Lady Caisang: My husband is a little sweet

Chapter 501 Seed
Day by day, the fifteenth day will soon pass, and Yan Qingpu's marriage has already been put on the agenda, and after the ninth day of the lunar new year, Yan's family is busy with this matter.

In the beginning of spring, others are calculating what to plant this year, and which crops will increase the proportion. If it were in previous years, many people must have come to ask Father Yan for advice, and the house was very lively.

But it is also very lively now. Yan's father is no longer the dull person he was back then. He has many friends, not to mention Yan Qinghe, Yan Qingpu's friends, plus relatives, etc., set more tables than Yan Qinghe got married back then.

Seeing Yan Qingpu's evening ceremony proceeding in an orderly manner, Gu Qingya's eyes couldn't help but feel a little hot. This feeling is a bit like a son who has grown up and married a wife, and has his own small family.

"Li Cheng!" As soon as the emcee's angry voice fell, there was a loud sound of firecrackers outside the house, which was also mixed with the laughter of children.

After the guests were seated, one dish after another was served like water. Even though the harvest has been relatively poor in recent years, the Yan family didn't think about skimping on anything at the banquet, and had everything they should have.

Uncle Lu is in charge of the cooking. Granny Lu is already in poor health, and now she hardly goes out. It is impossible to taste her cooking again.

After seeing off the guests, only some relatives of the Yan family were left to help clean up the aftermath.And Gu Shi was not idle either, taking the eldest daughter-in-law in the kitchen, distributing the leftovers, as well as the red envelopes and return gifts from those who helped, these alone were busy enough, and he didn't have the mind to take care of other things.

Gu Qingya didn't intervene, she took the children to do some things that could be done, and then urged them to get ready to wash up, go back to the house and wait for bed, it was still quite early at night.

On the second day, everyone deliberately got up a little later, just to leave time for the new wife to cook. After all, factors such as getting up late or not being familiar with the kitchen slowed down a lot.

My sister-in-law Xu's cooking skills are relatively average. She looks a little round and white, and her eyes narrow when she smiles, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Gu Qingya glanced at Yan Qingpu, and could easily see that this boy was shy, it seemed that he was very satisfied with his wife.When serving tea, Gu Qingya put on a pair of red coral silk butterfly hairpins that she had prepared long ago.

A few days ago, it was time for the new daughter-in-law to get used to the new home. After returning home, everything in the house would also be familiar.

The plan of the year lies in spring, which is the busy season, so few people arrange happy events after the fifteenth day, because they are too busy.

The field was still plowed by someone, and Yan's father focused on the seeds. He knew that his daughter and son-in-law had researched in this area, so he dragged them along.

In the special circumstances of the past few years, the experience accumulated in the past cannot be used, which is also worrying.

Gu Qingya carefully studied the seeds left by Yan's father, especially the beans, and felt something was wrong, half of them were too big, and if you looked carefully, you would find that the colors and patterns were slightly different, very subtle.

This is relatively obvious, but for things like radish seeds, nothing can be seen.

Jiang Rongan looked it over several times in the palm of his hand, and he saw the difference that Gu Qingya said, "I don't think it will affect much."

Gu Qingya frowned, "I don't think it's quite right. It's very likely that they have mutated. After all, the circumstances of the past few years have been special, and it's very likely that they have changed to adapt."

The adaptability of plants is not weaker than that of humans, and the ability to survive is stronger. "I think we have something to do after the seeds germinate, but before that, let's go up to the mountain to see."

Gu Qingya put the seeds into the dustpan, buried them with plant ash, then clapped her hands and got up, looked at Jiang Rongan and said.

Jiang Rong'an thought for a while, there was really nothing to do these two days, he could go up the mountain with him, but he had to find a few more people. If he went deep into the forest, it would be hard to say what animals he would encounter.

"Don't worry, I'll make arrangements. It's not good to go up the mountain so recklessly." People often go to the nearby hills to mow grass, or herd cattle and sheep, but they can't find anything. They must go further. .

Gu Qingya also thought of this, of course she has no objections, but this time the children can't be allowed to go with them, after all, they are not going for a spring outing.

Qi Qiusheng sent two of the best men from the yamen, Jiang Rong'an and Gu Qingya quietly went up the mountain without alarming anyone.

In the first half an hour, there was still a small path to walk, but at the back, the trees became more and more lush.In the end, Jiang Rongan and Gu Qingya stopped on the outskirts. According to the surrounding environment, there was still some distance from their picnic place ten years ago, which happened to be near the stream.

Although she has not been in the south for many years, it is the place where she grew up after all, and she can tell a thing or two about many plants with her eyes closed.

"Look at this leaf, it's half the size of the biggest one." Gu Qingya plucked a leaf, which they often used to fold into a cone to drink when they went up the mountain.

This kind of plant may grow very lushly, and its branches and leaves will become thicker when it grows taller, but there is often a limit, which is now exceeded.

Jiang Rong'an nodded, and took a closer look, mainly in the bushes and other plants that rarely changed significantly.

There is no need to look further ahead. Based on this alone, we know that most plants have changed more or less. The perennial ones are not obvious, but the seasonal ones are different, especially the crops.

Therefore, there are many reasons for the poor harvest these years, but seeds must be one of the reasons.

Instead of staying on the mountain, the four of them went down the mountain along the same path. The next thing they want to study is the seeds, and pick out the seeds that have adapted and changed, so as to maintain the maximum production. If they still follow the original experience, I'm afraid The results are still not ideal.

Back home, Yan's father just came back from Liu's father. The two of them are still the same as before about the things they want to plant this year. Potatoes and sweet potatoes account for the majority, and the others are correspondingly reduced, especially the corn. .

After talking to Father Yan about their discovery, Father Yan also became more cautious. Of course he knew what it meant. When everyone saves seeds, they usually choose a few better ones, but this is only suitable for those with different varieties. when stable.

"You two come here." Yan's father waved to Gu Qingya and Jiang Rong'an, he brought out several bags from the granary, and took out all the baskets, bamboo plaques, and dustpans at home, "Come and pick them all out." .”

When Gu Shi came back from outside, he saw that the courtyard and the upper and lower halls of the house were occupied by bamboo plaques and baskets. He was very surprised, "Didn't the seeds be kept long ago, and we still have to pick them?"

"Choose some better ones, the ones reserved for seeds are not all in place." Father Yan said without raising his head.

Gu Shi looked at it for a while, feeling dazzled, "You guys do it, I won't be a waste of help."

This is just an idea, and it is necessary to separate out the comparison group. Gu Qingya quickly made two bamboo baskets by the stove, and they will germinate in a few days. Whichever grows better, you will know which one to favor. It is a pity that the number of rice seeds is huge, and there is no time, so we can only sieve them with a sieve.
