All Hail Cousin Brother

When the emperor appointed Yaoyao county magistrate, the first sentence of the imperial edict was "House of loyalty and filial piety, accumulate goodness and virtue", and the boss kept saying that he also took goodness and virtue as a blow. Mrs. Yu suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Yu Zongzheng: "You say That's right, doing good deeds, and doing good deeds and filial piety, how can our family fall behind."

Yu Zongzheng was overjoyed: "Mother really knows righteousness."

As soon as he left, Madam Yu said weakly, "Help me back to the room."

Madam Liu helped the old lady up. The old lady took a few days to raise her spirits, but because of the words of the eldest master, she weakened again.

Back in the room, Mrs. Yu asked Madam Liu to take the four treasures of the study: "For Xie's family to ask for an official order, the emperor has a heart, but also depends on the boss's will."

If the boss does not ask for the seal, it is impossible for the emperor to seal Xie.

Madam Liu lowered her head, not daring to speak.

Mrs. Yu sighed softly: "From the heart of the dragon, I was blocked, and he refused to give up. It was rumored in the palace that the empress dowager wanted to raise silver for disaster relief, so she also guessed the intention of the emperor to seal Shaoyi county master. , I took the initiative to ask for an official appointment for the Xie family, to pave the way for the emperor, and to use the money of my daughter and my old lady to pave the way for my own future."

This is the end of the matter, and the boat is done.

The emperor and the eldest, one has intentions, the other has intentions, and the two hit it off.

Mrs. Yu looked down at the stationery laid out in front of her, and she seemed ten years older for a moment: "The boss has been fascinated by the desire for power, and the six relatives don't recognize it. I have to leave a way for my beauty. If I go, I won't let my graceful figure be controlled by an unkind and unrighteous thing."

Mother Xu lowered her head to study ink.

Madam Yu took up the pen and dipped in ink...

The writing of this letter stopped for more than half an hour, and there were more than three pages of paper. Mrs. Yu asked Madam Xu to take her own private seal and the big seal of the Yu residence, and print them one by one.

After she finished writing, she felt that it was not right, so she picked up the pen and wrote another letter.

The first letter, every word and every word, is a foresight for my granddaughter, and it is hard to describe.

In this second letter, every word was shocking. Madam Liu just glanced at it, then lowered her head quickly, not even daring to breathe.

After writing, he picked up the pen and wrote another letter.

The three letters in a row made Mama Liu feel a sense of ominousness. There was an illusion that the old lady was explaining the funeral in advance: "Old lady, why do you..."

Mrs. Yu sealed the three letters one by one with lacquer: "Yangkang is a disease. I don't know when to lie down on the ground, and I won't know the world."

Madam Liu moved her lips, trying to persuade her.

Madam Yu handed the letter to Madam Liu: "Give the letter to Chang'an, and let him quickly deliver it to Ling Huai. Ling Huai returned to Youzhou this morning, and he hasn't gone far yet."

Madam Liu took the letter: "Master Biao is here and will be back in two months at most. Why do you have to be so anxious to send the letter to him now?"

After writing the letter, Mrs. Yu seemed to take all her strength and leaned back on the chair: "The courtroom is changing rapidly, this letter won't be in Ling Huai's hands for a day, and I can't feel at ease for a day, so I can send it now, not even a moment later. "

Xie's house is beyond the reach of the whip, and it has thousands of family wealth, but it may not be able to protect it.

And Yufu, there is no one who deserves her trust.

Only Ling Huai, he has a very close relationship with King Wu Mu, and has a deep relationship with Yaoyao...

The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and Yue Ma along with the people from Zhuang Shang entered the house to give Zhuang Shang's boxing gift.

Yu Youyao asked again about the situation of the sweet potato planting.

Mother Yue said: "The vines that were cut earlier have also survived, and they are growing better than those grown by roots. After the beginning of summer, the village has hired people to cut the vines and plan to use the free land to cut potatoes. Rattan, not only the villagers in the capital, the young lady is cutting potato vines in villages all over the country."

This is more drought tolerant than sunbeans, yields large, and satiating.

Planting sweet potatoes in dry years is the best option.

The lady really is foresight.

At the beginning, in order to try to grow sweet potatoes, the young lady tried to grow sweet potatoes all over the country. She wanted to see the difference in yield, taste and variety of sweet potatoes in different regions, climates, and soils.

When you find that sweet potatoes do not pick fertile soil and are suitable for sandy land, prepare to plant them in large quantities.

Yu Youyao was relieved: "Mommy, pay more attention to the movement of Yaxing. If there is suitable land, buy it. It doesn't matter if the land is thinner, and sweet potatoes don't pick fertile soil."

She has no shortage of money in her hands, and it is safest to buy fields and land at any time.

After the turbulent times, a hundred wastes are waiting to be rebuilt, and agriculture is vigorously promoted to stabilize the country. The first national policy of the country is always to return the fields to the people.

Even if the new dynasty wants to acquire land, it is not free.

If I grow sweet potatoes on an acre of land, maybe in the second half of the year, the famine will be alleviated.

When it comes to buying the fields, Mother Yue will naturally not stop her: "An experienced old farmer in Zhuangzi said that the best time to plant sweet potatoes is around the Dragon Boat Festival, and it is estimated that they can be planted until the end of May, and it is still too late to buy some more fields. "

Yu Youyao nodded and said again: "If there are excess potato vines, I will distribute them to the people in the nearby villages and tell them that this is a new variety brought back from overseas and successfully tested. The crops must be large, and the leaves, stems, and vines can be eaten. They all have private plots at home, or the thin land they reclaimed by themselves. If you want to plant them, you can plant them yourself. Not only my Zhuangzi in Beijing, but also all over the country Zhuangzi, it's all like this."

Grandma Yue nodded: "Alright, sweet potato vines can be grown from a single plant, and I definitely can't finish planting them. As long as I want to plant them, I will distribute some back to grow them myself."

After all, sweet potato is a new species. No one has ever planted it before in the Zhou Dynasty. People may not waste a little field in their family to plant a new species that they have never planted before.

However, it is not a secret that the lady grows sweet potatoes on a large scale. After all, it is the Zhuangzi of the lady of the official family. There must be more people willing to follow the trend.

The lady is also very virtuous.

Hearing that there were a lot of extra sweet potato vines, Yu Youyao breathed a sigh of relief: "The people went into the mountains early to find food, and in June and July, there are not many things to eat in the mountains, there are many sweet potato vines, and the people You can eat potato leaves to satisfy hunger, and in August and September, when the drought breaks out, sweet potatoes can be harvested, which can alleviate the famine to some extent.” Having said this, she felt a little regretful: “It would be great if there were more sweet potato vines. "

Mother Yue shook her head: "This is also impossible."

Sweet potato is not a species of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The number that can be obtained by merchant ships is very limited. After two years of cultivation and trial planting, it is not easy to grow so many.

If it wasn't for the young lady who proposed cutting potato vines, the old farmers in the village thought it was feasible, how could it be planted on a large scale now?
