Next, Qin Xiaoxiao experienced firsthand how sensible and well-behaved the twins were. When she wanted to comb her hair, she silently and diligently handed over the comb; when she wanted to wash her face, she clumsily wrung out the handkerchief; when she sat down to eat

When feeding, each cloth dish is fed with a spoon.

Looking at her healthy hands and feet, she felt more and more that something was wrong with the two little brats. When Jing Heng came in, she stared at him and asked, "Are you talking nonsense to them again?"

Jing Heng denied it flatly: "No, they haven't said a word to me since I got up in the morning."

Qin Xiaoxiao was shocked, and quickly looked at the twins, and sure enough, she saw their father who did not look at them seriously, and when he looked at them occasionally, he was filled with anger, as if their father had done something outrageous.

Based on her understanding of the two little bastards, they were almost sure to have overheard the fuss last night and caused some misunderstanding. For a moment, she was just glad that the two little bastards were still young and didn't understand anything, otherwise it would have been impossible.

I'm too embarrassed to sit here.

But what needed to be explained had to be explained. She put down her chopsticks and asked the twins to look at her: "Well, your father and I were playing around last night, just like you two can also play around."

Nao Nao made it clear that he didn't believe it, while Mo Mo showed doubts about it: "Really? My brother and I both heard that our father beat our mother, and she cried so sadly."

Qin Xiaoxiao was so embarrassed that her face turned red: "Everything that doesn't happen is just an act. Haven't you seen the show? Then the people on the stage were sad when they cried. That's not really crying."

Momo suddenly realized: "So that's what happened. My brother and I thought that my father was going to beat my mother to tears because she wanted to give birth to a sister."

Qin Xiaoxiao finally understood what the two boys had misunderstood, and couldn't help but rub their little heads: "It's okay, even if your father does attack me one day, you can't ignore me like you are today."

She glanced at her father silently, then she nestled into her mother's arms and said dullly: "If father bullies mother, I won't like him anymore, and I won't talk to him."

Nao Nao nodded: "I don't want it either."

Jing Heng couldn’t laugh or cry: “You heartless bastard!”

Momo made a face at him and said seriously: "If you bully your mother, you are a bad father. I don't want to talk to a bad father!"

Qin Xiaoxiao felt soft and kissed the little guy on the forehead: "Dad didn't bully mom. He's not a bad dad. Do you know that you have to protect dad like you protect mom?"

Momo felt that the importance of his father and mother were different, but he made up his mind to listen to his mother last night, so he reluctantly agreed: "As long as father doesn't bully mother, that's fine~"

This cuteness made Qin Xiaoxiao fall in love with him, and kissed him twice more on his face. Seeing Nao Nao looking at him intently, he picked him up and kissed him a few more times.

The little guy was a little shy and said seriously: "Mom, I am a man. Men and women do not interact with each other. You have to be reserved."

"Haha, you brat, you haven't even grown your hair, what kind of man do you think you are!" Qin Xiaoxiao laughed so hard that her branches trembled, and deliberately kissed him on the forehead again. Looking at his helpless look, he was so happy that he

He held her in his arms and rubbed her several times.

"Mom, I'm not a man. My brother won't let me kiss you, so please kiss me more." Momo seized every opportunity to win favor. He twisted his little butt and pushed his brother aside domineeringly. He opened his arms and hugged his mother and nuzzled her like a puppy.

.

"Childish!" Nao Nao looked at his brother with disgust, not wanting to be the same as him.

The silently excited general said: "If you are not naive, then don't fight with me."

Nao Nao turned his head away in frustration, feeling that his brother today was extremely annoying, and he really wanted to push him to the ground and beat him up.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble. You are an older brother and you cannot bully your younger brother." Qin Xiaoxiao tried to smooth things over, pinching the big boy's chubby face to teach him.

"Okay, I'm just teasing my brother." Momo didn't say anything harsh, and was very thoughtful in dismissing it as a joke.

Qin Xiaoxiao didn't expose him. Anyway, the two brothers didn't really hate each other because of their quarrels. When things got better, she, as a mother, would have to step aside.

Jing Heng smiled as he watched his wife and children talking and laughing. He would never get tired of watching this scene.

The Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will officially step down after the year. In the past few months of the year, Jingheng will follow him to familiarize himself with official duties and explain the several things that he has to do every year. In this way, Jingheng will still have a few more months of relaxation.

day.

Although the appointment document has not yet been issued, others saw him going to the Ministry of Household Affairs every now and then, and they still followed the right minister of the Ministry of household affairs, and gradually guessed that he would take over the position of minister.

As soon as the news came out, there were several officials who had connections and wanted to be promoted, but no one could do anything about Jing Heng.

In addition to not being a formal Jinshi, his first job after becoming an official - opening up sea trade - was done beautifully. He also had the Holy Emperor and the Protector Princess as his backers. Even if he was unwilling, no one dared to cause trouble behind his back.

Complain in private.

Jing Heng decided to take over the position of Right Minister of Household Affairs, so he would not care about the opinions of others. However, Qin Xiaoxiao accidentally attended the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet and heard some sarcastic remarks, and in front of the person who spoke, he persuaded her to divorce her husband quickly and marry another person.

Don't turn yourself into a resentful woman.

The woman cried angrily on the spot, covered her face and left.

Qin Xiaoxiao drank tea and admired the flowers like a normal person. Others did not dare to confront her, lest she would spit out words that would piss them off to death.

She had just finished dealing with matters at home that day, when the steward of the plantation came to her door with a basket of prepared dried dates and asked for an audience.

"Madam, this batch of dried dates totals 30,000 kilograms. About one kilogram of dried dates is produced for every three kilograms of fresh dates." The steward took out the account book and handed it to Qin Xiaoxiao respectfully: "This is the first year to bear fruit. Each tree produces more than 1 kilogram of fresh dates."

The jujube weight is around 200 kilograms. In two years, when we enter the high-yield period, this number should be doubled."

Qin Xiaoxiao took the account book and looked through it. Seeing that the records were very detailed, he nodded with satisfaction: "Well done, thank you for your hard work."

The manager became more and more respectful: "It's all part of the job, no hard work."

At this time, Mingyue walked in with a plate of cleaned dried dates. She saw that the dried dates were even in size, dark red in color, slightly wrinkled and shiny, and exuded a unique sweet smell of red dates.

Qin Xiaoxiao picked up a few and tasted them, and found that the taste and texture were similar to the dried dates trialed last year, so he said to Mingyue and others: "Try it too and tell me your opinions."

The Mingyue couple should be here, so they stepped forward to pick out a few dried dates and tasted them.

After tasting it, Mingyue was the first to say: "These dried dates are as sweet as fresh dates. They are very good as snacks. I think you can take them to the shop to try and buy them. Many people will like them."

Jing Que said in surprise: "Madam, I think these dried dates can not only be eaten alone, but can also be made into sweet soup and snacks. Please allow me to take some dried dates to the kitchen to try them out."

She had never tasted the dried dates that were trialled last year. As soon as she tasted the dried dates, she thought of using them to make sweet soups and snacks. She could only say that she was indeed a chef. When she tasted the freshness, she thought of using them to make ingredients.

This suggestion made Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes light up. Why hadn't she thought of it before?

If sweet soups and snacks with good taste can be made, then as Mingyue said, they can be sold in shops. In this way, there is no need to worry about hindering the sales of fresh dates, and there is no need to go through all the trouble of transporting them overseas.

Try your luck.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoxiao was even more excited than a frightened magpie: "Take it, take it, this basket of dried dates is not enough, I will have some more baskets brought over."

Jing Que smiled and thanked her, took a bamboo basket filled with dried dates and went into the kitchen, ready to make all the sweet soups and snacks she could think of.

Mingyue got inspiration from Jing Que's method, and eagerly said: "Madam, all herbs in the world are used as medicine, and Baobuqi's dried dates are also the same. I want to try it to see if I can find out the effectiveness of dried dates."

Qin Xiaoxiao had no reason to refuse. He waved his hand and said boldly: "Try whatever you want, the dried dates stored in the plantation are enough!"

Mingyue beamed: "Thank you madam!"

The steward on the side was secretly envious: Madam was really too indulgent to the people serving around her.

Qin Xiaoxiao is not a stingy person. The jujube trees in the plantation bear fruit smoothly and the harvest was good in the first year. This is the credit of dozens of people in the plantation.

Although none of the dried dates had been sold yet, her intuition told her that the dried dates would sell well, so she directly asked someone to bring one hundred taels of silver and asked the steward to take it back and share it with others.

After the steward left happily with the money, Qin Xiaoxiao ate several dried dates, and the more she ate, the more delicious they became. Thinking that these dried dates might bring her huge profits, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Jing Heng walked in with the twins in hand and saw her looking silly and happy in the air alone. She couldn't help but smile and said, "What are you so happy about?"

Qin Xiaoxiao came back to his senses and waved to the father and son: "Come here quickly, these are the dried dates just sent from the plantation, you can try them."

Jingheng had never eaten dried dates before. Seeing that the dried dates were in good quality, he picked one up and bit it open. When a sweet taste that was different from fresh dates filled his mouth, he couldn't help but nodded: "

tasty."

The reaction of the twins was much exaggerated, especially Mo Mo. Eating dried dates with a sweetness no worse than sugar cubes was simply more joyful than eating sugar: "Mom, this is delicious. My brother and I can eat as much as we want."

?"

Nao Nao ate the whole dried date without saying a word, and found that there were not many dates left on the plate. Before his brother could react, he calmly grabbed a few handfuls and stuffed them into his pocket. Judging from his performance, he knew that he also liked them.

.

Qin Xiaoxiao pretended not to notice, and said to the big boy who looked at her eagerly: "No, dried dates are also snacks and cannot be eaten as food, but it's okay to eat one every day."

Dried dates are made from fresh dates, so it should be okay for the two bastards to eat some every day, right?

"Hee hee, mom is so nice!" Mo Mo began to flatter her again, thinking happily that candy bars are not available every day, and it would be great to have sweet dried dates now.

However, no one expected that within half a month of continuous consumption, the two little guys started to have nosebleeds. This was something that had never happened before.
