Chapter 444: Boredom
“I’ve been at home all day, and I’m not allowed to do anything, nor am I allowed to practice martial arts. I’m really depressed!”
Zhao Youcai complained with his face. But there was a thick smile on his face.
In the past few months while he was recuperating at home, he was idle all day long and had to be fed crazily by brothers Lu and Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu every day. Zhao Youcai seemed to have gained weight.
When he smiled at this time, his eyes were squeezed into slits, which looked quite funny.
Lu, on the other hand, gave Zhao Youcai a roll of his eyes, ignored him at all, and continued to talk to Xia Mingyue.
Let’s talk about Xia Ji’s situation in Jinqiu County when Xia Mingyue went to Changzhou Fucheng.
Xia Ji's business model is very mature, and it remains the same every day. There are occasional small problems during the period, but they can all be solved by Lu, Zhou and others, and it is generally very stable.
“If I have to say something else, now that the Xia Kee stall is full, people are still coming to ask about joining. It takes a lot of words to decline.”
After all, it is possible. It is common to make money, and it is a stable and profitable business, and it is common to be sought after by others.
This situation also shows that Xia Ji's business is extremely successful.
Sweet burden!
The two talked for half an hour before they were free to do other things.
The first step is to settle down Yinqiao and Qingju’s residence.
The west wing room was originally the room of Zhuang Cui and Jiang Zhuguo. Now that Jiang Zhuguo lives in Changzhou Fucheng, the kang in the room is freed up.
The Tukang was spacious and flat, and the weather was getting colder, so it was nice and warm for two people to sleep together.
The key to getting along with Yinqiao and Qingju was very good when they were in Changzhou Fucheng, and they have no objection to this now.
The next step is to arrange the things brought back from Changzhou Fucheng.
Xia Mingyue originally bought a lot of things, in order to give some to those close to her when she came back, and it was considered a "business trip" for her.
I never thought that the things Guanshi Fu gave her were three times as much as what she bought, so that when all the things were moved into the house, they were piled all over the floor, without even a place to set foot.
In desperation, Xia Mingyue had to sleep with these items all night. Early the next morning, she packed up these items one by one and sent them to various places in turn.
The Lu family, Yin Lingyou, Shopkeeper Ge, Aunt Han...
Seeing that there were some fine inks and papers inside, Xia Mingyue even thought about sending them to Zhou Shanchang and Pei The county magistrate ordered some.
After the piles of items in the house were taken out one after another, and he finally felt refreshed, Guo Kanglai came to the door.
Some fresh fruits and vegetables were delivered, as well as the title deed of the newly purchased farm and the deed of the farm's clerk.
"The farm was finally bought for one thousand and fifty taels, and the other party was very generous and kept a few more clerks."
Guo Kanglai showed the roster to Xia Mingyue, introducing each clerk and his family in detail. The specific situation of the tenants.
Xia Mingyue saw that Guo Kanglai knew everything very well and knew that he must personally do everything and work tirelessly. She couldn't help but nod her head, "Thank you for your hard work, Manager Guo."
"It's all It should be." Guo Kanglai's attitude was still modest, "The winter wheat has been planted in the farm, and the garlic has sprouted in the vegetable field. I plan to plant more wheat. Scatter some spinach and coriander on the ground. There are also green vegetables to eat in winter. If they grow well, you can also sell some to get some money..."
The earth is silent in winter, except for some greenhouses that can grow In addition to some rare vegetables, most of them are radishes, cabbage, potatoes and other items stored in the cellar. Such fresh and tender winter spinach and coriander will definitely be popular with everyone.
Guo Kanglai was both thoughtful and dedicated in these matters. Xia Mingyue nodded slightly while listening, sometimes expressing affirmation and appreciation, and sometimes interrupting Guo Kanglai's statement to put forward some opinions of her own.
The master and servant discussed it for a long time, and both of them gained a lot. Seeing that it was getting late, Guo Kanglai returned happily, while Xia Mingyue happily packed up the things Guo Kanglai had sent.
The vegetables are freshly harvested cabbage, white radish, carrot, fresh mustard greens, and the fruits are pear and persimmon.
The cabbage and two kinds of radishes are carefully stored and eaten slowly. The mustard lumps are peeled and shredded. They are pickled into shredded mustard as usual as last year and serve as a rice cooker.
Yali or canned fruit are both suitable.
There are a lot of persimmons, and the varieties are of high quality. The deep orange persimmons do not have any astringent taste, but are crisp, sweet and delicious, with a refreshing fragrance.
Divide the persimmons into two piles, one for direct consumption, and the other for peeling. Tie the persimmon stems one by one with hemp rope and hang them in a ventilated place to prepare to be dried into persimmon cakes. ...
Xia Mingyue is busy, and Zhuang Cui is not idle either.
After returning to Jinqiu County, Yin Lingyou formally taught her medical skills.
Distinguish medicinal materials, record their properties and uses, learn how to prepare medicinal materials, try to diagnose pulse, write down prescriptions...
In just a few days, Zhuang Cui realized one word - days are like years.
At the same time, I learned another word - life is worse than death.
How come there are so many complicated and hard-to-remember names of medicinal materials in this world, and why are the dried medicinal materials so different from fresh medicinal materials? They are obviously the same medicinal material, but why are they prepared in different ways? , the efficacy of the medicine will be very different and the uses will be different?
There is also the matter of pulse diagnosis. No matter how she feels it, she feels that the pulse is beating "quickly". There is no difference at all, okay?
She is obviously a rough person, and her hobbies are swordplay, boxing, and kung fu. Why does she have to sit down quietly and learn these things now?
The words "life without love" are vividly reflected on Zhuang Cui's face.
If you don’t understand or learn, you will inevitably appear clumsy and get into trouble.
Taking the wrong medicinal materials, looking at the wrong time...
Mistakes happen one after another, and each one can exceed people's imagination.
This made Zhuang Cui more and more annoyed, and therefore a little ashamed, and even doubted himself.
Seeing this, Mao Sanli opened his mouth to comfort, "Junior sister, don't take it to heart. Things like getting into trouble are normal things and don't matter. And if you keep getting into trouble, you will get used to it. Master is used to it, so he won’t say anything!”
Zhuang Cui, “…”
It’s okay not to give this comfort!
Zhuang Cui's boredom has not diminished at all, while Cui Wendong's boredom in Changzhou City has also increased.
The bait Honglian had been out for a long time, but there was still no movement, which made him a little uneasy.
What made him even more uneasy was that he heard that Cui Wenshuo seemed to have arrived in Changzhou Fucheng.
The Cui family knew about his coming to Changzhou Fucheng, but Cui Wenshuo came to Changzhou Fucheng quietly at this time without meeting him...
It was because he knew about He The old lady is here, so do you want to get there first and seize the opportunity?
Ahhhhh, school finally starts tomorrow, the mythical beast returns to school, and I can finally code in peace!
