Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

Chapter 225
After Li Yuquan listened, his eyes lit up immediately:
"The output of one mu of land can feed a family of three for a year and a half?!"

When Wang Tuo heard this, his face also flashed with splendor:
"For a year and a half, wouldn't the yield per mu be over a thousand catties?"

"Exactly!"

Lin Xiao smiled.

"Where is this kind of god-given fairy food?"

Li Yuquan couldn't wait to try it, he rubbed his palms excitedly.

Lin Xiao thought for a while and said:
"Unfortunately, our Great Xia Dynasty has no sweet potatoes."

She paused, then said:
"However, Caomin knows where it is."

"Speak quickly!"

"Need to cross the sea to Southeast Asia, where there are sweet potatoes!"

Li Yuquan and Wang Tuo looked at each other, and there was a flash of surprise in their eyes.

"Then you go to Southeast Asia."

"Yes, the grassroots obey the order."

Lin Xiao bowed down respectfully and replied.

"Ah."

Li Yuquan nodded, suddenly remembered something, his eyes suddenly dimmed:

"The sailing ship needs to be rebuilt, and it will take a year and a half, alas."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the grassroots have a solution."

"Ok?"

Li Yuquan and Wang Tuo turned to Lin Xiao together, and asked puzzledly:

"What can you do?"

"Your Majesty, do you still remember Esther?"

"Ingle's envoy?"

"Yes, their sailing ship ran aground on the east coast. As long as the ship they left behind is repaired, they can go to Southeast Asia to find sweet potatoes."

Lin Xiao replied with a smile.

"Hahaha...that's a good idea!"

When Li Yuquan heard the words, his face burst into smiles, and he immediately ordered Lin Xiao and Zhao Qian to bring a pair of ship repair craftsmen to the east coast to repair the ship after the wedding between Bai Zhancheng and the prime minister's daughter!
Looking at the entire palace, it wasn't just Li Yuquan and others who didn't rest, Li Xianxian and the imperial concubine also didn't rest.

In Fengzao Palace.

The two women sat around the table, each holding a teacup, with their heads lowered, sipping tea continuously.

"In tonight's auction, your Chen family can be regarded as having all the limelight!"

Although Li Xianxian's words could not be heard as praise or criticism, there was a hint of sarcasm in them.

The imperial concubine snorted coldly, not hiding her disgust:
"Isn't that pariah named Lin Xiao doing the trick! If it weren't for him, our Chen family would have taken back a pile of rubbish?"

Li Xianxian chuckled lightly, with a playful tone:

"The imperial concubine is careful! Although those are not rare treasures, they are also offerings from other countries. How can they be rubbish?"

When the imperial concubine heard this, her chest heaved violently with anger. She gritted her teeth and stared at Li Xianxian, wishing to go up and tear this peerless face!
Seeing this, Li Xianxian smiled even brighter.

She knew that all of this was within her expectations.

Li Xianxian took a sip of the tea without haste, and said leisurely:

"Imperial Concubine, it's true that you are the eldest daughter of the Chen family, but your husband's family is the emperor, the father of this palace! It's been so many years, why is your heart always toward your natal family?"

Li Xianxian's tone was full of regret when he spoke, as if he felt heartache for the imperial concubine.

The imperial concubine was so angry that she was trembling all over, she pointed at Li Xianxian with trembling fingertips, and did not say a complete sentence for a long while!

"You are talking nonsense! I have never turned to my mother's family! Don't you want to spit blood!"

"If you didn't go to your natal family, why did you send someone to inform the Chen family in the middle of the night?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xianxian winked at the maid serving beside him.

The maid nodded and turned to leave Fengzao Palace.

After a while, the court lady came slowly, followed by a guard and a trembling little palace lady.

The little palace maid was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was just entrusted by the Chen family to replace Chuntao in the palace, her name was Jasmine.

Jasmine knelt on the ground, tremblingly said:

"Slave and servant send greetings to the first princess and the imperial concubine, and the first princess and the imperial concubine are blessed and safe!"

Li Xianxian glanced at Jasmine who was kneeling on the ground trembling, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said lightly:
"Get up, I ask you, what did you do just now?"

Jasmine was startled when she heard the words, subconsciously raised her head to look at the imperial concubine, then quickly lowered her head.

"Servant."

Jasmine faltered and couldn't speak clearly, with a panicked look on her face.

"What? Don't dare to say?"

"No, no, servant girl"

Dense beads of sweat oozed from Jasmine's forehead, her lips trembled, but she still couldn't speak a complete sentence.

Seeing this scene, the imperial concubine felt a burst of contempt in her heart, thinking that you are such a waste, you dead girl!
"Princess, don't bully others too much, she has just entered the palace, and she doesn't understand many rules!"

"Oh?" Li Xianxian pretended to be surprised, "So, I misunderstood her?"

"This"

The imperial concubine hesitated and didn't know how to argue.

Jasmine hastily kowtowed and hurriedly explained:
"Your servant is wrong! I am willing to be punished!"

"be punished?"

Li Xianxian said coldly:

"Then tell me, why are you being punished?"

"Damn the maidservant, she shouldn't have to go out during the imperial confinement, please punish the princess!"

Jasmine kowtowed in fear and confessed her guilt. When her forehead touched the cold tiles, she felt a sharp pain.

Bead-sized drops of sweat oozed from her forehead, but she didn't dare to stop, so she could only continue to kowtow.

"Look, don't you know the rules, and you know that you can't go out during the forbidden period, imperial concubine, what do you think?"

Li Xianxian cast a sideways glance at the imperial concubine, and said with a half-smile.

The imperial concubine's face turned blue and red.

She was extremely aggrieved.

But Li Xianxian is the first princess, even if their Chen family is as rich as a country, so they can't fight her hard, otherwise it will be disrespectful!
"Forget it, let's get this over with!"

The imperial concubine suppressed the anger in her heart, pondered for a moment, and said slowly.

"Really? But Bengong thinks it's inappropriate to rush things."

Li Xianxian shook his head and looked at the imperial concubine with burning eyes.

The imperial concubine's heart skipped a beat, but her expression remained calm:
"What does the princess want?"

"Imperial things are of extraordinary significance. I hope that the imperial concubine can send a message to her natal family, so that they can keep them well and don't let them leak out, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Li Xianxian said with a smile.

The imperial concubine sneered in her heart.

She had guessed that Li Xianxian would put forward unreasonable conditions, but she never expected that the dignified princess would be so shameless!
To let their Chen family hide those rags and irons like treasures is simply the greatest joke in the world!

However, due to Li Xianxian's status, it was inconvenient for her to get mad.

The imperial concubine took a deep breath, calmed down, smiled softly and sweetly, and said in an intimate tone:
"Princess, don't worry, I will tell them right away, and ask them to keep things safe."

"Then trouble the imperial concubine."

Li Xianxian smiled lightly and watched the imperial concubine leave.

A stern look flashed across her face.

After being vicious, he is ruthless!

Chen family, I want to see how long you can be arrogant!
