A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!

Aunt Su did not grow up in the countryside, so she doesn't have much knowledge about farming.

That is to say, after traveling through time, I actually learned some knowledge and skills about vegetable and fruit greenhouses.

But even though she had little knowledge about the countryside, it didn't stop her from being shocked when she heard this.

Aunt Su stood up and walked for a while on the beach.

Then I saw groups of small locusts jumping on the beach.

Judging from their size and the height of their jumps, these little locusts are not that scary.

People with trypophobia may feel uncomfortable watching this.

Su Mei and Aunt Jiao followed behind.

Madam Jiao advised, "Old Madam, you'd better get on the carriage. There are many insects here. It would be bad if they get bitten."

Aunt Su thought about it and asked the boys to catch a few locusts, and then she got back into the carriage.

She looked out from the carriage and saw that the beach was bare with only a few clumps of brambles growing here and there. She looked up at the valley and saw that the mountain walls on both sides were sharp and towering into the clouds.

I thought that these little locusts were just jumping around on the beach, how could they fly over the mountains?

After dinner, the boys strung the caught locusts together with dogtail grass stalks and handed them to Aunt Su.

Aunt Su asked Su Mei to give them the snacks she brought as rewards.

The boys took it and ate it happily.

That night, the Su family's convoy stopped in a village.

This small village is located at the foot of the mountain, right in the middle of a section of official road between two towns.

If you are in a hurry to travel to these two towns, you can reach them in one day by traveling early in the morning and sleeping at night. There is no need to stay overnight in this village.

But Aunt Su was not in a hurry to travel. Instead, she was thinking about sightseeing, so she stayed for one more day.

The village is right next to the official road, and with many visitors passing by, some smart people would set up a tea stall to sell hot meals, and those with spacious homes would let their guests stay overnight, which is a bit like a modern farm stay.

Lin Laoer rented the empty houses of two farmers.

Although they lived in a farmer's house, they brought their own mattresses, bed curtains, etc. Before moving in, the servants cleaned the house and burned incense. Aunt Su didn't feel the conditions were shabby after moving in.

Although she could live in a room alone, Aunt Su still waited until late at night before video chatting with Su Heiya.

In fact, when you are away from home and are not familiar with the environment, it is still a bit risky to video chat with Su Heiya.

The last time she entered the capital from Tongcheng, Aunt Su only video-called Su Heiya once or twice along the way.

But isn’t it that Aunt Su is hiding something?

"Mom, why are you so late today? Is there something wrong?"

Su Juanjuan finished her work today. She made a facial mask, played with the cat for a while, watched short videos for an hour, and replied to dozens of them. She thought her mother would not video chat with her again today, so she yawned, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

And she also knew that her mother was on her way back to Tongcheng.

Accommodation conditions on the road are sometimes not very good, and each person may not have a room to themselves, so video chatting is impossible.

"Isn't there something wrong? Heiya, I saw a bunch of locusts on the road today..."

Aunt Su told Su Juanjuan what she had seen during the day.

He also showed Su Juanjuan the string of small locusts that he had kept.

It's no big deal at first glance, I didn't expect that after such a long time, these insects could still kick their legs!

It’s full of vitality!

"what?"

There was a bunch of little locusts kicking their legs in front of the camera. Even though Su Juanjuan was mentally prepared, she still leaned back.

"Locusts? Did you see them by the stream? In patches?"

"Of course I am. When I look at these locusts, I feel a little panicked. I hope there won't be a locust plague in this era, right?"

The locust plague is terrible.

Wherever they went, there was not a single crop left.

In modern times, even if there is a harvest failure, there is still government relief and social donations.

But what about in this era?

Although nominally the government would provide some relief, the wealthy might even be able to give out some porridge.

But if everything could be done well in the feudal era, there wouldn't be so many refugees and uprisings.

Of course, this is based on the time Aunt Su lived in Beijing.

Although the emperor was a little old and the princes were still restless, the lives of ordinary people were still so-so, and there was no rhythm of changing dynasties.

But a stable political regime does not mean that local areas are also stable.

If this large area east of the capital were hit by a locust plague, there would inevitably be many refugees.

If there are too many refugees, there will be chaos.

While Aunt Su was thinking divergently, Su Juanjuan over there had already used a picture to identify the bunch of locusts that Aunt Su was putting in front of the camera.

"The Oriental migratory locust is a migratory omnivorous pest... It is a stout insect that is not picky about its food, has well-developed wings, and can fly long distances. It can be artificially bred and eaten."

Aunt Su couldn't help but exclaim, "Can this thing be artificially cultivated?"

"Yes, I see there is a recipe. Wash and peel the locusts, coat them with egg and flour paste, and fry them in oil. The kids next door will cry for their greed."

Aunt Su spat, "If ordinary people had eggs, flour and oil, they wouldn't have to worry about locust plagues!"

But I still said, "It's too slow for you to look it up and read it out at the same time. If there are many words, please print them out and send them to me."

"The causes of locust plagues, locust prevention and control methods, locust recipes, etc...."

"Oh, by the way, Heiya, didn't you buy a lot of pesticides? See if there's any that can cure locusts?"

That being said, Aunt Su feels that there are almost no locust plagues nowadays. The ones Su Heiya bought are mainly used for medical treatment. I'm afraid there is no medicine to cure locusts...

"If you don't have it, buy it tomorrow. It's best if it's light and effective..."

A 250-gram packet of medicine powder appeared out of thin air in front of Aunt Su and fell on her crossed legs.

Su Heiya said this very proudly.

"Mom, you underestimate your daughter, don't you?"

"Isn't it just a medicine for treating locusts? I bought the latest technology! It is said that this medicine can interfere with the pheromones of locusts and effectively disrupt the gathering of locusts."

"We have basically prepared all the things necessary for traveling through time, just in case we encounter an emergency one day and it's too late!"

To transfer something from modern times to ancient times, the happiness value required is doubled.

So she prepared them all at home and sent them on demand to avoid wasting happiness points.

You know, she is the woman who has a collection of rare books that are essential guides for traveling to ancient times!

Aunt Su was holding the bag of pheromone powder, and she was so touched!

"Brothers fight together to save the tiger, and mothers and daughters fight together in battle!"

After a while, she received another four pages of printed information.

In order to save happiness points, these materials are all printed in the smallest font and on both sides.
