Chapter 166: Strange Apricots

Lin Yu didn't twist Yan Gu in the end, and when she cooked the meal herself, Qi'er had already sorted out all the items he needed at Yan Gu's instructions.

Qi'er was also pitiful, and Lin Yu agreed to follow him to Lin'an.

Lin Yu had no choice but to agree, and warned him that after he went to Lin'an, he must ensure that he did not look, listen, or speak incivilly, and remember not to cause trouble to the master and Yan Gu......

Qi'er nodded quickly, saying that he would definitely remember the teachings of the eldest sister.

After Yan Gu rested for the night, he left with Qi'er, afraid that the people would be complicated, so Lin Yu did not let the water source go with him for the time being.

Every time he sent others away, this time Qi'er went out for the first time, but he was very excited, he told Sù Linyu Ling'er and Apricot, saying that he would definitely take time to come back to see them after he passed, so it also diluted a lot of parting sadness.

After Qi'er left, Lin Yu was a little unaccustomed to it in the first few days, and wanted to go to Qi'er's room from time to time, and then she forced herself to help Zhang and Aunt Lu cook and tidy up the vegetable patch, and after she got busy, she slowly got better.

Zou Shenbin came to visit again, and he came to ask Qi'er why she hadn't gone to school yet? Lin Yu had to tell Sù that Qi'er had gone to Lin'an.

At first, Zou Shenbin was very surprised, but then he regained his expression, but there was some envy in his tone: "There are a lot of literary masters in Lin'an City, and Brother Qi can study there, but it is really close to the water......"

"Where, where, it's just that Qi'er wants to go outside to have a look, and it just so happened that a former friend came over from Lin'an, so he allowed Qi'er to go, maybe he will come back in a few days......" Lin Yu smiled lightly.

"Besides, Zou Gongzi is very smart. At a young age, he was born as a child, and it is just around the corner to enter Lin'an. There's really no need to be presumptuous......"

Lin Yu's compliments made Zou Shenbin's heart instantly proud. Yes, although he only studied under a small Liu Xiucai, with his own intelligence, it may not be difficult to be admitted to the Hanlin Academy, and at that time, it was not comparable to Lin Qi, who was taken on a study tour today...... Thinking of this, I was still a little jealous just now, and I immediately calmed down.

"That's what the eldest sister said. Xiaosheng didn't dare to say anything else, but he liked this entrance examination the most, the child who was in one fell swoop last year, was admitted to Lin'an City, and it must not be difficult for Xiaosheng, and Brother Qi met in Lin'an City, and it was just around the corner......" Zou Shenbin pretended to be modest, but what he said was extremely proud, listening to his tone. It seems that it is a simple thing for him to be admitted to the Hanlin Academy, but this scientific examination is only once every three years. Even if he can take the test again and pass the test as soon as he passes, it will be at least eight or nine years later......

For Zou Shenbin's super confidence. Lin Yu didn't comment, and his mind that he felt good before was slightly restrained. On the surface, Zou Shenbin is very aggressive. Being a person is also polite and courteous, but this kind of self-righteousness and pretending to be humble makes Lin Yu really don't know how to describe the feeling in his heart, anyway, he just doesn't like it......

After being polite with him, Lin Yu didn't stay to listen to dinner, and now there is no man in the family, Lin Yu doesn't want to cause trouble, but fortunately, Zou Shenbin is also a little self-aware, and after the politeness, he said goodbye and went home.

Now that the temperature is slowly starting to warm up, Lin Yu discussed with Uncle Qi and Uncle Yutian, and decided to trim the low mountain to feed some cattle, chickens and ducks, and a small amount of fat pigs.

In this era, rich families like to eat beef, chicken, duck and fish, but the cattle in the countryside are all laborers, so the cattle killed are generally old, weak, sick and disabled, and beef is very precious. The forest fish thought of feeding this kind of cattle for slaughter, which could not only ensure that there would be no worries about sales after feeding, but also produce a large amount of fertilizer, and at that time, the land in the field would be fertile, and the harvest would naturally be high......

For a while, the forest fish began to get busy again, and ran up the mountain every day. Although the mountain was fenced off a few years ago, I didn't think about what to feed at that time, so I simply tidied up the mountain.

Now that we want to feed the cows, chickens and ducks, we have to build the wall higher, after all, cattle are much more valuable than pigs, and if you lose one, you will have to lose several taels or even ten taels of silver. They also had to build huts in the mountains so that the livestock had a place to rest.

This time she was busy, Lin Yu only went back to the yard when she was eating, so naturally she didn't know, as long as she went out, Xingzi would ask Ling'er to help her keep it secret, and then asked Zhang Qing to set up a carriage and send her to the town.

Every time Apricot went to the town, she told Sù Ling'er that she was going to buy some beautiful needles and threads, or that she didn't know some embroidery skills, so she had to ask the embroidery lady in the cloth village......

Ling'er was afraid that it would not be safe for her to go alone, so she also wanted to accompany her, but Xingzi said that with Zhang Qing here, it would be fine, and she would come back in a while.

As for why she didn't let Lin Yu know, she said that it was because Lin Yu was so busy now, and it was better not to worry about these trivial things for her......

Fortunately, every time Apricot goes to town, he does come back soon, and every time he brings some new needlework or samples from other embroiderers, and then asks Zhang Qing, it is true that every time he pulls Apricot to Buzhuang, or which embroiderer he knows, Ling'er slowly put her mind at ease.

After the shacks on the mountain were set up, the guards were built around, and several families were bought to come back to take care of the livestock, and then dozens of cows, chickens, ducks and piglets, and the forest fish took a breath of relief.

After buying these families, the forest fish is specially selected to know how to breed patient people, this livestock is like raising children, you are good to it, it can grow well.

Lin Yu also raised chickens, ducks and pigs, although the days were not long, but he still summed up some experience, and discussed it with several families. These families have a good temperament, they are very modest where they understand, and they know how to ask for advice if they don't understand.

Lin Yu was very satisfied, and told them that they could not pretend to understand this livestock breeding, so as not to have a disease at that time, for fear of being punished, they did not understand, but they did not seek advice, if they harmed the lives of the livestock, the punishment would be much greater at that time......

Several families are only promises, and they promise never to do that, and they will do their best!

The forest fish is relieved to hand over the farm to you, but they are only asked to leave the house of the night patrol.

As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief on this side, the spring harvest on the other side began again. After being tired for a few months, the forest fish, which had just wanted to catch his breath, was busy again, so he never noticed that the apricots often ran to the town.

Afraid that the tenants would not have enough manpower to collect grain, Lin Yu took Uncle Qi and Uncle Yutian to shuttle around, and when he met a family with little strong labor, he asked the long-term workers who had nothing to do in the family to help in the field......

After a few days, when the grain was almost harvested, Lin Yu stopped running out every day, and Apricot seemed to know that she would not go out anymore, so she stayed at home honestly and did not go to the town often. (To be continued......)
