Old Lady Jia through the Red Mansions

Brothers Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng would not object to Mrs. Jia's new interest.In the eyes of their brothers, as long as the mother is happy!Whether she likes to grow flowers or vegetables in her own yard.

Planting flowers and plants is nothing but arty, except for sister Min and Jia Zheng who love to read, arty is nothing more than that.For Jia She, it doesn't matter what to plant!And planting vegetables and fruits is for the mother's good mood.What's wrong with that? !

Jia Lian, Jia Zhu, and even Jia Yuanchun knew from Zhuangzi that their grandmother loved the land.Even if grandma now makes her yard look like a farmyard, they won't be surprised.Instead, in order to make grandma happy, he went to play with her.

Jia Lian loves those melons and vegetables the most!I even went to my grandmother's yard when I was free, just to see how those seeds germinated, and how those women took care of those vegetables under the guidance of my grandmother.

In the whole big house, only Jia Lian's mother, Mrs. Zhang, was looking at the mother-in-law's yard as a farmyard.She felt like her brain was pumping!She comes from a scholarly family, and she is a little puzzled by her mother-in-law's pastoral dream.

She thought: In the future, I really can't just bring anyone into my mother-in-law's courtyard, some people with shallow eyelids, maybe...

When she was sleeping at night, she was lying on the bed with Jia She, and she told Jia She her worries.

"You, I really think too much. Mother won't care about that. Besides, as long as those people don't come here specially to see mother, why would they take people to mother's yard to disturb mother?"

"What my husband said is that since my father passed away, my mother doesn't like to socialize."

"Mother doesn't like to socialize, so let's work harder and don't disturb the quietness of mother."

"Ah."

"You, your head is too idle to think about it, so I can find something for you..."

As Jia She said, he rolled over and pushed himself under Zhang, and for a moment, the room was full of spring...

The maidservant who was watching the night outside heard the movement inside and smiled at each other: the relationship between the general and his wife is getting better and better, and their life is getting better and better!The two quietly retreated outside, and ordered someone to boil hot water in the small kitchen, which is usually needed at night like this...

The old lady let go of everything in the family, and the family affairs seemed to have nothing to do with her.She felt that what she needed to take care of was her yard and her dowry.What do you do with the rest of your time?

Isn't there a vegetable garden?Although those women would not let her do it, she would continue to be the conductor by the side.

Take care of the vegetable garden, continue to listen to Leng An's gossip, and occasionally listen to operas, those dramas are narrated from TV dramas in the old lady's memory, and then they sort out and let the troupe play out.

Usually the troupe rehearses a good show, and the old lady is the first to watch it. If something is wrong, the old lady can give pointers...

Just live a leisurely life, and soon, another harvest season will arrive!The interplanting of corn and potatoes yielded a bumper harvest.This intercropping is exactly what the old lady learned from the old lady's farmers in the village.They mistakenly think: This is how the new seed is planted!

With this beautiful misunderstanding, when they guide others to breed, they don't even need an explanation!When asked, they said:

"That's how the new breed was grown."

With the harvest, you can give things to the Holy One!

After discussing with Lin Ruhai, Jia Amnesty followed what the old lady said to keep a low profile. It would be best if no one else knew about it except the Holy One.After all, if he and Jia Amnesty were to solve the problem of people's livelihood, then those princes would come to him if they could do something wrong!

If he puts all the achievements on the saint, but he is only doing things for the saint.Then, Jia Amnesty would not be noticeable.

On this day, when Emperor Xuankang left the court, he heard his eunuch report:

"My lord, General Jia is asking to see you."

"Jia? Who is it?"

"Returning to the Holy Lord, it is Jia She, the eldest son of Yuan Rong Guogong and Jia Daishan."

"Him? What can happen?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, General Jia brought a gift, saying that he came to thank His Majesty."

"Oh? What is it?"

"The slave doesn't know."

"Let him in!"

Jia She, who was waiting outside the hall, was not very courageous at first, and he couldn't enter the hall after waiting outside for a long time.He began to think: Is it because he hastily wanted to visit the Holy One.Is His Majesty angry?When the Holy One gets angry, it is a terrible thing...

As soon as he was nervous, and there was Qiu Huhu, the bean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead began to drip down. He raised his sleeves, and before he could wipe the sweat, he heard the eunuch's voice:

"Xuan, see General Jia!"

This time, Jia Amnesty didn't even care to wipe off his sweat, he raised his foot and followed into the hall, bowing down.

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Lord."

"Just now, Xiao Lizi said that you came to thank me, why are you thanking me?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, last year Weichen's mother said that she wanted to know what Westerners eat. After searching for a long time, Weichen found plants, which are corn and potatoes." Jia She said as he opened the package and mixed the corn and potatoes inside. The washed potatoes were brought out.

"These are two kinds of food..." Then Jia She told him what his mother told him about the fact that corn is easy to grow, does not need to choose the land, and interplanting with potatoes can save land and so on.

After hearing Jia Amnesty's explanation, Emperor Xuankang was very moved and asked:

"These two kinds of things can be grown anywhere?"

"Return to the Holy One, that's right. Moreover, these two kinds of grains are relatively drought-tolerant."

"You also said it's food, how do you eat it?"

"My lord, the corn that Wei Chen brought to you today is fresh and tender, and it can be eaten as long as it is boiled with water. This mature corn can be ground into flour to make pancakes, pot stickers, etc. It is full and delicious... Weichen's mother also asked Weichen to write you the recipes of the food."

As Jia Amnesty spoke, he took out the pre-written recipe and presented it with both hands. Xiao Lizi took the recipe and presented it to Emperor Xuankang.

Emperor Xuankang glanced at the recipe and said:

"Little Lizi, ask someone to give the recipe and these two kinds of food to the people in the imperial dining room to make them."

"Yes."

After all, they were things that had never been seen before. Emperor Xuankang would definitely want to see if those things were real, and they were as good as Jia She said.

After Xiao Lizi asked people to take away the things, Emperor Xuankang discussed with Jia Amnesty the planting and production of corn and potatoes.

Hearing Jia She said that corn can be planted for two seasons, and that two things can be used for interplanting, er, interplanting, saving land, and high yields, Emperor Xuankang's eyes flashed.This is really a baby!

If these two kinds of grains are really as good as Jia She said, then in winter, farmers will not be so short of grains!Army rations...

"My lord, the boiled corn and braised potatoes are ready..."

"Quick, present it!"

The food is here, but why is this corn so well wrapped and how to eat it?

Jia Amnesty happened to take a sneak peek at Emperor Xuankang, seeing the doubts of the Holy Majesty, his expression was the same as his own back then.Hastily opened the mouth and said:

"My lord, this corn on the cob..."

Emperor Xuankang took the corn on the cob that Jia She had peeled, and was about to bite it, but the eunuch who was trying it snatched the corn away in a hurry.

For the taster eunuchs, food that has not been tried before cannot enter the mouth of the Holy One!Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.Well, this, this corn or something, it's really delicious!

Emperor Xuankang had never been so annoyed as he is now. The food that was about to reach his mouth was taken away by an eunuch!If it was in the past, he might not feel that there was anything wrong, after all, that slave did it for his safety.

When he looked up and saw the satisfied faces of those eunuchs, he became a little dissatisfied.

Fortunately, soon, someone peeled another corn for him and presented it.Emperor Xuankang took the corn, took a bite, and chewed carefully. The soft corn kernels are glutinous, sweet, and taste great...

When Jia Amnesty saw that Emperor Xuankang wanted to eat one more shot, he quickly stopped him:

"My lord, this corn is not easy to digest, how about you try this potato again?"

Maybe it was the first time I ate different food and felt fresh.But it is true that after eating those foods, it is almost like eating a meal, and it feels full!It seems that what Jia She said was true, he found two treasures for him!

Jia Jia, is a good one!In order to save himself, Jia Daishan was injured and went early.His son found something good and thought of himself first.Or, give him a title promotion?

"Okay! Jia Aiqing has done a great deed for the country!"

"Your Majesty's praise, this minister was just filial to his mother, and he didn't intend to get it. The mother of this minister said that it's a pity that she was born as a minister and could not contribute to the country. Now that she can contribute a little, it is not worthy of praise."

"You, mother really said so?"

"Hui Sheng said, my mother did teach me this way."

"You have a good mother!"

When Jia Amnesty heard the Holy Majesty praised his mother, he was happier than he was praised!Seeing His Majesty's father-like face again, he lost his mind for a moment and regarded Emperor Xuankang as an elder, and casually said what old lady Jia taught him:

"Weichen thinks so too, mother often says..."

Emperor Xuankang didn't interrupt him, and just quietly listened to Jia She's eloquent talk about his mother.That, is indeed a good mother!It's not appropriate to let a short-term general manage the business, but as she said:

"Staying at home with nothing to do every day, doing something like a dude, it's better to do something meaningful!"

What is meaningful is like asking Jia She to find rare seeds for her, manage her own private property, and so on.What is better than playing with birds and walking dogs? It is meaningful to do practical things.

Doing nothing and having money to spend is easy for people to fall, so after paying off the money owed to the treasury, there is not enough left at home...
