Chapter 917: Silkworms

"Sister-in-law, look, look, this seed has sprouted, hey, so fast, hee, hee, the bud has fallen, hey, it turned out to be a small insect, sister-in-law, this kind of seed bud was eaten by insects."

Uh, I was eaten by bugs.

"Princess, this is not a worm, uh, it is also called a worm, but it's a silkworm seed, no, there is a small silkworm, you look at these silkworm seeds, and the silkworms have also come out, princess, what about us, this is a test silkworm, it is for silkworm craftsmen to conduct experiments and improve silkworm seeds, so it is put in the greenhouse to stocking, so that there are several more opportunities to conduct experiments a year, come, princess, let's feed silkworms together."

As she spoke, the daughter-in-law took out fresh mulberry leaves from the basket on one side and gave a few to the baby cow.

"Sister-in-law, this is the food for feeding silkworm babies, how can it be leaves?"

The baby cow was holding the leaves, a little surprised, and a little dazed, well, haven't you seen it?

"Princess, these are silkworms, naturally, they are also insects, insects, they are going to eat leaves, and this silkworm likes to eat this mulberry leaf the most, now, the silkworm has just been born, so they want to eat tender mulberry leaves, these, is the most tender mulberry leaves, you see, green, how beautiful, this feed silkworms, feed like this, because this silkworm, just born, in order to grow fast, so, this mulberry leaves, to be torn apart, they will eat more smoothly, watch my sister-in-law do it."

As she spoke, the daughter-in-law tore open the first leaf, so some of the maids on the side also tore up the leaves in their hands and began to feed the silkworms, and the baby cow also tore them and fed the silkworms.

"Hee-hee, it's so fun, look at this silkworm baby, eat so fast, don't rob, don't rob, all eat, some eat, hee-hee!"

The baby cow was interested, and soon, it was no longer called a bug, but a silkworm baby.

Well, what, why, ploughing the fields in the morning and feeding the silkworms in the afternoon, this, it's a coincidence, I received the news yesterday that the silkworms are about to come out, and it happened to be in the afternoon, otherwise, the daughter-in-law would not have come over, and it was just a ceremony.

Silkworms are placed in dense bamboo plates, because they are small, they are denser, otherwise, they will not leak down, and then, because of growth, and change places.

At this time, the silkworm is placed in a small isolated room in a large glass greenhouse, which is also sealed with glass, and outside, it is planted with some saplings of mulberry trees, and in the middle, the pruned dwarf, well, it is an artificial dwarf, that is, pruned, not a real dwarf tree, just to bear mulberries.

However, there is a small house in this greenhouse, and silkworms are placed in the small house, for what, naturally for the test, what is the test, well, I don't know which lady's suggestion, whether to test a new variety, so that the silk is thinner, more tough, these, are to be slowly tested, whether it is successful or not, it doesn't matter, the big deal is the cognition of silkworms, there will be more observation and recording, this is not, on the side, there are a few women, or called craftsmen, are recording, while observing, while recording, even, Occasionally, a few leaves are torn up, fed slowly, and then observed, and then recorded.

"Princess, madam, you better go back, the air here is not good, well, it was Lang Jun who said, it is not easy to stay for a long time, even us, there is also a specified time to go out and go around, and then come back to continue working, this working time is limited."

Soon, a female craftswoman came to persuade her daughter-in-law and the baby cow to let them go.

"Yes, princess, since it is not good for your health, then, let's leave quickly!"

The female officer listened to the anxious on the side.

"Hehe, haven't they gone out yet, I'll go with them later."

This baby cow can pick words.

Well, the daughter-in-law is also the idea.

"Wait a minute, go out with you when you are resting, you have always been able to work in it, and I can stay in it, this year, has this room been improved, the silkworm mountain, can it be erected, it will not be the same as in previous years, it is a little too crowded."

Silkworm Mountain, what to play, well, this is the use of silkworm raising, when the silkworm eats to the point that it can't be eaten, when it wants to form a cocoon, it will make one for them or build a silkworm mountain with some sticks, and then, this silkworm, will climb up, start to form a cocoon on it, and then, it will form a white silkworm mountain, oh, or called cocoon mountain, cocoon mountain, will be full of cocoons, well, wait for this cocoon, after the real complete success, people can easily pick it from the cocoon mountain, and then enter the next program, the so-called next program, That is, if it is time to draw the silk, the cocoon will be steamed and boiled, and the silkworm chrysalis inside will die, and then the silk can be drawn.

And the seed is left, is to let the silkworm chrysalis into butterflies, and after the silkworm chrysalis turns into butterflies, it will be through a special way, let these butterflies come on the special silkworm seed paper, leaving the silkworm seeds, that is, the baby cow looked at the silkworm seeds that came out of the silkworm before.

This is a reincarnation of the four changes of silkworms.

On the one hand, the daughter-in-law is like a teacher, tearing the mulberry leaves, while explaining the knowledge of the silkworm to the baby cow, well, what about the daughter-in-law, under the influence of Yang Qiao, or the seven ladies, are all under the influence of Yang Qiao, almost all of them are knowledge baskets, can you really understand I don't know, but when it comes to telling the story, it is the head of the way.

"Princess, ma'am, we can go out, not too long."

Again, the craftsman began to let his daughter-in-law go out with the princess again.

"Alright, let's go, princess, let's go too!"

"Let's go, hey, this is the Lun family's gloves, don't leave it."

Well, daughter-in-law, when I went out, I left the gloves on my hands aside, in fact, this glove should also be going to do something else, next time, people will not wear this old glove, and the baby cow's is brought by himself.

"Princess, bring it back, it's useless, this glove is said to be disposable."

The female officer in the back followed.

"Hee-hee, this is proof of the work of this palace, well, what did my brother-in-law say, what kind of collection is this, what is the ......"

Some of the things that Yang Qiao laughed with Niu Bao actually made Niu Bao remember Yang Qiao's original words.

This is the glove of the princess of the cow baby silkworm, when the time comes, what about me, will write on it, Zhenguan fourteen years, the princess of the cow baby, in the Yang family greenhouse silkworm souvenir, well, my word plus the princess's gimmick, in the future, this glove, will be able to sell at a very high price, is the price used to collect, the baby cow is so small, you know the silkworm, well, there are also gloves for the ploughing, you see, I have already written it for you.

"Princess Niu Baobao, in Yang Qiao personally controlled the horses to wipe the gloves, Zhenguan fourteenth spring, the first ploughing commemoration."

However, it is estimated that this is a joke-like thing, whether it is the value of the words, or the memorability of the baby cow, it can't stand the collection, and it will soon be damaged.

"Sister-in-law, what are those people doing over there?"

When I came out of the house, I saw some green trees that I didn't notice when I came in, and at this time, there were a few women, or rather, also called craftsmen, were picking mulberry leaves, I didn't see them in front, they went out to rest and breathe, and now, after the ventilation was completed, they came in again and started to work, once they started to raise silkworms, this beginning, it was quite simple, but it would be more and more busy, and when the silkworms arrived at the time when they ate more, they even needed to transfer people from elsewhere to help pick mulberry leaves. Instead of directly putting the silkworm on the tree to eat, in this way, it can protect the tree and ensure the quality of the cocoon.

"Princess, this is picking mulberry leaves, the mulberry leaves we fed the silkworms just now, princess, let's go, don't look at it, it's too late."

Earlier, there were craftsmen anxiously persuading the baby cow, well, Yang Qiao said, they were all very nervous, so they were very observant of the time, saying that it was as long as it was to go out, how long to come in, how long to come in, how long to come in, no matter how anxious it was, they couldn't work overtime inside, they could only work in shifts.

Actually, whether it's good or not, don't say it first, but the subtle discipline is strictly observed.
