Chapter 303 Another Three Years

Li Shi glanced at Tang Mian angrily, "Just carry it!"

After that, he angrily snatched the bowl from her hand, glared at her and said, "Go and rest in the room. I'll call you when the meal is ready."

After saying that, he turned around and went to the kitchen to cook.

"Hey, Mom, I listen to you." Tang Mian looked at Li's back and replied with a smile, hung his straw hat under the eaves, and went back to his room to rest.

A child with a mother is a treasure.

Thirty-five-year-old Tang Mian, after years of hard work, his face is beginning to look old.

But there is nothing bad at home. His son is filial and loved by his elders. His mentality and spirit are much better than those of his peers.

Autumn goes to winter and spring comes, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The first batch of hybrid rice seeds have been improved many times and can now produce more than 600 kilograms. If grown well in the Jiangnan region, the yield can even reach 700 kilograms.

The second batch of three hybrid rice species also has a yield of 500 to 600 kilograms.

The unprecedented number shocked the government and the public.

No one thought that a country woman could actually succeed and be so successful.

Although Yu Mingzhi and his wife had expectations, they were a little surprised to see this number.

In the past three years, his official position has become larger and larger. He is now the prefect of Daming Prefecture not far from the capital, and is waiting for the opportunity to be transferred to the capital.

Tang Mian's rice planting business has now achieved very good results, and the people above Yu Mingzhi proposed to reward him in the court.

The current emperor also felt that it was enough, and with a wave of his hand, he gave Tang Mian the title of County Lord, and each of the capital city and Taiyuan City, where Tang Mian was located, was rewarded with a two-room house, and naturally there were a lot of silks, gold, silver and jewelry.

In addition, he was rewarded with five thousand taels of silver, and the capital gave him a small village with sixty acres of land.

I also heard that she was Lu Yanxiu, the new top scholar in this year's three-level exam, and the mother of Lu Yanjin, the fifth-rank Dingyuan general who had just been promoted. I was so happy that I was rewarded with a thousand taels of silver.

With this result, Yu Mingzhi and others are quite satisfied, and they are finally not as fussy as they were at the beginning.

Everyone was happy, except Tang Mian who was worried.

Because she discovered that the yield of existing hybrid rice seeds has almost reached its peak again.

If we want to achieve the dream of producing 1,000 kilograms per mu, we must continue to develop new rice varieties. However, developing new grain varieties on the existing basis is much more difficult than before.

However, with the current results, the matter of new grain planting can be put aside for the time being.

"Mian Niang, it's a long way to the capital, so you must be careful!" Ms. Li was both happy and worried in her heart.

She was happy that Mianniang was the head of the county, but she was worried that she would offend some dignitaries after going to the capital. Mianniang was unable to resist.

Tang Mian smiled and said comfortingly: "Father, mother, don't worry. Feixing and second cousin are following us, nothing will happen to us."

"Besides, we are just riding in an ordinary carriage. Who will come to rob two or three ordinary people who seem to have no money or water?"

Li was still very worried, "That's what I said, but it's better to be careful." "Yes, mother, I understand." Tang Mian agreed obediently.

Mrs. Li sighed again: "You came to the capital this time to be summoned by the emperor to thank you. But I heard that people in the court are not easy to get along with, so I am afraid that you will suffer a loss."

Lu Zheng also frowned, with a sad look on his face.

"Mian Niang, you have to pass by Daming Mansion when you go to the capital. Then go to Mingzhi and the others first and ask what aspects need to be paid attention to. It is best to find someone who is familiar with the relationship between the court and the court to go with you."

They have not even been to Fucheng a few times, and now they are not only going to the capital, but also going to meet the emperor.

That was the emperor, an emperor who would chop off people's heads when he was unhappy. Lu Zheng was very worried.

Tang Mian nodded, "I understand, Dad. That's what I originally planned."

She didn't understand anything, she came to Beijing with a blind eye, and she didn't know how she could offend anyone.
However, her sister and brother-in-law will definitely think of these issues, and they have probably already prepared someone for her.

"Eat well, dress well, take care of yourself, and put your safety first in everything." Mrs. Li held Tang Mian's hand and gave many instructions.

Tang Mian nodded in agreement.

"Also." Mrs. Li paused for a moment, then spoke with a sorrowful expression, "When I go to the capital, I must persuade the two children more. Yan Jin is twenty-six, and Yan Xiu is twenty-four. The young man in the village is twenty-four. Man, the oldest child is seven years old. They don’t even have a wife!”

"How many more years can your father and I live?"

"Don't let us die without seeing our granddaughter-in-law."

Li's heart is sad and bitter!

"Mom, don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Tang Mian hurriedly comforted her, "This time when I go to the capital, I will urge them hard and show them how to look at you."

This is also one of the purposes of Tang Mian's trip to the capital.

Li felt a little better after hearing this.

"Don't just talk but don't do anything, let alone just follow their whims like before."

"Yes, yes, yes." Tang Mian nodded repeatedly.

Mrs. Li then waved her hand, "Go ahead, Feixing and Zhiqiang are waiting for you outside, don't wait too long."

"Okay." Tang Mian breathed a sigh of relief and warned: "Father, mother, I'm afraid it will take several months before I can come back from the capital. You must take good care of yourselves. Just hire workers to do the work in the fields. Don't do it yourself." Do it.”

"Don't worry, your mother and I know what's going on." Lu Zheng nodded.

There is no shortage of money at home now, so there is no need to tire yourself.

It would be more cost-effective to take good care of your health and wait for your great-grandson.

Under the reluctant and worried eyes of the two old men, Tang Mian left, and the three of them went straight to Daming Mansion.
