The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 549 Small Banquet

What the second grandma was thinking at the moment, the eldest granddaughter was engaged, the second granddaughter was old enough to be engaged and married, and the third granddaughter was also old enough to be engaged!

As for the fourth and fifth granddaughters, you are still young, stay for a few more years!

Ever since the second grandma found out that she had a son, she wanted to know what her son looked like. She heard from her granddaughter that her son was a bit like an old general, but a bit like her cousin. This is why no one suspected that the cousin was not the father of the son!

There is such a little resemblance between cousins ​​that no one would imagine!
"Grandma, let your granddaughter help you!" Ye Shiqi looked at the account book in grandma's hand, and said caringly!

"Oh, my little granddaughter can read account books?" The second grandmother smiled, just joking, and didn't think this little granddaughter had this ability!
"The account book is such a simple matter, the young lady can do it at a very young age, and the maids around me can do it too. Let the maids around me help grandma!"

Ye Shiqi is not humble at all, what she said seems to be showing off, but she is telling the truth!
"Second old lady, what my cousin said is true. Miss knows a new method of accounting, a clear accounting method, and taught us. We can help Second Mistress!"

Bai Xue nodded along with the other maids, and he answered Second Grandma's words on behalf of the young lady!

"Oh, let's see. If there is a new bookkeeping method and someone can help, that's good. I, an old man, can also relax. If I can, teach these methods to the people around me!"

Second Mistress thinks that these maids are young, they are very honest and loyal, teacher, they are trained by their army family members, the little maids are also family members of the army!
Ye Shiqi checked the account book and handed it to the maid beside her!

"Grandma, what food do you eat in winter? Vegetables!"

The second grandmother heard this and sighed: "In winter, you can't win anything, you can only fatten up those fields, and plant corn, rice, and wheat in spring!"

Ye Shiqi continued to ask: "Can't we grow potatoes in winter?"

The second grandma shook her head and said, "The wind and sand here are relatively strong. Although it is an oasis, it will be covered with ice and snow in winter, and everything you plant will be killed by the snow!"

"Second Grandma, this time I brought good potato seeds and sweet potato seeds from the south, which can be planted in winter, and next spring, there will be a wave of grain harvest!"

The second grandma heard the news because of a suggestion from a little girl. She was a little disbelieving: "Granddaughter, the situation you said is fine in the south of our hometown, but not here. It's going to snow soon. Now that the potatoes are planted, they will be covered with ice and snow, and the potatoes will rot if they are frozen for a long time, let alone germinate!"

Ye Shiqi thought about it, planting here, how is the planting in the manor done!

This is ancient times, not the age of science and technology. The most common way is to soak the seeds in warm water to germinate, such as potatoes, or some vegetable seedlings buried in the soil, also need to germinate!

"Grandma, in the manor of our hometown, in cold weather, if we grow vegetable seedlings, we will build thatched huts, like this kind of potatoes, or the seeds of vegetables that need to be germinated, such as rice, are all soaked and germinated, and the yield will be much higher when we leave! "

The second grandmother used to be a peasant girl, and sometimes she saw her parents germinate and plant the land. She also used this method to arrange the manor to plant in this oasis!

In a year, only a few months can be used for planting, and the other months can only be used for fertilization. The next year's planting will have a much higher yield!

"Oh, the thatched house you mentioned is not good, the weather is too cold, and nothing can be grown in the snow and ice!" The second grandma still didn't believe it!

"Grandma, in fact, we build thatched houses here in the field. In winter, if we can have firewood, we can keep warm in the thatched houses. The smaller denominations inside are heavier, which is actually fine!"

The second grandma shook her head: "Planting plants in the thatched house and then lighting the fire, wouldn't it make the thatched house burn?"

Ye Shiqi thought for a while and said: "Do people here make a pit? Cooking fires during the day will warm up the pit. We can also use this method to make passages to keep the thatched house warm, so that Can grow plants!"

The second grandma heard what her granddaughter said: "The manor has hundreds of acres of land, some of which are not in the same place. How can we build so many thatched houses here?"

"For example, if we grow sweet potatoes, we can make some haystacks for these. As long as the wind and snow are blocked, sweet potatoes can grow. The same is true for potatoes. Plant other food or grass. Just now, granddaughter said, grandma can let people try it!"

The second mistress agreed with Ye Shiqi, and sent someone to call the old housekeeper, and the steward who just left, to arrange this matter!

Ye Shiqi watched the second grandma talk to the old housekeeper and the steward, and what she arranged was exactly what she had discussed with grandma just now!

The steward looked surprised. They had been growing food here for many years, and they had never thought of these methods!
I only know that there is not enough food to eat, so I bought it outside and shipped it over!
The words Second Mistress said, she glanced at Ye Shiqi without any trace, admiring this five little five, too many ideas!

Then sighed, when the Ye family picked up the baby, one son would get so many baby grandchildren!
The old housekeeper was very proud, he had a part to contribute to this, and the old general even praised him.

The lonely old housekeeper, the sons and grandchildren brought back by the old general are all good, and I respect him very much!

His body was strong before, but in the past month or so, he has gotten better and stronger for some reason!

Feeling that his old bones can still be used, the young lady wants to return to the capital after the Spring Festival, so that he can reunite with the old general's family here for a longer time!
The old housekeeper and the steward hurried out. This time, they built the thatched house before it snowed, so that the seeds would germinate first!
Ye Shiqi decided to go to the manor tomorrow!
"Grandma, let's go to the manor tomorrow too!"

The second grandma nodded: "Hey, learn how to be a female celebrity at home. Don't run around with your children. There will be danger outside. After all, this place is too close to neighboring countries."

"Grandma is fine! I have a secret weapon for your granddaughter!" Ye Shiqi said triumphantly, and took out a silver needle to show grandma. In fact, she wanted to say that if anyone dared to mess with her, the bomb would explode, and the medicine would kill them all!

The second grandma saw the silver needle, and suddenly felt pain in the old lady and the people around her!
"Granddaughter, do you know how to conceal weapons?"

"That's a little bit, we know a little bit of a degree, and a little bit of medical skills." Ye Shiqi proudly showed off to grandma!

"Really, is my granddaughter good at medicine?" The second grandma didn't think that it would be bad for women to study medicine like other noble wives did. If they can be cured, then she will not be afraid of the old lady and the people behind her!
