Concubine Doctor Concubine: Prince Miao only spends money like soil

Chapter 10, Ten Mile Tea Garden

The ten-mile tea garden is the base built by Gu Houye with countless painstaking efforts, and it is a good place for him to live in the future.

Three years of cultivation and careful cultivation have finally seen results.Gu Houye looked at the rows of green tea trees in front of him, feeling extremely proud in his heart.There is also a smile on his face, and his deep eyes are shining brightly in the sun.

His tall and strong body has become more healthy and stalwart because of his hard work. He is now wearing cotton and linen clothes, his chest is half exposed, his healthy bronze complexion is exposed, his sleeves are rolled up, and his feet are black-soled leather boots.

The stubble on the chin is a bit thick, and the whole person looks bold and hearty, full of the mature and steady spirit of a middle-aged man.

"Master Hou, you have worked hard today, the sun is so bright, you should go to the tea shed to rest."

"Old Zhang, this year's spring tea is the first batch we picked. The price we negotiated before has not changed, right?"

"Don't worry, Lord Hou. This spring tea is our first batch of new tea this year. All the teahouses and restaurants in Kyoto are vying to buy the tea that Lord Hou personally planted and picked. Therefore, Lord Hou can rest assured. The price will not be lower."

Master Gu laughed happily when he heard it. Now, for him, managing tea gardens, planting tea trees, and picking tea leaves is the greatest joy in his life.

The seasons for tea picking are divided into: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Spring tea is picked from early March to early May;

Summer tea is from late May to late August; autumn tea is from late September to early October; winter tea is generally from early November to early December.In the world of tea, the quality of tea is closely related to the natural climate. The climate changes throughout the year, so the tea produced is naturally different, and the tea produced in each season is also different.

At the fence of the tea garden, Gu Wuxia lifted her skirt and held up a parasol, and the maid Qiaoyun followed behind, carrying a food box made of sandalwood.

"Master Hou, look, Missy is here." The old servant Lao Zhang saw Miss Gu holding a flower umbrella from a distance.

Master Gu frowned and looked over, but it wasn't his flawless girl who came.

"Hehe, Xia'er, why do you have time to see father today?" In the tea shed, Master Gu was sitting, Gu Wuxia was standing, and Qiao Yun placed the food in the food box on the table.

Gu Wuxiagong first used a brocade handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Lord Gu Hou's forehead, then respectfully put the pastry in front of his father, and said with a charming smile, "Daddy, this is the spring flower cake made by my daughter. You can try it. Tasty?"

Master Gu stretched out two fingers to pick up a piece of pink pastry on the plate.After scrutinizing it carefully, he saw Gu Wuxia's charming face.

He laughed and stuffed it into his mouth.

In an instant, the sweetness that melts in the mouth overflows the tongue.

"Well, it's fragrant and sweet, it melts in your mouth, what's it made of?"

Seeing his father happy, Gu Wuxia said with a little pride: "It's not a special pastry, it's just a little sheep tail oil added to it."

"What? Sheeptail oil! Hahaha, thank you for thinking it out." Master Gu Hou is very happy today, not only because of the tea garden but also because of having a caring daughter.

Looking at this delicate and beautiful daughter, Gu Houye felt pain in his eyes.

"Xia'er, you are the daughter of the Gu family. Don't cook casually in the future. Let your father see your hands." Master Gu raised Gu Wuxia's palm and looked at it carefully. It was slightly reddened by the oil and water.

Master Gu felt even more distressed when he saw it.Gu Wuxia naturally saw the caring and loving eyes in his father's eyes.

I was secretly happy in my heart, my father still loved her the most.Then Gu Wushuang would never get such a loving look from his father.

"Daughter is fine, it's a daughter's duty to make snacks for daddy, daddy has worked so hard to take care of the family, Wuxia feels extremely guilty."

"Hey, silly boy, dad is a man, the head of the family, shouldn't he take care of his wife and children?"

Gu Houye said, looking at the sun outside, "Okay, the sun is too strong, you don't want to stay too long, lest you get sunburned. Go back quickly." Gu Wuxia saw the sun It is indeed a bit sunny, although it is cool under the tea shed, it cannot completely cover the sun.

So after saluting respectfully, she left gracefully wearing her maid, Qiaoyun. Before reaching the fence, she looked back and smiled at Master Gu who watched her leave.

"Master Hou, Missy is so caring." Old servant Lao Zhang did not forget to compliment Missy after seeing her leave.

"Hehe, this child is delicate in thought, gentle and kind, knowledgeable and reasonable, just like her mother."

Gu Houye's eyes fell on the food box, he reached out and picked up another piece of pastry, stuffed it into his mouth, and signaled Lao Zhang to eat it too.

Lao Zhang didn't push it out, and after respectfully thanking him, he also picked up the pastry and ate it.

"Qiaoyun, do you think Daddy likes this lady more or the second lady more?" On the way back, Gu Wuxia smiled softly, thinking of her father's loving and pampering eyes just now, she was very happy.

"Naturally, I like the eldest lady more. The eldest lady is gentle and graceful, with a kind heart and a kind heart. Master Hou must be very pleased."

"Hmph!" Gu Wuxia snorted contemptuously, her delicate and flowery face was full of pride and complacency, as if she was the same as the gentle, submissive, obedient and well-behaved young lady just now.

"Miss, don't worry, you are the eldest lady, Lord Hou will definitely value you more." Qiao Yun was still saying good things, and Gu Wuxia's pretty face was even more smug.

That's right, she is the eldest daughter of the Gu family. If there is a good family, she must be the first to choose.Father will definitely not be partial.

In the evening, the tea garden was quiet and peaceful. Gu Hou Ye came out of the lounge. After eating pastries in the afternoon, he took a lunch break.

When I woke up, the sunset had already set, and the golden sunset glowed in the tea garden, which was full of vitality like a ray of light rising from the ground.

"Master Hou, you got up, do you want to go back to the house?" The old servant Lao Zhang asked respectfully.

Before Master Hou could speak, the sound of a horse crying came from outside the door.

They looked at each other suspiciously, and walked outside the house together. At the intersection of the tea garden, Lord Hou's carriage had already stopped.

Gu Wushuang, who got off the carriage, was wearing a white and green dress.

"Oh, it's Second Miss." Master Gu raised his thick eyebrows slightly, and a gleam of joy flashed in his deep eyes.

When Gu Wushuang approached, Master Gu looked at his daughter who had three or four parts of himself, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

How wonderful it would be if it were a man!
Gu Wushuang understood the emotion in her father's eyes, so why didn't she sigh.

She would be willing if she was a man, but since God made her a woman, she would naturally not complain at all.

As for the disappointment in her father's eyes, she figured she'd figure it out.As long as the father is healthy, there is still a chance.

The aunts and aunts in the family are all competing for beauty, just thinking who can give birth to Lord Hou a son to inherit the incense, so that they can sit back and relax.

But for more than ten years, the more you fight, the more you lose, and the more you work hard, the more discouraged you become.

As a result, Hou Ye lacked interest in them later, he had no choice but to sigh to himself.

Even so, I still don't want to live in peace.

Gu Wushuang often suffers from headaches in order to protect his mother.

It is troublesome for this man to have three wives and four concubines. Isn't it good to stick to one end?
It is necessary to make the house restless, and the chickens fly like dogs.

　Sheeptail oil: the oil boiled from the tail of a sheep. After the oil cools down, the transparent oil will slowly condense into milky white lumps. Put it in your mouth and push it with your tongue. Melts away completely.
