Nodding and entering the hall, Dong Changhe saw the two baskets of peach blossoms on the ground at a glance, and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing with these peach blossoms?"

Cher tied the horse to the stable, went to the room where the hay was kept, took out some hay and beans and put them in the trough, saw that there was still clean water in the trough, and added some more.

Reaching out and touching the horse's face, it humanely rubbed Cher's hand, snorted, and kicked its hind hooves.

This horse is often fed by Cher, and she also has a deep relationship with Cher, so she won't show her face.

Back in the kitchen to wash her hands, Xue'er put the fried vegetables and steamed buns on the table, took out the porridge and filled three bowls, and set the dishes and chopsticks.

Then he turned around and went back to the upper room to call the Yun family and his wife to eat.

Two scoops of warm water were placed in the washbasin, and the husband and wife washed their hands.

Glancing at the dishes on the table, Dong Changhe said with a smile: "Xue'er's craftsmanship is getting better and better, and the dishes she makes are getting better and better." ”

"Yes, now the concubine has no confidence in her craft, and Xue'er is more talented than the concubine in making food." Yun said with a smile.

Xue'er chuckled in her heart, and said with a smile: "My mother used to be too frugal, and she was reluctant to put oil, and the taste was naturally worse. ”

"What we have is lard, and we can't eat the oil at the end of every year, you and your mother are too thin, and you and your mother are too thin, and they will be like this in the future, there is no loser who is not defeated." Dong Changhe looked at the Yun clan and said.

Yun can see it now, and now she can eat the same meal as her husband, she is very happy, and she doesn't care about Xue'er's use of oil.

Echoed casually: "Yes, killing two pigs every year, I couldn't think of it as a concubine before, and I don't have to save in this area in the future like before." ”

Yun thought of the child in her belly, and was afraid that her poor eating would affect her child, as for Xue'er, she was just a girl, and she was limited in how much she could eat, so she didn't feel distressed.

At the dinner table, Dong Changhe naturally sandwiched a few chopsticks and leeks and scrambled eggs for his wife and daughter, not only caring about himself as before.

When Dong Changhe got off work the next evening, he brought back a bag of peach blossoms, and Xue'er knew that Dong Changhe was very interested in the peach blossom brew she said.

As for how to make peach blossom brew, there is no need for Xue'er to say, Dong Changhe himself will, but it seems that he has not paid attention to this matter in the past.

There is ready-made rice wine in the cellar, which can be used when you take it out.

He also bought some rock candy and came back, and Cher just had to give him a hand.

At this time, she had to admire Dong Changhe's hands-on ability, in fact, in this era, there are really few versatile men like Dong Changhe.

I didn't see the obsessive gaze that Yun Shi looked at his man.

Xue'er couldn't bear to look at it directly, it was completely a kind of Chiguoguo's love...... It's as if the man in front of her is her whole world, and there is no room for anything else.

The brewing method of peach blossom brewing is very simple, you only need to wash the peach petals, soak them in salt water and disinfect them, and then dry them. Then put the petals and rock sugar in a certain proportion into the jar, then pour in the glutinous rice wine, and finally seal the jar and ferment it in the cellar for three to four months.

Dong Changhe directly brewed twenty small jars of peach blossom brew before stopping.

Time is long, and no one will stop its footsteps, and more than 20 days have passed in a blink of an eye.

During this time, Cher learned how to hatch eggs.

Yun would observe the eggs every day, and every one or two hours he would take out the eggs and put them on his eyelids to test the temperature, if the temperature happened to be a little hot, it was the most suitable temperature.

After all, in this era, there is no such thing as a thermometer, and the only way to grasp the temperature is to compare it with the body's own temperature.

If the temperature of the egg itself is similar to the body temperature, or even low, then the quilt should be covered, and if it is much higher, then a layer of quilt should be removed and dried for a while.

Also help the eggs turn over every day, so that they do not always touch the skin on one side.

Every three to four days, you should also shine under the lamp to observe the degree of hatching, and pick out those that cannot hatch, or have stopped hatching.

During this time, Cher helped the family to re-wash and sew all the bedding. Yun also made small futons and pillows.

Because she was in a good mood, she made an exception to make a few sets of clothes without patches for Cher, and by the way, she also made a new set of thick clothes for Cher to wear in winter.

The hatched eggs also broke one after another, and during this period, Xue'er also ate some hairy eggs.

Eggs break out of their shells in about twenty days, duck eggs take less than a month, and geese take more than a month to hatch.

One hundred eggs hatched more than eighty chicks, and there was no difference of a few days, and forty ducklings and thirty-five geese hatched one after another.

The newly cracked chicks are fed millet, and the ducklings and geese are fed with minced wild vegetables.

These tasks were given to Cher, but fortunately, she was patient and served them well.

The newly hatched poultry are very cute, so that Cher can't put it down, and she will do her best to serve it.

On this day, Dong Changhe got off work very early and went home in the middle of the afternoon, Yun was weaving at home, Xue'er was learning embroidery, and helping his unborn brother embroider his belly pocket.

The mother didn't expect Dong Changhe to come back so early today.

Welcoming Dong Changhe into the house, the Yun family asked suspiciously, "Lang Jun, why did you come back so early today?" ”

Dong Changhe said while drinking tea: "The new county commander has taken office, and tomorrow I have to visit my husband, and I have to make an appointment with the county commander for the owner of the water village to have a banquet for him."

Today I will take care of my husband when I come back, and my lady will help me prepare the best clothes in a while, and take out my best tiara and hosta. ”

After a pause, he said, "By the way, is there anything else at home that you can get your hands on?" ”

Yun Shi thought for a while: "Last time, Lang Jun went to Tiezhou to buy two sets of good inkstones, and the county order is a scholar, so he should like it." ”

Dong Changhe nodded and said, "Yes, just take the inkstone!" ”

Yun Shi was puzzled: "Lang Jun, why do you have to prepare gifts for yourself for the county order of the water village?" ”

She is a Pixiu, she only goes in and can't go out, and if she wants to take out such a good thing to give it away, the Yun family is really a little reluctant.

Dong Changhe glanced at the Yun clan and explained: "Weifu is now helping the owner of the water village, but it is impossible to help him do things for the rest of his life.

Seeing that we are going to have a son, they all say that everything is inferior, only if the study is high, it is naturally good for the son to be able to enter the imperial examination in the future, if not, the husband does not want his son to work for others like me.

There was a time when I wanted to open up those wastelands and plant fruit trees, but it has been a few years since I bought those wastelands, and it is not a problem to keep them barren. ”
