"Princess, what are you doing with so many beans?"

Green Calyx looked at the sacks of beans and really couldn't figure it out.

Lin Ruan checked the situation of those beans, and they were all okay, "Grow vegetables and eat them." Come, pour these beans into water and soak them for a long time. ”

Several soldiers followed Lin Ruan's instructions and poured out a sack of mung beans, divided them into many buckets, and soaked them in clean water.

The green calyx stared at the rows of barrels, what kind of vegetables can beans grow?

Lin Ruan didn't explain much to her, the beans were soaked here, and the other side directed people to smooth out the sand that was transported, and then sprinkled with water.

Some soldiers heard that Lin Ruan was going to grow vegetables for everyone to eat, and they all came over to see the excitement.

It was very close to the tent of the miscellaneous battalion, and the laughter of the soldiers reached the tent.

Xiang Ruyue was lying on the bed, and when she heard the voice outside, she couldn't help but ask, "Why is it so lively outside?" ”

A handyman said: "I heard that the princess of the protector wants to grow vegetables for the soldiers in the barracks to eat, the princess is really a good person, and she is the lucky star of our Great Zhou." Wherever the princess goes, the people will be able to live a good life. Now that the princess has come to northern Xinjiang, the hard days of wanting to come to northern Xinjiang are coming to an end. ”

Most of the miscellaneous servants in the barracks were criminals who had been assigned, and they generally committed crimes that were fatal, but more serious than imprisonment.

The mother-in-law who spoke was naturally no exception.

These women, who are usually assigned to the barracks, are all sent to the military prostitute camp when they are young, and they are naturally assigned to the miscellaneous service camp when they are old.

The days of the miscellaneous camp are very hard, and there are endless things to do every day. After all, with such a large army, just washing the clothes of these soldiers is a big project.

And Xiang Ruyue is particularly eye-catching among these mothers-in-law.

She is young and very delicate, although the wind and sand in the past three years have made her no longer smart, but after all, she is young, in her twenties, no matter how haggard she is, she still has the figure and face of a young woman.

Xiang Ruyue looked weak, pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Yes, the princess of the country is the lucky star of the Great Zhou, with her, the good life of the common people will come to an end." It's a pity that our identity is the same as that of ordinary people? ”

Originally, the mother-in-law was quite happy, but when she heard Xiang Ruyue's words, her mood became irritable, and she glared at her impatiently, "When will your injury be healed?" You've been dragging us down to death these days, we're too busy with our own work, and you're splitting your share, and we're so tired that our bones are falling apart. ”

Xiang Ruyue hurriedly apologized: "Mother Wu, I'm sorry, I'm dragging everyone down, I'll get better as soon as possible." When I'm ready, I'll try to do more to answer you. ”

Seeing her like this, Mother Wu didn't say much, snorted, turned her head and walked out of the tent.

There was no one else in the tent, Xiang Ruyue cautiously turned over, got up and went to the window, hid behind and looked outside, only to see a large group of soldiers in the distance helping to spread the sand.

Because Lin Ruan said that this kind of vegetable would only take a few days to harvest, the soldiers were all looking forward to it.

The supplies on the northern side of Xinjiang are really limited, even if there are very few edible vegetables, and the vegetable fields reclaimed in the barracks are planted with some very common vegetables and sweet potatoes, and they are tired of eating sweet potato leaves.

Now that there is a new dish to eat, everyone is naturally very happy and runs to help, hoping to have more varieties, so as to ensure that everyone can eat it.

Lin Ruan saw that the sand was almost paved and the beans had already been soaked, so he asked the beans to be drained, sprinkled evenly on the sand, and then spread another thick layer of wet sand on top.

The upper and lower layers of sand add up to more than 20 centimeters thick.

Finally, they were asked to go to the war horse shed and drag a few bales of grass over and cover them with sand, and the planting was completed.

This is the first time everyone has seen this planting method, so someone asked, "Princess, how can you eat these beans when you grow them like this?" Do you wait for them to grow and bear pods? ”

Lin Ruan explained with a smile: "This is called planting bean sprouts, that is, the sprouts of beans, stir-fried vegetables or soup with bean sprouts, which are very tender and delicious, which are not comparable to ordinary vegetables." The sprouts take a short time to grow, usually in three to four days, and then they can be dug out of the sand and washed. ”

Originally, there was a more water-efficient method, which was to wear the bean sprouts in a container and send them, but there were so many soldiers in this barracks, how much manpower and material resources would be needed to meet the conditions by that method?

And now that the weather is still warm, it is the most convenient way to use sand to sprout, and the method of using containers can be reserved for winter.

The soldiers only finished Lin Ruan's explanation, and they all called it magical, and they also found that the princess of the protector was really good at talking, without a little arrogance.

Xiang Ruyue hid in the tent, her hands tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, and her eyes were glued to Lin Ruan.

Protector Princess Lin Nguyen! The culprit who caused her family to be ruined and suffered!

It's ridiculous! For the past three years, she has been thinking about the person who rescued her from the soldiers and saved her from becoming the lowest military prostitute, and the person she regarded as having the grace of reinvention is the one who caused her to fall here!

Thinking of the beheaded father, the aunt who hanged herself, and the brothers and sisters who were sent to various military camps, the hatred in Xiang Ruyue's eyes wished that she could turn into an arrow and shoot at Lin Ruan.

Lin Ruan sensed the malice and didn't even have to turn his head. A taunt flashed in his eyes, and an ability casually flung into the tent.

"Ahhh

The soldiers were watching the excitement around the freshly baked bean sprouts when they suddenly heard a scream, and when they turned their heads, they saw Xiang Ruyue screaming and rushing out of the tent.

A few enthusiastic soldiers stepped forward and asked, "Miss Xiang, what's wrong?" ”

Xiang Ruyue clutched her chest in panic and said, "Snakes, there are snakes, there are snakes in the tent." ”

When several soldiers heard about it, they enthusiastically went into the tent to help catch the snake, but after looking around, they found no trace of the snake. "Xiang girl, do you really see clearly? I didn't find any snakes in the tent. ”

Xiang Ruyue nodded with red eyes: "I can really see clearly, a black snake is at least as thick as a child's arm." ”

The soldiers went into the tent again, but found nothing.

Xiang Ruyue was a little skeptical that she was wrong.

At this time, that Wu Pozi suddenly jumped out: "Xiang Ruyue, didn't you say that your injuries are not healed?" ”

Xiang Ruyue was stunned for a moment, and stammered: "I...... Mother Wu, my injuries are indeed not healed, I ......"

"Phew! I think you're a cheap embryo just using this guise to be lazy and tricky! Mrs. Wu didn't eat Xiang Ruyue's set, she crossed her waist and pointed at her nose and scolded.
