Qing Dynasty: Pampering The Queen

Chapter 148 Thinking about it, it really seems like a lifetime ago

After seeing off the okra, Mrs. Xue hurriedly found a place where no one was around, and couldn't wait to open the red envelopes.

It was actually a ten tael silver bill, and Madam Xue was overjoyed. Mugege is really generous, it can be seen that he is really satisfied with the red fruit.

Well, I should be satisfied with Mrs. Qiu too. Otherwise, if Mrs. Qiu offends her, why would she give so much money?

But let alone, the red fruit is really delicious, sweet with a hint of sour taste, it is most suitable for people who have no appetite in summer.

After they left, Mu Jin held a tomato in his hand and looked at it. His pretty face was radiant, and under the two crescent-like slender willow eyebrows, a pair of beautiful eyes shone brightly. People dare not look directly.

Adzuki beans and shallots are also rare, and buckwheat is pretending to be rare.

Xiaodouzi: "Ge Ge, Ge Ge, what kind of fruit is this? It's so beautiful, I've never seen it before."

Xiao Cong glanced at him: "Didn't you hear what Madam Xue said? It's also a good thing from the West, as long as you haven't seen it before! Ge Ge, what's the name of this fruit?"

Mu Jin smiled, shook her head and said, "This is from the West, and it doesn't even have a name in Qing Dynasty!"

Xiaodouzi and Xiaocong said "oh", and Xiaodouzi immediately flattered: "In that case, Gege will give it a name. It is an honor for Gege to name it."

"exactly!"

Several people laughed. Mu Jin also smiled.

At the beginning of last year, she accidentally got tomato seeds, and she planted them carefully in spring as if she had found a treasure.

However, it was so easy to bloom, bear fruit, and mature, but she was greatly disappointed.

The fruit is indeed a tomato, but the fruit is very small, smaller than a chicken egg, and the red color is not pure enough after ripening, with a little orange, and the taste is not good.

When you take a bite, you don't have that smooth, plump, juicy, sweet and sour taste. It's slightly hard and stiff, and the flesh is thin, with no fragrance, sour, and occasionally a bit astringent.

It was only at that time that Mu Jin suddenly realized, no wonder even if there were these tomato seeds, the planting industry did not develop.

Dare to say that this tomato doesn't taste like the tomato she's familiar with at all, it's no wonder anyone likes it.

So, relying on the water of the spiritual spring, Mu Jin immediately bred and replanted. In the second half of last year, two crops were grown in a row. With hot springs, winter is not a problem.

The tomato fruit that was bred and re-cultivated last winter has been greatly improved. It is bigger, the flesh is plump, thick and delicate, with a hint of fragrance, but the raw taste is still not satisfactory.

However, it is very suitable for cooking, such as tomato eggs, tomato loofah soup, tomato stewed lamb, green pepper tomato braised chicken nuggets, etc.

This year, she is preparing to do a big job. After getting the most perfect tomato fruit, she will let that profiteer Wei Chu sell it at a low-key but high price to open up the market. Unexpectedly, she was forced to leave just after it bloomed. Back to the fourth master's mansion.

Think about it, it really seems like a lifetime away!

Even though Mu Jin had always been a big-hearted person, she couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

What is unpredictable? This is it!

There were only six tomatoes, and Mu Jin didn't want to touch them, so she told the buckwheat to put them away like a treasure, and wait for the fourth master to come back and show it to the fourth master.

How should I put it, she already has an idea in her mind.
