Reborn farmhouse busy farming

Chapter 61
As soon as Luo Tiandu heard it, she understood that Luo Baisu had responded to the letter she wrote to the county government last time. She reckoned that the rape incident must have had a big impact this time, and even County Magistrate Tang came to Luojia Village in person.

Thinking of this, she was also shocked, and she hurried home with Luo Mingdu.

As soon as I approached Luo's house, I saw four government servants in green clothes with knives standing at the gate of the yard. They pressed their left hands on the handles of the knives, majestic, and there was a carriage parked beside it. If you look carefully, this carriage looks familiar. Last year, when she and Fang's Luo Ming both went to the county government office, they also vaguely took this car.

Fang was waiting anxiously at the gate of the courtyard, and when she saw her coming, she calmed down a little, pulled her and said, "Where have you been, County Magistrate Tang is here."

Luo Tian blinked, a little puzzled: "Magistrate Tang is here, isn't he accompanied by father and second uncle?" Does she still need a child to accompany her?
Fang also frowned: "I asked you about you just now, so I asked your sister to call you back."

Fang Shi didn't seem very happy when her child was deliberately asked by the county magistrate, but her expression was mostly worried.Luo Tian could see it clearly, so he secretly noticed it in his heart, thinking of taking some time to ask Fang shi.

Magistrate Tang and Luo Baisu were looking at the half tank of rapeseed oil left by her house in the east room. When Luo Tiandu entered the door, he happened to hear him asking: "Is this oil made from cloud sprouts really as you said?" , ten seeds and three oils?"

Luo Baisu replied honestly: "Exactly, the people in the oil workshop can also confirm it."

County magistrate Tang was overjoyed: "What we have always eaten is fat from pigs. Pigs are expensive, so poor people can't afford them. A little vegetable oil is also squeezed from beans. How can ordinary people be willing to spend so much on decent food?" Oil extraction, this cloud sprouts solves many problems, and it can be cultivated in winter without taking up farming time, so it is suitable for vigorous promotion."

Only then did Luo Tian feel relieved.

After all, it is related to the "food" of the people, and it is much better than the black tallow oil that can only be used for industry. Luo Baisu also wrote a letter to the county government, but only got a reply from the county magistrate Tang. There was no more to say, and now for the sake of rapeseed oil, Magistrate Tang came to Luojia Village in person.

This made her feel overwhelmed. In this era when food and clothing are unsustainable, there is nothing more important than increasing food species for the common people.

She is not the kind of person who is so selfish that she knows that she can improve the lives of the people if she has the conditions, but hides it and only cares about her family making a fortune. She has also been hungry and eats Fang's boiled vegetables every day. The fashion is good, and there is a lot of work during the busy farming season. It is very hard to squat in the field almost day and night, but there is more oil and water in the stomach, otherwise people will not be able to hold on.Families with a lot of fields in the village, every time they planted and harvested crops, they would always fall ill due to exhaustion, and their diet could not keep up, which may not have no impact.

This is not the era when everyone was tired of eating food with excess nutrition, clamoring for a light and healthy regimen every day, and trying to control fat intake to maintain health. People here have exhausted all their energy just to earn a bite. Since she knows how much rapeseed oil can improve people's lives, she will naturally want to promote it.

To promote the cultivation of rapeseed, the efforts of their family alone have limited effect. If they have the support of the government, they will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

"I have already reported the matter of cloud sprouts seed oil to the imperial court, and I believe that there should be a document in a short time. In this way, your Luo family has done a good deed for the people of the world." County magistrate Tang said here, Thinking of this incident, I couldn't help being very curious, "Every family in Yuntai has human seeds, why is it that only your family discovered that the seeds can be squeezed for oil?"

This question really hits the point.

Luo Tian also pricked up his ears to see how Luo Baisu would answer.At this time, she was a little afraid. After all, she was wearing the skin of a five-year-old child. If the things she caused were spread, no matter how kind and honest people are, they would not only think that she was smart. , maybe a "monster" hat was pressed down, and she was tied to a stone and sunk at the bottom of the Yongshui River, that would still be a kind way.

Luo Baisu frowned, apparently also felt that this question was a bit tricky, and finally said slowly: "The late student also saw it in a broken book by chance."

He was the same as Luo Tiandu, he attributed all these to the fragmented book that Luo Tiandu said, but he had never seen before.

County magistrate Tang was very curious: "Remnant books? Who wrote them? There are no records in "Nongshu Shuo", "Nongshu Jiyao", and "Nongshi Quanshu". Is there any more complete agricultural books handed down? But no one knows about it?"

Luo Baisu shook his head, and said, "It's just a fragment of a handwritten copy, but I don't know who wrote it."

"Where is that book now?" Magistrate Tang asked again.

Luo Baisu happened to see Luo Tiandu coming in, frowned, thought for a while, and said resolutely: "It's cold in winter, and the late student was sleepy reading, so he accidentally dropped the book into the brazier, and when he woke up, there were only ashes left."

Magistrate Tang felt very sorry.

Luo Tiandu stood outside the door, and after listening for a long time, his heart was full of mixed emotions, and he couldn't tell what it was like.Although she wanted to make her family's life better, she was too impatient. The most ordinary things she knew and had seen were completely unfamiliar to the people here.Although she had a good heart, she didn't carefully consider the consequences of doing these things. Her actions inevitably brought trouble to her family and herself.

Luo Baisu took everything on himself like this, presumably to protect her.

County magistrate Tang regretted it for a while, but the people under his rule discovered the matter of cloud sprouts seed oil. After all, it was a good thing, and soon became emotional again. : "I haven't seen you for a few months, Miss Luo seems to have grown taller again."

Luo Tian didn't realize that he had grown taller. Hearing what he said, he patted his head reflexively and said, "Really? Why do I feel that I'm still so short."

Magistrate Tang laughed out loud, as if he thought her childish answer was very funny, and said with a smile: "Of course it is true. Ruoning is as old as you, but now she is much shorter than you."

Luo Tiandu also thought of Tang Ruoning Tang Baozi who sat on a chair in the county government office, couldn't even reach the ground with his feet, but could write regular script with a straight hand.

"How is the little boy?" She still likes that white and tender cute little bun very much.

Magistrate Tang also nodded, and replied, "Very good, he still asks about you from time to time."

But Luo Tian knew that this was pure politeness. Children love the new and dislike the old very forgetfully. After so many months, and there is a new year in between, Tang Xiaobaozi might have forgotten her long ago.

County magistrate Tang sat for a while, and went to the field with Luo Baisu again, looked at the ten acres of dry land and the newly opened paddy field where the Luo family planted cloud sprouts, nodded repeatedly, and praised Luo Baisu for his quick mind , is experienced in farming, and has set a good example for the folks by reclaiming wasteland.

Luo Tian laughed when he heard this, thinking that his family's tens of acres of land was only obtained thanks to the blessing of County Magistrate Tang, otherwise the four of them would have to worry about how to make a living.

County magistrate Tang is just entering his official career, and he is worrying about how to find ways to make some political achievements. Fortunately, he can get a good review from Shangfeng during the scientific evaluation.It just so happened that the Luo family reported the matter of cloud sprouts seed oil, but it was enough for him to get a top grade. The Tang family has someone in the court, and when the term of office expires next year, it may be possible to be promoted to a higher level.

Therefore, he also attached great importance to Luo Baisu, and said earnestly: "Now that the autumn is approaching, you have to put your mind away and study hard, so that you can get a good name in the future and stand out, so that your wife, children, and mother will also be honored. "

Luo Baisu cupped his hands and even claimed yes.

County magistrate Tang asked again: "I heard that you were selected as a scholar at the age of 16, but you have not taken the provincial examination since then. Why?"

Luo Baisu was silent, Luo Tian relied on being a child, and quickly said: "My grandma has always asked my father to work at home. At night my father wants to read a book, but my grandma won't let me light the lamp, saying it would be wasteful."

The implication is that he won't even let him light a lamp oil, let alone pay for Luo Baisu's scientific research.

County magistrate Tang also came from a big family. He has experienced all the things in the mansion. Although the life of the poor family is simpler, but there are many brothers, it is also common for adults to prefer a certain one. He thought about it. , then understood, and said with a smile: "You are going to rush for the exam this year. As a parent officer, since I have met it, I have to contribute. From now on, you will write an article every half a month, or you If you come to the county government office, or send someone to send it to the county government office, I will ask you to read your article in advance for the Minister of Rites."

Luo Tian was overjoyed when he heard this.

The selection of officials in the Daqing Dynasty was strict, even if it was only a county magistrate, he had a serious background in scientific examinations. There was Tang County magistrate who had gone through all the thorns and thorns all the way, and someone who had gone through the township examination, general examination, and palace examination gave advice to Luo Baisu, and Bi Luo Baisu was bored in the room by himself. Reading is much stronger.She was worrying about Luo Baisu's unlearned husband's advice, and County Magistrate Tang really delivered a helping hand this time, and it couldn't have been more timely.

After sending off County Magistrate Tang, Fang's face still had a sad expression, Luo Tian felt very strange.

"Mother, what's the matter? Why do you have such an unhappy expression?" She whispered to Luo Mingdu.

It is reasonable that the county magistrate Tang has come to Luo's house in person, and no one has let the county magistrate come here in person. This is a good thing, why is Fang's face full of worry.

Luo Mingdu also shook his head, expressing that he did not know.

Fang walked in front, heard her clearly, turned her head to look at her, sighed, held back what she wanted to say, and exchanged a few glances with Luo Baisu. The look of saying nothing.

Luo Tiandu became more and more strange. Luo Baisu had always been taciturn, and he liked to keep his words in his stomach. It was not unusual for him to put on such an expression, but Fang was not the kind of person who could hide his words with deep thoughts. Today's appearance is very intriguing.

In the end, it was still Luo Baisu who felt that he couldn't procrastinate any longer, so he beckoned to Luo Tiandu, calling her with a serious face: "Xiaodu, come here, daddy has something to say."
