The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm: Chapter 1038 The lazy and bad sister-in-law of a blessed girl from the farm 33

  Chapter 1038 The Lazy and Bad Sister-in-Law of the Blessed Nongmen (33)

   "Meng Jin—"

   "Meng Jin—"

  While the young couple were talking, Li Zheng's angry voice sounded behind them.

  Xu Yin then turned her head to look, the man in official uniform who was accompanying her, could it be the new county magistrate?

  She guessed correctly, the person who came was Chen Zhanpeng who filled the vacancy of Qinghe county magistrate.

  He is a member of the Four Princes faction.

The memorial presented by Zhou Zhihai made His Majesty's Sacred Heart very happy, and he was immediately transferred to Pingzhou Prefecture, which is not far from the capital and occupies a favorable terrain for both offense and defense. forage.

The other princes saw that Zhou Zhihai was favored by His Majesty, and they were racking their brains to win him over. Only the fourth prince sent someone to investigate Zhou Zhihai carefully, and found that the so-called fertilization method that can increase the yield per mu by more than a stone was not Zhou Zhihai at all. It was summed up by investigating the farming conditions of the farmers within the jurisdiction, but it was learned from a small mountain village called Dawa Village.

  The fourth prince immediately used his connections to transfer Chen Zhanpeng to Qinghe County.

  As soon as Chen Zhanpeng took office, he came to Dawa Village for inspection.

   Sure enough, Dawa Village was the first to use the new fertilization method.

  Other villages in Qinghe County have learned to use this method one after another, and Dawa Village has already eaten new grains that have increased production.

   After some more inquiries, it was discovered that the source of this method came from the hands of a peasant woman who could not read a single word.

   This caused Chen Zhanpeng a lot of headaches. The fourth prince asked him to win over the other party, but the other party was not a man, but a peasant woman. This...

Li Zheng didn't know that the county magistrate Chen was distressed, so he warmly introduced the county magistrate to Meng Jin and his wife, and finally asked: "The doctor of the state government said that Meng Jin's leg is fine? Now, Meng Jin's daughter-in-law, can you rest assured? I listen Dawang said, Meng Jin came back with a pack of lotus root festivals, did she intend to plant them in the pond?"

  Magistrate Chen was surprised and asked, "Ou Festival? But the root of the lotus?"

  Xu Yin: "Master, yes!"

   County magistrate Chen was shocked.

   I didn’t expect that in a small place like the countryside, there would be some people who bought lotus roots all the way from the state capital to plant them in order to appreciate the lotus. They were still peasant women who could not read a single word.

  It seems that this peasant woman is really unusual, no wonder she can figure out a way to increase the yield of the field.

  Lizheng is more concerned about whether he can grow live. After all, he has never heard of people growing lotus roots in the local area before.

"It should be possible." Xu Yin moved out the rhetoric she had thought up a long time ago, "There are people in the state capital who are pretty good-looking. We thought that since the state capital can grow labor, we might be able to do it here. How can we do it here? It's not another kind of full stomach!"

   "Is the lotus root still full?"

   County magistrate Chen and Li Zheng spoke in unison.

   "..."

  Xu Yin's innocent face: "Can't it? The woman saw that the taste of this lotus root is a bit like taro when cooked, tender and crisp, and old powder. Can it be used as a staple food after drying and grinding into powder?"

   "..."

   Can you still infer this?

   "I wonder if I will have the honor to taste the taste of this fresh lotus root?"

  Xu Yin: "..."

  It’s only fifty catties in total, and my sister kept it for planting in spring.

   "If it is true as your husband and wife said, fresh lotus root can be used as a vegetable, and dried and ground powder can be used as food, then I will send people to the state capital to buy a large number of lotus root seeds, and donate them to the two for planting."

   "..."

  Xu Yin instantly felt the pain of throwing a stone at her instep.

  No one in the state capital sells lotus root seeds.

Inevitably, Mrs. Liu's Seventh Lady came to her door to settle accounts with her, and quickly explained: "My lord, I didn't buy the lotus root seeds of the women, but I did a little favor for a member of the state capital, and he gave it to my family. If you want to buy in bulk The folk woman thinks it is still necessary to go to the south of the Yangtze River. The south of the Yangtze River is rich in water chestnuts and twig mushrooms. If adults are interested, you can also bring some seeds back and let the folk women plant them together."

   "..."

  Chen County Magistrate inexplicably felt that he was a bit aggrieved as a county magistrate, why was he led away by the nose by a peasant woman?

  However, he kept in mind the order of the fourth prince. Now that he has a good opportunity to win over the other party, why hesitate? readily agreed.

  Xu Yin asked Comrade Xiaojin to take them home first, and she brought up some fish and shrimp.

   You can’t just serve the county magistrate with lotus root, right?

  Chen county magistrate had a farm dish at Xu Yin's house, with lotus root as the main character and river fresh food as decoration, and immediately said that he would send people to Jiangnan to purchase lotus root seeds when he returned home, and give them to Xu Yin and his wife for planting.

   But he has a condition: after the lotus root is ripe and ground into powder, can you give him some? And teach him how to make lotus root noodles?

  Xu Yin readily agreed to this small request from Chen, the sponsor, and the county magistrate who delivered it to her door: "Of course."

  In this way, Xu Yin developed the twenty-acre lake pond into an ecological lotus pond—

  Fish and shrimp are raised in relatively deep waters in the center of the lake;

   Plant lotus root, lotus root, water chestnut, and citrus mushroom in the shallow water area around   ;

  The wetland on the shore is divided into several large blocks, and rice, corn, taro, and wild rice are planted respectively;

  Beside the embankment of the lake, build a four-corner gazebo and a fishing platform;

  Wild flowers and weeds such as reeds, calamus, wormwood, and canna are still preserved. The neat beauty of artificial cultivation and the wild beauty of natural scenery complement each other, forming a picturesque picture of the idyllic lotus pond.

  Cui Mengjin inscribed a few words in Lizheng in his spare time, sat in the south hall, which was like a tool room, carved, polished, and finally painted, and made a plaque for Diaoyutai.

Xu Yin thought he had thought of a good name, but after a closer look—"Qu Yun Feng He", the corners of her lips twitched. Fortunately, it wasn't called "Qu Yuan Feng He", otherwise she would have suspected that this was the predecessor of West Lake .

  In the spring of the next year, the lotus leaves in the lotus pond are filled with fields, and the lake water is green and clear.

  Newly born ducklings, led by their mother ducks, swim freely on the lake, and from time to time bow their heads to take a bite of small fish and shrimp.

  Lizheng is more concerned about her family's lotus root planting than Xu Yin, and visits her lotus pond every once in a while.

  Seeing the big green and fresh lotus leaves stretching on the lake, he was relieved: "It seems to have survived!"

  He was really sweating.

  Meng Jin and his wife are heartless, the county magistrate sent someone to buy lotus root seeds from Jiangnan as a gift to them, and they really accepted it without paying, and they were not afraid that they would not grow.

  How can the gift of the county magistrate be so easy to receive, if one does not come out, it will be over?

   Not only Meng Jin and his wife will be held accountable, but the entire Dawa Village will suffer.

   Fortunately, it was planted!

  Lizheng stroked his chest, which had been suffocated for several days, and let out a long breath of foul air.

   "Meng Jin's daughter-in-law..."

  Just as she wanted to persuade her not to act so recklessly in the future, and to leave a way out for herself in everything, Xu Yin said: "Li Zheng, take this basket of horseshoes home to eat."

  Li was subconsciously taking the basket she handed over, and looked down: "Hey, where did you dig your horseshoe? It's so big!"

   "I didn't dig it in the wild, I planted it myself."

  When cleaning the lake and pond last year, several litters of wild horseshoes were found. While Comrade Xiaojin was not paying attention, they were replaced with Lipu horseshoes from the system warehouse.
