Smallholder Farmer

ps: I want to double update this month, but I can't make it no matter what, alas!

This kind of strange flower makes everyone who sees it dumbfounded. An ordinary green leafy plant, when it was first moved, it was just a bunch of small white flowers. , small flowers with yellow stamens. There is a plant that looks like an upside-down golden bell. Just these two pots of small flowers, under Yuyue's rain, unexpectedly, they become transparent, as if carved from ice, shining with cold light, against the The yellow stamens are perfect! It can only be described by these four words.

"Little girl, I knew you were powerful. You are so lucky. You can find out-of-print flowers for me every time, overwhelming all others!" The old concubine was very happy!

"As long as the old princess likes it, my uncle found it from the south,"

"Has he?"

"No, don't worry, the old princess," Yu Yue solemnly assured, knowing exactly what the old princess was worried about.

When everyone looked at these two potted flowers, they could only be described as stunned. This flower is really beautiful, and it will definitely win the first place. In fact, the other four are all prepared, which can be said to be exotic plants and rare flowers to send to the old princess, but no matter how you compare them, they are not as rare as the two potted flowers brought out by Yuyue. I have never heard of them, okay? .

The side concubines of Prince Xian's mansion really put a lot of thought into the Hundred Flowers Banquet here, and even the Confucius mansion, which has never been very interesting, decided to support the old concubine Xian because of the face of Miss Kong Shi's thinning. There are also a few pots of strange flowers and plants in the garden, and they are going to give the old concubine Xian a icing on the cake.

"This is not uncommon. It was taken out by Princess Cheng last time. This is not good either. It was also done the year before last. The blue color of the victory flower in the year before last was deeper than this. Absolutely not!" Mrs. Kong said in the flower room of her home. Pick one by one. All the gardeners are dedicated to the side, ready to contribute the flowers they have carefully raised

"grandmother……"

"What's up?"

"Can I still go to Princess Gao's Mansion?"

Miss Kong Shi, who has become thinner, is now extremely happy. She has not been home for a long time, and she can't remember how many times she asked to go back to Princess Gao's mansion.

"Didn't you see that grandma is no longer busy? Let's talk about it later!"

"Grandma, what are you busy with? I really don't want to disturb grandma. As long as you nod, then I can disappear immediately. I went to the princess's mansion, won't you be out of sight and out of trouble?"

It is true to say so, but why does it seem so awkward to hear this little girl say so? I know that there are big rules in the house. There are people watching every move you make, but it can't be you talking about going to other people's house all day long, right? Is it so cold at home?

Madam Kong thought of this, she patted the pole of the soft sedan, and stopped immediately.

"What's the matter with you? I always heard that you wanted to disturb Princess Gao's mansion. Let me tell you. Why are you?

"I'm going to find Brother Fan to play quietly!"

"Brother Fan? You want to play with your younger brother. There are so many younger brothers in that family. Don't you want to play with your younger brother?"

"What's so good about our family, everyone is only good at the beginning of life, good-natured, and stupid, so it's fun for the younger brother of the Fan family."

"Your brother is not for fun, how old is he?" Madam Kong's thoughts were far away,

"Three years old. Or four years old, I didn't ask!"

Whether you ask or not. Mrs. Kong ruled out the random thoughts in her mind, and she felt relieved immediately, just saying, it is impossible for such a strict tutor in her family to teach a wild girl who has no rules.

"Grandma thought you wanted to play with Concubine Fan."

"How can I be so ignorant, Sister Fan is now a married person, an adult, and there are many things to do, I just go to find Brother Fan to play."

"He's too young, what can he play with you? Why don't you go find your brother to play with!"

"Grandma, don't you know that our Kong family's elder brother or younger brother, how can we compare with the Fan family's elder brother and younger brother?"

Why does this sound so uncomfortable, Mrs. Kong looked at her:

"Nonsense, don't talk about younger brother, brother, what's wrong with your older brothers?"

"What's so good, stupid, not as good as Brother Fan's family, if I can choose, I would naturally like Brother Fan's family to be my brother!"

"Have you met Brother Fan?"

"Of course I have. Jinyu told me a lot. Brother Fan can catch butterflies for Jinyu. Can my brother?"

He turned out to be a dude, these things, naturally our children of the Kong family can't compare with them!

"What kind of skill is this? You don't want your brother to be your brother?"

"Isn't this not a skill?"

"Of course it doesn't count! A man is better than reading a book!"

"Brother Fan is not bad either. Does my brother dare to compete with him in martial arts? Jinyu said that his brother is all-rounder in both civil and military affairs!"

"What are you talking about, how many people in this world can be called all-round talents in civil and military affairs, children are ignorant, they are not allowed to go out, I have something to do, be careful, I will let your father teach you!"

"Hmph, grandma is just unfair. Isn't my brother Fan an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, and he is more handsome than all my brothers and cousins! I won't tell grandma anymore, I'll go find my mother!"

"Just go, anyway, it's almost the holidays, don't be unruly, during the New Year's Eve, you are not allowed to disturb other people's homes!"

"Then how about I write a letter and ask Jinyu to come to my house to disturb me?"

"It's so funny, you asked him to interrupt? Whether he comes or not is another matter. Is your Jinyu brother only three or four years old? Can you understand your letter?"

"Who said you can't understand at the age of three or four? I'll just write it! I'll let him come and find me to play with!"

Miss Kong Shi found a solution to the problem, and immediately took everyone there... Seeing the back of her granddaughter walking away, Mrs. Kong was thoughtful:

"Wow, Zhishu, have you heard that Miss Ten mentioned this younger brother of the Fan family?"

"My servant has heard that according to Miss Ten, the younger brother of the Fan family knows everything. Anyway, the nest of ants that destroyed the lady's embroidery room was sent by the second master of the Fan family, and the eldest lady That scary box of butterflies!"

"He's also a mischievous one. How old is he? When he grows up, there will be cockfighting and lackeys. Doesn't it make people worry?" Mrs. Kong said negatively: "You go and tell the eldest lady, Miss Ten really let me know that I'm a child. If someone delivers a letter, send the letter first and let me see!"

Miss Ten really sent someone to send a letter. Her letter was written in a picture and text, and she even drew the route to Confucian Mansion. The white characters, the good lower script, made Mrs. Kong very happy to see it.

"Well, send it. If there is a reply, bring it to me before sending it to Miss Ten!"

The reply came quickly, basically waiting for it. The mother-in-law who delivered the letter was waiting in the front yard, watching the writing by the little boy who was slapping it.

"You mean, the Princess is not at home?" Mrs. Kong asked curiously while opening the letter.

"Mid-Autumn Festival, the girls of the Fan family are going back to Gao's house for the festival. I heard from the housekeeper that they are going to prepare gifts. I heard that they are going to make mooncakes by themselves and go to the Zhuangzi to get ingredients. They want to make fresh ones for Mrs. Gao. Listening to the old slave, it looks like some kind of mouse in the bamboo, maybe I heard it wrong!"

The letter he opened was completely unexpected, and every single word was written out. Although it was spoken in plain language, it made things clear. The adults were not at home. Is this the child's own thoughts?

"Is this written by the young master of the Fan family?"

"The old slave handed the letter to him. He opened it and read it in front of the old slave. Then he told the old slave to write a reply and then went into the house. The old slave didn't see it with his own eyes..."

"This child can read and write. He is only four years old. He is so amazing!"

"Ma'am, the young master should have written it himself. When he came out, there was ink on his hand!"

"How do you look?"

"It's a funny look..."

"Take the letter and go, give it to Miss Ten, don't let it pass my hand!"

"It's the old lady!" The old lady took the letter and went down.

Madam Kong smiled and nodded, interesting, this Fan family is really interesting! The letter written by Fan Jinyu is very good. Although the writing is not very good, and the size is uneven, it can be seen that this child is really writing. What is rare is that he is well-organized. There is no adult at home, and he knows how to speak modestly. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I must come to visit the mansion. I also politely wrote at the end of the letter, please send hello to Miss Ten's elders. In the letter, I didn't forget to brag about the food my mother made, saying that there was a finished product, and I must give it to Miss Ten and her elders to try it out.

This is a trick of the class. Have you never heard of Confucian cuisine? The Kong family has been passed down for thousands of years, and there are many unique and unique dishes. Even the royal chef in the palace did not dare to boast that they can cook the dishes in the Kong family's untransmitted recipes. In other words, Mrs. Kong didn't think that there was any food to show off at the door of Kong's house, even though it was just a child.

Mrs. Kong didn't take this little kid's promise to heart, but five or six days later, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fan Jiajinyu actually sent a gift to Confucius' mansion. In Fan Jinyu's personal honor. The things sent did not say that they were only for Miss Kong Shi, but for the fifth sister of the Kong family and the tenth sister of the Kong family.

Mrs. Kong visited it for a while, and now she has a new understanding of the Fan family. This so-called moon cake is really not in her family. It is also very strange. The core is roses. It is crispy and sweet on the outside, it really makes people forget it once they try it, and the same meat that was delivered was rare llama meat, which was only eaten in the palace, and the Kong family had never made this dish. It was quite unexpected. The small bamboo baskets delivered with various fruits, although ordinary, tasted really good. Mrs. Kong was very happy, and decided that the Confucian Mansion had to prepare a copy for the August Festival. Send it to the princess mansion.

The Confucian family always gave gifts without books, so they gave away a "Poetry" handed down by their ancestors. This is really an ancient book, and it cannot be said to be the work of the sage Confucius, but it is also a book that future generations personally noted. , all scholars regard it as a holy book. Let's put it this way, that is, there are several books of the same level in Taixue, which are specially built libraries. (To be continued.
