With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly

"This thing is soft and sticky when you put it in your mouth, soft but not mushy, and full of soup. It's delicious."

"This shredded meat is crispy, sour and spicy, and it makes me feel a little hungry."

"This cake has a crispy crust and soft and delicate inside. It's delicious."

She looked at Nan Yan and praised, "Yan'er, I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good. It's so delicious."

The Queen Mother had eaten all kinds of delicacies from land and sea. Hearing her say this, Shang Yue became extremely curious about the dishes on the table.

He couldn't help but pick up his chopsticks to taste it.

It was indeed as the Queen Mother said, every dish was amazing, and he couldn't stop nodding.

Seeing that they were so positive about her dishes, Nan Yan's eyes curved into crescents with joy.

She knew that no one could resist potatoes.

The Queen Mother took a few more bites and put down her chopsticks, her expression anxious, "Yan'er, stop playing dumb and tell us what this is."

Looking at the man who was also looking at her expectantly, Nan Yan smiled gently, "Mother, let's eat first, and I will tell you after the meal."

She was afraid to tell them because they were both so excited that they couldn't eat.

Such good food cannot be wasted.

The Queen Mother already liked Nan Yan, and Nan Yan managed the harem in an orderly manner, gave birth to a pair of talented grandsons for her, and did a lot for Da Shang.

She likes Nan Yan from the bottom of her heart and admires her.

To be honest, she had also been a queen, and although she had read a lot of poetry and books, she was only good at reciting poems and composing couplets.

If she were asked to do something for the people, she could only provide some porridge, but she couldn't give advice to court officials like Nan Yan did.

As a woman, Nan Yan is a role model for everyone, and also hers.

Nan Yan said this, but she was not angry that she was in a daze. Instead, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's eat first and talk about it later, otherwise the taste of these dishes will change."

Shang Yue naturally listened to Nan Yan unconditionally.

Little Lezhi and Little Leyu have finished their mashed potatoes.

"Mother, it's delicious. I'll eat it again tomorrow." Little Lezhi smacked her lips and patted her round belly.

If her mother hadn't told her that eating too much would make her stomach explode, she would still be eating.

"Okay, if you like, I will make it for you tomorrow."

Xiao Lezhi and Xiao Leyu ran out to play.

After finishing their meal, Nan Yan and the other two moved to the stone bench in the yard and sat down.

The sun sets and dusk is approaching.

The afterglow of the sunset peeled away the thick clouds, and the whole Changle Palace was dyed orange-red like a painting.

Occasionally a breeze blew, and Nan Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Nan Yan: "Gingxing, have someone bring over what we dug today."

There was a big basket of potatoes. I used eight of them tonight and the basket is still almost full.

Looking at the long, round, lump-like things in the backpack, the Queen Mother asked, "Yan'er, are these what we're going to use for tonight's dishes?"

Nan Yan nodded, "That's right."

"What is this?" She had never seen it before.

Shang Yue also looked curious.

Nan Yan: "I had people dig these out of the soil, so I named them potatoes."

"Potatoes, like beans dug out of the soil, are quite edible." After saying that, the Queen Mother asked again, "Then how do you know that these potatoes are edible?"

"I happened to see this kind of thing in a miscellany. It can be used as a staple food or a dish. But I have never seen potatoes on the table before. I thought we didn't have this kind of thing in Da Shang."

The original person loved reading, and she read poetry, songs, travel notes and miscellaneous notes. She also liked reading miscellaneous notes and travel notes. Now there are hundreds of miscellaneous notes in her study.

Anyway, just push everything into miscellaneous notes and travel notes.

Shang Yue and the Queen Mother both knew that Nan Yan liked reading, and they gave her many books from their collections.

What's more, they had no doubt about which dam Nan Yan knew about, so naturally they had no doubts about the potatoes.

Seeing that the two looked normal, Nan Yan continued to explain.

"At the beginning of July, Yu'er and Zhizhi went out to play. When they came back, they picked a few flowers and gave them to me. I thought they looked familiar, and after a closer look, I realized they were potato flowers."

"I asked Xiao Dezi to take me to the cold palace where the two children were picking flowers, and indeed, I found potatoes. Now that the potatoes are ripe, I had someone dig them out this afternoon."

This thing can be used as a staple food, and can also be used as a dish. It has a variety of cooking methods and tastes delicious.

Shang Yue's mind moved slightly, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, "Then can these potatoes be planted?"

"Of course they can be grown. Not only are these potatoes delicious, they can be cooked in many ways, and they don't require a lot of soil. They can be grown on sandy or low-quality land. Most importantly, the yield is very high."

The Queen Mother and Shang Yue looked at each other, and the excitement in their eyes was clearly visible.

“How many kilograms can be produced per mu?”

"At least more than one thousand kilograms." Nan Yan only said the minimum output. Because of modern fertilizers and newly developed seeds, the yield per mu can reach more than five thousand kilograms.

Just this number was enough to excite Shang Yue and the Queen Mother.

If the yield is really that high and it is easy to grow, then in time it will no longer be a fantasy for all the people to have enough food to eat.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath, her expression showing both nervousness and excitement, "Yan'er, is the yield really that high?"

"Today, I only had people dig up a dozen plants, and there was a backpack full of them." Nan Yan pointed at the basket, using facts to prove that what she said was true.

There is a backpack full of a dozen plants, so the yield for one acre of land must be over one thousand kilograms, or even three or two thousand kilograms.

Shang Yue and the Queen Mother were overwhelmed with joy.

The Queen Mother stood up excitedly and said, "We can't eat these potatoes anymore. Save them for seeds and plant them next spring."

Nan Yan pulled the excited empress dowager to sit down.

"Mother, feel free to eat these!"

"After I found potatoes in the cold palace, I guessed that there should be potatoes in other places, so I sent people to look for them. The people I sent out found two pieces of potatoes on the mountain outside the capital. They should be able to dig them up tomorrow."

"I had those potatoes put in the cellar of Ayue's farm outside Beijing, to be used as seeds for next year."

Shang Yue knew that Nan Yan sent people to the mountains outside Beijing to look for something, but he didn't know that she wanted people to look for potatoes.

She actually did so many things behind their backs.

Shang Yue only felt a surge of warmth in his heart, his dark eyes curved like a bright moon, staring at Nan Yan intently.

The Queen Mother patted Nan Yan on the shoulder with a look of gratitude on her face. She didn't know what to say to thank Nan Yan.

Yan'er and Yu'er Zhizhi are truly the lucky stars of their Dashang.

In the end, he only said, "Yan'er, I thank you on behalf of the people."

Nan Yan lowered her eyes, her expression calm, "Mother, your words are too serious. As the mother of a country, this is my responsibility as a minister."

This sentence made the Queen Mother admire her even more.

It is a blessing for Da Shang to have such a good emperor, empress, princes and princesses!

She believed that Dashang could prosper for another hundred years.
