pull a lot of cabbage and radish to the border. I just worry about it."
Hearing this, Jiang Hexi couldn't help but feel awe, pondered for a moment, and said, "Mom, there are actually ways to save costs. Didn't Wuyang and I find coal in Jingzhou before? The coal will take longer, if we can use coal to burn it.
I don’t think it will cost too much money.”
"Charcoal fire is expensive, but coal smoke is large, so everyone doesn't like it. It's better to use a hot greenhouse to burn it, so we don't have to worry about the cost too much."
Mrs. Huo Guogong's eyes lit up, "This method is good! But this is a method you finally figured out. We will not be able to take it. Then I will ask your father to move some money for you."
Jiang Hexi waved his hand quickly, "Mom, no need, it's all a family, why be so polite? I just came up with a way for the sake of my mouth. I didn't think about making a lot of money by relying on this. Now I can help.
It’s the honor of my daughter-in-law to come to my parents.”
Seeing that Duke Huo was still hesitant, Jiang Hexi pretended to be unhappy and said, "Mom, can you not treat me as your own person? Is it so clear that you are so clear?"
Mrs. Huo was so amused and crying. She didn't know that Jiang Hexi said this on purpose, but she agreed helplessly, but she thought to make up for her in the future.
Jiang Hexi was then happy.
In the quaint study, mist lingers from the exquisite stove, and the whole room vaguely exudes a faint fragrance, which looks even warmer under the warm yellow lights.
"Your study has been much warmer this year. It seems that the coal is really useful." Wen Jianzhou sat on the soft collapse and placed his hands, which were soaked in the cold wind when he came over, on the stove to keep warm.
Huo Jingchen poured him a cup of hot tea and said, "The amount of coal mining was not large before, and most of them were supplied to the front line. The mansion has been using silver charcoal. This year, the amount of coal mining is quite large, and His Majesty has rewarded a lot.
”
"I'm lucky to you. Most of the coals in the world are so smoky. You don't have any cigarettes, and you're not bad than silver charcoal." Wen Jianzhou took a sip of hot tea and picked up the
The milk cake started to eat.
After taking a bite, Wen Jianzhou felt the soft and sweetness explode in his mouth. It was so delicious that he wanted to swallow his tongue, and then picked up a small piece of milk cake and ate it.
"This pastry is pretty good. I haven't eaten it before, but it's fresh."
"This is something Xi'er made a few days ago. She said that eating these soft and fragrant snacks in winter is the most enjoyable. If you like it, I'll take more back later. I'll ask Xi'er to see if she can write it to you.
A prescription.”
"Okay, I'm not polite with you and your wife." Wen Jianzhou ate another snack, squinted his eyes halfway, and said, "Yes, your life is getting more and more comfortable now. Look,
Look at your current delicious food and warm house, and look at your cold house in the past, it’s really a world of difference, tsk tsk tsk tsk."
"It will naturally be different after getting married." Huo Jingchen's mouth curled slightly, he glanced at Wen Jianzhou with some smugness, slowly picked up a piece of milk cake and took a bite.
Seeing his arrogant look, Wen Jianzhou curled his lips, too lazy to pay attention to him, so he simply took all the plates of snacks and started eating them on his own.
Huo Jingchen was compassionate and did not care about him. Wen Jianzhou was a lonely man, so he was not easy to bully him, so as not to make his life even more miserable.
Forget it, he is also a family and a career, so he won’t bother with him.
"Jinghe, Xier was hit by a masked man's carriage today. She also smelled the same oolong tea fragrance from the masked man and Xin Wang. What do you think of this?"
Hearing this, Wen Jianzhou frowned, put down the plate of snacks in his arms, swallowed the food in his mouth, and softened his throat, "You mean, King Xin has a different relationship with this masked man."
"King Xin has been doing a lot of things recently, and it has reached a point where King Xiang is incompatible. I suspect he is conspiring with something."
"The previous A Furong incident was related to the merchants of the Western Regions. According to the information sent back, the merchants of the Western Regions did sell A Furong to Dasheng privately. Do you still remember the masked man you met before? I suspect they are the same
In person, and King Xin just received the support of a businessman, maybe it was the man in mask."
Wen Jianzhou couldn't help but straighten his body and said solemnly: "What you said is reasonable. The masked man deliberately approached us before, perhaps just to seek information. Now King Xin and King Xiang are fighting to the death. However, this masked man has done business in the Western Regions. It's true.
It's suspicious."
"The A Furong case may really have something to do with him, but why is he a businessman involved in the royal affairs? If he is just for glory and wealth, then the risk is too great." Wen Jianzhou really couldn't figure it out.
Holding my chin and pondered for a long time.
Huo Jingchen spoke, "No matter what he intends, he is so suspicious now that we must investigate."
