The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 249 Suzhou
A group of people got into the carriage and set off. After leaving Qizhou and heading north, they could see more and more mountains and forests. From time to time, there would be some sound of horseshoes, and then they hurriedly passed by the convoy, or The speeding passers-by passed the convoy, leaving only dust flying in the distance.

In the evening, He Wen found a flat place to settle down, and everyone rested early after eating. Li Hua arranged for the guards to take turns to stay on duty at night, adding firewood at any time.

Sleeping on the outskirts, Zhao Yunlan didn't think about how comfortable she would be able to sleep. She woke up early the next day with Li Mingren, and everyone hurriedly tidied up and had breakfast before continuing on their way.

The horse was running, He Wen saw a dark cloud in front of him, and saw that it was going to rain, so he speeded up.In the end, it still couldn't keep up with God's arrangement, the rain started to fall, and the horse slowed down after an hour of continuous rain.

"It's really uncomfortable to drive on a rainy day." Zhao Yunlan couldn't help but said, she just opened the curtain to check the weather, but by chance, her arm was covered with splashed wet mud.

Li Mingren wiped Zhao Yunlan's arm, couldn't help but smiled, and said, "The voice is much quieter, hey~ I'm just afraid that we won't be able to enter the city gate in time."

Zhao Yunlan: "Then pay more attention to see if there are any farmers."

Chunxiang hurriedly poked her head out to explain to He Wen.

It didn’t work out as expected. I didn’t see any farmhouses along the way. Seeing that I couldn’t make it to the city gate, Zhao Yunlan was ready to sleep out for another night, but I saw a ruined temple. .

"Master, madam, there is nothing unusual inside, only burnt ashes, which should be left by the people who stayed overnight." Li Hua led someone out to report.

Li Mingren: "Okay, let's just make do with one night here."

Zhao Yunlan nodded and got out of the carriage.He Wen and the others cleared out a clean place, and Zhao Yunlan asked Chunxiang to spread the rough cloth on the floor. The floor was a bit hard, so he could lie down at night with his legs stretched out to sleep.

He Hua and Mrs. Tang were preparing to eat, and their conditions were limited, so they couldn't cook any good dishes, so He Hua cooked a pimple soup, which was more comfortable to eat warm.

Li Mingren watched Li Hua lead the team in from the outside, and said, "Let's eat first."

Li Hua: "Yes, master. I have already led a team to patrol around, and there is no abnormality nearby, and I will take turns to be on duty at night."

"Well, you arrange it."

After a group of people have finished their work, they should take a rest and take a night watch.Early the next morning, everyone got up early and rushed into the city.

"Suzhou is here." Zhao Yunlan looked at the open city gate ahead.

Li Mingren: "It takes five days to travel from Suzhou to Cangzhou. We will stay in the city for one night today, and we will go on the road early tomorrow morning, and buy some necessary supplies by the way."

"Okay." Zhao Yunlan nodded in agreement.

When the carriage entered the city, He Wen still found an inn near the city gate to stay.

"I want to wash up first, but I always feel that my hair is covered with a lot of dust."

Li Mingren: "Okay, then I'll go downstairs to see what food is available, and I can eat after you wash up."

Zhao Yunlan nodded and went into the bathroom.

……

After the meal, Li Mingren washed up, while Zhao Yunlan lay down outside and fell asleep.I thought I could go out with my wife after washing up, but seeing Zhao Yunlan sleeping soundly, I couldn't bear to wake her up.

Li Mingren had no choice but to take Ye Sheng out. There is nothing special about Suzhou, and the things bought on the street are not unusual, so Li Mingren just looked around casually, bought some anti-snake and insect medicine, and then hurried on. If you use more, you need to prepare more of these medicines.

When the master and servant returned to the inn, Zhao Yunlan had already woken up and was drinking tea in the lobby of the inn.

"What did you buy?" Zhao Yunlan asked while pouring tea for Li Mingren.

Li Mingren: "I bought some medicine. Are you hungry?"

Zhao Yunlan shook her head: "I'm not hungry yet. I've been thinking about the situation in Shiyang County during the past few days. I'm afraid it will be difficult."

"Yeah, that's the border, so there will be troops stationed there, not only under the control of the magistrate, but also from the pressure of those generals."

"You work hard." Zhao Yunlan thought to herself that she didn't know much about the officialdom, even though she had received higher education, it was actually just a drop in the bucket here. This world is not only a matter of life, but also a matter of survival.

The husband and wife were silent, and suddenly Zhao Yunlan's thoughts drifted away, so she said, "Let's buy some grain seeds and take them there."

Li Mingren: "Huh?"

Zhao Yunlan: "Didn't you say that the grain yield over there is not high? I was wondering if it might be a problem with the grain seeds. Let's take some grain seeds from here to try to grow one, and then buy some other seeds. Take it."

Li Mingren nodded: "It has to be a lady!"

Zhao Yunlan gave her a blank look: "Come on, let's do it quickly! Otherwise, we will go far after Suzhou. Choose good grains."

"Aren't you going with me?"

Zhao Yunlan: "I don't want to go, I want to spend more time lying on the bed, go, and wait for you to come back for dinner."

Li Mingren: "Okay, then I'll go out."

Li Mingren came to the street again, this time with Ye Sheng, He Wen and Li Hua.The four masters and servants ran all over the grain shops in Suzhou City, and bought three packs of wheat seeds, which can grow about ten mu of land.They had already paid and were about to leave. Li Mingren looked at the rice placed at the door of the grain shop, and thought about buying some rice seeds.

Li Mingren has learned about the planting situation in Shiyang County. Almost all of them grow wheat, and the rest are sweet potatoes, not rice.After thinking about it, he added two more bags of rice seeds to the car. Li Mingren thought about going to the field to see the situation first. If it works, he can try farming together. If it doesn't work, he will grind the good rice seeds to eat. Definitely delicious.

"Let's see what we can grow, and bring some over there." Li Mingren thought about buying everything, and then looked at the others.

The four masters and servants pushed the cart all the way around to have a look, but they bought a lot of vegetables.

When they returned to the inn, Zhao Yunlan had already ordered the food, and was waiting for Li Mingren to come back to serve the food. After walking back and forth for a day, Li Mingren was hungry, and the husband and wife had a satisfying meal and then went to rest early After all, the next step is to sleep in the wild waiting for everyone.

Early the next morning, with the moon still hanging in the sky, Li Mingren and Zhao Yunlan set off.

"Has the grain been installed? I'm worried that it will rain on the road, and I'm afraid I won't be able to find a suitable shelter from the rain." Zhao Yunlan looked at the car behind.

Li Mingren nodded: "Well, don't worry, He Wen is still very reliable in his work. There are two layers of oil paper on the top and bottom, and the outside is covered with cloth and straw."

"Well, let's go!" Zhao Yunlan nodded reassuringly.

After the carriage wobbled out of the city gate, it speeded up. Zhao Yunlan couldn't help sighing as she watched the road that was getting wider and wider, with fewer and fewer people.

Perhaps this is the mission of the heavenly general!
　This situation is particularly bad recently, and I will take care of it.
