Chapter 53 Seedlings Grow

Unexpectedly, Wang Caiwei did not criticize Wei Ruo and Xie Ying's choice, but asked them to sit down, and then began to give lectures to them.

Wei Ruo originally had no hope for listening to the class, but Wang Caiwei's teaching is not as boring as she imagined. She will tell them vivid allusions and stories behind the text, and will also make appropriate adjustments from the text itself. expand and relate.

Xie Ying, who was originally listless, also seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, staring with two eyes, listening very engrossed.

Especially when listening to Wang Caiwei talk about large-scale wars in history, Wei Ruo felt that Xie Ying was about to jump up and fight with others.

In the morning, the two teach together. In the afternoon, Wang Caiwei arranged for the two to learn a skill each.

Burning incense and tea, flower arranging and hanging paintings are the four most popular arts nowadays, and every lady should learn at least one of them. Wang Caiwei asked Wei Ruo to learn how to make incense and burn incense, and Xie Ying to learn how to hang paintings.

Wang Caiwei's arrangement Xie Ying was not satisfied. Wei Ruo didn't know that she was very satisfied with the course content Wang Caiwei chose for herself.

After a day, Wei Ruo felt pretty good, much more interesting than she expected.

During the period, Mr. Wang also talked about some rules. Compared with Madam Li's rigid explanation, Mr. Wang's explanation is like spring rain moistening things, which is easier to accept.

###

After a few days like this, there was new progress in the south of the city. Wei Ruo had to ask Mr. Wang for leave to deal with the south of the city.

After fifteen days of seedling cultivation, the seedlings in the experimental field in the south of the city have grown green.

During this period, Nanny Zhang would report to Wei Ruo on the situation of the seedlings every other day.

Seeing the vigorous growth of the seedlings, Madam Zhang became more active from her reluctance at the beginning.

At first she was reluctant because she felt that Wei Ruo was messing around, but when she saw the seedlings growing lush and lush, Mammy Zhang suddenly realized that this young lady from the countryside really has two brushes!

"Miss, I reckon that we can start planting rice seedlings in the next two days, but you have to go to see it before you can make a decision."

Nurse Zhang doesn’t dare to make up her own mind now, so she has to ask Wei Ruo for instructions.

"Go and report this situation to your mother." Wei Ruo said.

Although the seedlings are only successful and the rice has not been officially harvested, it is enough to show that the saline-alkali land she improved can already grow rice normally.

Wei Ruo needs to report this result to Wei Mingting, but she can't directly go to Wei Mingting now, so she can only report to Yun first.

Nurse Zhang immediately followed suit and ran to Cangyun Garden to report the good news.

When Nanny Zhang reported to Yun Shi, Wei Qingwan was also in Cangyun Garden, chatting with Yun Shi.

After listening to Zhang Nanny's words, Yun's face was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Really?"

"It's true, the old slave has been staring at it for a month, the seedlings are growing really well! It's lush and lush, the old slave is not exaggerating at all, the seedlings grow better than the ones we planted on the Mantou Mountain in the north of the city! "

"That's great! I'll send someone to notify the master immediately!" Yun said quickly.

Mr. Yun hurriedly called the guard Jing Hu, and explained the matter to him.

Seeing Yun's excited appearance, Wei Qingwan's expression involuntarily changed.

"I didn't expect my sister to really succeed. It's really great." Wei Qingwan said.

"Yes. If it really happens, this matter will be of great help to your father and the entire Captain's Mansion."

Mr. Yun didn't notice her daughter's downcast expression, she was immersed in this excitement.

She then said to Nanny Zhang: "Mommy Zhang, go and call Ruoer over."

Zhang Momo hurriedly said: "Ma'am, besides letting the old slave report the matter to you, the young lady also asked the old slave to ask Madam for instructions. She is going to the south of the city. If the seedlings grow properly, they will be put away for transplanting." .”

"That's right, the timing of planting the seedlings is very important and cannot be delayed, so I won't delay her from doing business."

"Exactly."

"However, let the master see the growth of the seedlings now. If the seedlings are planted, it is not clear whether they were planted from the wasteland in the south of the city or transported from other places."

"Then... Madam, what do you think this matter should be done?"

"You ask Ruo'er to wait until her father replies. If he has time, let him go and have a look. It's best to take Qian Zhixian with him. If you don't have time, let Ruo'er follow the original Let’s make a plan to transplant rice seedlings.”

"Okay, then the old slave will report back to the eldest lady first."

"Well, let's go."

In this matter, Yun respects Wei Ruo's decision very much.

After a while, Nanny Zhang came back again, bringing back Wei Ruo's meaning: "Miss said, she will go to the south of the city first to see the condition of the seedlings. If there is any news from the master, you can let the master directly Go to the south of the city."

"Just do what Ruo'er wants." Yun said.

With Yun's consent, Nanny Zhang went back to follow Wei Ruo's order.

Accompanied by Nanny Zhang, Wei Ruo left the city in a carriage.

Wei Ruo was very satisfied with seeing the excellent seedling fields.

Agui and Xiaoba, who were in charge of the cultivation, also seemed extremely happy.

If the seedlings grow well, it means that there may be a good harvest. This is undoubtedly good news for Xingshan County, which has suffered from successive harvests.

"Miss, what are we going to do now, do we want to raise seedlings?" Agui asked.

"Wait a minute, let's see if my father wants to come here to see it. Now you go to reclaim the wasteland next to it. If this is done, the reclamation of other wastelands will be on the agenda soon." Wei Ruo confessed.

"good!"

Agui and Xiaoba were full of energy and acted immediately.

Wei Ruo went to check nearby again.

After about an hour, Wei Ruo saw a large group of people coming towards him.

In the distance, Wei Ruo saw Wei Mingting who was riding a horse at the front. His armor hadn't taken off yet, so he must have rushed over immediately after receiving the news, and he didn't have time to change clothes.

Immediately afterwards, she saw Qian Zhixian and Chu Lan who came with Wei Mingting.

Qianzhi County will come if Wei Ruo can foresee that the success of wasteland improvement is also a political achievement for Qianzhi County, and he will definitely take it seriously.

But Chu Lan was beyond her expectations. Seeing his figure, Wei Ruo frowned slightly, instinctively resisting too much contact with this person.

Not long after, the large army arrived in front of Wei Ruo and the others.

Wei Ruo came forward to welcome Zhang Nanny, Agui and Xiao Ba.

Wei Ruo leaned slightly and saluted: "I have met my lord father and I have met my lord Qian."

As for Chu Lan, he didn't reveal his identity to the outside world, so it's no wonder Wei Ruo didn't salute him.

"There's no need to be too polite." Wei Mingting's voice couldn't hide his excitement.

When he came over, he saw the lush and vibrant seedling field beside Wei Ruo from a distance.

The verdant green contrasts sharply with the surrounding barren land.

Other people who came with Wei Mingting were also observing Wei Ruo's seedling field at close range.
