My Entire Family's Gone Haywire!

gu shouxin said, " brother ye, as you can see, my house is newly built. i only moved here last laba. " Before that, my eldest daughter did an experiment with these two seeds and they grew. However, the conditions for it to grow are too harsh, so we haven't told Zhou Yuan yet and only plan to plant it in the spring."

"Please continue," the Emperor said.

Gu shouxin said,"do you see this yellow grain?" At that time, we only planted ten in the basin and put them in the pigpen. My family doesn't have pigs, so we put them in the pigpen. He raised the temperature of the pigpen so that firewood could be used all day long. There are two of them, do you know what they look like?"

"what's it like?" the emperor asked curiously.

gu shouxin walked to the corner of the warehouse and took out three dried corn cobs.

"This, this is really grown from two seeds?" the Emperor asked.

gu shouxin nodded with certainty,"yes." One of them only had one, another had two, and the other eight had not sprouted at all. Therefore, winter was not suitable for planting these things. But big brother ye, look, if you take one grain at a time from the top, how many nests can you plant?"

The Emperor was envious. This was a treasure!

Xue Qianyu was calmer than the Emperor. He asked, " "Second uncle Gu, how can you be so sure that this thing is edible?"

Gu shouxin smiled and said, " we've already used a small handful. We ground them with a mill and mixed them with wild vegetables. Then, we fed them to the chicken. we also used a small handful to crush it and ate it with the rice. our family of four was fine too. to be honest, it was very filling, not worse than rice."

The Emperor calmed down after being interrupted by Xue Qianyu. He looked at the sweet potatoes on the ground and asked, " "That can be eaten too?"

Gu shouxin nodded. to be honest, brother ye, my niannian used to love embroidery. Last year, I don't know what happened, but she didn't want to embroider anymore. She said it was a waste of her eyes, so she started to study food. Before the new year, we secretly dug up a few nests of potatoes to eat, and she secretly took Xinxin to burn these red potatoes to eat. It's completely fine, and it can even fill the stomach."

The Emperor asked,"then has she figured out how to grow this thing?" Is it the same as potatoes?"

gu shouxin shook his head. " that's not it. after niannian's experiment, it needs to grow seedlings. i'm not sure, but according to her calculations, the yield per mu will not be lower than that of potatoes. "

The Emperor sucked in a breath of cold air and then narrowed his eyes to size Gu shouxin up. "Brother Gu, why are you telling me such an important thing?"

Gu shouxin smiled and said,"brother ye, can't you see that I'm showing off?" I'm showing off my two daughters! Besides, didn't brother ye say that we hit it off at first sight? I'm telling you this because you have an extraordinary identity. When Zhou Yuan and his granduncle go to the capital to offer crops in the future, you can find a way to plant them for yourself!"

The Emperor looked at Gu shouxin with suspicion.

Gu shouxin put his arm around the emperor's shoulder and said, " "Brother ye, I'm doing this for your own good! i'll also apologize to brother ye, didn't you drink so much that you had to be punched twice by my third sister before you vomited all the wine?"

The Emperor:

I feel like you're mocking me.

You're laughing at my daughter for ignoring me, laughing at me for not being able to outdrink you, laughing at me for being punched twice by your third sister.

"Ahem." Xue Qianyu coughed twice. old master, second uncle Gu, the weather is pretty good outside. Why don't we go around the village? "
