"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense! I don't know what vitamins are! I just eat a few of your vegetables and I'll pay you back in a few days...!"
Ying Zheng rolled his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "If there weren't enough cucumbers and tomatoes in my vegetable greenhouse, would I be so picky as to pick your stuff?"
These words were spoken confidently and without any hint of guilt.
"Father also built a vegetable greenhouse?"
Ying Feiyu asked suspiciously.
How come he doesn't know about this?
"That's right! Is it possible that only you can build it and I can't?"
Ying Zheng raised his head and said slightly contentedly.
In the past, it was extremely difficult to eat fresh vegetables after autumn.
Only in the hot springs near Xianyang can a small number of vegetables be cultivated, and each one is very precious!
Now that glass is available, you can grow vegetables by building a glass greenhouse and strictly controlling the temperature inside.
Even in winter, you can still eat fresh vegetables!
"It's not that it can't be done, but...how did my father build it?"
Ying Feiyu was somewhat puzzled.
Last year, Daddy Zha even sent people to his house to ask for vegetables, proving that no vegetable greenhouse had been built yet.
And he has stayed in the palace almost throughout this year. If construction starts in the palace, there is no way he will not receive the news!
"Although I have a Zen position, I still have some strength, right? I ordered people to build a vegetable greenhouse, but the Ministry of Industry still dare not refuse!"
Ying Zheng smiled leisurely.
"Um?"
Meng Yun and Meng Yu, who had been playing dumb before, suddenly raised their heads when they heard the word "Ministry of Industry."
Isn't that the department that their uncle is in charge of?
Seeing this situation, the Ministry of Works built a greenhouse for the Supreme Emperor, but His Majesty had no knowledge of it.
Your Majesty shouldn't be angry, right?
"Where is the vegetable greenhouse built? Why have I never heard of it?"
Ying Feiyu looked suspicious.
Although the vegetable greenhouse does not require a large area, it is impossible for him not to know that it is being built in the palace!
"It's just outside the city in Feng Quji's field! Haha!"
Seeing his surprised expression, Ying Zheng felt much better and burst into hearty laughter.
"I see!"
No wonder he didn't hear about it, it turned out that he wasn't in the palace at all.
"Haha! This winter, you are not the only one who has fresh vegetables to eat, I am the same...!"
Ying Zheng was very proud and asked provocatively, "Do you have any objections?"
"My son, do you have any opinions...?"
Ying Feiyu waved his hand and continued: "Building a glass greenhouse requires special glass, which is expensive! My father can take care of my son's business, and it's not too late for my son to be happy!"
The method of making the glass has not yet been disclosed.
Although the private sector has worked out some, the purity is not good at all, let alone this kind of special glass with high hardness.
Only the glass factory under his control can produce it!
Daddy is taking care of his business, what can he say?
"you……!"
"But there's one thing I don't understand! Since you're building a greenhouse to grow vegetables, why did you choose to build it in Feng Quji's field?"
Ying Zheng rolled his eyes in anger at his words and was about to retort when Ying Feiyu asked a question first.
"I met him in the palace before. During the chat, we talked about the location of the greenhouse. Feng Quji said that the soil of his family's farm is fertile and close to the mansion. He can help take care of it, water it, and fertilize it. There is no need to worry about it anymore. The gardener in the Labor Palace!"
When he said these words, the expression on Ying Zheng's face seemed to be that he had taken advantage of him.
"Oh! No wonder then!"
Ying Feiyu nodded and said something meaningful.
"No wonder? What do you mean?"
Ying Zheng seemed to hear something unusual in these words! This kid is definitely not just talking casually.
"It's no fun! If my father doesn't have enough vegetables in the future, he can go to my son's vegetable greenhouse to pick them. Just let me know!"
Ying Feiyu hugged his shoulders and sat down in his seat.
What he said seemed very generous, but no matter how much Ying Zheng thought about it, he felt something was wrong.
Both inside and outside the words, it sounds like you are complaining that he picked vegetables without informing you?
Furthermore, he built such a large greenhouse. How could there not be enough to eat when the vegetables inside mature?
What does this guy mean?
Could it be...Feng Quji...?
"not good!"
Ying Zheng seemed to have thought of something, slapped his thigh fiercely, and then stood up.
"Brother Zheng!"
Lian'er grabbed him and nuzzled at the new uncles. Then he slowly sat down with his back molars clenched!
"Today is the homecoming family dinner, what are you going to do, Brother Zheng?"
After stabilizing him, Lian'er came to his side and asked quietly.
"What an old fox! Let me just tell you! How could such a big greenhouse produce so few vegetables? The old fox must have picked it secretly! If Feiyu hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have reacted yet! "
Just now, Ying Zheng was still feeling proud that someone was taking care of the vegetable greenhouse, but after a few words from Ying Feiyu, his teeth immediately started to itch with hatred, feeling that he had been deceived.
At the same time, I am very grateful to Ying Feiyu.
If it weren't for him, I still wouldn't understand it yet!
"Old fox? Your Majesty is talking about Feng Quji?"
Lian'er asked suspiciously.
"If it's not him, who else could be there? Only he can enter my greenhouse!"
Ying Zheng's chest rose and fell very much, and he was obviously angry.
"It shouldn't be possible, right? Maybe the seeds were planted a little later, so there are less mature fruits!"
Lian'er has also heard a lot about Feng Quji and has some understanding of his personality.
The former prime minister, later the minister, has now been re-employed.
You shouldn’t steal a few vegetables!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! When the banquet is over, I will settle the score with him!"
Ying Zheng's eyes were red with anger, and Lian'er couldn't listen to anything he said. He put his hands on his hips and waited for the banquet to end.
Although Xiao He and others did not know what Lian'er said, they heard Ying Zheng's words clearly.
In this case, how could they dare to delay? I quickly drank the sake in the glass in front of me, took two bites of the food, and said I was full!
The Supreme Emperor was so angry that they didn't dare offend him.
If they were to waste time and make the Supreme Emperor angry and burn their heads, it would be more of a loss than a gain!
Therefore, it is wisest to take a few symbolic bites quickly and end the banquet early!
"Why don't you eat?"
After a while, Ying Zheng found that none of these new uncles moved their chopsticks, sat on their chairs obediently, and asked questions.
"I'm already full!"
Xiao He and others quickly bowed their hands.
The princesses also followed suit and saluted, "My children and ministers are full too!"
"That's it! Let's all go away, let's go away!"
Ying Zheng was already anxious, waiting for their words.
Before they could finish their words, they waved their hands and left in a hurry!
"Pfft..."
Seeing this scene, Ying Feiyu couldn't help covering his mouth and snickering.
