Two days after the Dragon Boat Festival, Jiang Wenyuan's imperial edict for the old Hu family came down.

Old Hu was holding the four-rank Gongren's imperial costume issued by the court, and tears rolled down one by one with excitement.After suffering for a lifetime, when she was old, she enjoyed the blessings of her descendants and became a noble wife.

Everyone urged her to go indoors and try to change.

Old Hu couldn't resist, so he let his daughters-in-law push him in.

When the well-dressed old lady walked into the hall surrounded by several daughters-in-law, everyone looked straight at her.

Old man Jiang just came back from digging in the field, and the hoe was still on his shoulder.Seeing this scene, the eyeballs almost fell off.

The daughters-in-law teased him: "Father, does my mother look good?"

The old man smiled naively: "It looks good! It makes me look like a beggar." If he hadn't slept together for decades, he would have hardly recognized that this was his wife.

The old man was stunned by what he said, which made the children and grandchildren laugh.

He didn't mind, he just put down the hoe, leaned close to the old lady, looked up and down, looked and looked, looked and looked.

Old Hu squinted at him: "What's the matter, I don't know you anymore?"

The old man glared at her: "You are my wife, how can I not recognize you?"

He stretched out his hands and scratched his head, and said embarrassingly: "It's just that I'm much younger now, like a wife of a wealthy family. I'm standing next to you. If you don't know, you think I'm your father."

All women like to be praised for their youth. Although the old man's love words are a bit earthy, Old Hu's ears are very useful.

She was immediately proud: "That's not true. I think back then, the old woman was a flower in all directions, but she married a fool like you. After dozens of years of grinding, she is too old to look at now."

"Not old! Now is also a flower!"

"What flowers?"

"Just, just, then... what..." Old man Jiang was at a loss for words, so he could only ask his sons for help with his eyes.However, his unfilial children and grandchildren waited to watch the show, pretending not to know it.

Jiang Yuqing had no choice but to save the scene, and secretly pointed to the gate.

The old man Jiang was so blessed that he blurted out: "Trumpet flower".

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Hu immediately pulled his face down and stared at him expressionlessly.Those eyes, as if they were going to tear him apart, made old man Jiang shudder fiercely.

The sons and daughters-in-law covered their mouths, all of them were holding back their laughter so much that their bodies were shaking.

Jiang Yuqing covered his face with his hands, looking frustrated.Can I take back what I just praised for his level.My dear grandpa, I am referring to the peonies blooming on both sides of the gate steps.You can actually look far away and see the trumpet flowers blooming on the outer wall of Shizhang.

Should I praise you for your good eyesight, or should I say that you are a perfect steel straight.That's it, you'll have to get beaten up if you change someone else!

The master of the realm said that if I don't support the wall, I will obey you.

In the end, Mrs. Hu was not willing to beat him up.Big belly forgave old man Jiang.

In the whole life of husband and wife, he has never said anything nice with that mouth.

Thinking about it again, the son was obviously raised by the husband and wife together, but she was the only one who got the imperial order, and he was still white.Thinking of it this way, Old Hu felt strangely balanced.

Ever since the old Hu family got the patent, the old ladies in the village looked at her with envy even more.Don't look at the old lady's calm face, she is quite useful in her heart.

From time to time, I would take my granddaughter out for a walk or two, and after receiving a basketful of compliments, I would go home contentedly.

Jiang Yuqing didn't know why at first, but after more times, he understood.

Oh, her grandma has become so unreasonable that she wants to be praised, and she will be ashamed to see it.

It's not easy for the old lady in her life, and now she only has a few hobbies left, so let her be happy.

The days passed day by day in the sound of joy (chicken) flying (flying) laughter (dog) language (jumping), and soon came to the middle of May.

In the field, the watermelons that have been vined have already bloomed into small yellow flowers, and there are even many small green fruits that are as big as fingertips, which are very chubby and cute.

After a few days, when the flowers are fully bloomed, the fruit can be combed, so as to ensure that each watermelon can get sufficient nutrition and ensure the quality.

Afraid that people or livestock would be overwhelmed, Jiang Yuqing specially asked his grandfather to send people to guard the melon fields every day, and pull the grass by the way.

As for the sweet potato seedling fields, the cuttings had already been distributed to the common people at the end of April.

They are all alive now and growing well.

The growers regard the only one-acre sweet potato field as an eyeball, and even spontaneously formed a patrol team, working three shifts a day, and guarding twelve hours a day, for fear that someone would steal it or be called by mistake. Huo Huo gave up the bastard with short eyes.

As for the twenty Habayashi guards, they were originally going to return to Beijing to return to their mission after finishing their mission.

Jiang Wenyuan went to Beijing with a copy, forced them to stay, and transferred them to Dazhuangzi to guard the rice.

Today, the rice grown in Dazhuangzi is growing very well.

The long-term workers said that they had never seen rice that grew so well. The seedlings were thick and strong, with many sprouts, which was rare to see.

Jiang Yuqing had also been there twice, and told his father to keep a close eye on it, and if there were any signs of insects, tell her right away, so she could find a way to prevent it.

The days are going on step by step.Miracle doctor Lu would take Jiang Yuqing up the mountain to collect medicine from time to time.The old man said that it would be a waste of good herbs to leave mountains full of good herbs.

Gradually, the villagers of Xijindu also knew about it.

Jiang Yuqing actually worshiped an old genius doctor as a master to study medicine, and this old genius doctor lived in Jiang's house.

Ever since, in line with the principle of seeking near and not far, people in the family came to seek medical treatment from time to time.

There will be a lot of people coming, so it will be inconvenient.

With a wave of his hand, the old man simply opened up the two wing rooms near the gate as soon as he entered the hospital, and made a small consultation room and pharmacy.

When Miracle Doctor Qiu treated the villagers, he asked Tuanzi to watch.

She even asked her to take the pulse by herself, distinguish the cause of the pulse condition, and then prescribe a suitable prescription.

According to the prescriptions given by his apprentices, Miracle Doctor Qiu pointed out the errors in her syndrome differentiation and the lack of adjuvant medicines for monarchs and ministers one by one.

She already has the foundation of her previous life, and with the hand-in-hand teaching of Miracle Doctor Qiu, the two phases are integrated and mastered, and she has made rapid progress.

Happily, Miracle Doctor Qiu often praises her parents behind her back that she is a wonderful talent.I really wish I could kowtow to the patriarch on the spot.

In short, Bian Que Valley not only has successors, but maybe it can't be improved to a higher level.

Is Miracle Doctor Qiu the kind of person who gets a treasure and hides it by himself?

of course not!

He also wrote letters to his disciples and grandchildren, and even the disciples of the entire Bianque Valley.

Everyone talked about how smart and cute his new baby apprentice was, and how talented he was in the medical field.

Of course, Jiang Yuqing was completely unaware of this matter.

As a result, a long time later, when Jiang Yuqing was walking outside, she was inexplicably challenged by doctors from various sources. Although she had never failed, it was enough to make her bald.

Later, when she knew that all these troubles were brought on by her frightening master, she was so angry that she wished she could run home immediately, tie up the old man and beat him up.

In mid-June, Jiang Yuqing came back from inspecting the fields and said that the watermelons could be harvested in two or three days.The adults and children of the Jiang family immediately became excited.

On June [-]th, everyone in the Jiang family got up early, including Dr. Qiu and several agricultural officials.

In addition, dozens of people, including maids, women, and servants, took carrot baskets, straw, and asked someone to weave nets out of straw, and drove several carriages and mule carts to the melon fields.

More than 20 acres of melon fields, looking out to a piece of green, full of big round watermelons, is very shocking, and the joy of harvest lingers in the hearts of every Jiang family.

Jiang Yuqing went to the field first, tapped among the watermelons with his fingers, finally chose a fully ripe one, and motioned for his father to pick it off.

Jiang Wenyuan weighed the watermelon in his hand, the guy weighed at least seventeen or eight catties, he was really a big guy.Carry it on the ridge of the field, cut it open with a knife, green skin and red inlay, a sweet smell straight to the tip of the nose, making people drool.

Jiang Wenyuan quickly divided the watermelon into several pieces, and each person shared a piece.Eat it in your mouth, and you will be satisfied in an instant.It's really sandy, sweet, and sweaty.The heat that had just risen disappeared in an instant.

With so many people, one melon is far from enough, so Jiang Yuqing picked a few more to let everyone have a good time.

It is a major event that the Jiang family has grown a tribute watermelon that can only be found in other countries.Especially when there is a Secretary of Agriculture living in the house, of course it cannot be hidden from above.

Therefore, this first batch of melons had to be sent to the capital to pay tribute to His Majesty the Emperor.

Because of the long distance, the watermelons for the tribute cannot be fully ripe, they must be half-ripe.Although such watermelons are not fully ripe and sweet, they are durable.

Because it is the first time to grow watermelon, how to tell whether the watermelon is ripe or not, apart from Jiang Yuqing, only Jiang Wenyuan has experience.

Jiang Yuqing's is because he grows a lot, and the latter is purely because he eats a lot. He will habitually tap the melon before eating every time, and eat it out of experience.

Therefore, the heavy responsibility of selecting melons and leading apprentices fell on the father and daughter.

Each of them brought three apprentices, who taught them how to pick melons, and helped carry the others. They covered each of them with a dense net, and when loading the baskets, they were separated by layers of straw.

After the baskets are put on the carriage, they are stuffed with straw, and must be well protected to avoid damage during transportation.

A total of three truckloads of melons were selected for this batch. After loading the trucks, they were immediately sent to Beijing at high speed.

Among them, two chariots were dedicated to the emperor.

The other car gave Li Deshun a basket and Jing Yan a basket, which were sent by Tuanzi.

Give another basket to Zhen Guo Gongfu and Qin Yu a basket, these two families are good friends of Jiang Wenyuan.

When passing through Fucheng, give a basket to Li Zheng, the magistrate of Lingzhou, and Luo Ren, the governor of Lingzhou.

These two are Jiang Wenyuan's immediate superiors, and it is impossible to bypass them when sending things to the capital.

It is said that there are three cars, but in fact there are only sixty in total.The watermelon is really too big, a large radish basket half a person's height can only hold five baskets, and a cart can only hold four baskets.

After sending away this batch of melons, the Jiang family picked another batch of fully ripe ones and distributed them to relatives and friends.

For example, Lu's natal family and Lin's natal family each gave two baskets, and Jiang Wenxi's master and Zhu's natal uncle gave one basket each.

Xiri and Jiang Wenyuan made good friends, classmates, county school teachers and good mansions, etc., all of which were given away.

In addition, Mr. Jiang's family study also sent a basket, and every family in the village, regardless of the same surname or foreign surname, gave one, which can be described as extremely generous.

When I sent them, I told them that if they wanted to, they could keep their own seeds.

As a result, the villagers of Xijindu praised the Jiang family's benevolence and righteousness, and Jiang Wenyuan's reputation was further improved.
