Chapter 607: Congratulatory Gift
Lin Yi took a few bites and said, "Qingju, next time I prepare a meal, you don't need to prepare so much, if I am alone, just prepare a meat, a vegetarian and a soup." ”
"Yes!"
Qingju agreed softly, thinking in her heart, although the general's wife was born as a peasant girl, she was born with a beautiful appearance and approachability, and now watching her eat, it is so simple, at first glance, she is not a person who climbs a high branch and is arrogant.
Originally, I thought that the general was very aggrieved to marry a small peasant girl, but now when I see this lady, I only feel that it is different from what I imagined in my heart.
After Lin Yi finished breakfast, he was about to go out.
Qing Ju hurriedly followed and said respectfully, "Madame, are you going out?" Do I need a horse-drawn carriage? ”
Lin Yi nodded and said, "Go and prepare, I'll go out later." “
Qingju agreed, and then said: "Yesterday, Mrs. and the general got married, and the adults and squires of Ninghe County sent some congratulatory gifts. ”
Lin Yi asked, "Where are those congratulatory gifts?" ”
Lu Cui hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Those congratulatory gifts are placed in the back yard, this is a gift list, and I invite Mrs. to look at it." ”
As she spoke, Lu Cui took out a gift slip and presented it to Lin Yi with both hands.
Lin Yi took it, but didn't look at it, but said to Lucui: "Come with me to the backyard to have a look." ”
Lin Yi and Lucui came to the backyard together, and saw that there were some gift boxes piled up large and small, and Lin Yi opened them one by one according to the congratulatory gift list.
When Lin Yi opened the gift box, the expression on his face was faint, and when he opened the congratulatory gifts of Zhang Youxuan and Zihuai, Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
In Zhang Youxuan's gift box, in addition to a few fine silk brocade silks, there is also a small bag, which contains some small pale yellow seeds and some black seeds.
Lin Yi recognized these two things, it was chili pepper and pepper, after Lin Yi came to this era, she found that there were no peppercorns and chili peppers here, and the vegetable market and grocery stores were not sold, she wanted to open a hot pot restaurant before, because there were no these two seasonings, so what she wanted was to open a hot pot restaurant with clear soup, just like a modern soup pot.
Later, when she came to Gyeongnamseong, she met the French merchant and bought some spices from him, and she had another idea at that time.
Now, seeing the pepper seeds and pepper seeds given by Zhang Youxuan, she was very happy in her heart, and a bright smile appeared on her face.
And what Zi Huai gave her was also very pleasantly surprised, it was three large bags of seeds, one was yellow-orange-orange rice, one was a small black rape seed, and the other was a black black sesame seed.
Rice is grown in the generation of Ninghe County, for example, a small amount of rice was planted in the fields of Lin Yi's family before, but these rice grains are all rice.
And the bag of rice seeds given by Zi Huai, on the cloth bag on it, actually had the word "upland rice" written on it.
As we all know, rice needs water, and here in Ninghe County, there are not many paddy fields, so rice cannot be planted on a large scale, and those dry fields and lands are generally planted with sorghum and wheat.
Now that she has these upland rice seeds, Lin Yi can try to plant them on those upland fields and land.
Lin Yi liked the congratulatory gifts given by the two very much, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.
Lu Cui stood aside, looking at his wife's very happy appearance, a little confused, and asked: "Madam, the congratulatory gifts given by the county lord and others are quite valuable, why doesn't Madame like those gold and silver jewelry, screen cloth, but likes these things, forgive the slave and the maid, I really can't see where these things are good?" “
