Because Xiao Baili was an unmarried woman, Liang Youxiao and Xi Rui had to hold back even though they wanted to get together.
Xi Rong didn't have this concern and immediately went in.
Liang Youxiao and Xi Rui were envious.
When Fei Yuzhe saw the appearance of the two people, he felt that it was really stupid. He didn't know these two people.
Shi Qingluo took some corn from the cobs and ground them into pulp.
Because she wanted everyone to taste the corn, she didn't add anything else.
There happened to be spare ribs at home, so she stewed them with corn.
Just before dinner was ready, Mo Qingling and Old Hou came to the Xiao family in a carriage.
Mo Qingling had already received the emperor's letter, but after seeing these people, he still had a headache.
Only Shi Qingluo could handle so many people. Otherwise, if they were to go to the county town, who knows what kind of chaos would happen.
"Brother Ling!" Liang Youxiao, Xi Rui, Fei Yuzhe and Xi Rong greeted him one after another.
After all, Mo Qingling was once a member of the Beijing playboy circle. Although he suddenly became motivated and changed for the better, the playboys still recognized him.
Mo Qingling smiled coldly, "You guys are really brave. You sneaked to Nanxi County and even alarmed His Majesty."
Liang Youxiao immediately threw the blame, "It was Xi Rui who insisted on running away from home. I was afraid that he would be in danger alone, so I accompanied him."
"Xi Rong is none of our business. She insisted on running away from home with Xi Rui."
Xi Rui: “…” This bastard always sells out his friends.
Xi Rong also glared at Liang Youxiao, "Can you speak?"
It sounded like she had a crush on Xi Rui and wanted to keep him here.
She wouldn't even want someone like Xi Rui, and besides, they are still cousins.
She is one year older than Xi Rui.
Mo Qingling didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, everyone sit down."
"If the corn thing is successful, you can come back to Beijing with us."
He takes corn very seriously.
If it was true, then as the magistrate of Nanxi County, he would naturally escort Xiao Hanzheng and his wife to the capital to offer seeds.
I'm not trying to take credit for it, it's my duty.
He also hoped it was true. The God-given good seed would not only refute the recent rumors that were unfavorable to the emperor, but would also be a blessing for the people of Daliang.
Liang Youxiao and the others did not refuse, "Okay!"
As the first witnesses of such an event, they would of course go back to Beijing. It would be nice to share in the good fortune! A moment after they sat down, Shi Qingluo and Xiao Baili also prepared dinner.
In addition to corn, other dishes were also made.
But at this moment, everyone present focused their attention on the corn.
"This is boiled corn. You can eat it directly."
"These are corn tortillas made from corn pulp."
"This is spareribs cooked with corn."
"My master told me that after the corn is dried, the corn kernels can be ground into powder to make corn steamed bread, corn steamed buns, etc."
After Shi Qingluo finished the introduction, he said, "I'll test the food for everyone first, and I guarantee it's not poisonous."
Then she tasted each.
At this moment, Daidai also came over and kept rubbing Shi Qingluo with his head.
Shi Qingluo loves his own geese very much.
He immediately scooped a spoonful of boiled corn kernels and put them on the ground for Daidai to eat.
She didn't cook the corn cobs directly. After all, with Mr. Hou around, it would be inappropriate for everyone to just eat the corn cobs. All writers have to maintain their image.
Everyone felt extremely distressed when seeing Shi Qingluo feeding the geese with corn.
Daidai finished eating quickly and excitedly called to Shi Qingluo for more.
Shi Qingluo smiled and scooped another spoonful for it.
Liang Youxiao couldn't help but said, "Why are you so wasteful? We haven't even started eating yet and it's already eaten two spoonfuls."
Daidai can understand what people say.
I immediately became unhappy. It was this annoying two-legged sheep again.
Seeing this, Shi Qingluo immediately comforted him, "Ezi, let's not bother with him."
"But we can't eat anymore, or the others will die."
Poor her son, every time he ate two spoonfuls of corn, everyone in the room stared at him eagerly, so she was too embarrassed to feed him any more.
Daidai finished eating the corn on the ground and wanted to eat more, but after hearing what his mother said, he knew it was impossible to eat it anymore.
So he cried a few times feeling aggrieved, and rubbed against Shi Qingluo pitifully.
People present: “…” This goose has become a spirit.
Shi Qingluo felt so distressed that he immediately took out special goose food from his purse and fed it, "Be good, let's eat some of this to satisfy our craving."
"Let's grow more corn at home so you can have enough to eat."
Daidai then cried out reluctantly and ate the goose food with a wronged look on his face.
People present: "..." So this goose was completely Shi Qing's fault.
You eat as much as you want, what a waste.
They felt sad just thinking about it.
Xi Rui muttered to Xiao Hanzheng, "Your wife is even more wasteful than I am."
Xiao Hanzheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "My wife is the only pet like this, it's normal to spoil her a little. Let her spend money as she pleases, as long as she's happy."
As for the goose that often competes with him for favor, he can only love her and love her dog as well.
Xi Rui and others: “…” This is the first time I heard of someone keeping a goose as a pet. Shi Qingluo is really amazing.
Besides, Xiao Hanzheng dotes on his wife too much.
Shi Qingluo was very pleased and happy that her young husband protected and doted on her in public.
She smiled and said, "Come on, everyone try the corn, it tastes very good."
Seeing that she and Daidai were fine after eating it, everyone couldn't wait to try it.
I tried the boiled corn kernels first, and they tasted okay.
I ate some corn tortillas, they were delicious.
The ribs have a sweet flavor because of the corn.
Mr. Hou tasted them one by one, his face full of excitement, "This corn tastes good and can really be used as food."
He looked at Shi Qingluo and asked, "I heard from Jinyu that the yield of corn per acre is 1,000 kilograms?"
Shi Qingluo nodded, "I roughly estimated that there are some, but I don't know if it's accurate."
"We have to weigh it specifically when we harvest it."
Hou Laodao: "If there were a thousand catties, the people of Daliang would have no worries about not having enough to eat."
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "At least most people won't go hungry anymore."
It is unrealistic to feed everyone with corn alone.
If she has the chance in the future, she will take out the sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Mo Qingling was also unusually excited, "It's great to be able to keep most people from going hungry."
"This corn tastes good. Eating it as food is better than eating bran or vegetables."
He asked, "Have you harvested the corn?"
Shi Qingluo replied: "No."
"My husband said that it would be best if Magistrate Mo had people from the county government collect the crops so that they can record the yield per acre."
Mo Qingling smiled and said, "Then I will be disrespectful to refuse."
As the magistrate of Nanxi County, he came in person to check on the harvest of the fallen seeds, which was also within his duties.
This is to be presented to the emperor in the capital, and there can be no falsification.
He is responsible to the emperor and the people.
At the same time, he admired and trusted Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.
If it were anyone else, they would probably just want to sneak around him, the county magistrate, and take the good seeds to the capital to present them as a gift.
Old Hou very much agreed with the actions of his favorite young disciple, who was indeed a material for becoming an official.
