Chapter 452 Farewell to Fu
Chapter 452 Farewell to Fu
Chen Xin instructed the officers in charge of planting in the army that after harvesting potatoes for a few months, they could cut the potatoes into pieces and leave them to germinate, and then continue planting them, so that more potatoes could be planted repeatedly.
The official's eyes flashed with surprise. He had tasted these potatoes before. The county lady brought them more than a dozen sacks of potatoes.
Chen Xin instructed their chefs to steam, stir-fry and fry the dishes, and the food tasted great.
Stewed with large bones, it has a soft and glutinous texture and a strong sense of fullness.
Cut into thin strips and stir-fry, it has a crispy taste and can also be made into pancakes.
However, he still thinks stewing is better. Not only does it save time and effort, but it also increases the feeling of fullness, which is great.
When the officer heard Chen Xin talk about the yield and planting methods of potatoes, his eyes lit up.
This time the potatoes and grain were sent by the Princess of Huide County, and they were grateful.
It was Princess Huide who discovered such a good thing as potatoes, and they were even more grateful to her.
Zhang Liang, Chen Xin and others walked very fast when they returned, mainly because they were worried about home.
It would be a lie for Zhang Liang to say that he was not anxious. Although the county lord was protected by Bai Tuantuan, Zhang Liang still remembered why he came to the county lord.
When the Second Prince found them, he clearly asked them to prioritize Xiao Wan's safety and to keep her by his side at all times without any mistakes.
Zhang Liang kept these words in mind, and from the Second Prince's attitude, he vaguely felt that the Second Prince had some feelings for the County Lady.
But as a guard, he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
After all, the county lord and General Zhao have long been in love with each other, the second prince and General Zhao are also good brothers, and the county lord is now his master, so he must always follow the county lord's wishes.
The group quickly returned to Kaoshan Village. Chen Xin and Zhang Liang went to the county lord's mansion to report the situation first.
As a result, Manager Qian said that the county lady had returned to Kaoshan Village, so Chen Xin and others rushed back to Kaoshan Village.
Xiao Wan was seeing Fu and Fu Qiushuang off. She had been out for a few days and couldn't stay any longer. It was a favor that the emperor allowed her to leave the capital, and she couldn't cause any more trouble for the emperor.
Fu Qiu Shuang also said goodbye to Xiao Wan with a smile. Xiao Wan packed a lot of things and put them in the car for Fu. Fu held Xiao Wan's hand and was reluctant to let her go.
Although Fu Qiushuang is his own niece, they have not spent much time together and his feelings for her are not very deep. His niece's attitude towards him is not intimate, but respectful with a hint of flattery.
Fu could also understand. She had been very protective of Qiuyue because she was her own niece, and Qiuyue did not feel unfamiliar with her because she was her aunt.
It’s a pity that her elder brother and sister-in-law were so calculating and ungrateful to her, which made her feel cold.
As for his niece Qiu Shuang, he actually hopes to teach her well and find a good husband for her, so that he can repay his half-brother's love for him.
She preferred Xiao Wan, with whom she had only spent a short time.
She always felt that Xiao Wan had a sense of freedom and ease, was very cool and capable. In this era, Fu rarely saw such a vital woman.
The ladies of noble families and the women of seclusion in the capital, including herself, seemed to live their lives wearing masks every day. In the bustling environment, Fu sometimes felt unable to distinguish between the real and the fake.
Xiao Wan and the Xiao family made him feel particularly friendly, and he couldn't help but want to get closer.
She also liked the harmonious and happy atmosphere in the Xiao family.
But she could see that her niece did not like the countryside environment and did not seem to agree with Xiao Wan's decision to go out and start a business.
Fu didn't force it. Fu Qiu Shuang was also a good child. It was just that she and Xiao Wan lived in different environments and had different experiences. Everyone had their own way of living and there was no need to keep pace with others.
Xiao Wan smiled as she bid farewell to Fu. Seeing Fu holding her hand reluctantly, her heart softened. Fu was also alone in the capital and felt very lonely.
She also let Fu hold her hand and said to her with a smile, "Aunt, we may meet again soon."
Fu then remembered that Xiao Wan had quietly mentioned to her that she wanted to open Banchengxian in the capital, but she had not yet set a date, so she had not announced it.
Her complexion suddenly brightened, and she smiled. She took Xiao Wan's hand and said hello repeatedly. Then she said goodbye to Liu and got in the car and left.
Fu Qiu Shuang looked at Fu holding Xiao Wan's hand, her eyes flashed and a smile appeared on her face, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
