Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

After the fight, the father and son calmed down.

Zhu Zhanji stood up first and generously reached out to pull his fat father.

"Mom said Dad should move."

"I know. I'll show you the greenhouse."

Zhu Gaochi enjoyed it very much. He supported himself on the ground with one hand and let Zhu Zhanji pull him up with the other hand. He then took his son's hand and walked towards the gate of the manor.

"Okay, Dad. Dad, there is a problem with this pearl candy. It is too big and inconvenient to eat. It takes a long time to finish it. It feels a bit weird to spit it out and put it away before eating it again."

Zhu Zhanji pressed the candy in his mouth against his cheek, and his already round and symmetrical face became deformed.

"Then improve it and make it smaller."

Zhu Gaochi poked his son's face and laughed so hard that he choked.

"But if it's smaller it's not interesting. It's only beautiful when it's this big."

Zhu Zhanji felt that only a pearl this size was unique.

A while ago, my aunt from Shangshi Palace made hollow pearl candies with icing sugar that looked like small snowflakes in the middle. When you played with it in your hands, it looked like snow.

It's too small to do it.

Moreover, they can only be sold at a higher price if they are bigger, just like the gems brought back by Uncle Seventeen, the bigger they are, the more expensive they are.

My mother said that this would be the main livelihood of the royal family in the future.

"So what do you think we can do?"

Zhu Gaochi didn't know how to solve such a difficult problem, so he bounced back.

"I saw people selling maltose on the street stir the sugar with a bamboo stick, wrap it around their heads, and then hold it up and eat it slowly. Can we do the same with Baozhu candy?"

Zhu Zhanji thought about it and actually came up with an idea for a solution.

Although licking it might not look nice, sometimes he also wants to try whether it tastes better by licking it like this.

This is how the kids on the street eat, and their smiles look especially sweet.

"This seems to work. You can go to the Shangshi Bureau and try it out. Bamboo sticks won't work, but silver, ivory, or copper sticks should work. You can also make it into a flat round cake, which is easier to bite."

Zhu Gaochi did not object.

Having a candy and thinking about how to eat it is the fun of childishness.

He was happy that his son could still find fun to play despite so much homework.

Unlike him, he lost his childhood at an early age.

"Okay, I'll go try it with Laselle and my aunt later."

Zhu Zhanji switched the candy ball to the other side and continued to hold it in his mouth.

"Be careful they don't get burned. You're a boy so it's okay, but little girls get burned and get scars."

Zhu Gaochi gave a warning.

"Oh, they will wear gloves. Dad, when can we go back to the capital? I want to take my aunt to play in the snow. She said she has never seen snow."

Zhu Zhanji asked again after explaining.

"I don't know. We have to wait for your grandfather to come back. Your grandfather has to stay in the capital, so we can go out for a walk."

Zhu Gaochi felt that he might not be able to return until the capital was moved.

Given his father's current situation, after defeating Annan, he will at most come back for a short visit and then have to run back to the capital.

"Okay, I'll let Grandpa do it."

Zhu Zhanji understood the implication of Zhu Gaochi's words and sighed.

"Be careful, don't step on places like this that aren't bulging, they might be all mud."

"Okay, Dad."

The father and son walked leisurely along a small stream outside the village.

In the early spring weather, it is freezing cold in the shade and chilly under the shadows of trees, but it is warm in the sun.

Passing by the shadows of large and small trees along the stream, the cold and heat are particularly distinct.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji exchanged seats and left the side outside where the sun could shine for the little guy.

Zhu Zhanji was also very understanding and moved aside a little to allow Zhu Gaochi to bask in the sun as well.

Zhuangzi is very large. Not only does it have a winding stream, but it is also backed by a mountain.

There are as many as thirty hectares of land at the foot of the mountain. Almost all the vegetables, fruits, poultry and livestock used in the imperial city are sent there from the farm. Even the water is taken from springs in the mountains.

After walking for about half a cup of tea, the two finally arrived at the greenhouse where vegetables were grown.

When the person guarding the door of the greenhouse saw Zhu Gaochi coming, he suddenly felt a little awkward, not knowing where to put his hands. He opened and closed his mouth for a long time without saying a word. In the end, he just knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Zhu Gaochi waved his hand and asked people to stand up.

The man just lay there and didn't dare to look up, so he naturally didn't know that Zhu Gaochi had already called out.

Zhu Zhanji thought for a moment and stepped forward:

"Get up, follow us and talk about the farm things, okay?"

"Yes, yes, yes, little one. All right."

The person on the ground responded hurriedly, but after getting up he still didn't dare to look up at anyone.

"what is this?"

Zhu Gaochi walked in front, and Zhu Zhanji followed behind him, pointing at the small vegetable seedlings in the field and asked.

"To answer your Highness, this is rapeseed!"

"It's so small, how many days will it take for it to grow to be edible?"

Zhu Zhanji squatted down and fiddled with the leaves that were mostly yellow.

"It only takes three to five days for young plants to grow, but it will take ten days to half a month for bigger plants."

"What about that one?"

"It's winter night food."

“Vegetables that grow at night in winter?”

"I don't know, I've always called you that."

"father?"

Zhu Zhanji saw that he could not get to the bottom of the matter, so he turned around and called Zhu Gaochi.

"Green vegetables that can survive the winter."

Zhu Gaochi didn't know this, so he explained the name for the sake of face.

"What is our palace called?"

Zhu Zhanji asked.

"Uh... How about asking the village head to come over and explain this to you tomorrow?"

Zhu Gaochi was at a loss for words.

"Didn't they say that Dad went to Fengyang to farm?"

Zhu Zhanji was very dissatisfied.

"Yeah, I've planted them before, and I can barely tell the difference between rice and chives."

Zhu Gaochi was not ashamed. He said he was going to Fengyang to experience the hardships of the people, but in reality they could not endure much. Who would dare to let the princes and grandchildren really go there to farm?

“Only leeks and rice?”

Zhu Zhanji was a little shocked.

The teachers in the study praised the fact that the late emperor sent the princes and grandchildren to Fengyang to suffer.

"Yeah. Your second and third uncles can't even tell the difference."

Zhu Gaochi complained again.

A group of children, most of whom were good at fighting, went to Fengyang and started making trouble in the fields.

Why were Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui not liked by the Emperor's grandfather? It was because they didn't know how to pretend. . .

At least you can recognize a few things, and when the emperor asks you about it, you can take the initiative to explain it.

The emperor was very pleased and he got away with it.

They even fought and swore in front of the Emperor's grandfather. How could this be good?

"Second uncle and third uncle are a little clumsy. But they are stronger than daddy."

Zhu Zhanji was once carried on Zhu Gaoxu's shoulders to go out for fun. He was more durable than Zhu Gaochi, but he was not good at calculating when buying the candy figures and ended up paying several times more.
