After drinking tea, everyone went out of the village, only to see that several villagers had already ridden on tricycles and waited outside. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Mei Xun said to Xu Ping with a smile: "It is said that Xu Bei's family is solid, and he is one of the few riches in the capital, and today I went to Zhuangzi to see that it was really the case." This kind of car, even in the imperial city, ordinary officials cannot sit between the yamen and go in their spare seats. I didn't expect you to be in the countryside Zhuangzi, just to treat guests as usual. ”

Xu Ping said lightly: "The bachelor has said it, this car was originally made in my Zhuangzi, just like the crops grown in the field, naturally you can eat what you have, and use what you have." ”

Mei Xun sighed, got into the car first, followed by Xu Ping, and then Han Ju and Su Shen.

It didn't take long to arrive at the garden, got off the car, Mei Xun looked left and right, only to see the flowers and trees in the garden, mixed with various fruit trees. The green apricots are still small, the tips of the fist-sized peaches are already pink, and the lotus flowers are blooming in the pond not far away. And the citrus aurantium begonia is in full bloom.

Nodding again and again as he walked: "This amusement park is really a paradise." It's a pity, it's a pity, it's far away from the capital, otherwise it's an interesting thing in life to visit the garden and relax in your spare time! ”

Xu Ping echoed casually on the side, and it was really hard to say anything. Now he regrets it very much, he knew that he wouldn't go to Mei Xun, and he went directly to the chapter, and the herd priest did what he wanted. His own credit is indispensable, and he also saves the effort of accompanying Mei Xun to enjoy the flowers and grasses, and it is good to accompany his family with this time.

When he got to the pavilion and sat down, he saw Xu Chang walking around outside the pavilion, Xu Ping guessed that he might have something to find himself, so he found an excuse to get up and went outside the pavilion.

Xu Chang asked in a low voice, "Junhou, how is the entourage brought by Master Mei entertained?" There are a lot of people, is it enough to kill pigs and sheep and have good wine and meat, or do you want to make some strange dishes for him? ”

"Good wine and good meat would be fine, but just let it be."

"Understood." After Xu Chang finished speaking, he turned around and left in a hurry.

The first time he received an important minister of the court like Mei Xun, not only Xu Ping was not used to it, but even Xu Chang and the people in Zhuangli were not used to it. If you eat poorly, you are afraid that others will pick up the gifts, which will affect Xu Ping's career, and if you eat too well, you will seem to have never seen the world.

Zhuang Ke served tea, and Xu Ping asked Mei: "Bachelors use tea, I always drink loose tea in the village, which has a unique flavor." ”

"It's nothing, loose tea is a lot less troublesome." For rich and idle doctors like Mei Xun, the magic of group tea lies in the various cumbersome steps when making tea, and the taste is secondary, which is not comparable to loose tea in any way.

After drinking tea, a dealer brought fruit. On the plate is a plate of cut watermelons, which were planted in advance by Zhuangzi experimenting with various grafting techniques, and are now just ripe. In Xu Ping's eyes, this watermelon is too small, black, and it doesn't taste very sweet.

Zhuang Ke put down a few plates, Mei Xun pointed to the plate of watermelons and asked Xu Ping: "Special, what kind of melon and fruit is this?" I've never seen it before, it's so big, I don't know what it tastes like. ”

"This is a watermelon, Deputy Envoy Li sent an envoy to Khitan and brought watermelon seeds back to the court, I asked for some to come back and planted them in this garden. These precocious, not very sweet yet, the bachelor is here, taste first. ”

"This is a watermelon? I have long heard that the Khitan has obtained seeds since Hui, which is extremely precious, and the taste is sweet and delicious, especially in the hot summer, eating a few bites is very quenching the heat and quenching thirst. I didn't expect it to be planted on the village, and today I was just able to catch up with a feast, fortunately! Luckily! ”

As he spoke, he took a piece in his hand with two fingers very elegantly, put it in his mouth and took a small bite, and nodded again and again: "It's really sweet as honey, and it lives up to its reputation!" And it's extremely crisp, and there is nothing like melons and fruits! ”

Even after eating a few bites, his face was full of intoxication, and he said to Han Ju and Su Shen beside him: "The two of them use it together, this is a rare thing to see, if you don't come to Xu to make a village, it is rare to eat a bite when you are free!" ”

Xu Pingxin said that he had planted a lot in the mansion outside the west gate of the capital, and when it matured, many people could eat it, but he didn't say it, so he couldn't spoil the scenery at this time.

Han Ju and Su Shen each took a slice and praised it again and again while eating.

To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is a strange thing to eat, and the taste is actually just like that. Xu Ping didn't know how much sweeter it was than this in his previous life, the surface of a good melon was cut with a layer of sugar, where did the watermelon in this era have that sweetness?

just took a piece in his mouth and pretended to accompany everyone to eat melons. He was a little disappointed in this watermelon in his own heart, but in the eyes of others, he thought he was humble there.

After eating the watermelon, everyone calmed their hands, and they were all satisfied.

After drinking tea for a while, Xu Ping saw that the sun in the western sky had reached the top of the mountain, and the day was about to pass. I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, the day's work had passed like this, and I still thought that I would see it tomorrow and rush back to the capital in the afternoon. At this rate, a day's work is only enough for Mei Xun to walk on the road, and he doesn't want to do anything.

Maybe this is the normal generation of this era, everything is slow and leisurely, and it is not normal for me and a group of subordinates to do things in the three divisions against time.

Since it was almost evening, Xu Ping had no choice but to tell Xu Chang to prepare dinner. In rural places, there are no good things to make any KitKat colors, nothing more than large pieces of meat, or roasted or boiled. Only the fresh vegetables grown in the garden are fried over a strong fire, which is refreshing and delicious in other places, which is not found in other places.

Waiting for the meal, Mei Xun sat bored and said to Xu Ping: "You said earlier that a horse can impregnate hundreds of horses, and this stallion must be extremely strong, and now that you have time, why don't you take a look?" ”

When Xu Ping heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and after a while, he said, "If you want to see it, you can." ”

After speaking, he instructed Zhuang Ke to lead the carefully selected Qingtang horse.

But in his heart, he kept slandering, and he asked Mei to inquire, not to see how the stallion was strong, but to see how the male and female made so many mares pregnant. The most important thing is not the stallion, but the technique of impregnating the mare, what does this mean by this Bachelor Mei? I don't look at what I should see, but I am interested in things that are useless.

But he didn't know that what Xu Ping thought was important didn't need him to ask at all in Mei Xun's eyes, and it was enough to let Han Ju go over and take a good look and report to him. Coming to the village today just shows that he attaches great importance to this matter. In his mind, he didn't send a public official over to find out what happened, but it was already for Xu Ping's sake. (To be continued.) )
