There is Room For the Poor Daughter

On the tenth day of August, Wei Qi rushed to Taohua Village.

Caiju and Dongli saw that the leader of the imperial guard had arrived in person, and they knew the emperor's attention, and immediately reported what they knew.

After hearing this, Wei Qi didn't say anything, and quickly went to see Granny Gu and Gu Jian: "Meet the two old masters."

Granny Gu raised her hand to get him up, and then asked, "Is Xiao Wu okay?"

Wei Qi replied respectfully: "Master is all right, old lady, please relax. When you came out, the master repeatedly explained that the two old masters must take care of your health."

Granny Gu smiled and nodded: "Xiaojian and I are doing well. When you go back, tell Xiaowu not to let him remember us. He can't take care of the important affairs of the country. Don't get tired."

Wei Qi nodded.

Gu Jian saw that his sister was almost done talking, so he asked, "Did you bring the seeds of the pith grass?"

Wei Qi nodded quickly: "Bring it."

Gu Jian stood up: "Come with me." After speaking, he walked towards the pharmacy.

Wei Qi bowed to Granny Gu, then quickly followed.

Soon, Wei Qi saw the porcelain pot in the pharmacy that was said to have been planted with pith grass.

Seeing that it was too ordinary to fit in an ordinary porcelain pot, Wei Qi took a small handful of soil and put it under his nose to smell it. He was no stranger to the smell, it was ordinary mountain forest soil.

Wei Qi couldn't help showing a look of doubt on his face: "Old man, can this really grow meridian grass?"

Gu Jian nodded: "Don't ask so much, what about the seeds?"

Wei Qi quickly took out the pith grass seeds from his arms.

Seeing Gu Jian burying the seeds in the soil like beans, Wei Qi couldn't help but say, "That's it? Don't do anything else? Like watering, fertilizing or something?"

Gu Jian shook his head: "I asked about rice flowers, and this is how she grows them." Then, he took out a small book from his arms, "But the temperature and humidity in this room need to be controlled."

Wei Qi glanced at the small book and asked, "This is?"

Gu Jian: "This is a record of the meridian plant of the rice flower, and we will do it according to what she wrote on it."

Wei Qi hurriedly said, "Master, can I take a look?"

Gu Jian handed the small book to Wei Qi.

Wei Qi read it carefully several times, but didn't see anything special, and then returned it to Gu Jian: "Master, I don't understand the matter of planting herbs, and I will ask you to worry about it later. During this time, I will I'll stay here, if you need anything, please give me whatever you want."

Gu Jian: "I'll watch it carefully."

He also hopes to grow the meridian grass, not to mention anything else, if he really wants to grow it, Xiao Wu will probably come over in person.

He knew in his heart that his sister really wanted to see Xiao Wu and Xiao Jiu.

Wei Qi was not qualified to live in Taohua Nunnery, so he rented a small farmhouse in Taohua Village.

Now that it is autumn, the surrounding villagers and merchants from other places in Taohua Village often come to buy the crops and seeds in Daohua Zhuangzi, so he is not conspicuous.

Seeing that villagers came to buy grain from time to time, Wei Qi couldn't help pulling one of the villagers and asked, "The things produced by Zhuangzi of the Yan family are so good?"

The villagers nodded quickly and said with a smile: "This eldest brother is also from other places. Let me tell you, the things produced by this Yanjiazhuangzi not only taste good, but also have high yields."

"In the past, our Sha County was the poorest county in Ningmen Prefecture, but since we planted the grains promoted by Yan Zhifu, now everyone can have enough to eat."

"This year, my family bought watermelon seeds from Zhuangzi of Yan's family. I sold the watermelon in the summer. Not only did I have Yu Niang, but I also saved some savings. Now I have hope for life."

Saying that, the villagers showed a proud look on their faces: "In the past, people from other places rarely came to us, but now, there are many caravans entering and leaving the county every day, and now people from outside want to move here. Haven't had a chance yet."

"Brother, I advise you to buy more seeds and go back to planting. This time I will buy more. If the rain is good next year and the grain is sold, maybe the family will be able to build two more houses."

"Oh, the people from Taoshui Village are here. I won't tell you. If I'm behind them, I won't be able to go back until it's dark."

Seeing the villagers who ran far away, Wei Qi was a little amused, but the changes in Peach Blossom Village were really great. When they came here last year, the villagers in this village had a very difficult life.

But nowadays, most of the old houses have been renovated, and there are many more villagers, and most of them have smiles on their faces.

What the emperor said is right, Master Yan is indeed a good official, at least he is really solving problems for the people.

After walking around Peach Blossom Village, Wei Qi disguised himself and set off for Ningmen Mansion.

The emperor told him to investigate the process of the eldest girl of the Yan family's cultivation of meridian, and he had to investigate it in person.

Yan House.

Knowing that Xiao Yeyang and his two older brothers were going out tomorrow, Daohua handed over the things prepared for them to Yan Wentao: "Third brother, there are ginseng pills and drugs in it, and now your inner kung fu is just beginning. To start, you must be careful when you go out on business."

Saying that, he looked at Yan Wenkai.

"Fourth brother, it's not a shame to run away when you meet someone you can't beat. It's called a man who knows the current affairs of the world. Don't rush forward stupidly. If you make this mistake again, I'll be called Xiao. Ye Yang won't take you on errands in the future."

Hearing this, Yan Wentao nodded in agreement.

Yan Wenkai was in a hurry, because he knew that Ye Yang really listened to his sister's words, and hurriedly assured: "I will definitely not do this, eldest sister, don't talk nonsense in front of Ye Yang."

Daohua hummed: "It depends on your performance." After speaking, she looked at Yan Wentao, "Third brother, remember to supervise fourth brother."

Yan Wentao smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely look at him. As long as he dares to mess around, I will tell you when I come back."

Yan Wenkai snorted: "Third brother, I won't give you a chance to make a snitch."

Immediately, Daohua took the food box from Wang Man'er's hand: "Third brother, give this food box to Xiao Yeyang."

Yan Wenkai hurriedly said, "Big sister, what did you do for Ye Yang?"

Daohua: "It's the whole potato feast that our family ate at noon. I kept a little bit of each for him." As he said that, he smiled, "If there are fresh ingredients, of course I have to give it to him to taste."

Yan Wenkai smiled and said, "This potato tastes really good."

Yan Wentao took over the words: "The most important thing is the high yield." He could imagine that the yield per mu was as high as ten stone or more. If this was reported to the court, the uncle's performance in the Ningmen Mansion for the past three years would definitely be stable.

Perhaps, after the eldest uncle's term expires this time, he will be able to be transferred to Beijing.

In the Jinlingwei office, Xiao Yeyang was arranging the specific matters of this outing. When he saw Yan Wentao coming with a food box, he immediately put down what he was doing: "Daohua gave it to me?"

Yan Wentao nodded, seeing the information pushed everywhere on the table, knowing that Xiao Yeyang hadn't eaten lunch, he said, "The food is still hot, you can eat it first."

Defu quickly took the food box and quickly placed it on the table. Seeing that the dishes delivered today were never seen before, he immediately smiled: "It's still Miss Yan who remembers the master, this is a fresh dish, immediately It was sent to the master."

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang was very happy. He picked up his chopsticks and started eating. After taking a few bites, he asked, "What kind of dish is this?"

Yan Wentao: "Potatoes."

Xiao Yeyang: "Is that what Sun Changze helped bring back from the north?"

Yan Wentao nodded, and then talked about the per mu yield of potatoes.

Xiao Yeyang listened, was silent for a while, and then said to Yan Wentao with a smile: "In the past, the daughter of a powerful family in the capital was particularly good at planting flowers, and people jokingly called her the Flower Fairy. You said that rice flowers are so good at growing food, we should What do you call her? Grass Fairy?" After speaking, he laughed out loud.

Yan Wentao also laughed.

Don't say, this little sister in his family really knows how to grow things.
