When Cheng Yuyan eats, she doesn't like to have too many people around, especially when Mama Xia is waiting on the side. Bai Zhi naturally knew the habit of this eldest lady of her own family, so she didn't need Cheng Yuyan to signal to Mama Xia, so she lowered her head and slowly retreated to the door to the ear room.

Seeing that there were no outsiders in the house, Mama Xia lowered her voice and whispered: "Sister, the little girl just came to report, there was crying and making trouble over there last night, and I tossed for a long time." Today, the old man spoke and asked the second lady to come out. ”

Mama Xia pointed in the direction of the west, which was the Zuifeng Garden where Cheng Yuyao, the second lady of the Cheng family, lived.

"Really?" Cheng Yuyan smiled faintly, it was expected that the fuss would be released, and it would be even more strange if it would be released in advance. If you don't make a fuss, it's going to be fatal. Speaking of which, this is the first time that her sister-in-law has grown up and suffered such a big loss, and even the third aunt, who has always been invincible, is the first time she has suffered from deflated.

It's a pity that the third aunt deserves to be the third aunt. Taking advantage of his father's absence, he designed to kill one of the two aunts and injure one, and in the end, he was only punished for thinking about it in his own Yilan Garden for half a month. And her good sister-in-law, under the tearful offensive of the third aunt and herself, was only punished for copying "Women's Rules" ten times.

Such a punishment has nothing to do with pain and itching, and it does not hurt the spleen and stomach. To say that Cheng Yuyan is not disappointed, it is impossible. But Cheng Yuyan knows that freezing three feet is not a day's cold. If you want to shake the status of the mother and daughter in the hearts of your father, you must first endure your temperament and take your time like water dripping through a stone. Fortunately, it's still early, as long as there are more pieces of meat in the third aunt's stomach, and a little pimple can be left in Daddy's heart, this matter is half the success.

Instead, it's my mother's side...... Maybe it's time for the mother and daughter to talk honestly and unfairly.

Since Li Junran decided to pretend to be dumb as planned, she has been lying in bed for several days. In the past few days, Li Junran has not been idle, in addition to obediently drinking porridge and taking medicine every day, as long as Bai Zhi is not in the house for the rest of the time, she will sneak into the space.

As for Xiao Qiliu's small body that is not yet eight years old, plus he has been sturdy for twenty boards before, even after systematic restoration, it is obviously impossible to engage in heavy work such as cultivating fields and cultivating the land in the past two years. Therefore, Li Junran deleted the selection for a long time, and first excluded grain and vegetable crops.

In Li Junran's view, she will have to stay in Cheng's house as a maid for a long time in the future, although the salary is not high, there is no freedom, and personal safety cannot be guaranteed, but it is good to eat and live, and there are two changes of work clothes every season, every New Year's festival or something, if you catch up with the top boss is happy, there is also a reward.

Therefore, the issue of eating can be put aside for the time being. However, in the future, if the silver taels are a little more relaxed, this rice or something will have to be planted. Not for the sake of the ancestors, just for the sake of the ancestor passed down the sentence "don't panic when you have food in your hand", you have to save some food in the warehouse, just in case.

Besides, if you have rice and sorghum in your hands, you can still make sake when you go back. As long as there is enough silver taels to buy fully automatic brewing equipment from the system stores, it should not be a big problem to make good wine. The price of the finished wine is significantly higher than that of the coarse grains. And those distiller's grains can also be processed into feed for fattening pigs.

Of course, these are still just big cakes on the wall, and they belong to one of Li Junran's beautiful plans. As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Junran still chooses to plant some that can produce economic benefits in the short term.

For example, bamboo.

There are bamboo shoots for sale in the system shops, and no one knows what kind of bamboo can be harvested after the bamboo shoots are planted. If you are lucky, your character will explode, and it is not impossible to grow jade bamboo (fiction). Like what Xiangfei bamboo (a kind of spotted bamboo), qin silk bamboo, phoenix tail bamboo, Buddha belly bamboo are relatively precious varieties, especially dragon scale bamboo is very rare.

The reason why Li Junran deliberately opened up a small piece of land to plant bamboo, even if it only produces the most common moso bamboo in the end, is good. First, bamboo is easy to plant, and if you plant it once, you don't need to plant it again for a few years. The most important thing is that there are a lot of by-products in this small bamboo forest. Bamboo shoots, bamboo whips, bamboo leaves, and bamboo poles are a must, in addition to the "Snow Skirt Fairy" reputation of the grass Bazhen Bamboo Sun, and the taste of the earth treasure bamboo slip comparable to the heavenly turtledove. If you're lucky, you might even be able to harvest bamboo rice.

To say that this bamboo slip, that is, the bamboo rat, feeds on the underground stems, roots, and shoots of bamboo, and the body is large and meaty, and the taste is very delicious. Before Li Junran crossed in modern times, he was a foodie. In his spare time, in addition to snuggling up at home and reading novels, he carries a huge travel bag and searches for food all over the country. With such a delicious delicacy as bamboo slipping, Li Junran naturally couldn't miss it. It's just that there are too many gluttonies now, and the wild bamboo slips are almost more precious than the giant pandas. So much so that the bamboo slip that Li Junran only tasted for the second time was also artificially bred. Even so, the taste still made foodie Li Junran forget it for a long time.

As for the bamboo rice, it is even more rare. As the old saying goes: the phoenix does not inhabit unless it is a sycamore, and it does not eat if it is not a bamboo. Bamboo here refers to bamboo rice. Bamboo rice, in fact, is the seed of bamboo, and it is the most traditional way for bamboo to continue to future generations. Bamboo rarely blooms, and when it does, it means that the bamboo will be exhausted and the bamboo forest will die in pieces.

Under the stimulation of bamboo and bamboo slips, Li Junran's feelings were very high, and it only took half a day to open up a large area of about 100 square meters for planting bamboo shoots. As for the remaining 200 square meters, all kinds of fruit trees are planted. What peaches, apples, bananas, lychees, longan, coconut, cherries, loquats...... As long as the system shop has it, Li Junran is not polite. From berries, citrus, pits, nuts, melons and nuts, I did not hesitate to choose my favorite varieties, and I chose three plants of each.

Even if the saplings in the system store are not expensive, Li Junran bought them so selectively, and the system gave Li Junran an alarm about energy shortage. It's no wonder that Li Junran is so impulsive, in addition to the pot of dumb medicine and the teapot, three and a half halves of silver were recovered before, and those peach wood dead branches and walnut dead branches were also sold at a good price. As soon as this pocket is loosened, the shopping instinct of a girl is activated.

If it weren't for the system's alarm, Li Junran would have forgotten that her pockets were not rich. Looking at the saplings neatly placed outside the cabin, and then rummaging through the shriveled pockets, Li Junran regretted it.

Retreat, naturally, impossible. As far as the system's door picking attribute is concerned, the recovery price is less than 30% of the original price, and you can't get much money back at all.

species, it's really difficult. Not to mention, just digging those big pits will cost Li Junran's half life. Not to mention planting those little saplings.

But if you don't plant it, it's even more impossible. Looking at the climate change on the estate, it was already autumn. I believe it won't be long before the cold wind and heavy snow will fall. It's no wonder that those saplings are placed outside the cabin and don't freeze to death.

"Ah~~~" Li Junran couldn't help shouting again.

The bald mouse floating in mid-air tilted his little head suspiciously, really not understanding what was wrong with his little master.

Li Junran glanced up at the little mouse floating in mid-air, and had a brilliant idea, the mouse is the best at making holes, if you let it help dig the hole, it should be much faster.

Because of the heart-to-heart connection, the bald little mouse soon sensed Li Junran's idea of asking it to help make a hole. The bald little mouse with a fleshy body turned red, and said glutinously to the two front paws: "Master, I'm not a mouse." ”

"......" Li Junran raised her eyebrows, obviously not believing the bald mouse's words.

After that, the bald little mouse spent a lot of words to explain to Li Junran why it became like this now, to put it bluntly, it was nothing more than because of the lack of space energy supply now. When the bald little mouse introduced himself, he looked very proud, and there was a message between the words, that is, it was actually very powerful.

It's a pity that Li Junran has already had a general impression after coming into contact with the bald little mouse for a few days. So much so that no matter how the bald little mouse is described, in Li Junran's mind, the little guy in front of him is a little mouse with no ears and a yellow/colored vest, fluffy and cute. As for the future when there is enough space energy, the little guy can restore his true body, which is also an enlarged version of the plush mouse.

In other words, the fame of the bald little mouse can be regarded as planted here by Li Junran.

Li Junran, who knew that his bald little mouse was not good at digging holes, had to pick up a shovel and dig a big pit by himself in order not to miss the best planting time, and then plant fruit tree seedlings. Fortunately, those saplings are not big, only twenty or thirty centimeters. But even so, Li Junran is still tired and half dead every day.

As the big girl Bai Zhi who was serving closely next to Cheng Yuyan, she had the opportunity to be lazy every once in a while, but every time she returned to her house, she saw that Li Junran was sleeping soundly, and she couldn't wake up no matter how she shook it. Bai Zhi, who originally wanted to ask Li Junran what happened that day, never got any chance, so she had to put the question in her heart for the time being. After a long time, I forgot to find out where the blue and white porcelain teapot that was resold to the system shop by Li Junran went.

After several busy days, Li Junran finally planted all the fruit tree seedlings. And Bai Zhi finally caught a day when Li Junran didn't sleep anymore, and she wanted to explain something to Li Junran very strictly. To say that Bai Zhi actually doesn't know why her own lady has a different attitude towards Li Junran, but since Bai Zhi, who has always put Cheng Yuyan first in everything, knows that her young lady cares a little about Li Junran, as a personal maid, she naturally has to help her young lady look at Li Junran.
