Jia She stared at Jiang Zining, as if he saw something heinous.

Jiang Zining sensed that Master She was angry with him, and looked at Jia Lian very puzzled.

Jia Lian shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

Jia She took a deep breath, tried his best to calm down his anger, and said to Jiang Zining, "Nephew, you are old, yes, you are young and frivolous, it's okay to make small mistakes, but you must never do something like a child , this is a serious crime that will be struck by the sky!"

After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he still glared at Jiang Zining fiercely with his bull's eyeballs.

Jiang Zining nodded in bewilderment, when did he become extinct! ?

Jia She snorted coldly, rolled his eyes at him a few times, and left angrily.

Jiang Zining was puzzled for a while, then asked Jia Lian, "What's wrong with your master, he's not happy just because I said something like a snot-nosed ghost?"

"Don't worry about him, he's crazy." Jia Lian didn't care about Jia She's words at all, because he never said anything serious.

……

The boat arrived at the ferry soon, and people from Rongfu had come to meet it.

Jia Lian ordered seven or eight young servants to escort Jiang Zining back, in case Jiang Qingshan would have someone behind him.

Jiang Zining was so grateful that he thanked him again and again, and was finally urged to leave by Jia Amnesty.

Jia Amnesty finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the man had left, and stretched out his hand to grab Jia Lian's ear and reprimand him.

Jia Lian took the opportunity to grab Jia She's arm and help him into the carriage.

Jia Amnesty moved his mouth, looked around at the servants, held back his anger, and got into the car.

After the father and son returned to Rongfu, they immediately went to see Jiamu.

Jia Lian, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min brought things to Jia Mu.Jade ware, lacquerware, straw mats, tea leaves and brocade are all top-quality Yangzhou specialties, which are rarely available in the capital.

Jia's mother happily picked two pieces, and then divided them between the two rooms.

"Boss deserves some credit for going to Yangzhou this time, please share more."

Jia's mother distributed [-]% of the jade, lacquerware, brocade and other things to Jia Amnesty, the rest to the second room, and the remaining snacks and tea were shared equally among the houses.

Mrs. Wang pursed her lips and smiled, she said nothing honestly, but her eyes ruthlessly gouged out the two boxes containing the jade articles, both of which were worth a lot of money!

"Tell me about Min'er's situation quickly?" Mother Jia asked with a smile.

Jia She quickly took the initiative to boast: "You don't know, when my son arrived a few years ago, she was so sick that she couldn't even get up from the bed, and she was tired of talking. Seeing that she was bedridden every day, she was bored, and she was able to live She was lifeless, and refused to take medicine and food, so she offered to tell her a story... Now that she is able to go down to the ground, she also said that when she recovers, she will come and see the old lady!"

Mother Jia patted her chest in relief, "Oh, my sweetheart, she can be better than anything else, which can be regarded as a relief to my old bone."

Everyone rejoiced with the old lady, saying that Jia Min is like Jia's mother, so he must be blessed and will live a long life.Only Mrs. Wang made an apologetic smile while tugging at the handkerchief in her hand.

The atmosphere in the room was joyous, with constant laughter.Baoyu followed along to join in the fun and ran to Jia Lian to ask for gifts.

Jia's mother cared most about her precious jade, so she immediately set her eyes on Jia Lian.Everyone then looked over.

Jia Lian smiled, "I've grown a lot taller, and I've grown a year. I remember you should go to school at your age. Why are you at home today?"

As soon as Baoyu heard about reading, his head drooped immediately, and he lost all the newly formed affection for Jia Lian.The little face turned dark, and he turned his head and hid in Jia Mu's arms, moaning.

Jia's mother held Baoyu in a strange way, and scolded Jia Lian with a smile: "Your brother just had a stomachache this morning, and he heard that you were back, so he didn't go to school. It's hard to rest for a day, and you don't have to read books. You are happy, so you mention it." This one. But you monkey didn’t bring him a gift, so you want to prevaricate?”

"Bring it, no one can forget him if you forget it," Jia Lian glanced at Baoyu with a smile, clapped his hands, and asked someone to bring up his gift.

As soon as Baoyu heard that it was "lifting", she became happy and stretched her neck expectantly to look at the door. Sure enough, she saw the two women carrying the box and entering the door.

"Before preparing the gift, I specifically asked Uncle Lin for his opinion." Jia Lian's words made everyone present even more curious about the contents of the box.

Baoyu excitedly ran down to see it in person.

The box was opened, full of books, and exuded a faint scent of ink.

Baoyu saw that there were all kinds of articles by famous writers, all of which were read for the purpose of obtaining official careers, and it was a headache to read them.Baoyu frowned suddenly, unhappy, and looked at Jia Mu with tears in his eyes.

Jia's mother raised her hand to call Baoyu, and stared at Jia Lian with stern eyes. Just about to speak, Jia Lian spoke first.

"These are all collected after I took the trouble to ask my uncle's reading list. There is only one box here, and there are ten boxes outside. I thought that since my uncle was familiar with these books when he was young, he went to Tanhualang in high school. His intelligence will definitely be the same in the future. Everyone in our family knows that Baoyu is the most intelligent and gifted at reading. Unlike my second brother, I am so stupid that I can only help the housekeeper with no promise. That's all."

When Jia Mu heard that Jia Lian treated Baoyu with such care and had such high expectations for Baoyu, she was immediately happy.

"Lian'er can tell, our Baoyu may surpass his uncle Tanhualang in the future!" Jia's mother was so happy, she rubbed Baoyu into her arms happily, and stroked his head, "Our Baoyu It is intelligence, and in the future, you will surely be able to shine on the lintel, get an official position in the imperial examination, and become a top scholar."

When Baoyu saw that Mother Jia didn't help her, tears welled up in her eyes, and she must have bowed her head completely.

Mrs. Wang dragged Baoyu to her side, and said carefully: "Don't say anything else, what your second brother said is reasonable. From today on, you must read and recite the books your second brother brought back for you. At home, you can hope to be successful in studying, but you have to live up to it, and show me and your father the face."

Baoyu nodded embarrassingly, not daring to resist.

Jia Lian saw that it was almost done, so he went back.As soon as he entered the courtyard, he rolled up his sleeves to look at the peony seedlings that had sprouted. There were more than [-] peony seedlings that had grown well.Jia Lian ordered Meiguo to transplant the seedlings and divide them into pots.

The next day, Jia Lian summoned the stewards of various villages to reconfirm the planting plan he had assigned before he left, and took two bags of potatoes to the nearest village.

The steward opened the bag and took out round things that looked like sweet potatoes but were rounder than sweet potatoes. There were still many bud eyes on them, and small sprouts grew.

"Second Master, this is?"

"Potatoes, referred to as potatoes, I bought from two Dutchmen." Jia Lian picked up a small knife and told them to cut the potatoes according to the bud holes on them, and then instructed them how to bury them in the soil.

Jia Lian held the potato in his hand cherishingly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.In the summer the two Dutchmen would bring more potatoes.This thing is cold-resistant and high-yielding, especially suitable for alpine areas with low yields where naked oats can only grow, and can effectively solve the problem of food and clothing in poor areas.

This year is a poor year, and many people in impoverished areas have not enough to eat, and they have been exiled to Yangzhou to do coolies.If there is no harvest in a famine year, the situation will be a hundred times or even a thousand times worse than it is now.As an agricultural professor who came to this different world, if he couldn't even solve the basic food and clothing problems of the people here, it would be a failure.

The steward didn't quite understand Erye Lian's explanation, but since it was Erye's order, there must be a reason for him, so he kept it in mind, so he would take good care of these 'round sweet potatoes'.

Jia Lian was going to visit the farm again, but Jiang Zining suddenly sent someone over, urging him to come over to the house urgently.

Jia Lian thought that something was wrong with Jiang Zining's affairs, so he rushed over immediately.

"Hey, Brother Lian!" Jiang Zining hurried over to greet him.

Jia Lian looks at him.

Jiang Zining leaned closer to Jia Lian's ear, "I told the old man about the Yangzhou incident last night, and it worked out well, but there is another matter right now. There is a distinguished guest at home, and I want to see you by name."

Jia Lian was not surprised to hear that Jiang Zining said he was the fourth prince, so he happily entered the door to pay his respects.

"Jia Lian, I have admired your name for a long time!" Yin Zhen gritted his teeth and smiled, he had been waiting for this 'talent' for a long time.

Jia Lian heard that there was irony in the prince's words, so he said "I dare not", and said nothing more.

Seeing that he still has a temper, Yinzhen laughed, and asked: "Do you remember me?"

"I remember." In fact, Jia Lian recognized Yin Zhen when he entered the room, and was surprised in his heart.It turned out that the fourth prince who deliberately spread the news to 'calculate' turned out to be the noble son who begged for water at that time.After delivering the water at that time, he deliberately attracted the attention of the other party, considering that the expensive circle in the capital is so big, and it might be 'useful' to meet again in the future.I didn't expect God to help him this time, 'useful' plus 'more useful'.

Yinzhen laughed, sighed for fate, asked Jia Lian a few words, and left happily.

"It's weird, I wanted to see you by name, but you left so soon?" Jiang Zining wondered.

Jia Lian smiled, and understood a little bit in her heart that when a big leader appoints a key person, he always has to go through several inspections before making a decision.

It doesn't matter, he has a lot of patience, no matter who is in power, it is impossible to ignore the issue of "agriculture".

Marquis Pingyuan insisted on staying with Jia Lian for dinner.

Jia Lian guessed that Marquis Pingyuan wanted his testimony, so he confessed his experience while drinking with him.

Marquis Pingyuan got angry a long time ago, but when he heard Jia's story, his face was still flushed with anger, and he slapped the corner of the table with his palm, "It's fortunate that you and Master Lin handled this matter well, otherwise, how could I treat the big man under the nine springs?" Son, tell me! Little friend, please be respected by the old man!"

Jia Lian hurriedly supported Ping Yuanhou, "We didn't do anything, the real victim is your grandson, what matters is what you should do!"

Hearing Jia Lian's reminder, Marquis Pingyuan gritted his teeth bitterly and said, "This old man will never spare Jiang Qingshan!"

Hou Pingyuan called his son by his first name, which shows the depth of his hatred.

After all, it was a family matter, Jia Lian couldn't ask any more questions, so he said goodbye after a few words of forgiveness.

As soon as Jia Lian got home, Xing'er specially came to report: "I found out that all the rice planted in the second wife's village this year is the seeds brought from Jinling."
