When Dashu said this, Dongzi also immediately realized the hype that Dashu's family members would have, and said flatly, "Dashu, then your sweet potato was at my house just now, and I will keep it for you."

"Will it be too much trouble?"

Although Dashu was embarrassed in his words, he was actually very happy in his heart.

"No trouble." Dongzi slapped Dashu's shoulder abruptly, "Dashu, how long have we known each other, why are you saying such unreasonable words? Listen to me, you're right."

"Okay, Dongzi, I'll listen to you."

While Dashu solemnly responded, he secretly gave Li Jin a look, as if secretly telling Li Jin that he finally let Dongzi let go of his knots, and no longer blindly wanted to avoid him.

Li Jin quickly noticed Dashu's eyes, and gave Dashu an expression of continuing to work hard.

Dashu suddenly giggled.

Li Jin saw them digging sweet potatoes and picking sweet potato leaves at the same time, and immediately reminded, "By the way, don't pick all of them, leave a little to let it continue to grow, you can continue picking in a few days, if you want to plant Yes, these sweet potatoes are drought-resistant, you can pick some potato seedlings and go back to try planting."

"Can this thing still grow?"

Dashu and the others were startled.

Dashu and the others were already surprised when they found out that sweet potatoes were edible. Unexpectedly, they could still grow them.

After digging all the way just now, Dashu and the others dug up a lot of sweet potatoes. If they can really plant them, they might be able to survive the drought.

"It can be planted, but whether it can be successfully planted on your land is another matter."

Li Jin didn't say he was dead.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, there were regulations on what to grow on good land, and if they got other crops stipulated by the court, they would be imprisoned.So Dongzi and the others can only plant the remaining dry land.

However, dry land is not good in the first place, and with the addition of drought, nothing can be grown at all.

"Brother Jin, can dry fields be planted?"

Dongzi still didn't give up, and wanted to ask Li Jin about it.

The only man left in Dongzi's family is Liu Rong's newborn baby, which is useless at all.Liu Rong has just given birth, so she is not suitable for farming. Dongzi alone can't do it all by herself. Besides, Dongzi's health is not good enough, so she can't work for a long time. Liu Rong can only give her own land to other villagers. He collects enough grain to pay the tax himself, while he and Dongzi just find some dead ones, as long as they can.

But today is different.

This method was very useful in the past, but now that their family has an extra baby, Liu Rong needs to recuperate, so food is absolutely essential.So if possible, Dongzi would like to try growing sweet potatoes. If it succeeds, Liu Rong would not have to worry about food.

Ying Yuan was puzzled, "Dongzi, didn't the imperial court allocate food? Why don't you go and get it?"

Dongzi shook his head dejectedly.

"We have no power or power, how could we possibly win over those dignitaries in Zhuzhou City, besides, besides the dignitaries, there are also those businessmen looking for someone to pretend to claim it..."

In the past, Dongzi would definitely not talk about these things. After all, if one fails, it will cause big trouble, but Li Jin and the others are different. After Liu Rong's incident, Dongzi will regard Li Jin and the others as his benefactors, so naturally he will not No more taboo.

"Dongzi, no one cares?"

Ying Yuan's face darkened.

Now, Ying Yuan finally knew why so much relief food was distributed, and so many people died every day. It turned out that these people were playing tricks.

Dongzi smiled wryly, "No one will care."

Li Jin appeared at the right time and interrupted them, "A Yuan, Dongzi and the others have almost finished picking, let's go back."

"Ah."

Ying Yuan nodded, and walked side by side with Li Jin.

Their trip to the mountain was very fruitful, and the smile on Dongzi's face never faded.

Seeing Dongzi and Dashu who were laughing and chatting in front of them, Yingyuan said in a voice audible to the two of them, "Ajin, when I enter Zhuzhou City, I will get rid of them, these black apples."

Li Jin nodded and said, "Okay."

"Ajin, why don't you say that I'm being emotional?" Usually, when Yingyuan made a decision, Li Jin would give some advice, but just now Li Jin responded in seconds.

"Since they have the heart to make money for the country, they should be prepared to bear the responsibility."

Li Jin had the same opinion as Ying Yuan, and they did not intend to forgive lightly.

If they usually want a small profit, Li Jin will not refuse to give it, but they absolutely shouldn't take advantage of the fire when the people are in great trouble, regardless of the life and death of the people.

After hearing this, Yingyuan nodded solemnly.

Suddenly.

Li Jin suddenly motioned Ying Yuan to look up, "A Yuan, look at the clouds in the sky."

"Uh... cloud?"

The corner of Ying Yuan's mouth twitched.

They were still talking about Zhuzhou City just now, why did they jump to the cloud for no reason.

"En." Li Jin nodded, and said meaningfully, "Clouds meet clouds, maybe there will be rain in Zhuzhou soon."

"..."

……

There were only so many people in Liujia Village. The news that Li Jin and the others came back with an unknown red object carrying a stone spread quickly in Liujia Village, attracting many people to watch along the way.

"Hey, it's really a stone. Why did they come all the way to get the stone back from the mountain?"

"The same goes for Dongzi. Those two are his father's relatives anyway. Dongzi didn't stop him, and they continued messing around with him. No wonder Dongzi never proposed marriage."

"What do you see those red things? Why do they look so weird?"

"Uh... Those leaves are not edible at all, why did Dongzi pick so many back?"

"Isn't that a big tree? Why are you crazy with Dongzi?"

The three things that Li Jin and the others brought back were not good things in the hearts of the villagers. They all pointed and pointed at Dongzi along the way, saying that Dongzi was messing around and ignorant.

Dashu is because he is capable, so no one talks about him.

A half-grown man who was close to Dashu couldn't help asking curiously, "Dashu, what's that weird thing you're carrying?"

"Oh, you said this?"

Dashu randomly picked up a sweet potato from the basket, and shook it in front of the half-grown man.

"Ah."

The half-grown man nodded quickly.

"I don't know either." Dashu scratched his head carelessly and said, "Dongzi and the others discovered these things. I saw that Dongzi carried them hard, so I just wanted to help. However, Dongzi and the others said that this thing can be eaten."

This statement was made up temporarily before they returned to Liujia Village.

The half-grown man suddenly asked in surprise, "What? Can this weird thing be eaten?"

at the same time.

The villagers watching on the sidelines also showed surprise and disbelief.

"Dongzi, that's covered with mud, are you sure you can eat it?" The half-grown man swallowed and couldn't help asking Dongzi.

"Get rid of the mud, then peel off the skin on the top, or you can wash it with water, put a little water in it, and cook it." After Dongzi said, he took out a few sweet potatoes from the big tree's basket and handed them Said to the half-grown man, "These are for you."

"Thank you."

Although the half-grown man didn't know what it was, he took it anyway.

The situation in this half-grown man's family is not much better than that of Dongzi's family. The adult man in the family was taken away, and he can only stand on top of him alone, but he is no better than an adult man. The younger brothers and sisters in the family are always hungry. Now that Dongzi is willing to give him something to eat, it's too late for him to thank him, so how could he refuse.

Someone saw that the half-grown man Zhu Zi picked up the sweet potatoes, and reminded him worriedly, "Zhu Zi, I think you should throw it away. The things Dongzi gave are unreliable, and they may be poisonous."

"Yes, Zhuzi, just listen to our advice, if something happens, you will be in trouble."

"I don't know what Dongzi's heart is, to write such weird things for you."

Perhaps the prejudice against Dongzi's family was too deep, which made the words of some villagers who didn't like Dongzi's family very unpleasant.

"I believe in big trees."

Zhuzi ignored the villagers' words, hugged the sweet potato Dongzi gave him tightly, and ran towards home.

"Tsk, I really don't know good from bad."

"Anyway, we have persuaded him, if he wants to die, how can we control it?"

"Ah, it's getting late. It's rare to get the well back. I'm going to fetch more water and go home."

"Yes, I want to too."

"I'll go with you."

I confirmed with my own eyes that what Dongzi and the others brought back were all useless things, and the villagers lost interest in continuing to look at it, and immediately dispersed to do other things.

"Let's go back quickly, Eminem should be waiting."

Dongzi was so focused on cooking sweet potatoes for Liu Rong that he didn't take what the villagers said just now to heart.

the other side.

When Zhuzi got home, he immediately followed one of the methods Dongzi said to remove the mud from the sweet potatoes, then washed them with clean water, and put them in a pot to cook.

"Brother Zhuzi, what did you cook? It smells so good." Zhuzi's younger siblings smelled the sweet potato aroma that would come from when Zhuzi opened the pot, and they were all attracted to him.

"Zhuzi, is this something Dongzi gave you just now?"

Zhuzi's mother and grandma were also attracted by the smell of sweet potatoes, and they walked to the side of the pillar at the same time, looking at these boiled sweet potatoes.

Really don't say it.

The appearance of the sweet potatoes after being cooked is quite gratifying.

"Ah."

Zhu Zi nodded, and then carefully took out one of the cooked sweet potatoes.

Grandma Zhuzi said worriedly, "Zhuzi, they all said that this thing is not good, why not... why don't we throw it away."

"Grandma, it's okay, I'll eat first." In order to prove that the food Dongzi gave was edible, Zhuzi endured the heat and broke open the sweet potato and took a bite.

Zhuzi's mother was taken aback by Zhuzi's sudden move, "Zhuzi, aren't you feeling uncomfortable?"

So sweet.

Zhuzi looked at his family excitedly, "Auntie, Auntie, it's sweet, this thing Dongzi gave me is sweet, and it tastes great, you should try it too."

"Sweet? Isn't it?"

Zhuzi's mother and grandma opened their eyes wide in disbelief, and immediately took some to eat at the same time.

It's really sweet, and the taste is absolutely edible.
