As the days passed, Xiaocao, who had planned to spend time in Dongshan Village until the end of February, was quickly disrupted. On the sixteenth day of Dongshan Village, an uninvited guest came.

"Zhu Junyang, why are you here? Don't say it in advance, do a surprise inspection, you! Yu Xiaocao got off the mountain early in the morning, returned home and saw a few more horses in front of the door, and found Zhu Junyang sitting on the kang with a golden knife, eating the nuts she fried years ago, and a small pile of peeled pecan kernels were stored on the small plate next to her.

Zhu Junyang raised his eyebrows at her, crushed another pecan in his hand, carefully picked out the kernel inside, and put it on a small plate. After doing this, he spoke: "Didn't you want to surprise you?" How? Not welcome? Is it that with Brother Han by his side, he has long left his master behind? ”

For Xiao Shi's mouthful of "Brother Han", this master has long been unhappy in his heart. You must know that there is such a big-tailed wolf waiting, he has already accompanied the little girl back to save relatives, spend the New Year in Dongshan Village, and then return to Beijing together. The little girl has been back for more than a month, I wonder if that guy took advantage of his absence to be courteous?

"Oops! Whoever knocked over the vinegar jar in this house, it smelled sour! The silver fox fur cloak that Yu Xiaocao untied was taken by Wutong and hung on the pear blossom wood hanger.

Seeing that Xiaocao's face was red from the cold, Zhu Junyang let out the warmest kang head. Xiaocao took off her shoes and sat down, and he put the small quilt on his lap and covered her legs and feet. Then he pointed to the pecan kernels he had peeled, and scolded with a smile:

"You little conscienceless, you have a lot of fun in Dongshan Village, right? It's been more than a month since I came out, and I don't know how to write a letter to my grandfather. This early in the morning, I went to the mountains, wouldn't it be with the person surnamed Zhao? ”

Yu Xiaocao grabbed a small handful of walnut kernels and stuffed them into her mouth, her cheeks bulged out one after another, and her big eyes turned into curved crescents, like a little squirrel eating pine cones with satisfaction. Hearing this, she glanced at Zhu Junyang and said, "Are you as idle as Brother Han?" People go to sea to train their troops, how can they have the leisure to set rabbits? ”

"Brother Han...... It's quite affectionate. Why have I never heard you call me 'Brother Yang'? Zhu Junyang's heart was sour, the little girl always called him by his name, and she was not polite at all.

Yu Xiaocao saw that he stopped peeling walnuts, and hurriedly clapped his hands, reminding him that he was waiting, hearing his sour words, he looked up at him, and said: "Call him Brother Han, treat him as a brother." Still is...... You want to be my brother too? ”

"I don't want to!" Not at all! Zhu Junyang saw that the walnut kernels on the plate were disappearing at a rapid speed, and he hurriedly sped up the speed of pinching the walnuts, "However, you are not very satisfied with the title of the master." ”

"What do you want me to call you? Junyang? Yang? Little Yang'er? Yang baby?? As the fleshy names blurted out, Yu Xiaocao was pleasantly surprised to find that the roots of Zhu Junyang's ears were actually red.

Zhu Junyang's dowry coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said: "When I was young, I once gave myself a word called 'Ruizhi', which only a few close people knew......"

"Okay, then I'll call you Ruizhi!" Yu Xiaocao is as good as a stream, "Zhu Ruizhi, the walnut kernels are gone, I still want to eat them!" ”

"Eat less snacks and have breakfast hot in the pot for you!" As soon as the Liu family entered the door, he heard the voice of his youngest daughter Da Lalama instructing King Yangjun to help peel pecans, and couldn't help but glare at her.

"Pecan kernels are put into porridge and become nut porridge, which is also delicious!" Yu Xiaocao quibbled, her little hand secretly stretched out to the walnut kernel that Zhu Junyang had peeled, and quickly stuffed a piece in her mouth, looking like a little squirrel stealing food.

The Liu family couldn't control her, so he said to Zhu Junyang: "King Yangjun, don't get used to her!" Throughout the lunar month and the first lunar month, she ate snacks as meals every day, and she didn't like to eat the main meal! Everyone has grown a few pounds of meat during the New Year, but she is good, she didn't say anything, and she looked thinner. ”

Facing Zhu Junyang's scrutinizing gaze, Yu Xiaocao hurriedly defended: "Who said I lost weight? Look at my little face, it's almost like a bun face. As a mother, she always feels that her children are thin, and she wants to desperately raise people into little fat pigs. ”

"Pig farming?" Liu Shi nodded her head, put away all the pecans and hazelnuts on the kang table, asked Yingchun to put the porridge, buns and side dishes on the table, and said, "If the pig farm is all like you, it is estimated that the pig farmers will lose the bottom!" ”

"Mother-did you say that about your daughter? I'm such a delicate and beautiful female doll that I am compared to a stinky pig. I'm angry! Yu Xiaocao took the opportunity to be coquettish with her mother.

Liu pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I didn't say it first, it was you who first compared pig raising to yourself." This pot, my mother doesn't carry it! Eat them all, or you won't be allowed to eat snacks all day today! ”

Yu Xiaocao looked at the two meat buns bigger than his fist and a big bowl of porridge, and immediately wrinkled his little face, and said, "Mother, let's discuss, I'll eat a bun, okay?" ”

"No! I ate a small half bowl of noodles last night, and I didn't eat more in the morning, you want to become a fairy! Liu resolutely rejected her bargain, "Hurry up and eat it while it's hot, the buns are made of the roe deer meat you brought back, but it's fresh!" ”

Yu Xiaocao's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled brightly at Zhu Junyang, who was watching the mother and daughter play sharply, and said, "Ruizhi-you haven't had breakfast yet, have you?" Let's eat together! ”

Liu slapped her little hand that handed the bun in the direction of Zhu Junyang, and said with a straight face: "King Yangjun has already eaten with us, don't think about stuffing it to others." I've calculated, if you eat all of this, your stomach will be swollen at most, and it won't hold you up! ”

Yu Xiaocao threw a pitiful little look at Zhu Junyang. But Zhu Junyang faced the burning gaze of his future mother-in-law, and could only make a helpless expression towards the little girl. With his mother-in-law on one side and his daughter-in-law on the other, Zhu Junyang had to lower his head, pretend to be very busy, and continue to peel walnuts.

Yu Xiaocao resigned herself to picking up a meat bun, chewing it with salty, fragrant and delicious side dishes, chewing it one bite at a time, the two meat buns were eaten, she poured the walnut kernels peeled by Zhu Junyang into her white porridge, added some raisins and hawthorn cakes, and snorted and drank a fine drink. Uh-hmmh

Seeing that the youngest daughter was leaning on the quilt without sitting down, Liu glared at her with a smile and said, "The weather is fine today, you can rest for a while, take the king of Yangjun around the village, and consume food by the way." At noon, cook your favorite seafood dinner. Braised prawns, salt-and-pepper yellow croaker, steamed scallops, stir-fried squid ......"

Yu Xiaocao didn't have the opportunity to eat seafood in her previous life, but after crossing over, she had a soft spot for seafood, and the seafood made by her mother tasted great. In order to eat seafood with an empty stomach, Xiaocao pulled Zhu Junyang and walked back and forth in the courtyard halfway up the mountain. Originally, she wanted to walk around the village, but as soon as she came into contact with the curious eyes of the villagers, she changed her mind.

When King Yangjun came to his fiefdom, he naturally had to accept the visit of Tang Gu officials, and by the way, he checked the taxes. After the rise of the Yu family's greenhouse vegetables, it drove some industries in Tanggu, and even the tax revenue increased by nearly two percent.

Yu Xiaocao has already told him about building a breeding base in Tanggu and has won Zhu Junyang's full support. Decisions to encourage land reclamation have also been adopted. As for the land needed for the farm, Zhu Junyang directly expropriated the fields of the squires and landlords, and won praise by reducing or reducing taxes on other industries. Some businessmen feel that it is profitable, and even squeeze their heads to contribute their Zhuangzi, which does not produce much. Of course, those who are far away from Yujia Zhuangzi are directly ignored.

After the summer harvest, when it was time to plant corn, the Yu family's farm had begun to take shape. There are more than 20,000 acres of high-grade fertile land alone, and the sum of medium and inferior fields is not less than this number. With a farm of nearly 40,000 acres, the annual output can be seen.

There are red-eyed officials in the court, and they give Yu Xiaocao eye medicine in front of the emperor. said that she received an errand from the imperial court, and she was not good at being an errand, patronizing for the benefit of her family. Those who are closer to Xiaocao naturally want to help her speak. said that she was sharing the worries of the imperial court and making great contributions to the promotion of high-yield crops. Another storm arose in the court, and the verbal arguments about Yu Xiaocao's behavior unfolded again.

However, these little grasses are completely ignored. Regarding the establishment of a breeding base in Tanggu, she reported it to the emperor in advance, and the emperor also expressed his support. The early promotion of high-yield corn and winter wheat will enable his subjects to overcome hunger and cold and move towards a moderately prosperous society.

As long as the "big boss" above her head is on her side, whatever others say has nothing to do with her. She doesn't want any false fame, don't those who impeach her just make money with her eyes? She has to make a lot of money to make them greedy to the end!

Now under Yu Hai's hands, there are already a group of experienced tenants, and no matter how big the stall is here, there are not many things that require Xiaocao to come out in person. Her task was nothing more than to soak all the seeds with spiritual power in advance.

This process is simple, but it is very necessary. Yu Xiaocao made the little mending heaven stone take the form of a cat, running through the mountains of warehouses with chicken soup, rolling a few times, spitting a few saliva, or sprinkling a few pees - the last option was verified by the little mending stone to protest. He is a civilized mending god stone, how could he do such an uncivilized thing?

In short, Tanggu's breeding base, with Yu Hai at the helm, Yu Hang's help, and the joint efforts of several stewards he promoted, is proceeding in an orderly manner. In addition, the farm has Yangjun Wang as the backstage, so it is natural that the green light will be green all the way, and it will be smooth sailing......
