Traveling through the farm, I just want to earn money by farming
Chapter 228 Letter from Beijing
Since the greenhouse was built, green lemons have been very busy.
Apart from going to school, I would stay in the greenhouse.
The three acres of land in the yard were all covered. In order to prevent a sudden drop in temperature in spring, a pit was built in each shed for burning fire for heating.
In order to see the results of cotton planting as soon as possible, half of the cotton was planted around Qingming Festival, and the other half was planted in a greenhouse.
Carefully observe the changes every day and record every little difference.
Firstly, this was her first time practicing it, and secondly, it was going to be widely spread in the future, so naturally everyone had to see it.
This squatting lasted for about a month, and only when the seedlings grew strong did Qing Ning feel a little relieved.
After the seedlings emerge, you need to take care of them carefully. Fertilizing, watering, weeding, pest control, etc. Qing Ning is watching every step of the way, like a real housekeeper.
During this period, the few people who stayed in the county town to recuperate returned to Chenjia Village after their health improved.
Prince Fu seemed to be reluctant to go back, but the royal tutor urged him again and again, and the princess also sent him several letters, so he reluctantly returned to Funan Mansion.
Xu Minglang planned to hold this year's spring banquet before Qingming Festival, but thinking about the new crops, he simply decided not to go back and stayed.
The foundation of the road in the village has been laid, supplemented with gravel and fine sand, and is just waiting for the next step.
The villagers were also very enthusiastic and had smiles on their faces every day.
The school was also built quickly, as expected of a professional school. The cafeteria and dormitories were completed in just a month. Prince Fu's project would have taken years to complete.
Qing Ning finally insisted on using bricks and tiles as the main material as they were more stable, durable and fast to build. As for the pavilions and towers, they ignored King Fu's kindness and planned a separate back garden for the school. As for how the back garden should be designed and built, it was done according to King Fu's wishes.
The days go by like this, ordinary yet full of vitality.
"Qing Ning, come quickly. There's a letter from Shang Jing, and he brought a lot of things."
As soon as Mr. Yu entered the room, he came straight over.
Qing Ning patted the dirt off his hands, wiped them repeatedly on his shirt, took the letter, thanked him, and opened it to take a look.
When Mr. Yu saw that she was reading the letter, the smile on her face never left her face, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
"What did the letter say?"
Qing Ning closed the letter and said with a smile, "Second Brother Meng said they won't leave until after the Spring Examination in March. The letter also said that His Majesty has sent a fleet overseas to search for sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and other crops."
"I also asked the Maritime Customs to find a lot of cotton seeds in Shangjing, which are among the things I sent this time. They also sent a lot of foreign crop seeds, saying that I should try to plant them all."
"He also said that His Majesty has awarded us brothers and sisters a reward for our disaster relief efforts, and an envoy will arrive soon to announce it. He also gave me a special letter of commendation for the county's plans to build roads, bridges, and plowshares, and that's coming along with it."
Qing Ning's eyes narrowed into slits as she smiled. Oh my god, is this a first for the Great Xia Dynasty? The Emperor himself issued an edict commending her!
She felt happy just thinking about it, and suddenly she realized that being loved by someone must be such a pleasurable thing.
Seeing her like this, Old Master Yu was also happy. Children are so straightforward in their emotions, and they get so excited just by the word "reward"ヾ(o???)?ヾ.
"Are you so happy to be rewarded?"
"Well, of course I'm happy."
Old Master Yu felt very surprised to see her like this.
"Go check it out! They heard about your misfortune in the capital and are extremely worried. They've all sent a lot of medicinal herbs. They're all in the front hall. You should go check it out instead of staying stuck in this shed all day."
"Okay, I'll go after I pull out all the weeds here."
Old Master Yu picked her up and urged, "Go quickly. I'll take care of this. Why are you worrying about this, kid?"
Qing Ning grinned when he heard it and just said, "Thank you, Grandpa Yu. I'll go then."
He ran out so quickly that he didn't even have time to take off his coat.
After entering the hanging flower gate and turning a corner, she went to the kitchen. Seeing her like this, Xu Miao Niang quickly boiled some hot water for her to wash her face and hands.
He then took off her coat and changed her into clean shoes and socks, and then Qingning went to the main hall.
"Hey, our Qing Ning is back. Come in and warm up inside."
When Zhou Yuerong saw her coming, she quickly invited her into the house.
Qing Ning greeted the elders present and went to see the things that had been delivered.
When I saw that hill-like thing, I sighed at my own limited knowledge.
"Come here quickly. These are the seeds Meng Er and his friends gave you. They are labeled with names of various crop seeds."
Qingsong's brothers and sisters are all here. Now that there are many girls in the family, they all live in Chen Changjiang's house, and Chen Changhe's house is given to the ladies and young ladies to live in.
Qing Ning looked at the bags of crops in front of him and opened them one by one to identify them.
My goodness, she recognized some of the seeds and some of them she didn’t.
"Qingning, do you recognize these crop seeds?"
Zhou and her friends came over to watch the fun. They didn't know what these things were, so they had to ask Qing Ning.
Qing Ning was honest, "I recognize some of them, but I don't recognize some of them. However, if I could grow them, I might know what they are."
Not to mention that the other vegetable varieties all look similar, but the varieties they produce are very different, so how could she recognize them all?
"If I don't know, won't it be bad if I plant it at the wrong time?"
Madam Li was a little worried, so she told him what she was thinking.
Qing Ning smiled slightly and said, "That's nothing. Most of the planting is done in spring and autumn. I have a greenhouse now. I'll build one in a few days and plant all these. Who knows, I might even be able to eat vegetables that are not in season."
By then she will know that they are crops, and she won't be blind when collecting them later.
"Really? Quick, where will the new greenhouse be built? Will there be enough tarpaulins? I'll arrange for someone to prepare it right away."
Ming Miaoren is an impatient person. When he heard this, he wanted to do it immediately.
"Don't worry, pretty auntie. We still have enough oilcloth to build one. Just build it in the garden over at Uncle's house. Don't worry, wait a couple of days before doing it."
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I'll listen to you."
After seeing this, Qing Ning asked people to help move the things into the warehouse.
As for the other things, she had no use for them. When she heard that Aunt Yu had also sent her a scar-removing beauty cream, she felt relieved.
The eldest sister and the second sister were both seriously injured, especially the eldest sister, who had a scar on her left cheek that ran from the corner of her forehead to behind her ear. Although the eldest sister said she didn't mind, everyone could see that Qingke was obviously in a low mood.
He doesn't like to laugh and chat with them on weekdays, and he doesn't like to appear in front of people. Even if he has to be in front of people, he covers his face with his hair, always keeps his head down, and rarely smiles.
Who wouldn't feel distressed after seeing this? She wanted to offer some advice, but it would seem meaningless if she said too much. Even when Qing Ning teased her, she only gave a perfunctory smile.
Even though I haven't seen any effect from this scar-removing ointment yet, it came from the palace after all, so I feel a little better.
