“Wild ones… Are there wild winter melons around?”
“There should be. Otherwise, where would our winter melon seeds come from? Weren’t they found in the wild and farmed?
“But it might not be easy to find.
“There’s also wheat. I’ve seen wild wheat before, and we can try crossbreeding them. However, this is a long-term and arduous task, and we must persevere.”
Chen He heard that and immediately found his direction. At the same time, he also understood that this was indeed a difficult task, as it wasn’t easy to find wild crops to crossbreed with.
He felt it was worth it because if they could increase harvest production, how many people’s food problems could be solved?
He nodded and said, “I understand.”
“I hope you can persevere until a fruitful result.” Gu Chengrui nodded.
After chatting for a while longer, Chen He and the others took their leave.
Once the couple washed up, they returned to their bedroom. After entering, they locked the door and entered the interspace.
On the other hand, Shizhu and Xiaxiang could only sleep in one room due to the limited number of rooms.
After lying down, Xiaxiang asked, “Sister Shizhu, has the Mistress always headed into the fields or cooked personally?”
“It depends. For example, she will go to the fields today to help plant the seedlings, as it is the solar term.
“Also, today was a treat. Mrs. Wu’s cooking is fine for our daily meals, but it’s not presentable for an occasion. This is why Mistress had no choice but to cook herself.”
“I see.”
“You’re blessed to be able to enter the Gu residence. Although Mistress is strict, but as long as you don’t make any mistakes, she’s very good to us servants.” Shizhu asked, “Oh right, aren’t you from the south? I don’t hear any obvious accent in your words.”
“It’s mainly because we live in a residence. For convenience, our masters and mistresses usually require us to speak in the proper dialect. Therefore, everyone must learn the official dialect before we can be sold as servants.
“After entering the residence, some servants still could not change their accents and could only do rough work for the rest of their lives.”
“Didn’t Sister Shizhu walk the same path?” Xiaxiang asked.
“No, I’ve been performing on the streets in the north since I was young, so my accent has been like this since I was young.”
“Performing?”
“Yes, juggling and some martial arts. It’s with these martial arts that I obtained Mistress’ appreciation.”
“I see. What does Mistress like to eat the most?”
“Why are you asking this?” Shizhu immediately became vigilant.
There was nothing to hide if it was a hobby that did not matter, and she could openly tell her.
However, some preferences, especially those for imported undies, must not be exposed. Otherwise, it would be easy to bring trouble to Mistress.
Xiaxiang was shocked by her vigilance. “It’s nothing. I just want to learn to cook her favorite dish so I can cook for Mistress in the future.”
Xiaxiang had seen Shizhu being careless over the past few days and did not expect her to be so vigilant regarding Zhou Ying. She was too careless.
Shizhu couldn’t figure out her intentions for a moment, so she could only respond, “That’s true. I should also take the time to learn more about cooking.
“But I don’t know what she prefers other than that she doesn’t like to eat coarse food.
“For example, Mistress doesn’t like to eat noodles made from course and mixed flour.”
The two women tested each other, but neither of them told the truth.
Finally, they fell asleep as they spoke.
After Zhou Ying entered her interspace, she checked the situation on the southern riverbank.
Zi Yan was now in charge of the embankment, and although they were still working day and night, he did not mistreat the laborers. After confirming that the construction was also made with strong and sturdy materials, only then did Zhou Ying withdrew with ease..
