Lady Caisang: My husband is a little sweet

Chapter 88 Cotton and Cotton

Gu Qingya stepped forward and read the titles from right to left on the upper shelf. Apart from the enlightenment of rhythm, there were many other enlightenment books, including elementary calligraphy.As for the middle level, in addition to the diaries she had read, she also added a lot of travel diaries and the like.

And the bottom layer is what surprised Gu Qingya the most. The gardening notes and gardening appreciation she has read are here. Other books are similar, such as the introduction of mulberry trees, the overview of silkworms, and the southern plant encyclopedia. , Northern Plant Encyclopedia and so on.

Her breathing tightened, and her eyes were glued tightly to these books. They were all things she would come into contact with in life, and her current living class and state did not have time to pay attention to those elegant things.

Resisting the excitement in her heart, Gu Qingya looked back and forth several times at the bottom of the book, and then thought of what happened today, so she chose the Encyclopedia of Southern Plants, a thick book with colorful illustrations inside. The words are rather strange. They have the same meaning as what I learned, but they are distorted.

The Southern Plant Encyclopedia describes only a general idea, and the species are also common, from woody to herbaceous to aquatic.

From the gardening books I read before, Gu Qingya already knew the concept of words such as woody herbs, perennials and annuals, so she quickly searched for those annual herbs, and focused on selecting drought-tolerant types, but there were She had never heard of many plants, let alone seen them, and the more she turned to the back, the more anxious she became.

Flipping through, Gu Qingya saw an introduction about mung beans, which can be bought in Sanhua County, but the price is not cheap, and she has not heard of anyone who grows mung beans.

The book says that mung beans are afraid of waterlogging and flooding, but in Xiangyang Prefecture, where Sanhua County is located, the weather is humid and rainy, so there are so many rivers and lakes, no wonder no one grows them.

Gu Qingya was overjoyed, she turned back and introduced peanuts, red beans, black beans, and soybeans one by one. Although they are not as afraid of waterlogging as mung beans, they don't need water like rice, so they are suitable for planting.

However, corn and potatoes were also mentioned later, which are also said to be drought-resistant and high-yielding crops. Gu Qingya had never heard of them, but she secretly wrote down their patterns and aliases, in case she encountered them one day but missed them. .

After finishing reading the southern ones, Gu Qingya stopped by and finished the northern ones. At this time, she hadn't fallen asleep yet, which meant that she could continue to read one or two more books. There was no accident. She took the not-so-good book. Outline of a thick silkworm.

Waking up the next day, Gu Qingya was lying on the bed looking at the dark top of the bed. It was not yet dawn, and she didn't know when she went to bed last night, but after sorting out her memory, she was sure of the outline of the silkworm. Didn't finish reading.

I feel a little regretful in my heart, and want to continue to look down, but unfortunately I can't get in during the day, so I can only wait at night.At this time, Yan Qingcha next to him turned over, muttering candied haws in his mouth, and fell into a deep sleep.

Gu Qingya stretched out her hand and pinched Yan Qingcha's little face, knowing that she couldn't follow her yesterday, she was torturing her for a long time just for a candied haws, what a greedy little cat.

After lying in the warm blanket for a while, Gu Qingya got up and put on her clothes, neatly tied up her hair, and went to the kitchen. Gu Shi was boiling water in the pot, she was not surprised to see Gu Qingya, her daughter was It has been a long time since I woke up.

"Mother, do you need me to help you buy something?" Gu Qingya asked in a low voice, sometimes the Gu family needs something, and there is no time to buy it, so as a daughter, she naturally needs to help consider it.

Gu Shi thought for a while, "When my mother will give you some banknotes, you can buy some pieces of cotton cloth." The straps for the special period had to be remade, and they were all broken.

"Mother, don't we have any homemade cocoons?" In the past, the Gu family would buy some poor-quality cocoons and spin them by themselves, but the quality was relatively average.

"It's gone." Gu Shi shook his head, paused, and seemed to think of something, "Don't mess with kapok."

Gu Qingya was stunned for a moment, and then realized that there is also a kind of kapok, which is light and soft, and not expensive, but there are places where silkworms are raised everywhere, and there is no It's not that popular, and some rigid people don't accept it very well, but Gu Qingya thinks that compared with hemp, kapok cloth is better.

"Understood, mother, I will distinguish carefully, and I won't mix it up." Gu Qingya nodded, and her thoughts flew to the books in the space, there must be a detailed introduction about kapok in it.

She has discovered that the books in the space are different in dynasties, ages and even spaces. They come from the future. From the books on gardening, she has discovered that the future should be rich in order to buy those who cannot eat and wear. s things.

After breakfast, Yan's father took Gu Qingya to Liu's house, took Liu's mother and daughter with him, and did not leave the village immediately, but went to find Yan Yisheng and planned to take his ride. Condition.

After Yan's father made his decision yesterday, he went to say hello to Yan Yisheng. When he passed by, Yan Yisheng was still setting up his car, and told Yan's father that he happened to be going to Tianxiang County temporarily today, so he could show him the way.

Knowing this, Father Yan and Father Liu were very happy. When they go to a more prosperous city, even adults will feel nervous. After all, it is not the area where they are, and they are most afraid of encountering some hooligans.

Gu Qingya has been there before, but it is not suitable to talk about it, anyway, it is also an experience, at least she has a bottom line in her heart.

The boat he was on was still the same boatman as before, and he also received a thank you gift, but he was still doing this job, and he was very familiar with Yan Yisheng, he was a little surprised when he saw Gu Qingya, and didn't say much.

Still taking the shortcut, in Tianxiang County, Yan Yisheng told his father a few precautions, and then led them to the main street before doing his own thing.In Tianxiang County, I can’t do other things, but I have to be able to negotiate the price according to the situation, or I will be cheated.

Compared with Sanhua County, Tianxiang County is very lively on weekdays, with people coming and going, and hawking constantly, Liu Bingbing held Gu Qingya's hand tightly, looked around, feeling that his eyesight was not enough.

Father Yan and Father Liu are adults after all. They have passed the age of curiosity and have good self-control. They just watch the two children one after the other to prevent them from getting lost. At the same time, they pay attention to the shops and stalls on both sides, looking for what they want thing.

Gu Qingya had thoughts in her heart long ago, but she couldn't say them at this time, she wanted to find a good time, holding something in her heart, and sometimes it was quite uncomfortable.But she quickly diverted her attention, planning to buy something for her family.

Although some private money should be saved, but Gu Qingya feels that it is worthwhile to take out a little to buy small things for the family, not to mention the value, but to make the adults happy to show their filial piety.

In comparison, Liu Bingbing seemed much poorer. The money in her purse was still the ten cents that Liu's mother temporarily gave her last night, but she was already very satisfied. After all, the family used too much money, and she also followed Gu Qingya thought the same, to buy things for her family, but they could only be cheap ones, which were hard to find.
