Being a princess in a world with more men than women

Chapter 163 Coarse Grain Feast

"Xi'er, are you worried about him?" Tang Liuqing asked softly, his eyes falling on Xu Yuexi's slightly frowned brows.

Xu Yuexi nodded slightly and responded in a low voice: "A little bit."

After all, this is ancient times, and there are no advanced communication equipment and rescue means like those in modern society.

Once you are in trouble, you can only rely on your own wisdom and strength to solve the problem.

For people like Yue Rensong who are in unfamiliar environments, this is undoubtedly a huge challenge.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuexi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Tang Liuqing put his arm around Xu Yuexi's shoulders and comforted her, "Xi'er, don't worry too much. He is a general who has experienced many battles. He has no problem fighting, let alone disaster relief."

Xu Yuexi looked up at Tang Liuqing. His firm yet gentle eyes gradually calmed the uneasiness in her heart.

Xu Yuexi knew that she couldn't indulge in worry, as she still had a lot of things to do.

Xu Fengyu acted decisively and quickly. He followed Xu Yuexi's instructions and arranged all matters properly in a short time: assigning specific people to manage the money, accounts and supervision.

Not only that, he also had someone list the detailed expenses of purchasing disaster relief supplies and post them on the court notice board.

It also explicitly stated that public supervision and review were welcome. If anyone had any questions or doubts about the expenditure of silver and money, they could go to the relevant departments of the Ministry of Revenue for consultation and verification.

At the same time, he also listed the names of the donors and the amount of money donated in detail, and posted them neatly on the public notice board. At the end of the page, he also attached his sincere words of praise for these donors.

By doing this, Xu Fengyu won the hearts of countless people and won praise and support from everyone.

Especially those who donated money generously felt gratified and proud.

Among them, the wealthy businessmen stood out the most, because they not only received the certificates of honor issued by Saint Xu Yuexi, but also received praise from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince; more importantly, this kind of good deed won people's admiration and gratitude, allowing them to receive more orders in their subsequent business, bringing them more profits.

As for Xu Yuexi, in addition to helping to raise money, she also wrote down the recipes for the "fire bed" and the recipes for treating colds in detail and gave them to Xu Fengyu, asking him to arrange them.

After Yue Rensong left, Xu Yuexi began to sort out the seeds she mentioned.

At this time, Xu Yuexi couldn't help but feel secretly grateful.

At that time, she just wanted to do an experiment to see if she could really put her knowledge into practice instead of just talking about it on paper.

Perhaps it was because the seeds provided by the system were so good, Xu Yuexi could get a huge harvest every time she planted. Moreover, she also had a magical system storage space that could perfectly store all the harvested crops.

Whenever potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn and other crops are harvested, Xu Yuexi will put them into the storage space for safekeeping. Year after year, after several years of hard work and accumulation, the amount of food stored in her one acre and three mu of land has been quite astonishing, at least several thousand kilograms!

Looking back on the days when I worked hard in the mountains, it seems now that although it was hard, it was an extremely wise move.

Xu Yuexi took a few from the storage space and went to the imperial kitchen, asking the imperial chefs to prepare them according to her instructions. She wanted to treat her father and brother to a feast of potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn.

At noon, Xu Yuexi asked the servants to bring the prepared food to Xu Yan and Xu Fengyu, and said with a smile: "Dad, big brother, you guys try it."

Xu Yan and Xu Fengyu looked at each other, then picked up a potato shred with chopsticks and put it in their mouths and started chewing.

"Well, it tastes really good." Xu Yan exclaimed.

"Delicious! Sister, these golden beans are delicious too, and taste sweet. And these orange strips are crispy and sweet, I like them so much."

It turns out her brother likes sweets!

"Brother, these small beans are called corn. Those orange-red strips are the French fries I asked someone to make."

It’s just that her fries are made from sweet potatoes, not potatoes.

These foods are high in starch and after being fried and stir-fried, they give people a strong sense of fullness. Xu Yan and Xu Fengyu feel full after eating a little of each.

"Xi'er, where did you get these ingredients? Why have I never seen them before?"
