Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 263 Sweet Potatoes
Yinzhen was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said seriously: "If Cheng'er was born in a commoner's family, I should be Cheng'er's boy next door. When I get old, I will tell my parents how I like you. We are childhood sweethearts together." When they grow up, they will marry each other and die together.”

Tong Cheng'er was taken aback when she heard the words, and then blushed, what this man said was really nice!
The carriage crossed the street, left the city, and went up to Zhuangzi outside the city.

Although the carriage was equipped with springs, it was also the official road, but there were many carriages on the official road, so the road was inevitably bumpy, so Yinzhen repeatedly ordered the driver to go slower.

It doesn't matter if you arrive later, the key is not to overturn Xiao Fujin.

The road was slow, and Tong Cheng'er didn't feel the slightest discomfort. When he arrived, it was almost noon.

The two got out of the carriage and entered the yard that had been prepared long ago. Su Peisheng immediately came over and ordered: "The kitchen on the Zhuangzi has prepared meals. I don't know when the master and Fujin want to eat."

When Tong Cheng'er heard him talking about the food, she suddenly got an appetite, swallowed and looked at Yinzhen.

Yinzhen smiled helplessly, and said, "Let's serve!"

Su Peisheng: "Yes."

It is now May, and the weather is neither hot nor cold, but comfortable.

After eating, Tong Cheng'er said that she wanted to go out for a walk.

The imperial doctor also said that you can walk around during pregnancy, and the fetus in the womb is very beneficial, so Yinzhen naturally has no reason why he shouldn't.

This farm is quite big, with a lot of fields, where crops and seasonal melons and fruits are planted, but when they came out it was in the afternoon, and there was no one in the fields.

The two were walking on the path in the field, and Tong Cheng'er had the feeling of returning to the farm life in her previous life in a trance.

My grandparents have a lot of fields at home, and they spend most of the year tending the crops in the fields. When the farming season is busy, they harvest, turn the soil and sow seeds, and weed and spray the crops on weekdays to water the crops.

Serving crops is more delicate than serving people.

At that time, science and technology were not very developed, and most of them were done manually. She also picked up wheat ears with a bag in the field.

At that time, I always felt that life was very painful, and it was true. In fact, it didn’t matter if I was tired, but I didn’t tell her that it was hard, and she was always alone. People were afraid that if they were next to her, it would be bad luck.

She didn't blame Ren Ren, but she still felt a pang of pain in her heart when she recalled it now.

Tong Cheng'er's emotions came suddenly, Yinzhen felt it, felt a little inexplicable, and said: "What's the matter, but I think there is something wrong with this place."

Tong Cheng'er came back to her senses, then shook her head: "There's nothing wrong with it, it's pretty good, it's quiet and natural, I like it here very much."

It's all a thing of the past, she didn't think so much before, it's probably because pregnancy is too sensitive, that's why it's so emotional, it's just a little bit more sad.

After hearing this, Yinzhen felt relieved.

The imperial doctor said that pregnant people have big emotional ups and downs, and it is really not easy to think about it.

"If you think there is something wrong, you must say it, don't be bored in your heart."

Tong Cheng'er nodded, and her concern for him was very useful.

"Okay, I won't be bored."

After digesting the food, Tong Cheng'er didn't want to lie down in the afternoon, Zhuangzi followed Tranquility, and Tong Cheng'er wanted to go to the fields to see.

There are many farmers living in the village, and they started farming in the afternoon. Tong Cheng'er was curious and wanted to go and have a look.

So Yinzhen took her to a nearby field.

They were accompanied by the person in charge of Zhuangzi. Although the farmers did not know the real owners of Yinzhen and Tong Cheng'er, they knew the person in charge who came to collect the rent.

They saw that the principal was being polite to the two of them, holding them carefully when speaking, and the farmers knew that the two were unusual identities.

So he behaved very cautiously.

Tong Cheng'er was a little curious: "What do you plan to grow on this land?"

Steward Yang didn't know very well, after all, he didn't expect that Fujin would be interested in what to grow in a piece of farmland. There are many things grown in Zhuangzi, and there are people in charge of it on weekdays, so he doesn't need to know about it.

So when this question was asked, Guanshi Yang who asked was a little confused: "Fu Jin wait a moment, let the servant go over and ask."

Steward Yang hurried over to ask, and then came back and said, "Back to Fujin, this land grows sweet potatoes."

Tong Cheng'er couldn't understand: "Sweet potato?"

Seeing her curious, Yinzhen hurriedly ordered: "Those two sweet potatoes come here."

Steward Yang was taken aback when he heard the words, and then immediately said: "Yes, the slave will go now."

Walking on the road, Steward Yang was still thinking in his heart that the master treated Fujin too much, and gave him what he wanted, which is really worthy of the rumors in the capital.

It seems that Fujin must never be offended.

Steward Yang asked people to take out a few sweet potatoes from the cellar, washed them, wiped off the water with a clean handkerchief, put them on a tray, and brought them to Yinzhen and Tong Cheng'er himself.

Tong Chenger's eyes widened when she saw the sweet potato. Isn't this a sweet potato?
She has never eaten rice made of sweet potatoes, and thought that there are no sweet potatoes now, but she didn't know there was such an ingredient.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt hungry again.

This sweet potato is delicious when eaten boiled or roasted, especially the roasted sweet potato, which is really rare and delicious.

It can even be eaten raw, the more you think about it, the more you want to eat it.

Tong Cheng'er couldn't help swallowing, since it wasn't long after eating.

Seeing this, Yinzhen smiled, and then ordered: "Take the sweet potatoes to the kitchen, and make a few more sweet potato-related things for dinner."

Steward Yang was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said with a troubled expression: "Master, these sweet potatoes are food for poor people."

After all, it was coarse grains, not refined enough, he was afraid of problems, and Fujin was still pregnant!If he vomits, he can't eat and walk around.

So he thought for a while, and said this sentence.

Before Yinzhen said anything, Tong Cheng'er spoke first: "It doesn't matter, we will have sweet potatoes for dinner."

Although Guanshi Yang still felt that something was wrong, his masters had no objections, so he could only agree. He said what should be said, and he would not be blamed at that time.

"Yes, the servant will order the kitchen."

Next, they continued talking, Yinzhen took Tong Cheng'er and walked ahead, Su Peisheng and Yang Guanshi were followed by a nanny after a while.

Yinzhen thought of Xiao Fujin's performance just now, able to swallow a raw sweet potato, and couldn't help asking: "Have you eaten sweet potatoes before?"

Although it was a question, the tone was very certain.

Tong Cheng'er was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, I have eaten."

Tong Cheng'er continued: "Remember what I said, in those days, sweet potatoes were called sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes are a kind of whole grain that nourishes people. In winter, eating a warm roasted sweet potato is the most comforting thing, and the sweet potato can also be used as a side dish, stewing soup..."

Basically everything is delicious.

After hearing so much from her, Yin Zhen showed a smile: "If I knew you liked it so much, I would have sent some blessings."

Sweet potato is a food used by poor people to satisfy their hunger, but Yinzhen didn't know that there are so many ways to eat it.

Tong Cheng'er: "It's not too late now, by the way, I want to see if there is any other delicious food in this field."

Yinzhen naturally said yes.
