Chapter 275: I won't go home tonight

"Xiaobao, open your mouth,." Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao planted rice side by side, and when they were hungry at noon, they quietly grabbed a handful of pork floss from their pockets, stuffed it into Zhang Xiaobao, and ate a handful of it themselves, puffing out their cheeks and chewing.

"Eun." Zhang Xiaobao's mouth was stuffed with something, and he tried hard to wet the meat floss with his saliva, and nodded in response.

The two of them ate secretly, others had nothing, and now they haven't even drunk much saliva, stiff, and a few people have bent their waists like that, not because they don't want to get up straight, but because they are afraid that their waists will be broken, and they don't want to bend again.

Zhang Xiaobao suddenly stretched out his hand, took out a water snake from the water, handed the rice seedling in his other hand to Wang Juan, took out a knife from his waist, and began to clean up the snake.

"I'll go up in a while, I'll roast it for you to eat, I'm ready to bring spices, I wanted to make mud stewed toads, and if there is a snake, I will eat the snake first."

Zhang Xiaobao dug out the snake gall bladder, said a word to Wang Juan and walked towards He Yiwei, and said when he got closer: "He County Order, please eat the snake gall bladder, swallow it raw, don't bite it." ”

He Yiwei didn't know that this water snake was not poisonous, and when he saw the snake scared, he nervously moved his painful and numb feet, opened his mouth and asked Zhang Xiaobao to send the gall to his mouth.

"Thank you Xiaobao, snake gall is a good thing, are there many snakes in Tanaka? Poisonous? He Yiwei endured the discomfort and ate the snake gall bladder, he didn't dare not eat it, and asked worriedly.

"This one is not poisonous, when you find that your feet suddenly hurt, and then you will be numb, that is, you have been bitten by poison, remember to call me, I have a temporary solution."

Zhang Xiaobao scared He Yiwei again, there are too few poisonous water snakes here, and the probability of being bitten is about the same as winning the lottery.

"Okay, okay, that's it." What else can He Yiwei say, hold on, I hope the Zhang family's medical skills really work as the legend says.

At this time, the girl of the owner's house also came back, her house was not close, and when she went home, she found that there was no ginger, and she went to borrow ginger, so she boiled a jar of ginger soup and put some red pond in it.

A bowl of Hongtang ginger water was poured down, He Yiwei was much warmer, and he was about to ask for another bowl, Zhang Xiaobao, who had not left, said: "He County Ling, their family is not rich, a bowl of two pennies, remember how much to drink, help with the work, you can't ask for other people's benefits." ”

"Okay, good, that's good, give money, it's not expensive, a bowl is only two pennies, and another bowl." He Yiwei didn't expect that he would have to put it in for work, a bowl of two pennies, two bowls would be enough to fill a jar of money.

The little girl hurriedly said: "I don't need money, the big official helps my family work, and I don't need money for what I should do." ”

"How can you not have money? The official also wants to thank your family for having land for allowing the official to do more work, you see that the official is already very fat, and your family used to plant rice like this? This time, without Zhang Xiaobao's reminder, He Yiwei knew what to say, and at the same time looked at the little girl, and asked distressedly, he finally knew what spring ploughing tasted like.

"The county magistrate must be tired, it's better to rest, and it won't be so uncomfortable to do it often." The little girl looked at her own land, it was almost finished, and she would make up for it tomorrow, so she didn't need to plant rice again, and said to He Yiwei gratefully.

"Okay, okay, oh no, not tired, not tired at all, do it for a while, it's comfortable, strange." He Yiwei said things against his heart.

The little girl snorted and laughed, "My lord, when you come to my house for dinner in the evening, grandma has already done it." ”

"Okay, okay, that's it." This is what Zhang Xiaobao learned to say, he wanted He Yiwei to think about the past, it is okay to be an official and enjoy happiness, but don't forget that there are still people who are not blessed and are counting on him.

Promised the little girl, Zhang Xiaobao said to He Yiwei again: "He County Order is the first good official who knows that the lower officials know to lead the people to do farm work, and the little officials admire it. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's what it should be, it's all right." He Yiwei wanted to die, he could guess how hard it would be when he went to bed tonight, he thought he could go home and rest, but it seemed that this wish could not be realized.

Two little babies, I remember you, don't you believe that I am uncomfortable, you are not uncomfortable? You two are rich and noble families, you are used to enjoying it, can you bear it?

Zhang Xiaobao knew what he was thinking as soon as he saw He Yiwei's expression, and said in his heart, just because you dare to endure hardships with me and Juan Juan? Do you know who we are?

How did the little girl know that there was such a struggle and calculation behind the officials coming to farm for her family, she only felt warm in her heart, it was the happiest thing to live in Baoxin County, and the emperor really remembered that he was a common person like himself, and sent the best official.

"Lord County, grandma has already killed the chickens, there must be chickens to eat at night." The little girl *** lips and gave He Yiwei a guarantee.

"Okay, no, give money, give money, the official has always given money for food." He Yiwei didn't need Zhang Xiaobao to say, he took the initiative to ask for money, he understood it, isn't it just to use his own money to make up for the people, no matter how expensive it is, how much money can he have? If you give it, you don't have to *** heart, it's good to have chicken to eat.

Zhang Xiaobao felt that this He Yiwei was very interesting, even if he pretended to be fine, it would be natural for him to pretend to be used to it, and said to the little girl:

"Just now, the county commander also made a poem, saying that the spring breeze is coming, and the spring water is murmuring, and the spring water is gurgling through the bones. When the bones are cold, it is in the heart, and the heart and the world are the same as the sky. It is difficult to know the people for the same day, and it is difficult to know the people in the water, and the water is bent and reminiscent of the past. In the past, I studied diligently and looked forward to the mercy of heaven, and when did I pity the heavens, and when did I send the brocade sail to the sea, and the brocade sail took me to the shore, and the shore laughed who was in the field, and who was in the field to recite the old words? ”

"Xiaobao!" He Yiwei looked at Zhang Xiaobao and didn't know what to say.

"Lord He, good poetry, Fang Cai Juan also said that the poem written by Lord He is He Zengyi, the adult is busy, and the official catches a toad at night to give the adult wine."

Zhang Xiaobao said another sentence and walked to Wang Juan's side to continue working.

The little girl didn't understand, "Lord County, what do you mean by the poem?" Is it about rice planting? ”

"Yes, yes, planting rice, yes, planting rice, when planting rice, I think about the harvest in autumn, eating fragrant rice, I have to remember the difficulty of planting rice."

He Yiwei's face changed a few times, he said something to the little girl, and continued to plant seedlings, his eyes looked at his reflection occasionally revealed in the turbid water, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Where did the little girl understand the purpose of Zhang Xiaobao's words just now, and said with a smile: "Lord County Order, grandma is already boiling water at home, and if it is scalded then, she is not afraid of cracking her hands." ”

"Okay, okay, that's it." He Yiwei's movements were much more proficient, and he replied while doing it.

Soon, it was dark, and the work in the field could not be done anymore, and it was a little bit worse, everyone bent down to the road, slowly sat down and lay back, grinning one by one, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn't care if there was anyone next to them, they massaged each other, the two of them were short, and they didn't have to bend so much in the field, and they were better than others.

"Xiaobao, I think if the seven dwarfs live with Snow White, it would be good to grow rice, Snow White will cook at home, and the dwarfs will go to plant rice, what do you think?"

Wang Juan had just been massaged by Zhang Xiaobao, and now he said to Zhang Xiaobao when he massaged Zhang Xiaobao.

"I think if the water is bigger and deeper, the seven dwarfs can be drowned, and Snow White is enough, that's the story of Snow White, not the story of the matriarchal clan, seven."

"What are you talking about? Rogue. ”

"Cooking, one person makes eight, how tired, you light, how many toads did I catch just now? Make braised toads for you, okay, your waist is going to break. ”

After some rest, everyone could finally straighten up and walk, and walked towards the house in this land together, the little girl jumped up and down and followed beside her, and from time to time she said a few words to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and the three of them looked about the same age.

The man seemed very excited, and the official went to the house for dinner, and for the first time, he also helped with the work.

The group walked for nearly two quarters of an hour, and finally came to this house, three earthen houses, with a fence outside, and green onions planted on the enclosed ground at this time, just budding, and there were two chickens in the yard, one male and one female.

It doesn't look so shabby, the top of the house is made of straw, it is very dense, and the yard is also very clean, and you can see that it is a diligent family at a glance.

Zhang Xiaobao looked at the green onion field and said to the male host: "Wait for it to be warm, don't forget to plant the shallots in the field diagonally when planting them separately, bury the soil high, and the county will need a lot of green onions this year." ”

The man understood that if the oblique planting was high and filled, the green onion would grow white, which was suitable for making green onions, so he nodded and said respectfully: "Thank you for your advice." ”

He Yiwei glanced at Zhang Xiaobao in surprise, he didn't expect the two babies to know so much about farming, he thought that the babies of the rich and noble families didn't understand anything, why did they need a lot of green onions?

Everyone simply freshened up, ready to eat, the dish is really good, it should be the mushrooms left last year, the stewed chicken after soaking, no need to eat, look at the chicken skin to know, the stewed is an old hen, fortunately, the stew time is long, it should not be chewy when eating.

There is also a dish of green and tender wild vegetables fried with pork, as well as a wild vegetable soup with frangipani, a small plate of salted beans, and a cake fried with eggs, a total of four dishes and one soup, everyone knows that this is the best thing that this family can come up with.

But the staple food is finished, there are no steamed buns, only rice mixed with millet, and when you look at the rice, you know that it is not good rice, but there is nothing else in it, no sand, and you can't see the thorns left after the small rice is grinded, you can imagine picking it over and over again.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan have not yet entered the table, no one sits in the main position and the first position below, and the county order does not sit, leaving Xiaobao and Juan Juan, and the two of them are making toads and snakes in the kitchen.

After waiting for a while, the two came back with two big wooden plates, Wang Juan looked at the position, and sat down at the bottom, Zhang Xiaobao couldn't, he sat directly in the main position, but pushed the braised toad in front of Wang Juan, Wang Juan glanced at Zhang Xiaobao with a smile, and sent the toad to the front of the man.

When everyone was about to eat, there was a shout outside: "Brother Fu, it's a good thing that I'm not here, I heard that the silver in the county has risen, and the bracelets and chains are much more expensive than before, if there is one at home to sell it quickly." ”
