Chapter Forty-Seven: Success Never Takes the Third Step [Two Chapters in One]
After picking for an hour, Ji Xiang realized the size of the rose field. I worked hard and violently to pick it, but I didn't even finish picking one-tenth of the flower field.
Thinking about the petals that fall every day in this flower field, my heart is dripping with pain.
Due to the lack of raw materials, Ji Xiang only processed the grapes, fermented at the appropriate temperature, and the mellow fruit wine was good.
In less than a moment, dozens of kilograms of grapes have been turned into wine.
"Get rich, is this jar also real?" Ji Xiang remembered the embarrassment of taking a bath in the space last time, looked at the wine jar where the pink-skinned pig was sitting, and opened his mouth suspiciously.
[Really, trutruly, truer than a pearl.] Zhang Bangfu patted the seal of the wine jar, [not what you think in your heart.] ]
Then, he gave Ji Xiang a very humane glance, and the latter came back to her senses in embarrassment, she had a picture in her mind - Portuguese: Grape wine is not contained in a jar, it can only be suspended in the air, and the liquid is overflowing.
After chatting with Zhang Bangfu for a while, Ji Xiang added a few drops of rose essential oil to Zhou Caidie's spiritual spring.
The rose hydrosol is processed and packed in a beautiful glass bottle. This was an extra gift from the system, Ji Xiang thought it looked good, and wanted to keep the flower arrangement.
"How many compression masks are there in total?" She had to distribute it, after all, the women in her own family also needed it.
[Inexhaustible!] ]
What? That's right. Ji Xiang raised his head and shouted hissedly, he didn't pay attention just now, his neck was too strong and twisted.
Zhang suddenly became rich and hated that iron could not become steel, and his eyes were full of mockery. [Tsk, it's useless.] Hurry up, I've got a dog skin plaster here. ]
This is done by the system, and it has some effect, but it cannot be used by people other than the host, at least not for the time being.
"It hurts, mom, it's all you, I'm excited." Ji Xiang covered his neck, and it hurt like a pinprick in a pinprick. Fortunately, the dog skin plaster is pasted, and the warmth is ironed on the injured place.
The pink-skinned pig snorted, [It's your own long hair and short knowledge, but it's a low-level world, and you're happy to not find the north.] If you get a weapon from the high world...... Not...... Speaking of which, the host shouldn't know about this now.
Ji Xiang, who was scooping up wine and drinking, raised his eyes and said to Zhang Fufu suspiciously, "Weapon? The advanced world? ”
Zhang Baofu didn't have the idea of explaining, but drifted farther away, and Ji Xiang didn't want to continue to ask when he saw him like this. "And what world am I in?"
Ji Xiang looked eagerly, and then the pig head said something about the low-level world.
[Although we are in a lower world, as long as we have a love for life, we can always usher in light and warmth.] ]
He boiled a pot of chicken soup, and Ji Xiang had to eat it even if he couldn't eat it.
However, she still cares a lot about the weapons of the advanced world, what kind of nun will it be? Is it a fantasy or a science fiction of science and technology, "Zhang suddenly gets rich, am I not the only one in this world?" ”
If they also have a golden finger, they can also grab red envelopes and even get devastating weapons. So what should she do?
[Confidential, your authority is insufficient.] Zhang suddenly got rich and said simply, so that Ji Xiang returned to reality.
It's useless to think too much, and now her goal is to become a rich woman.
After tidying up the wine jar, Ji Xiang sowed the soybean seeds that he had stored before, which are the raw materials to be processed into soy sauce in the future.
Next is Peanuts, speaking of which, Ji Xiang has always forgotten to inquire about the news of Yun's shop. I always feel that it is very familiar and friendly there, maybe it was opened by the predecessors of the traverser.
The pink-skinned pig also came to help, so that Ji Xiang could finish sowing the seeds in a short time.
Out of the space, Ji Xiang went home first, and Chen Xie An had already come back at this time, cleaning up the pig's head.
There is also pork belly and red beans that I bought.
"Xianggong, how did you buy red beans?" Ji Xiang clapped his hands and was overjoyed. She just thought about going to Yun's shop to buy some red beans and bean paste, and Xianggong bought it back.
Chen Jie'an put down the knife in his hand, the hair of the pig's head had been cleaned up, and he did farm work like a fairy without violating the harmony, "Passing by, Uncle Zhang sent it." ”
Sending red beans?
Ji Xiang frowned, feeling that Uncle Zhang was probably a real person. "Fairy tofu and lo-mei sell well."
"Well, that's good. Many people like it. Xiang'er, I also want to eat boiled pork slices. "That's why you bought pork belly? Ji Xiang covered his smile with the back of his hand, and his bent eyes were as bright as the moon last night.
Her father-in-law is so cute, especially the hair that falls down from his forehead, covering the sharp corners of his eyes, and his eyebrows are slightly furrowed, like a big fluffy dog.
That's right! It's like a sturdy Alaska.
Ji Xiang, who was amused by his association again, looked at Chen Jiean's innocent wink, and suddenly became evil. A few strode in front of the cheap minister, and while he was sitting, he bent down and picked up the soft face.
It's so easy to pinch, like a marshmallow.
She pressed her hands, and Chen Jiean's lips pursed, the lips that were redder than rouge: the petals were like red fruits next to each other.
"Xiang'er?" Chen Xie An called Ji Xiang's name helplessly, he still had oil stars in his hand, so it was not good to reach out directly to block it. That's what gave her an opportunity, "Let go." ”
Ji Xiang also pursed his lips, squinted his eyes, and shook his head to make a sound of coaxing the child. "Don't, don't, slightly."
Chen Xie An lowered his eyes and opened them again. "Don't make a fuss, things haven't been dealt with yet." He said a pig's head, and Ji Xiang asked him to buy it back yesterday.
"I don't, I don't."
She grimaced, her hands pinching and squeezing. When Wang came out of the back room, he screamed, and then he withdrew his evil hands.
Looking at the red marks on Chen Jiean's face, Ji Xiang not only did not feel guilty, but even took advantage of the unpreparedness to secretly kiss him on the cheek.
I thought that the sneak attack would not be caught, but who knew that Chen Jie'an moved extremely fast, and as soon as he stretched out his big palm, he hooked Ji Xiang's neck and took it into his arms.
Ji Xiang, who was unsteady in her steps, sat down in Chen Jie'an's arms suddenly, she was a little scared, although she kept talking about giving birth to a baby, but Ji Xiang knew in her heart that the original owner was only fifteen.
In her time, Chen Jie'an was a crime.
"Phase...... Xianggong ......"
She opened her mouth, and the originally provocative grimace turned into immature and innocent eyes, and she looked at Chen Jie'an with watery eyes, until he chuckled in his heart and jumped violently.
"Do you dare?"
Chen Xie An punished the evil lips, and instead held her small chin with his hand full of oil stars.
"Mother is still ......" Ji Xiang nested in Chen Jiean's arms, listening to his thunderous heartbeat, but kept thinking of the temperature of Chen Jiean's fingers. What's wrong with her, why did she feel happy at such a humiliating moment.
A fire burned in his heart, and he soared violently, and his neck and ears were hot. Two crimsons flew on his cheeks, but the man was still staring at you, even getting closer.
The hot breath he exhaled hit Ji Xiang's face, itchy, very comfortable.
"Don't dare......" Ji Xiang hurriedly replied, she was afraid that if it was too late, the abnormality in her body would swallow her.
There was a force in her back, and she quickly stood up. Straightening his wrinkled clothes, he immediately lowered his head when he saw Wang's shadow.
It's such a shame.
Damn, I was going to tune in. The drama is public, but I didn't expect it to be the other way around.
Ji Xiang recalled Chen Jiean's appearance in her mind, and suddenly stiffened behind her back, damn it, how could she forget that she was standing in front of the deity.
hurriedly ran back to the house, and forgot to say hello to Wang.
Yun Xiang happened to open the curtain, and Ji Xiang passed by like a gust of wind.
"What's going on? Blushing like this. Yun Xiang glanced at the Wang family, saw her looking at Chen Xie An, and remembered Ji Xiangping's boldness, how could she not know what was going on.
They both smiled and went about their work.
Chen Xie An looked at the little daughter-in-law's shy expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.
"Goo-goo."
It was the sound of a rooster crowing, Chen Jiean's ears moved, and the smile was withdrawn. And Ji Xiang, after a while, buried himself in the futon.
It's a shame!
What a shame!
It's obvious that he took the initiative, how could he be overtaken in the end! For a while, Ji Xiang was only concerned about how Chen Xie was so flirtatious, could it be that there had been Bai Yueguang before?
Zhang Mingzhu is still Zhao Erhua.
It's unlikely, Xianggong's vision is not so bad, this look is two white lotuses.
Thinking of the straight side of the husband again, it is possible to be deceived. Ji Xiang bit his lips and gritted his teeth, only feeling that his heart was sour, as if he had drunk a big bowl of vinegar.
After calming down, Ji Xiang got up and prepared to change into clean clothes. She also decided to break off her friendship with her husband for a while...... No...... A quarter of an hour!
……
Zhou Caidie touched her face, and the previous black yarn was thrown under the bed and fell to ashes.
There were also bronze mirrors in the room, and she looked left and right, and the distorted mirror could only make out her features, which were still symbols.
"Butterflies?"
It's Wen's voice.
Zhou Caidie hurriedly wrapped in cyan tulle, turned the bronze mirror upside down, she got up, looked at the light yellow placket, and the bottom was a cyan embroidered pleated skirt.
"I haven't had time to see you for the past few days, but I only know from my aunt that you are half better." As soon as Wen came in, Zhou Caidie smiled.
"yes, thanks to you." Zhou Caidie sincerely took Wen's hand, her eyes were red, "If you hadn't led me to Ji Xiang, I'm afraid I wouldn't have survived." ”
She was divorced five times because of this, and the look of surprise and disgust of those people is still engraved in her mind.
Wen grabbed Zhou Caidie's hand and returned warmth.
"Don't talk about this sad thing, I'm here to say a happy event."
Zhou Caidie was surprised, what kind of happy event? She couldn't help but look at Wen's stomach, remembering that the Saturday family didn't seem to have added a ding, and she trembled a little when she spoke. "Pregnant?"
She and Wen are five years apart, but the two grew up together and have an excellent relationship.
He was about to say something flattering, but was interrupted by Wen. "Tell me something, I'm going to say something about your happy event!"
It's mine? Zhou Caidie's heart jumped violently, she seemed to have a premonition, what Wen was going to say next.
"My aunt entrusted a matchmaker, saying that she had fallen in love with a talent in a neighboring village!"
Sure enough, Zhou Caidie took two steps back and almost tripped over. Wen came up to hold on, but his mouth was gushing. "I heard that the surname is Yu, and he is not very old. The person is Svenwen, there are few brothers in the family, and the mother-in-law is also easy to talk. ”
Zhou Caidie couldn't listen to a word, looking at Wen's mouth one by one, she had an urge to tear it up.
"I ...... I'm a little tired. She finally found a moment for Wen to rest her breath, and quickly covered her forehead and pretended to be unwell.
Wen saw that her lips were indeed pale, but he did not doubt it. "Then you have a good rest, I'll come back tomorrow."
After Wen left, Zhou Caidie sat down on the ground.
No, you can't sit still. Zhou Caidie cheered up, looked at the familiar furniture, and made a decision in her heart.
After packing up some standing soft and soft, Zhou Caidie walked to the path. She was going to find Ji Xiang, but apart from her, Zhou Caidie really couldn't find anyone else who could help.
Mon Province
Meng Huaidong carefully checked his clothes and cleaned up the useless things in the study.
He pulled out another copy of the Analects, and then sat down on the high chair with difficulty. When he climbed up, Meng Huaidong couldn't help but scold his uncle a few words.
How could an uncle make a high chair without taking care of his nephew's height.
"Ahem." When he was ready, Meng Huaidong coughed twice. He pretended to be looking at the book, but in fact his eyes kept looking at the closed carved wooden door.
Bang, a chubby figure accidentally slammed the door open. She didn't see the threshold, the cross was not high, and with a snap, it fell into a large shape.
Even if he cleaned every day, Meng Huaidong could see the stirring dust.
The person who fell raised an innocent face, she looked left and right, and then got up and flattened her mouth at Meng Huaidong.
It's all to blame for the winter flowers and spring willows, as soon as they heard the coughing sound, they pushed her in, for fear that she would escape. really underestimated her, even if it was for the monthly money, she would not back down.
But when she saw Meng Huaidong, a trace of fear still emerged in her heart. He doesn't seem to have changed much from a few years ago, he's still so small.
Looking at herself again, Fat Ni suddenly regained her advantage in height.
Meng Huaidong couldn't help laughing, pretending to be serious, and shouted at Fat Ni impatiently: "What are you still doing standing stupidly, hurry up and come over to sharpen the ink." ”
Fat Ni sighed and moved to the edge of Meng Huaidong's desk. Picking up the ink stick, it moved for a while.
It was the best Songmo, and now it is suffering in the hands of Fat Ni.
"What's it called?" Meng Huaidong suddenly spoke, so frightened that Fat Ni almost threw the ink strip to the ground. Fortunately, she restrained herself and said her name in a sullen manner.
I don't know why, after knowing that Young Master Meng didn't remember herself, Fat Ni felt a little uncomfortable in her chest.
It's probably been too long since I've been away from home. Fat Ni made an excuse for herself.
"It's not good, I'll call you Qixiang in the future."
Fat Ni shook her head. "No, it's not good."
"And what do you want to call it?"
Why change the name, isn't Fat Ni good?
Fat Ni thought so in her heart, and asked out of her mouth. Meng Huaidong was stunned, but he didn't refute it, as if he acquiesced to her words.
It's weird.
Fat Ni thought about it and helped Meng Huaidong find a reason for his strangeness, about the reincarnated immortal monarchs are all such weird people.
"Ahh
Meng Huaidong rubbed his nose, how do you feel that someone is thinking about me.
……
Ji Xiang looked at Zhou Caidie, and then at Zhou Yu, who lowered his head and became popular. I never thought they would be a couple.
When was the "...... of you" determined. Before Ji Xiang asked, Zhou Caidie had already pursed her lips, and she took a big sip of boiling tea, and then she got her soul back.
"It was half a month ago." That is, the first few days when Zhou Yu went to Sun Daniu's house to grind tofu?
Zhou Caidie took Zhou Yu's hand and gave her warmth. "When I passed by Sun Daniu's house, I heard Zhao Erhua bullying Zhou Yu, and I couldn't help but step forward to defend a few words. Later, every time I went for a run, he would accompany me. Come and go, and we'll ......"
Zhou Yu nodded, and Zhou Caidie continued: "My mother will not agree to me being with Zhou Yu, she has now entrusted the matchmaker, and it is estimated that she will come to the house to propose marriage in a few days." ”
The half-grown boy bowed his head in frustration, and in Ji Xiang's opinion, he seemed to be about to cry.
It's not that Ji Xiang is unwilling to help, but Zhou Yu is a minor child, how can he take on a family. If Zhou Caidie is determined to marry Zhou Yu, then she may have to bear the responsibility of making Zhou Yu mature.
As far as Ji Xiang knows, none of these feelings are good results.
In his heart, Ji Xiang did not agree with Zhou Caidie's elopement.
"I can lend you money, but have you thought about it, once you elope with Zhou Yu, you will never see your mother again in this life." Ji Xiang looked at Zhou Caidie's firm gaze, and couldn't help but sigh at the blindness of love, only half a month, Zhou Caidie was already willing to give everything.
That week, Yuni? Is he willing, he still has an old lady and a half-blind father at home, and a younger brother who has no ability to make money, if he leaves, who cares about them?
Ji Xiang seemed to want to see Zhou Yu through, "You? Zhou Yu, are you willing to give up everything to take care of Caidie for the rest of your life and make her stable? ”
"I ...... I...... I'm ......" Zhou Yu was so anxious that he couldn't speak, he looked at Zhou Caidie deeply, and fled from her eager gaze. "I do."
Zhou Caidie stood up violently and hugged the tall man, her veil half blown up by the wind, revealing a flawless face.
Zhou Yu was stunned and hugged the woman blankly. Ji Xiang looked at this scene, and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. Zhou Caidie has never hit the south wall or looked back, even if she says more now, it is useless.
"Take the money." Ji Xiang took out fifty taels of silver tickets, "You also know the situation in my family, so do you have any plans in the future?" ”
Zhou Caidie wiped her tears and took the silver ticket. After thanking him for his kindness, he choked up and spoke. "I haven't thought about it yet, but I'll be back. Just avoid this for now, and wait for my mother to stop being angry......"
"You told your mother that you were going to elope with Zhou Yu?"
Ji Xiang almost suffocated himself, but saw Zhou Caidie nodding, "I wrote a letter saying that I was going to the county seat to do work, and I didn't want her to worry." ”
Fortunately, Ji Xiang put his heart down, and Zhou Caidie was not so confused that he ruined his reputation. "Forget it, it's okay to drag it out."
"You come with me." Ji Xiang pulled Zhou Caidie, and when he saw that Zhou Yu couldn't hear it, he lowered his voice. "After you live with him, remember not to commit to it."
She said boldly, Zhou Caidie was stunned, and then blushed cheeks. "What nonsense are you talking about, he and I don't even have a marriage book, how can you ...... How to have sex with each other. ”
That's good, seeing that Zhou Caidie listened to it, Ji Xiang went back and gave her the Lingquan jar. I touched the compression mask from the space and taught Zhou Caidie how to use it.
"When I rent a house, I will leave a letter from Dr. Sun of Jishitang, and I will have to send you a new prescription when I arrive. Also, don't ...... my words."
Zhou Caidie hurriedly stopped Ji Xiang's words, "As long as you are not ashamed, I know everything." When you come to me, you can meet Fat Ni together. It's only been a few hours, and I've been thinking a little about it. ”
After gossiping, Ji Xiang took Chen Xie and sent people to the county seat. Then he asked Uncle Zhang to find them a cheap house, and Chen Xie came back.
Ji Xiang helped Chen Xie Saan pinch his shoulders distressedly, and talked about Zhou Yu and Zhou Caidie worriedly. She always felt that Zhou Yu was unreliable, like a doll. During the conversation, it was also Zhou Caidie who was dominant, where there was a man.
"Xianggong, if Zhou Yu leaves, what will happen to Sun Daniu?" Ji Xiang hadn't gone out for several days, and he really didn't know that Sun Daniu was well, and even his leg was not lame.
After listening to Chen Jie'an, Ji Xiang attributed this good thing to Lingquan.
"What about the fishermen that week? Although it is also in the county seat, it is easy to take the lead, and maybe the Dalin clan will catch the trace. said so, but Ji Xiang thought that the Dalin clan should not blame Zhou Yu for Zhou Caidie's departure.
Even if she is so familiar with Zhou Caidie, she doesn't know that the two sisters and brothers are in love.
Chen Xie An held Ji Xiang's hand instead, eager to iron away Ji Xiang's frowning brows. "Xiang'er, I just came back, and I heard you sigh several times. Well, stop bothering about these things, we should do something serious? ”
Serious business? Ji Xiang immediately thought of other places, his face was blushing, and his tone couldn't help but be coquettish. "It's broad daylight, Xianggong Mo Hu said."
Withdrawing his hand, there is still the touch of Chen Jie'an's vicissitudes on it. The big palm full of calluses, and the feeling of rubbing it, made her bones numb.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard a chuckle in her ear, and Chen Xie An didn't know when she got behind her, "Xiang'er, the business is that the pig's head hasn't been cut open yet, didn't you say that you want to make lunch and show off your skills?" ”
"That's what you're talking about?" Ji Xiang didn't admit that he was a little disappointed, and he still laughed when he saw his father-in-law, so he had to cough twice, "Yes, I think so too." ”
She turned and went to the kitchen, where the sun was now high and she was dizzy.
"Goo-goo-goo"
It's a rooster crowing again, Ji Xiang thought to himself, these chicks have been barking a little abnormally in the past two days. Shouldn't I have drunk the spiritual spring, and I want to become a sperm like rhubarb.
Speaking of rhubarb, Ji Xiang hasn't seen much in the past two days, since the injury healed that day, rhubarb has been wild everywhere, and he will never go home until he eats.
Just thinking about it, Ji Xiang heard someone knocking on the door outside.
Today is really a hurry, a Zhou Caidie has left, and I don't know who is coming. Wang went out to answer the door, only to open it, and a chubby head came in.
"Aunt Wang, sister, brother-in-law," is it Ji Ming? This is a bit unusual, since the last time I rescued him, I have never seen Ji Ming come here again.
I want to know that it was the Lin family who didn't let me.
Ji Xiang wiped his hands and hurriedly beckoned Ji Ming over. "Why are you here? How's Daddy doing, his leg is better. Did I eat the wild chickens and supplements I sent? Look at you again, don't you steal it? ”
She muttered a lot, and Ji Ming only shook her head. waited for the series of questions to stop, and Ji Ming answered them one by one.
"Daddy misses you. I took advantage of my mother's return to my grandmother's house to come out. She locked me in the room to study, saying she couldn't disgrace her. ”
Hearing this, Ji Xiang was a lot happy, knowledge is power, and it is always right to read more. "This sounds right, if you don't understand anything, ask your brother-in-law."
She pointed to Chen Jie'an, which was a clear way for Ji Ming.
The sister and brother talked for a while, and Ji Ming looked around. Ji Xiang didn't know that this kid was here for his late mother. It's so big, and I'm still thinking about playing.
"The late lady is learning embroidery inside, how can she be like you, you only know how to play?" Ji Ming was not convinced, but he didn't refute it, but went to play with his wife angrily.
Ji Xiang laughed, "Don't leave today, stay at my sister's place for lunch." ”
Hearing the answer of the people in the inner room, Ji Xiang was also busy in front of the stove. Wang wanted to help, but she was also driven away, but she had to use the space, how could she be seen.
Hands moved, from time to time to look at the vivid Xianggong, listening to the sound of women and children laughing in the room, I probably understand why men regard the hot kang head of their wives and children as the ultimate goal.
Soak the red beans and boil the bean paste in the afternoon. Prepare the glutinous rice flour and knead it with wormwood juice. Make the dough necessary for Qingtuan, cook the firewood rice, and add some chopped pumpkin.
Next is to make flower cakes, Ji Xiang made some dough like a look, and went to the courtyard to pick a lot of roses.
This is also transplanted from space, Chen Jie'an and others are used to seeing Ji Xiang's eccentricity, but they don't bother to ask what the name of this gorgeous flower is.
After making a few casually, Ji Xiang threw the flour and remaining dough into the space for processing.
When you take it out again, it's a hot flower cake.
"How fragrant? This is a cake made of flowers, which is really unusual. ”
