So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day
Chapter 140: Elder Ning's Loss of Control
The man raised his head and looked around. He found that there was no one there. He was still trying to put rice into the bag. The next second, three or four stones shot out from different places and hit the man. The places hit by the stones felt a dull pain.
Another stone hit the shed accurately.
"Who?" The man guarding the rice was awakened and shouted, then got up and walked outside.
When the man saw that the person had woken up, he immediately picked up the bag and ran away.
The barn keeper came out of the shed and saw that no one was around. He muttered a few words and sat back in the shed, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan and looking around.
A few figures flashed in the deep forest not far away
"Your Majesty, it's time to eat," the eunuch Liao, the chief eunuch beside the emperor, reminded carefully.
The emperor, who was still reviewing memorials, raised his head and said something to Eunuch Liao. Then the chief eunuch gave the order.
When the meal was ready, Eunuch Liao followed the emperor to the dining table.
The dish closest to the emperor was a fish.
The emperor took a bite and showed a satisfied look: "Not bad, send some of this fish to my mother, I remember she loves to eat fish"
"Yes," Eunuch Liao replied, and turned to whisper a few words to a young eunuch, who lowered his head and went out.
"The weather has been too hot recently, and I don't know how the Queen Mother's appetite is."
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has had a good appetite recently. She particularly likes to eat a dish called scrambled eggs with tomatoes. She eats a plate of it every day.
"Well, as long as mother likes it," the emperor nodded and put another piece of fish into his mouth.
"By the way, what is this fish called?"
"Your Majesty, I heard from the people below that this fish is called Rice Flower Fish and it grows up eating rice flowers."
Suihe's millet had been dried for two or three days. The dried rice was packed into dozens of sacks. It took the oxcart two trips to pull the rice back.
The dried rice is blown away by a rice winder to remove the empty husks and rotten rice.
Grandpa poured the rice into the funnel at the top, and Suihe shook the handle to blow the empty shells out from the outlet. The Fenggu cart has two outlets for rice.
The full ones stay on one side, and the unfull ones leak out from the other side
By the time Sui He had finished blowing all the rice grains, his hands were sore from shaking.
Old Ning grabbed a handful of rice from the sack, picked up a grain and put it in his mouth and took a bite. With a snap, he peeled off the shell, revealing the plump white rice inside, and sighed, "Good, good!"
Sui He put the rice into sacks and counted them. One sack could hold about 50 kilograms. There were more than 80 bags neatly placed in the granary.
More than 4,000 kilograms of grain were harvested from a few acres of land. Grandpa stood in the granary and patted the sacks filled with rice.
Sui He looked at the grains and felt a little disappointed. One acre of land only produced a few jin. She remembered that in her previous life, the hybrid rice cultivated by Grandpa Yuan could produce about 1,600 to 2,000 jin per acre.
Her yield is still a bit low. It seems that she needs to find a way to produce hybrid rice. It's all her fault that she didn't study hard before. If she had studied more and learned more, hybrid rice would have been easy to produce.
If Mr. Ning knew what Sui He was thinking, I wonder if he would want to strangle her to death
Sui He didn't know what Mr. Ning was thinking.
After the rice is harvested, it is time to turn the sweet potato seedlings in the sweet potato field.
July is the time when sweet potatoes grow most vigorously. If these sweet potato vines grow too vigorously, it will affect the growth of the sweet potatoes below.
If you want sweet potatoes to grow well, you can't leave too many of these leaves.
Sui He took a sickle and cut off a part of the sweet potato vines, put the cut sweet potato vines aside, and turned to cut the other side.
"Suihe" Ning Lao followed Suihe to the field and called Suihe who was working with his head down.
"Mr. Ning, if you have something to say, just tell me." Sui He knew that Mr. Ning wanted to talk to her about something. Since the rice harvest, she could clearly see that something was wrong with Mr. Ning. He was absent-minded when eating and always stared at the granary of Sui He's family.
When they came to turn the rice seedlings today, Sui He did not let her grandparents come along in order to give Old Ning a chance to find her alone. Sure enough, when Old Ning saw Sui He coming alone, he also followed her out.
"Mr. Ning, if you want the rice, don't be so hesitant. Just say it directly." Sui He kept moving, cutting off a few sweet potato vines and throwing them aside, and turning the remaining sweet potato vines aside.
"You know?" Before Ning Lao could finish his words, Sui He interrupted him.
"I know, I can give you the rice, but I have a few conditions." Sui He did not stop and spoke lightly.
"You said, as long as you give me the rice, I can fulfill all your wishes." Ning Lao said confidently. As long as he could get these things, he could still agree to some requests.
When Sui He heard what Old Ning said, he put down the sweet potato vine in his hand and straightened up: "First, popularize these rice seeds so that ordinary people can grow this kind of rice. I think you know some of the situations that Old Ning has been visiting my fields every day in the past two months."
"You know what?" Ning Lao touched his beard awkwardly.
Sui He was a little disappointed: "You follow Doctor Ye to my field every day. Do you really think I can't see it? If you really want me to not see it, at least you guys should pretend."
"Second," Sui He said, stating his second condition: "I like my current life. I don't want anyone to disturb my life. I want to do anything without any scruples. Do you understand me?"
When Ning Lao heard the second condition, he was stunned for a moment. In this era where people have no choice, it is not unknown how difficult it is to do what you like without scruples. Even the current emperor cannot do it without scruples. Thinking of this, Ning Lao's face was a little embarrassed.
Sui He saw the difficulty that Mr. Ning was in: "I know this is a bit difficult. You might as well go back and ask the person behind you. If they are willing, I will give you another gift soon."
"What is the gift?" Hearing about the other gift, Ning Lao was a little curious.
Sui He spoke confidently: "A kind of grain that produces at least 5,000 kilograms per mu."
"What?" Ning Lao suspected that he had heard it wrongly. Strange noises were also heard from the surrounding woods. Sui He looked around in confusion but found nothing unusual.
"You're right? Do you know what a yield of 5,000 kilograms per mu means?" Old Ning's voice became louder, not caring about other etiquette. He grabbed Sui He's shoulders and his voice was filled with urgency.
"pain"
Ning Lao's grip became stronger and stronger, causing Sui He's shoulders to feel pain.
Hearing Sui He's cry of pain, Ning Lao finally realized what had happened. He immediately let go of Sui He's shoulder and said seriously, "Chen Sui He, producing 5,000 kilograms of grain per mu is no joke."
Sui He rubbed his shoulders, a little angry, and said impatiently: "I can even produce 1,000 kilograms of rice per mu, why can't I produce 5,000 kilograms of grain? As long as you agree to my request, you can come and witness it in person in a month."
"Are you so sure that I can agree to your request?" After hearing Sui He's words, Ning Lao's mood calmed down and he asked half-jokingly.
"I'm not sure about this. Although I don't know your identity, I guess it must be high." Sui He tilted his head and thought about it.
