Chapter 537: Falling Peanuts

As soon as Jiang Xinyan's words were finished, Wei Dabin and Nie Cimeng had such expressions on their faces, and the others were so shocked that they could stuff eggs into their mouths.

Everyone was curious again, and Jiang Xinyan told them about the process of Chu Lixuan's defeat of the Western Chu general Hachi.

Her voice is melodious, her mouth is like a river, and the one she says is frustrating and subdued, and it is as if she is in the scene when she hears everyone.

Everyone's worship of their lord has risen to a new height, and the worship is like a surging river, endless.

Dai Yuntao received a letter from his father yesterday saying that it was rumored in the capital that the Dingxi Hou Mansion was rich and could actually feed the Zhenxi army for half a year.

Because the Zhenxi army was well fed, it had the strength to repel General Hachi, who was known as the god of war in Western Chu, in one fell swoop.

Many ministers in the imperial court were jealous, and the loyal ministers were only jealous, sighing, and had no other meaning.

However, the traitorous ministers secretly wanted to frame and kill the Dingxihou Mansion and clean up the Dingxihou Mansion in the name of the emperor.

The traitorous ministers can deprive and divide the family property of the Dingxi Hou Mansion, but now the war in the south is not over.

Xichu has not completely relented and no longer attacked the Yumen Pass, so the emperor did not let go of his mouth to find the stubble of Xihou Mansion.

I don't know if the emperor is also regretting the rectification of Zhennan Hou Chu Lixuan, and the people are circulating.

If Zhennanhou is not exiled, God will not let the locust grandfather come down to harm the crops, and the Nanban will not dare to invade the southern border easily.

Dai Yuntao's father said that there was a shortage of food in the capital, so they moved their family to the north, and the emperor didn't care, but just issued a secret order to ask his father about the origin of the food.

The emperor also thought that the grain from the north was made by the king of Zhenbei, and as for what was going on, even the commander of the Jinyi Guard did not find out.

How can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch, everything must be controlled in the hands of the emperor so that he can rest assured, how can the emperor allow the king of Zhenbei to have a large amount of food!

Even if it was his own brother, he couldn't, so the emperor assigned Dingbei Marquis to go to the northern border.

The emperor knew that the king of Zhenbei had seized the military power of the Marquis of Dingbei, and the Marquis of Dingbei would definitely take revenge on the king of Zhenbei.

As long as Chu Lixiang Dingbei Hou caught the pigtail of the king of Zhenbei, he would definitely report it to the emperor.

It turned out that all of this was their master's skill, the Xichu God of War was defeated by their lord, and the grain was given by their lord for nothing.

Dai Yuntao's father also told Dai Yuntao in the letter that if the Marquis of Dingxi was killed by traitors again, he was afraid that Dongchen Kingdom would be finished.

Helplessly, his father is soft-spoken, has no real power, and no one in the court listens to him, so he is disheartened and wants to return to the northern border.

In fact, Dai Yuntao's father is also the Marquis of Dingbei, and he doesn't want to return to this sad place.

Their Dai family has guarded the north for generations, and eighteen years ago the emperor took over the military power and ordered them to go to the capital.

The Marquis of Dingbei also has an empty name, and the good sons and daughters of the juniors are Dai Yuntao alone, and the other juniors have been ordered by him to learn literature, and they have become weak chickens who have no power to restrain chickens.

This time, Dai Yuntao was able to convince his father, or he played a trick and wrote to his grandmother to successfully persuade Dingbeihou.

The Dai family is also similar to the Chu family, the rest are women and children, and it can be said that almost all the sons and daughters of the military general's family died on the battlefield.

Like Grandfather Wei and Grandfather Nie, their grandmothers passed away because both of them were Wenchen.

At the end of the meeting, dinner was served, and everyone went home to eat, while the single dogs went to the big dining room to eat.

The next day, Jiang Xinyan led everyone to tear off peanuts, peanuts are called peanuts in Dongchen Kingdom, and the harvest period of peanuts is from June to November.

Peanuts are sown in spring and autumn, and peanuts should be sandy soil areas with warm climate, long growing season and moderate rainfall.

Therefore, Jiang Xinyan and the muddy town where they are located, sowing flowers is the best, and the yield is abundant, even in modern peanuts, it is a nut that is widely eaten.

Peanuts can be used to extract peanut oil, and the waste from the oil can also be used as a raw material for cosmetics such as soap and hair oil.

These have to wait for Jiang Xinyan and his wife to come back from Yumen Pass, Chu Lixuan has already drawn the picture according to Jiang Xinyan's description and arranged for Luo Yansong to be the press.

Jiang Xinyan and his wife, followed by Wei Dabin, Zhao Yu, Dai Yuntao, Zhou Daniu, these fierce generals, as well as Jiang Zihao, Chu Lixiang, Song Mingjiang, Wei Wenbin, these weak chickens and little children.

"Na! If you take a closer look, the peanut is mainly determined by the appearance of the plant and the appearance of the fruit during the ripening period.

Judging from the appearance of the plant, the upper leaves turn yellow, the middle and lower leaves turn from green to yellow, and gradually fall off, and the stems and branches turn yellow and are ripe to pull.

Pull a bag to show you, the outer skin of the husk is hardened, the texture of the veins is deep and clear, the inner sponge body of the husk is black-brown, the kernel is full and full, and the color of the seed coat is bright. ”

"Madam, is it true that this piece of land is planted at the same time and matures at the same time?" Zhao Yu also easily pulled out a pocket.

"That's right, so you're not sure if it's ripe, so you can pull out a bag and take a look, it's mature like this, and the shell is not hard like a water bubble, so it's not ripe."

Jiang Xinyan peeled a fallen peanut and had three peanut kernels, she stuffed one for Chu Lixiang, and then one for Jiang Zihao.

Then she was thinking about whether to give herself a taste of the one in her hand, or give it to Chu Lixuan!

Before she could think clearly, Chu Lixuan put two peanut kernels into her mouth, she opened her mouth to take it, and without hesitation, she stuffed one in her hand to the man.

Chu Lixuan happily tasted the freshly baked peanuts, and the others followed them in picking a peanut and peeling it to taste.

"It's too sunny outside, so we use a carriage to load the peanuts back into the dining room, pick them out for everyone and then dry them, and the leaves and stems of the peanuts can be chopped and cooked to feed the pigs, or they can be directly given to horses and cows."

"Understood, I'll arrange it." Wei Dabin knew that their father and wife were going to leave for Yumen Pass tomorrow.

"Everyone is too tired to do double robbery, you can rest for two days and then tear off the peanuts, and there are no other crops to harvest for the time being, so let's harvest slowly."

"Madame, don't worry about us, giggle...... We weren't tired at all. "Xu Feng likes to talk.

"Then you should also pay attention to rest, don't suffer from heat stroke, the sun in the north is more intense, you all remember Ha, raw peanuts, just taste it."

Don't eat too much at a time, it's easy to have diarrhea, I'll wait and ask the guy to teach them to boil boiled peanuts for you to eat, it's very delicious. ”

Jiang Xinyan also happened to cook more and take it to eat on the road, and they also planted peanuts in the space, but there was no place to cook them.

"Oh! Brother Xiang, why are you sitting on the ground? After Jiang Xinyan finished speaking, she saw Chu Lixiang sitting on the ground.

"Sister-in-law, I'm fine, it's just careless, hehe, careless." Chu Lixiang said curtly.

"Hahaha......" made the people who saw the process laugh.
