Su Wenyue looked at Xiaoxi with a smile. Although Xiaoxi seemed much calmer outside, she was still noisy in front of her and did not hide her thoughts. She was the Xiaoxi she was familiar with.
"They are seeds from the Western Regions. They are very precious. How did Madam get them from such a far place in the Western Regions?" Xiao Xi asked curiously.
"What a coincidence! I got it from the spice shop." Su Wenyue told Xiaoxi the origin of the seeds.
"It's because the madam is kind-hearted that the owner of the spice shop was grateful, so he got these seeds. This is what they call good things being rewarded." No matter what, in Xiaoxi's mind, the madam is the best person in the world. If it weren't for the madam, she might have been gone from this world long ago and been tortured to death by those evil people.
"You are still so good at talking, but it's useless to just say nice things. You have to do my job well. It's not easy to get these seeds again. You can plant half first and leave the other half. If they don't survive, you can try again." Su Wenyue instructed Xiaoxi, and told Xiaoxi about her understanding and knowledge of these seeds.
"Madam, don't worry. I will definitely get things done. The vegetables in the greenhouse are growing well, and the first batch will be ready for harvest soon. I specially brought some here for you to try." Xiaoxi said as she had someone bring up a basket of picked vegetables. There weren't many, after all, they were still some time old and too fresh to be picked. So Xiaoxi only picked this box and sent it over just to let Su Wenyue have a taste, and also to let Madam see the result of her hard work these days.
Su Wenyue was very happy to hear that this was the first batch of vegetables grown in the greenhouse, which meant something different to her: "That's great, I'm a little tired of eating the same things these days, I want to eat some fresh vegetables."
It was also a coincidence that Han Yu was not alone when he came back at noon. Deng Chen was also with him. The main reason why Deng Chen followed Han Yu back was because he was a foodie and craved the food in Han Mansion. Sure enough, before Su Wenyue opened her mouth, Deng Chen said, "Sister-in-law, I'm here to eat at your house again. Don't be disgusted. Just cook anything delicious and I'll make sure to finish it."
In the past, Han Yu and Deng Chen didn't know each other's age, so they called each other Brother Deng and Brother Han. Now that they mentioned their ages, Han Yu was two years younger than Deng Chen, so they started to address each other according to their ages. They also changed the way they addressed Su Wenyue. Su Wenyue seemed young, and it always felt weird for Deng Chen to call her Sister-in-law.
Deng Chen was a straightforward person, at least in front of Su Wenyue. He did not hide his thoughts and made requests in a careless manner. Su Wenyue, on the contrary, liked such cheerful people, who were easier to deal with, and smiled.
Seeing this, Han Yu also said, "Wife, I'll trouble you to arrange lunch today. Ask the kitchen to prepare a few more delicious dishes. Brother Deng and I want to have a few drinks."
Although his status has changed now, Han Yu is still accustomed to calling Su Wenyue his wife, which makes him feel closer and more comfortable.
"Yes, thank you for your help, sister-in-law. There is no need to be too much delicious food."
Su Wenyue smiled even more when she heard what Deng Chen said, "What's the point of bothering me? I'm so happy that Brother Deng is willing to come. It just so happens that the farm sent some fresh vegetables today. I asked the kitchen to fry them so that we can have something new. I'm tired of eating the same old things in this winter."
Han Yu was not surprised by Su Wenyue's words. He did not pay special attention to what his wife did on the farm before, but he knew something about it. His wife always liked to tell him what she did, which made Han Yu very happy. However, when his wife said that she grew vegetables in winter, he was skeptical. He did not expect that his wife really figured it out.
Deng Chen was surprised to hear that fresh vegetables were delivered in such a cold winter. After all, no one used greenhouses to grow vegetables at that time. Su Wenyue was the first.
"In the middle of winter, there are actually fresh vegetables. Are they grown on your farm? This is really strange."
"It's nothing, just a few greenhouses. The idea is simple, but no one has thought about it before. I just thought that I was tired of eating the same old food in winter, so I came up with this idea."
"My sister-in-law is really thoughtful. It is said that it is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. I came at the right time today. My sister-in-law, you must make enough food for me. I have a big appetite." Deng Chen reminded again. He was really not satisfied with the meal at the Han family last time, so he was always thinking about the food at the Han family.
"Husband, Brother Deng, you guys chat first, I'll go to the kitchen to make arrangements."
Su Wenyue was in a good mood today. On the one hand, she had a lot of good seasonings, and on the other hand, there were fresh vegetables sent by Xiaoxi. Not only did she ask the kitchen to prepare a lot of dishes, but she also cooked a few dishes herself. It could be said that the meal was quite sumptuous.
Deng Chen was even more satisfied with the meal this time, because at Deng Chen's special request, Su Wenyue not only prepared a lot of dishes, but also sufficient portions. Deng Chen's stomach was a little full, but he was reluctant to put down his chopsticks when he saw that there were still many dishes on the table. Han Yu was speechless when he saw Deng Chen like this.
"Brother Deng, if you think my family's cooking is delicious, just come back next time. Anyway, we have moved to the capital now, and our two homes are not far away. Don't overeat so much at once."
Deng Chen felt a little embarrassed after hearing what Han Yu said, so he put down his bowl and chopsticks: "Okay, it's settled. I will come to your house often in the future, so please don't think I'm annoying. It's really strange. I don't know where your chef learned such good skills. This cooking skill is better than the dishes made by the best restaurant in the city."
"Brother Deng, just come." Han Yu wanted to make friends with Deng Chen, so he was naturally happy and agreed readily. It would not be easy to make friends with someone like Deng Chen, unless he really had similar interests and liked food. After all, it was not only Deng Chen's own identity, but also the Deng family behind him.
Deng Chen originally came to Han Yu's house to eat and drink for free. After he had eaten and drunk his fill, he left. Han Yu and Su Wenyue sent him to the door.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Brother Han, sister-in-law, you don't have to be so polite, otherwise I won't be able to come to your house next time."
"Brother Deng, take care. The vegetables on the farm will be ready for picking in a few days. I'll have some delivered to your house then."
"Okay, I'll thank you here first and let your sister-in-law have a taste too."
After seeing Deng Chen off, Han Yu did not go anywhere else. He just took Su Wenyue back to the room. Su Wenyue had some things she wanted to instruct in the kitchen, and Han Yu asked Su Wenyue to deal with it later. Su Wenyue had no choice but to follow Han Yu.
"Husband, is there something urgent that needs to be done? Can't you wait?" Su Wenyue was very curious about what Han Yu was doing in such a hurry.
