Chapter 420: Early Spring Peaches

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The early spring peaches here at Dongnuan Zhuangzi are ripe, and the improved varieties at Shanglinyuanjian last year are all bearing fruit this year.

After Dong Nuan's advice and using the homemade fertilizer Dong Nuan mentioned, the fruit produced this year is indeed good.

Although Mr. Lin feels that the size may be a little bit smaller, it is not bad. Anyway, it is much larger than the varieties they have cultivated before.

Moreover, the improvement process is not particularly troublesome. Even if it is used for private use, the cost is not high, and many people can still afford it.

Even if you can't afford to improve it, but the cost of homemade fertilizer is low, you can still use this to increase the yield of peaches!

The basic material for homemade fertilizer is plant ash, which is available in every household.

Therefore, low cost can be promoted.

Mr. Lin has already picked peaches here and went to the palace to announce the good news.

Here in Dongnuan, when I first came to Zhuangzi, I found that there were already several familiar carriages from noble houses parked outside Zhuangzi.

A maid is negotiating with the steward, probably wanting to get in?

The person in charge of external affairs is naturally the former chief steward. He has many years of experience in dealing with the powerful people in the capital and is familiar with the powerful people in the capital, so it is most suitable for him to be here.

The chief steward's idea is that the first batch of peaches in early spring must belong to Dong Nuan, the owner, and he will come to eat them himself.

But when others heard the letter, they really couldn't wait for a moment and came right away.

There was also Miss Meng from the eldest princess's house, who was in charge of the affairs and was in a difficult situation for a while.

"Nuan Nuan!" Meng Rong had sent his confidant Nanny to negotiate with the chief steward. She was sitting in the carriage, looking out from time to time, and then she saw Dong Nuan's carriage.

Then she couldn't sit still anymore and jumped out of the carriage.

The maids around me have long been accustomed to their master's behavior, so one by one, they reacted very calmly, without changing their expressions.

Just behind him, he followed quickly.

Meng Rong walked very quickly and arrived in front of Dong Nuan's carriage within a few steps.

Dong Nuan heard the sound and hurriedly got out of the carriage.

She originally wanted to jump out of the car, but now she is taller, but due to the original owner's poor overall statistics, she is still not very tall.

However, she is very familiar with things like jumping from carriage to carriage, so it is not a problem at all.

But Meng Rong looked at Dong Nuan, who was so small, and felt really uneasy.

So, before Dong Nuan jumped down, she caught her and lifted Dong Nuan out of the carriage with one hand.

Winter warmth:?

Hanjiang Tower emerged from behind:??

After Meng Rong finished carrying it, he calmly put down Dong Nuan and helped smooth the clothes, and then said pitifully: "Are the peaches ripe?"

If he hadn't eaten it last year, Meng Rong felt that he wouldn't be hungry for this bite of peach.

But, I had it last year...

Later, after it was gone, she still wanted it for a long time.

I've been waiting for an autumn, plus a winter, and a spring, but finally it's here.

No, as soon as she received the letter, she came eagerly.

Meng Rong was able to get the news because it was really not her who planted spies on Zhuangzi.

In this regard, Meng Rong said that it is not the case, it is really not the case.

She is really not that dark to do such a thing just for a peach.

Yesterday, the boy who went to report the news was driving a donkey cart and met Meng Rong who was returning home. He gave way to the nobleman. Meng Rong opened the curtain and took a look and found that the boy looked familiar.

Think about it carefully, isn't this the boy at Dongnuan Village who always follows the big steward?

After thinking about it, Meng Rong, who realized something was wrong, stopped and asked his grandma to ask about the situation.

The young man also knew that this was the eldest daughter of the eldest princess, the eldest lady of the Meng family. How dare he not tell her.

Moreover, the chief steward also mentioned it early in the morning. When others ask, just say normal things. You also need to let the nobles know that the peaches are ripe and you can pay for them... Oh no, come and eat them.

Therefore, the young man said honestly that the first batch of peaches in early spring were ripe and now had a crisp and sweet taste. He went to his house to report to his employer.

When Meng Rong heard this, he endured it all night and came over early this morning.

I also met Wen Shuran on the way. He got up early in the morning to buy books. There was a particularly powerful gentleman in Beijing recently, and his scripts were very beautiful.

Therefore, it is normal to get up early and go to a squatting spot.

Meng Rong doesn't read storybooks very much, but her brother likes to read them, so she can understand.

She just casually told the other party about Tao Zi, and then the other party didn't buy the story and followed her.

On the way, I met many people one after another, and then everyone came together with each other.

Dong Nuan didn't know that there were so many things going on in between.

When Meng Rong asked, she didn't hide it. She originally hoped that these noble people would come over more often and send more money.

Therefore, when the other party asked, she responded generously: "Yes, the chief steward said that a batch has been cooked. Come over and see how it goes and whether you can eat it."

Meng Rong was excited when he heard it, and the noble people behind him who were paying attention were also excited.

It’s good when it’s cooked, it’s wonderful when it’s cooked.

When the peach is ripe, it screams!

Dong Nuan generously invited people in.

Of course, the rules were set last year.

There is no charge to enter Zhuangzi, but if you want to enter the orchard, you have to pay an entrance fee of 5 taels of silver.

Fresh fruits picked later will be priced separately.

Those who can come here early in the morning because of a bite to eat are those who are not short of money.

So, everyone happily paid the money and went to the orchard together.

Meng Rong quite likes the feeling of riding in a donkey cart, mainly because the weather is getting hotter and hotter. The donkey cart has an open top, which makes it cooler to sit on.

However, other noble ladies had the burden of being noble ladies and had to grit their teeth to endure the heat, so they did not sit down.

Wen Shuran, on the other hand, took the seat with a generous attitude and followed Hanjianglou.

We all set off with donkeys, carts and carriages, and went to the orchard together.

The chief steward had sent a long-term worker to report the news in advance. The steward over there got the news and came out to pick him up soon.

Not many early peaches are ripe, but because there are so many peach trees, only ten are ripe on each tree, so the number picked is quite considerable.

What's more, there are more than ten ripe ones on each tree.

"The trees on this tree are beautiful, they are all pink and tender."

"Nonsense, this one is obviously better, I want to pick this one!"



After the nobles passed by, they made a comparison.

Of course, everyone has different opinions. One person thinks tree No. 1 is better, while another thinks tree No. 2 is better.

Seeing them like this, Dong Nuan still felt a little regretful. It would be great if there was communication. She had even thought about what she would do if she really went somewhere with Hanjiang Tower in the future.

She encircled a piece of land, started planting trees, and started adopting people.

Yun Yang trees, takes videos every day and sends them to the tree owner. After the fruit is produced, it is mailed to the other party.

Unfortunately, communication is not enough, and today's technology cannot support this.

I want to use some fairyland methods, but I don’t have enough spiritual energy.

However, winter warmth is just a casual thought.

She came to the orchard not entirely to entertain the nobles, but to pick some peaches to take home with Hanjianglou.

So, after dealing with Meng Rong and the others, and seeing that the nobles were already picking the peaches, she happily picked up the peaches with Hanjianglou.
