Qiao Xuan had a substantial amount of cassava powder, weighing 5KG, along with sun-dried cassavas. Yuezheng Xiao was impressed by the quantity and nned to send his men to fetch the remaining cassavas.
In addition to the cassavas, Qiao Xuan also presented taro balls and bubbles to the family. Although they had enjoyed these treats extensively at home, it was Yuezheng Xiao’s first time trying them. Qiao Xuan even suggested sending some to First Madame and Madame Yuezheng.
Thebination of taro balls, bubbles, sugar water, and a portion of milk created a delightful and chewy dessert, which would surely be a favorite among the general poption.
Yuezheng Xiao was delighted with the discovery. Not only did it provide a source of ie, but it also offered him a delicious food option.
Furthermore, the family was intrigued by the exotic fruits from the south. Dragon fruits and pineapples, sourced from Qiao Xuan’s home, piqued their interest. Madame Yuezheng particrly enjoyed bananas and dragon fruits, while the rest of the family appreciated all the fruits on offer.
Yuezheng Xiao was amazed by Qiao Xuan and her familys ability to sessfully grow fruits. Without any hesitation, he promptly assigned a few people to search for dragon fruit, papaya, sugarcane, banana, and pineapple seedlings, as per Qiao Xuan’s request.
Dragon fruits and papayas were particrly favorable as they could be nted and grown at any time. If these fruits flourished, it would expand the variety of desserts avable. They might even be able to reduce their dependence on selling southern fruits by half.
The future looked promising.
On the day Madame Qiao and her family arrived in the province, Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan, Ms. Fang, and Yang Xiaoni spent the entire day shopping. While Ms. Fang was not one to splurge, Shao Sang and Yang Xiaoni couldn’t resist indulging themselves when they came across a wide array of delicious foods.
Ms. Fang felt a pang of concern seeing the expenses, but she reasoned that since they wouldn’t visit the province often and the couple was using their own money, she didn’t intervene to stop them from splurging.
Both Ms. Fang and Eldest Uncle were in awe of the bustling city, and spending an extra day there left them thoroughly satisfied with the experience.
The excitement continued once they returned to their amodation.
For the next two days, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan nned to explore the province with their family and celebrate the Double Ninth Day with the Yuezheng Family. Afterward, Shao Yunduan had some literary gatherings lined up where he would visit esteemed masters alongside Xie Jingrong.
Shao Yunduan hadn’t had the opportunity to engage in practical discussions with his fellow peers since bing the Provincial Champion.
Meanwhile, Qiao Xuan decided to inspect thend she had recently purchased.
With the autumn harvestpleted, there was an abundance of avableborers. Qiao Xuan made the decision to hire them to begin sorting out the 1,000 mu ofnd.
Although they would have to wait until spring to cultivate bananas, sugarcane, and pineapples, they could start nting papayas, dragon fruits, tangerines, and pomelos right away.
In addition to these new crops, Qiao Xuan also transferred some lemon and fig trees from the vige garden.
While the winter temperatures in the region wouldn’t drop below 5 degrees Celsius, except for the mountain peaks, there was still a possibility of frost, although snowfall was typically minimal.
Before there happened one huge frost storm, and the fruits and crops were all damaged when that happened.
But this case wasn’t frequent.
So Qiao Xuan decided to see if those fruits could still grow well after winter here, with her superpower as the protecting means..
