Zheng Ying met Li Changan who was returning home from Mu Xiu today. The Li family who came together happened to bump into Zheng Yan coming to see Li Qiu Sui.

Mrs. Zheng agreed that her children would post a message to invite the Li family to visit her, but they had been in the capital for several months and kept making excuses. The brother and sister felt embarrassed to visit the Li family.

Sister Zheng Yan understood their mother's thoughts, and after struggling for many days, they reluctantly found someone who wanted to go on a flower-viewing trip.

"Will the plum blossoms bloom at this time?" Li Qiusui asked.

It must be at the end of the year or after the New Year anyway. Mrs. Zheng’s intention is simply not to get too close to her family. She doesn't have to stick to others and get angry with Zheng Yan's siblings. People treat them sincerely, and she doesn't just respond with sincerity.

Zheng Yan exclaimed, "Didn't we make an appointment in advance and wait until it opens to go together?"

Li Qiusui nodded, "You guys came just in time. They also said that the strawberries are ripe and I'm sending someone to bring you some. This saves you the trouble."

Zheng Yan saw that Li Qiu Sui was treating her as usual, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He did not continue to worry about the matter of plum appreciation, and just came to the door with random excuses. "Strawberries? Are these red fruits? They are like flowers, so beautiful!"

Li Qiusui motioned for her to pick one and try it.

Zheng Yan was not polite. She looked around and picked a big and red one. She picked it carefully and without being too particular. She bit off the tip of the strawberry and moaned: "It's so sweet... so sweet." tasty!"

After finishing her meal, Zheng Yan went to look for the next target.

Li Qiusui handed her a small bamboo basket and said, "If you like it, pick more and take them back." This was the first batch to mature, and there would be more later. "If you want to eat, you can come here again."

Even eating and taking it, Zheng Yan was embarrassed, fearing that the Li family didn't know how rare it is to eat fresh fruit in the capital in the winter, so she deliberately reminded: "This thing is so fresh and rare, even when it comes to giving gifts to honorable nobles during the New Year, it's all You have a face... Suisui, you don’t know, the location of the capital, the so-called family background, the famous family, even in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, there are many new ways that other families don’t have, and they can invite three or five friends to recite poems and paint. Yes. Just your strawberries, let me see, we can be fashionable and have a banquet of flower viewing and fruit eating..."

The Li family had no connections in the capital. Although Zheng Yan was joking, she deliberately reminded Li Qiu Sui to get to know more people.

Li Qiusui waved his hand, "I'm so busy with things at home, but I don't have time to do that."

There are a lot of people, a lot of right and wrong, and the relationships between various families in the capital are complicated. If you have some free time, it's more important to live your own life first.

“Sometimes I really envy your family’s character.”

Zheng Yan has learned to build good relationships with people since she was a child. The so-called reciting poems and painting are all done to not show timidity when going out, to join the group, to be in the limelight and to gain fame. How many of them are just for fun?

"Different paths lead to the same destination... all for the sake of living a good life..."

Several little girls here were chatting and laughing, while Zheng Ying and Li Changan stood outside looking at the overall structure of the greenhouse.

Zheng Ying, "Is it covered with glass? I heard it is the Sixth Prince's prescription. This thing has many uses."

Many people have installed it on their windows, which is beautiful and bright. It is said that someone from the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court came to install it. His grandfather, Mrs. Zheng, greeted the palace and sent people to the Ministry of Industry several times. He might not be able to do it before the year. After installing it, I just came in and took a quick look. All the windows of the Li family were covered with glass, and they even had a glass greenhouse.

Li Changan knew that his sister had given prescriptions to the Sixth Prince. Since she had given them to him, he had no intention of getting involved in the matter, so he said vaguely: "Everyone knows that we just came to the capital. My father has some ideas. We are in Huangzhuang." It’s too difficult to put it into practice over there. The Sixth Prince heard about the difficulties...hey, relying on his friendship in Linshan County, he used the first batch of defective products to build such a greenhouse."

The Li family came to the capital to plant crops and increase production. It happened that the sixth prince Fang Chenqi visited Linshan County at that time and reported to the county magistrate for recommendation. Anyone who catches this kind of good thing that has hundreds of benefits and no harm is lucky.

Zheng Ying did not question Li Changan's words at all, and even lowered his voice to help analyze the sixth prince's temperament, "His Highness the Sixth Prince does not have the arrogance of Tianhuang nobles. Although his face is more serious, if you really have something to ask for, if you don't Things that are harmful to nature and contrary to laws and regulations can be given real ideas or dealt with directly."

Since he is related to the Sixth Prince, and his family cannot clearly stand up to protect him, getting closer to the Sixth Prince's Mansion will be more conducive to the Li family establishing a foothold in the capital as soon as possible.

Zheng Ying looked through the glass greenhouse and looked at the little girl talking to her sister. Among a group of little girls, she was standing there casually in an ordinary home dress, but she couldn't hide her scorching eyes.

If he were two years older, held an official position, and had more say in the family, he would not suggest that the Li family rely on others.

Zheng Ying quietly released the clenched fists in his sleeves.

Li Changan didn't say much about his relationship with the Sixth Prince. He just nodded, indicating that he accepted his kindness.

Zheng Ying also talked about some connections between various families in the capital. This was the weakness of the Li family when they first arrived. One spoke cautiously, while the other listened carefully.

After seeing off the Zheng siblings, Li Qiu Sui called Zhao Da and sent baskets of picked strawberries to the Sixth Prince's Mansion.

It was not easy to increase the production of the original grain varieties again in a short period of time. Seeing the new year and the beginning of spring, Li Sanzhu wanted to make some achievements and gain more say in Huangzhuang, so he had to find another way.

The current glass workshop is no longer in the Prince's Mansion and has been moved outside the city.

Despite his good temper, Fang Chenqi was annoyed by the waves of customers coming to his door.

When Zhao Da came to the door, the gatekeeper had already received the order and knew it was the Li family. He didn't dare to embarrass himself and called a few helpers to help arrange the baskets of fruits.

After everything was done, Zhao Da was about to say goodbye and leave. The gatekeeper stopped him and said, "We have already given instructions for you to go and say a word before leaving. The younger one has already sent someone to find the manager..." He was afraid that Zhao Da would insist on leaving. , and hurriedly explained that it would not take much time.

Zhao Dake didn't dare to ask for help. It was said that the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister were afraid of causing trouble to the master's disciples. He quickly explained humbly: "I'm joking, I'm afraid of disturbing the purity of the house. You are also away from home." If you don’t drive anyone away, I’ll just wait and do it myself.”

It was the master's wish to have someone who could serve the master personally come over and give instructions. How could they dare to be careless and invite people to sit down in the tea room.

He carefully told the boy to serve tea, "There are two boys over there to support them. They are all insignificant people. We can all make the decision and send them away at will. Everything should be reported to the master. How about we also do it?" It’s really useless…”

Zhao Da chimed in with two sentences: "How can it be possible? It's serious."

The two of them chatted for a while, and Song Yuan came over to invite someone, "It's Butler Zhao, you're here in person! Does Miss Li have something to explain? Why bother you to go over and call me over? I can still Please help..."

Zhao Da still suspects that he is not that familiar with Song Yuan, right? I haven’t had a few contacts in total and don’t understand the truth. How big of a figure do you think you have become?

"You are joking, the fruit is ripe, the girl sent a small one to your house to bring some to try."

"That's great! It's also said that in this frozen world, with charcoal pots burning every day, it's very difficult to get a fruit."
