Chapter 362

The cold winter leaves quietly, and the warm spring comes.

In the twinkling of an eye, in February, peach blossoms all over the mountains, pink dotted with green mountains, have a unique aesthetic feeling.

Song Xintong changed into a light shirt and sat in the small pavilion of the Song family's backyard with her two month old baby in her arms. She was very good one day and went to sleep when she was full. Now she just woke up to eat milk and looked around with her watery eyes. She saw everything strangely.

Looking at the peach blossoms all over the mountains, wennuan kept shouting and waving his hands. He didn't know what he was talking about.

Song Xintong twists a peach blossom and puts it in his palm. His warm hand keeps touching it. However, his small arms and hands are too short to touch. He is always angry and discontented. He claims that his mother is too annoying!

Song Xintong smiles and puts the peach blossom where her hand can touch. She grabs the flower and cries.

"Little girls like flowers so much that they don't know how much they love beauty." Song Xintong bowed his head to kiss the little hat on her head, "girl's family, too love beauty can't do."

Wang was cleaning up the charcoal basin, and could not help saying, "it's natural for a girl to love beauty. If she looks so good, she should dress up more."

"Girl, this year's peach blossom is even better than last year's, but it's a pity that we don't make peach blossom wine this year Wang said.

"All the people in the village have come to ask?" Song Xintong asked.

"Yes, but it's a pity to hear that the girls don't make peach blossom wine. They want to earn some money by peach blossom as they did last year." "I heard that some of the family members in the village picked peach blossom and sold it in the county. Some of the family members brewed peach blossom wine themselves," Wang said

"Let them do it. There are peach blossoms all over the mountains and fields in Taohua village. They can do whatever they like." Song Xintong walks to the yard with warm arms. The yard is covered with red peppers, which are about to dry. These peppers were planted in October last year. With the help of firewood heat in winter, the growth trend is not bad. Although the output is not as much as that in summer, there are many.

"The ground has been turned over?" Song Xintong touched almost air dried pepper, "almost able to get seeds."

"The villagers are turning it over. They can plant it in a few days." Wang replied, "the pepper seeds that have been sprinkled in the field have broken through the soil. They are almost a finger long. They can be planted separately in a few days."

"More than a dozen households in the village have signed up for planting pepper. They will come to sign a contract with the girl these two days."

"Only a dozen households?" Song Xintong wrung his eyebrows. "What are they worried about?"

"I'm afraid I can't sell it." Wang said, "Xiaoyue's father has gone to lobby. I think there will be more."

"No, I don't want to plant it." Song Xintong waved his hand and said, "we will distribute the current few acres of pepper seedlings to the villagers who are willing to plant them, and we will plant the rest ourselves."

Wang Shi: "girl, but we don't have so much land. This batch of seeds can grow at least 100 mu of land."

"It's OK. Didn't the suburbs buy hundreds of acres of land? It should be enough to pick up the land without wheat and plant pepper directly. " Song Xintong said, "when the wheat is cut in March, it's the same for us to plant another crop of pepper. It's just a month late. If it's too late, we'll get some."

Wang nodded: "what the girl said is."

At this time, Yang Xiaoyue came in in a hurry, "girl, someone outside said it was looking for a girl."

Wang: "who is it?"

Yang Xiaoyue shakes her head: "I don't know. It's like she's from the county. She's all dressed up, and I don't know which family she's from."

Song Xintong doubts pick eyebrow, come from the county? Song Xintong doesn't remember that she knew the noble son in any county.

"Aunt Wang, go and have a look."

"Well Wang quickly walked out, and soon came in with two people, a young man dressed very upright, followed by a young man.

Wang came in and whispered, "girl, he said he was the new magistrate."

county magistrate? Song Xintong looked at the young man in surprise. He was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He didn't say he was the county magistrate, but she thought he was the noble son of some family.

Song Xintong hands wennuan to Xiaoyue and asks her to take her to the inner room. Then she gets up and dusts the folds on her clothes and goes out to welcome her: "I've seen the county magistrate, but I don't know if he's here. I don't know if the people's wife will welcome her."

"Mrs. Lu is polite." Zhai Junhao, the new county magistrate, bowed his hand.

"Sit down, my Lord." Song Xintong led people to the flower hall to sit down, and let people on the tea: "I don't know what happened when you came here?"

"I'm just walking around, visiting the people." Zhai county magistrate gave a polite smile. "When I came to Taohua village, I saw a lot of workshops and dozens of workers. It was very busy. After inquiring, I knew that the vermicelli that was popular in Dazhou was from Mrs. Lu's workshop. It's really respectable."

Song Xintong hooked her lips and laughed. She didn't believe Zhai county magistrate's words. In Qingjiang County, who doesn't know that her family collects sweet potatoes to make vermicelli? It's just the saying that she doesn't have to go to the three treasures hall to do anything. Zhai county magistrate's busy people don't have time to walk around.

"You are welcome, my Lord." Song Xintong still has a good impression of Zhai county magistrate. Since he took office last year, he has restored the tax revenue to its original state in half a year. He has also dealt with many cases and won high praise.

He should be a good official to do practical things.

Zhai county magistrate sipped the tea and said, "Mrs. Lu, I heard that sweet potatoes are used to make noodles."

"Yes." Song Xintong nodded and did not hide.

Zhai county magistrate said: "it's really amazing. I didn't expect that such full grains could be made into such a smooth thing."

"What does your excellency want to say?" Song Xintong doesn't want to beat around the bush with him. First, it takes time and effort to please. Second, she doesn't think she can beat around these calculating men.

Zhai county magistrate a Zheng, can't help laughing: "Mrs. Lu straightforward, that official also don't Mrs. Lu circle."

The title changed from me to my official. Did you talk to her with the power of the government? Song Xintong frowned slightly, afraid it was not very good to refuse.

Zhai county magistrate said: "I have seen and investigated the land in Qingjiang county. Except for the fertile land near the county seat, the land in other small towns and villages is mostly mountainous. The land is not very fertile. It is not suitable for rice, wheat and other crops, but suitable for sweet potato, buckwheat and other crops."

Song Xintong nodded, Taohua village is such a land, mountainous dry land than paddy field more than half.

"I think that since Mrs. Lu wants to collect sweet potatoes, we might as well expand the scope of acquisition to the whole county?" Zhai county magistrate put forward his own idea.

Song Xintong knew what he meant. When he expanded to the whole county, he didn't just collect hundreds of kilos. He wanted the people of the whole county to grow sweet potato, a high-yield crop, and sell it to her workshop at that time.

The whole county is so big that there are a large number of sweet potatoes planted in the wasteland. Neither her workshop nor Jiang family can eat them.

Song Xintong shook his head, "my Lord, if the quantity is small, it's OK, but if the quantity is large, we can't accept it."

Zhai county magistrate said, "does Mrs. Lu want to expand the workshop?"
