Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 21 Different Deliciousness Different Deliciousness

The yellowish-brown bumps are slightly larger than an adult's fist, with a little sand on the skin, and there are big bumps with red skin next to them.

Zi Shuyan held one in each hand and asked in confusion, "Can the yield per acre be 2000 to 4000 kilograms?"

"Of course. The one in your left hand is a potato, and the one in your right hand is a sweet potato. The leaves of the sweet potato are edible."

"It's early summer now, so hurry up and plant them. Isn't there still some water in the river? As long as there is some water, they will sprout and you can harvest them in winter."

"Sweet potatoes are soft, sticky and sweet. I believe these hungry people will like to eat them. There are even more ways to eat potatoes."

Xu Jinyu was quite proud of getting potato and sweet potato seeds, as these were life-saving things.

“Would you like to try it now?”

Xu Jinyu looked at Zi Shuyan with sparkling eyes.

It was only a few days, but she felt like a long time had passed. She especially missed the taste of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Zi Shuyan nodded reservedly. He really needed to understand the taste of these two kinds of grains.

“I’ll tell the chefs what to do.”

After Zi Shuyan nodded in agreement, Xu Jinyu ran towards the kitchen.

At noon, Xu Jinyu ate potatoes stewed with chicken, stir-fried shredded potatoes, dry-pot potato slices, and candied sweet potatoes as she wished.

"Comfortable!"

Although these dishes are not as delicious as modern ones due to the lack of seasoning, they are still satisfying to eat.

Xu Jinyu leaned back in the chair and rubbed her stomach, her mind still racing.

[I also bought some seeds of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, etc., and will plant them when the time comes. This will solve most of my food problems in ancient times.]

[I also need soy sauce, vinegar, oyster sauce, chicken essence, MSG, pepper powder... How come there are so few condiments in ancient times? ]

[There is no steamed buns. The buns are so delicious that they can break your teeth. The rice husks are not cleaned properly. If you are not careful, you will eat stones.]

[The flour is full of grains, and there is no tofu! ]

[I understand, because there is no King of Huainan Liu An here. ]

Xu Jinyu never thought that tofu was delicious, but she didn't expect that she would miss tofu after coming to ancient times.

[I don’t even have an iron pot. Do you know how much effort it took me to prepare this lunch? ]

…………

It was Zi Shuyan's first time eating sweet potatoes and potatoes, and he was enjoying them very much. But when he heard Xu Jinyu complaining all the time, the rice in his hand suddenly didn't taste so good anymore.

At the same time, I also began to wonder about the situation in the country where Xu Jinyu lived.

Because of his status as the crown prince, the food here is only slightly worse than that in the crown prince's mansion.

White rice and white flour are also despised. What did Miss Xu eat before?

And what was that tofu that made Miss Xu miss it so much?

Every time after listening to Xu Jinyu's thoughts, Zi Shuyan's mind was full of questions.

After the meal, Zi Shuyan took people to discuss the seeds.

And Xu Jinyu returned to his own yard.

In the yard, Xu Feiyu and Xu Yanran were helping the maids clean up.

"Big sister, little sister, have you eaten the food I brought you for lunch?"

“It’s delicious, isn’t it? I love sweet potatoes and potatoes.”

Xu Feiyu put down the rag in his hand, looked at his sister who was in high spirits, and listened to the happy voice in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It would be nice if my old sister never had such a bright smile.

With the whole family there, there is no endless work to do, you won’t be beaten or scolded, and you don’t have to worry about being sold one day.

This was a life that Xu Feiyu had never dared to imagine before. She was even a little bored and started competing with the maid for work.

Xu Feiyu smiled and said, "We ate it. It was delicious. We have never eaten it before. Is it something rare?"

"It's quite rare now, but it may not be the case in the future." Xu Jinyu smiled mysteriously.

I believe that once the first crop of sweet potatoes and potatoes comes out, the entire Daqian will rush to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes.

"By the way, elder sister, where are my parents?"

Xu Feiyu's face darkened when she heard this, but she still said to Xu Jinyu: "My parents are in another courtyard. They were hurt by my grandmother's attitude and are still in low spirits."

What do you mean by being hurt by grandparents? Dad and mom are afraid of the current Xu Jinyu. Even though their current good life is provided by Xu Jinyu, they are still trembling with fear.

When Xu Feiyu went to see his parents last night, his parents still wanted to return to Gaomiao Village and continue to be good sons and daughters-in-law to their grandparents.

Xu Feiyu still feels frightened when he thinks back on what those two people said.

"Pandi, let's go back to Gaomiao Village. Zhaodi is now a spirit, not your sister."

"Besides, since our selling of bodies was fake, it will be fine for us to go back."

Xu Feiyu asked her parents coldly: "What are you going to do when you go back? Are you waiting to be sold again? Or are you waiting to be sold to a brothel and become a prostitute?"

"No, no, as long as we rescue your uncle, your grandmother will not sell us out again."

"What guarantees do you have?"

"Promise...what...promise." Xu Yincheng grunted for a long time but couldn't utter anything.

On the contrary, Qian Shi stiffened her neck and said, "Those are your grandparents. They will not sell you to a brothel."

"Won't?"

Xu Feiyu sneered. When her grandmother wanted to sell her to a fool as a wife a few days ago, her parents could only cry and kowtow, but they did not put up any effective opposition at all.

If her parents were brave enough to fight her grandparents with axes, she didn't believe that her grandparents would dare to sell her to a fool.

But parents would never fight with their grandparents for the three sisters.

After just a few days, I no longer felt any resentment towards my grandparents.

These days, Xu Feiyu has figured it out. It's not that her grandmother loves her uncle so much, but her wish to become an old lady can only be realized through her uncle.

When the day comes when uncle is no longer useful, it will be bad luck.

Xu Feiyu had asked the guards about the situation.

For the sake of the second sister, the guards told her that they would not release her uncle until the prince left Zhengyang County.

The eighty taels of silver they got from selling their bodies would not be enough to bribe the yamen runners for long.

Xu Feiyu remembered what he said to his parents at the end: "If you want to go back, go back. The worst that can happen is that you will be sold again. This time, there will be no second sister to save you."

As soon as Xu Feiyu said this, the couple's faces turned pale in an instant, and they didn't say they wanted to go back.

They knew what would happen if they went back, but they still wanted to go back.

"Oh, by the way, second sister, my parents know that selling my body is fake, and they still want to go back to Gaomiao Village!"

Xu Jinyu opened her mouth in surprise, "No! They..."

Are you sick? Xu Jinyu suddenly braked and didn't say these three words.

[What the hell, you've developed feelings for someone after being abused, and you're going back, waiting to die? ]

[Why do I remember that this couple was killed by the Xu family?] Xu ​​Jinyu buried his head in the system again.

Xu Feiyu, who was standing next to Xu Jinyu, frowned.

Xu Jinyu didn't understand why Xu Yincheng wanted to go back to the Xu family, but Xu Feiyu understood.

In the eyes of Xu Yincheng and Qian, the three sisters were not considered to be descendants of the Xu family and would have to get married sooner or later.

Only males can be considered as the descendants of the Xu family, so they must return to the Xu family. Only by returning to the Xu family will there be someone to take care of them in their old age and see them to the end of their lives.

This is why the family has worked so hard over the years.
