Chapter 236, good things
Because of time constraints, Daohua and his party didn't have to play for long before they were ready to go home.
"When will the sunflower seeds be harvested?" Before leaving, Xiao Yeyang asked suddenly.
Ina Hua wondered: "What do you ask this for?"
Xiao Yeyang: "This sunflower is a birthday gift you gave me. Of course I will come to collect it."
Daohua was stunned.
Before, she did say that this sunflower was given to Xiao Yeyang. However, as a wealthy little lord, shouldn't his attention be on the sea of flowers? Why did he even notice sunflower seeds?
She is still going to sell melon seeds!
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yeyang suddenly guessed her thoughts, and said unhappily: "Why, you plan to give half of this gift and receive half of it by yourself?"
Daohua quickly shook her head and denied: "Nothing, as soon as the sunflower matures, I will send someone to tell you."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang only then showed satisfaction.
The gifts given to him, naturally, they have to be taken back in their entirety.
When left, Xiao Yeyang also asked Defu to pick a few sunflowers, saying that he would take them back and put them in a bottle.
Seeing this, Dong Yuanxuan and the others were also very moved. However, before they could speak, Xiao Yeyang directly refused: "This is my birthday gift. Are you embarrassed to ask for it?"
How many sunflowers are there for a person, and there are a dozen people present, how many sunflowers will this harm him?
Dong Yuanxuan several people: "."
One hundred acres of sunflowers, they are very happy to ask for it!
Dong Yuanyao curled her lips and whispered to Su Shiyu: "I didn't expect that the little prince was such a stingy person."
Su Shiyu is quite understandable: "The little prince does not want everyone to pick flowers. That can only show that he cares about this gift. Think about it for yourself. Share it with others?"
Dong Yuanyao smiled immediately: “It’s fine to share, but it’s okay to see it.”
Soon, the group began to walk back.
Under the Xingzhou City Gate, everyone except Zhou Jingwan had to return to the Wuhua Mountain.
Taohua took over two exquisite wooden boxes from Qin Xiaoliu, who had returned to Yan's house in advance. These are simple cosmetic boxes made of imitating modern cosmetic boxes.
"This is a meeting gift for my two sisters."
Dong Yuanyao has been thinking about the lipstick. Hearing Daohua’s words, she quickly took the box with a smile and opened the box.
The makeup box has three layers. The top layer contains various types of makeup brushes, the middle layer contains twelve-color lipsticks, and the bottom layer contains moisturizers and gouaches.
"so much?"
Dong Yuanyao looked happy, the rouge gouache in the box covered everything needed for daily dressing.
Zhou Jingwan stood aside and craned her neck to look, and saw that there were not as many things in the box as what Daohua had given her, and her face suddenly showed a happy smile.
Sure enough, she is Daohua’s best friend.
Su Shiyu did not expect that she also had a gift, smiled shyly, and shyly accepted the makeup box in Daohua's hand: "Thank you, sister Yan!"
Daohua smiled and shook her head: "You are welcome, just like the two sisters."
"I like it!" Dong Yuanyao took the words immediately, and then looked at Daohua with embarrassment, "I like this very much, thank you."
At this time, Yan Wenkai’s urging voice arrived: “It’s okay, if you don’t leave, the sky will be dark.”
Daohua immediately replied: "Okay." Then, she looked at Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu, "Two sisters go slowly. Next time you have time, you must come to my house to sit and sit."
Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu both nodded quickly. After saying goodbye to each other, they carried the makeup box and walked towards Dong Yuanxuan and the others.
The two left, Xiao Yeyang, who was standing by, snorted, and glanced at Daohua dissatisfiedly: "I thought you prepared a gift for me today?"
Ina Flower: "It's really only you. I prepared the two cosmetic boxes after the last ride. I wanted to give them to my sisters Dong and Su a long time ago, but I didn't have a chance."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang's face improved a bit, but he also felt that he was a big man who cares about these trivial matters with a lack of demeanor, and his face was a little uncomfortable.
Daohua didn’t notice it, but just urged: "Come on, you are still having a banquet over there!"
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, and wanted to reach into his arms and take out the blindfolded handkerchief before giving it back to her, but he hesitated, put his hand back, coughed, and said, "That's OK. We are gone."
took a few steps, then turned around, "That. I like a gift." After speaking, he quickly left.
Looking at Xiao Yeyang's back as if he was leaving, Daohua suddenly smiled: "This guy, with an awkward appearance, is quite cute."
Hearing this, Zhou Jingwan looked at her eyebrows, then shook her head.
She doesn’t think Little Prince is cute!
For the little prince, especially when he was stern, she was still quite scared. I really don’t know how long Daohua’s eyes are, she would think that the little prince is cute.
"Okay, let's go back too!"
After seeing no one, Daohua and Zhou Jingwan got on the carriage and returned to the city.
After June, the weather has improved, it is not raining, and the watermelons and grapes on Zhuangzi have gradually begun to mature.
The watermelons, grapes, and rice flowers that were collected were not sold in the fruit and vegetable shop. Instead, they borrowed the boat from the Zhou family, took them to the provincial government, and sold them directly to Uncle Li’s family.
The same is true for the production in the fields of Yanjiazhuangzi.
This is because Yan Zhigao distributed watermelon seeds and grape seeds at the prefectural government during the spring plowing this year, but people in Fanxingzhou’s jurisdiction can receive about one mu of seeds from the prefectural government and go back for trial planting as long as they hold their household registration. .
Because it is distributed free of charge, there are still many people who receive it. Nowadays, watermelon fields and grape sheds can be seen everywhere in Xingzhou.
In order not to seize the market with the common people, the Yan family also has the way of selling the Li family, so they simply did not sell it in Xingzhou City.
After mid-June, many vendors came to Xingzhou City, all of them came to buy watermelons and grapes.
In the past two years, the Li family took the lead in selling watermelons and made a lot of money. Later, they opened a winery and made a fortune. Some business-sensitive businessmen saw the huge profits brought by watermelons and grapes and began to pay attention.
Since knowing that Yan Zhigao wanted to promote watermelon and grapes in Xingzhou City, the Li family deliberately helped publicize it. Therefore, news of the production of watermelons and grapes in Xingzhou spread in Zhongzhou Province.
"This year there was a lot of rain. I thought that the watermelon would not be sweet, but I never thought that the watermelon in Xingzhou was not affected."
"Yes, this taste is better than what I had eaten in the south a few years ago. You can buy more and sell it in the north. It must be especially popular with high-ranking households."
Vendors made a field trip and found that the watermelons and grapes in Xingzhou were indeed good, and they all started to take action.
In this way, the people who grow watermelons and grapes have more or less made some money.
Yan House.
Everyone in the Yan family can obviously feel that Yan Zhigao is in a good mood during this period.
Yan Zhigao, on this day, everyone got together, and the old lady Yan couldn’t hold back, and asked, “Boss, have you picked up money these days?”
Yan Zhigao smiled. Just about to say something, Yan Zhiyuan on the side spoke first: "Mother, you don't know, Brother, this is even happier than picking up money."
The old lady Yan came to be interested: "Oh, talk about it, what good happened?"
Yan Zhigao coughed a few times and cleared his throat: "This year there is a lot of rain. I am worried about the reduction of grain production in the fields and the people's life is sad. But before the state government was promoting watermelons and grapes, now vendors from all over the country are pouring into Xingzhou. As the people have extra income, I can rest assured."
After hearing this, Mrs. Yan also laughed: "This is indeed a good thing."
Yan Zhiyuan smiled and said, "This year is the third year that my eldest brother has served as Xingzhou Zhizhou. With this achievement, my eldest brother will definitely rise again next year."
Yan Zhigao hurriedly waved his hand to stop: "Second brother, don’t talk nonsense about this. Appointing an official to serve is a matter for the court to consider. For the brother, you only need to do your own part, and you can’t make any arrogance in the future."
Yan Zhiyuan immediately responded with a smile: "It's my brother who talks too much."
Yan Zhigao didn't hold on, glanced at the eldest daughter quickly, and sighed suddenly when he thought of the difficult situations facing Linzhou Zhizhou.
The eldest daughter is really his lucky star. If she hadn't proposed to promote watermelon and grapes, he would be devastated now.
Because of the heavy rain, the reduction of grain production in the fields is already a certainty. Now that the people in Xingzhou have money in their hands, they can survive this year.
As it was almost noon, the Yan family was preparing to eat. At this time, Guanjia Sun hurried in.
Yan Zhigao put down the dishes and chopsticks: "What happened?"
Sun housekeeper: "Master, Master Xiao just passed a message, saying that Jiguang Province, above Zhongzhou, has broken its bank, so you can go back to the state office soon."
Hearing this, Yan Zhigao stood up immediately, and left with Steward Sun before he could say anything.
