Chapter 5: Give Zhang Zishan a good life
In October, it was the harvest season, and Liu Ao's sweet potatoes were popularized on a large scale, coupled with the encouragement of the imperial court, and basically the landed tenants and people were planted this year. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the first frost fell, harvesting sweet potatoes became the most concerned thing for the people.
The sweet potato seedlings of spring sweet potatoes are turned into sweet potato seedlings in summer. Now the land is full of people who grow sweet potatoes. Everyone has a smile on their face, and this year, I finally don't have to go hungry anymore.
On the road, there are carts pulling sweet potatoes. In the yard of each house, a cellar was opened.
"This year's sweet potatoes are a disaster." Zimu and Liu Ao had just returned from Xuefu and saw the sweet potato cart on the road. Zimu said with emotion.
"Disaster? After eating, it will be a disaster if it continues like this next year, not this year, the strength of the policy, and the entire Datang will not be spread, this year, the smart people, will use sweet potatoes as seeds and sell some of them to other places. Of course, maybe not, I'm hungry. Liu Ao knows that the current people can sell anything, but they don't sell food.
People who have food at home, do not panic in their hearts, and have not experienced the kind of era when they can't eat, will never be able to understand the meaning of food for people.
"This year, our sweet potatoes are all floured. All the corn was sold as seeds. Corn is the real food, and sweet potatoes are uncomfortable to eat too much. The current Datang can be regarded as truly standing on a solid foundation. ”
Historically, almost all peasant rebellions and rebellions were related to not being able to eat. As long as the peasants have something to eat, who will do the brainless thing?
In today's Liu Mansion, there are rows of herringbone wooden shelves, all of which are golden corn cobs, which are really beautiful, and all the straws are sent to the cattle farm. Now the four retainers have all followed Chang'an.
Ma Han, because of Zhanzhao's relationship, must move here, Uncle Wang's family, Lianzhu and Xiu go to school in Chang'an, and have been here, Zhang Long, because there is too much business here, no one, I was temporarily transferred a few months ago, Zhao Hu, after marrying Xiaonan's mother, Xiaonan's mother wanted to change the environment, mainly because there were too many acquaintances in Luoyang, women, sometimes I felt that people looked at her strangely, and they were unhappy, so the family also came to Chang'an.
The Los Angeles University has hired a new gentleman. Xiao Nan also followed him to Chang'an, Chang'an, and once again came to a big reunion.
Only Xiaodong said that he would accompany his master and Sister Chu Chu in Luoyang, and he was reluctant to come to Chang'an.
I have a holiday, Chu Chu doesn't come, and I have to go back to Luoyang to see her. Otherwise, it really doesn't make sense. So, I arranged for Chang'an's house, with Da Hei and Da Bai, as well as Bi Changchun, and didn't even bring Big and Little Lotus.
Along the way, seeing that the winter wheat he made had sprouted, Liu Ao also had a great sense of accomplishment. Looking at the small sweet potato whips scattered on the sweet potatoes on the ground, Liu Ao knew that most of the fields where sweet potatoes were planted, although the wheat seedlings were a few days later than other places, but as long as this year's snow and spring rain kept up, there were not many bumper harvests.
Luoyang is still the same, the familiar city wall, the city gate tower, Liu Ao is full of emotion, in two years, he has changed from a young man who can't eat enough to become a wealthy Liu Jueye, a Momen giant, the head of the Emei faction, and a concubine. It's like a dream to think about it. In the teahouse on the side of the road, there is something ancient, and it is "Bao Qingtian".
Liu Ao didn't want to listen to this, and he didn't even go back to the Liu Mansion in Luoyang, and went directly to the Beicheng Princess Mansion.
"You still know to come back." Chu Chu's eyes turned red. Zhang Zishan snorted and pulled Bi Changchun away. Da Hei and Da Bai were dragged away by Xiaodong with one hand and one ear. In the room, Chu Chu and Liu Ao were left.
Liu Ao, who was speechless, didn't say anything, took Chu Chu in his arms...... "I'm hungry......"
"Poof......" Chu Chu burst into tears and laughed. Hugo is fine. (Oh, when I wrote this, I remembered that today is Tanabata, well, I wish my brothers and sisters who saw this chapter, happy Tanabata.) Like Liu Aochuchu, holding each other in his arms, what? How to eat, watch it yourself. )
The two of them were hungry until they were tired, and the key was that Liu Ao's pure heart and lack of desire played a role......
"Marry you next year." It seems that this was said to another person, and Liu Ao's heart is really a little empty.
"You dare not marry, hum!" Chu Chuqiao's face was raised, forty-five degrees, the most beautiful angle. It's a pity that there is no mobile phone to take selfies.
"Why is there no one to serve, how did you become a princess?" Liu Ao is very strange, the princess mansion of Nuoda can't be seen by anyone. Except for a few guards.
"The palace has given them a holiday, and I want to eat cake."
"I don't have the strength to do it, you want to starve me to death, do you know how to murder my husband?"
"I... Want... Eat... Cake. "Chu Chu doesn't care.
"Okay, eat cake, you do chores. Isn't it your birthday cake? ”
"Mr. Zhang's birthday."
"Ah, what a coincidence? That's going to be big. Liu Aoting is grateful to Zhang Zishan, this respectable old man, loyal, stubborn, and backbone.
Beat eggs, and flour, beat cream, and tone. While waiting for the bread to cook, Liu Ao was fed a bowl of very delicious lotus seed porridge by Chu Chu. It's just sweet and a little greasy.
took a shower while he was in a hurry, and then under Chu Chu's curious gaze, he smeared cream on the cake.
After a while, a three-tiered cake was made, with fruit and ninety-three strawberries, representing the old man who was ninety-three years old. I made the shape of an eagle, and the old man's favorite was the eagle. Eagle claw skill is one of the old man's mastery.
"It's my birthday, what are you going to get me on?"
"Get a little white sheep, I like to eat little white sheep the most, the hairless kind."
"I'm going to die ...... you"
At dinner, the cake was placed in front of Zhang Zishan. Zhang Zishan has eaten the cake, but he has never seen this kind of birthday cake.
"Listen to Chu Chu, today is your old birthday, Ping An and Chu Chu made a birthday cake together, I wish you a long and long life, happy birthday to Mr. Zhang!"
Xiaodong had been impatient to look around the cake, and had heard his sisters say that the cake made by his brother was delicious, especially the birthday cake, and he wanted to eat it for a long time, but unfortunately he didn't have a birthday, and his brother was too lazy to make it.
"What a birthday, a year is less. I have a heart. Zhang Zishan said this in his mouth, and his beard trembled, indicating that he still liked it in his heart.
"Master, make a wish, make a wish." Xiaodong knew that he had to make a wish for the money for eating cake. Zhang Zishan, who couldn't twist it, closed his eyes and then opened them, "The old man also tastes this fresh thing." ”
Xiaodong proudly cut the cake. First give the master a piece, Liu Ao a piece, Chu Chu a piece, even Bi Changchun divided a piece, and then cut a big piece for himself, hold it and gnaw it, Liu Ao estimated, she estimated that she would not have to eat tomorrow after eating this piece......
