Chapter 487 The male protagonist's cannon fodder cousin (10)
In August, two unknown flowers from the Garden of Cultivation World that were carefully cultivated finally sprouted.
Xu Yin was already prepared to fail.
Who would have thought that it would take so long for these rice-sized flower seeds to germinate after being soaked for a day and sown.
Xu Yin took care of them carefully and recorded their growth status every day. She found that ten days had passed before the buds had grown to be as big as the cap of her little finger, and the green stems were so delicate that they could break with the slightest touch.
Xu Yin couldn't help rubbing her chin and thinking: How many years did it take for those adult-high flower stems and huge flower trays in the garden to grow?
Then I thought again: Time is the most valuable thing in the world of cultivation. Ten years and a hundred years can be counted with a snap of a finger. To those monks, it is just a matter of a blink of an eye and a few breaths.
Then do we still need to cultivate it?
She hesitated.
Suddenly, she thought of the spiritual dew that also came from the Baiyuan Garden. She wondered if watering them with spiritual dew would make them grow faster?
So, she chose a delicate bud that seemed to be the weakest and watered it with spiritual dew.
The rest still uses local mountain spring water.
At this time, she particularly missed the mountain spring water of Lingxu Sect.
Although the spiritual energy is very weak and far less abundant than the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual dew water, it is still extraordinary compared to ordinary mountain spring water.
I am thinking about going to Lingxu Sect next time I have a chance to recuperate, and I want to fill up all the water storage tanks in the system warehouse.
Of course, if you have the opportunity to go to Baiyuan Garden again, you will definitely want to collect more spiritual dew water.
It’s all good stuff!
Speaking of good things, she also has the fertile soil of Taoyuan Star, which is also very beneficial to plant growth.
So I took some out, and this time picked another sprout as the experimental subject. The rest still used ordinary soil.
She marked the flower seedlings watered with Linglu water as No. 1, the flower seedlings mixed with Taoyuanxing soil as No. 2, and the rest were not marked.
After that, observe every day and record regularly.
In a flash, another half month has passed.
After days of observation and recording, Xu Yin came to this conclusion based on the growth capabilities of these flower seedlings:
No. 1>No. 2>Others.
It can be seen that the spiritual dew water, which also comes from the world of cultivation, has the greatest effect on these flowers.
But the effect of Taoyuanxing soil is not bad either.
What's more, she didn't mix much, only about 10%. If she mixed more, she could even use Taoyuan Star soil for planting...
Xu Yin's ideas were wide open and she immediately started experimenting.
She put up small wooden signs with numbers 3, 4, 5, and 6 in front of the unlabeled flower seedlings.
Then, I mixed 20% Taoyuanxing soil for No. 3 flower seedlings, 50% for No. 4 flower seedlings, 70% for No. 5 flower seedlings, and replaced all No. 6 flower seedlings with Taoyuanxing soil.
Time passed quietly as she devoted herself to cultivating unknown flowers in the garden...
Suddenly, the weather turns cooler and enters the golden autumn of October.
Xu Yin's flower seedling experiment is also coming to an end.
With her unremitting efforts and adjustments, she finally integrated a set of cultivation plans that can make the flower seedlings in Baiyuan Garden grow the fastest and have the strongest stems and leaves——
Linglu water is combined with 50% Taoyuanxing soil.
If combined with all Taoyuanxing soil, the growth rate is indeed the fastest, but it also presents a problem: the leaves are too fat.
Planting flowers is different from growing vegetables. Flowers need strong stems to support them. If the flowers and leaves are too large, she is worried about them falling over later.
After experimenting with the best cultivation method, Xu Yin transplanted these flower seedlings to the boutique planting area at the top of Spice Mountain.
There are three flowers of each type, just like a small family, which looks a bit sparse.
Anyway, she knew how to cultivate it, so she soaked a handful of seeds again.
This time I picked two unknown flowers that have a subtle and elegant fragrance, but are particularly beautiful when they bloom.
They are always called unknown flowers, and no one knows who they are.
Xu Yin named them based on her impression:
The two types with strong floral fragrance are called "Auspicious" and "Ruixiang" respectively, both of which have a homophonic word for "fragrant";
The two flowers that have just been sown have an elegant fragrance and are called "Yueyin" and "Xingkui" based on their flower shapes when they are in full bloom. The petals of the former are curved like a light moon, while the stamens of the latter are as silky as the Milky Way.
After finishing all this work, the old housekeeper sent a boy to deliver a basket of seasonal fruits and a message asking her if she could go back home to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival.
It turns out that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon!
Xu Yin thought for a while and then went back!
It's time to do an inventory of the house's accounts to see if the new accountant is honest.
Knowing that the girl was coming back, the old housekeeper led the servants in the house to vigorously clean up the house.
"Sikong, you are responsible for the accounting room, so be sure to clean it!"
The boy running errands next to the old housekeeper came over to inform.
The other party nodded slightly to show that he understood.
The boy scratched his head and thought, "What a weird thing!" Why does this new accountant give people a kind of... what is that word? Yes! He is not angry but powerful! He gives people a feeling that is better than the old man who directed at them.
The servants are even scary when they are angry!
He was not even ten years old back then, and when he saw the old man going crazy for the first time, he was so frightened that he peed. But now when he faced Sikong's accountant, that feeling of being so frightened that he wanted to pee came again.
But Brother Sikong is obviously just a cashier who is too weak to shoulder the responsibility.
Weird!
…
In the Sun family in Fengcheng, the grandma came back from the street with a smile on her face.
"My son has become a scholar. Those neighbors who used to have high standards for me are now very enthusiastic when they see me. They even ask if my son is married. Bah! When my son passes the provincial examination next year, he will be the master of the civil service examination.
Who would want to marry a girl from a small family like this?"
Sun Zhiqian yawned and came out of the room, feeling weak: "Mom, brother Xiujie failed the exam and can't go to the provincial examination."
"Ah?" Sun's mother was stunned, "That means that the expenses for going to Fucheng and Rural Examination next year have not been paid yet?"
"Yes! I still owe him the debt this time, but he failed again. I can't ask him to borrow money again."
"What can we do?" Sun's mother was so anxious that she turned around.
The only source of income for the family is that Sun's father works part-time for others. Occasionally, when he meets a generous owner, he will give him a reward, but this is rare.
The money earned from part-time work, after excluding the daily expenses of the family, is not much left at all. How can I save enough to pay for the expensive exams?
In the past, to support my son's education, I would go back to my parents' home during the New Year and festivals, and buy some valuable gifts such as silks and satins given by my second brother from my parents' home. If I sell them and pawn them, I can get a lot of money.
Now that my parents are long gone and my second brother has died, where can I get money?
After much thought, I still have to contact my niece.
As long as he contacted his niece and coaxed her to change her mind, with her generosity and wealth, she would have enough money to buy a farm, not to mention the expense of her son's exams.
Grandmother's calculations clicked and she decided to take advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to go to Fengcheng again.
It can't be so unlucky, the butler is not here, right?
As long as the housekeeper is there and she can find out where her niece Shouxiao lives, she will be confident.
On the first day after losing her parents, I was the only aunt thinking about her and traveled thousands of miles to accompany her. I believe my niece will be moved.
After thinking about it, Sun Mu was moved first...
