Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Bunch of Peppers
As soon as she heard that Luo Jinzhou picked the chili peppers, Ji Wan couldn't sit still, Huo Ran got up: "I'll take a look." β
Before the matter was settled, Bi Zhifu did not show up, which caused Lai County to be alert, and he could only watch Ji Wan go to join in the fun.
Ji Wan walked out of the small courtyard and quietly came to the vicinity of the county office.
She saw that Luo Jinzhou was talking happily with a thin man wearing a robe and two long beards on his upper lip.
If you don't know the inside story, you still think that these two people are long-lost brothers!
Ji Wan waited for two teas, and Luo Jinzhou finally shook off Danke and walked in her direction.
"Whew-"
Ji Wan, who was hiding in the corner, spoke.
Luo Jinzhou heard the sound and turned his head in confusion.
Miss Ji?
Luo Jinzhou's eyes lit up, he looked left and right, back and forth, and made sure that no one was following, so he quickly flashed his figure and jumped to Ji Jingshen's side.
He took out a handful of chili peppers from his arms and handed them over, his eyebrows fluttering: "Do you see if it's this?" I took the whole plant bald. β
Ji Wan took a chili pepper and couldn't put it down, her pink nails cut through the oily skin of the chili pepper, and a familiar spicy smell came out.
The corners of her mouth couldn't help but lift.
"This is it."
Ji Wan's eyebrows and eyes stretched, with chili peppers, she could make flavored dried fish, and the big stone that had been pressing on her heart for days was finally removed.
When Luo Jinzhou heard that he had taken the wrong thing, his excitement suddenly overflowed.
"It's wonderful! You don't know, this thing is still from a distant merchant in the dog county order! β
Luo Jinzhou looked pity.
"A good thing in the backyard, what did Danke say from afar, he saw Lai County's order to love the people like water, and he revered it from the bottom of his heart, and dedicated it to Lai County."
He said fiercely: "Bah! A bad stomach, this time we have to do the right thing for heaven! β
At the same time, in the yamen, Danke, who sent away Luo Jinzhou, was chatting with Lai County Ling.
Danke looked disdainful.
"That Luo Jinzhou is simply a belly of grass, so confused, but the angry thing is that such a person is actually worth a lot of money, God is really unfair."
Lai Xianling laughed.
"It's stupid, it's easy to fool, if everyone in the world is smart, how can we have anything? But ......"
Lai Xianling groaned: "Recently, I have been a little panicked inexplicably, as if I hit a villain, are you sure that this person is really the son of a rich businessman, not some trap?" β
"Although my lord put his heart in his stomach, I have inquired carefully, and this son is very clear about business."
Danke sneered lightly with a look of wisdom beads in his hand.
"If you don't do this at home, how would you know those doorways? I haven't heard of some tricks, and that idiot still says it with a big grin, he's not stupid, who is stupid? β
Lai Xianling's heart is comfortable, stupid wow, stupid he can have oil and water!
β¦β¦
A corner not far from the county office.
Ji Wan watched the spit flying, and kept scolding Luo Jinzhou of Lai County Ling and Danke, but she didn't say anything.
It turns out that Luo Jinzhou is a hot-blooded young man with a sense of justice in his heart.
"What? Do you think there's anything wrong with what I'm saying? β
Luo Jinzhou saw that Ji Wan didn't keep talking, frowned, and her white and fat face was matched with embarrassing eyebrows, which was particularly joyful.
"Ahem."
Ji Wan coughed dryly, trying to suppress the smile at the corner of her mouth.
"After you take this chili pepper back, you mash it and soak it in water, and the gold and silver can bring a spicy taste when you pass it in the water, just dry it, as long as the other party is not bored enough to lick it with your tongue, you won't find a problem."
Luo Jinzhou nodded again and again, and asked in surprise: "You don't want to go back to the alley with me?" β
Ji Wan helplessly pointed to the sky and said with a smile.
"Look, if you don't go back, you'll have to travel in the dark, you help me talk to Xin Zixing, I'll come to the door for follow-up in two days, presumably you should have a result by then."
Luo Jinzhou didn't know Ji Jing very well, so he asked politely: "Then take my carriage back?" I'll let the little guy send you. β
Ji Wan touched a few red peppers hidden in her sleeve and quickly shook her head.
She still wants to wait for no one to hurry up and plant peppers in the space!
After seeing Luo Jinzhou leave, Ji Wan stepped on the path back to Qinglu Village, and after she was sure that there was no one around, she found a leeward hiding place and sank her consciousness into the sea of knowledge.
In the sea of knowledge, Ji Wan opened her eyes and suddenly ......
She was stunned!!
The black soil, which used to be only two square meters in size, has now expanded to a hundred meters wide.
The spiritual spring no longer drips out of the water, and the trickle sound is like a wonderful music......
The spiritual spring gathers in the stone pit, and when the stone pit is full, it overflows and slowly seeps into the black earth.
The well-developed roots of several tomatoes are deeply rooted in the black mud that seeps with spiritual springs, and the tall plants seem to have mutated and grown into a tomato dwarf forest.
The tomatoes that have not yet had time to be picked fall to the ground when they are ripe, and they multiply into a large patch of red and green tomatoes.
Ji Wan rubbed her hands excitedly.
In the past, she was not sure if the conditions for the growth of space were related to saving people.
Before going to the coal mine, she had seen the space, there was no change, and after leaving the coal mine, she didn't do anything special.
The space suddenly changed dramatically, and the only reason for the change could be deduced was when she was in the coal mine!
After saving people a few times, the space has changed!
Now Ji Wei has been confirmed-
As long as she persists in healing and saving people, God will always give her back in another way.
Sooner or later, the space will be restored to a paradise!
β¦β¦
There were too many tomatoes in the space, so Ji Wan picked the tomatoes, cleared a small open space, and planted two peppers along the way.
Now that there is more storage in Lingquan, Ji Wan suddenly has a feeling of being rich.
She scooped up a glass of spiritual spring water and poured the freshly planted pepper seeds.
Irrigated by pure spiritual springs, the seeds are visibly swollen with the naked eye.
The seeds sprouted germs and stretched out their branches, and the leaves fluttered and trembled, like a little girl stretching her waist.
After a while, the freshly planted pepper seeds grew into half-human-tall plants, with small white flowers and green fruits......
Ji Wan hurriedly picked the red peppers and replanted them in the vacant land.
Time passed unconsciously, waiting for Ji Wan to harvest thousands of pounds of chili peppers......
After Ji Wan's consciousness came out of the space, she sighed in her heart when she saw the sun falling into the corner of the mountain.
"So late? Broken! β
She hurriedly got up and ran towards Qinglu Village.
On a midsummer night, the sky is covered with bright stars, and a bright moon hangs.
She could barely see the path clearly, so that she would not fall headlong into the paddy fields.
Qinglu Village.
In the courtyard of Xie Jiatang, in addition to the Xie family, there are also villagers who are killing fish together today to make dried fish.
From time to time, they ran outside the courtyard and looked in the direction of the entrance of the village, and each time they returned in vain, the worried look on everyone's faces became more and more worried.
"Why don't you go and find it, we are in the middle of nowhere, there are wild wolves and wild boars coming down the mountain from time to time, Ji Wan is a girl, if you meet ......"
"Bah, good spirits, bad spirits."
β¦β¦
I was so anxious that I discussed with a group of people who were ants on the hot pot for a long time, and finally simply slapped my thigh, lit a torch, and went to find someone in the direction of the county seat.
Ji Wan walked and ran quickly, and it took an hour to finally see Qinglu Village standing at the foot of Qinglu Mountain from a distance.
She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, clenched her fists, and hit her cramping leg hard.
Suddenly, a torch team came out from Qinglu Village, the direction of Xie's house, and caught her attention.
Who are these people? It's so late, and it's so loud, what do you dare to do?
Suddenly, Ji Wan was stunned, and suddenly thought, could it be that she was looking for her?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this guess was very likely!
After thinking about it, Ji Wan got up and walked to a flat ground on the side of the road, and with a wave of her hand, nearly a thousand catties of chili peppers appeared on the flat ground.
With another wave of his hand, nearly a thousand catties of watery tomatoes appeared.
After doing this, Ji Wan began to sit on the side of the road and wait.
The torches were getting closer, and faintly, she heard someone shouting 'Ji Wan'.
"I'm hereβ"
Ji Wan stood up, shook her arms vigorously, and shouted.
"Ji Jing ββ?"
This is Xie Xianhua's voice.
Ji Wan was stunned for a moment, under the torch, standing on one leg, on crutches, and the pale Xie Xianhua appeared in her sight.
Her complexion changed, and she ran towards Xie Xianhua quickly, not caring about the breathless rapid breathing, frowning and stretching her little face.
"How did you get out? With such a serious injury, I don't want my legs and feet to heal, right? β
"I'm worried about you."
Xie Xianhua's dark eyes looked straight at Ji Wan, and her voice was clean and clear, although it was not moving, but at this moment, it was like a gentle breeze that swept through her heart.
The heartstrings fluttered suddenly.
The unfamiliar feeling made Ji Wan's mind stuck.
Xie Xianhua's black and stone-like eyes were overflowing with helplessness, worry and fragmented light.
Like this midsummer night, the brightest star in the dark night sky.
Ji Wan looked at these eyes, and the words of reproach were suddenly stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say it anymore.
She sighed, clasped her hand on Xie Xianhua's wrist, carefully probed the pulse, and after making sure that there was no problem, she was relieved.
The surrounding villagers looked at Ji Wan and Xie Xianhua with a kind smile on their faces.
Zheng patted Qiao's lightly: "They have a good relationship, just wait for Ji Wan and Lu, and then they can do a happy event, right?" β
Zheng didn't deliberately lower his voice, Ji Wei and Xie Xianhua both heard it.
In the minds of the two of them, the picture of her saying that she did not want to marry him in the small courtyard of the Xie family suddenly flashed.
The eyes of the two touched each other.
The atmosphere was a little weird......
"Ahem."
Ji Wan coughed uncomfortably, looked at everyone, and changed the topic.
"Thank you for coming to me, I found the pepper, but there are too many things, I can move back alone, so I am waiting for you here, please come with me."
Chili pepper?
Really found?!
Everyone knows one thing today, an indispensable seasoning for making flavored dried fish - chili!
But chili peppers are too scarce, and Ji Wan has been looking for them recently.
Ji Wan has not returned today, and most of them are wondering: Is it because the things are not found, Ji Wan can't let go of it, and dare not come back?
They didn't blame Ji Wan, they followed behind Ji Wan, secretly exchanging glances and muttering quietly.
"Even if the number of chili peppers Ji Jing finds is small and not enough to make flavored dried fish, let's not show an unhappy look, after all, she has worked hard."
"Yes, yes, something happened, everyone can figure out a way together, and they can't all point to the little girl."
β¦β¦
The villagers who were too engaged in chatting didn't know that Ji Wei had come to them.
She listened to everyone's whispers, and suddenly couldn't help laughing, and couldn't help but press the corners of her mouth with her hand,
What a lovely bunch of people.
"Ahem." Ji Wan cleared her throat and reminded everyone.
Everyone was shocked, and when they saw Ji Wan's smiling little face, they were immediately embarrassed.
Everyone turned their heads here without three hundred taels of silver, looking at the sky, the earth, and the air, but they were embarrassed to look at Ji Wan.
Xie Xianhua, who was not far away, looked at Ji Xuan, who occasionally showed a playful appearance, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
Suddenly, his gaze was not far behind Ji Wan, piled up like a hill of peppers and tomatoes.
His pupils shrank fiercely, and he turned his head abruptly, looking at Ji Wan, and unexpectedly his voice unconsciously rose: "So many?!! β
The villagers are at a loss, what so much? What do you say?
Everyone looked at Xie Xianhua's line of sight.
