After Crossing, and Husband Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies To Farm

   Chapter 291 The Flood

"I came here this time mainly for the sweet potatoes from Zhuangzi, so I have to wait until the sweet potatoes are cooked before leaving." up.

   Zhou Ying didn't talk any more after hearing it, she also picked up chopsticks and ate.

  After dinner, Zhou Ying made a pot of Longjing for them.

  After two cups of tea, Zhou Huaiming asked, "I heard that nearly 100 mu of sweet potatoes are also planted in the village, right?"

   "Yes, then everyone planted some more. It should be about 150 acres." Zhou Ying replied.

   "That's good, more is more, otherwise Daming is afraid that the wind will blow." Zhou Huaiming said with a heavy face.

   "What, what happened?"

   "There have been floods in several prefectures in the south, and the grains for the second season have also failed. So whether Daming can stabilize or not, this sweet potato is very important."

"When did this happen?"

   "Just two days ago, do you still remember the passing rain the other day? I also ran over there to join in the fun."

   "So it is." Zhou Ying felt a little heavy after hearing this. If it's just the disaster in the north, there is still some room for it. After all, most people have moved south.

   You guys have been through a bit of hardship and tiredness, but you can still get through it.

   But there was another flood in the south, and people were afraid that they were really going to despair.

   Zhou Huaiming saw this and said: "Don't say this, so as not to cause panic."

"clear."

   "Then take a rest, Uncle Liu and I, go to Tian Jingzhong." Zhou Huaiming nodded.

   Zhou Ying knew that they were on business as soon as she heard it, so she got up and sent them out.

  Then plugged in the door, went back to the space, took out a lot of pumpkins and taro, and started slicing them with mental power, drying them in the drying area.

  If the situation is more severe, they will not dare to eat steamed bread and rice.

   Then red beans, soybeans, mung beans, lentils, and black beans are used, roasted at low temperature, and ground into ready-to-eat brew.

   Then made some black sesame paste.

  In the evening, after Gu Chengrui came back, Zhou Ying told him the news of the flood in the south and said with emotion: "This Daming is really a disaster."

   "It's also normal. Without high-yielding seeds, it is inevitable that there will be no grain reserves.

   Now I am afraid that someone will take the opportunity to rebel, that is miserable. "Gu Chengrui nodded.

   then said: "By the way, when I first came back, I heard that the water level of the well at the entrance of the village had dropped."

   "So many people use it, so the supply is good. Fortunately, the sweet potato is about to ripen. Once the sweet potato is cooked, the water consumption is small."

"I hope I can hold on until it rains or snows, otherwise I really have to go deep into the mountains to find water sources." Gu Chengrui paused and said, "By the way, it's August 15th, you can make ten jins of moon cakes when you have time. ."

   "Forget the moon cakes, it's not suitable because it costs oil and noodles. I'll make some chestnut cakes, and then kill a sheep.

   When the time comes, the family will send two catties of mutton and one catty of chestnut cake. "

   "It's okay, after all, that's what it means, and the old mansion will give you two more wolf skins."

  After dinner, the two entered the space. Gu Chengrui looked at what she had prepared and smiled, after feeding the cattle and sheep.

   asked her to take out some wheat bran, peanut oil cakes, and a lot of dried sweet potato vines, and added some dried dandelions.

   Then in proportion, mix together and make a powder.

   Although this hybrid noodles look no different from the outside, at least it doesn't irritate the throat and is healthy.

   As for Zhou Ying, she made the chestnut cake, but it was not the ten kilograms that Gu Chengrui said, but fifty kilograms, and all of them were made with a moon cake grinder.
