Also, she had seen the portrait. She could only give a disdainful ‘tsk’ in response. This was even more abstract than the clay figurine that the owner of the clay figurine had made for her during the Mid-Autumn Festival. She really did not understand how they could see the slightest resemblance to her.

Jian Qingqing was busy for a while, and after a while, there would be a period of free time. When she had nothing to do, she planned to go to the Emperor to make her presence known. He was the Biggest Boss, so she had to please him from time to time.

When the Emperor saw her, he was very happy. He laughed and asked, “What has Qingqing been up to recently? Did you come up with some food again?”

Ever since Jian Qingqing made a small cake in the Imperial Kitchen, Princess Anning fell in love with the taste. She even gave it to the Empress and the Emperor to eat. The Emperor and Empress were full of praise for it.

The Empress asked gently, “I wonder what other delicious food Qingqing can make? I think your cooking is not worse than the Imperial chefs cooking.”

Jian Qingqing laughed. “You’re overpraising me, Your Majesty. I’m just a little bit of a cheater. How can I compare to those imperial chefs who have been working for decades? However, I can make some food that the palace doesn’t have. There are also some ingredients that the palace doesn’t have, but I can’t bring them in.”

Hearing this, the Emperor casually replied, “What’s so difficult about it? in the future, I won’t let anyone stop you. You can bring it in whenever you want.”

From then on, Jian Qingqing would bring in some food from time to time, mainly to feed Princess Anning, but the Emperor and Empress must also have some.

Hearing this, Jian Qingqing smiled. “I did make some snacks. It’s called Xue

Mei Niang. You can try it. It tastes good.”

As she spoke, she handed the food box to Eunuch Zhong. Anything that entered the Emperor’s mouth had to be inspected.

The Emperor laughed. “Theres nothing that’s bad about your cooking. Why? I heard that you want to buy some land?”

Jian Qingqing did not expect the Emperor to ask about this. She did not deliberately hide the fact that she wanted to buy a farm, so many people in the manor knew about it. There must be many people who were the emperor’s people in between, so it was not strange that he knew.

However, since the Emperor had mentioned it, if Jian Qingqing didn’t know what to do, it would be a waste of her efforts to please the Emperor.

“I’ve thought about it,” she said in a worried tone. “I want to use a plot of land that can be separated to plant rice and wheat from different areas, and then pollinate them. This way, we can get better seeds.”

The Emperor was puzzled,”what do you mean?” How can we get good seeds like this?”

As a result, Jian Qingqing immediately explained to the Emperor the crossbreeding theory of Grandpa Yuan, the Father of hybrid rice. She said with confidence, “Your Majesty, do you know that seeds are different in different places?

The Emperor was puzzled, “Really? Aren’t they all food?”

Jian Qingqing sighed and explained, “For example, in dry areas, the crops there are more resistant to drought, but the yield will be lower. In areas with better weather, although the yield is higher, the crops are not as resistant to drought. If a drought suddenly occurs in that area one year, those crops will die faster than in dry areas.”

The Emperor thought of the drought two years ago, which had put their Great Wei into a huge predicament. He had even issued two self-admonishments, but fortunately, they had passed through it safely..
