"What about cooking for Mama Yuan?"

The tone of this statement is not so kind.

Although the speaker had tried his best to suppress the ridicule in his heart, the meaning of ridicule still came out between the lines. Wang Shu frowned, but she didn't conflict with her. He nodded indifferently and admitted, "Yes." ”

Liu choked for a moment, paused, and then curled the corners of his mouth and sneered: "You are quite cheeky." ”

Dropping this sentence, she didn't wait for Wang Shu to fight back, twisted her thin waist and left.

Wang Shu watched her back disappear into the path and rolled her eyes silently. Hurried to the back kitchen.

Because of the explanation from above, the chicken feet have been prepared for a long time. I took off my skin and cut my nails. But I don't know whose bad taste it is, the bones of each claw are quite hard, and they are all unbroken. Thinking about what Mama Yuan meant, the bone joints of this chicken claw had to be broken.

Wang Shu is a regular customer of the big kitchen, and now she doesn't have to open her mouth if she needs someone to help with her work.

The girl who burned the fire was idle, holding a pair of scissors to help Wang Shu knock on the bones. It is done very carefully, and it is bound to ensure that the jointless bones of each chicken claw are constantly broken, and a little skin and flesh are connected.

"That's it, Xiaojun?" The little girl who burned the fire was only twelve years old, with a round face, and she looked like a ball, which was very pleasing.

Wang Shu glanced at it, checked it, and gave it an affirmation.

After finishing a pot of chicken feet, Wang Shu first boiled the pot under cold water and blanched the water to remove the fish. After scooping it up, adjust the marinade. Speaking of which, it is still bitter that there are no chili peppers. If there were chili peppers, how many delicious flavors could she make!

There is absolutely no shortage of spices in the Xiao family. Not only is there no shortage, but because he knows that Wang Shu likes to put all kinds of strange spices when cooking, the people who purchased them even collected some spices from the Western Regions. Whether he recognized it or not, he didn't use it without permission, so he put it in the cupboard. When Wang Shu came to cook, she asked her to take a look, and if she could use it, she would use it.

Wang Shu also found out this time that there was a big news. You must know that fennel and other big ingredients were not introduced until the Ming Dynasty in the history of the Chinese people. The Xiao family is really amazing, and they actually found fennel.

…… This master of the Xiao family, could it really be the waste prince?

If it is really a waste prince, then the Wang family is afraid that it is not so good to be alone. Although Wang Shu doesn't know what the scale of the Wang family's industry is now, she knows that everything needs money. If this master takes a fancy to the property of the Wang family, it is impossible to let her go. In ancient times, scholars and doctors married wives and concubines, and the forces were united, and the Wang family was too rich.

In any case, this master has no worldly desires at present. At least not for her.

Wang Shu pondered that if it wasn't the best, if it was, the weight in her hand should be able to change to a free body. Again, maybe it's not what she thinks. She is so sloppy and sloppy, presumably someone who looks like a fairy can't speak.

With a rotten heart, Wang Shu's hands did prepare the marinade in an orderly manner.

Although Mama Yuan wants to braised it, it tastes better after it has been marinated, and she likes it.

Braise for a quarter of an hour, then blanch.

Add a little shredded leeks to enhance the flavor, and the juice is just right on high heat. The braised chicken feet were made quickly, and they were ready in half an hour. As soon as the lid is lifted, the braised chicken feet with marinade taste strange and attractive. It's a drooling mouthful.

Wang Shu first got a small bowl out and divided a piece for everyone in the back kitchen.

The little girl who burned the fire was hungry for this, and she was so hot that she couldn't let go of her mouth.

A piece of chicken feet doesn't have much meat, just some skin. Eating is a taste. The little girl was gone. Baba pouted his bones and looked into the pot.

These in the pot are for the upper person, Wang Shu is not clear, but the master of the big kitchen is clear. Seeing that the little girl was still looking at it, she slapped her on the back of the head: "Go, go!" Don't get in the way, go burn the fire! ”

Wang Shu boiled a large pot and divided it into two portions as usual. One was sent to Mama Yuan, and the other was made by herself.

Since Wang Shu got acquainted with Mama Yuan, Mama Yuan specially arranged a little girl to run errands. Whatever fresh food Wang Shu made here, it was all taken away by a little girl.

Wang Shu filled the food box and handed it to the little maid. Carrying his own share, he swayed back to Qinghui Garden.

Liu didn't know if he was competing with her or how to drop, and he ran into it when he came back. She glanced at the food box that Wang Shu was carrying, smelled the wisps of strange fragrance, and snorted lightly meaninglessly.

Wang Shu was too lazy to take care of her, but she didn't want to offend her, so she didn't want to get out of the way and let her go first.

vestibule, and Hui Yuan.

Xiao Yanxing looked at the stack of oily and fragrant chicken feet in front of him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but float up.

The sharp-toothed girl was quite obedient, and said that if she broke the chicken feet, she really broke every joint of every claw of each chicken claw. And it accurately maintains the degree that the skin is not completely broken.

Mo Sui, who was waiting for the master's meal, also saw it, twitched the corners of his mouth, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

"That's what a good guy." It's very rigorous and reliable.

Xiao Yanxing raised his eyes and glanced at him.

Mo Sui sneered for a moment, and boasted humbly: "Obedience is also a good character." ”

Xiao Yanxing: "......"

Although there is no chili, Wang Shu, who loves spicy food, will never admit defeat. She insisted on stir-frying the dogwood to bring out enough spicy flavor to bring out the spicy taste of the braised chicken feet.

Xiao Yanxing originally ordered this dish because he meant something, but when he really tasted it, he felt amazing.

The chicken feet melt in your mouth, with a little bit of bone flavor, but they are particularly delicious. Originally, it was just to taste a fresh meal, and before I knew it, I would finish a plate.

Mama Yuan has long been accustomed to this, Xu is Wang Xiaojun's craftsmanship is just right for the master's appetite. No matter what Wang Xiaojun cooks, there is nothing that the master does not like to eat.

Today, thanks to Wang Shu, the chicken feet were made salty, and Xiao Yanxing was stunned to stuff two bowls of rice into his stomach. Mama Yuan watched from the sidelines, thankful in her heart. With Wang Xiaojun here, he is no longer afraid that the master will not be able to swallow heavy food, and the number of people will be reduced.

When the weather is hot, people are prone to impetuousness.

The cicadas in the courtyard chirped together, reflecting the scorching sun at the head, which made people feel more and more uneasy.

The boundary of Liangzhou is quite sunburned. Wang Shu spent a lot of effort to artificially create a one-meter-sized movable test field. After the soaked 11th generation of rice was planted, she began to think about nitrogen fertilizer.

Some crops want to grow well and harvest well, and the necessary fertilizers are indispensable. The combination of nitrogen fertilizer and organic fertilizer can effectively improve the yield of crops. Most of the fertilizers used in this day and age are organic fertilizers. Things like nitrogen fertilizer, urea, etc., are not. Wang Shu pondered, otherwise she would try to produce some nitrogen fertilizer again?

Speaking of which, the production of nitrogen fertilizer is not particularly difficult.

Wang Shu was a top student of Agricultural Science University in her last life, and she also understood the production process and ingredients of nitrogen fertilizer. In my last life, I also tried to produce nitrogen fertilizer by myself, and after three attempts, I succeeded.

Generally speaking, nitrogen fertilizer needs to prepare an appropriate amount of vegetable leaves, melon peels, or soft soybeans, put the prepared materials, put them in a sealed container, add an appropriate amount of water, and then put them in a warm environment to ferment, and the fermentation will be successful after two to three months. At that time, it will be diluted and used to water the crop. And there are many crops that need nitrogen fertilizer.

Crops such as rice, sorghum, millet, cotton, corn, wheat, peanuts, soybeans, and tomatoes all require a lot of nitrogen fertilizer. There were no tomatoes in this era, and everything else was there.

She just woke up in too much time, resulting in too many things taking time, and the schedule would become very tight.

The days passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, Wang Shu had been in Xiao's house for almost two months.

Wang Shu was preparing to make nitrogen fertilizer here, and news came from the Liangzhou Prefecture Government. Concubine Liang Shuyi was afraid that the master would have no one to serve, so she packed and sent the four beauties sent from the capital.

People are already on their way, and they will arrive soon.

After the news was delivered to the Xiao Mansion, Siyi Yuan unexpectedly smashed another batch of porcelain. Wang Shu didn't have any feelings, what she was more concerned about was that her cold melon finally began to bear fruit. She went to the field to see it herself, and the largest melon grew as big as her fist.

"Not bad!" Wang Shu was very satisfied, "Wait another month, and my melons will be ready to eat!" ”

CHAPTER XXII

The environment of Qinghui Garden is not suitable for making small experimental fields for raising seedlings.

Wang Shu turned around the entire Xiao Mansion, and finally found a suitable place by the water's edge by the inaccessible pool in the north. The land is flat, the soil is fertile, the cultivated layer is deep, and the water storage and refreshing water are good. This land is near the water, because no one comes on weekdays, the soil is soft and there is no lump.

Pity her eleventh generation of good seeds, without a good seedling field, she can only squeeze into this small corner and grow in embarrassment.

She tried to water the soil, but it dries slowly, and there's a layer of muddy water seeping out of the surface. If nothing else, fertility and pH are enough. And the soil she dug up from the vacant yard, turned it over, and stored water for a while.

The living conditions are really harsh, and Wang Shu has been aggrieved for these rice seeds.

However, fortunately, the conditions for raising rice seedlings are not harsh. After the basic conditions are met, they can grow. The difficulty is that hybridization experiments require space. When the seedlings grow to a height that can be planted, it is necessary to arrange a test field and plant rice seed samples for comparative experiments.

Rice seeds are hermaphroditic, and hybrid experiments need to be manually de-emasculated and pollinated.

There's not enough space, it's all in vain.

While testing the growth of rice seedlings, Wang Shu also spent some effort to find raw materials for making nitrogen fertilizer. Adequate fertilizer is needed for rice tillering, flowering and heading. Without the supply of fertilizer, the growth may not achieve the effect Wang Shu wants. Among the fertilizers used in rice, nitrogen fertilizer is the main component.

When Mama Yuan heard that she wanted those rotten bean skins, waste vegetables, melons and fruits, chickens and fish to go into the water, her expression was a little broken.

"What do you say Wang Xiaojun wants?" Mama Yuan was waiting in the front yard at that time.

The person who told the prayer repeated it again.

“…… Do you know what she's doing? "Why does she think this Wang Xiaojun is weird?

"I heard that it is to raise flowers."

Do you need these things to raise flowers?

Mama Yuan has never tended to flowers and plants, so she doesn't know much about it. The only thing she was worried about was that Wang Shu was getting these things in the yard, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, would it stink? Ye is so clean, can you still set foot in that yard?

Thinking about it like this, for a while, Mama Yuan really couldn't make up her mind, whether to get Wang Shu over or not.

The messenger waited a moment, but did not dare to leave. Mama Yuan's brows were furrowed, and she didn't dare to speak.

After a long time, Mama Yuan finally agreed.

The main thing she thought was that she would just get something to plant flowers and grass, so that the yard would not stink. What she didn't expect at this time was that Wang Shu was not a little, but a big vat.

The little maid ran away, and Mama Yuan muttered a few words back to the ear room.

Mr. Yan, who was standing by the window, stroked his beard and glanced at Xiao Yanxing, who was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the couch and talking with Mr. Ouyang. Fish intestines and poultry can indeed enrich the fields, and those who tend to flowers and plants know it.

It's the master's concubine's room, and I really know a lot. The temperament is also really idle.

In June, the sky is like a big stove, and the heads and eyes of the roasting people are dizzy.

The further you go in July, the sunier it gets. The bright light shone on the blue bricks and tiles, stirring up a burst of broken gold light.

The clothes are thinner, and they are slowly worn from three to two, and they are still sweating at every turn. Wang Shu looked at the sky with this shading, and at the same time regretted in her heart that she did not contract a large area of land to plant cotton or melons and fruits.

The ripeness and sweetness of melons and fruits require adequate light. With the intensity of sunshine in Liangzhou, the quality of cotton and melons and fruits must be far beyond the ordinary. But fortunately, her watermelons were planted.

Nitrogen fertilizer needs one to two months of fermentation, and after several days of debugging, Wang Shu finally made the nitrogen fertilizer he wanted. She tried diluting the nitrogen fertilizer to water the flowers, and the results were very good.

After making sure that the nitrogen fertilizer was okay, she could try to put it to use.

Perhaps because of the sufficient temperature, the rise of seedlings is gratifying, and it is much more than the plants of ordinary rice seedlings nowadays.

Generally speaking, rice varieties will be divided into early, middle and late rice according to the growth period, sowing period, growth period and maturity stage. In general, early rice grows for three to four months, and is planted in late March or early April. Medium rice is planted in four to five months, in mid-April or early May. Late rice which is five to six months old is planted in July.

Normally, early rice is generally whiter, less hard plasmids, loose rice, and poor quality, while late rice, on the contrary, is of better quality. Wang Shu's rice varieties are medium rice according to the growth cycle. According to the growth environment, it is also considered a late rice variety.

To sum it up simply, middle and late rice.

This rice seed has not yet been perfected to the end, but it is a super three-line hybrid after considering all factors as much as possible.

The yield is high, the rice quality is excellent, and the plant type is compact.

The group grows neatly and delicately, the leaf color is dark green, the sword leaves are short and straight, the tillering power is medium, the grain is many, the seed setting rate is high, the 1000 grains are heavy, the fertilizer is resistant, the color is good in the later stage, the stress resistance is strong, and it is suitable for both plain and hilly areas and lake planting. If you don't consider continuing to improve, only take these seeds to ensure that the cultivation is reapplied with basal fertilizer to promote early tillering; If the problem of disease resistance is properly handled, this rice seed can even reach a yield of 600 catties per mu.

It's just that in today's era, base fertilizer and tillering power are two major problems. Nowadays, the fertilization of agricultural planting is still at a very basic stage. Regardless of other considerations, just planting like this, in fact, can barely reach a yield of 400 catties per mu.

Wang Shu thought that he had to find a test field as soon as possible, and the fertilizer had to keep up. We have been trying our best to produce nitrogen fertilizer.
