Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 133 A closer look
When I got near Zhuangzi's door, I saw the door open, and Xing Ruolan was watching from the door.After she saw the carriage, she ran back to the yard excitedly and called her father to come out.

After the carriage stopped and the driver put down the stool, Aunt Zhang hurriedly got out of the carriage first, and then turned around to help Jiang Zhixia out.

"The girl is here?" Xing Zhuangtou and Xing Ruolan both saluted respectfully.

"Well, here we come. You don't need so many etiquettes in front of me." Jiang Zhixia replied while opening the curtain.

After finishing speaking, she said to Aunt Zhang: "Aunt Zhang, you don't need to help me. You will watch and take out all the salutes later. Then, settle the money again."

After hearing this, Aunt Zhang really stopped helping her.After Jiang Zhixia got off the carriage, he hurriedly took down the package.

Xing Zhuangtou and Xing Ruolan saw each other and quickly took the package.Aunt Zhang smiled at them, and then settled the cost of hiring a carriage.

After waiting for the carriage to leave, Jiang Zhixia asked Xing Ruolan and the others to hold the salute and go to the backyard to do bed cleaning and other matters.

She slowly began to look carefully from the front yard.

It may be because of the reason for marrying Zhuangzi as a dowry, so the front yard is relatively simple.In addition to the well, the kitchen, and the stables, there are all kinds of rooms——in addition to the main room, there are also various wing rooms.

However, there is an additional corridor built in the yard.In this way, if it is raining, you will not get wet, and your feet will not be full of mud when you walk.

In the backyard of the second entrance, in addition to the main courtyard, there are several separate small courtyards.

The area of ​​the main courtyard is the largest, and the layout inside is similar to Jiang Zhixia's backyard in the capital, with large and small side rooms on both sides of the main courtyard.It's just that there is an extra well and a small kitchen with a large area.

Although there are many flowerpots full of flowers in the yard.However, it is estimated that the original owner has not been here for a long time, and the flowers and plants are all withered.

Seeing Jiang Zhixia staring at the withered flowers, Xing Ruolan, who came out of the main room to change the water, hastily stepped forward and explained: "These flowers were last year that Grandma Li said she didn't want to throw them away. It was a pity for the servant girl, so I will come here to water it from time to time. But," she said shyly, lowering her head, "the servant girl really doesn't know how to take care of the flowers and plants, so most of the flowers still withered."

Jiang Zhixia nodded knowingly.

Generally, large families have a special flower house, and they buy servants who understand flowers and plants to take care of them.

The flowers and plants placed in the Zhuangzi are probably not expensive varieties, so that's why Grandma Li said no.

"It's okay, go get busy. I'll go shopping first." Jiang Zhixia said kindly to Xing Ruolan.

Xing Ruolan bowed out and hurried to fetch water from the well.

Jiang Zhixia went through the corner gate leading to the back garden and went into the back garden.

The area of ​​this back garden is much larger than that of Jiang Zhixia's house in the capital.

Not to mention a lot of flowers planted inside.Because Grandma Li is from the south of the Yangtze River, she has put a lot of thought into her own village.

What rockery, small bridges, running water and so on.There is actually a big swing decorated with light gauze.

And because of the hot spring, although the flowers and plants looked a little messy because no one took care of them, they were extraordinarily lush.

Jiang Zhixia strolled around, turned around the rockery, her eyes lit up.

There was actually a small vineyard in front of me.On a large piece of land next to the wall, several wooden shelves were erected.Those vines are all over those shelves.

Bunches of turquoise grapes hang on the vines, which look very pleasant.

Jiang Zhixia looked over in surprise.She didn't know that there were still so many grapes in the village.I don't know if it was the first plant in Zhengzhuang or the first plant in Xingzhuang.However, it was a pleasant surprise.

Looking at these lush grapes, an idea came to her mind.

She reached out and picked a grape and put it in her mouth.

Suddenly, a sour taste filled her entire mouth.She couldn't help but shuddered.

That's right, it's late July, and the grapes are usually ripe around the mid-autumn day on August [-]th.Now, it's still half a month away. No wonder the fruit is still sour even though it's green.

This large area seems to be a barrier made of rockery.On the other side of the rockery is the back garden full of flowers, and on this side is the lively and fragrant vegetable garden.

Not only are there grapes, but also many vegetables are planted on the ground.

Jiang Zhixia glanced over—well, he didn't know each other.

After looking around the rockery, Jiang Zhixia went to the hot spring room to check carefully.

There are many flowers planted outside the hot spring room.After she saw it, she planned to shovel all the flowers and plants to grow peppers.

Although more distressed.But peppers are more important.

The temperature next to the spring is very suitable for growing peppers.Although, when the weather is colder, the growth cycle of peppers will be longer.

The hot peppers she bought at the Xifang Daji in early June are basically gone.The harvest was better than Jiang Zhixia imagined.

Jiang Zhixia sent part of the pepper harvest to Chu Tiankuo's restaurant, and part of the pepper was dried.Because she cherishes it herself, she eats very little.

However, after buying the peppers back then, Jiang Zhixia dried some of the peppers that were first harvested, took the seeds, and let Uncle He and the others try to plant them again.

She knew that peppers grow very quickly in summer.

After all, Uncle He and the others have been serving crops for many years, and the results of planting are not bad.The part that is planted now has already begun to bear fruit.

If the peppers in the courtyard are transplanted next to the hot spring in Zhuangzi, the ripening period should be shorter.

If we take some measures to keep warm, we may be able to harvest three seasons of peppers a year.

If the pepper harvest is up, part of it can be used in restaurants.If there are too many, you can open a shop to sell them.

You can sell fresh peppers, you can also sell dried peppers, you can also make some pepper sauce for sale, it’s okay. . . .

Uh, thinking too far.It's better to plant peppers on a large scale first.

Jiang Zhixia withdrew her thoughts of running away.

As for the fields, Jiang Zhixia had been farming in his rural hometown in his previous life, it was too long ago.So, I almost forgot about it.

Therefore, it is not intended to interfere too much with the operations of the farmer and the tenant.

What they planted before, they should continue to plant now.

Professional things, let professional people do it.

When the funds are sufficient in the later stage, two more houses will be built behind the original hot spring room, which will be used as greenhouses to grow vegetables.

Jiang Zhixia watched while making plans in his heart.After seeing the backyard, we went to the main courtyard.

　First of all, thank you for your rewards and subscriptions.

　　Thank you very much for your support.

　　Regarding pepper planting, part of it comes from long-term memory, and part of it is from online research.Not considered.

　　Thank you!
