Chapter 775
It's really strange. In the Qing Dynasty, there were those kinds of earthy kilns with off-season vegetables, which were grown in cave dwellings to keep warm.But the growth of vegetables requires photosynthesis and sunlight to grow well, so the Qing Dynasty did not develop large-scale vegetable greenhouses, and there were not many off-season vegetables, such as cucumbers, beans, and eggplants mentioned before. Vegetables that do not like sunlight, green leafy vegetables are gone.Dongzi products are not as delicious as seasonal vegetables, and they are more expensive.Therefore, Dongzi goods in winter can only be eaten by wealthy people.

Huang Gege said with a smile: "Ce Fujin, do you want to visit my concubine?"

"Okay, I want to see and see. Xuan'er go and get my cloak."

"Yes."

Huang Gege said: "Ce Fujin, don't you eat first?"

"I'm not hungry, but I want to see what's fresh."

Xuan'er took the cloak and put it on Yun Duo, and Yun Duo followed Huang Gege to her yard.

Huang Gege took Yun Duo to his small kitchen, opened another door leading to the outer wall of the small kitchen, and built a house, Huang Gege opened the door, Yun Duo walked in, the inside is not very big, but very To be warm, An made a fire-burning earthen kang head. The earthen kang has a chimney and burns coal, so the fire is never extinguished.On one side of the ground, a small vegetable field was excavated, and a skylight was opened on the roof, and glass was installed on it, and a thick straw mat was covered on the glass. If there was sunshine, the little eunuch would use a ladder to climb up to the roof and open the straw. With mats, the sun can penetrate the vegetable field, and if it snows, it can be covered with straw to keep warm.

At this moment, the cabbage in the vegetable field is very green.And shallots and celery.

Yun Duo said to Huang Gege: "Oh, Huang Gege, you have good melon seeds. From now on, we will have fresh green leafy vegetables on our dining table. If Fourth Master knows, he will definitely praise you."

Huang Gege blushed from the praise.

"Jin Fang Fujin Miao Zan, this concubine has been making this since summer. Fortunately, the eunuchs in the mansion are willing to help. I just tried it. I didn't expect the vegetables to grow very well, but this kind of vegetables The method can only grow a little food. The space is limited, too many can’t be grown, if the space is large, the temperature will not be enough. Moreover, these vegetables grow slowly, and they are only eaten once a winter. In addition, the cost is also high. High, we have to keep burning coal to keep the room warm enough, so growing vegetables like this is a bit extravagant, but luckily our prince’s mansion is not short of coal."

Yun Duo nodded, it was indeed a very extravagant way of growing vegetables, but Huang Gege was very smart to think of this chick.She smiled at Huang Gege: "You are already very good."

"Actually, this is an idea that Bai Gege mentioned before. I just tried it myself, but I didn't expect it to happen."

"It's your credit that it's done. Let the fourth master send some to the palace tomorrow, so that the emperor and concubine Xi and concubine Yu can taste something new, and let you show your face in front of them."

Huang Gege said happily, "Thank you Fujin for paving the way for this concubine."

Yun Duo smiled and said: "Thanks to your care during these few months, I have survived these difficult days safely, and I should help you."

~~
Yun Duo came out, very happy in his heart.If she has time in the future, she has to think carefully about how to improve the vegetable greenhouses that can be grown at this time in the Qing Dynasty.
