After returning from the county seat, Zhao Mo was busy.

They received three new varieties of grain, all three of which she knew: sweet potato, pumpkin and pepper.

She also knew that these three things had not been popularized in the Song Dynasty, no matter what, it was the time of spring ploughing, and it was just time to bring them back for planting.

She soaked the seeds she had brought back in warm water and took them to dry.

"Sister, if you soak the seeds in hot water, won't you really soak them to death?" Zhao Li blinked as she spread the seeds on the bamboo mat and asked.

"Of course not."

Zhao Mo arranged the pepper seeds and explained, "These seeds are all coming in from far away, and there are some small insects on their bodies, which can be soaked to death by soaking them in not very hot water, and they will grow better when they are planted in the ground." ”

Zhao Rong interjected: "What if you use very hot water to blister?" ”

"Some seeds can be blistered in very hot water, such as pumpkin seeds. If the pumpkin has not yet broken, be sure to soak it in freshly boiled water, and then immediately pick it up and put it in cold water to cool down. Wash it several times and wash off all the mucus before you can take it out to dry. But just now we got back all pumpkin seeds, which saved us a lot of trouble. ”

Zhao Rong looked at her with straight eyes: "How did my sister know this?" ”

Zhao Mo was stunned, touched his head with a smile, and said casually: "Some people will suddenly become crazy and stupid after experiencing a great change in life and death, while some people will suddenly open their minds, as if they have grown up in an instant." ”

She looked at the two little beans who were half clear and half ignorant, and sighed, "No matter which one it is, didn't you say that my sister was out of breath at that time?" You should think that Lord Yama feels sorry for you and brings your sister back. ”

"Sister!" Zhao Li suddenly hugged her, "I don't want my sister to leave us!" ”

Zhao Rong is more sensible than Zhao Li, he understands that his sister is still a little different after all, but hasn't he changed himself?

No matter what, at least my sister is still guarding them!

"Sister, no matter what you become, you will always be our sister!"

Sooner or later, her abnormality will be discovered by the two sensitive little beans who have been by her side, and she is just talking about it today, which will also save her from worrying.

Watching them clumsily comfort her, her lonely heart warmed slightly.

There are a total of nine thread groups brought back, and there are not only velvet thread clusters, but also embroidery thread clusters, and the embroidery thread groups are all six fine threads as one strand, which is very fine.

She set the meadow aside, and picked a slightly thinner ball of thread and put it together.

After the rest of the threads were arranged according to the color from light to dark, she picked up the white and brown threads and made two large and two small balls of thread, tied up part of the thread of the large ball with a red string, and then trimmed it into an oval shape with scissors.

After doing this, she took a needle and thread, fixed the small ball of brown thread to the big ball, took a little bit of black thread, and made a large and two small round ball of thread and sewed it on the ball of brown thread.

Finally, two pieces of felt cloth were cut out into long ovals and fixed on both sides of the big ball, and the last small brown ball was sewn behind him.

"Wow! It's a dog! ”

Zhao Li looked at the plush string dog in Zhao Mo's hand in surprise, and her eyebrows fluttered with joy.

In just a quarter of an hour, the three-colored ball of thread conjured into a small and cute long-eared puppy in her hand, and the two little beans were dumbfounded.

"Do you like it?" Zhao Mo smiled and put the puppy on the table and pushed it towards the two.

Zhao Rong suddenly took the dog away: "Sister, give this dog to me!" ”

"No! I'm going to! ”

Zhao Li immediately stretched out her hand to snatch it back, but unfortunately Zhao Rong dodged it one step earlier.

In the end, the dog was still monopolized by Zhao Rong, Zhao Li looked at Zhao Mo aggrievedly, and she made a different dog for her.

The puppy is cute and palm-sized, making it just right for small children to play with.

She wanted to make some small dolls, and if the store would buy them, it would be better, and if she didn't, she would have to go to the street and sell them herself.

For the next few days, she was busy in the field and at home.

The land in the backyard is half an acre in size, which was originally used to build a house, but it has not been started, so I simply ploughed and planted things.

Not only can you get the sun here, but there are also ditches flowing through it. She took Zhao Rong and the others into the mountains to pick up some rotten leaves and cover them as fertilizer, and now the land is extremely fertile.

In addition to farming, she wants to teach Zhao Rong and Zhao Mo to make all kinds of dolls. Zhao Rong's handiwork is a little worse, but he has a soft spot for flowers and plants, and he makes it very vividly.

In this way, they do a lot of variety.

A few days later, she and Li Yuan made an appointment to go into the city together, and this time Zhao Rong and the others stayed at home to continue making dolls, and she took the finished products made during this time to sell.

Li Yuan knew that she had bought a thread group last time and made some small things to bring to the city to sell, and after reading it, she was very surprised, and secretly praised her for her ingenuity, so he introduced her to the pocket shop to try it.

Zhao Mo, who was at a loss, was very grateful: "Brother Li, if I sell these things today, I will invite you to eat meat powder at noon!" ”

The price in Li County is not expensive, the meat buns cost a penny, and the meat noodles cost five pennies a bowl, even if she can't sell them, she can afford it. If she can't sell it, she doesn't have the heart to eat it.

Li Yuanlang smiled: "Then I'm welcome!" ”

*

The pocket shop really lives up to its name, the store is small, but the goods inside are varied, dazzling, and there are not many customers entering and exiting, both men and women.

In the middle of the store, a curtain separates men and women.

She observed for a long time, and after having a rough plan in her head, she walked to the store with her feet up.

As soon as I stepped in, I was greeted by a female helper in a blue jacket and skirt, and she quickly circled around herself in a coarse cloth shirt and greeted her with a smile.

"What does the little girl need to buy?"

"I made an appointment with your shopkeeper, I wonder if he has time now?"

Zhao Mo looked at the female helper with a smile, her big apricot eyes flashing slightly. At this time, there were not many customers in the store on the woman's side, so she had the audacity to lie directly.

The female helper looked at the little girl with double braids on her head with slightly upturned almond eyes suspiciously: "Does the girl have a certificate?" ”

Zhao Mo shook his head: "He only told me that if you find something, you can come to the store to look for him directly." ”

Seeing that she said something solemnly, with a serious face, and hearing that she was looking for something, the female helper suddenly didn't dare to perfunctory, and immediately went to the backyard to ask the shopkeeper.

The backyard and the front store are also separated by a reed curtain, which lifts the curtain and passes through a long folding corridor, bypassing a garden with rockeries and a small flower hall.

In the flower hall sat a man in his thirties in a navy blue silk shirt, he was looking down at the account book with his eyebrows twisted, and he was moving an abacus made of jade in one hand.

Hearing the footsteps, he raised his head and glanced at Zhao Mo, and was stunned for a moment.

"You're the one who said I told you to find me?"

Zhao Mo unhurriedly slammed at him to the end, and then said calmly:

"Shopkeeper Song, forgive me! I am Zhao Mo from Huaxi Village, and I had to deceive the shopkeeper, because I didn't want your store to miss an opportunity to be promoted to the first merchant position in Li County
