Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 60; Surprise

"I know this is a courgette. I've seen it on the farm at home before."

Lu Tingfeng pointed to a small piece of land not far away.

The courgettes in his mouth are the cucumbers of later generations. At this time, those courgette seedlings have already sprouted vines. Although they are still very short, there is no problem with their growth.

"This is coriander and cabbage."

Huo Jinyan also pointed at the vegetables he knew and screamed.

Listening to the fuss made by the two, Huo Junyao rolled her eyes.

Look at this look that has never seen the world. He is the prince and the prince, and he is the marquis.

Simply shameful.

"Are we dreaming? Come on, brother-in-law, let me slap you to see if it hurts."

Huo Jinyan turned around and looked at Lu Tingfeng.

"Why don't you smoke yourself?"

"I'm afraid of pain. Seeing as you have rough skin and thick flesh, you shouldn't be afraid of pain."

Lu Tingfeng rolled his eyes and said, "Who is thick-skinned and thick-skinned?"

But when I saw the pretty face of my brother-in-law, I felt a slight comparison in my mind. Aren't I just rough-skinned and thick-bodied?
Huo Junyao almost laughed while listening to their conversation.

These two guys are pretty funny.

In the end, Lu Tingfeng was slapped, and the two of them were convinced that everything was not a dream and was all real.

Then the two of them squatted down and carefully reached out to touch the green seedlings.

"You should be careful. I made these with great difficulty. They haven't grown yet. If they are injured, they won't survive."

The two nodded repeatedly, promising that they would never hurt these little things if they touched them lightly.

"Really, it's actually true."

"Of course the nonsense is true. My body is still burning and hurting. I said, second brother, you are too cruel."

Huo Jinyan's slap just now was indeed a bit harsh, hitting Lu Tingfeng's arm directly. Lu Tingfeng was still feeling some burning pain.

"I couldn't control it for a while. It will be fine after a while."

Lu Tingfeng rolled his eyes, but didn't care.

The two had known each other since childhood and had a very good relationship. Later, they became brother-in-law and brother-in-law, and their relationship became even closer.

After Huo Junyao inspected this one, he went to the next greenhouse, which grew the same vegetables as this greenhouse. The area of ​​these two greenhouses was relatively smaller.

There was no problem with the third greenhouse, and she went to the fourth one, which was the largest of the four greenhouses, to grow corn.

The growth is also very good, but the growth cycle of corn is longer, and she is not using it to eat, but to plant it to see if it can be used as seeds for next spring.

She still has [-] acres of land. If everything goes well, the corn in the greenhouse should be able to double again by then.

"Little sister, what is this?"

"secret."

She would not tell others about corn now. It was something that could cause a sensation, and she was not confident that she could grow it yet. After all, winter would come next, and the temperature would be even lower than now.

If the news spread early and attracted the emperor's attention, but in the end it was not planted, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

The two looked at each other and didn't ask any further questions.

"I see that these are growing very well. If this continues, wouldn't it mean that we can really eat vegetables in winter?"

Huo Jinyan still felt it was a bit unrealistic.

Even after seeing it with his own eyes, he still had doubts.After all, this has completely subverted his common sense.

"What's the point? There used to be vegetables in the winter, and you could grow them next to the warm soup. Why can't I imitate the environment of the warm soup and see them?"

As soon as she said this, the two of them suddenly understood. Yes, it was not that vegetables had never come out in winter before, including warm soup vegetables. They had eaten them in previous years. Although the quantity was not large, they did eat them.

"So that's it. Little sister, you have such a good mind. You can actually think of such a solution."

After realizing that it was made to imitate vegetables in warm soup, all the doubts in Huo Jinyan's heart were dissipated.

Instead, I felt that my little sister was too smart, and the greenhouse was also very good. She actually thought of using this method to imitate the temperature around the warm soup, thus achieving the effect of reversing the four seasons.

"It's still in the trial stage. Although it's growing well now, it's still late autumn after all. Compared with winter, it's still better."

“If you can survive the winter, then you are truly successful.”

Both of them nodded in agreement.

"However, to be able to reach this point, little sister, you are already very powerful. If you can succeed, it will benefit the people even more."

Hearing this, Huo Junyao shook her head and said, "Even if it succeeds, I'm afraid it won't benefit the people."

"Why? Is my little sister unwilling to teach?"

"It's also a magic that can be regarded as reversing the seasons. It's really not suitable for external stories."

After hearing this, Huo Junyao shook her head and said, "It's not that I don't want to teach, it's just that the cost and energy invested are too much."

"If nothing else, just for this greenhouse, I used the most common cloth, a total of two hundred pieces."

"Second brother, do you think ordinary people can afford so much cloth?"

Just kidding, many ordinary people in the Yu Dynasty are still very poor now. Let alone two hundred horses, it is very good to have a new set of clothes all year round.

"Too."

The two of them only noticed the dishes inside, but not the materials used to make the greenhouse.

So much cloth can be afforded by ordinary people there. Even the worst white cloth costs more than a hundred yuan a piece, right?
How much do these two hundred horses cost? Many people may not be able to earn that much money in their lifetime.

"It's almost time for lunch, second brother, brother-in-law, let's go."

"Today I had someone stew tofu and fish soup. My brother-in-law hasn't tried it yet, right? You'll give it a try later."

Hearing this, Huo Jinyan's eyes immediately lit up. He couldn't forget the tofu and fish soup since the last time he drank it.

"Tofu and fish soup? I've heard of this name before. Your eldest sister said it's very delicious."

"Oh, yes, I gave it to my eldest sister last time, but my brother-in-law didn't drink it for you?"

Hearing this, Lu Tingfeng smiled and shook his head and said, "Last time, my little sister sent it to you. Your eldest sister liked it very much after drinking it. She also asked me to try it. But when I saw that she liked it so much, I let her drink it all. She is pregnant now. My appetite is not very good. It’s rare for me to eat something I like, so how can I grab it?”

"It turns out that my brother-in-law is very kind to my eldest sister."

Huo Junyao smiled, feeling a little more fond of this somewhat naive brother-in-law.

If he can be so kind to his wife, he shouldn't be a bad person either.

When Lu Tingfeng was praised like this by her, he scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Brother-in-law, drink more for a while, and I'll have someone stew it again later. Since eldest sister likes it, when brother-in-law goes back, he will bring some back to eldest sister."

"Okay, thank you, little sister."

The three of them left the greenhouse and went to the living room. There was also a fireplace here and it was very warm. As soon as they sat down, Xiao Chan came over and asked if they wanted to serve food.

"Well, come on, and then tell the chef to make another pot of fish soup, and ask my brother-in-law to bring it back to my eldest sister later."

Xiaochan responded and stepped back.
