Chapter 840: Mrs. Li's solo show time

And at this moment in the capital.

Bai Jinli is teaching Mrs. Li and others to grow vegetables.

Yes, that's right, grow greenhouses.

Because the weather is cold, there are a lot fewer varieties of vegetables on the market, especially green vegetables, which are simply pitiful.

Even if there were, it was ridiculously expensive.

Since she became pregnant, her tastes have become more and more tricky.

Sometimes I suddenly want to eat ice cream, sometimes I want to eat hot pot, sometimes I want to eat cold vegetables, or strawberry-flavored watermelon.

Most of the things she wants to eat can still be satisfied at home.

But if what she said was really weird, then there was no choice but to find a way to come up with something else to try to attract her attention.

Honestly, there's room for this cheating artifact, but she can find anything she wants to eat.

But the problem is that she wants to live in Baifu, and since she wants to live, she can't just move things out of the space when she has nothing to do.

It's okay once or twice, but if it's too much, it will inevitably not attract the attention of others.

As for the creatures like greens, they can grow them themselves.

After planting, it can not only be eaten openly, but also placed on the bright side.

It's not just greens, but all the vegetables they can think of in ancient times can be grown, including strawberries.

With this in mind, Bai Jinli instructed the people in the house to go outside to buy all kinds of vegetable seeds, as well as materials for building greenhouses.

Hearing Bai Jinli say that she could find a way to grow the vegetables she wanted to eat in winter, Mrs. Li suddenly became interested.

She took her close grandmother and maid to start growing vegetables every day after the greenhouse was set up.

Planting vegetables, feeding ducks, feeding geese, cows, milking cows, practicing calligraphy, playing chess, square dancing, etc., today's life of Mrs. Li can be described as very fulfilling.

In any case, it takes some time for the greenhouse vegetables to mature, so taking advantage of this effort, Bai Jinli instructed the people in the family to soak a lot of bean sprouts and bean seedlings.

After buying the vegetable seeds, Bai Jinli took advantage of the family's inattention and secretly replaced those vegetable seeds with the vegetable seeds produced in the space.

The seeds were then treated according to the instructions.

The eggplant seeds are subjected to a rapid temperature change method, and the spinach seeds have a firm skin, which needs to be softened in the germination test.

Celery seeds, on the other hand, do not need to be softened due to their small kernels and volatile oils, but they do need to change in light and dark.

Cabbage radish requires a high temperature when germinating.

Put the leeks and green onion seeds in a petri dish, pour boiling water and heat for a quarter of an hour, pick out the sprouted seeds, and then pour boiling water and boil.

……

After the preparations, she also took the opportunity to improve the water quality in her home.

Next, it is Mrs. Li's personal show time.

In the past, Mrs. Li basically didn't do any heavy work at home, either scolding people or on the way to find trouble and then scolding people.

And now, she has taken on the great responsibility of growing the dishes she wants to eat for her daughter, and she is naturally very concerned.

Daily watering is strictly in accordance with the time to water, and even the amount of watering is calculated very clearly, and the temperature in the greenhouse is also very strictly controlled.

As for the child soldiers under her, Tan Xiaohua, Yu Huan, Bai Mo, Xiaobao, Qi Song, etc., they will also come to help her after finishing their studies.

Mainly, the little ones also want to see how they can grow vegetables that they want to eat but can't eat in the winter.

If these dishes are grown by them, it will be very rewarding to eat them at that time.

When the vegetables were planted in the greenhouse for almost a week, Bai Jinli heard some rumors.

It is said that because of the exceptionally cold winter this year, several places in the Great Qi Kingdom have been hit by heavy snowfall.

At this time, it snowed hard, causing people's houses to be crushed, not to mention, clothing, food, food and housing became a huge problem.

When this news reached His Majesty's ears, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

After shouting the people of the four departments, the left and right prime ministers, the prince and the princes arrived at the imperial study, Qi Heng raised the issue of the northern blizzard.

He first asked about the current state treasury of the Ministry of Households.

Fortunately, this year, there are buses and horse-drawn carriages, and the operation of public transport and donkey carts has generated a lot of revenue for the household department, so that the current state treasury is not in a state of serious internal deficit.

In fact, for disaster relief, it is also possible to distribute some food from other places.

As a result of the research on over-yielding rice, the grain output in several places is almost five or six times that of last year.

And the potatoes he got from outside from which country he didn't know, which were very productive and could be used for food.

Not to mention that Lin Shenyuan had donated a large amount of grain to the granary of the state treasury before sending troops to the border pass, which could be taken out for emergencies.

Of course, the crisis remains.

How to resettle the victims, who to send to the disaster, how to distribute the food after it has been delivered.

How to ensure that food can reach the victims safely.

Whether Blizzard will continue, and if so, what kind of follow-up problems will it bring.

As the year draws to a close, is there any other way to fill the treasury?

The border war is still going on, and some veteran ministers of the DPRK and China have put forward the concept of putting peace first.

How to continue the war, if it continues, there will still be a steady stream of support from the imperial court.

There seems to be a restless little move on the side of the Suzaku Country, that is, at this time, the people on the prince's side took the opportunity to propose that the princess of the Suzaku Country should be restored to the position of the prince's side concubine to stabilize diplomatic relations.

Qi Heng scolded the man without thinking, and then someone suggested whether to choose a princess from the Great Qi Country to go to the Vermilion Bird Country to make peace and stabilize the border state.

……

Countless problems are in front of him, and Qi Heng, as His Majesty, has a headache.

In the end, the task of disaster relief was assigned to the crown prince by His Majesty.

After some discussion, everyone else withdrew from the imperial study, and Laifu handed it to Qi Heng with a cup of hot tea and asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, why don't you rest for a while? The old slave helps you press your head? ”

"Forget about resting, I still have a lot of excerpts that I haven't read, you come here, help me press it." Qi Heng rubbed his temples, with a hint of exhaustion on his face.

"Huh!"

The imperial study was burned with fine silver filigree charcoal, and incense was lit with a very faint smell.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, feeling Laifu's hand gently rubbing his head, Qi Heng's tense heart gradually eased a little.

Wars, disasters, and internal affairs in the court made Qi Heng feel a little confused.

Could it be that because His Majesty is not competent enough and has not governed Daqi well, so many problems will arise.

But in the blink of an eye, Bai Jinli's clean adoring eyes appeared in Qi Heng's mind.

Last time, after he used some small means to pull Bai Jinli into the whirlpool of the court, he also asked Bai Jinli if he thought that his majesty was very useless.

At that time, Bai Jinli shook her head without thinking, and then praised him in a very firm tone.

Her pupils were black and white, clean and pure, and she spoke of his exploits full of adoration.

It's like the kind of admiration and love that the youngest daughter in the family has for her elders.

She said that she had heard a lot of things about his majesty from the ears of Xianggong Lin Shenyuan, and she had also seen a lot of changes with her own eyes.

The Great Qi State has only been established for a hundred years, and it is particularly normal for various problems to exist.

As a diligent and full of people, he did a good job.

Even, Bai Jinli at that time also said his various exploits over the years word by word.

Now that he thinks about it, he suddenly stopped self-doubting.

Yes, no matter what, the Son of Heaven is also a human being, and he needs to complete and perfect everything little by little.

Since his accession to the throne, he has always adhered to his original heart and tried to be the best.

But if you think about it carefully, maybe it is really as the Taoist chief said, the appearance of Bai Jinli is doomed, and it is beneficial and harmless to Daqi.

Whether it is Lin Shenyuan, Bai Bai Yi or Bai Bai Qi, they are all people around Bai Jinli.

And it is these people who are quietly changing Daqi and making Daqi better little by little.

Without them, this disaster alone would have left him scathed.

"Laifu, send someone to call back the military department Shangshu."

"Yes, the old slave obeys."

If it's freezing today, he has to ask the military department how the black powder is made.

And whether the artillery wagon was successful or not.

If those things go to war, I'm afraid they can end this war soon.

When the war is over, peace will follow.

He's looking forward to it.

Baifuli.

Obviously, it has been less than a week, but because Mrs. Li's contrivance is reasonable and the temperature is in place, a large number of bean sprouts have grown out of her.

In addition to bean sprouts, there are also bean sprouts that look tender and green and delicious.

"Oh, Mama Zhao, pinch me quickly and let me know that this is not a dream! I really didn't expect that I would be able to grow these things in my lifetime. Mrs. Li was obviously very happy.

"Old lady, it's not a dream, it's true. Not only that, but even the garlic seedlings you planted have a lot of delicate seedlings. ”

"And those vegetables in the backyard shed, which have already sprouted, if the growth has been so good, I am afraid that it will not be able to eat in a month." Mama Zhao said in a slight tone.

She has always been by Mrs. Li's side, and after getting along with Mrs. Li for a long time, she naturally has feelings.

And when Mrs. Li was making those things, she was also on the side to help.

Now not only Mrs. Li has gained satisfaction, but even Mama Zhao feels strangely happy in her heart.

Not only that, but she also learned a lot from Mrs. Li.

"Okay, that's great, let's cut these sprouts and sprouts, yesterday my daughter said she wanted pancakes."

"It just so happens that this bean sprouts are very tender, and when the time comes, eat it in the pancakes, and then make a porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork in the kitchen, stir-fry two vegetables, and then some fruit."

"Oh, by the way, let's go to that shed in a moment and see how the strawberries are doing, are they growing? My daughter says she's been craving strawberries lately. ”

Listening to Mrs. Li's chatter, Mama Zhao also smiled and nodded.

"If I'm not mistaken, my daughter still raises mushrooms, and when my daughter comes back from outside, I'll have to ask her how to raise mushrooms?"

Mrs. Li is really getting more and more energetic, and she completely feels the fun of growing vegetables, and her thoughts can't help spreading.

"Old lady, if you plant so much, I'm afraid there is not enough land in the house, right?"

"It's okay, I have money, just let my son buy another large piece of land, and when the time comes, he can toss as much as he wants." Mrs. Li waved her hand very indifferently.

Ever since they got busy, they had a lot less time to see her.

But instead, they would send her money every once in a while.

The old family divided his fortune into two, sent one to the county lord's mansion, and gave her one part.

She only accepted half of what the boss sent, and the rest of the opportunity was either spent on Bai Mo or sent to Xiufang.

Although there is not much money, it is a good idea, and it is a lot of saving.

Tianqi will also give her money since she started business.

plus what the girl gave and what she saved herself.

If you want to buy a piece of land, it is more than enough.
