The cute little milk bag, the group's pet, actually farms in the palace

Chapter 160 Concubines grow vegetables

It had been drizzling for several days in a row, and Xia Qingqing stayed in the yard without going out.

I was thinking that after all the rain, it would be the Grain in Ear season, and it would be time to sow seeds.

This is the most important moment of the year.

Before it rained, all the palace maids were asked to go to a piece of land and reclaim the land.

It’s just right that it rained during this period. After the rain stops, we can go farming.

She was excited at the thought of farming. She was a pure farmer's child and her family would take her along when they farmed since she was young.

She also liked the smell of the soil, so she was admitted to graduate school.

Although the people at home didn’t quite understand why they chose agriculture as their major as graduate students, after all, they just wanted to get rid of their identity as farmers.

But she just likes this major. Without agriculture, a country will have no subsequent development.

Many people think that farmer is a derogatory term, but in her heart, farmers are a group of lovely people.

When Xia Qingqing recalls the past, she still feels sweet in her heart.

"Princess, it's not raining outside anymore, we can go out now."

Xia Qingqing looked up and saw that it was true. They could indeed go out.

It rained outside, so there was a lot of mud on the ground, and it was very dirty when you stepped on it.

But Xia Qingqing didn't care about these things. She walked towards the queen's bedroom. As soon as she entered, she saw the queen still drinking tea leisurely.

There is peace in the harem now. No one has the energy to compete for favor, and no one has to be on guard against this or that.

Even Concubine Lin no longer bullied her like she did before.

This kind of life is pretty good. No one comes to disturb me. I am free and the emperor doesn't come here often. It's so nice.

But the only drawback is that sometimes it is too boring. Mahjong can only be played for a while. If you play it every day, you will get bored.

There was really nothing else to do, so a few days ago, Xia Qingqing told her that she wanted to farm in the palace, and she immediately agreed.

She has never farmed before, but it sounds like a lot of fun.

After Xia Qingqing returned, she called the concubines in the palace over and told them about this matter.

They feel the same way now. It is too boring to stay in their own palace every day. They cannot leave the palace and don’t know what to do inside.

I had never experienced farming in the palace, so I agreed.

I also heard that you can take home the vegetables and grains you grow to eat.

Although we don’t have to worry about someone poisoning the food now, this experience is really interesting. We can grow whatever we want to eat.

Although everyone is quite harmonious now, the concubines of lower status still have less food to eat.

If I can grow my own vegetables for myself in the future, I won’t have to see the faces of those people in the imperial kitchen anymore.

On this day, Xia Qingqing gathered everyone together. When they saw such a large piece of cultivated land, they didn't know what to do for a moment.

So Xia Qingqing called them over and demonstrated it to them first.

"Just watch, I will distribute seeds to you later, and then you will plant them yourself. Pick a piece of land that belongs to you and plant your own vegetables."

They also had their own land. They watched Xia Qingqing demonstrate the sowing movements. It looked simple, and they could do it immediately.

"That's easy. I got it."

After saying that, he began to choose his own piece of land. In fact, the land had already been divided into pieces and surrounded by a fence.

This way it will be more obvious. After they have chosen, Xia Qingqing will give them a brand with their names on it.

It's their names, not their titles.

Looking at the name above, they were all a little dazed. After hanging up the sign, this would become her own vegetable garden.

They started sowing seeds using the method Xia Qingqing had just taught them.

They chatted and planted seeds in the garden, with happy faces.

They used to think these things were dirty, but now they seem quite fun.

Everything was going on here in full swing. Xia Qingqing also planted some vegetables and fruits nearby. When summer comes, she will be able to eat some fruits.

It makes me excited just thinking about it.

But fruit trees will take many years to grow, so don’t be impatient, as you can eat the fruits that ripen quickly.

For example, strawberries and watermelons can be eaten in the summer.

She began to drool at the thought of watermelon.

It’s really a joy to eat a bite of cold watermelon in the summer.

There is not much land here, so we can only grow some vegetables and other things, but not other crops.

The others had already finished planting and ran over to ask Xia Qingqing.

"Princess, can we raise some pigs or something?"

Xia Qingqing raised her head and looked at her. It seemed that this was quite good. It was really possible.

There seems to be a relatively large area on the east side. You can raise some chickens, ducks, cows and sheep there. It would be very nice.

"Mother, shall we raise some chickens, ducks, cows and sheep over there?"

Seeing the queen coming, Xia Qingqing asked.

The queen agreed without thinking. Since it was her daughter who said so, of course she had to agree. Besides, she had already planted the vegetables, so what was wrong with raising some poultry?

Speaking of raising poultry, Xia Qingqing suddenly thought of something. After finishing planting vegetables, she decided to go back with the queen.

"Mom, I suddenly want to raise cows. Lots and lots of cows."

The queen didn't understand, "Why do you raise so many cows?"

"Mom, do you think milk tea tastes good?"

Speaking of milk tea, when Xia Qingqing gave it to her before, nothing was added into it.

Later on, there were pearls and taro balls, each of them was delicious.

"It tastes delicious." She believed that there was no girl who didn't like this.

“Milk tea is made with milk.”

Looking at Xia Qingqing's innocent eyes, she understood that her desire to raise dairy cows might be related to milk tea, right?

"Are you going to make milk tea?"

Xia Qingqing nodded, "But we can't drink that much milk tea, right?"

With so many cows, how can they drink all the water?

Even though this thing tastes good, you can’t drink it every day, right?

Xia Qingqing shook her head, "No, mother, I want to sell it."
