Generals take care of their children: The master mother leads the system to farm

Chapter 96: Precious Ginseng, Heaven's Secret Unbreakable

That night.

Li Changle still asked Jiang to stay in the bedroom to watch the two children sleep, Leng Er to guard, and she brought a group of people to the three acres of vegetable field.

Three acres of land, just for growing vegetables, is already quite large.

Various vegetables were planted. Li Changle didn't know whether Dayan had any, but she planted all the vegetables she knew in the system.

She asked several people to carry baskets to collect vegetables, while she herself took a few rectangular wooden boxes and squatted down next to a few ginseng plants.

Letting Gu Jingyan hold the torch, she took a shovel and started digging ginseng.

"When I open a farm, I will find a suitable piece of land on Xiaole Mountain, fence it off, and plant a medicinal field, including ginseng."

"Raise some deer for people to enjoy and harvest for their antlers."

"I want to take Shixi and Xiaoyuer with me and teach them how to grow crops, vegetables and medicinal herbs."

Gu Jingyan: "..."

Shouldn’t his eldest daughter learn how to embroider a handkerchief with a needle, or how to play the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting? ?

The farm hasn't even started yet, but big talk and big promises are being made every day.

I hope her wish comes true.

Li Changle almost lay prone on the ground, digging the soil next to the plant carefully.

"Hey, this ginseng is really big..."

After a while, she raised her head from the ground.

Gu Jingyan moved the torch closer and saw that she was holding a ginseng of very good quality in her hand.

She put the ginseng into one of the wooden boxes and said, "It's a fortune. This one will probably sell for a lot of money."

I dug six ginseng roots in a row and put them into six boxes.

Ouyang Siyuan came over and asked quietly, "Sister-in-law, where did you get this ability to turn treasures out of thin air?"

The Li family's firewood room, the shed outside the Li family's courtyard, Xiaozhouzhuang, Leshanzhuangzi, the big puddle...

It’s not that Ouyang Siyuan wasn’t curious, he just knew that even if he asked, people might not tell him.

He considered himself to be an honest man and would not do anything to embarrass a woman.

but……

The feeling of being anxious and worried is really frustrating.

Li Changle is deliberately mysterious...

It wasn't as if she was being mysterious. She just answered him ambiguously, "The secret cannot be revealed. Your Highness, don't be so curious. The more you know, the more detrimental it will be to your lifespan."

Ouyang Siyuan: "..."

Listening to the nonsense, it even involves life...

A few days later, Emperor Ouyang Qin, who was far away in Kyoto, received a letter from Ouyang Siyuan.

The letter contained several pictures of harvesters sweeping across wheat fields.

In addition, there was also Li Changle’s weird words.

"...Sister-in-law actually said that it is not good for your life span. Father, please remember this and do not ask more about this matter in the future. After all, the people of Dayan are the ones who benefit. Don't let this discourage people..."

Ouyang Qin snorted and laughed, "Why do I need him to teach me how to do something? After spending two days in the fields, he thinks he is an experienced farmer."

He picked up the blueprint of the harvester and looked at it carefully, not missing any details. After looking at it for a long time, he finally sighed with regret, "In my great country, no one has the talent to create such a tool."

The steward Chen He came in from outside the imperial study, holding three wooden boxes carefully in his arms.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has brought back a lot of things, including the contents of these three boxes. Your Majesty must take a look, they are valuable items."

Ouyang Qin was intrigued by what he said, "What is it? Bring it forward."

Ever since Gu Jingyan's wife was found, new things happen every other day.

Chen He placed three square boxes on the desk and opened one of them.

"Your Majesty, please look. This is northern ginseng. It is truly top-grade in quality."

Ouyang Qin held it in his hand and looked at it for a while, then asked Chen He to open the other two boxes.

Chen He naturally did as he was told.

After a moment, three boxes were lined up on the desk.

"It is indeed a valuable item." Ouyang Qin pointed at the box and smiled, "Do you think it was given by Ouyang Siyuan as a gift? How much silver is in his pocket? How could I not know?"

"He can't even afford half a ginseng. This must have been sent by Gu Jingyan and his wife."

Then he turned around and asked Chen He: "Is there anything else?"

Chen He: "Your Majesty is wise, it is true."

As he said this, he shouted "Come in" outside the door. The palace maids and eunuchs who had been waiting for a long time came in twos carrying large foam boxes and put the things on the floor of the study.

This time, we brought back more than a dozen boxes.

One box of apples and one box of lychees.

There is a box of prawns produced by Shuikeng, all of which are palm-sized prawns.

A box of big fish produced by Shuikeng.

The vegetables include 10 kinds, such as chrysanthemum, Chinese cabbage, spinach, pumpkin, emperor cabbage, cauliflower, eggplant, cabbage, etc.

Same box.

Ouyang Qin walked out from behind the desk and looked at the foam boxes. He was very happy. "Hahaha, Jing Yan is a good wife. She is quite interesting."

This way of hugging someone's thigh is really pleasing.

"Alas, you are soft-hearted when you receive favors, and you are grateful when you eat the food. Not only did that bastard Ouyang Siyuan go there to eat and drink for free, but now I am also trying to get free food from a distance."

After that, I picked up a lychee, peeled it with my fingers, and the lychee fruit aroma with a faint flavor of osmanthus penetrated into my nose.

"This lychee fruit is better than the ones I tasted in previous years."

Lychees are a southern fruit and are picked every summer. People in the north cannot eat this fruit.

Moreover, most ordinary people have never been able to see this fruit.

During the picking season, local officials would present the fruits as tribute to the imperial court.

However, the storage and preservation techniques in ancient times were relatively primitive, and it was not easy to eat a fresh lychee.

Even though the emperor could receive some tribute every year, after taking into account the loss caused by weather and long journeys, even the emperor could not achieve lychee freedom.

Now it is winter, so the shelf life of food is naturally longer than in the hot summer. In addition, the system has the property of producing food at a high speed.

This large box of lychees that had been picked several days ago looked like they had just been picked yesterday. They were covered with branches, leaves and hay, and the lychee leaves were still green.

Ouyang Qin was in a good mood, thinking of Grand Tutor Sun Li, and asked Chen He: "Has Grand Tutor Sun received any tribute from his grandson?"

Chen He approached the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, no. It seems that General Gu is waiting for you to give a portion to the Grand Tutor. Wasn't that what happened last time?"

The emperor felt even more strangely relieved.

"Pack up a portion and send it to the Sun Mansion, saying it's from Gu Jingyan to honor the old man. Hahaha, I won't be so shameless as to talk about rewarding you."

"Give the remaining fruits to the queen."

After saying this, he picked up a box on the desk with a painful look on his face, "Take this ginseng to the Sun Mansion as well, for the Grand Tutor. One ginseng is enough for him."

Chen He touched his nose. It seemed that what the emperor was most satisfied with was ginseng.

He received the order and retreated with a group of palace maids and eunuchs. Then he packed up a "grandson's gift" and carried the ginseng box himself, left the palace and went to the Taifu Mansion.
