The Devil Emperor's Crazy Concubine

Chapter 296
As soon as he was free, Zhang Xiaowan thought of something to do.

For the taro at home, Zhang Xiaowan kept more than a dozen whole ones without any gaps.

She only knows that the taro is to be sown after the frosty weather. This is what she heard from the older generation, and her grandmother's house has never grown this kind of thing.

Although Zhang Xiaowan used to help her grandma do farm work in the countryside, at most she just pulled pig grass to feed the pigs, and she never did any work in the field. She was still very young at that time, how could her grandma let her go? She does this kind of thing, if she knows how to do this kind of thing, she knows the general steps of planting potatoes, but she really doesn't know much about taro planting.

Seeing that the taro in her hand was about the same size as the potatoes she had seen in her previous life, she thought, this method is probably similar, right?
Or, try it first?Zhang Xiaowan was not absolutely sure, so he had to try first.

But once you decide to try, the problem arises.

What she worries about first is that the climate of the Dafeng Dynasty is different from the modern times where she lives. It is not yet deep winter, and the sun is warm. It seems that there is no temperature at all.

This winter is really cold, the white sun is hanging, the frost on the ground is getting thicker and thicker, and there is no sign of melting at all.

Potatoes need to be kept at temperature to germinate before sowing. If she wants to germinate in the same way as potatoes, first of all, the temperature will not be maintained.

Now that the weather is definitely below freezing, where is she going to provide the 15 or so degrees needed to keep germination going?

Zhang Xiaowan wanted to wrap the charcoal ash with residual temperature to accelerate germination, but he didn't know if it could reach the temperature required for the germination of taro.

In fact she tried and failed.

The warm charcoal ash was still warm at first, but after a while, in such a cold weather, the temperature disappeared completely. She also tried to wrap it tightly with a large pile of charcoal fire, but the ash inside was still cold , did not retain any temperature.

First of all, she couldn't proceed with the first step. She tried for half a month without getting discouraged, but the experiment still failed.

Zhang Xiaowan was extremely disappointed. She even doubted whether she could handle the matter of raising rice seedlings next spring. What she knew about doing farm work in her previous life was not very clear. It's a little different. In a different climate, she doesn't know if she can succeed in what she wants to do.

She felt that she still thought things too simply.

At this time, the weather was getting colder day by day. Perhaps it was the coldness and cruelty of winter that affected Zhang Xiaowan's mood. For the first time, she no longer felt that things could be endured. I felt extremely hopeless, and I became depressed.

She was not as active as usual in boiling water and cooking. She became lazy and had no energy to do anything. Sometimes she sat there for a long time without moving, and her mind went blank.

**
Something was wrong with Zhang Xiaowan, after two or three days, even Zhang Xiaobao and Zhang Xiaodi noticed it, they didn't keep arguing around Zhang Xiaowan like usual, nor did they see Zhang Xiaowan ignoring them these days, they also So they ran to the side and played with each other, but both of them sat quietly beside Zhang Xiaowan. They didn't dare to make noise with her, so they sat obediently beside her, hoping that this would make her feel better.

Zhang Xiaowan seemed to have lost his soul for several days, Zhang Afu couldn't hold back, and asked Liu Sanniang worriedly behind his back, "What's wrong with my daughter?"

For more than half a month, Liu Sanniang saw Zhang Xiaowan tossing the yams. After seeing her disappointed that day, she stuffed the yams into a pile of ashes and never touched them again. look.
