The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 1451 Fish Cake

Zhou Shuren left the palace at noon, and spent the whole morning talking with the emperor about what could be used instead of food. The people on the grassland are now relying on military rations for relief. The food relief is not much, and they are full of one and a half meals a day, as long as they don't starve to death.

The food for the soldiers cannot be relieved all the time, and the food for the grassland people cannot be delayed.

After leaving the palace, Zhou Shuren saw Jinyan's happy face, and before Zhou Shuren could ask, Jinyan said, "Master, Princess Qin is awake."

Zhou Shuren's sad face disappeared, and his face was filled with joy, "It's good when you wake up, it's good when you wake up, what did the imperial doctor say after seeing it?"

I sincerely said, "The imperial doctor said that the princess needs to rest, and it is not suitable to move now, and she has to be confinement."

Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief. He was happy when his daughter woke up. His eyes fell on the falling snowflakes, and his face was sad again. Food, "Let's go, let's go back to the household department."

He had to plan carefully for the newly harvested grain.

In the Zhou family, Zhulan fed the daughter porridge until she couldn't drink any more, then let the girl take it away, and wiped the corners of the daughter's mouth with a handkerchief.

Xuehan was still very weak, "Mom, you don't have to take care of me yourself, there is a girl!"

Zhulan, "Let me take care of you, so I feel at ease. This time, let my mother take good care of your confinement."

Xuehan felt tired even when talking. When she was in a coma, she was unconscious. She fell into a coma until she woke up. It felt as if she had passed through the gate of hell.

Xuehan, "Mom, you and Dad are worried these days."

Zhulan touched her daughter's hand, it was cold after taking it out of the bed for a while, she hurriedly put it back under the bed, "Since you know we are worried, you will take good care of yourself in the future."

Xuehan was also frightened for a while, she almost felt uncomfortable when she thought of the child's lung problems, "Yeah."

Zhulan saw that her daughter was not mentally alert, she just woke up and needed more rest, when she heard footsteps, Rong Chuan came back from washing, stood up and said, "I'm going to see the child."

The child was guarded by an imperial physician who lived in Zhou's house.

Rong Chuan's eyes were bloodshot, "How do you feel?"

Xuehan raised her hand and touched her husband's face, "I just fell asleep, why do I feel how old you are?"

"I worry about you."

Xuehan had tears in her eyes,

"You just can't take care of yourself."

Rong Chuan didn't dare to close his eyes, and held his lady's hand, "My lady, give me a place, I want to sleep with you."

Xuehan stared, "This is the bed for confinement."

Although there is no taboo that men are not allowed to enter the confinement room, they have never slept together.

But Rong Chuan carefully hugged his wife and moved away, and lay down smoothly, "I can't sleep without you by my side."

Xuehan looked at the dumbfounded female officer, who seemed hesitant to speak, Xuehan lowered her head again, and the husband had already fallen asleep.

In Qizhou, Changlian looked up at the sky, "Snow, is it snowing?"

The voice was full of uncertainty.

The magistrate looked serious, and looked up at the falling snowflakes, "Well, it's snowing."

Chang Lian's eyes widened, "I have been in Qizhou for several years, and this is the first time I have seen snow in Qizhou. This."

The magistrate rubbed his hands, this year's flood has affected Qizhou too much, and there is a shortage of everything, "This year's weather is colder than usual."

Chang Lian's heart sank, "The winter rice is less than half harvested, the fish haven't grown much, and the winter vegetables just planted by the common people will freeze to death in this snowfall?"

The magistrate frowned. The imperial court exempted the disaster-stricken state from taxation, so that the people had enough food to survive. This winter vegetable was also a life-saving vegetable. "The relief food sent by the imperial court is gone."

Chang Lian nodded, "Well, this batch of grain lasted until the winter rice was harvested, and now the winter rice has been harvested, so there is no relief food at all."

The magistrate said, "There is not much money in the government office."

Chang Lian sullenly said, "I just hope that the snow will not be heavy."

If it snows heavily, this winter will be even more difficult.

The magistrate looked at Changlian, "I will cooperate with you on what you propose."

He had a bad feeling about this snowfall. Although the people harvested rice and some food, the food production was too low, and the people with few fields could not survive the winter. He saved more food to save lives. As for the court, the court There is no more food left.

And if he writes another booklet to go to Beijing, it will be his incompetence.

Chang Lian raised his eyebrows. He had already thought up a plan, but the prefect suppressed it, because the court approved the relief food, and now the snow made the prefect uneasy, "Yes."

In the blink of an eye, it took five days. Xuehan recovered very well and could sit for a while. Rong Chuan wanted to accompany his wife to confinement, but there were too many things waiting for him. luggage and set off for Pinggang.

The ships patrolling Pinggang came back and brought back a lot of seafood, and he went to Pinggang to be responsible for the processing of the seafood.

In just a few days, Pinggang has established several workshops dealing with seafood, just waiting for the arrival of King Qin.

This is the method discussed by Zhou Shuren and the emperor. Rice bran and straw are mixed with some cornmeal, some fish meat and sea vegetables are added, and baked into pancakes. Fish meat can also resist some hunger. Try to make the most of the fish.

The fish bones are not wasted, they are all ground into powder to supplement calcium and fight hunger. At this time, we only want to survive, and the smell of fish is not considered.

Now ginger is an important substance, there is not so much ginger to remove the fishy smell, let alone wine, this year's grain production is low, the imperial court has controlled wine making, and some private wineries are not allowed to make wine.

In order to catch more fish, the imperial court also asked the navy to organize private fishing boats to go to sea together.

In the household department, Zhou Shuren touched the teacup, he also thought of goat milk, etc., and sighed.

The Supreme Emperor, "Why is Shuren sighing?"

Zhou Shuren, "I feel sorry for the sheep and cattle that the grassland herdsmen managed to raise."

The worst part of the war is the common people. The people in the grassland are the losers. The deserters of their own tribes are robbed, and the officers and soldiers of the imperial court are also robbed. The cattle and sheep cannot be kept at all. Large quantities of sheep and cattle are gone.

This is the case, now that the price of beef and mutton in the capital has risen, it is still very scarce.

Taishanghuang, "Shuren is distressed by the goat's milk and milk in the grassland."

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Yes, if there are herds of cattle and sheep, dairy products are nutritious and still hungry."

He can do more with goat's milk and milk, but it's a pity that he doesn't have any, so he said that there is no good way, just having an idea without material support is not empty talk, and now he can only think of a way on the ocean.

Fortunately, there was no pollution in ancient times, and the coastal waters did not have a fishing moratorium like modern fishing. The first time the navy tried fishing, the harvest was good.

Taishanghuang, "The fish bone meal you mentioned is very good."

He has already eaten the grilled fish bones made by the imperial chef, not to mention the taste is really good, but it is a pity that he has bad teeth due to his age.

Zhou Shuren squinted his eyes. He could actually grow mushrooms, but he didn't know how to make fungus spores. It was really not his specialty.
