Chu Ying saw that it was almost dawn, so she hurriedly got up, tiptoed into her clothes, and slowly walked out of the bedroom. "Bring two loaves and don't go hungry."

"Hey." Chu Ying closed the door gently, put on the back basket that had been installed yesterday, took two pancakes, and sped up to take the ox cart.

After waiting in the city for a while, Chu Ying went in when the medicine shop opened, "Grandpa, take a look." ”

Wen Sanqi looked at these pine resins, most of them were whole pieces, and the quality was good, "This is not picked, right?" ”

"It's the pine trees that we cut at home, or the pine resin that is heated underneath to let it flow out."

"That's good. However, it is necessary to cut the adult pine tree, and the underage pine tree will not survive if it is cut. Grandpa Wen asked people to weigh these pine resins, a total of 46 catties, and asked the medicine boy to get the money.

"Yes, I know." Chu Ying put 1 tael and 5 silver coins in the back basket and covered them with linen, and put the other 1 tael and 10 coins in his coat pocket.

"You don't have to worry about these pine trees, but you still have to watch it, after all, it's not like you used to cut some pine trees, you can't cut them now, you can't cut them, and the harvest is not large."

"Okay, thank you grandpa for the reminder." Chu Ying went to the market with a basket on her back to take a look, Ye Qiu said that she wanted to buy soy sauce, and she didn't know how much it would cost, but now that she has an income, she still has a better life, after all, she is growing her body.

After buying two large clay pots and a liter of soy sauce, Chu Ying stopped by Qin Zhong to inquire about the cultivation of aquatic plants.

"I'm right, the pharmacy will definitely accept it." Qin Zhong wrapped the lotus seeds bought by the guests in paper, tied them with fine hemp rope, and left a loop on them that could be carried by hand.

"Thank you, I want to plant some lotus roots, seeds, and water chestnuts, but I don't know how to get them." Chu Ying put down the basket and looked at the seeds in Qin Zhong's shop.

"You can go to the lake and dig some lotus roots and plant them, or wait for August and September to harvest black and hard lotus seeds to plant. However, it is necessary to grind off some skin, or it will not germinate. The same is true for the seeds of the gourd and the water chestnut, just harvest the seeds in the autumn and scatter them in the pool, and they will grow on their own. ”

"Well, I thought I would have to buy seeds like wheat. What about Ulva How do you plant it? ”

"It's good to go to the lake to pick the lettuce, and if you want to plant it, you can take the strong, old and old stem segments with fibrous roots in the water before and after Qingming and put an inch into the mud."

"Okay, there's a pond at home, and I'm thinking about what to plant. I'll go back and see, thanks. On the way back, Chu Ying thought that water chestnuts and gourds should also be sown like lotus seeds, but they are all seasonal fruits, and now I am afraid that I can't buy seeds, so I can only buy water chestnut powder.

Waiting for Chu Ying to go back and see Ye Qiu nervous about a rabbit lying on a wooden pier, "What's wrong?" Dead? Let's eat it. ”

"Maybe the dew on the leaves didn't dry up, and three of them died, huh...... It's all my fault. Chu Ying moved the wooden pier to a place where the rabbit nest was out of sight, gave the three rabbits fruit, gave the washed rabbits to Ye Qiu, and the three rabbit furs were also stretched out and hung on the wall.

"It's okay, just make bacon, or it's okay with the fish bream.

"But the preserved meat is done in the first month of the lunar month, and now I am afraid that it will not be long before I do it, and the fish can be done now, but there is no need to do it and save it if there is a pond."

"Then eat it, eat two for yourself, and I'll send the other one to Aunt Wang, there is not much meat, so let's eat it."

"Alright, let's be a rabbit." Chu Ying took the grass and skewered the rabbit and led it to Aunt Wang's house.

"Caught a rabbit again?"

"Yes, if you catch a lot, you will raise it, and if you eat it, a few will die, so I will use it to honor you." Aunt Wang smiled and brought the rabbit into the kitchen.

"This rabbit is not easy to raise, when it is hot, there are a lot of heat strokes, before the pear orchard likes to raise a few, and then either diarrhea, or heat to death, and finally into the mouth." Rabbits are indeed a bit difficult to raise, but this wild one is not so delicate, but you still need to be careful.

"Well, we have to build a house for them, or it's not good to die of heat in the summer. Then I'll go first. "This rabbit loves to gnaw wood and grind its teeth, and the smell is a little heavy, and the smell is not good when the weather is hot, if you want to build a house to ventilate and remove the smell is the key, the rabbit that I raised before was also not given the air conditioner in the summer to get heat stroke.

"What is this?" Chu Ying saw that there was still rice in the rabbit broth made by Ye Qiu.

"Rabbit Skin, there is no wine, and magnolia skin, if only there could be bean drums and bitter wine, you can taste it." Chu Ying took a sip and tasted slightly sour, not very difficult to eat, but this method had never been seen before, this ancient delicacy was a little unique, but it was very appetizing.

"Okay." Chu Ying served the rice and ate around the stove, in ancient times, he didn't expect spicy rabbit meat, braised rabbit meat, this chili Chu Ying had never seen it when he went to the market, and there was no white sugar if he wanted to braised it, the sugar here was darker in color, and it didn't seem to be used for dishes.

"You said before that the water that rabbits drink should be boiled, and the grass should not have dew, I remember all this, what else should I pay attention to? The two big rabbits looked like they were about to give birth, and they were a little irritable. ”

"Anyway, the dirty grass can't be fed to the rabbits, and the washed grass must be dried before it can be fed. When the time comes, I will make some rabbit cages to separate the female rabbits, and it is best not to be with the male rabbits when the female rabbits are born, and it is not good for them to give birth to baby rabbits. ”

"Yes, and you can't always stay outside when it's hot." It is not easy to raise anything, Chu Ying looked at the pond after dinner, took a slightly larger wooden basin and put on clogs, and prepared to go to the lake to dig lotus roots and pick lettuce stalks.

"Where are you going? Fishing? You can't play in the water......"

"Got it, Mama Ye." Chu Ying took advantage of Ye Qiu's anger to chase him out and quickly ran away.

When I went to the lake, I saw one or two people sitting on a wooden basin picking lettuce. Chu Ying put the wooden basin on the edge of the lake first, and then slowly went down, although it was a little unbalanced, but sitting in the wooden basin, she could master it, but she was still a little timid, and she didn't want those girls to be handy, watching those girls pick the lettuce in the lake like a fish in water.

Chu Ying only picked a small point, others had already finished picking and went ashore to go home, Chu Ying sighed, she could only continue to reach under the water to pick the stem of the lettuce, and when there was almost a wooden pot, Chu Ying slowly rowed to the shore and put the stalk of the Ulva on the ground first, and then came back to continue picking.

When it was almost done, Chu Ying slowly stood up on the shore, but the center of gravity was unstable, she ate a mouthful of mud at once, touched the front teeth that were still there, and looked at half of her body in the water, she was a little stunned for a while, but it was all dirty, Chu Ying moved to the small lotus leaf next to her, groped the lotus root below with her feet, and when she stepped on it, she wanted to lift the lotus root with her feet.

But the lotus root knots are not so easy to dig, Chu Ying can only bend down slowly, and reach the lotus root knot with his hands, and when the lotus root knot is dug out, half of his face is already dirty, Chu Ying slowly goes to a higher place, but he will still stain his face, and then Chu Ying can't take care of this.

After digging for a while, the silt in the water has been raised, Chu Ying moved the dug lotus root to the shore, looked almost the same, and couldn't take it himself, so he climbed ashore, looking at the clothes full of silt, Chu Ying only felt funny, and went back to be told by Mama Ye again.

Ye Qiu sat in the courtyard, leaning against the wall, slowly embroidering the embroidery, looking at a mud child walking in the distance, and said with a snicker: "These children in the village are too wild, or Chu Ying is good, if Chu Ying goes home like this, she will definitely be beaten out, hey......"

After a while, the clay figure walked in front of Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu raised his head and waved his hand, "The family is poor and has nothing to eat, you can find another family." ”

"Poof......" Chu Ying blew off the mud on the side of her mouth, took off her pants and clothes, it was still a little cold this day, this wet clothes took away too much heat from her body, if she wasn't afraid of the jokes of people on the side of the road, she would have taken off her clothes a long time ago.

Even if he wrung out some of them before, his clothes were still wet, Chu Ying dropped a bucket of water and came up to wipe his face clean, and glanced at Ye Qiu, who was stunned.

"My ancestor, are you falling into the mud? Hey, put it on, I'm going to boil water. Chu Ying looked at Ye Qiu, who ran to boil water, covered her mouth and laughed softly.
