The Hulk of the Red Chamber

There are still people growing this, but the scale is very small. Most of them use vines to feed cattle and sheep. The people there also know that this plant has a high yield, but it is not easy to preserve, and it will be poisonous after it rots. Therefore, people plant very little. .

After Shi Hong heard about it, he was also dumbfounded. He didn't know how to preserve this thing. In his previous life, his family occasionally bought some, and they either cooked porridge or baked it directly in the microwave oven. Worry about saving things.However, thanks to the variety of food in that year, Shi Hong knew that sweet potatoes could still be dried in the sun or ground into powder to make vermicelli noodles. It's not clear, but, he thought, he just needs to provide an idea and let people try one by one, it's nothing more than those methods.

With the news, Shi Hong is not in a hurry. According to the villagers in Fujian, this stuff can be planted in spring, and it can be harvested in late summer and early autumn. As for the seeds, they are sweet potatoes, which will germinate when they are buried in spring.However, Shi Hong still felt that something was wrong, how many catties of sweet potatoes would have to be buried in such a full acre of land!

No matter what, it’s fine when you get it. Sweet potatoes are not good for food, but potatoes are okay. They seem to be easier to store. Just put them in a cool place away from light. This is a common history Hong still has it. After all, I have heard many times before that some people got food poisoning from eating sprouted potatoes.Therefore, Shi Hong asked people to go back and buy more sweet potatoes and try to plant them on the Zhuangzi, while continuing to ask people to inquire about potatoes and corn and other food crops.

In this regard, historians fully support it, and this matter does not cost much. It is enough to select a Zhuangzi, exempt the rent from that side, and let the tenants there try to plant.

Calculated in this way, it would take several years of preliminary work to achieve results, which made Shi Hong, who was originally excited, feel a little frustrated, but he quickly got rid of this emotion. He is still young and can afford it. .

There are others who can't afford it.Xue Baochai is almost [-] years old during Chinese New Year. Such a grown-up person, in later generations, would still be young, but in this age, she could almost be called an old lady.Unless there are special circumstances, such as the unfortunate death of a direct blood relative in the family and the need to observe filial piety, or for other reasons, such as Xue Baochai is almost like the leftover daughter of later generations, no one will take over, so they have to sell at a discount.

But Xue's family is also quite tragic. The Jia family has been hanging on and refused to let go. Every time Xue Wang went to Jia Wang's, Jia Wang's would push back and complain desperately, saying that she was still a mother. Yes, the old lady can't make the decision by herself in one day, it still depends on what the empress thinks.

Xue Wangshi has always been a low-level kid on Jia Wangshi's side since he was a child, and he was fooled by a few sentences, so he had to continue to wait when he turned around.It's not that she didn't think about finding another suitable one for her daughter, but even if Jia Baoyu is no good, he is still the son of the prince's mansion, and he has a noble concubine to support him.Mrs. Xue sneaked out outside, spent a lot of money, and persuaded the two uncles and wives of the Wang family to help, but not many people were willing to marry the Xue family. The most important thing is that none of them are as good as Jia. What about Baoyu!Those with fame have poor families, and those without fame have family backgrounds, but they are all bastards. In short, none of them are happy.She has always felt that Xue Baochai is very good, so naturally she is not willing to marry Xue Baochai to a merchant as well, and she is only willing to let Xue Baochai have the status of a royal wife in the future.However, the problem is, if there are such conditions, who would choose a business girl!Even if Wang Ziteng is Xue Baochai's uncle, the problem is that he is just an uncle, and his surname is not Xue.Besides, those who value Wang Ziteng's relationship, who doesn't know that the elder brother of Xue Baochai's family is a mud that can't support the wall. Don't borrow the strength of the Wang family, and was dragged into the mud by the Xue family .

Therefore, in the end, Xue Baochai was still hung on the tree of Jia Baoyu. Xue Baochai was also decisive, so she took all the effort to please the old lady. Like a maid, she waited by her aunt all day long. The words are better than the songs, and every day she praises Xue Baochai like a flower, so that Xue Baochai almost has the illusion that she is already the daughter-in-law of her aunt. Of course, the illusion is just an illusion.

What kind of temperament is Mrs. Wang? Don't look at it in other people's eyes. Mrs. Wang is always articulate, but in fact, she has a way of saying good things. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to deceive such a shrewd person as Wang Xifeng. , worked tirelessly, and filled his generous dowry into the bottomless pit of the housekeeper, but so far he couldn't even touch the key to the real warehouse. Madam Wang just pushed it out for things that required money, and Wang Xifeng was a strong one. , As a result, apart from looking good, he almost didn't fold all his dowry into it.

The various compliments for Xue Baochai actually meant the same thing. Although Mrs. Wang wished that Shi Taijun would die immediately, so as not to put pressure on her, she would have to stay low for so many years. .Especially on the issue of Jia Baoyu, Mrs. Wang is full of complaints. Even Mrs. Wang herself is extremely doting on Jia Baoyu, and she doesn't want him to suffer. But in her opinion, Jia Baoyu has developed his current temperament and doesn't like him. Reading books, and liking to tease the maids and sisters around her are all spoiled by Shi Taijun.That's why she hated Qing Wen, whom Shi Taijun placed next to Jia Baoyu, and looked at Xi Ren who surrendered to her early and was not considered outstanding. treatment.

The reason why Mrs. Wang still flatters Shi Taijun is entirely because of Shi Taijun's private house. When Shi Taijun got married, the historian family was not far behind even if it was not at its peak. In addition, she has been in power for many years in the Jia family, and her private house is extremely rich.These private houses are no more than ancestral property. Shi Taijun can make decisions by himself. When Shi Taijun's deadline comes, it will naturally be divided. Even if Mrs. Wang wishes to share them with herself, she also knows that this possibility is unlikely. Even her heart hurts, she still has to endure it.She made up her mind that Xue Baochai is now riding a tiger. The historian is no better than the Xue family. Even if she likes Xue Baochai more than Shi Xiangyun, Mrs. Wang knows that the historian is much better than the Xue family. The historian will never allow herself The first-line daughter of Jia Baoyu was dragged into an old girl for Jia Baoyu, so as long as the Shi family got impatient and chose another son-in-law for Shi Xiangyun, she would win.

Xue Baochai is not a fool, she can actually guess what Madam Wang is thinking, so now, besides procrastinating, is there any other way?Xue Baochai looked down on Shi Xiangyun, who was almost like a silly elder sister. Except for her family background, she had nothing to compare with herself. It was precisely because of this family background that she could only drag on so embarrassingly.Sometimes, she would think of Lin Daiyu. In the past, she thought Lin Daiyu was her biggest opponent, but in the end, she wanted to overwhelm Lin Daiyu, but he never thought of accepting the move. After Lin Ruhai returned to Beijing, she took her daughter After leaving, even if his life was not long, he tried his best to find Lin Daiyu the most suitable son-in-law.When she found out that Lin Daiyu had committed herself to Shi Hong, Xue Baochai felt discouraged for a while. She thought highly of herself, otherwise she would not have thought about participating in the small election and entering the palace to fight for wealth. My sisters are all married well, but unfortunately, their hearts are higher than the sky, but their luck is bad.Up to now, she can only hope that Jia Baoyu will really live up to his so-called rumors of provenance, and make her husband and wife more honorable in the future.

Shi Xiangyun is somewhat similar to Xue Baochai's situation. Shi Xiangyun is not too old, a few months younger than Lin Daiyu, but anyway, at this age, it is time to discuss marriage.The Jia family will not let go, and Shi Xiangyun cannot be dragged into a leftover woman.Although Mrs. Fang didn't like Shi Xiangyun enough, it was her responsibility after all. In addition to Shi Ding and Shi Nai's intentions, she didn't want to affect the marriage of her children because of the Jia family.

Mrs. Fang pondered for a while, and took Shi Xiangyun home directly. The reasons she used were also very reasonable. Shi Xiangyun was not young, and it was time to get married, but he hadn't learned what he should learn.Mrs. Fang really had nothing to say to the Jia family. She took Shi Xiangyun over and said that she would take care of her as her own granddaughter. However, what is the way to take care of the Jia family's granddaughter?A few years ago, I invited my husband to teach me some knowledge, but later I dismissed my husband, and my daughters did not raise with their aunt, nor did they find a foster mother to come back to help teach them pre-marital knowledge, but they learned needlework from a widowed sister-in-law, Li Wan.This is simply putting the cart before the horse!A girl from a big family is no better than a girl from a small family. It’s enough for a female celebrity to make a point of it. If a family doesn’t have a few needleworkers, even if they don’t, can’t the maids at home not be able to do needlework? My daughter-in-law do it herself?Thinking of this, Mrs. Fang was worried for a while. What kind of clothes, shoes and socks, purse and fan cover did Shi Xiangyun make for that phoenix egg in the Jia family? It is said that he stayed up until midnight doing needlework every day, and he was full of resentment, which made people look strange when they looked at the historian.God knows, she only wants to play during the day, and doesn't do it at night. Could it be that she will show the cloth head to the teacher who teaches female red the next day?

What makes Mrs. Fang even more uncomfortable is that Shi Xiangyun is obviously a problem with the world. She knows that she is using agate rings to curry favor with the big maids of the Jia family. Could it be that she makes some shoes for her uncles and aunts during the holidays? Is it difficult to treat socks as filial piety?However, Mrs. Fang has never seen it before. If you don’t pick up the birthday of the two of them, she will never think of coming back. The birthday gifts are all prepared indiscriminately after repeated reminders by the nurses around her. I don't do my best.If Shi Xiangyun marries in the past and harms the Jia family, it’s fine. This is the Jia family’s own crimes, but the Jia family is obviously still deadlocked over this matter. The Shi family has no patience. It’s possible that their own girls can’t get married, so they have to curry favor It's impossible to follow Jia's family.Therefore, Shi Nai became ruthless. Even if Mrs. Fang felt that this matter was very difficult, she still had to bring him back. Other things can be put aside first. While looking for candidates, she must first do the pre-marital Education has to be done.So, after Shi Xiangyun went back, he and Shi Xiangxue started to follow Mrs. Fang, learning to take care of some housework.
