After Crossing, and Husband Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies To Farm

"I came here this time mainly for the sweet potatoes on the Zhuangzi, so this time I have to wait until the sweet potatoes are ripe before leaving." After Zhou Huaiming finished speaking, he was not polite, picked up a black-faced steamed bun, and picked up a piece of bacon to eat up.

Zhou Ying didn't say any more after hearing this, and picked up chopsticks and started eating.

After the meal, Zhou Ying brewed a pot of Longjing for them.

After two cups of tea, Zhou Huaiming asked, "I heard that nearly a hundred acres of sweet potatoes are planted in the village, right?"

"Yes, everyone planted some more later, it should be about 150 mu." Zhou Ying replied.

"That's good, more is better, otherwise Daming is going to blow up." Zhou Huaiming said with a heavy face.

"Why, what happened?"

"Several prefectures in the south are flooded, and the grain harvest for the second season is also without grains. Therefore, whether Daming can stabilize or not, this sweet potato is very important."

"When did this happen?"

"Just two days ago, do you still remember the passing rain a few days ago? You also ran over there to join in the fun."

"So that's it." Zhou Ying felt a little heavy after hearing this. If it was just the disaster in the north, there was still some room for it. After all, most people had already moved to the south.

Everyone has been through a bit of hardship and tiredness, but we can still get through it.

But there was another flood in the south, and people were afraid that they were really going to despair.

Seeing this, Zhou Huaiming said, "Don't talk about this, so as not to cause panic."

"clear."

"Then you rest, Uncle Liu and I, go find Tian Jingzhong." Zhou Huaiming nodded.

As soon as Zhou Ying heard that they had business to do, she got up and sent them out.

Then I closed the door, went back to the space, took out a lot of pumpkins and taro, began to slice them mentally, and dried them in the drying area.

If the situation continues to be severe, they will not dare to eat steamed buns or rice anymore.

Then red beans, soybeans, mung beans, lentils, and black beans were baked at low temperature and ground into ready-to-eat brewed drinks.

Then I made some black sesame paste.

In the evening, after Gu Chengrui came back, Zhou Ying told him the news of the flood in the south and said with emotion: "This Ming Dynasty is really full of disasters."

"It's also normal, without high-yielding seeds, it is inevitable that there will be no food reserves.

Now I am afraid that someone will take the opportunity to rebel, that would be miserable. " Gu Chengrui nodded.

Then he said: "By the way, when I just came back, I heard that the water level of the well at the entrance of the village has dropped."

"So many people use it, it's good to be able to supply it. Fortunately, the sweet potatoes are almost ripe. Once the sweet potatoes are ripe, the water consumption will be small."

"I hope it will last until it rains or snows, otherwise I will have to go deep into the mountains to find a source of water." Gu Chengrui paused and said, "By the way, it will be August 15th soon, why don't you find some time to make ten catties of mooncakes?" .”

"Let's forget about moon cakes. They are too expensive to eat. I'll make some chestnut cakes and kill a sheep.

At that time, the family will send two catties of mutton and one catty of chestnut cake. "

"That's fine, after all, that's what it means, just give me two more wolf skins from the old house."

After dinner at night, the two entered the space. Gu Chengrui looked at the things she had prepared and smiled. After feeding the cattle and sheep.

Let her bring out some wheat bran, peanut fritters, and a lot of dried sweet potato vines, with some dried dandelions.

Then according to the proportion, mix together and make a powder.

Although the mixed noodles look no different from the outside, at least it doesn't hurt your throat when you eat it, and it's healthy.

As for Zhou Ying, she made chestnut cakes, but instead of the ten catties that Gu Chengrui said, she made about fifty catties, all of which were molded out of mooncake molds.
