One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 157
Speaking of the seventh son, Ji Wen, he was not really interested in Nong Sang when he hung around Zhuangzi before.It was the atmosphere in the capital that made him breathless and he was squeezed out everywhere.He seldom goes out of the house on weekdays, and suffers as soon as he leaves the house.

Either being hit by a horse, or being washed by a shrew.

Either be surrounded by a group of children and sing, calling him a tyrant, he should be boned and fleshed, and he should die to apologize or something.

Later, he didn't like to go out.

Afterwards, under the guidance of his mother Jiang Shi, he was able to learn to read and understand, and he knew how to find answers in books when he encountered doubts.Soon, he began to understand his family's situation and it was unbearable, so he hid in Zhuangzi to escape reality.

However, it was too boring to stay in Zhuangzi alone, so I couldn't help but take a walk in the countryside.This wandering brought him into contact with the farmers and gradually gained a deep understanding of Nongsang.

What kind of weather caused the crops to decrease, and what kind of pests caused the crops in their own fields to fail.

The lack of harvest means that the family members far away in the capital have no food or drink, and the nephews are waiting to be fed, which is extremely pitiful.He was very anxious, and while looking up the method in the book, he went to the farm to find an experienced old farmer for advice.

Gradually, he became interested in knowledge such as improving soil and increasing crop production.Up to now, he knows how to plant better than farmers, and whenever there is a problem with the farm of any family in the mansion, he will come to him for advice.

Therefore, the Hou Mansion may not have much money, but it is never short of food.

As the saying goes, behind closed doors, the market is full of cattle and sheep.As for boy servants forming an army, maybe there used to be, but not now.In the past, there were five thousand soldiers in the government, and there were groups of servants and servants.Now there are only five hundred government soldiers left, including guards and servants.

Under the supervision of the royal family, the manpower and financial resources of the Hou Mansion are not as good as before.

Forget it, ignore the glories of the past.

In short, the Hou Mansion stockpiled food in various Zhuangzi, firstly to prevent disasters; secondly, to prevent someone from the imperial court from seizing the food and grass with hidden hands.In such a situation, granaries in various parts of the Hou Mansion immediately opened to transport grain to the front of the battle.

Of course, just relying on the little food from the Hou Mansion is a drop in the bucket, and it won't be worth the trouble, but it's better than nothing.

Speaking of which, Seventh Young Master and Wuxi are well-known in the rural farms. Villagers from all over the country send food to Beijing every year, and then turn to the Zhuangzi where they live for an annual meeting to exchange experiences.

"Ji Wen said that there are a few villages that grow wild peppers that are exceptionally good, but the yield is high, and they can't be sold in the market." Being monopolized by the royal family, ordinary people are not allowed to sell them. Lan Ji is very helpless. The wild pepper was ground into powder, thinking about going to Dantai Mountain someday to ask the princess if it would be useful.

Otherwise, the output will increase every year, and we will have to find a place to store it..."

If things go on like this, there is no way out, and my own people can't finish it.Instead of wasting the land and the space of the granary, Qi Gongzi and his wife discussed whether to stop planting first and change to other species.

"Oh?" Paprika?Yuan Zhao came to be interested, and Wu Xi was worthy of being the person next to her. "Grind it into powder and pack it. When my father and third brother come back, let them take it to the army. In winter, it can keep the cold and warm the stomach."

It can also be used to spray when encountering enemies to make their eyes hot.

Of course, this move must be aimed at the direction of the wind, otherwise it would be bad to make one's own people hot.In addition, she not only has chili powder, there are so many herbs on Dantai Mountain, it is better to make the best use of them than to let them fend for themselves.

Over the years, she has collected a lot of herbal powders, and she only hopes to use them someday.

"Then, continue planting?" Lan Ji asked for her son.

"Planting!" Yuan Zhao said without hesitation, "Of course planting! Everything in the world always has its beauty. It is better to be prepared than to sharpen your gun in the face of battle."

Now that the matter of improving Nongsang was mentioned, not only wild peppers had to be planted, but she also thought of a way to improve the quality of varieties, grafting.

"grafting?"

Everyone was puzzled and looked at each other.

Therefore, Yuan Zhao gave a detailed explanation on the spot.It's not enough to just say it. I ordered someone to bring a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and draw a picture on the spot.

By the time he explained clearly, an hour had passed.

The nephews and nieces could no longer hold on, and were taken back to rest by the maids of various courtyards.The masters of the remaining courtyards are here to listen to the princess explaining the matter of farming and mulberry, as if they were listening to the scriptures.

"How does the princess know this method?" Lan Ji, who came from the big country of Nongsang, was very surprised, "It's unheard of for a concubine to be in her mother's country!"

This is too bad, the title of the mother country's agricultural and mulberry country is about to change hands!

"My concubine has never seen it before!" Zhuo Ji was equally astonished, not as calm as Lan Ji, "Princess, who taught you the prescription? Why didn't it spread?" Could it be that the princess was deceived?

"I was also very puzzled, so I asked that person the same. But the person asked me whose family I was from, and I said I was from Beiyue's family, and he ran away in fright." Yuan Zhao made up, "I was young at that time, Don’t understand anything, then forget about it.”

Since she was sensible, she was too busy, and she couldn't remember many things in her dream for a while.To be honest, she can't guarantee that she will be successful.It's a pity, there are so many fruit trees in Dantai Mountain, if she could think of it earlier, she would probably have eaten it.

In any case, if you have a way, you have to try it.Coincidentally, there are also many fruit trees in the mansion, and each courtyard can try it by itself.The topic about Nongsang ended here. Next, Yuan Zhao asked about the enrollment of his nephew and niece.

At present, the most learned mistress is ill and needs to rest.The second elder brother, Hou Shizi, is responsible for the enlightenment education of the nephews.He is Wen Kui, and he goes back home every day to have a meal, and then officially starts teaching.

Nephews and nieces sat in separate seats and listened quietly.

He gave lectures at night, and after he was on duty during the day, his sisters-in-law would urge the children to finish their homework, and they would check when he returned home at night.

The children's education was settled, and Yuan Zhao asked if the elders were healthy, only to learn that the wives of each courtyard had their own prescriptions for recuperation.It was Master Hou who asked someone to look at them. Through the curtain, I don't know which medical officer is so mysterious.

Hou Ye said it was a folk doctor, and he looked pleasing to the eye, so he brought it in.

Yuan Zhao: "..." It's not a taste!

After another half an hour, San Niang, Si Niang and their sisters-in-law left.She was still sitting in a high position, but she was lying on the table without manners and listless. When she saw Luo Yan coming in, she couldn't help asking:

"Why doesn't Dad ask someone (Zhu Shou) to take a look at it for me? I'm really not my own?"

Look, except for A Niang, everyone in the house has read it, but she didn't.It was obvious that this person was recruited because of her relationship, and while she was "exiled", everyone would forget about her if they had something good to do.

"The master of my subordinate has a pair of eyes, and can tell at a glance whether the princess is safe or not, so why bother?" Luo Yan laughed, "The other wives are the concubines of Lord Hou. How dare the common people blatantly see a doctor for the wives?"

Just right, through the curtain, kill two birds with one stone.

Yuan Zhao didn't really eat this dry vinegar, but was depressed:
"Everyone is good, but my mother is not good..."

To be honest, I feel very uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Luo Yan wanted to say something, but swallowed the words again.Feeling uncomfortable, but can only choose to ignore, persuaded:
"Princess, you have been running around for a day and chatted with everyone for a long time, why don't you take a rest? It's time to go to Madam's place to say hello in one hour, don't forget that Madam asked you to chat with her. Seeing that you are not in good spirits, she Time to worry."

"No matter what I do, she will be worried." Yuan Zhao closed his eyes and fell asleep, and said with emotion, "If there is a panacea in the world to cure my mother's illness, I would like to treat it all my life..."

"Princess, there are gods in the world, and vows should not be taken lightly," Luo Yan rarely interrupted her, "Madam was too worried before, but now that you have returned home, Madam will be able to rest in peace. There are medicines for heart diseases, and spiritual medicine The medicine is not hard to find."

Yuan Zhao: "..." It seems to be the reason.
