"My lady, I will make sure you live a good life. Wait for me to come back!"
Liu's demands on him were not high.
Tears rolled down her cheeks, but a smile hung on her lips.
"Just come back alive!"
"ah?"
The tears flowed to the eye sockets and suddenly stopped.
Liu burst into laughter.
"Idiot!"
“Hehehehe!”
Zhan Zixing smiled foolishly, and really looked like a fool.
...
...
With hope, the spirit and morale of the people of Jing County seemed to have changed overnight!
They began to spontaneously work together to dig wells.
This time, Su Jianyue bought a lot of potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn.
Because they were so heavy, she specifically asked the deliveryman to place them directly on the tatami.
Su Jianyue finally discovered it.
As long as she doesn't go up to the tatami, no one can transfer things to two time and space at will.
She gave a few porters some extra money for their hard work and waited until they sent the people away.
It was completely dark.
Su Jianyue barely squeezed onto the tatami.
The tatami that was filled with food was suddenly half empty.
Make room.
Su Jianyue then pushed the other half of the food to the empty side little by little.
The mountains of food were like being pushed into a bottomless pit.
After a while, all the tatami in the house were empty again.
Su Jianyue was panting. She walked to the living room and drank three glasses of water in one breath before she could barely recover.
She thought about it, wrapped the sweet potatoes and corn in tin foil, and put them in the oven to bake.
With a "ding" sound.
The oven stopped working.
Xiao Yuqi happened to come over, holding a big, bright red sweet potato in his hand.
He looked a little excited.
He was dressed in a dark robe, and his stern face showed a childlike joy.
"Is this the sweet potato you gave me before?"
On his side, the sweet potatoes have only grown into seedlings, which have just been planted and have not yet produced any fruits.
Even he didn't know what this fruit tasted like.
I don’t even know how to cook it.
After carrying the things out the door, he hurried over.
"yes."
Su Jianyue shifted her gaze away from her phone.
Gu Qingze, this psychopath, just created a group.
The name of the group is: The cool and domineering five-member group.
There happened to be only five people inside: him, Su Jianyue, Lin Niannian, Ji Mengqiu and Xia Qianqian.
——Akiriko:?
——Xia Jintiao: Cool, wild and domineering? Who are they?
——The most handsome man in Yuncheng: cool, domineering and arrogant. Of course, I’m referring to me!
——Xia Jintiao: ...
——Qilizi: Brother, you are embarrassed to come to my house, right?
The emoticon of Su Jianyue laughing wildly has not been sent out yet.
Then she saw Xiao Yuqi walking towards her with big strides.
"I baked a few more, would you like to try them?"
Su Jianyue got up, opened the oven, and took out the baked sweet potatoes and corn.
She also poured the bone soup that was specially reserved for him in the afternoon into exquisite soup bowls and brought them to the counter one by one.
Finally, he brought Xiao Yuqi a bowl, chopsticks and a soup spoon.
Su Jianyue opened the silver tin foil swiftly. The sweet potatoes inside had been baked to a soft and sticky texture. A rich sweet aroma wafted out from the tin foil.
The bright red flesh bursts open, and the red skin is so thin that it melts in your mouth with just a sip.
She broke the sweet potato into two halves and handed it to Xiao Yuqi.
Xiao Yuqi took the sweet potato and took a bite of the soft and glutinous flesh.
He was pleasantly surprised by the mellow and smooth taste, as sweet as honey.
"So, this is what the fruit looks like when it's grown? It tastes really good!"
Su Jianyue scooped the soup for him.
"The sweet potatoes I sent you are not as good as mine, but they are also grown in red soil and are very sweet. The cooking method is very simple. You just need to throw them into the fire and roast them. When there was a famine in our country, we saved most of the people in the country with just sweet potatoes and potatoes. This can be said to be a life-saving food. It is high-yielding, easy to feed, and has a strong sense of satiety. It is just right for you now."
"Potatoes? Is that the fruit that was just delivered to you, the one that looks very similar to sweet potatoes?"
"Yes, that's it!"
Su Jianyue pushed the scooped soup in front of Xiao Yuqi.
He picked up another corn cob and peeled off the tin foil, revealing the golden, plump flesh that looked like golden beads.
"This is called corn, which is the maize of your time. However, our modern varieties are better. Both in taste and yield, they are far superior to those of ancient times."
Xiao Yuqi put down the sweet potato and took a bite of the corn.
Sweet, soft and juicy.
Sure enough, the taste is much better than corn.
"This can be eaten raw, but it tastes better when cooked or roasted. You can also mix this food into the relief porridge and cook it together. It should be able to sustain you for a while longer."
Relying solely on Su Jianyue's food supplies can only solve the immediate problem.
Xiao Yuqi sent people to the south to collect grain.
However, the south suffered severe flooding this year and grain production was not high.
Coupled with the layers of exploitation, the people could barely fill their stomachs.
The years were bad and the price of food also went up.
There were also people who interfered and the grain collection effort had little effect.
All the things, one by one, were placed on his shoulders alone.
So much so that after coming to the Northern Territory for a few days, Su Jianyue clearly felt that Xiao Yuqi had lost a lot of weight.
"This is the soup I made this afternoon. Drink more and it will nourish your body."
As soon as these words came out.
Su Jianyue suddenly remembered, "Just now..."
Xiao Yuqi's hand holding the soup spoon suddenly stopped.
Oops, he forgot that he is now half crippled!
"Is your leg okay?"
really.
Su Jianyue noticed something strange.
Xiao Yuqi swallowed and smiled, "No."
This is said without any confidence.
However, he continued with a confident attitude: "You also know that I am the Son of Heaven. I can't walk with a limp in front of others, right?"
"It seems... that's the truth!"
In ancient times, every move of an emperor could be magnified infinitely. If it were today, he would limp in public.
I’m afraid that before dawn, the rumor that Xiao Yuqi’s leg was broken would quickly spread across the country.
"So, I get hurt often, but I never dare to show it to others. As long as I have a breath left, I will still be as strong as a sword and immune to all poisons."
Su Jianyue felt distressed when hearing these words.
"How did you get here after all these years?"
A man of Xiao Yuqi's age, in modern times, would be just a college student about to step out of the campus.
There are many people who cannot support themselves.
But on his shoulders lies the honor, disgrace, rise and fall of a country.
He not only has to take care of the food in his own bowl, but also has to work hard to ensure that the people of the country have enough to eat.
How difficult is it?
Thinking of this, Su Jianyue put another large piece of meat bone into Xiao Yuqi's bowl.
"Eat more. When you are here, tell me what's going on. If you are hurt or feel uncomfortable, tell me and I will take care of you!"
Poor child!
