"Mingda, eat less sweet potatoes, there's boiled corn here!"
Although it was a pleasure to watch the little girl eat, Zhou Yu didn't dare to let her eat the whole sweet potato.
If you eat too much and can't digest it, you will feel so uncomfortable that you will be heartbroken.
"Yeah, little one, I want seven corns~"
The little guy’s main role is to listen to advice.
Although he was reluctant to give up the sweet sweet potatoes, he thought that he had never eaten corn before, so he hesitated for a moment and put the remaining sweet potatoes down.
"Come, everyone, try it. The early corn at this time of year is neither too old nor too tender, and the taste is just right."
Seeing that Li Lizhi and Chengyang were also attracted by his words, Zhou Yu immediately picked up the cooked corn and handed it to them.
"Thank you, young master."
"Thank you, Brother Zhou Yu."
The two princesses quickly stood up to express their gratitude, which made Zhou Yu look helpless.
Looking at the little kid next to him, he had already started chewing on the corn cob.
Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh again, it's still easier to take care of the little milk ball.
As the sweet and soft corn entered his mouth, the little boy's eyes lit up again, "Wow, little one, the corn smells so good~ It's so delicious~"
As he said that, he continued to chew the food in big mouthfuls like a little hamster.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but rub her little head lovingly.
She is really a little princess who is easy to raise.
Turning to look at Chengyang, the little girl was also holding a corn cob and chewing it happily.
He even picked up the corn kernels that fell on the table and put them in his mouth.
Seeing the two little ones eating so sweetly, Zhou Yu felt that his appetite had improved a lot.
"Young Master, this corn..."
"This corn can also be grown in the Tang Dynasty, but the yield is average."
Zhou Yu had guessed that Li Lizhi would ask this question, and gave the answer directly without waiting for her to finish her words.
In modern times, corn can easily produce 1,000 kilograms per mu.
But if we take the Tang Dynasty, which did not have chemical fertilizers, the output would probably not be much different from that in the 1950s and 1960s.
Compared with high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, corn has no obvious advantages in the Tang Dynasty except for its storage resistance.
After hearing his answer, Li Lizhi lowered her head with a look of disappointment.
Zhou Yu smiled helplessly and immediately pointed at the potatoes in her bowl and said, "Try this first and see how it tastes."
Since I have already taken out the sweet potatoes, I don’t mind giving Li Er an extra kind of potatoes.
Of course, the reason why he was so generous was mainly because of the promise Li Lizhi had made before.
If only I could use these ubiquitous things to get a reward for the little kid.
Even if I can't continue traveling through time in the future, I can still feel more at ease.
“It tastes similar to sweet potatoes. Although it doesn’t have the sweetness of sweet potatoes, it has a unique flavor when stewed with goose.”
Seeing Zhou Yu introducing the potatoes so solemnly, Li Lizhi picked them up and put them into her mouth without any hesitation.
After savoring it carefully, he gave a pertinent answer with a serious look on his face.
"Little Neng-jun, I want seven too~"
The little girl was chewing some corn, but when she heard Li Lizhi's comment, she stretched her little head over to Zhou Yu.
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to Mingda right away."
Zhou Yu naturally gave priority to satisfying the little foodie's request.
He picked up a piece of potato soaked in the soup and put it directly into the little kid's mouth.
"Awoo~Awoo~That's so good~"
Seeing the little girl enjoying herself, Zhou Yu turned around and continued to talk to Li Li, "The yield of potatoes is about the same as that of sweet potatoes. Compared to the sweeter sweet potatoes, potatoes are not only suitable as food, but can also be eaten as a vegetable. Most importantly, potatoes can be stored longer than sweet potatoes."
"Can this be grown in the Tang Dynasty?"
As soon as Zhou Yu finished speaking, Li Lizhi couldn't wait to ask.
But when she thought of what Zhou Yu had said before, she lowered her head in embarrassment.
"It's definitely possible to plant it, but..."
"Don't worry, young master. My father will definitely agree to the promises I made before."
Seeing Zhou Yu's words take a turn, Li Lizhi, who was full of joy, thought that he was going to put forward conditions, and immediately patted her chest and made a promise.
Zhou Yu nodded after hearing this, and then continued: "I have another condition. These crops brought back from here must be promoted under the name of Sizi."
"In the name of Sizi?"
When Li Lizhi heard this, she was stunned at first, but then she understood Zhou Yu's intention.
Crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes, which can save countless lives, would surely cause a sensation throughout the Tang Dynasty.
Zhou Yurang promoted it under the name of Sizi, which undoubtedly created a golden body to protect Sizi.
Even if Qingque really inherited the throne at that time, he would never dare to touch Xiao Sizi at all.
After all, if he angers the people of the world, he might even lose his throne.
After thinking this through, Li Lizhi couldn't help but turn her head to look at the little girl.
Seeing the little person still busy eating as if he didn't hear anything, she suddenly felt endless envy.
If there is someone who can think of me in every way, even if I pledge my love to him, what's the harm in that...
"Is there something wrong?"
Judging from the little girl's performance, Li Er must have given her considerable power.
Compared with the promise made by that king of a different surname, the current conditions are almost like giving it away for free.
After all, the little girl is his, Li Er's daughter.
As long as the title is awarded to his daughter, the Tang Dynasty can gain such a great benefit.
Unless Li Er's brain was kicked by a donkey, it would be impossible for him to disagree.
