Chapter 102
From February onwards, elderly people from all over the country, who are over 65 years old and in good health, who intend to participate in the Changchun Garden banquet in the capital, regardless of whether they are officials or civilians, have arrived one after another.

The colorful shed set up to celebrate this event stretches from Xizhimen to Changchun Garden, which is 20 miles long.The Ministry of Rituals specially stipulated: "It is very unusual to meet Wanshou at the [-]th birthday this year." From the first day of March to the end of the month, Beijing officials have to wear boa robes and men's gowns, breaking the routine of only wearing court clothes for seven days.

Kangxi has never forgotten the secret book about the tax system of the Qing Dynasty submitted by his fourth son Yinzhen. He took this opportunity to meet a group of old people every five days from February, and asked them about their living conditions in detail. Such as what to eat on weekdays, what kind of business the family does, what is the income status, how much tax to pay... and the people sort it out and write down the data.

Every day after school, Hongye would either walk the streets with the tenth elder brother to watch the excitement, or go out to meet the eighteenth elder brother Yinxuan and Hongyun Hongshi. Su Yierha didn't want to detain him, but asked him to bring more guards ——You must know that there was a banquet for thousands of seniors on the Longevity Festival, which was very lively, but it also made the capital more chaotic, and there were many more incidents of stealth and robbery. The newly appointed infantry commander Longkodo I am so busy every day that I dare not relax.

Hongye knew that Su Yierha was worried, so he obediently agreed. Every day when he came back, he described to Su Yierha what he saw and encountered on the street, and once he said to her with great emotion: "Er Mother, you are right, the grain production in different parts of the Qing Dynasty is really different!"

He still remembered that Su Yierha told him when he went to play with his parents in Zhuangzi, the land in the world is different according to the climate, soil?Fertility and barrenness are uneven...the degree of intensive cultivation is different, resulting in different grain yields.

"Did you ask someone?" Su Yierha patted his little head, and told his son when he was very young that he had to check everything before he could draw a conclusion. If there is no way to check for a while, then leave Continue to observe.

"Well, there are people from all over the place... My son took the opportunity to ask, and there are some geography, customs and so on." He smiled embarrassedly, and gave Su Yierha the things he bought on the street today: "Uh Mother, these are bought by my son on the street, they are all specialties from other places... There are also some beautiful fish and small animals, my son asked Aunt Chunyu to take them and raise them first."

Su Yierha saw that there were coconuts, durians, olives, and cantaloupe...they were some fresh and preserved fruits to eat. He couldn't help but sigh that the ancient people were smart. They brought their old people to the capital and knew how to bring their hometown specialties. Selling is really a good way to make money while traveling.

"Er Niang, my son also bought a strange plant from a foreigner today." Hongye took her hand, his eyes widened with a smile, "It blooms big and beautiful flowers, Er Niang must I’ll like it.” Erniang likes planting and collecting strange plants the most. I heard from Mama Guo that Erniang used to pay the tenant farmers to help collect them in the mountains when she lived in the village of Fangshan. Unfortunately, she didn’t She is willing to ask someone to collect these things for her again, saying that it is a waste of manpower and material resources.He still remembered how happy she was when Ama gave her a pair of small Haidongqing as her 20th birthday present last year, she was very beautiful...

Finally, I went out and found it, and bought it, hehe, I will give it to my mother, she must be very happy.

"Then mother should go and have a look!" Su Yierha narrowed her eyes with a smile, no matter whether the plants she bought were strange or not, she was still very happy because of her son's filial piety to her, ha ha.

Hong Ye took her hand carefully, and came to the yard, where there was a potted plant that could be lifted by three people. Su Yier took a look: it was a triangular plant of the cactus family, clean and huge. Some of the flowers are blooming, some are still budding, and the fragrance is everywhere. The whole potted plant makes people feel auspicious at first glance... This is a dragon fruit tree, right? !

She has seen this kind of fruit tree on Baidu pictures, but she has never seen the real thing... Su Yierha looked around it and touched it. There are fruit plants similar to dragon fruit in the space, but there are still some different.What's more, even if they are similar, she can't take them out to eat openly, she can only secretly give them the pulp when they were young...

"Mother, do you know it?"

"Well, the fleshy scales of the fruit of this plant are called pitaya, English Pitaya, Latin name: Hylocereus undatus. The original name is Qinglong fruit and red dragon fruit. The flesh can be divided into red and white. It is rich in nutrition and is often eaten. Dragon fruit is healthy and long-lived, so the common name is Longevity Fruit. It should have been passed down from Southeast Asia and Central America. The climate and soil of Taiwan, Hainan Province, Guangxi and Guangdong in the Qing Dynasty? It is very suitable for planting... This kind of fruit tree Drought-resistant, high-temperature-resistant, light-loving, not strict on soil quality, can be planted on flat land, hillside, sand and gravel land...but it is not frost-tolerant, well, Erniang's multi-orchard and house Zhuangzi in Xiaotangshan may try to plant various varieties Look, we use greenhouses in winter..."

Dragon fruit is rich in nutrition and has unique functions. It contains vegetable albumin and anthocyanins, which are rare in common plants, rich in vitamins and water-soluble dietary fiber, and has dual effects of beauty and health care. Its flowers and stems can also be used as medicine.

My mother is so amazing!Hongye gave Su Yierha admiringly a look, then turned to the dragon fruit tree: "Emiang, when will it bear fruit? Can it catch up with Huang Mafa's [-]th birthday?"

"It can bloom twelve to fifteen times a year, and April to November is its fruit-producing period. Your Huang Mafa may not be able to keep up... But you can dedicate it to your Huang Mafa." Son, she whispered, "Now it's just spring, Er Niang will try to grow seedlings by picking a strong stem node..."

Hong Ye's eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly. Er Niang is very good at planting things, and she will definitely succeed!Hehe, there will be a lot of dragon fruit to eat in the future...

Su Yierha took over the cultivation of dragon fruit with full authority, and she also looked at the other fish and animals that Xiao Hongye bought. The fish are some uncommon fish species in high mountains and remote waters, and she let her multiply in the space After it grows, wait until there are more plants, then take it out and put it in the pond of the multi-planting pavilion.Animals... there were actually three pandas, one big, two small, and the big one had a baby in its stomach. She simply put them in the Zhushan in the space; there were also two little wolf dogs, a little Pekingese, A chow chow... She put them together into the space with a black thread, to be company with the Tibetan mastiff and chow chow in Ruyi residence.

The original and the Chow Chow have given birth to four little Tibetan Mastiffs and four little Chow Chows.The little Tibetan Mastiff and the Chow Chow were born and grew up in the space, they are very spiritual, and their bodies are extraordinarily healthy, while the old pair of Tibetan Mastiff and Chow Chow don’t grow old in the space, but because they eat the water and fruits in the space for a long time (Sometimes, it will release Duozaixuan to play with the children) It looks strong and majestic.Su Yierha thought about it, and brought them out. We can't let these housekeeper animals just go in and out, anyway, there are already their offspring in the space... Besides, Hongye has moved to Songbai She lives in the hospital, and she will be more at ease with a Tibetan mastiff following her.

As for the pair of white eagles given to her by the leader in 49, they already had two young offspring flying around all day long. Two days ago, they laid eggs again, but they haven’t hatched yet. The Haidongqing given to her last year... ...still growing, these animals in space grow much slower than plants.

"Er Niang?" As soon as Hongye entered the room, he was attracted by a tall and mighty black Tibetan mastiff. After saluting Su Yierha, his eyeballs kept looking at it. This is the "Black General". Well, Er Niang rarely let him play with them, why let him out today?
It is said that ever since Hongye saw the two Tibetan mastiffs raised by Su Yierha, he had been thinking about them, but he never knew where Erniang hid them, even if he wanted to play with them secretly, he couldn't find them.

"Yuanshou, do you like it?" Su Yierha touched his son's moon head and asked.

"Yeah." He nodded vigorously, looking at her with black and bright phoenix eyes, "Mother, can I touch it?"

"Yes." Su Yier watched with a smile as his son stroked the hair and head of the Tibetan mastiff, and shook hands with it... After a while, he said, "Emiang gave this Tibetan mastiff to you, and you have to take good care of it in the future." It, feed it food and drink water yourself...you want to treat it as a friend, you know?"

"Really?! Thank you, Erniang!" Hong Ye jumped up happily, "I will take good care of it, I really like 'Black General'..."

"'Black General' come here!" Without waiting for Su Yierha to wave, the Tibetan Mastiff who had been squatting on the ground stood up and walked over gracefully on all fours.Su Yierha patted the fur on its back, and said to it: "He will be your master from now on, follow him and protect him for me, okay?"

"Black General" looked at her for a long while, then let out a low "woo hoo" a few times, nodded, and rubbed her hand again.

"'Bai Niangzi' is staying in Duozaixuan." Su Yierha felt a little sour, and said, "When your master comes, you will come with him, so let's play with it."

"Black General" made a few more "woo"s, turned around and walked to Hongye's side, rubbed him, and squatted down beside him.Hong Ye excitedly touched it again. "You like to eat fruit and fish, don't you? It's okay. I'll bring you to eat at Duozaixuan every day... Then you can eat with 'Bai Niangzi'..."

"Bingya wants it too." Xiao Bingya stood at the door, her little face was tense, and Erniang and her brother were having fun again while she was sleeping... Eyeballs stared straight at the girl who was much taller than her. A "black general" like a hill.Nanny Zhu followed behind her with a look of bewilderment, looking in fear at the "Black General" who was ready to go when the stranger approached, exuding a ferocious aura.

Hongye patted "Black General", pointed at Xiao Bingya and said, "This is my sister Bingya, we must protect her from now on."

"Black General" whined twice and squatted back.Grandma Zhu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Bingya, come here, Erniang will give you a white Chow Chow, okay? Look, how cute is it?" Su Yierha pointed to the two Chow Chows running around the house.

It is very cute, Xiao Bingya looked at it for a while, pointed to "Black General" and said: "Tall, big."

What kind of aesthetics does this child have? Why do girls keep such a large pet?Su Yierha tried to persuade: "But Bingya is small, how can you play with it? You see, the Chow Chow can play hide-and-seek with you. It is very dangerous for my brother to go out every day, and the black general can protect him..."

"Be the same as your brother!" Bingya said firmly.

The child struggled...Su Yierha waved at Chun Yu who was giggling with a headache, "Go and bring the 'Bai Niangzi' here."

The color is different from her brother's, but it is also tall and mighty. Similarly, it sits when she says to sit down, and runs when she says to run... Xiao Bingya is satisfied.

When Yinzhen came over in the evening, she was able to ride the "White Snake" on the bluestone path of Duozaixuan to greet her.

...Almost frightened her Ama's Bingshan face, he hugged Xiao Bingya and looked at her for a while before making sure she was okay.

Su Yi Erha suddenly balanced.
