After reconciliation, abandoned wives and cubs farm the fields

Chapter 246 Preparing for the Celebration Banquet

County Magistrate Wei and County Magistrate Hu both came.

Su Nanzhen went to greet them, each had their own responsibilities, she sat back to record the potato production without bothering to catch up with Su Yi.

County Magistrate Wei and County Magistrate Hu also sent people to record the production of potatoes. She was worried that she might not be able to keep up with just a few people, so it would be much easier with their help.

County Magistrate Wei and County Magistrate Hu stared at the fields within their respective jurisdictions, chatted occasionally, and were amazed when they heard the numbers reported by their subordinates at first, but then calmed down, and the reported numbers did not affect them at all. conversation.

Wu Daniu has a large family, and the potatoes have been almost harvested. Su Nanzhen looked at his family's production, and the potatoes per mu of land were close to [-] catties, not including the missed ones.

This data made her secretly relieved, and finally she did not let her down.

The potatoes of Wu Daniu's family are not the most productive. Su Nanzhen looked at the numbers on the paper and beamed with joy.

The common people onlookers even exclaimed enviously, only regretting that such a good thing didn't happen to them.

Everyone worked from day to night, and the potatoes on the tens of acres of land were finally harvested. The county magistrate had already left, leaving only two masters to preside over the overall situation.

Su Nanzhen counted all the data and promised to give them a complete record tomorrow.

After working for so long, Eggy started to doze off, and she just wanted to take a rest early.

At night, there was a quarrel outside. It turned out that there was a dispute between people from other places who wanted to pick up leaks and those who were on patrol at night. Su Nanzhen got up and heard that it was because of this, and then fell back on the bed and continued to sleep.

The next day, all the villagers were still dispatched. Yesterday they harvested most of the potatoes, and today they had to pick up the missing ones. Most of them were rations. This time, the whole family was dispatched together.

And Su Nanzhen and Li are discussing to make a potato feast with the potatoes they picked up. She will teach everyone how to make potatoes and how to make potato flour.

Lizheng agreed to such a good thing without asking the villagers what they meant, but there were endless disputes about where to hold the banquet, and they refused to give in.

"Stop, why don't you just stay here in the field, it's not difficult to build a stove." Su Nanzhen interrupted them, and it was convenient for the villagers of the two villages to come here.

The ugly thing is the first, Su Nanzhen first asked for [-]% of her own potatoes, a total of [-] catties, and she used them as seeds, so she didn't want more of them.

"It should be, it should be." Guan Lizheng and Qu Lizheng were taken aback for a moment, they were so happy that they almost forgot about it.

Su Nanzhen is not a member of the government. Although she has an imperial decree, she has no official position. It was not easy to get some rations from the villagers, but I heard that she also taught how to make potatoes, and how to make potato flour and store potatoes. Most people readily handed over their due share.

Very few people who searched and searched were also muttering.

The two of them collected all the potatoes that were going to be given to Su Nanzhen, and the potatoes that were used to prepare the potato feast were also collected, together with the rice noodles and vegetables handed in by each family.

Qu Lizheng and Guan Lizheng gritted their teeth and decided to produce a big product by themselves, one produced two ducks, and the other produced two big roosters.

Lizheng sent someone to deliver the potatoes to Su Nanzhen.

Su Nanzhen checked and accepted the potatoes on the spot. Most of the potatoes were fine, and only a few had wounds. She picked them out and stored them separately.

"Then let's prepare the stove." Guan Lizheng saw that he had a job to do, so he went to prepare the potato feast.

"Okay, let me know when you're ready, and then pick someone who is good at cooking to be your helper." Su Nanzhen waved her hand, and she had to pack the potatoes first.

The potatoes in the yard have also been harvested, and they are just used to store things. She is no longer going to plant anything, and she is thinking about going home, and she has no other thoughts except going home.

Several women outside were preparing to cook, and a young daughter-in-law came to ask Su Nanzhen what to do with those potatoes.

"You tell them to wait, prepare other dishes first, and I'll go over when I'm done." Su Nanzhen looked at the remaining potatoes and called Ah Wu and the others to work harder.

Eggy wants to go outside to watch the excitement, but Mu Furong has to chase him again.

The [-] catties of potatoes are too busy, and Su Nanzhen works hard again.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Su Yihuan came over to see how busy she was, and asked distressedly, "I think you seem to be thinner again, are you tired?"

"I'm not tired, it's worth seeing the tiredness." Su Nanzhen said with a smile, and then asked, "Don't you need to go back to the Yamen?"

"I have to talk to Li Zheng about something." Su Yihuan smiled slightly. He wanted to represent the county magistrate to buy potatoes from them as seeds, and then sell them.

As for how much to sell and who to sell to, he can have a say.

"That's a good idea." Su Nanzhen nodded, but it is better for them to come forward for the promotion.

"Guan Li and I are talking about our thoughts, but he hasn't made a statement yet." Although Su Yihuan said this, he was still sure of persuading him.

"It's not something he can decide on his own. It just takes time. It's not that I don't want to help, but they have enough potatoes for promotion. I have to use them in the counties south of Yanjing. " Su Nanzhen said apologetically.

The potatoes in the hands of Lindong Village and Xiangxi Village can not only be promoted in Yanzhou, but also other remote states and counties can also obtain potato seeds from them.

Just considering that they still regard potatoes as rations, Su Nanzhen didn't ask for more potatoes.

Su Yihuan naturally understood her thinking, and said with a smile, "You are so small, I can't bear to say this to you, don't worry, your uncle and I know how to pretend to be powerful."

Yanzhou is so big, it's not just the county magistrate's business, the county magistrate will also consider the reasonable distribution of potatoes.

Su Yihuan just said a few simple words, Su Nanzhen understood what he meant in seconds, smiled slyly, said nothing, and asked him to learn how to store potatoes first.

The women outside were urging again, so Su Nanzhen had no choice but to leave the matter to Ah Wu and the others.

Eggy was also tired from playing in the field, so she came back and followed her closely.

Su Nanzhen took the children and taught them how to shred and cut into pieces. As for baked potatoes, it was not difficult.

The people who picked up the leaks in the fields have almost picked up, and only a few households are still rummaging through every inch of land without giving up.

Someone was holding potatoes and hiding them, Su Nanzhen just glanced at them and smiled silently.

She didn't intend to record the potatoes.

"Sister-in-law Osmanthus, we don't have enough potatoes." Someone teased the new daughter-in-law.

"What's not enough, my man said he paid a lot, don't cheat me." The new daughter-in-law was blushing, but she was also protecting food.

Everyone laughed.

The new daughter-in-law hid the basket of potatoes she picked up at home before coming out, blushing amidst the laughter of the crowd.

Originally, she was just making fun of the little daughter-in-law, but the content of the chat gradually exceeded her imagination. Su Nanzhen suddenly felt that the time spent with them was still too little, and she was somewhat uncomfortable.
