"The third prince is joking, the Beidi people are no different from us Dasheng people, except that their eyebrows are deeper, they mostly have high noses and deep eyebrows, and their bodies are taller and stronger." Huo Jingchen also deliberately replied in a low voice.
"Then are all the people in Beidi really bad people? I heard from Xiao Nanzi that the people in Beidi are all evil people." Xiao Han frowned and thought for a while, then asked in a low voice.
"Of course not. The Beidi people are just like us Dasheng people. They are also good and bad. It's just because the Beidi people have plundered our Dasheng all the year round that the people say that the Beidi people are all evil people. Although I hate the Beidi people, I also
It is undeniable that there is no shortage of good people among Beidi people." Huo Jingchen smiled and glanced at Xiao Han, who was particularly curious, and explained patiently.
When Xiao Han heard this, he smiled sheepishly, his eyebrows suddenly curved, and two deep dimples appeared.
If Jiang Hexi were here, he would probably be extremely surprised. The male protagonist in the original book, who was cold and indifferent in the future, turned out to be this cute and naughty when he was a child. It is really eye-opening and surprising.
"What are you talking about? I want to listen too!" Xiao Ning couldn't help but asked curiously when he saw the two men sneaking closer.
"It's nothing, princess. I and the third prince were just discussing the customs and customs of Jingzhou." Huo Jingchen's expression was natural and he smiled calmly.
Xiao Han nodded hurriedly, looking like he could no longer agree.
Although Xiao Ning still felt that something was wrong, he was successfully attracted and asked curiously: "General Huo, are there many delicious and fun places in Jingzhou? Otherwise, why would you have been there for more than two years? Imperial Grandma.
I have been talking about you for two years, saying that you were dazzled by Jingzhou and refused to come back!"
Huo Jingchen couldn't help but think of the tofu that Jiang Hexi gave to him before, and felt that it was the most delicious delicacy he had ever eaten. He couldn't help but smile: "Yes! Jianjingzhou does have many unique food and beauty. The white jade tofu that the princess tasted before is
One of them."
"Yes! That white jade tofu is so delicious! Especially the tofu pudding, I like it the most! It's fragrant, sweet, tender, and melts in your mouth!" Xiao Ning's eyes widened when he thought of the delicious tofu.
Sparkling and very excited.
"I also like the tofu pudding the most. I heard that it was made by a sister. Is it true? She is so awesome!" Xiao Han on the side agreed with a smile.
Huo Jingchen thought of that unique woman and couldn't help softening his eyebrows and said warmly: "It was indeed done by a girl. The girl also gave the recipe to me and asked me to give it to your majesty. Your majesty also specially rewarded the girl
, but the capital is not far from Jingzhou, so it is estimated that the reward has not yet reached the girl."
"Does General Huo know that girl?" Xiao Ning noticed Huo Jingchen's different smile, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile.
"Yes, that Miss Jiang is the girl who saved me after I fell off the cliff." Huo Jingchen said openly.
Hearing this, Emperor Jian'an immediately turned around and suddenly realized: "It turns out that they are the same person. I really didn't expect it. In this way, my reward will be a bit light."
"Yes, Your Majesty, the matter is urgent. I haven't had time to explain it to you in detail, but that girl is not a person who is greedy for fame and fortune. I will repay her." Huo Jingchen said slowly.
Xiao Ning became more and more curious and couldn't help but shake Huo Jingchen's arm and asked: "This Miss Jiang is really powerful. General Huo, can you tell me about her again?"
"Han'er wants to hear it too." Xiao Han saw his royal sister's movements and imitated her to shake Huo Jingchen's other arm and said coquettishly.
When Emperor Jian'an saw how harmonious the atmosphere between the three of them was, he laughed so hard that the fine lines at the corners of his eyes showed.
Huo Jingchen thought of something, a sly smile flashed in his eyes, and he said helplessly: "Okay, I will tell you everything I know, and I will tell you everything. Your Highnesses, please stop shaking my arms, I'm almost fainting."
When the two of them heard this, they immediately put down Huo Jingchen's arms and smiled coquettishly.
The man's deep voice sounded from the pavilion in the middle of the lake, complementing the snowflakes falling all over the sky outside the pavilion. The snowflakes were like goose feathers, falling gently on the black roof, and drifted into the warm and cozy atmosphere.
Inside the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
As winter turns to spring, the ice and snow gradually melt, green shoots quietly poke their heads out from the dry branches, and low wild vegetables gradually cover the entire farmland, cracking open the corners of the farmers' lips that have been pursed for a long time in winter.
"Sister, Manfu and the others picked a lot of wild vegetables yesterday, how about we go pick them too?" Jiang Heyun, who was half a head taller, hugged Jiang Hexi's arm and coquettishly said.
"Okay, we'll go there later." Jiang Hexi thought she had nothing to do, so she agreed.
Several people walked briskly towards the farmland of Ping An Village, holding small bamboo baskets.
As soon as I got closer, I saw that the originally empty farmland was now crowded with villagers of all sizes. Everyone was in high spirits, picking wild vegetables, hoeing, chatting and laughing happily, everything was beautiful.
Awesome.
"Sister Xi, Ayun, Axuan, Sister Liuying, come here quickly!" As soon as Li Manfu saw the familiar figure, he quickly put down his work, stood up, shook his arms and shouted loudly.
"Manfu! I'm here!" As soon as he saw his friends, Jiang Heyun immediately let go of Jiang Hexi's hand that was holding tightly because he was afraid of falling, and excitedly ran towards Li Manfu with his short legs twisting.
.
Even Jiang Hexuan, who had always been calm and composed, was extremely excited at this moment and hurriedly followed his brother's back towards the children.
"Forget it, ignore these two guys, let's go slowly!" Jiang Hexi shook her head helplessly and smiled at Liuying.
Liu Ying naturally had no objection and nodded with a smile.
"Xi'er, are you here to pick wild vegetables too?" Upon hearing the commotion, Aunt Li, who was busy hoeing the ground, raised her bowed body and asked with a smile.
"Yes, Aunt Li, are you hoeing the ground so early?" Jiang Hexi said softly.
Aunt Li waved her hand and shouted loudly: "It's late, it's spring, it's time to plant the fields!"
"Don't say that! I've been sitting at home all winter, and I'm so bored. Now holding the hoe in my hand, I feel at ease, otherwise I would always feel uneasy!" The energetic Uncle Li Le said.
Hehe said.
"That's not true. We have cultivated the land all our lives. It would be very strange if we stopped!" Hearing this, Zhang Meiying echoed loudly.
"By the way, Miss Jiang, will our knitting workshop open in the future?" Li Lanhua, who had been struggling for a long time, mustered up the courage to ask Jiang Hexi in a low voice.
Jiang Hexi was stunned for a while, smiled sweetly, and explained gently: "That's right, isn't spring here? The weather is getting hotter, so of course not so many people are buying these knitted clothes, so we have to stop work."
Seeing Li Lanhua's downcast expression, Jiang Hexi quickly added: "But I've been thinking about doing other work recently, and I'll still have to hire people to help."
"Really? Miss Jiang, can I go?" Li Lanhua's eyes lit up and she asked nervously.
"Of course you can." Jiang Hexi assured with a smile.
Li Lanhua immediately split her pursed lips, revealing her exquisite white teeth and slight dimples.
"Xi'er, what kind of work do you want to do again?" Zhang Meiying asked curiously.
Jiang Hexi's eyebrows arched, she winked mischievously, and said mysteriously: "Aunt Mei Ying will know then."
Zhang Meiying angrily tapped Jiang Hexi's nose in the air, looking angry and funny.
When several people returned home with their loads, Liu Yingfang couldn't help but asked out of curiosity: "Girl, what do you want to do for a living?"
Jiang Hexi hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth and said, "Liu Ying, let me ask you something."
"Girl, just ask, I promise to tell you everything I know," Liu Ying promised, patting her chest.
"Is there any prohibition on alcohol in Dasheng? It means that private sales of alcohol are not allowed." Jiang Hexi bit her lip and hesitated.
Liuying relaxed her slightly frowning eyebrows and said with a sweet smile, "Of course not. Where did you hear these words, girl?"
"I just thought that wine was extremely profitable, and I thought the court would have some control over it." Jiang Hexi finally put down the big stone hanging in her heart and said with a smile.
Liuying waved her hand and said carelessly: "No, the wine brewed by Dasheng's private winery is not high in alcohol content, and the store is small, so it cannot be a threat. Moreover, most of these winemaking recipes are
Being caught by the nobles and wealthy families, how can ordinary people have any way to make wine."
"It's not easy for the imperial court to take care of all the nobles and wealthy families. It can only turn a blind eye and close one eye. There is nothing we can do about it."
"Besides, most of our Da Sheng wines are not strong in flavor, so Da Sheng buys wine from the Beidi people all year round. Although the Beidi people are cruel and brutal, it is undeniable that their wine is really enjoyable to drink!"
"But in the past two years, the war between Dasheng and Beidi has continued, and the business of this wine has also been affected. Fortunately, the general defeated Beidi last year, and we finally have the opportunity to drink strong wine again!"
Hearing this, Jiang Hexi opened her eyes silently. Others didn't know how to make wine, but she could! Back then, her parents had been workers in the winery for many years, and her grandparents loved drinking, but she had been able to make wine since she was a child.
Many different kinds of wine!
If she started this business, wouldn't all the customers in Beidi be hers?
But thinking of something, Jiang Hexi hesitated and hesitated for a long time: "Liu Ying, do you know when General Huo will return to Jingzhou?"
Liu Ying's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "Girl, you are asking me! The general returned to Jingzhou a few days ago. You never asked me, and I didn't dare to disturb you." At the end of the sentence, Liu Ying said
He pouted aggrievedly.
Jiang Hexi smiled awkwardly and said while doing Tai Chi: "Aren't you busy with the last batch of goods in the knitting workshop recently?"
"Girl, what are you doing with the general?" Liuying asked curiously.
