Tiankuo saw that she was stunned, and he also felt that his tone of voice was a little heavy, so he said softly, "I am...... I'm afraid that you will fall, don't take it to heart. ”

Siqi smiled slightly, "How could I be angry?" I know that Brother Tiankuo is for my good. ”

Siqi glanced ahead, everyone had already gone a little far, and going to the place where there was cotton happened to be a different way.

She smiled and said, "Brother Tiankuo, can you accompany me over there?" I'm afraid I'm going to fall. ”

Seeing that she was not angry, Tiankuo was very happy, and quickly nodded, "Okay, I'll accompany you wherever you go, you are not allowed to walk around in this mountain forest." ”

There was a dogwood on the side of the road that grew very well, red, and Tiankuo picked a small bunch, and suddenly became nervous.

Siqi turned around and talked to him, it was like chasing ducks to the shelves, Tiankuo hurriedly said, "Siqi, this plant grows well, you wear this." ”

Siqi raised a smile and nodded without hesitation, "Okay, I'll put it on." ”

She took it and wanted to wear it herself, but it turned out that the old plug was not good, and Tiankuo stepped forward to help her, and she was really nervous.

The two of them walked over there together, and they arrived after a while, Siqi looked at the snow-white cotton, and his heart was excited.

Cotton, really cotton, that's great.

Although she has been here a few times, this time she is the most excited, with these things, she can try to plant next year, save a year to plant, and if she can, then persuade her family to take some land out and grow cotton.

Siqi took a basket and hurriedly ran over to pick cottonseeds, there was cotton on it, and she didn't lose it, she put it all into the basket.

At this time, only cotton was grown in the Western Regions, that is, around Xinjiang, and the Central Plains had not yet developed, and most people did not know about this thing.

The climate here is not too much of a problem, but the light is not so abundant, and the yield and quality of cotton will be affected somewhat, and there will be no problems in general.

As long as she relies on these cotton seeds to successfully set aside and plant more, she will have a source of income.

Cotton is not widely planted, but it doesn't mean that the people won't agree with it, cotton cloth is so soft, everyone will like it.

At this time, the clothes were mainly linen, the rich and noble families could wear silk, the warm filling was silk cotton, and the slightly richer families could buy furs, mainly sheepskin.

If cotton can be widely cultivated in the Central Plains, it will completely subvert the living habits at this time.

Tiankuo saw her laughing while picking this kind of white flower, and was very puzzled, "Siqi, what are you doing picking this?" It's not pretty, either. ”

He still remembered that Siqi had brought him to this place before, but he didn't expect to come again, and this time it didn't bloom, I really don't understand.

Siqi smiled and said, "Brother Tiankuo, you see that this thing is soft and very comfortable to pinch, I just thought if I could take it back to renew the quilt, it should be quite warm." ”

Tiankuo understood when he heard it, and laughed, "That's it, then I'll help you pick it." ”

The two of them picked all the cotton and cotton seeds in a short time, and the basket they were carrying was not big enough, it was full.

Tiankuo saw her smiling happily, and he was very happy in his heart, and touched his head, "Siqi, are you so happy to pick such a thing back?" ”

Then he thought again, is it that the Lin family is having a hard time, otherwise how can Siqi find these things outside and go back to renew the quilt?

remembered that his sister got married before, and the Lin family also gave a bed of 100 quilts, maybe there is no one in his house.

Si Qi looked at Tiankuo, saw him frowning, and didn't know what he was thinking, so he smiled, "This thing is very soft, I think it's much better than silk, I'll take it back to my mother to see, if my mother says okay, it will be used to renew the quilt." ”

Tiankuo nodded, still wondering if the Lin family couldn't get by, he wanted to say that if there was any difficulty, he would tell him, but after thinking about it, he didn't have any ability, what could he help?

Alas, he's useless.

If Si Qi knew Tiankuo's thoughts at this time, he would probably laugh so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist, but he didn't expect her to get such a thing back, which made Tiankuo think that the Lin family was too poor to open the pot.

The two of them returned to the side of the road together, and Siqi glanced up, "My eldest brother shouldn't have come down the mountain yet, Brother Tiankuo, you want to go up, right?" Then tell them that I will go home first, so that they will not be in a hurry. ”

Tiankuo said worriedly, "You want to go back by yourself?" I'd better follow you. ”

Si Qi smiled, "It's not far down the mountain here, I'll just go down the mountain myself." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Tiankuo to answer, she turned around and walked down the mountain, this had to be quickly taken back and handed to Xuan's, and after a while, it was said that Xuan's asked her to pick it.

In the middle of the morning, after the adults returned from the mountain, they went down to work in the field, Xuan's happened to be washing clothes at home, Siqi went home and pulled her into the house, and whispered, "Mother, I saw this on the mountain, it is soft, it can be used to renew the quilt, and I will take it back." ”

Xuan's was stunned, he really hadn't seen this thing, "This is used to renew the quilt?" ”

Siqi nodded, "How soft this is, I see that there are hard seeds in it, it should be seeds, let's plant it next year, and it will be much better in the future." ”

Xuan touched her head, "This is also what the old woman told you?" ”

Siqi looked around, looking cautious, "Well, my mother said, you can't say such a thing, you have to tell your father and mother first, I don't dare to let everyone know, so I came back early." ”

Xuan's smiled, "Yes, that's how it should be, my mother knows, you go play." ”

"Okay." She was relieved to hand it over to Xuan's, and then used this method to let Xuan's help her grow cotton.

Although it's a bit of a god's chatter, it's the most convenient, and God is God.

Xuan's pinching the cotton in the house, it's really good, it's very soft, and it's very warm to pinch, maybe this method is really good.

She was happy and anxious at the same time, what did the goddess in her son's dream want to do to her daughter? Is it good or bad?

Today is a festival, the meal is still more sumptuous, and at noon, I saw what to eat during the traditional Chung Yeung Festival.

The meals are still those, but there is one more thing, a steamed rice cake mixed with yellow chrysanthemum flowers picked from the mountain, called Chongyang cake.

This is also the custom to eat every year during the Double Ninth Festival, and a small jar of wine was also moved on the main table, which was brewed with chrysanthemums during the Double Ninth Festival last year.

It is to put the wine and koji and the chrysanthemums that have been washed and dried together to seal the altar, and wait until the Chung Yeung Festival in the second year to open again, which is chrysanthemum brewing.

Don't talk about drinking, even if you haven't heard of it, it seems that there is no such custom in her previous life, at least around her.
