Grasp the farming script in the famous book

Roland has lived in the "Arrogant Plane" for a long time, and feels that he can understand the character of Lydia Bennett to a certain extent——

She enjoys her mother's preference, but is a little girl who is "raised" by her father and has no one to discipline her;

Curiosity is quite strong, but there is no one to lead;

Young, pretty, fun-loving, and ignorant of the world of marriage, family, and adults.

Her world is small and monotonous, and only people like Meryton come and go, and the only things she can do in her daily life are prepare for the dance, attend the dance and gossip.

Lydia Bennett's vanity was gratified and indulged in the presence of the handsome officers stationed at Meryton.

Roland sometimes felt that he could also experience the kind of "indulgence" that Lydia was after. As a pretty girl, sitting among young men in neat military uniforms, listening to their affectionate compliments talk.

Even Roland felt the feeling of "being valued" and "becoming the focus" on this occasion, not to mention the little girl who was not deeply involved.

The character was judged to be frivolous, immodest, and fond of coquettishness - which Roland thought was justifiable.

But Lydia's hobbies are far from Roland's, and they are also completely different in terms of energy management and time allocation.Roland once imagined that if this personality really existed, she and Lydia would have a fight sooner or later.

Fortunately, it's just an "anti-OOC card" now, as long as the superficial article is done well.

Now Roland, in order to cope with life after entering the social world, came up with a coup:

She generously opened the big wardrobe in the bedroom, and took out all the hats, ribbons, lace and skirts inside, and let her sisters choose at will, and use whatever they wanted.

The sisters didn't expect the youngest sister to be so generous, and after confirming that it was correct, they all happily accepted it.

Kitty got the ribbons and fabrics she had been coveting for a long time, and immediately promised Roland happily that she would help her decorate all kinds of skirts and shoes prepared for the ball.

Jane and Elizabeth both nodded, expressing that they would help Roland do her part when sewing various coats of lace.

Mary is not interested in these "outsides", but promised Roland that after everyone "patronizes" Roland's wardrobe, she will help her tidy up her clothes and hats.

With the full support of her four sisters, Roland no longer has to think about these "outsides", and can concentrate on her daily work——

Her two greenhouses, one of which is dedicated to breeding, have produced a crop of onions, turnips, lettuces, carrots, and cabbages for the sharecroppers to help plant in the " vegetable garden".

Taking advantage of the fact that winter has not yet entered and the weather is not too cold, these farms in Longborn just happened to be able to grow another batch of vegetables.

It was difficult for the seedlings of these vegetables to germinate in this weather—but Roland promoted the growth of the seedlings by raising the temperature and intensifying the light in the greenhouse.

After these seedlings germinate and grow leaves, they are transplanted into a vegetable garden specially cultivated with soil. It takes about a month for the seedlings to grow outdoors in a colder environment before they can reach the edible standard.

These vegetables grow slowly in this kind of weather, but when they grow up, they have a special sweet taste than the vegetables grown in summer.

In addition, these seedlings are carefully selected by Roland, and many of them are excellent varieties from the Royal Botanic Garden. No matter in appearance, color, or flavor, they are all impeccable.

Roland carefully planned Longborn's vegetable garden in advance, and planted each vegetable in a specific area—rhombic, circular, drop-shaped... Different areas are separated by short hedges.

Looking from a distance, in this large vegetable garden, all kinds of vegetables are well arranged and pleasing to the eye.

The tenant farmers who came to help were amazed: "Miss, where are you growing vegetables? You are clearly growing vegetables as flowers!"

Roland smiled and said nothing.After a few days, she picked up some of the ripe vegetables and distributed them to the tenant farmers.

After tasting the vegetables they had grown with their own hands, the sharecroppers stopped calling them flowers.

"Where can there be such delicious flowers and plants?"

Fresh and ripe vegetables, washed and eaten raw, taste sweet and crisp, like fruit; stewed, it is an excellent side dish for meat.

"Miss, can you sell some of your seedlings to us? We are also planting them in Mr. Bennett's field."

"Yes, after all, the fields are empty after the autumn harvest."

Roland: I wish I could.

This request hit Roland's heart. She was worried that the vegetable garden in Longborn was not big enough for her to promote these winter vegetables.

These seedlings do not require the tenant farmers to pay for the purchase. They only need to sell these vegetables to the "Meridon North and South Foodstuffs" after all the vegetables are mature.

The people in the food shop will check the quality of the vegetables and pay them for growing these vegetables according to the quality.

Prior to this, in addition to teaching planting techniques to sharecroppers, Roland also distributed a set of "How to take care of winter vegetables" cards.

These "farming cards" use simple strokes to draw the skills of growing vegetables, how to fertilize, how to irrigate, how to remove insects... and mark them with simple and straightforward words.

"Miss...here, we don't know how to read either!"

Roland put on a serious face: "Didn't your family send your child to Mr. Fletcher to learn to read and write?"

Mr. Simon Fletcher was resident clerk at Longbourne.He had been in Longborn for several months and was working on teaching the village children, both boys and girls, to read and write.

The tenant farmers were all stunned: ... That's right.

There is nothing embarrassing about going home to ask your own children for advice. By the way, you will test how well the children have learned.

If it doesn't work, you can ask Mr. Fletcher.

If it doesn't work, come back and ask the little lady.

Roland saw them solemnly put these cards into their pockets, and laughed inwardly—the tenant farmers didn’t seem to realize that she was also deliberately guiding these farmers who deal with the fields all year round to start reading the cards. Write about content related to farming.

"Everyone, please do what you can!"

When distributing the seedlings to the tenant farmers, Roland did not forget to remind: "This autumn and winter, we will be very busy."

With this batch of vegetables, the matsutake season is coming soon.

Once the matsutake is picked, it will be the truffle season.

This time Roland has already said hello to Thomson and Fron: it will supply the company with fresh matsutake during the matsutake season.

The preservation requirements of fresh matsutake are higher than those of truffles, and the "Thomson and Fren" company has also contacted the ice factory, and the received matsutake will be chilled throughout the process before being sent to London.

Now the matsutake in the pine forest can be picked openly to supply more dining tables.

As for truffles, Roland has also reached an agreement with Thomson and Fren: this time, in addition to supplying fresh black truffles, Roland will also provide some by-products made of truffles, which will be sold by Thomson and Fren to see how the market responds .

These by-products include truffle oil: truffles soaked in extra virgin olive oil sourced in Southern Europe, with a dash of high-quality pine nuts harvested in pine forests.Adding a little seasoning when cooking can maximize the umami flavor of the ingredients like fresh truffles, and it is easier to preserve than fresh truffles.

In addition, Roland also tried to make some black truffle sausages, and also took a fancy to the advantages of sausages that are more durable than fresh truffles-in this way, she can extend the supply time of truffle products, and diners can also eat more freshness.

The tenant farmers burst into laughter when they heard Roland's reminder.

"God bless, Miss, let's be busy! The busier the better, the busier...the better we can have a Christmas!"

Due to their past experience, the tenant farmers in Longbourne gradually developed an almost superstitious admiration for Roland.

Now they don't have to think about it at all, as long as they follow what Roland said, the labor they put in will turn into tangible gains.

Now there are several nearby manors, Sir Lucas's house, Mrs. Lang's house, Netherfield... Farmers everywhere are asking why the tenant farmers in Longbourn have recently become richer with the naked eye - I want to find someone to ask Ask, but I can't find anyone, everyone is in the vegetable garden, in the farmland, in the pine forest... very busy.

Roland, too, had her workplace near the big house in Longbourne—either in the conservatory or in the vegetable garden.

That day, she was busy in the greenhouse with her head down, when she suddenly heard someone calling from behind: "Miss Lydia Bennett!"

Roland turned around and saw Charlotte, the eldest lady of Sir Lucas's family.

"You've come to see Lizzie?"

Roland remembered that this lady was a good friend of her second sister Elizabeth.

"Lizzie is at home. You go in first, and Mrs. Hill will come to greet you."

"Miss Lydia—"

Charlotte actually stayed at the door of the greenhouse. She seemed to be looking up and down in the greenhouse, all kinds of pottery pots, irrigation pipes, tools, and green flowers and plants.

"I'm here to see you," Charlotte said.

Roland froze for a moment, then quickly put down the tools in his hand, took off the gloves covered in mud, and stretched out his hand to Charlotte: "Welcome!"

She really didn't expect Charlotte to come to her.

Charlotte Lucas, the eldest daughter of the neighbor Sir Lucas, is 27 years old, just one round behind Lydia Bennett.Charlotte is not considered beautiful, nor does she have much property under her name, and she has never been married until now.

But she was on good terms with Elizabeth, and they were both sly-talking and witty, the kind who could take a sarcasm very seriously.

Roland likes to listen to the two sisters Charlotte and Elizabeth, and thinks it can increase their knowledge.

"Why, don't you want to show me the changes you have made to this plane?" Charlotte slowly squeezed Roland's hand.

Roland was stunned for another second before he realized—the changes made to this plane?

Charlotte Lucas, like her, is a "contestant" who comes to this plane and competes for the audience's attention and favorability.
