Chapter 738
These two people are not bragging or talking nonsense, but are talking about the skills they have learned about planting and cultivating corn.In the past, everyone used to plant corn in close quarters, and they were reluctant to thin out the seedlings after emergence. When harvesting in autumn, the sticks of corn are small, and the rice grains on the sticks are also thin.Everyone thought this was a normal phenomenon, and didn't think much about it at all, thinking that dense planting would increase the yield.

After explanations and corrections by the peasants of the Hou Mansion, they realized that corn cannot be planted closely.There must be a certain distance between the seeds, and the number of seeds under the point should not be more than two to three.After emergence, the seedlings have to be thinned and settled.It is best to hoe the grass twice after that.When the seedling grows to the waist height of an adult, it is necessary to apply fertilizer twice and plow once.The advantage of this plow is that it can not only bury the applied fertilizer in the soil, but also help the corn seedlings to fully absorb nutrients, and also play a role in loosening the soil to prevent the soil from clumping.Again, the water has to keep up.If there is enough rain, it will save you the trouble of watering.In times of drought, it is necessary to water in time to obtain high yields.

Not to mention the high-spirited talk of everyone here, when Qingyang, Buwu and his party returned, the lunch in the mansion was ready.The butler Gu was standing in front of the Hou's mansion, waiting for people to come in as soon as they arrived.

Qing Shu prepared a table of sumptuous delicacies, two of which were cooked by herself.

After being full of wine and food, Bu Wu left a cartful of gifts, a wooden box and a letter brought by Bu Yuyan, and did not even take a break, so he took his leave and returned to Jinyang City.

Qingshu first read Bu Yuyan's letter.From the letter, I know that Bu Yuyan is honestly having a baby under the supervision of her elders, and everything is fine at home.She couldn't help but smile knowingly.At the end of the letter, Yuyan mentioned that the wooden box was given by Master Yun, so she should not worry about it, just accept it, there is a surprise inside.

Qing Shu hooked the corners of her lips, took the key left by Bu Wu, and opened the small lock on the wooden box.Opening the lid of the wooden box, I saw that there was a mahogany box with extremely exquisite carvings inside, and a half piece of paper lay on the top of the box.The words "There is a big surprise inside" are written on the paper.This is obviously Yu Yan's handwriting.

She put the paper aside, took out the beautiful box, put it on the table and opened it, revealing a letter inside.She held the letter in one hand, and uncovered the smooth silk with the other, only to see a box full of golden jewellery.She raised her eyebrows in surprise, quickly tore open the sealed envelope, and took the letter inside to read.

This is Princess Yun's personal letter.Princess Yun said in the letter that she missed Qingshu very much and asked when Qingshu would come to Beijing.It took her a long time to choose the jewelry in the box.I wanted to send it years ago, but one of the twelve pieces was missing at that time, so the delivery was late, I hope Qingshu will not blame it.Besides, her marriage has been decided, it was bestowed by the Holy One, and she got married on the seventh day of September this year.Her county horse is Bu Wu.She invited Qingshu to Beijing for a wedding.

Qing Shu closed the letter and smiled.Since Yuyan said it was a big surprise, then this big surprise must refer to the marriage between Princess Yun and Brother Bu Wu.It seems that Brother Bu Wu himself is willing, otherwise Yu Yan would not be so happy.Brother Bu Wu just left without saying a word. It's a pity that she couldn't say congratulations in person today!She guessed that Princess Yun also liked Bu Wuge, to be exact, she had a crush on him for five or six years.A man and a woman who are in love with each other are the happiest couple!Lovers get married in the end, I wish them love and love each other and grow old together!
At ten o'clock in the evening, Mr. Lu, who was traveling with prefect Chen and other officials, returned to the town.Chen Zhifu and other officials have their own warm reception from the local government, and there is an official post house for the evening rest, so there is no need for the Houfu to worry about it.Furthermore, the Hou Mansion can't worry about this matter, let alone intervene in arranging the affairs of the officials.Because if one is not done well, it is easy to cause trouble.

It is their duty for lower-level officials to entertain their superiors with hospitality.You are an empty air with the Hou's mansion, and there is no Hou's mansion in charge of grabbing the credit and performance opportunities that others deserve. Isn't that attracting hatred and attracting hatred?Furthermore, most of the officials are very airy and have many problems, and each official has different preferences, there are many things to pay attention to, and it is so easy to serve!Only those who are officials can deal with those who are officials, and know the truth inside.

Qing Shu is not stupid either, naturally she would not do something to offend the local government, let alone go ahead and recruit herself for something that would not necessarily please her even if it took a lot of effort.What's more, tomorrow the Hou's mansion will have to put up 12 points of energy to deal with the matter of Chen Zhifu's officials inspecting spring plowing with all their strength!
Therefore, after Mr. Lu returned home, Qing Shu consulted Mr. Lu about some things that need to be paid attention to tomorrow, as well as some small details that he was not sure about.Afterwards, she took out four pages of paper that she had spent the afternoon drawing up and writing about the reception process and various precautions during the reception, and added the information she learned from Mr. Lu to the fifth page of blank paper. information.

Qing Shu put down the brush, made sure nothing was missing, dried the ink, and then held the five pages respectfully in front of Mr. Lu, asking Mr. Lu to read them over.

Mr. Lu took five pages of paper, read it carefully, and nodded, "Yes, I noticed many details." After finishing speaking, he put the paper full of words on the table in front of Qingshu, "Everyone who will be here tomorrow will be Hui Officials at all levels in the state capital. You are a woman, so you are not suitable to show your face. You can just stay in the mansion and sit in the government. In front of them, the gentleman has a little face, and tomorrow, the gentleman will lead four students to accompany him. "

Qing Shu had no objection, readily agreed, and thanked Mr. Lu in advance, and also volunteered, saying that he would personally organize a banquet to thank Mr. Lu afterwards.

Mr. Lu couldn't be more satisfied when he heard the words. While stroking his beard, he praised Qingshu for being sensible and not forgetting to order food.Because he accompanied Chen Zhifu to dinner at the posthouse, and the journey was tiring, he didn't stay any longer, and went directly back to the residence to wash and resettle.

Qingshu gathered Steward Gu, Steward Wu, Steward Zhang, Steward Ding, as well as Mother Su, the chief steward of the backyard, and Lan Yuan, the steward's wife, to discuss tomorrow's affairs.She once again confirmed the scope of duties and responsibilities of each steward, and reiterated many important precautions, and finally warned everyone that if anyone made the slightest mistake, he would be severely punished.

The people did not disperse after they exited Qingshu's study, but were summoned by the butler Gu to continue the discussion elsewhere.

As the future pillars of the ancient mansion, Qingyang and Qinghao were naturally present when Qingshu recruited people to discuss matters.It's just that the two of them have been listening carefully from beginning to end without speaking.Seeing that the housekeeper and stewards had retreated now, Qingyang hurried over to pour a glass of warm water for Qingshu, "Sister, drink some water to moisten your throat."

Qing Hao was also unambiguous, and handed the apple to Qing Shu from where he got it.

Qing Shu narrowed his eyes with a smile, the tired look on his face was swept away, he held a water glass in one hand and an apple in the other.

Qingyang looked sideways at Qinghao, "Have you washed the apples?"

Qing Hao smiled, two dimples appeared on his face, "It was washed."

"It's great to have two younger brothers who love others!" Qing Shu sighed, took a sip of water, put the water glass on the table, and then brought the apple to his mouth. With a soft "click", he took a bite of the fruit and ate it happily stand up.
