Upon entering the palace, Prince Cheng was not present; he had likely gone to arrange the experimental castration of pigs.
Lin Zao first went to pay her respects to the princess. The two chatted intimately for a while. After declining to stay for dinner, she prepared to take Tang's mother and the others away.
Since she needed to go back early to prepare for planting, the princess did not insist on keeping her. They agreed to meet again at another time, and the princess hurriedly took Tang's mother and the two children home.
Lin Zao sat at her desk, writing something down on a piece of paper while listening to her two children share what they had learned from their teacher at the Prince's Mansion that day and what fun things they had played with.
"Our teacher taught us to recite the Three Character Classic and the Thousand Character Classic! Little Bao also gave us a lot of books for early learning!"
Tiger Head's face was flushed with excitement, clearly indicating that he had a very happy day.
Lin Zao looked at Hu Tou thoughtfully. It seemed that the child was eager to learn. She should find them a good teacher as soon as possible, preferably a private tutor to teach them for two years before sending them to school when they were older.
After Hu Tou and Ya Ya finished speaking, Lin Zao had also finished writing the plan, which mainly included what to plant, what precautions to take, and so on.
After the three women left the study, Tang's mother had not yet rested. Today, the doctor from the Prince's mansion examined her legs, and the result was the same as before: her right leg was completely beyond repair, while the bone in her left leg was healing well and would be fully recovered in a little over a month.
Tang's mother had long accepted her lameness, so she wasn't saddened by the doctor's diagnosis.
Her greatest wish now is for her son to come back and reunite with his family as soon as possible.
When she saw Lin Zao come out of the study with two children, she was not surprised at all.
Back when she bought Lin Zao as her daughter-in-law, she chose her because she was good-looking and had a good demeanor. She didn't want to make her son feel bad. Later, she even discovered that her daughter-in-law could actually read!
She had also suspected that her daughter-in-law might have a complicated background and was afraid of causing trouble. She had tried to find out more about her daughter-in-law from the side, but unfortunately, her daughter-in-law seemed to have been injured before and had forgotten many things, only remembering her own name and a few place names.
"Have you decided what to plant yet?"
"I've already made plans. This year, I'll start by planting some high-yield grains. I'll send the seeds over tomorrow."
Considering the natural disasters of the past few years, the most important thing right now is to have a large amount of food.
In fact, along the way, Tang's mother had also noticed Lin Zao's extraordinary nature, such as the extra grains, meats, and other things she had never seen before.
She pretended not to know, but in the dead of night she would think that maybe there really were gods in this world, otherwise how could so many magical things appear out of thin air?
Therefore, she could turn a blind eye to Lin Zao's changes, because it was because of Lin Zao that she and the twins were living well, and now everything was getting better.
When Lin Zao returned to the village, he brought a cartload of seeds with him.
The main crops grown are sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and other high-yield grains, as well as rice and wheat.
Other vegetable seeds include red and white radishes, bok choy, Chinese cabbage, winter melon, pumpkin, cucumber, and other seasonal vegetables. We also prepared some seasonings such as scallions, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and star anise.
The main crops are sweet potatoes and potatoes, which are used directly as seed, so they take up a lot of space.
The tenants looked at the truckload of seeds, surprised that their new employer had arrived so quickly. However, they didn't recognize most of the seeds, and couldn't help feeling a little worried.
What...what are all these things? Can they even grow them properly?
