Chapter 476： Nanban Victory

The latest website: I also received dozens of catties of sweet potato and potato seeds. There are only a small handful of corn seeds, but they are enough for planting. We can continue to plant seeds in the coming year.

The Ministry of Household and Sinong Temple were afraid that they would be too busy after the new year, so they distributed the seeds to officials in advance along with the annual ceremony.

Start with several prefectures and prefectures near Kyoto.

The distribution needs to be completed before the spring ploughing, and the yamen who distribute it should specifically explain that it does not need to be planted on fertile fields, the seeds do not require much land, and the wasteland can be planted well.

The court was afraid that some poor people would not be willing to cultivate and eat the new crops, so the original plan was to be distributed free of charge and rented instead.

After the harvest, it must be handed back according to the amount issued, and then the imperial court will transport it to other provinces, prefectures and counties for promotion.

After all, the number is limited, and it needs to be promoted in each province, prefecture, and county, and it must be implemented first.

In addition, the harvest of new seeds in the first three years of planting does not need to pay taxes, which is more popular with the people.

The seeds that Pei Xiu brought back were stored separately, and they were handed over to Uncle Cheng after the beginning of spring, and asked him to plant them on Zhuangzi.

Pei Xiu also gave away the New Year's gifts from all parties, and received many gifts from others. After registering them in the warehouse one by one, she can also spend the New Year leisurely.

When Zhou Yong came back from work that day, he asked his mother if he had brought back his New Year's gift.

Pei Xiu said amusingly: "I got it, there are only a few things that you should be so concerned about. As soon as you come back, you will come and ask."

"Hey, of course, this is the first annual gift your eldest son earned."

She smiled and shook her head, "To eat your food today, I have instructed the kitchen to use your rice noodles to make steamed buns, and the meat is also braised."

"Okay, okay, let's put the meal, I'm hungry." Zhou Yong smirked.

Looking at the food served by the servants, he felt that today's food seemed to be extraordinarily sweet. After eating three bowls of rice and a big meat bun, he had to grab it again.

Pei Xiu patted his hand to stop him from eating, and then he stopped the chopsticks.

"You'll be going back to sleep in a while, don't eat too much."

"All right."

He sat bored and drank tea, waiting for the second and third to finish eating, so that they could go back together.

"Eat quickly."

"You have to chew and swallow slowly when you eat, what are you urging?" The third child was still eating slowly.

"I've eaten three bowls, and you haven't finished the second bowl yet."

The second child also said, "Brother, either you go back first, you don't have to wait for us."

"Then I won't wait for you, I'll go back and soak my feet first."

"I'll go back to my mother first." He got up and left after saying that.

Pei Xiu nodded.

It was dark early in the winter, and every time they came out after eating, it was already dark.

There were no other activities, so after eating, they went back to their houses to pack their blankets.

She put the wheat on the bed, let her play for a while before going to sleep, went to the desk to look at the calendar list, and crossed out today's date.

There are only a few days left, and this year is over.

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and Zhou Cheng has not celebrated the Chinese New Year at home for two years.

No news came back for months, and I don't know what happened to the war.

She just adjusted her mind and planned to comfort the children during the Chinese New Year, but she thought that there was good news on New Year's Eve this year.

Two days before New Year's Eve, the ministers of the DPRK and China began to take vacations, except for some important ministers who may still be working.

However, Zhou Yong was still working as usual on New Year's Eve. It was really hard work, and the annual ceremony was really worthless.

Fewer people came in and out of the city on this day, everyone was preparing a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner at home, or chatting with their neighbors.

Zhou Yong stood bored at the gate of the city, smelling all kinds of fragrances in the air, feeling a little hard!

In the morning, he came out with a full meal, and before noon, he was smitten by the smell of croquettes from every household.

Liu Dazhong also shrugged and pulled him to chat boredly, "Brother Zhou, what are you preparing for your New Year's Eve dinner?"

"I don't know, my mother didn't tell me, I only know that there are beef, beef bones, fish, and dumplings, and I don't know anything else."

"Everyone will prepare fish and dumplings. Do you still like to eat beef bones?"

"Yeah, when I went out this morning and passed by the kitchen, I already smelled the aroma of beef bones in sauce. When I simmered on a low fire until the evening, I won't mention how fragrant it is~ That bone marrow, just **** it into my mouth, it's smooth and tender. ~"

While talking, he swallowed. He hadn't eaten for a few days, so he missed it.

Said Liu Dazhong also swallowed, "Is the beef bone in sauce so delicious?"

"Um, of course, or will it make me think about it?"

"Yes, Brother Zhou has eaten good food. Next time in my village, if there is a cow that kills the old and falls to its death, I will buy some and let my mother-in-law cook one."

"It has to be stewed for several hours, until the white brittle bones are soft before they can be chewed. The brittle bones are also delicious."

As soon as the two talked about eating, they didn't stop, the more they talked, the higher they went.

Suddenly, a fast horse came from far and near outside the city, and everyone else noticed it, but these two were the only ones who were focused on discussing eating and eating.

They were not surprised until they approached the city gate, and the sound of horse hooves was not slow but fast. When they looked up, the soldiers held the book high in their hands, and they began to shout loudly when they approached the city gate.

"Nanban good news! The Grand Lieutenant wins!"

…

Zhou Yong's eyes widened in surprise, and he jumped three feet in excitement as he watched the soldiers reporting the news rush past him.

Hearing the lingering voice still in his ears, he was convinced that he had no hallucinations.

After the soldiers entered the city, they repeatedly shouted to the gate of the palace, and the people on the street took the initiative to avoid them, and excitedly discussed the victory of Nanman.

More than four months have passed, and finally another news came, which is good news.

Everyone looked at Zhou Yong in surprise, not knowing why he was so excited.

"Hahaha, I'm happy because after the victory, my father is coming back!"

"Brother Zhou's father is also on the expedition?"

"Yes, UU Reading Yes, you said that if I leave for a while, go home to report the good news, and come back again?" He couldn't wait to run back and tell his mother the good news.

Liu Dazhong scratched his head, and said uncertainly, "It should be possible, right? You are not editing, you came to stand on your own initiative. It's not like we need to work hard to keep our jobs."

Zhou Yong paced back and forth in circles, hesitating, he promised to stand for half a month, would it be bad to leave without permission?

Looking up at the sky, there was no sun, and he didn't know what time it was.

"I'll go to the tea house over there and ask what time it is. If it's near noon, I'll wait, otherwise it will take time to run all the way back."

"Then go quickly."

Zhou Yong ran back and forth quickly, "It's almost noon, I'll be here waiting for Qingsong to come."

He was happy and looking forward to it, and he didn't know if his father had already set off and returned?
