At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

Chapter 215 Sprouts!

In the Gu family courtyard, Gu Damao was carefully studying the book that Lin Qing had just bought.

Lin Yuanxin packed up his sewing basket, took out the clothes that needed mending from his brothers and sisters, and sat under the eaves, threading his needle and getting ready to work.

Gu Sihe was squatting in the open space in the yard, with his butt sticking out, looking at something.

Lin Qing was folding the quilt while thinking, there is nothing that can be used for distillation at home, and rose hydrosol may not be made for the time being, so why not try rose jam and flower cakes?

Tsk, there is no bread oven at home...

While I was thinking, I looked up and saw several children playing or studying happily, and an indescribable feeling of happiness surged in my heart.

When I walked out the door and was about to go to the kitchen to busy myself, I suddenly heard Gu Sihe excitedly shouting:

"Mom, come and see if it has sprouted!"

Lin Qing was extremely happy. He trotted down the stairs and when he looked carefully, he found that the cultivated land was actually covered with a layer of light green.

Very good!

It’s the red amaranth planted by Miki!

It sprouted!

Lin Qing was so excited that she almost jumped up and hurriedly ordered, "Quick, Sihe, go call Grandpa Youzu over and tell him we have something important to discuss with him!"

Seeing Gu Sihe stand up and about to run, he hurriedly grabbed him and reminded him: "Remember, don't tell anyone except Grandpa Youzu. If someone asks you..."

"I said I'd go play with my third brother!"

Gu Sihe didn't even bother to pick up the picture book on the ground and ran out the door.

Lin Qing originally wanted to make rose jam, but she was worried that Song Youzu would come over and she would have to explain the origin of the petals, so she just put them in the storage space.

Just as the two of them finished discussing the matter, Song Youzu trotted in. Without even bothering to greet Lin Qing, he asked breathlessly, "That little monkey Sihe can't explain it clearly. Let me see what's going on!"

Lin Yuanxin hurriedly put down the basket and poured a glass of water for Song Youzu. After the other party took it and drank a few sips, he couldn't wait to ask again. Only then did Lin Qing lead him to see the furry buds in the simple fence stakes.

Song Youzu half squatted down, lay on the ground and looked carefully for a long time, then suddenly burst into tears, opened his mouth and cried silently, kowtowed several times, and began to sob.

"Heaven has mercy on us and has not abandoned Songsi Village! We are saved! We are saved..."

Lin Qing looked at his old face soaked with tears, and her heart ached. She rubbed her swollen and painful eyes, wanting to comfort him but not knowing what to say.

Song Youzu snored and supported himself on the ground with his hands. When he tried to stand up, he almost fell. Gu Sanmu hurriedly supported him: "Grandpa Youzu, be careful!"

Song Youzu said excitedly, "Since your land can grow something, it means our soil is very fertile. It must be no problem to plant something else! Come on, let's go back and try some other seeds..."

After saying that, he didn't even brush the dirt off his knees and rushed out like a gust of wind.

Lin Tingting didn't react until he heard this. It turned out that this old man was planning to grow something else?

Oh, yes, with his own son’s publicity, I’m afraid no one in Songsi Village dares to eat these.

Hiss, she forgot to think about these...

He gestured to Gu Sanmu to hold Song Youzu first and said, "Uncle Youzu, this sprouted thing is called red amaranth. Don't be fooled by its scary appearance, but it's edible..."

Seeing Song Youzu looking at him suspiciously, Lin Qing quickly came up with an idea: "I once heard from Da Song that there are a lot of these vegetables growing outside his tent. Eating them can not only strengthen the body, but also make the face less yellow. These vegetable seeds are what he brought with the letter..."

In fact, Lin Qing had no idea how long this vegetable had been growing in the local area, so the more he talked about it, the more nervous he became. Seeing Song Youzu's brows furrowed like a "川" shape, Lin Qing couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Just as she was thinking about how to remedy the situation, Song Youzu suddenly nodded.

"I heard Da Song joined the army and went to Ganzhou. The plants, food, and customs there are very different from those in Jizhou. Some even say that they eat raw meat and drink blood, and even the meat they eat is stained with blood. With so much meat and so few vegetables, his face must be yellow..."

Song Youzu pondered for a moment and said, "Since Dasong brought the seeds here, he must not be lying."

He wanted to ask Lin Qing why she didn't take out such a good thing as soon as possible, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

Lin Qing seemed to see through his thoughts and smiled, "To be honest, when I opened the letter, I didn't notice what was inside. A lot of it was blown away by the wind, and I don't know where it went."

When Song Youzu heard this, his heart sank.
