C55 Never Show Mercy to Yourself
Tang Xuemei looked at Lin Kaishan with a bright smile and a proud expression. She rolled her eyes at him. At the same time, she caught the main point of Lin Kaishan's words. Her tone was a little sour as she asked, "Are you satisfied with the food?"
"Yes. Not bad. The potatoes that Keer makes are praised by even the nobles and they fight to eat it."
That was indeed the case. Although there was an awkward episode during the potato banquet in Jufu Restaurant, it made the dining table extremely quiet. However, the disappearance of the dish could still be seen with the naked eye. Lin Miaoting's cooking was very successful. Especially when it came to braised pork and potato stew, Lin Miaoting was eaten by Xuanyuan Yu and Xie Wuchen before she could even take a few bites.
Tang Xuemei's gaze shifted to Lin Miaoting who was sitting on the stone bench beside Lin Kaishan and asked with slight doubt, "Keer, is what your father said true?"
"Yes, Mother. Let's wait for Brother to come back and also prepare a potato banquet. But tonight, we'll just make a few potatoes for Mother and let her taste some mashed potatoes." Lin Miaoting's fawning words made Tang Xuemei's mouth reveal a smile and also covered up the doubts in her heart.
"Keer is still the mother who is sensible." Tang Xuemei smiled and stretched out her right index finger. She dotingly tapped Lin Miaoting's nose, "My daughter is indeed powerful."
Lin Miaoting, who received praise from her parents, first smiled embarrassedly. It was not because she was strong. It's the modern technology.
"Dad, Mom ~" Lin Miaoting called softly.
"What is it?" Tang Xuemei asked.
"Not only can this potato be used, but it can also be used as the seed of the potato. Keer had an idea to leave some potatoes to germinate and then cultivate the potatoes. After all, our Hao Xuan Nation does not have it. If we plant it, it will be the only one. Furthermore, I heard that this potato does not require much land."
The more Lin Miaoting spoke, the more excited she became. It was just that Tang Xuemei and Lin Kaishan's expressions were a little gloomy.
"Me and your father think about it."
After saying this, Tang Xuemei and Lin Kaishan fell into deep thought.
The two of them changed the topic and talked about Lin Kaishan and Lin Tiehhong going to find the county magistrate to open up the wasteland.
Lin Miaoting saw that her parents did not have any intention of continuing to talk about the potato seeds, so she could only pick up a few potatoes from the box and walk towards the kitchen of the main house with her arms.
When Lin Miaoting was about to enter the main house, she vaguely heard that Lin Kaishan and Lin Tiehhong were originally going to pick her up. Later on, due to something suddenly happening, Lin Tiehhong left alone and said that he wanted to find someone who knew how to sell land to inquire about the price of the wasteland. Initially, Lin Kaishan wanted to go but was rejected by Lin Tiehhong.
Lin Miaoting was a little annoyed by this. Although Lin Tiehhong was a fair person, he was definitely not a two-handed person. Fortunately, he left in time and did not hear Manager Lin invite him to the potato feast. Otherwise, she did not know what would happen with his performance during the house-moving banquet.
After entering the main house, Lin Miaoting secretly threw the two potatoes into the space.
After cleaning the remaining potatoes, she placed them in the pot filled with water and prepared to boil them for a while. Then, she walked out of the main house and came to Lin Kaishan and Tang Xuemei's side.
She first greeted her parents who had been discussing the matters of the wasteland. She picked up the package of paper, ink, and ink that she had bought in the bookstore and the package of cloth and cotton that she had bought in Linglong Cloth shop. She prepared to take these two packages back to her house and leave them for dinner to be processed.
During dinner, Lin Miaoting simply mixed the potatoes in the house with soy sauce and salt and placed the onion flowers inside. Because she and Lin Kaishan were very full in Jufu Restaurant, they did not eat much. Instead, Tang Xuemei ate very happily and praised this potato for being good. She wouldn't be bored even if she ate every meal.
Lin Miaoting only shook her head at this. If she ate it every day, the first person she would get sick of would be herself!
After cleaning up the dishes, Tang Xuemei asked Lin Miaoting to return to her house and rest early. She said that she would help to go to the small plot of land in the backyard of the house tomorrow.
After returning to the east wing, Lin Miaoting first placed some firewood in the kitchen stove to ensure that the house was warm in the middle of the night before returning to her bedroom.
After entering the house, she stretched and twisted her stiff body for the whole day.
"It's so comfortable!" First, she let out a lazy sigh.
He shook his arms and turned his wrists.
"Let's start working, all the best!"
Lin Miaoting finished talking to herself and went to the bed. She put the string, scissors, ruler and needles on the side of the bed. She was ready to remove the package that she had placed on the brick bed before the meal.
A dozen snow-white papers appeared in front of Lin Miaoting. Although the paper she had bought was cut, it was very large and not practical. One paper was about one square meter.
The person who bought it could only personally cut it according to their wishes.1
In order to make it convenient to use it, Lin Miaoting planned to cut it into the size of modern A4 paper. It was about 30 square meters in 20 or so.
Lin Miaoting first folded the paper horizontally and horizontally twice, forming a crisscrossing web structure. Then she covered the paper about seven square meters and cut it according to the grid, cutting a total of 112 small pieces.
Lin Miaoting compared them and found that the small pieces that were cut were not square. They were slightly close to a rectangle. It seemed that she had been tricked by the shop owner. The whole piece of paper was not a square piece of paper.
'The cutting process of this era needs to be improved. ' Lin Miaoting could not help sighing in her heart and continuing to work.
Lin Miaoting arranged these over a hundred small pieces neatly and faced them. At the same time, the top and bottom were covered with two pieces of sheared leather paper of the same size as the paper. They were also relatively thick. This way, it could ensure that the white and fragile paper inside was not damaged. It would play a certain role of protection!
Everything was ready. Lin Miaoting used a pair of scissors to cut a few holes on the left side of the neatly arranged paper. Then, she used a thick hemp rope to bind it and stabilize it. Finally, she used scissors to carefully fix the edges of the packed book, making it more beautiful.
A white paper book was ready. Lin Miaoting first fondled it a few times and then kissed it by her mouth. Only then did she place the book on the dressing table and prepare to continue making the next one.
Almost a hundred pieces of paper were used by Lin Miaoting and most of them were bound into seven books of different sizes. They were thin and slightly different in thickness. The remaining thirty pieces of paper were intended to be placed in Lin Zhize's room tomorrow. They would be kept for him to practice writing and writing articles.
Lin Miaoting chose two books and wrote the two words "account book." One was written in English, "Sun." She was going to use it as her personal account book. The other book had nothing written except for the two words "account book." She was going to use it later.
She placed the two written accounts aside and selected a slightly thick one from the remaining five books. Lin Miaoting held onto the pen and wrote the two words "Handbook" on it. Similarly, an English word was written on it.
Lin Miaoting happily opened her first handbook account in this era. She looked at the blank paper and paused for a moment.
She picked up the pen and wrote on the first page of the hand account.
'If I want to become a superior person, I will not show mercy to myself. '
- Sun.
