Chapter 851 Twenty or thirty?
Helian Rongjiu suddenly said: "You and she bought fruit alone?"
"No, it was given by Miss Murong, and I told the master to taste it."
After Zequ finished speaking, he untied the rope on the cloth bag, revealing the red fruit inside.
Looking at the fruit inside, Helian Rongjiu widened her eyes in surprise, stood up abruptly, took one in her hand and looked at it, and said in surprise, "This...is this a lychee?"
"Yes."
Helian Rongjiu said excitedly, "That girl planted it?"
"Yes, although my subordinates knew that Miss Murong would not lie, but after she left, I went to the small barren mountain to see in person. There are indeed lychee trees. And they have also begun to bear fruit, that is, the red ones are less, this should be When it's just beginning to mature, she plucks it all off."
"Then how many lychee trees did you see?"
"My subordinates are likely to be discovered, and it will be passed on to Miss Murong to make her care. I just looked at it roughly, there should be at least twenty or thirty pieces."
"Twenty or thirty?"
Helian Rongjiu laughed and said, "It's a great joy to be able to grow lychees in the capital. The mother and Ningxin are very happy now, but they think that the tributes from the south are not enough to eat every year, and now they don't have this trouble. And it's so close to the capital, as long as there are trees, you can always eat the freshest."
Seeing that the master was so happy, Ze Yuan also smiled and said: "Master is right, every year the local tribute lychee has to be kept fresh every time, every time he has to rack his brains, even so, it is not fresh in the capital, if the capital has it, this The problem is solved.”
Helian Rongjiu nodded: "You are right."
After saying that, he couldn't wait to peel it off and ate one, and nodded in satisfaction: "That girl's planting is indeed better than tribute, fresh and sweet."
Just as he was about to eat the second one, Wei Jingxuan's voice suddenly came from outside the door begging for a meeting.
Helian Rongjiu said, "Let him come in."
After Wei Jingxuan came in, he saw the lychees on the table, his eyes straightened.
"Is the lychee in the south ripe? Why did the tribute come so early this year?"
Helian Rongjiu said: "You came just in time, come and taste it. It wasn't sent from the south, it was planted by Murong girl's family, and it was just delivered."
Wei Jingxuan was also shocked, these were actually planted by Murong Lingran? She is too great.
Since Brother Jiu wanted him to taste it, he didn’t delay, and hurriedly grabbed one and started to eat it.
Helian Rongjiu smiled and said: "Zeyuan Zequ, you guys also try it. In the past, the number of lychees that paid tribute was small, you didn't have a chance, now it's alright, eat as much as you like."
Zeyuan said hesitantly: "Master, neither the Queen Mother nor Princess Ningxin have eaten, we are just servants..."
Helian Rongjiu said indifferently: "It's okay, the mother and daughter of the Queen Mother have always been kind and would not care about these details. When the tribute is mature every year, we are not the first to eat it, and we don't know how many people eat it in the place of origin. pass."
Seeing that he has said so, the two of them are no longer tangled, and at the same time nod in surprise: "Thank you, Master."
After saying that, I started to eat.
After eating one, Wei Jingxuan licked his lips aftertaste, and praised: "Not bad, delicious, I knew that girl was not ordinary, but I didn't expect to even grow tribute."
Helian Rongjiu's face was full of smugness, as if he was the one who planted the lychees, and asked expectantly, "Is it even more delicious than the tributes?"
