Seeing off Situ Kong and Yang Lingxiao, it was the second day of February when Situ Jiao and Zhou Yaqi got along, and when they returned to the mansion, Situ Jiao gave a post to a few good little sisters, inviting everyone to gather at the Anning Hou Mansion on February 2.

For the program on February 2, Situ Jiao spent a lot of effort.

In February, the second dragon raises its head, this season, in the south is already the earth of spring, it is a good time to go on an outing to enjoy flowers and fly kites.

However, the geographical location of Nanling Kyoto is relatively northern, and although it does not fall as heavily as the north side, there is still a little snow from time to time, so it is far from the point where the earth is rejuvenated.

At this time, don't talk about going out, even if you sit in the house, if you don't have a brazier, it's still a little cold to be wrapped in a cotton fur.

It's naturally not realistic to go out to play, but there are still a few early plum blossoms in the garden of the Anning Hou Mansion, which is also a little interesting.

As for the spring cakes, dumplings and other pasta to be eaten on the second day of February, Situ Jiao had already prepared them.

Since agreeing to Zhou Yaqi's banquet on February 2, Situ Jiao has already sent a message to Taolin Villa, asking Taolin Villa to send all kinds of fresh vegetables to the house on February 2.

Since the earth has not yet rejuvenated, and there are still some snowflakes from time to time, where do those tender and fresh vegetables come from?

Speaking of vegetables, we can't help but talk about the small hot spring in the Mochibayashi Annex.

The hot spring is really small and small, but although it is small, the one-third of an acre of land around the hot spring has become a treasure land, which can grow vegetables for many years. This allows the Marquis of Anning to eat fresh vegetables even in the cold winter.

It's just that the land is not big, and Situ Jiao has set aside some to plant medicinal herbs, so the vegetables produced by the Taolin Courtyard are not only for the Anning Hou Mansion to chew on for himself. It is only during the New Year and the festival to send one or two small baskets to a few close families, so that everyone can try it.

This hot spring was inadvertently discovered by Situ Jiao after she was reborn, but she didn't have it in her previous life, so it can be regarded as a small benefit given to her by God after Situ Jiao's rebirth.

In the past, although some people thought that the small mountain nest looked cloudy and misty in winter, it was not abnormal in summer, after Situ Jiao was reborn. Occasionally, I went to the small mountain nest to look for herbs, and the small medicine hoe went down. hoeed out a warm spring, which made Situ Jiao extremely happy.

At that time, the head of the village in the Taolin Courtyard was Li Guigui, Li's mother's man, and he was a little knowledgeable, and he heard Li's mother mention that a warm spring had been dug out in the small mountain nest. Suddenly I had some thoughts.

Little by little, the small mountain nest was cleaned out, with the spring as the center, and Li Guigui slowly sorted out more than one acre of land, and transported some fertile soil from the outside into the mountain nest, trying to grow all kinds of vegetables.

Unexpectedly, the soil seemed to have been blessed by God, almost planting anything and living and being particularly watery, which not only allowed the Taolin Annexes to eat vegetables that could only be eaten in spring and summer in winter, but also brought new life to the Taolin Courtyard.

Later, Situ Jiao saw what was planted and what was alive on that land, so she tried to grow medicinal herbs. I didn't expect that it was still planting anything, even if the medicinal materials had been cured, as long as they were planted in that soil. Most of them can survive, so the more medicinal herbs are planted, and the area of vegetable cultivation is gradually eaten.

Li Guigui tried to expand the land outward, and the land that extended out was probably far away from the hot springs, and even if he used the hot spring water to irrigate, he still couldn't grow out-of-season vegetables.

In order to make the house even in winter, green and fresh vegetables can be called. Situ Jiao could only endure the pain and cut her love and reduce the area of planting medicinal herbs. In the end, the supply of winter vegetables to the Anning Hou Mansion and several close prefectures was ensured.

Fortunately, there is a hot spring Huangzhuang in Nanling State, where there is a special vegetable planting base, and it will not look at the small piece of land in the peach forest courtyard.

It's just that the Zhuangzi with hot springs is really smaller, except for the Huangzhuang, probably the Taolin Courtyard has such a blessing.

After Situ Jiao returned to the Anning Hou Mansion, Li's mother and her family naturally followed Situ Jiao into the Anning Hou Mansion, and Shen Jian, the new head of the Taolin Courtyard, was a person who had more ideas about farming.

Since receiving the news that Situ Jiao was going to invite the little sisters to come over for a small gathering on February 2, he **** went into the mountain nest to look at the vegetables in the field, and I couldn't wait to blow the vegetables in the soil in one breath.

Of course, even with this hot spring land, the vegetables in the field still have a fixed growth cycle, but there are still a lot of vegetables that can add wild interest to Situ Jiao's feast.

The leeks that have just grown to three inches long must have a different taste when used to wrap spring cakes.

The half-inch-long shepherd's cabbage is fresh and tender, and the fat and thin pork is mixed into a dumpling or bun, and you can bite it down while it is hot, and it must be fragrant.

The chicken hairy cabbage seedlings are rolled in the chicken soup, verdant and tender......

In order to keep the vegetables as fresh as possible, Shen Jian did not send the vegetables to the Anning Hou Mansion in advance, but on the second day of February, Yin Chu took his son into the mountain nest with a lantern to pick them.

Situ Jiao has not been in Beijing for a long time, and there are only a few little sisters who know and get along well, but Situ Jiao has always pursued the principle that good sisters are not many but fine, and she is not willing to cast a wide net like Situ Jin, but in the end she does not have a friend who really makes friends.

Therefore, there are not many people invited by Situ Jiao this time, except for Zhou Yaqi, Han Xiuya, Sun Qian, and several noble daughters of the family who are good friends with these three people, such as the second lady in Mrs. Zhou's mansion, that is, Zhou Yaqi's second cousin Zhou Yajue, Zhang Yifei, the granddaughter of Zhang Shangshu's family in the Ministry of War, and Xuanyuan Ling, the daughter of King Yiyuan Yi.

It was only about ten people, which was a small banquet, so the Han family had no intention of interfering at all, and let Situ Jiao handle it all by himself.

When inviting people, Situ Jiao was a little hesitant whether to invite Sun Qian, after all, Sun Qian and Han Pengcheng's wedding date was in March.

Sun Qian and Han Pengcheng have only been in a hurry for a total of only half a year from discussing marriage, setting up marriage to getting married, so after deciding on the family matter, Sun Qian is basically no longer seen on non-major occasions.

In the end, Han Xiuya handed Situ Jiao a letter, asking Situ Jiao to make sure to give Sun Qian a post and let her come out and loosen up.

When Situ Jiao received Han Xiuya's letter, she was still a little unsure, so she went to Meiyuan to ask Han.

Han said with a smile: "Since it is a letter from your cousin, it must be your aunt's meaning, don't think about it so much, just go and post it to Miss Sun, and it is not up to Miss Sun to decide whether to come or not." ”

Situ Jiao curled the hair hanging down her shoulder with her right finger, and couldn't help laughing, isn't this exactly the reason?!

It's just that what Situ Jiao didn't expect was that Sun Qian brought her an uninvited guest on February 2. (To be continued.) )
