Shen Jintang found some goose feathers, scalded them with hot water, sterilized them and dried them to take care of the little silkworms.

There are two hundred acres of fields in Zhuangzi. Just making the medicinal powder for the two hundred acres of fields is a big project.

What's more, she couldn't count on her family to help with this kind of thing, so she had to work all alone, wishing she could divide the day into two days.

It took more than half a month to finally prepare all the insecticide powder.

Shen Jintang found the tenants, distributed the medicinal powder to them, and told them how to use it.

Those tenants did not expect that the new owner could make this kind of insecticide powder, and they were all very excited.

If they could really kill the bugs on those crops, they would save a lot of effort.

You only need to weed the fields every day and bring them home to feed the pigs.

Now they spend most of their time in the fields catching bugs every day, and they can't catch them all.

The contract signed between the previous owner of this village and the tenants was that the owner received 70% of the grain and the tenants received 30%.

After Shen Jintang took over, he gave these tenants 10% more, which became 60% for her and 40% for the tenants.

The tenants were already extremely grateful to her, but now that she had made insecticide powder, the tenants wanted to worship her as a Bodhisattva.

Now the silkworms in the space have reached their fourth instar and have shed their skin three times.

After it sheds its skin again and reaches the fifth age, it will enter the mature stage after eating mulberry leaves for a few days, spinning silk and forming cocoons.

After these two times of reproduction, the number of these silkworms will already be quite large.

Shen Jintang thought that before winter, he should be able to take out a batch and put it in the village to breed.

But first she had to build a few silkworm rooms in the village.

The temperature in the space is suitable, but outside it is different from the temperature in the space.

These silkworms have requirements for temperature and humidity. If one is not properly raised, a large number of them will become sick and die.

The corn seedlings in the eight acres of field exchanged with Mrs. Shen were also treated with insecticide powder, and they only needed to go to the field to weed occasionally.

Therefore, Shen Mu and Shen Yun relegated their father and son to stay in the room all day long studying.

Shen Yunxuan goes to the town martial arts hall to practice martial arts for half a day every day. In the afternoon, he occasionally goes hunting in the mountains. Sometimes he also reads books and practices calligraphy at home.

Wu Qiuniang also had a restless temper. She took a job embroidering handkerchiefs from the town, and was given ten cents for each embroidered handkerchief.

On this day, when Shen Yunxuan came back from the martial arts gym in the town, he brought back a piece of news.

At first, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu of the Wu Mansion wanted Wu Qiuniang and Shen Muheli to marry Mr. Hu, the landlord in the town. After Wu Qiuniang broke up with the Wu family, Mr. Hu soon married a fourth step-in-law. .

This fourth step-sister is still a little girl who just got her hair.

As a result, not long after marrying him, news came out that she had contracted an illness and died.

Some people say that the fourth step-sibling was tortured to death by him, while others say that Mr. Hu's aunts tortured him to death.

All in all, everything is covered.

If it was Wu Qiuniang who married in the first place, then it was her who was reported to have contracted an illness and died today.

After Shen Jintang and others heard the news, they were silent for a while and then forgot about it.

Shen Jintang has already started to hire people to build a silkworm breeding room in Zhuangzi.

After these silkworms in the space emerge from their cocoons and become butterflies and lay eggs, the silkworm room in the village will almost be built.

At night, Shen Jintang fed the silkworms freshly picked mulberry leaves and opened a can of mulberry wine brewed before.

The wine is purple-red, and a tangy fragrance mixed with the faint aroma of fermented wine rushes into the nose.

Shen Jintang's eyes lit up and he poured some into the bowl he had put into the space before.

These wines have not been filtered, so there are still mulberry impurities in them.

Shen Jintang blew at the impurities floating on the wine and took a cautious sip.

The entrance is sweet and sour, and the aroma of the wine is fragrant. It is much better than the wine in the pubs outside.

She had previously thought of brewing the mulberry wine and selling it for silver, but now that she has no shortage of money, she might as well leave it in the space for her family to drink.

Therefore, Shen Jintang dropped a drop of Golden Lotus Liquid into each of the remaining wine jars.

After thinking about it, I took out a can of mulberry wine that had golden lotus liquid in it from the beginning, and gave it to my parents, eldest and second brother to have a taste.

Shen Mu was tired of reading, so he put down the book and walked out to rest his eyes.

Then I saw Shen Jintang walking over holding a clay pot.

"Dad, come sit in the room." Shen Jintang called him with a smile and said, "I'll give you a taste of the mulberry wine I brewed."

When Shen Mu heard this, he looked at her in surprise and said, "Mulberry wine? Is it the wine made from the fruits on the mulberry trees?"

Shen Jintang nodded and poured him some.

Then he called Wu Qiuniang, Shen Yunxuan and Shen Yunban.

When they learned that the wild fruit could actually make wine, they were also surprised.

Shen Mu smelled the tangy aroma, picked up the bowl and took a sip, then nodded and praised: "Yes, good wine. But, why is there a lotus fragrance in this wine?"

"Maybe it's the smell produced by the fermentation of mulberries." Shen Jintang said vaguely.

Shen Jintang also poured some for himself. After drinking it, he thought to himself that the taste of the mulberry wine with golden lotus liquid and the mulberry wine without golden lotus liquid was too different.

This can of mulberry wine with golden lotus liquid added can be regarded as the best wine.

The wine is slightly cool and enters the throat, slightly sour and slightly sweet.

When it passes through the throat and reaches the stomach, I feel that my whole body is warming up, but it does not make people feel the burning on my face.

"It tastes good, and it doesn't hurt your throat." Shen Yunxuan pursed his lips after finishing the drink and said aftertaste.

Shen Yun's eyes lit up after drinking. He looked at the can of mulberry wine and said to Shen Jintang with a little excitement: "Little sister, this mulberry wine you brewed is really good. After drinking it, my head felt worse." If you are sober, you will definitely remember faster if you take this sip of wine when you endorse."

Shen Jintang couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this.

Her eldest brother is really a bookworm! As long as he has some time, he will run to the room to read and practice calligraphy without delaying for even a moment.

After Wu Qiuniang finished drinking, she also smiled and said: "This wine made by Tang'er is quite suitable for women to drink."

Shen Jintang said with a smile: "Now that there are so many mulberry trees transplanted in the village, we can make the mulberries produced every year into wine and drink it. If we make too much, we can also sell it."

The whole body of the mulberry tree is full of treasures. The mulberry leaves can be fed to silkworms and can also be used as medicine.

Mulberry wood can be used to make furniture, farm tools, and small building materials.

Mulberry bark can be used to make paper, mulberry strips can be used to weave baskets, and mulberries can be used to make wine.
