Second spring

205 Seedlings

"I am willing."

Princess An Min gently put her head on Song Jie's shoulder, and said softly, "My husband, since you have come to Luzhou, how can I live in Shengjing? Without you, I don't think I can live."

When Song Jie told her that she wanted to be transferred, Princess An Min didn't know how happy she was.

She thought, she could finally stay away from the Lin Fu who was pressing on her head and heart.Going out for three to five years, the distance is far away, isn't the friendship also weakened?In the past, my husband had no relatives, so he valued the people of the Lin family more than anything else.What if he had a child of his own?

Thinking of the child, Princess An Min's heart felt like a needle prick.

She happily traveled long distances to the countryside of Luzhou, facing the old furniture in the mansion that her second-class servants would not bother to use, without any reluctance, she happily directed people to clean up the mansion. dress up.

Then she heard Shushan Academy.

Her husband came to Luzhou to take office. Not to mention the three fires of the new official's appointment, he listed the construction of Shushan Academy first.He doesn't even mind if there is his favorite bamboo in the government office yard!

Princess An Min did not speak rashly, but asked people to inquire slowly.

As a result of inquiring, she felt as if struck by lightning, the world was spinning, and she spurted another mouthful of blood.It turned out that the reason why my husband chose this ghostly place in Luzhou to be the parent officer was because it was the hometown of the Lin family!It's because the Lin family will come to settle here!Her husband is not only busy with his teacher's Shushan Academy.And the Lin house!

He came to Luzhou only because someone surnamed Lin would come to Luzhou!

Princess An Min didn't even know how she woke up.After she wakes up.Then he calmed down and warned everyone to be careful not to tell anyone, including Song Jie, about his vomiting blood.She said that Song Jie was busy with official duties, so he couldn't let him worry about her.

After that, she finally learned the "virtuous" "smile", even if her heart hurts.

Song Jie finally did not push his wife away.in silence.

After a long time, Princess An Min opened her mouth to probe: "My husband said just now that Xiao Bei brought something to Sister Yi? Why did Xiao Bei give her something? The two of them...?"

Princess An Min's words were full of meaning, and a trace of boredom flashed in Song Jie's heart for no reason.But he still replied: "Xiao Bei is already planning to propose marriage next year, when Junior Sister Yi is going to break her filial piety."

"Oh." Princess An Min nodded, as if she sensed that Song Jie was unhappy, so she stopped asking.Between the rolling of the wheels.She couldn't help wondering why Song Jie was unhappy?Could it be because the woman surnamed Lin is finally getting engaged?He no longer has a chance?

The nail tip of Princess An Min's index finger kept scratching back and forth on the belly of her thumb.

The two of them returned to the Luzhou government office silently all the way.As the old parents of a family, many people naturally came to pay New Year's greetings to Song Jie today.Song Jie saw one or two, but nothing else.And Princess An Min excused her poor health, and she didn't see any of the officials' wives.

Her big finger had been scratched so hard that it was almost callused, it was burning hot.

"Aunt Ren, help me find out what is going on with Yang Guangbei and Lin Yijia from the Marquis of Wuxing." Princess An Min finally ordered.Let go of your fingers, took a cup of ginseng tea, and sipped it carefully.

……

Lin Yijia finally got the seed she wanted.

Regarding sweet potatoes, Yang Guangbei was very careful, and he also wrote down the cultivation methods he asked, although there were only a dozen or so sweet potatoes in total.There is another kind that is three points similar to sweet potatoes, Mrs. Lin was very happy to see it.It is said to be "potatoes", which are better and more durable crops than sweet potatoes.Unfortunately, there are fewer, only three.

"It just so happens that there is an open space on the side of the mountain in the backyard. You have someone turn it over. After the spring, you have raised seedlings and planted them!" Mrs. Lin was very happy, and couldn't help clapping her hands: "This year's harvest is done. Seeds, I am afraid that next year we will grow enough seedlings to plant in our family's fields. In the next year, let Nanshan encourage the people of Luzhou Prefecture to plant..."

Soon, sweet potatoes and potatoes will gain a firm foothold in Quandaxian!

Lin Yijia was also very excited and said, "I will definitely work hard!"

With hope, the days pass quickly.

In a blink of an eye, it was the 22nd of the first lunar month, and Shushan College officially opened.Although the Song Dynasty promoted it throughout the Luzhou Prefecture, there were not many people who believed in "food, lodging and tuition free". Except for the dozens of post-disaster orphans entrusted by Qingfengnian, there were only a dozen or so beggars, all of whom were fatherless. No mother, no worries about being alone.It is because I know the reputation of the Lin family in Shilin, and I know that Lin Shiqing's number one scholar was sent by his parents with a lot of money, so I want to ask Lin Shiqing for advice.

Lin Shiqing was a little discouraged. His kindness could only be seen by beggars.

It was Mrs. Lin who persuaded him, "You took the first batch of students seriously and your reputation spread, and more people will naturally come to study later."

"But a semester is wasted like this, I'm not reconciled." Lin Shiqing sighed.

"Why don't you learn it again next month?" Mrs. Lin suggested.

Lin Shiqing shook his head: "It's not my fault that I can't seize the opportunity. I can't change the rules of the academy because of this. If I want to come again, I can only wait for autumn." He is a person with principles.

Lin Yijia can't and won't interfere with Shushan College's affairs.

At this time, she was looking at the healthy one hundred sweet potato seedlings and forty potato seedlings in front of her, full of joy.

This piece of land of about half an acre has been leveled and is just waiting for sowing.

Because she didn't get the seeds Lin Yijia wanted, Anqing's sister-in-law sent two strong and experienced peasant women to Lin Yijia.The two peasant women are poor people. After hearing that these two new seedlings will have an unbelievably high yield, looking at those seedlings is like looking at green gold bumps, and their eyes are shining.

Lin Yijia was about to let the two peasant women start planting seeds, when Lan Si suddenly said, "Miss, Mr. Liu is here."

"Who's here?" Lin Yijia looked in the direction indicated by Lan Si, and immediately found the blue shirt.

Liu Shenzhi was walking towards them in the sunshine of early spring, with an ethereal demeanor, like a fairy.However, he has such a warm and friendly smile... Lin Yijia seemed to feel that for a moment, her heart skipped a beat.

This feeling surprised Lin Yijia.

She quickly regained her senses, waiting for Liu Shenzhi to come over.Obviously, his purpose was her here.

"Miss Lin." Liu Shenzhi glanced at the clusters of yellow and green leaves protruding from the clay pot, a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.Those leaves were covered with a layer of thin linen to protect them, obviously the owner regarded them as very precious. "What kind of plant is this? Liu has never seen it before."

He is a medical student, and he is not familiar with all kinds of plants, and he will be familiar with them when he encounters them.

"Mr. Huiliu, this is a sweet potato seedling, and the potato seedling over there is a species found from Westerners. We obviously don't have it. We are going to try planting it." Lin Yijia did not hide anything, and introduced two Terracotta basin.

"A new crop? It's rather strange." Liu Shenzhi smiled and said, "May I let Liu have the honor to watch the planting ceremony?"

"Sir, whatever you want." Lin Yijia smiled slightly and waved to the two peasant women.It's just planting some seedlings, and it's actually called "watching the ceremony"... Lin Yijia shook her head heartily, and focused all her attention on the movements of the two peasant women.

The peasant woman was careful, pinching Xin Miao's hand as if pinching her own child's neck.One person used his hands to open a half-finger-deep shallow pit on the field ridge, and the other put the new seedlings into the pit and still held it carefully. After the first person gently cultivated the soil, the two were considered complete. Planting work, let out a sigh of relief.

Next, he was still cautious and did not dare to be lighthearted.

"Miss Lin likes farming?" Liu Shenzhi asked softly.

Lin Yijia nodded, then shook her head again, and said, "I can't say how much I like it. However, after I managed Qingfeng, I found that our Daxian's food is really not enough. Whenever there is a disaster, and some unscrupulous businessmen, The lives of the common people are too miserable, so I thought I could do something to help them, no matter what, it would be good."

Liu Shenzhi was really surprised when he heard this.It turned out that Qingfengnian, which was praised by the court as a "good businessman" and expanded rapidly, was actually made by this gentle and quiet girl in front of me.

Don't say anything about running a shopkeeper.Don't say anything else, just say that if there is no boss to speak, see if the shopkeeper dares to give the porridge!

"The girl is kind." Lin Shenzhi praised her sincerely.

In autumn, due to civil unrest in Lingnan, the local harvest was poor and grain prices remained high.It was Qingfengnian's intervention that brought the local grain price back down to a level that both the imperial court and the grain merchants could barely accept--I don't know how many people died.

Lin Yijia pursed her lips, and said with a faint smile, "I just think that after decades of life, I can't just waste all my time in the inner house just because I am a daughter."

Liu Shenzhi was so shocked that he forgot to laugh.He looked Lin Yijia up and down a few times, calmed down the astonishment on his face, and said with some hesitation: "Why would a girl think like this? How can it be a waste of time to care for a husband and raise a child? Liu really doesn't understand."

Lin Yijia smiled lightly and did not explain to her.

Liu Shenzhi didn't hesitate to press the question.He was silent for a while, wondering if he had figured something out, that kind of smile like a warm sun filled his face again, and he casually talked about interesting stories about his practice of medicine.

Between joking and joking, time passed quickly.

Soon, a total of 140 new seedlings and some other seeds had been sown. Lin Yijia thanked the two peasant women and asked them to take good care of the half-acre field before going back to report to her mother.Lin Yijia knew that her mother seemed to be more concerned about these young seedlings than herself, but for some reason, she didn't want to show too much concern.

Is it because of perfecting oneself?Lin Yijia thought.

"Just right, Mr. Liu is asking Mr. Li about something, and he also wants to pay a visit to Uncle Lin." Liu Shenzhi said with a smile, "Please trouble Miss Lin to show me the way."

It was only then that Lin Yijia remembered that this person seemed to have come down directly from the mountain, so please enter the back house of the Lin Mansion... (To be continued.
