Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

After a while, Liu came back.

There was a wild rabbit in the basket in her hand. Liu said it was given by the Zhao family and she couldn't refuse it.

When I went there, the father and son of the Zhao family were busy in the kitchen and the dishes were burnt.

Liu thought that Mrs. Zhao was ill and bedridden, and that the father and son of the Zhao family must have trouble getting food, so she planned to cook a rabbit herself tomorrow and bring it back to the Zhao family.

Xiao Wan asked Liu about the current situation.

Liu looked at Xiao Wan worriedly: "Wan'er, what's wrong with you? Why don't you remember anything?"

Xiao Wan smiled guiltily: "Mom, maybe I have a headache from the fall, so I can't remember clearly. I'm fine, don't worry."

Liu told Xiao Wan about it.

Xiao Wan knew that the dynasty she traveled to was the Yuan Dynasty, but she didn't know whether it was the same as the Yuan Dynasty in history.

The village they live in is called Dahuaishu Village. It is not a very wealthy village. There are four siblings in the Xiao family, and the eldest sister is already married and has moved to the next village.

The original owner's name was the same as Xiao Wan, also called Xiao Wan'er.

It is said that the Xiao siblings could have such elegant and meaningful names, but it was their father, Xiao, who had been honest and uneducated all his life, who found the only old scholar in the village, gave him half a bag of brown rice and came up with these names as a backup.

For this, Xiao Wan marveled at Old Man Xiao’s wisdom!

This saved herself and her siblings from having the same name as the other girls in the village: "Yatou", "Niuzi" and "Goudan".

It's so earthy, I can't even pronounce it.

At this time, Old Man Xiao came back from the fields.

Old Man Xiao has three brothers, and he is the second oldest. Everyone in the village calls him Old Man Xiao.

He is an honest, simple man in his thirties, and he loves children.

After returning, he went into the house to see Xiao Wan and asked happily, "Wan'er, are you okay? Where is it still painful? Don't go up the mountain alone in the future. Daddy dug a basket of eggs and will roast them for you later."

"I'm fine, Dad. What the hell is that? Let me see it." Xiao Wan asked excitedly.

"You must have fallen down, kid. You don't even recognize the ground. Isn't that right?"

After saying that, he took out a few balls from the bamboo basket at the door.

Xiao Wan looked closely and realized that this was a potato. Its scientific name was Solanum tuberosum. It might be wild and relatively small in size.

Old Man Xiao said that they had all been dug up, and only this basket was found.

These were not good times, and everyone was short of food and clothing. Eating boiled or roasted potatoes could at least fill their stomachs, so the villagers went up the mountain and dug them up desperately to store food.

Xiao Wan remembered watching a video and seeing that potatoes can be planted after sprouting.

Potatoes do not require much land and have a high yield, so you can try planting them.

Xiao Wan seemed to see hot and sour potato shreds, pork ribs stewed with potatoes, mashed potatoes, and French fries flying before her eyes.

It's the key to making a fortune.

Xiao Wan told her father about her idea. Father Xiao looked at his daughter as if he didn't know her and asked in confusion, "Wan'er, how did you know?"

Xiao Wan felt a little guilty.

Then I thought that I would have to find a way to make money for my family in the future, so I just made up a reason to solve the problem once and for all, so that I wouldn’t have to explain it over and over again in the future.

Xiao Wanxin said nonsense, "Dad, I fell down the mountain and saw an old man with a white beard in a trance. He taught me a lot in my dream and asked me to call him Master and keep it secret. I thought I was dreaming, but when I saw these potatoes, the planting method and cooking method unconsciously appeared in my mind."

After Xiao Wan finished speaking, she felt even more guilty. This excuse was too far-fetched.

I didn't know what to do for a while.

Unexpectedly, Old Man Xiao excitedly called Xiao Liu over and told her about this.

Xiao Liushi was also very excited, and kept saying, "Ancestors bless you, ancestors bless you, not only is Wan'er fine, but she also encountered the guidance of the gods."

The two of them also told Xiao Zhengping and Xiao Yuer not to mention this matter to others when they went out to play, and the two little kids nodded repeatedly.

Xiao Wan's calm heart fell.

In this era of information scarcity, feudal backwardness and superstition of gods and Buddhas, people naturally chose to believe it.

Wild ground eggs are not very big.

During dinner, Xiao Liu cut a few ground eggs and put them into the chicken soup to cook together. Xiao Zhengping and Xiao Yuer stared at the pot, looking very greedy, which made Xiao Wan feel sad.

Ground eggs have a high starch content and can be used as both a dish and a staple food, so the whole family can definitely fill their stomachs.

If potatoes are germinated and planted, a good harvest can be obtained in three to two months.
