Chapter 206 Do you want a cousin?

"By the way, I haven't been to the farm for a long time. During the spring planting, we sent a lot of new seeds. I don't know what they have grown. I must go and see." If there are fruits and vegetables that will be eaten by future generations That's all right, living in this time and space where food for food is extremely scarce, Qin Zhao feels that he is really cheating.

For the rest of her life, eating and drinking are two things. Now she has no shortage of gold and silver, but she is guarding a huge wealth, but she can't eat. What's the matter?It would be a pity if people could not enjoy delicious food while alive.

Thinking about it this way, she decided to write a letter to Ah Tie when she turned around, telling him to find a way to pass through the caravans in the Western Regions and find more plant seeds from outside the region. It is suitable for planting, plant more and try more, and you can always successfully grow some crops and vegetables that are not available in David's country. You must know that the common dishes she ate in her previous life, such as potatoes, tomatoes, celery, etc., are also suitable for planting. There are none here that are imported from overseas.As for fruits, the Kingdom of David only had a limited number of things, such as apples and grapes. She didn't realize it when she was in Liangzhou. Xinjiang in Xinjiang is originally the origin of many original fruit species, but it is a bit hard to go back to the mainland of David.

The only thing that can be eaten today is wild pears, which should be the fruit of apples, and grapes are not something ordinary people can afford.However, papaya, the holy product of breast enhancement in later generations, is rather unusual.

Seeing the dreamy look on Qin Zhao's face slowly, Zisu pursed her lips and smiled: "The princess is really good. The gentleman came back after a long time. The princess should stay at home and accompany him."

Emotions also need to be cultivated. Although the lord treats the princess well, he doesn’t spend much time with each other. If he can get along more, he will always take the princess to heart in the future. Even if the lord is not often in Beijing, he can With such a capable brother behind him, who would dare to underestimate the Princess?In the end, Zisu felt that the princess' father and stepmother could not be counted on.Although the prince and the princess are uncles and aunts, they are separated by a layer.

That is, no matter how good Chen Laogong and Luo Laoguo treated the princess, they are not as confident as being close to their elder brothers.What's more, the two old gentlemen are old after all, if the two old gentlemen go in the future, who can guarantee that the future patriarchs of the two mansions will also treat the princesses with kindness?

Qin Zhao also laughed when he heard Zisu mentioning Qin Zhe: "I'm not afraid of this, anyway, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, brother, even if I go back to Beiting, I'm afraid it will be in August, so His Majesty may be happy and will stay. My brother will return to Beiting after the Mid-Autumn Festival. I have been busy for the past few days, and I have seen all the people who should see me. My brother should also be free. Because of the hot weather, my brother and I just happened to be a good cousin. Go to Zhuangzi to escape the summer heat. Later, I will ask the second sister and third sister if they want to go together. If we see some of the ones we tried to plant on the Zhuangzi, if there are good ones, they can just be sent back to grandma and grandpa Luo to try them out. "

Zisu said: "The Princess Changning and the County Lord Yixing may not be able to go to the farm together with the Princess. In previous years, it was June, because His Majesty and the Empress would take the palace people to Huangzhuang to escape the summer heat. The Lord of Yixing County will definitely go there too. Perhaps the Lord Changning County and the Lord Yixing County will invite you to go to Huangzhuang with them."

Last summer, Qin Zhao had been invited, but at that time the Duke of Yue came to pick her up and lived with Luo Che in the village of Luo's family, so she was not able to accompany her.

Qin Zhao said with a smile: "Although the royal summer resort is good, because it is in the mountains, the scenery is also the best. As long as His Majesty and the Empress are there, and there are those nobles in the palace, but they are not free, I am still willing to go to the farm. When the rain stops, you send someone to Yinyuan to ask if cousin and elder brother have come back. If they come back, please invite them to Fucui Pavilion. Because of the rain today, it is very cool. Go to the kitchen to cook something for yourself, and leave my cousin and elder brother to have dinner with me in the evening."

Zi Su answered "Yes".

Only Xiaoying and Qin Zhe were dragged away by Luo Jingnian for a drink and did not come back, so Qin Zhao had no choice but to give up.

This rain was heavy, and at night, it turned into light rain again. It continued to rain all night. Because of the coolness, it gave people a good night's sleep. The next morning, it stopped.

Shan Xiaoying and Qin Zhe did not go out.Qin Zhao then talked about his plan to go to the farm.

The two of them had nothing to do, and it happened that they were socializing around the city these days, and the two of them had grown impatient for a long time, so they naturally smiled and nodded.

Qin Zhao sent Zisu to report to the old concubine and Princess Jinyang, and then asked Yunshang to go to Yulan Juli to ask Changning and Yixing if they would like to go to the farm together.Sure enough, Changning and Yixing got word from the palace that they were going to the Royal Mountain Resort, and declined Qin Zhao's invitation.

As for the old concubine and Princess Jinyang, they are definitely right.

Qin Zhao decided to go out the next day, and Changning and Yixing would not go, which would save trouble, otherwise she would have to find an excuse to visit Li Sanniang in Luojiazhuang.Qin Zhao asked someone to pack up the things, and there were still some things to give to Li Sanniang.

After packing up his things, Qin Zhao remembered that Sanxing Juli should also report to him.

Because she often went out, the old concubine and Jinyang never restrained her, they just sent maids to report it, but Sansheng lived in the house, but he had to tell her in person, Qin Zhao really didn't want to face Qin Huai. Yong Heyun and the princess hesitated a little, Qin Zhe saw it, and said with a smile: "I'll go to Sanxingju and report to my father, so you don't have to go."

So kind, Qin Zhao said with a smile: "My brother loves me so much. I know that my brother spends most of his shoes and socks in the army. Later, I will make a pair for my brother, also called Zisu. They will each make two pairs. When my brother leaves Beijing It’s easy to bring. The climate over there is extremely cold in winter. I specially asked someone to cut the rabbit fur, and then I asked someone to spin it into the thread. The socks made out of this way are warm. I specially spun the thread with rabbit fur. I knit a rabbit fur coat for my brother. It’s very warm to wear inside in winter. But this time I can’t catch up. In the future, my cousin will often travel to the northwest and the capital. I will do it well. Let my cousin take it to my brother."

Qin Zhe felt warm in his heart when he heard this, rubbed Qin Zhao's head, and said with a smile, "Ah Zhao doesn't have to work hard, brother is fine in Beiting, even if others lack something, it can't be missing from me. I also collected a lot of good skins for Ah Zhao, and this time I brought them home, and you can go to the warehouse to pick them out later."

The two were acting like brothers and sisters, Shan Xiaoying curled her lips, feeling very uncomfortable.

Qin Zhaoyuan only had his elder brother. Now that his real elder brother has returned, why does he feel that his status is not guaranteed and he feels like he has been abandoned for life?
Feeling uncomfortable, he never wronged himself, so he naturally wanted to express it, sneered, and said: "I don't know when you became so virtuous, Azhao, and you can even make socks now? We can even make shoes now? Brother and sister have known each other for a long time, and I never knew? Since you are so capable, you also call me cousin, why don't you give me a pair of socks and shoes?"

Qin Zhao thought to himself that this guy is still jealous?But she also knew that she was too attentive to Qin Zhe, which probably made Shan Xiaoying upset, so she hurriedly started to make up for it: "Don't be annoyed, cousin, how can Ah Zhao not care about my cousin? It's just that we are always together, It’s rare for my elder brother to be at home, so Ah Zhao can’t help but think more about his elder brother. Whether it’s socks, shoes, or a rabbit fur sweater, how dare Ah Zhao lose his cousin? Cousin is sad and ignores me from now on, where can I find such a good cousin?"

Shan Xiaoying gave her a sideways glance. During this glance, she was really full of charm. What's the matter, it is also beautiful for a beauty to roll her eyes decisively.Qin Zhao was dazzled, and praised decisively: "If my cousin is a woman, I really don't know how many young gentlemen are fascinated. With this look, even Ah Zhao feels like a nine-day fairy..."

"Really?" Shan Xiaoying asked leisurely.

The voice was cold and wanted to kill, Qin Zhao shivered, and fell behind Qin Zhe without leaving a trace, not knowing whether he was dead or alive, and replied with a very innocent expression: "It's true! Brother, tell me, am I seeking truth from facts?"

Qin Zhe smiled and Mimi nodded, and said with certainty, "Yes."

Shan Xiaoying: ...

After a strange silence for a while, Shan Xiaoying said coolly: "Do you brothers and sisters think that if brothers and sisters join forces, I can't deal with you?"

Qin Zhao stretched out a small face from behind Qin Zhe, frowned, and said sweetly: "Cousin is invincible in the world, Ah Zhao and elder brother would never think so, and besides, cousin said something wrong, Ah Zhao was very angry, What are you brothers and sisters? Cousin and I are also brothers and sisters, so how can we talk about it?"

This dead girl is still in a good mood, she is the one who made him angry, but it's his fault?
Shan Xiaoying felt that she was showing signs of going berserk, Qin Zhe treated Shan Xiaoying differently because of her younger sister, and she was in a good mood at this time, how could Shan Xiaoying go crazy?After thinking about it, he laughed. Regardless of Shan Xiaoying, he pulled Qin Zhao out from behind, and asked with a smile, "What kind of cousin does Ah Zhao want?"

What kind of exhibition is this?Cousin?Huh, what does this mean?
"Cousin is going to get married? Why haven't I heard? My cousin looks so amazing. Sure enough, there are women in Chang'an City who are not afraid of inferiority and want to marry my cousin?"

Shan Xiaoying: ...

"It's the Duke of England's intention. Didn't we go to the Duke's residence with our uncle the day before yesterday? From the Duke of England's words, there is a meaning of wanting a single cousin to be his son-in-law."

British government?

Qin Zhao thought for a while, and there were only two prostitutes in the British government, both of whom were married.There are still two unmarried concubine daughters, one is 16 years old and the other is 15 years old, because the concubine daughters and them are really not in the same circle. Although Qin Zhao has seen them once or twice, she really has not paid attention to them.

Besides, the Kingdom of David attaches great importance to the distinction between concubines and concubines. The status of concubines is really no higher than that of slaves. Concubines like Luo Jingyun whose mothers are of noble birth are really an odd number.It's not that Qin Zhao looked down on the concubine, it was actually the concubine and the first daughter of the Kingdom of David, who enjoyed two completely different educations. What did the British Duke mean by wanting the concubine to marry Shan Xiaoying?Cousin is such an excellent person, even if he is white now, he is not suitable, right?Or the concubine that Uncle Li wanted to promise to his cousin in the British government is very outstanding in her own right?

Ordinarily, a concubine from the British government married a common man, that would be considered a low marriage, but isn't Shan Xiaoying's situation a bit special?
"Uncle Li really meant that? But the two sisters of his family have already married. I seem to remember that there are only two unmarried concubines in the Li family now... Uncle also knows about this? Uncle and Grandpa Chen , What does Grandpa Luo mean?"
