The people in Linjiazhuang looked around curiously, but they did not dare to step forward because they had already recognized Xiao Chong's identity.
With Xiao Chong's talent and appearance, it is impossible for anyone who has met him to forget him, and Linjiazhuang's is no exception.
Some people who didn't have a chance to see Xiao Ming's mansion last time went to sea and asked others about the situation of Xiao Ming's mansion.
Others replied to him: "Xiao Mingfu is the most handsome man in the Tang Dynasty. You can recognize the most handsome man when you see him."
The concept of "the best" is a bit broad! But when they saw Xiao Chong in person, they understood what the real "best" was, without adding "one". It was really easy to recognize.
After entering the yard, Lin Wanwan hugged Xiao Qingyu and comforted her for a long time. Xiao Qingyu stopped crying and lay on her shoulders, hugging her neck tightly, for fear that she would leave again, hiccupping and mumbling.
Saying: "Mother is not allowed to leave again."
This little pitiful look made Lin Wanwan feel heartbroken.
After Xiao Qingyu's mood stabilized, Lin Wanwan remembered to entertain Xiao Chong and gave him an apologetic smile: "Cousin, I'm kidding, let's have a drink of water first."
Xiao Chong said humbly: "It's my fault. If it weren't for my business, my niece wouldn't have to stay alone in the village and be afraid."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand towards Shuqi, who immediately handed over a small jade box. Xiao Chong handed over the jade box directly and smiled at Xiao Qingyu: "Xiao Yu'er, I am your cousin. Come, let me play with this thing."
, there’s sugar in it.”
Xiao Qingyu turned her head and ignored him, looking very arrogant.
Xiao Chong, who has been beautiful since childhood, this is the first time that the same young woman has been slapped on the back of the head twice, and he can't help but smile bitterly.
Lin Wanwan looked at the jade box and couldn't help but said: "It's such a big piece of jade, the color is so beautiful. How could such a priceless jade be hollowed out to make a box? It would be such a waste of natural resources."
Xiao Chong said casually: "Although it is hollowed out, it reduces the value, but it is useful and beautiful. Let's give it to Xiao Yu'er as a meeting gift."
Lin Wanwan took it casually and said with a smile: "Then I will thank my cousin on Xiao Yu'er's behalf."
As expected, the family was rich and powerful, and the casual greeting gift was such a top-grade jadeite. Is Xiao Chong, the county magistrate, just for fun? The county magistrate of the Tang Dynasty only earned a few wages!
Ahem, no, no, no matter how little money you have, you will still have great power. If you have both money and power, that is probably what the powerful families want.
However, these noble families that have been passed down from ancient times to the present will not be rich for long. When Li Shimin's daughter-in-law comes to power, they will be used to sacrifice the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty.
Not long after chatting, several people came to the field.
Digging sweet potatoes is actually a technical job. If you don't dig well, the sweet potatoes will be broken.
In order to show off her skills today, Lin Wanwan watched a lot of sweet potato digging videos in modern times, and now she has to start practicing.
She put Xiao Qingyu aside and told her to stay away and play.
Xiao Qingyu was held in Lin Wanwan's arms for so long, and all her little emotions were soothed. At this time, she returned to the state of a caring little cotton-padded jacket, looking at her mother obediently.
Lin Wanwan was surrounded by people, including Kunlun, Xiao Chong and people from the Lin clan.
Just listen to her say: "When digging sweet potatoes, you must first push the sweet potato vines aside, and then dig out the soil on the surface. Be gentle and be careful not to damage the sweet potatoes. Oops!"
Just as she was talking, Lin Wanwan dug up the sweet potatoes in full view of everyone.
Lin Wanwan was embarrassed, especially when she looked up and saw the smile in Xiao Chong's eyes. She was even more embarrassed. She hadn't finished bragging yet!
She stopped explaining and dug into the soil quickly. After digging several times, she dug out all the sweet potatoes.
There are several huge oval-shaped purple-red fruits hanging on one plant, which may weigh three or four kilograms (a pound of Tang Dynasty is 16 taels)! There are so many on one plant, but what about this piece of land?!
Everyone was excited, another highly productive baby!
Chief Lin knelt down and cried bitterly: "God bless our Lin clan! Ancestors, look at this, this is another treasure that our Lin clan's Wanniang brought to the clan! It can survive!"
The people of the Lin family went crazy. They pushed Lin Wanwan aside and started digging for themselves. They didn't dare to let Wan Niang, who was raised in Fugui Township, touch this treasure anymore. Look at her digging, and every one of them was half broken.
of meat.
Xiao Chong looked amused and sighed at the same time. He couldn't help but softly said: "People's livelihood is still too difficult."
Lin Wanwan shrugged and said, "That's not true."
In the evening, Lin Wanwan cooked a large pot of sweet potatoes and shared two of them from house to house to taste. Xiao Chong naturally got one too.
"Well, it's so sweet. This sweet potato has a lot of sugar. It's a pity that it can't be used as a staple food." Xiao Chong commented after taking a bite.
Lin Wanwan said: "It's not bad as a side dish, it's better than going hungry. But this year we only planted one acre. Even counting my cousin Meng Bo's house, it's only two acres. It's mainly used for planting. I'll wait for more next year.
I also want to teach you how to make sweet potato vermicelli. Let me tell you, it’s delicious! Much better than rice noodles!”
After Xiao Chong swallowed the food in his mouth, he said, "You and Master Ling have done a lot of research on eating."
Lin Wanwan smiled: "Isn't eating one of the most important things in life? Of course you have to study it carefully! Cousin, you have just recovered from illness and are not suitable for big fish and meat. Come to my house in a few days and I will cook a table for you.
Delicious food you’ve never tasted before!”
Xiao Chong stretched his waist and said, "It's settled, I'm waiting for your delicious food."
For Xiao Chong and Lin Wanwan, sweet potatoes are too sweet to be used as a staple food, but for the Lin clan who cannot eat sweets even once throughout the year, sweet potatoes are so delicious that they are so delicious!
It's too sweet and it's not good to eat too much. How can they have the chance to eat too much sugar?
Just these two have to be divided among the whole family, which is not enough for one bite.
Lin Mengjin and others recalled that when Lin Wanwan asked everyone to plant sweet potatoes together, they only saw it as a joke. Only Lin Mengbo's family listened.
Now it seems that Lin Mengbo is the smartest, and the whole clan is jealous.
This year, Lin Mengbo’s family was able to survive on sweet potatoes alone, and Xiao Ming’s government wanted to buy from them and promote them throughout the county!
But in this world, there are so many people who know things after the fact, but there is no medicine for knowing ahead of time and regretting.
No matter how envious I am, I can only watch helplessly.
Xiao Chong stayed at the Qianyuan Academy that night, and tomorrow he would take rice seeds and sweet potatoes to the county government office. Carrying food overnight was quite risky.
The next day, the rice seeds (Lin Wanwan had secretly replaced them with newly purchased rice seeds from Hyundai) and sweet potatoes were loaded onto the trucks. There were three trucks in total, two loaded with cargo, and the smallest truck with passengers.
After sending Xiao Chong away, Lin Wanwan did not resume the school immediately. Instead, she coaxed little Qingyu to sleep in the cage (the little one had poor sleep because Lin Wanwan stayed out all night recently, so she was short of sleep), and returned with her guqin in her arms.
