She stared at Gu Youyi in confusion, trying to discern the true nature of the child in front of her.
Is it rebirth after death?
Or is the body possessed by some lonely ghost?
Ms. Xie is not a child and will not be easily coaxed by a few words.
Gu Youyi found that her own mother's eyes were even more terrifying.
She shrank instinctively.
But, soon, Gu Youyi stiffened her neck again: What are you afraid of! This is my mother! Dear!
He is the person who loves me the most, loves me the most, and tolerates me the most.
No matter what I become, she will always treat me the same!
A confident person can become tough again in the shortest possible time even if he is frightened.
"Aniang! Why are you looking at me like this?"
"...I hate eating wheat cakes the most, but Aweng said that a porridge and a meal are hard-earned."
"Also, although my name is Li Nu, I don't like cats because when I was three years old, I was scared by a wild cat that appeared out of nowhere!"
Gu Youyi was acting coquettishly and waving her fingers while telling the "little secret" between herself and her mother-in-law.
Sure enough, as Gu Youyi said each sentence, Xie's expression softened a little.
These are indeed things that only I and my daughter know.
If there really are ghosts out there, we may not know about them.
Therefore, there is no doubt that the person in front of me is indeed his daughter.
But, rebirth——
It was so absurd and bizarre that Xie still couldn't believe it easily.
Sensing the change in Xie's eyes, Gu Youyi hurriedly started talking about "foreknowledge"——
"It is now the twelfth year of Yuanshou, the autumn of the thirteenth year of Yuanshou. Emperor Yuwen Quan of the Northern Dynasty passed away, and his eldest son Yuwen Cong came to the throne, with the reign name Zhenxing."
"In the fourth year of Zhenxing, Yu Wencong conferred the title of Great General Yu Wenhuan as the Prime Minister of Otsuka."
"Yu Wenhuan seized power and wanted to depose Yu Wen Cong and establish himself as emperor. Yu Wensong and his son raised an army..."
In her previous life, even though Gu Youyi was trapped in her inner house, she didn't really like to inquire about what was going on in the court.
But after all, she is the daughter of the Gu family, and she is in the center of power. Many things are simply unavoidable.
Not to mention, my cousin at home is a genius girl who is so intelligent that she is almost a demon.
Even if she didn't inquire deliberately, Gu Youyi had heard about many affairs in the court.
She told Mr. Xie one by one about these major events.
Mrs. Xie was shocked at first, then horrified, and then secretly happy——
She can be sure that her daughter is indeed reborn.
Because the change of emperor and the appointment of Otsuka Zai were beyond the imagination of a boudoir girl like her.
She must have experienced this, so she can speak clearly and accurately.
"My son has such an adventure!"
Mrs. Xie hugged Gu Youyi.
Although she had been restraining herself, in her heart, Mrs. Xie had always wanted to compete with her eldest son.
The eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Xiao, is a noble daughter of the royal family, and she is the daughter of the Xie family from a thousand-year-old family.
In the family world, Mr. Xie felt that he was not inferior to the self-proclaimed Xiao family, and even surpassed him.
The Xiao family descended from the Gu family and gave birth to two sons and two daughters with Gu Yi, while the Xie family gave birth to three sons and one daughter.
In terms of the number of children, Mrs. Xie feels that she should be slightly better than Mrs. Xiao.
As for the quality of children——
Although Ms. Xie didn't want to admit it, she had to say that the four children of the eldest son were all very smart and outstanding.
The only shortcoming is probably that Gu Qing is too ugly!
His youngest daughter Gu Youyi is much better than Gu Qing, at least not as ugly as her.
However, Mrs. Xie later discovered that everyone in the Gu family, from the patriarch Gu Heng to the third generation, had special pity and respect for Gu Qing.
As for Gu Qing, apart from her appearance, she is excellent in every other aspect.
Her reading talent is extremely high.
He was known as a child prodigy at a young age.
In terms of intelligence and intelligence, Gu Youyi is not as good as Gu Qing!
Xie:……
Although the younger daughter is not smart enough and does not like to study, she is protected by God.
There is a chance to be reborn after death!
Such a great opportunity cannot come to those who are not lucky!
This alone can make up for my daughter's shortcomings of being stupid.
And Yu Wenheng!
He was actually the future emperor, who unified the north and the south, conquered all barbarians, and became a sage king whose name will remain in history.
Now, my daughter has taken the lead and has a childhood sweetheart relationship with Yu Wenheng, so in the future——
Of course, Ms. Xie is not a child, she also has a minimum IQ.
She knows that even the same person experiencing the same event may change due to certain changes.
In the previous life that my daughter experienced, there should be various reasons for Yu Wenheng's success.
For example, Gu Qing's assistance and the full support of the entire Gu family.
However, Gu Qing is the daughter of the Gu family, and so is Li Nu.
In the previous life, the Gu family was able to support Yu Wenheng for Gu Qing, so in this life, she can also support Yu Wenheng for Li Nu!
It makes no sense that the daughter of the eldest daughter is the treasure, and the daughter of the second daughter is the spoiled child.
Mrs. Xie hugged Gu Youyi with all her strength, and endless pride suddenly arose in her heart.
…
Gu Qingcheng sent a small team to Jiaozhou to search for Zhancheng rice and other primitive rice species in the wild.
Lingnan is really rich in species.
In addition to rice seeds, there are other crops.
Root plants such as taro can also be eaten as staple food.
There is also sugar cane, which can be used to make sugar.
Sugar, in an era when medical treatment was scarce, could be used as a war necessity.
"Sugar cane? Yes! It's sugar cane!"
Gu Qingcheng also mastered top-level biotechnology before he thought of this crop that he had ignored.
The climate in Lingnan is very suitable for growing sugar cane.
In this time and space, people who want to obtain the "sweet" taste mostly squeeze juice from fruits such as honey and sugar cane.
For example, the most popular juice at the moment is sugarcane juice.
There is only this preliminary processed "sugar water", no "sugar"!
In this day and age, if you want to make braised pork, there is no sugar.
Gu Qingcheng had so many things to think about that she actually forgot about sugar (sugar cane).
Of course, even if Gu Qingcheng doesn't "invent", in a few decades, smart working people will slowly make sugar.
However, that requires a process and is only on a local scale.
Gu Qingcheng can't wait, and the candy is so good!
It not only enriches people's taste, but also forms an industrial chain and earns huge profits.
Moreover, as a time travel trivia, sugar can also be made into alcohol!
Alcohol is one of the most deadly weapons in ancient times.
Looking at countless time-traveling online novels, whether it is a male protagonist or a female protagonist who travels to ancient times, they all have to do things like soap, glass, and alcohol.
For alcohol, the most direct method, and also the most common method used by time travellers, is to use existing alcohol to distill and purify it.
Gu Qingcheng, an ancient aborigine, said:...distilled alcohol?
ha!
What a joke!
Don’t you know that wine in ancient times was made from grain?
In ancient times, food was more important than anything else!
Emperors of all dynasties have issued "alcohol bans" in order to prevent the powerful from wasting food for making wine.
If all the grain is used to make wine, how can the people survive?
If the people can no longer survive, they will naturally rebel!
Therefore, in ancient times, for example, a time traveler, even a real nobleman, could not just make wine if he wanted to, and make alcohol if he wanted to use wine!
Sugar cane, not food!
In addition, Lingnan has a vast land, sparsely populated areas, and a warm climate, which is suitable for large-scale sugarcane cultivation.
While Gu Qingcheng continued to urge Dr. Zhang and others to develop medicines, he also sent people to explore the surrounding areas where sugar cane was planted.
This place is not just limited to Luozhou.
After three years of operation, Gu's has established a firm foothold in Luozhou.
It cannot be said that the entire Luozhou has become the headquarters of the Gu family, but it is not much worse.
The Gu family's influence in Luozhou is increasing day by day, and according to the plan of taking care of Qingcheng, the Gu family should also expand to the surrounding areas.
Enclosing land and building sugar cane plantations is only the first step!
Gu Qingcheng sent out several teams of troops and began to carry out activities in several surrounding states and counties.
Not to mention, there are really wild sugar cane forests in the mountains of Lingnan.
The location is right at the junction of Luozhou and Yuezhou!
"I'll go take a look too!"
With a thought in mind, Gu Qingcheng led his female soldiers, ordered 200 Gu family soldiers, brought sulfur, mint, etc. to drive away snakes, insects, rats and ants, and headed to the primitive wild sugar cane forest together.
"It's indeed sugar cane!" It's still the original seedling.
I just don’t know if this untamed seedling is as sweet as real sugar cane!
Gu Qingcheng rode a horse and circled around the sugar cane forest, thinking silently.
"Yes or no, you will know once you try it!"
Gu Qingcheng is a person with top-level biotechnology, and also has the habit of "experimenting".
She ordered people to cut some sugar cane and then boil it according to the "ancient method".
In the dense mountain forest, Gu Qingcheng's men and horses set up camp.
In the temporary camp, fires and cauldrons were set up.
Cook and cook, stir and stir, boil and boil...
After a series of simple and rough procedures, the sugar cane water turns into syrup, and then after condensation, cooling and other processes, the simplest version of brown sugar cubes is produced.
"This is brown sugar!"
Gu Qingcheng took the brownish-red lump object that didn't look good and smelled it. Sure enough, it had that "familiar" smell.
Her memories and emotions in the novel world have been erased, but "common sense" will remain.
In Gu Qingcheng's "common sense", there is the understanding of brown sugar and white sugar.
After making brown sugar, you can also purify the brown sugar to obtain more refined, white sugar, or rock sugar.
Gu Qingcheng is also very familiar with the process of purifying brown sugar.
However, this is not Gu's Uburg after all. If you want to conduct further "experiments", you still have to go home.
Of course, before leaving, Gu Qingcheng would brand this sugarcane forest as "Gu's".
The barren mountains and wastelands in the wild were worthless at all. Gu Qingcheng directly sent people to contact the Yuezhou Governor's Office, and spent less than a hundred dollars to buy all the huge mountains and forests.
but--
Just as the members of the Gu family were vigorously waving their sickles and harvesting wild sugar cane, there was a rustling sound in the forest.
Gu Qingcheng instantly became alert. Is there some kind of wild beast?
She immediately ordered preparations for war, and all the little girl soldiers also took up arms.
Then, a group of young men dressed in national costumes walked out of the jungle, and the leader was actually a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old...
