Chapter 643

The officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Rituals did not leave after reading the decree, because they still had something to tell Feng Yichen and the Bai family, so they entered the Bai family's gate.

County magistrate Yang carefully accompanied him, and asked Li Zheng to tell the people to leave and not to join the Bai family's house.

It turns out that the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs are not just here to issue an order, but to transport the seeds to the capital after the corn is harvested, so that they can be distributed to the people in various states for planting next year.

There are only [-] acres of corn in the Bai family, and it will definitely not be able to be planted anywhere in the coming year. The Ministry of Households will have to weigh it before redistribution.

Feng Yichen was present but he didn't know much about farming. Although Bai Shixiao wasn't as nervous as he was when he saw Lord Zhou last time, his teeth would chatter when he spoke.

After understanding what the adults meant, he didn't dare to tell others that he wanted to leave some seeds for the villagers to sow, so he tried to calm himself down and said: "The little girl got the corn seeds from other places, why don't you let her come and tell everyone?" Adults explain, it is really a stupid little mouth."

The household official is a stubborn little old man, and he was a little unhappy when he heard the words. Although Bai Xi has a marriage contract with General Feng, how can a little girl intervene in such matters?

In most people's eyes, women should be active in the back room, and it is illegal to participate in outside affairs.

Mr. Zhou hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Uncle Chang Geng is polite." Then he said to the officials of the household department: "Since the seeds brought back by Miss Bai, I will wait for her to explain more clearly, so I can report back to the Holy Majesty when I go back to Beijing. If something goes wrong, We can't afford it."

What are these old stubborn people doing when they know Bai Xi's details?

Bai Xi was helping in the kitchen, and County Magistrate Yang acted like a servant on the run, "Miss Bai, Lord Jingli, please go to the main room to talk."

Su Shi worried: "Is there anything wrong?"

"Madam Bai, don't worry, it's Chang Geng Bo's intention." County Magistrate Yang said.

Bai Xi learned the outline of the matter from County Magistrate Yang, and sat down next to Bai Shixiao after entering the door.

Master Zhou took the initiative to speak up, and said: "I heard from Uncle Changgeng and General Feng that the corn seeds were obtained by Miss Bai from other places. I will return to Beijing with the corn seeds according to the emperor's order. May I ask when the corn in the field will be available?" Harvest? How to plant in the coming year?"

"If you keep the seeds, you must wait until the corn is fully mature, and most of them can be recovered in the field as long as they are dried in the sun.

If you want to save the seeds, it is best to choose the corn cobs with large and full grains..."

Before Bai Xi finished speaking, the official from the household department said, "There are only [-] mu of ready-made corn, which must be used for seeding. Can you start harvesting it into the warehouse tomorrow?"

Bai Xi paused, "Yes, yes, you can see that there are only a few people in my family, I'm afraid you will have to wait a long time before returning to Beijing."

Anyway, they were in a hurry to return to the emperor, and she saw so many soldiers coming, so it was useless.

As soon as Feng Yichen heard what she said, he understood what she was planning, but he would not take the initiative to send people from the military camp to help.

Several officials from the household department looked down on her at first, and then saw that she had been talking neither humble nor overbearing since she came in, and when she came in, she asked them to help them harvest the corn.

If the little girl was really simple, she wouldn't win General Feng's favor, and she wouldn't just get things like corn from other places casually, and she even persuaded the Bai family to plant as much as [-] acres.

It seems that they can no longer despise her. They thought the same as the emperor before, thinking that as long as they spoke, the Bai family would rush to flatter them. How could they think of her words with words to raise conditions.
