A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best

The head of the village nodded slightly, somewhat moved, and quickly wrote the document. Li Xiaoxiao handed the silver to him and told him to wait until tomorrow to go to the county government office to register it. Only after the registration would the silver be given to the seller.

The family talked for a long time in the evening. Everyone was very excited. Having a house and a field would mean a complete family, which they had been looking forward to for too long.

The next day, the whole village was in an uproar because Li Xiaoxiao's family wanted to buy six acres of good farmland at once, but it cost fifty-four taels of silver.

How many people work their entire lives and only have a few acres of land. They have seen how poor Li Xiaoxiao's family has become, and it is simply unbelievable that it has only been such a short time.

Soon two voices emerged in the village. One was led by Aunt Hua, who made up all kinds of stories about Li Xiaoxiao. The other was led by Aunt Huang, who spread the word that Li Xiaoxiao was self-reliant and had led his family to wealth.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't care at all. There was no need to pay attention. Let them say whatever they wanted.

Going to the county government to register was actually to apply for a formal land deed recognized by the government. The six acres of land then officially belonged to Li Xiaoxiao's family.

The fee for land deeds is based on the area of ​​the land, at 20 wen per acre, so six acres of land would cost 120 wen.

After coming out of the county government office, Li Xiaoxiao carefully read the contents of the deed, and after confirming that it was correct, he carefully folded it and put it away.

Once they had the land, they began to think about growing crops. Here, they grow two crops a year, wheat and corn. Ancient grain varieties have not been improved, and the yield per mu is very low, so Li Xiaoxiao wondered if she could grow something else.

She didn't know much about growing crops. She had never grown it before, but had only seen it on TV. She thought it shouldn't be difficult.

What should she plant? After thinking for a long time, Li Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered something. She remembered that when she went to the county town to buy oil for the first time, the waiter in the oil shop said that he had never heard of soybeans. Could she plant soybeans?

The yield of soybeans is not very high, but there are many ways to eat them and they have high nutritional value, such as soaked bean sprouts, tofu, soy milk, soybean oil, fermented soybeans, etc.

The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to her. The soybeans in her space were all full and plump, making them perfect as seeds. The soybean yield was about 400 kilograms. If all six acres of land were planted with seeds, the yield would be 2,400 kilograms.

Her family certainly couldn't finish it, and she could make it into food and sell it, perhaps earning her first pot of gold in ancient times.

As for the source of soybean seeds, the Jiunv Mountain winds for thousands of miles, so it is normal to find some rare seeds inside if you accidentally get lost.

In this way, Li Xiaoxiao went into the mountains again. He couldn't afford to encounter wolves every time as it was too fantastic. So when he went down the mountain, his backpack was filled with soybeans and he held two pheasants in each hand, nothing else.

When Sun saw the soybeans in Li Xiaoxiao's backpack, she asked what they were. Each soybean was golden and round, and looked very beautiful. It looked like food.

"Mom, I don't know what this is. I saw it by chance when I went up the mountain today. It was a big piece of it. It might have been ripe but no one picked them, so they fell to the ground. I tasted one and it was edible, so I carried a basket down the mountain." Li Xiaoxiao and Sun explained.

When Sun heard this, she was very happy. What her family lacked most now was food. The harvest was poor this year and every household was short of food.

It was already evening when Li Xiaoxiao went down the mountain. Before going up the mountain, he had already told Sun that he might come back late today.

She said that she picked up these soybeans from the mountain, but in fact, she took them out from the space. If someone asked her to pick them up from the mountain again, where would she find them? So, she said that she was lost and came across them by accident, and she couldn't find them again.

"Are there any more on the mountain? Let's go pick some more." Sun looked excited.

"Mom, I got lost in the mountains today, and accidentally came to a valley. The terrain there is relatively flat, and there are a lot of these things. I probably won't be able to find them if I go again. These are enough for us to eat." Sure enough, she guessed it right.

"Xiaoxiao is already tired after carrying so much down the mountain. These are enough." Li Dahai was afraid that his daughter would be too tired. It was also the first time for him to see soybeans and he was very curious.

"Xiao Xiao, do you know what this is called?"

"I don't know. It's yellow. Why don't we call it soybean?" Li Xiaoxiao pretended to think about it seriously.

"This is a good name." Li Dahai nodded.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Li Xiaoxiao expressed her idea of ​​planting soybeans, and she wanted to plant all six acres.

Now Sun and Li Dahai were no longer calm.

Farming is a big deal. For many years, their village has been planting corn after the wheat harvest. Soybeans look good, but no one has ever planted them before. Not to mention the yield, they don't know whether they can be planted in this season or how to plant them. Without any experience, it is really too risky.

Their reactions were pretty much what Li Xiaoxiao had expected.

"Dad, Mom, I have thought about your concerns, but I think we should still give it a try. How about this, I will try to make some food with soybeans. If it tastes good, we will plant it. If it doesn't taste good, we won't plant it." Seeing that she couldn't convince them with words, Li Xiaoxiao had to change her tactics and conquer them with taste. With her cooking skills, she believed that there would be no problem.

"You still don't trust me? I only have one idea, which is to make our family's life better and better."

Seeing his daughter so persistent, Li Dahai had no choice but to agree. The money to buy the land was earned by Xiaoxiao, so she could plant whatever she wanted.

Li Xiaoxiao started to prepare as soon as the sun rose. She first made tofu and then soy milk. She used the remaining bean dregs to make buns. She also asked Uncle Zhang to bring two pig's feet from the county town and made braised pig's feet with soybeans.

Li Xiaoxiao worked for a whole morning before finally preparing a meal. She was so tired that her back and waist ached. Since making fermented soybeans was troublesome and time-consuming, she didn't make them. She soaked a pound of soybeans in a basin. After three or four days, she could eat bean sprouts.

The milky white soy milk has sugar in it, and you can smell the aroma of beans from a distance. Li Huawen took a sip first. It was rich in aroma and sweet in the mouth. It was so delicious that he quickly drank a bowl of it without caring about the heat, and asked for another bowl.

The bean curd dregs buns left over from making soy milk are out of the pot. They are steamed with pure white flour, each with a thin skin and a large filling. Li Xiaoxiao puts in green onions, ginger, chopped chicken, and water soaked with aniseed. When you lift the lid of the pot, the aroma of meat mixed with the aroma of beans hits you in the face. They are neatly arranged one by one, and the taste is amazing when you take a bite.

It was almost noon, so I made a simple dish of tofu with green onions. It was easy to make, and the tofu was chewy, smooth, white and tender. It felt cool in the stomach and relieved the heat.

The last dish served was braised pig's trotters with soybeans. Li Xiaoxiao fried it with sugar water, and the color was attractive. The soybeans were soaked for two hours in advance and simmered on low heat for half an hour. The fragrance of the pig's trotters had seeped into every soybean. It was soft and sticky, and it tasted like nothing I had ever tasted before. After the first bite, I wanted to take a second bite.
