Chapter 231 Lost in Mind

Lingsu talked about sowing the hundreds of acres of land after the autumn harvest, whether winter wheat was to be planted.

Lingyu made up his mind about this matter: "Let's plant half of it with winter wheat and half with winter green manure. Wait a few years and see how much difference there is in the yield between the land planted with winter wheat and the land planted with green manure. By the way, Third Sister, Do you want to set aside a part of the land to grow medicinal materials for you?"

Lingsu nodded: "Yes, I just happened to take my apprentices to work with them, and let them know more about the medicinal materials. Even if I don't practice medicine in the future, just the skill of working with medicinal materials will be a lifelong career, and I can support myself. Our village is just outside the Dongze Forest, and the climate is very suitable for growing medicinal materials."

After thinking for a while, he added: "There is no need to leave too much. In addition to the original planting, ten acres of land will be enough. The output of planting medicinal materials is just enough for the pen, ink and paper used by the children to learn medicine." I don’t charge tuition fees, but I teach for free, and there’s no need to spend too much money on it. Let them take care of it themselves.”

"Besides, leave me another thirty acres of land to grow roses. To use rouge gouache, roses are needed. Unlike medicinal materials, roses are difficult to buy in large quantities."

Lingyu nodded: "Okay."

The flower dew that was once a precious commodity in the Rongguo Duke's mansion can now be made at home, and the quality is even better. Lingyu likes it very much, and she supports the idea of ​​growing roses.

"Third sister, should we plant the roses in these thirty acres of land now or next spring?"

"Is it okay to plant it now and survive the winter? Xiaoxun only has a few cut flower branches. If they freeze to death in winter, where can they find them?"

Lingyu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm here. There is no need to do experiments and comparisons on this. I will use spiritual energy to promote them all for you. If you keep them, they will all bloom next year."

Lingsu said happily: "That's great, but will it make you tired? After this busy day of farming, you are the most tired. You are still young. Look, you have become skinny and dark recently. Fortunately, father and mother are not at home. , otherwise, I don’t know how distressed I would be.”

Lingyu didn't care much about her appearance. She pursed her lips and smiled: "Just don't let dad and mom know. I'll be able to raise you back in a few days. What's the point of using spiritual energy to induce birth? After the spiritual energy is used up, just recover. That's it." It’s something that is beneficial to your cultivation. Haven’t you seen that my cultivation level has increased rapidly recently? I am now the person with the highest cultivation level in the family, except for my second brother.”

Lingsu thought so too. For Lingyu, farming is cultivation.

While the two sisters were talking, they saw Qixun holding up chopsticks and wandering around, while the eldest brother was staring at Li Chu eating. The little white tiger no longer knows where he ran.

"Xiao Xun, what are you thinking about?"

Fortunately, I was only holding up my chopsticks. If I were eating, I was afraid of being burned.

Xiaoxun was woken up and said hurriedly: "I'm thinking about what kind of tool I can use to play cotton."

The traditional large bow made of cotton is easy to make, but the cotton made out of it is thick and warm when used as a mattress. It's just made into a quilt, which is a bit oppressive.

At home, you can now use the down quilts stored in your own space, such as soy fiber quilts, especially down quilts, which are light and warm, but they cannot last a lifetime.

For the quality of life, the current silk quilts are actually pretty good.

But quilts are a mass product that can be used by ordinary people in the future. They are much cheaper than silk quilts. At least most ordinary people can afford one or two beds in a family.

Isn't this the purpose of her planting and promoting cotton?

We still have to find ways to improve the technology. Otherwise, after several years of use, the cotton wool will be repeatedly bounced, and its warmth retention and comfort will be extremely poor.

Except for Brother Monkey, no one else could help Qi Xun, so he stopped caring about her and asked her to eat well and think about it later.

After finishing the hot pot dinner and clearing away the dishes, the brothers and sisters sat in the yard drinking tea and chatting.

Li Chu ran around the little white tiger all over the yard.

The moon in early September was only a crescent, but the stars were brilliant.

It's just that the evening breeze feels a little cold on people.

Qixun sighed: "It's a pity that the second brother is not here, otherwise I would like to burn some glass at home and build a greenhouse. Now it's a little cold when I go out at night, admiring the moon and stars. In winter, I'm afraid it's just It’s so depressing to be able to stay in the house. Alas, I used to say that I wanted to build a glass greenhouse so that my mother and Xiao Wu could grow flowers and vegetables.”

As a result, the glass technology was given to King Yu, and Xin Ruoxia gave him a lot of glass for her house, but the glass was good for doors and windows, but the quality was worse for building a greenhouse. The key is, it was all small pieces of glass. .

I don’t know to what extent their current technological research has advanced, and whether they can produce better quality glass.

It's a pity that the capital city is far away after all. Otherwise, I could go and have a look, help improve the technology, and build two large greenhouses for my home, one to grow flowers and one to grow vegetables.

Lingsu laughed. You could say she is very particular. She eats whatever is given to her and wears whatever is given to her. Last year, they lived in such tight quarters. The three sisters lived in the same house as their mother, and the house had been empty for a long time. I didn’t see her complaining about the old house.

But if you want to say that she is not particular, she would like to turn her home into a fairy palace in the sky.

"You were thinking about cotton before, and now you are suddenly thinking about the greenhouse. Stop thinking about things. My second brother is not at home. You are not allowed to do it alone. What if you get hurt?"

Qixun waved his hand: "It can't be hurt. I am a cultivated person now."

Although her family's cultivation level is now the lowest, even her eldest brother Fusu has caught up with her.

But Qixun was not in a hurry. There is no need to rush the matter of cultivation.

Her qualifications, the second brother said, are a bit special, and the original scripture she practices is a more mysterious and profound mental method than the Dapin Tianxian Jue. She also practices the Star Jue and the Nine Turns Mysterious Technique. She will be damned if she is not slow. .

She is now focused on polishing her physical body, so her cultivation will naturally increase slowly.

However, the matter of burning glass must be left to her dear Monkey King.

Brother Monkey is now learning to refine weapons. It shouldn't be difficult to burn glass, and if it is fired using the weapon refinement method, the quality of glass will definitely be much higher than that of normal fired glass.

Her goal is to help her monkey brother to burn glass of a quality that can be used to build a glass house under water.

Well, from now on, she will work hard to build an island for industry in the sea east of Dongze Forest, and then build a viewing room on the seabed, and go to the sea to escape the heat in the summer!

How beautiful that would be.

Fusu and Lingsu Lingyu couldn't help but fantasize about their ideals.

They have watched documentaries about the underwater world, such a colorful and magical underwater world, with all kinds of colorful fish and shrimps, dazzling corals and clams, and then their family lives among them, opening their eyes and looking at it How wonderful it would be to go to that dreamlike world?

Lingyu said excitedly: "Can you really build an undersea glass house?"

Qixun said that it is theoretically possible, but the key depends on the second brother's weapon refining skills.
