Chapter 517: I will definitely give it to you next year
Seeing the prince's expression, Old Cao curiously picked up an ear of corn and started biting it. His expression changed after one bite.
Like Murong Bai, he looked incredulous, staring at the sticky corn in his hand.
It's not like he had never eaten corn before, but the kind was always hard and woody, and didn't taste as good as the one in his hand.
It is not only soft, glutinous and sweet, but also has a hint of sweetness, almost as good as eating pastries.
Qin Chuchu was very satisfied with their expressions and nodded happily.
"Yes, this is the sticky corn we harvested in the greenhouse this afternoon. Doesn't it taste delicious?"
Not to mention these ancient people, even I had a special liking for sticky corn in my previous life and could never get enough of it.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough of it in the refrigerator at home all year round, and my grandma also planted such a large area of it in the villa.
“…………”Murong Bai didn’t say a word.
He just stared at Qin Chuchu in front of him, and then looked at General Cao.
Could it be that this girl was also responsible? After all, she always surprises me.
Seeing what the prince was thinking, Old Cao just gave him an affirmative look.
I have a lot of things I want to say to the prince, but I know this is not the right time, so I can only wait for another opportunity in the future.
Murong Bai also realized that General Cao had something to say to him, but he also knew that this was not the right time.
Looking at the corn in his hand, he thought of the crops he saw in the greenhouse, and his gaze turned to Qin Chuchu in front of him.
"Where do you get the sticky corn seeds?"
This is the first time I have eaten such delicious sticky corn, and I have never found it on the market. I wonder where Han Muchen got the seeds.
"These seeds are mine. As for where I got them? Hehe, it's a secret."
Qin Chuchu looked at Murong Bai proudly. Although she had a good relationship with her elder brother, she could not tell anyone about the matter of the space except herself.
Seeing the mysterious look on this girl's face, Murong Bai shook his head and laughed, then tapped her head with the fan in his hand.
"You're still keeping me in suspense."
Qin Chuchu was so happy that she raised her chin proudly.
"Hey, I don't have any, but if you want seeds, I can give you some."
Qin Chuchu looked at the elder brother in front of her. Although she couldn't tell him where the seeds came from, she could still give him some seeds.
After hearing her words, Murong Bai's eyes lit up.
"Oh!" But he quickly returned to a playful look.
"Are you sure Han Muchen will agree?"
This sticky corn is a rare variety. Based on my understanding of Han Muchen, he probably won't agree to give me the seeds.
What's more, this girl is a coward in front of him and should not be able to make the decision.
After hearing what her elder brother said, Qin Chuchu felt unsure. After all, she heard from that living devil that the sticky corn seeds might not be enough.
It's not a good idea to issue a military order in front of the eldest brother, so I can only take back what I said.
"Even if I can't give it to you this year, I can still give it to you next year."
“…………”Murong Bai shook his head and laughed.
He tapped her head with the fan again. He thought Han Muchen was not here, so he knew this girl had to act tough in front of him. He didn't expect her to be so timid.
"Hey, brother, I really didn't lie to you. If I can't give it to you this year, I will definitely give it to you next year."
Qin Chuchu scratched her head embarrassedly, as if she remembered something, and looked at Murong Bai in front of her.
"Although I can't guarantee that I can give you corn seeds, I still have some seeds of other vegetables. I'll give you some when you leave."
After saying that, he put his mouth closer and said in a low voice:
"You can't let anyone else know."
“…………”Murong Bai.
Looking at the mysterious little face in front of him, he remained silent.
I'm afraid the other person this girl is talking about is Han Muchen.
But he was still very happy in his heart. If he could take the seeds from the greenhouse back home, he could try to plant some.
If it succeeds, it will be a good thing for the country and the people. After all, the vegetables people eat now are too monotonous.
Apart from potatoes, radishes, pumpkins, etc., most wild vegetables in the mountains have a astringent and bitter taste, and the taste is really not that good.
While they were talking, Xiao Shitou, with sweat all over his forehead, ran back excitedly.
"Brother, do you think my Kung Fu has improved?"
As he spoke, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. Even though he said this, his face was very proud, as if to say, "Look how great I am."
Seeing that the boy was asking for praise, Murong Bai was not stingy and nodded with satisfaction.
"Yeah, that's right. What Master Cao taught me is indeed good. If you practice for a few more years, I'm afraid even my big brother won't be able to beat you."
After hearing what his elder brother said, Little Stone was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
Apart from the prince, his eldest brother is the only person he admires. If he can really defeat him, it would be such an honor.
Just when she was happy, she saw the sticky corn in her second sister's hand and snatched it away.
"Second sister, is this the sticky corn you mentioned?"
He had already bitten his teeth as he spoke, and a light suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"Mmm, delicious, so sweet!"
As he spoke, he began to eat it mouthful after mouthful. I had heard from my second sister that sticky corn was delicious before, and now that I ate it, it tasted really good.
"Of course. Isn't it delicious?"
Qin Chuchu looked at Xiao Shitou proudly, then looked at Mr. Cao who was eating with relish, and swallowed.
If I had known that the old man was here, I would have taken out an extra ear of rice. Now I can only watch them eat, and I feel a little greedy.
The old man also noticed it, and not only did he not give her any, he even smacked his lips, which made Murong Bai, who was standing beside him, shake his head and laugh.
“…………”
General Cao did this on purpose. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't believe that the old man in front of you was the stern General Cao of the past.
I haven't seen him for more than ten years, and he has become a naughty old man.
Seeing that the old man was deliberately trying to lust after her, Qin Chuchu glared at him from ear to ear.
If he wasn't afraid of exposing his space, he would have taken out a large pile of corn, which would have scared him silly.
But this is just something I can think about in my mind. If I really do that, they will think I am a monster.
Looking at them eating the delicious corn one by one, if I don’t think of something to do, I will not be able to control my saliva.
He reached into his arms, took out a lollipop and put it in his mouth.
It's hard to take out big things, but small things are still possible.
Seeing the lollipop in the girl's mouth, the old man immediately reached out his hand.
"Give me one."
This girl gave me one last time. It was quite sweet and much better than the malt sugar I bought at the market.
Seeing that the old man also wanted it, Qin Chuchu rolled her eyes at him and turned away.
"No."
He has taken all the sticky corn and now he wants his own lollipop. No way.
Seeing that the girl refused to give it to him, the old man swallowed the last mouthful of corn. Just as he was about to come over to grab it, a figure appeared in front of him and pressed down.
When Qin Chuchu saw the man in front of her, she was so scared that she vomited the lollipop in her mouth.
"My Lord, why are you here?"
