Reborn Just To Be a Big Shot Family Freeloader

  Chapter 217 The Grounded First Emperor

  Lingzhou worried: "With his status, it's not good to owe others favors."

   Brother Monkey said with a smile: "He wants me to owe him favor, don't worry, only he owes me, and I don't owe him."

   Lingzhou is estimated to be a matter of practice, otherwise their family really has nothing to be considered a conspiracy. Besides, Brother Hao is a little unreliable in small matters, but he is not disproportionate in big matters. But no more.

   just asked: "When did the second uncle say to leave?"

Fusu replied: "It is scheduled for the beginning of August, and there are still about ten days left. This time my mother will also go, and I will stay at home. This time I go to Beijing, my parents plan to charter a boat, so it takes less time on the road and it is more convenient. ."

  Lingzhou nodded: "Second aunt can go with you, but brother Wei, didn't you say you have to go to the two government colleges first? Why didn't you go?"

Fusu smiled and said, "Mother doesn't go to the capital, it's always inconvenient for father to live alone. I can take care of the family by staying at home. In the future, my younger brothers and sisters will also be admitted to the two academies, so I will take the test together with them. at one time."

  Lingzhou also knew that the second uncle could bring his younger brothers and sisters into the capital together, but other things could be left behind, but those new crops in the experimental field could not be left behind.

   Grain production is a major event, and Li Xianzun is also very concerned about it. Not only is the county government testing planting, but Li Xianzun has also visited the experimental field on his own side several times.

Fortunately, apart from the test of the improved rice seeds that the two little sisters were doing failed to yield results, several other new varieties of crops were growing well. Harvest.

Fusu said again: "After the autumn season, Dad said to let you go to Beijing. It just happened that there was nothing to do a year ago. We plan to go to Beijing to visit our parents and come back after the New Year in Beijing. Brother Lingzhou, you will come with us. ."

This Qiuyuan is not the year of Autumn, but because this year is the 60th Christmas of the Mansion Emperor, Enke was added. Because it has only been through the autumn season for one year, not only are there fewer candidates for reference, but for the new reference candidates, only a group of strong candidates have been selected, and their competitiveness is relatively small.

  Lingzhou smiled and said, "Then let's go together, and there will be someone to take care of on the way."

  The family had lunch in the old house at noon before going home.

   After they got home, Qixun and Lingyu were worried about the crops in the field and decided to go take a look.

  The First Emperor went with his daughters.

  Although it has only been a month, the crops in the field have also changed a lot.

  The corn that is as tall as one person grows very well, and each stalk bears two or three sticks. The kind that only bears one stick is very rare.

Qixun pulled one, tore off the skin and looked at it. The corn kernels were big and plump, and after plucking one of them and tasting it, it was very sweet. Carrying it: "I cook it at home and boil it with fresh corn. It's glutinous and sweet. It's super delicious."

   The first emperor, who didn't understand farming, felt distressed: "Didn't Li Xingjian say that these are all reserved for seeds?"

Qi Xun snorted: "It's such a big piece, it doesn't matter how small it is, it's not like we have worked so hard for half a year, and we can't even taste it, right? Besides, don't I want to honor your father? Otherwise, you won't be able to taste the food grown by our family, don't you regret it? You should be the first to taste it."

  The first emperor was delighted by the dragon's heart.

   rubbed Qixun's head and said with a smile: "Dad, you have to taste the grains grown by my daughter, let's go, let's go and see how the other crops are growing."

   Qixun feels that his dragon father has been smiling a lot more recently, and he is overjoyed!

   Even the air has become sweet.

   (Air: I'm sorry, my sweetness is related to greening, not your father.)

Father and daughter three arrived in the sweet potato field. After Qixun opened a bunch of sweet potato vines, he took out a small shovel and dug out a bunch. There were five sweet potatoes in this bunch, each weighing about a pound. It took another half a month to harvest. Qixun picked another place and dug a bunch of them, which was about the same output as Shangwo.

   Qixun estimated that if it is all at this level, the yield per mu should exceed expectations, at least about 5,000 catties. Even in future generations, this yield is quite good.

  Nichihiro was worried that the seeds of these future generations might not be suitable for the soil here, but he did not expect that they would grow so well.

"Although this sweet potato is not a staple food, it also has a very high planting value. First, it can be used as a supplement to the staple food. Second, it is not only the harvest of sweet potatoes, but also the stems and leaves during the growth process. It is also an excellent livestock feed. Now almost every family feeds livestock, especially pigs, and sweet potato leaves can almost solve half of the livestock feed consumption."

   "And people can also eat it. Sweet potato leaves are also very nutritious and taste good as vegetables. After the sweet potato stems are peeled, they are fried with sweet, sour and crispy. If there is a famine, these sweet potato leaves are also food rations."

  The First Emperor took a look at the sweet potato, nodded and said, "The fans are also made of sweet potatoes?"

   Qixun smiled and said, "Those with high starch content can be used as fans. Mung beans, sweet potatoes, and potatoes are all fine. But sweet potato flour tastes better. Dad, let's go, let's go and see potatoes."

  The first emperor carried two bunches of sweet potatoes and walked on the path among the soil, with the look of an old farmer checking the growth of the crops, not to mention being down-to-earth.

   Qixun and Lingyu, who followed behind him, looked at the old father's back with a hand on his back, and smiled at each other.

   I went to the potato field, plucked a few and looked at it, and the yield was not bad.

"Dad, potatoes are more edible than sweet potatoes. The key is that they are more nutritious. We mainly eat grains in China, but in my previous life, potatoes were the staple food in most Western countries. Its output is very high. High, and potatoes are actually vegetables, we eat them today.”

   Father and daughter three walked in the field for a long time, Shi Huang looked at the splendid countryside and sighed in his heart.

   His Daqin back then, if such a high-yield grain would fall from the sky

Qi Xun and Lingyu looked at the melancholy face on Long's father's face, and looked at each other, Lingyu felt a little distressed for his father and didn't want him to think too much, and said: "Father, sweet potatoes and potatoes can be stored, I will return to you and my mother. Take some to the capital, eat some by yourself, and give some away. Say this is the new food that your son and daughter found, and send it along with the recipe. By that time, the corn should be old, dry it, and grind it into cornmeal. , it will be fine for a few months.”

  Qi Xun also said: "Yes, grind it finer, and then sieve it again. The porridge with cakes is very fragrant."

   "Yeah, what's missing in the future, what do you want to eat, just write back and ask the second brother to deliver it to you and your mother. Anyway, the second brother runs fast."

  The first emperor was disturbed by the two daughters, so he followed the words: "You guys finish all the things here earlier, go to the capital earlier, and your mother and I don't have to worry about you anymore."
