Chapter 59: Up the Mountain
"When you go, tell the third son, ask him to help find a bigger one, the restaurant makes money, especially the dishes made, it's really fragrant."
Qing Niang's eyes flashed and flashed, the third son is the capable person? Xuanyi is a talker?
In the evening, at the end of the song, the uncle said to Qing Niang:
"I promised the county lord that next year's grain will be left as seeds, and he said that if the whole county is planted, he will go to the court and ask for credit for us, and I will report Wen Jin's name!"
This is a good thing that the mother can't get, and the woman has to rely on the man in the family. Uncle thought in his heart, glory to the son? I'm afraid Qing Niang is not happy.
Sure enough, Qing Niang immediately said that if she asked Wen Jin for credit, she would do her best to help the county master. Sujia Village is blocked by mountains, there is no wind in winter, and the temperature is not too low, and further north, it is still very cold, and she has to cultivate more cold-resistant seeds.
Cultivate it under the snowy mountains, if you can grow it, the cold outside is nothing.
Even if this credit is given to her uncle, she doesn't want to give it to her father! Wen Jin is still too young, and when the time comes, he will pull out his uncle, and he can't be cheap Du anyway.
"Second grandfather, there is a seasoning called vinegar in today's cold dishes, I have brewed a few jars, this is very good for the body, especially in summer, it can also be appetizing."
"Yes, the county master asked me today, and he asked me to stop, hehe, it's really delicious."
"You let Uncle Kaishan take his brothers on a trip, carry a vat to the ancestral hall, and give a share to the clansmen, but there is one point, you can't put too much at a time, that thing is sour."
"Ouch, Sister Qing'er, grandpa doesn't know what to say, you are thinking about them for everything, turn back, I have to talk to your grandfather a few more words. Grandpa thanked you for them. ”
The two of them were polite, and the uncle hurriedly went back, encircling the clansmen, and it was not so easy for the Du family to manipulate their brothers and sisters!
That night, she took Wen Jin to sit in the sauce garden, pointed to a few large vats and said to him:
"The vinegar I ate today is these jars, there is soybean paste, and under the eaves is my sister's five-grain wine. These, if someone asks in the future, you have to be able to answer them, and you can remember the general method of brewing. ”
When Uncle Zu talked to his sister, Wen Jin was always by his side, and he understood his sister's hard work, so he would look serious.
"Remember what the ingredients are? There is also the time to brew. ”
Qingniang calculated, if nothing happens, the promotion of new food next year, the limelight will not be small, probably their sister and brother will have to return to Beijing, after going back, Wen Jin had better participate in the children's life test, and the iron should be hot.
There is still a year to go, and she doesn't want to put too much pressure on her brother,
"You don't have to go to the academy tomorrow, do you? I heard that there are a lot of wild things on the mountain behind here, and you have been learning with Master Jiang for so long, let's go up the mountain to play, shall we? ”
It is the nature of children to love to play, Wen Jin was happy when she heard it, so she went to find Master Jiang immediately.
"It's okay to go, get up an hour early tomorrow and go back after morning class." The three boys were overjoyed when they heard it, as for the morning class? That's a must! Master said that you can't stop practicing for a day.
At breakfast, I heard that Qing Niang only brought the maid and the children, so I thought that I would not go to the mountains, so Master Jiang also let them go by himself and did not follow.
After eating, a few boys carried their own small bows, held machetes in their hands, and opened the way in front of them in a similar manner.
In the early morning of May, the sun is already a little hot, and the mountains are densely wooded, and there is a path that winds upwards, because there are many people walking, but it is not difficult to walk. For convenience, Qing Niang changed into short clothes, and the maids cleaned up even more neatly, and everyone carried a basket on their backs.
Seeing the mountain streams and strange rocks, Wen Jin and Xiaobai also dragged two lines of poetry, which made everyone laugh non-stop, the three boys have good physical strength, and they are people who practice martial arts.
Although Wen Jin looks thin, he has practiced internal strength, so he is full of stamina, but Shuxiang has become the weakest one in it.
"Little leaf, why are you running so fast? It's weird, don't you feel tired? ”
Xiao Yezi followed the pace of the boys, and from time to time pulled a handful of books, and was tireless at all.
"Sister Shuxiang, when I was at home, I went up the mountain every day to chop firewood, not to mention empty-handed, I could walk with firewood on my back."
"Your father is really, how can you let a little girl chop wood? Ouch, no, girl, let's rest. "Qing Niang walks very easily, maybe she often works in the space.
"It's not my father, it's my grandmother, she always asks my sister to chop wood, and if she doesn't cut enough, she won't give food, and my father will go out to work and won't be at home." Xiaobai listened and explained to Shuxiang.
"What about you? It's up to your sister to go up the mountain too? Why don't you go yourself? ”
"I'm in the field, and I can't finish the work in the field." Mama was sold, and her children had no status in her husband's family, but fortunately, the family had been separated.
"I'm about to go halfway up the mountain, and there's basically no road up there, so let's just go here, I'm going to find some herbs."
Qing Niang took the children, and she didn't plan to go inside, she just saw a lot of honeysuckle, as well as bauhinia and other herbs, and planned to pick more species to enrich the space.
She found an opportunity to hide behind a tree, released Da Biao, and let him go back to his hometown to wander around, and by the way, she watched her brother for her.
The black back has a keen sense of smell in the end, and at the moment when Da Biao came out, he glanced at them, maybe Da Biao had her smell, and the black back didn't say a word.
"Wen Jin, you go and see if there are any rabbits or something, don't run far." The three of them ran away as soon as they agreed, hunting was their purpose today, and the black back rushed forward like an arrow.
Shuxiang was not at ease, but he couldn't catch up, so he hurriedly said to Qing Niang:
"Girl, this is in the woods, you can't let the young master run away."
"It's okay, the boy wants to exercise, isn't there a black back to follow?" The dog has grown very tall, probably well-fed, and is also very spiritual.
Qing Niang carefully picked herbs, and when she encountered a rarity, she threw one or two plants into the space, and also encountered a few orchids, although she couldn't see the variety for the time being, after the baptism of the space, it should not be much worse.
After a while, Wen Jin and the others ran back, carrying two hares in their hands.
"I shot this one, and that one was shot by a small column." It seems that learning martial arts has achieved something, and the three of them are so excited that they put down their prey and run away.
"The young master's arrow is really accurate! This one only shot in through the eyes. "The bamboo arrows are not so powerful, and their bows are also very ordinary, if they are not in a weak place, they will not be able to shoot into them.
"It's pretty good, I don't think it will take long to be able to play the iron bow."
As she was talking, Qing Niang turned a corner and happened to see a peach tree with some fruit on it. Qingqing's was not too red, and it just so happened that the two hadn't caught up yet, so they hurriedly took out seven or eight big peaches from the space.
