The all-round coser bravely challenges the female supremacy!
Chapter 165: What a great bargain!
The main house has the largest courtyard in the village.
Yichuan was brought into the yard by Qiao Si and led to the west room.
Su Yu stood beside the carriage in the yard and said to Qiao San,
"Qiao San, this truckload of sweet potatoes is for you to distribute to the villagers of Xiguo Village, and try to get every household to plant some.
You have eaten it in Wangjiacun before, so you know its taste and how to eat it.
This plant is much easier to grow than millet and rice, and it matures twice a year, much earlier than millet and rice."
Qiao San walked to the carriage and lifted the curtain. Seeing the carriage full of sweet potatoes, he was shocked.
"I only brought back a few locust branches, but I managed to grow so many in just a few months!"
Su Yu looked at the car full of sweet potatoes and said to Qiao San,
"Yes, sweet potatoes are a high-yield crop, easy to grow, not picky about the soil, and drought-resistant."
Qiao San bowed to Su Yu and said,
"Master, don't worry. I have already discussed this with Huaizhi and the others. I already know how to grow sweet potatoes.
Huaizhi and his friends are not good at farming, but they have grown so much in their first planting. If they were handed over to the villagers of Xiguo Village,
Rest assured, my lord, the yield will be even greater than what they planted!"
Carpenter Chen had not left yet and followed Su Yu to the yard where he lived.
Hearing Su Yu and Qiao San talking about the sweet potatoes on the carriage for them to plant, he looked towards the carriage curiously.
Seeing that the carriage was full of round and red sweet potatoes, I asked curiously,
"Is this a sweet potato? How do you eat it? Is it delicious?"
When Su Yu heard Chen Mujiang's question, his mind turned and he said to Chen Mujiang,
"It's delicious! This sweet potato is sweet and delicious, with a dense texture. You can roast it or make soup with it. It's sweeter than honey!"
Carpenter Chen was so greedy by the taste described by Su Yu that he drooled. Although their village was not poor, they still couldn't eat sugar casually.
Every family would use the candies they had to entertain guests. They would save them until they could no longer eat them.
And now this sweet potato is even sweeter than honey. Carpenter Chen really wants to try it!
Seeing Chen Carpenter's reaction, Su Yu chuckled and turned to Qiao San.
"Qiao San, roast some sweet potatoes in the car first and send them to the villagers so they can have a taste and know how to eat them.
We think our Food Lane will need a lot of these sweet potatoes in the future, so villagers don't have to worry about sales, just plant them!"
Qiao San nodded in agreement.
"Okay, my lord. I'll bake some and send them over later."
Carpenter Chen was concerned about the sweet potatoes and didn't bother to talk to Su Yu about any inspiration. He secretly urged Qiao San to leave quickly with a cart of sweet potatoes.
Qiao Si happened to have already told Yichuan about the room, so he followed him.
After Qiao San and the others left, Da Zhuang asked in confusion,
"Master, Xiguo Village has a stream with plenty of water. There is no need for sweet potatoes to resist drought. Why did you single them out?
The advantages of high yield and easy planting are enough to attract villagers to plant it.
These villagers depend on the weather and the land for their livelihood. Once there is an unexpected weather event, such as a strong wind or heavy rain, the millet and rice will fall over, and the yield will definitely be reduced!
We don't have these concerns about sweet potatoes. Once Manager Qiao San tells the villagers, they will definitely be willing to plant them!"
Su Yu glanced at Da Zhuang and said with a smile,
"I didn't expect Dazhuang to know so much about farming."
Da Zhuang laughed and said,
"Before I signed the contract to sell myself to the mansion, I was a good farmer. It's just that my appetite was too big and my family couldn't afford it, so I sold myself to the Jin Mansion.
Fortunately, the masters in the mansion are all good people! Da Zhuang didn't continue to starve. "
Su Yu looked at Da Zhuang and smiled.
"Luckily I didn't let you starve, otherwise how could you have such a big body and such great strength? I wouldn't be able to intimidate people by taking you out!"
Da Zhuang listened to Su Yu's praise and smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed.
"Hehe, as long as I can make the master happy!"
After Yichuan cleaned up the room, he came to the yard and saw Su Yu. He walked towards her.
"Ms. Su."
Su Yu turned around after hearing the voice and smiled at Yichuan.
"How's the bedroom? Are you used to it?"
Yichuan replied,
"Although this yard is in a rural village, I didn't expect the house to have all the furniture and items you need."
Su Yu explained with a smile,
"This courtyard was reserved by the manor specifically for our master family. The furnishings and furnishings inside this house are naturally the same as those in the capital."
Yichuan nodded.
"I see."
The cook in the courtyard was from Xiguo Village. His cooking skills were not as good as the cook in the mansion, and his meals were average.
Su Yu and Yichuan ate a little and then went to the fields to watch the villagers farming.
Su Yu had lived in Xiguo Village for half a month last time and was very familiar with it. He could take Yichuan and Dazhuang to the fields without anyone leading them.
There are quite a few curved plows in the fields, some used by oxen and people working together, and some used by two people at a time. It seems that Carpenter Chen has not been idle in the past few months.
There were many children running and playing around the adults in the fields, creating a lively and peaceful scene.
Suddenly, a little girl came running barefoot, crying all the way, with her hands raised, passing Su Yu, and ran to a woman not far away, crying,
"Ooooooooooooo! Mother! Mother! Ooooooooo! My hand hurts! Hurry up and help me take off this damn ugly thing!"
The little girl ran fast, and a group of children followed her and ran over, all looking at the girl's hand worriedly.
Just now when the little girl passed by Su Yu, Su Yu saw what she was holding in her hand.
It was a big crab, and looked very plump.
The little girl's mother looked at her daughter in such a state of disgrace, feeling both distressed and amused.
She helped her hold the crab's body and poked its eyes, and the crab finally released its claws.
The little girl's friends all gathered around, staring at her hands and talking about it with concern,
"Are you okay again?"
"Are you still in pain again?"
"Ah! Youyou, your finger seems to be swollen!"
The little girl stopped crying when the crab released her fingers. She was a grown-up woman, how could she cry so easily? It was all because of this ugly crab that made her look bad!
The little girl looked at the crab in her mother's hand angrily, stretched out her hand to grab it and threw it to the ground.
Unexpectedly, this ugly thing was taken away by someone first.
Su Yu took the crab from the villager and looked at it curiously. It was a female crab, and it looked fat and full of yellow roe!
"Where do you get such good quality crabs?"
The little girl's mother knew who Su Yu was, and was very puzzled to see that Su Yu was so interested in this crab.
"There are plenty of these crabs in our creek, right at the end of the creek behind the field.
This crab is just a shell, with no meat, and it can't be eaten. It can also pinch people. Why is Lord Su so interested in it? "
Su Yu smiled and said,
"This crab is edible."
The little girl's mother immediately persuaded her,
"You can't eat it! Master Su, this crab is really inedible!
Someone in our village tried it before, and they said you can't eat it. If you eat it, you'll feel uncomfortable in your stomach and vomit!"
Su Yu smiled at the little girl's mother and said,
"Some parts of this crab are edible, while others are not. And if you eat too much, it will be just like you said. As long as you pay attention, you'll be fine."
Seeing Su Yu was so confident, the little girl's mother stopped talking. They wouldn't eat it anyway.
The way of eating that Lord Su described was too complicated. They were all ordinary people and couldn't eat such delicate food.
Su Yu learned the location of the crabs, so he stopped staying in the field and took Yichuan and Dazhuang to catch crabs.
This Mid-Autumn Festival, there are only moon cakes but no crabs.
Su Yu was quite puzzled. It turned out that the people here were not yet interested in eating crabs.
The crabs in the stream are all fat and yellow, which is a great bargain for Su Yu!
