The 1012th round

The second elder has a good sense of smell, and there is indeed a black licorice planted on the Dead Wood Ridge, which is not a fantasy.

There are not many, they are not concentrated, they are scattered in the mountains and forests, and she sees them every time she walks and goes for a morning run, and she collects them casually. After looking at it for a long time, the four kings learned from her, and when they saw the grown black licorice, they bit it off.

Either drag it home or throw it on the spot.

Like spreading seeds, licorice can now be found everywhere in Deadwood Ridge. Due to human and dog gnawing factors, the number of planted is not a concern.

Similar to wheat flowers, it is now the season when the black licorice in Deadwood Ridge is blooming, no wonder the second elder can smell it.

Sensei said that outsiders who have never set foot in this place, even Luo Qingyu, who lives here, can faintly smell the fresh smell of this licorice flower through the strong fragrance of spring flowers.

"This is my home, it's been more than 20 years, and it has hardly changed......"

There is no need to visit the fruit trees in the mountains, Luo Qingyu and his godmother took the second elder into the courtyard of the Luo family.

As soon as he entered the door, his grandmother smelled a clear medicinal fragrance.

"It used to be all black licorice, in the front yard and in the back yard, everywhere. Luo Qingyu introduced to the second elder, "I have been planting for almost 20 years, and now, I grow medicine in the front yard and vegetables in the back yard." ”

"Why don't you plant vegetables in the front yard and medicine in the back yard?" Seeing the signs on the edge of the medicine garden, indicating which ones are poisonous and which are not, the grandmother looked curiously with a cane, "There are guests coming and going in the front yard, and it is easy to bump into them." ”

"People living in the backyard smell poisonous medicine every day, which is not good for the body. The master stood still with his cane in his hand, looked around, and said in a deep voice, "Usually the master's house is active in the front yard, and if someone is poisoned, you can see it at a glance." ”

After that, I couldn't help but stretch out my thin hand and touch the edge of the medicine garden, thinking about its predecessor in my mind. Ah Nian came here when he was a child, and used his camera to take pictures of the first scene of this courtyard for them to enjoy.

That large piece of wheat swaying in the wind, now when I think of it, I am full of emotion.

"The master is right," haha, why is it planted in the front yard, Luo Qingyu has long forgotten it, and the master's words let her push the boat down the river, "I rarely go to the backyard, except for picking vegetables." Planting the medicine in the front yard for easy visibility because my studio is here......"

As he spoke, he took the second elder to the spacious medicine room for a visit.

"Yo, there's a jade curtain here, too?" said the grandmother as she stretched out her hand and pulled it, puzzled, "Why don't you make it longer? ”

"I'm afraid that Lin Lin will drag them to eat," Ye Qiao said with a smile, "I'll talk about it when those three naughty spirits grow up." ”

That's right, the grandmother nodded and entered the medicine room. Accompanied by Luo Qingyu, the master was opening a grid drawer and looking.

"Are all these herbs made by you?" the master picked up a piece of cinnamon and sniffed it, and took a look.

"yes, most of it was my mom who did it, and I only did a little when I needed to. Luo Qingyu told the truth, and didn't dare to grab the credit.

My mother likes to make medicinal food, and she has cooperative relations with several large pharmacies to provide high-quality medicinal materials.

Therefore, the medicinal herbs at home have never been cut off.

And Luo Qingyu rarely concocts and stores medicinal materials, basically, what she takes out and stores is finished products, such as all kinds of pills. It was served in a small porcelain vase and placed in these chests of drawers, and any elder came to get it if he needed it.

There was no need to ask her, she saw that there was no stock, and the medicinal herbs in the mountains had grown again, so she could replenish the supply.

The pills she made with her own hands are not to mention priceless, and people outside can't buy them even if they have money.

The elders in the family also know that the medicine she makes has been ordered by an anonymous customer for a long time. The medicinal herbs in the mountains are seasonal and grow regularly, not just if you want to have them. It can be described as precious, and the elders will not take it easily.

So right now, there are a number of small porcelain bottles in many drawers, with a note on the body of the bottle indicating what kind of medicine it is.

The second elder took the small porcelain bottle and sniffed it gently, then put it back in place without breaking the cork. Some medicines can't be left for too long if they leak the medicine, for fear that the effect will be greatly reduced.

When people get old, their temperament changes, but they still have this awareness and quality.

After reading the pharmacy, the second elder also went up to the attic for a walk.

Seeing the various utensils that Ah Nian had sent to Miss Luo in those years, the grandmother felt funny, and pulled Ye Qiao's arm and whispered:

"Fortunately, you helped him recognize a righteous sister, otherwise, with his incomprehensible character, I am afraid that he will not be able to marry a wife for the rest of his life. ”

Now the young are not as young as before, and they attach great importance to the hearts of their suitors. For example, when you send a message, you must reply in seconds, otherwise it is not true love, and you must give gifts on holidays, and the gift does not have to be expensive, but it must be what she likes.

Like Ah Nian, who only gave him a valuable boy, he was thrown to Java by the girls long ago.

Ye Qiao chuckled and said in the same low voice:

"He's not stupid, this righteous sister is his own recognition. ”

It doesn't matter if you have a bad personality, the important thing is to have self-knowledge and brains. No, when he was a few years old, he couldn't wait to book himself a little daughter-in-law.

"Godmother, I heard everything," Luo Qingyu, who was accompanying the grandfather to visit in front, turned around and said speechlessly, "He's not stupid, that's me stupid." ”

In the same room, thought she wouldn't hear behind her back?

"Hahaha, not stupid, not stupid, not stupid......" The three elders laughed, and the grandmother did not forget to tease her, "Even if you are stupid, stupid people have stupid blessings, good things, good things......

It's all a joke, Luo Qingyu can't be angry because of this. took the second elder from the front yard to the backyard and told them that the plum tree in the courtyard was planted by Brother Nian, and he understood the customs.

Husband and wife, wash his name.

Otherwise, she who married him would be a big fool who has never seen the world in the eyes of her relatives.

came to the backyard, participated in the small vegetable garden, and at the same time saw the green seedlings that had grown on the ground she had opened.

"What is this?" said Grandma and Grandma with interest.

"Yes, what is this?" Ye Qiao was also very curious, "I didn't have it last time." ”

"The newly planted five-color rice, black rice, rouge rice, green rice and pink japonica, the seeds I got back from a friend's house. Luo Qingyu explained half-truthfully, "My land has been nourished for the longest time, and I want to try how the five-color rice grows tastes." ”

Oh, I see, the three elders suddenly realized.

The grandfather and grandmother nodded silently, well, this great-granddaughter-in-law is really diligent. She does whatever comes to mind, no wonder she can come up with so many recipes.

Now, many of the younger generations in the family are lazy. It's hard to kick to move, it's really unsightly.

"It's a pity, this rouge rice," the grandfather and his great-granddaughter-in-law talked about what they knew, "it's not real rouge rice, at most it's called red rice." In ancient times, rouge rice was a special rice for the royal family and nobles to enjoy......"

Moreover, according to the records, the cochineal rice has become extinct.

Luo Qingyu listened to it and laughed dryly:

"It doesn't matter, there is a change of dynasties, there is the renewal of all things, and every era has its own rare products. I'm experimenting with them now, and after a few improvements, maybe one day I can grow them to their original taste. ”

Since the rouge rice has been cut off, it means that no one knows what the real rouge rice tastes like.

This is the real rouge rice, and it has been improved by the cheap master. Now, she has replanted it on the land of the world, and it should be possible to restore the quality before it was broken, right?

Wow, who knows.

She eats as much as she wants, but she can't manage so much.
