Originally, this Yizhuang was still the specific implementation point of the old Wang clan to donate land and property for the clan's benevolence.

With the changes of the times, it has gradually declined, until now those two or three dilapidated houses are not desolate.

This Zhao County occupies a small area, and it is poor, and the successive county governors or envoys are all poor, and they must think of some ways to make some quick money.

Yizhuang is a moneyless business, and naturally no official will put his mind on it.

Lin Xiangxiang had been in contact with Zhao Jiuzhong in the county government for a long time, but she didn't hear her mention the matter of repairing Yizhuang, so she had doubts all the way.

She was stunned when she saw that Yizhuang, which was originally only two or three dilapidated low houses, had already become a tall, open and brand-new house.

Jiang Dali saw it in his eyes and smiled dryly: "I didn't lie to you, girl, this Yizhuang is not the previous Yizhuang, Lord Zhao is really a good person, as soon as he took the position, he did so many good things." ”

Lin Vanilla didn't reply to him, his eyes turned and looked at the building not far from Yizhuang, which was still being renovated, and he couldn't see the scale.

Jiang Dali saw that she was fascinated, and slowly explained: "This is the academy that Lord Zhao asked people to build, children can't enter social studies, and there is still this academy to study after all." ”

Lin Vanilla lowered her eyebrows slightly, she couldn't know more clearly in her heart, Jiang Dali's mouth was relaxed, but Zhao Jiuzhong really did it, it was not so easy.

Social studies are all read by rich squires, and the reason why Zhao Jiuzhong built another academy is only because of the person behind the scenes of social studies, which he can't move for the time being.

"Dali, what are you doing standing there?" As soon as Aunt Quan came out of the room, she found Jiang Dali's tall figure, and in a blink of an eye, she saw Lin Vanilla beside him clearly, and immediately said happily: "Vanilla, you are here!" ”

Lin Vanilla came back to her senses and hurriedly walked into the house.

"Auntie, I'll come over to see you and Uncle Quan." Lin Xiangxiang said with a smile, and looked into the house, but she couldn't help but be surprised when she didn't see Uncle Quan: "Uncle Quan is no longer in the house?" ”

Aunt Quan shook her head happily and pointed to the building not far away: "Your uncle has gone into the mountains to pick up mushrooms, Lord Zhao is cultivating the academy, and your uncle and I are responsible for making some food." ”

Lin Xiangxiang suddenly put the things on her back aside, and told Aunt Quan about renting a storefront on the street.

When Aunt Quan heard it for the first time, she was still very surprised, and after a while, she asked her again: "The silver for renting the shop is enough, if it is not enough, your uncle and I will help you think of something?" ”

Lin Vanilla naturally saw that Aunt Quan'er was sincere in what she said, and she was also grateful in her heart.

"No need, Aunt Quan, if you get busy in the future, maybe you need Aunt Quan to help me." Lin Vanilla pulled Aunt Quan and said, but she was telling the truth.

If before, there were still apricot blossoms, but now that the apricot blossoms are gone, Ruan's is pregnant again, and all she can think of is Aunt Quan.

Aunt Quan nodded hurriedly, looked at the rice in her pocket again, and hesitated: "I want to help, but I don't have your skills, I'm afraid that it will not help you when the time comes." ”

"What do you say?" Lin Xiangxiang snorted, and at this time, Jiang Dali's voice sounded at the right time: "Uncle Quan, look, who's coming." ”

As soon as I looked up, I happened to see Uncle Quan coming from outside, I haven't seen him for many days, Uncle Quan's footsteps are still staggering, I think about it, I fell my leg and foot a while ago, and it is not yet complete.

"Vanilla, you're here." As soon as Uncle Quan saw Lin Vanilla, his face, which was still melancholy, suddenly became happy.

Lin Vanilla saw the change in his expression, nodded, and looked into the basket in his hand, only to see that the basket only contained a little mushroom, and he didn't pick up much.

There are not many mushrooms in this season, not to mention, it is no wonder that the sun is still shining every day.

"Just a few mushrooms? How to eat this? There are so many craftsmen ······" Aunt Quan'er's voice came from behind him, and it could be heard that he was obviously in trouble in his voice.

"Just cook some more melons, and you can finally eat." Uncle Quan said, limped, and walked into the house.

Lin Vanilla heard it in a fog, and finally couldn't help asking, "Aunt Quan, those craftsmen are also eating here?" ”

"Yizhuang is some distance from the street, it was your uncle who left them to eat here, we planted vegetables outside, and it didn't cost a few dollars, even if we ate a variety of dishes all day, I couldn't get along with your uncle Quan's hearts."

Aunt Quan said, and pointed to Yizhuang: "Lord Zhao not only helped us rebuild Yizhuang, but also promised us that in the future, let Zhang Luo stay in the academy to study, and if we don't accept our money, we have to do something for Lord Zhao." ”

Lin Vanilla nodded, Zhang Luo ran over from outside, hugged Lin Vanilla, looked up at her, very happy.

"This kid is not stupid, he just can't speak." Aunt Quan sighed, a little heavy.

Lin Vanilla reached out and rubbed Zhang Luo's head, then took the watermelon to the board and cut the watermelon for everyone to eat.

This season's watermelon is ripe, the knife goes down, just cut a slit, the whole watermelon is split in half, leaving a puddle of juice on the table, just smelling the taste, it seems to be able to feel its sweetness.

After dividing the watermelon, Uncle Quan came out with a pumpkin from the back room.

"Let's cook more rice, and then go back and stir-fry some spicy and pumpkin." As soon as Uncle Quan explained to Aunt Quan, the pumpkin in his hand was snatched away by Lin Vanilla.

Lin Vanilla handed him a piece of watermelon, and he already went to the stove to help with no wonder.

Uncle Quan was stunned for a moment, shook his head with a smile, but didn't stop her.

"Vanilla, Xiaoshan is okay, by Lord Zhao's side, are you still used to it?" Uncle Quan asked, Lin Vanilla nodded, opened the rice jar and scooped rice.

Aunt Quan had already lit a fire, boiled the water, washed the rice with Lin Herb, poured it into the pot, and Uncle Quan's voice came from behind her: "These days, Lord Zhao has asked me about you." ”

"Ask me?" Lin Vanilla had seen Zhao Jiuzhong in the past two days, and she didn't see what he wanted to ask.

Looking back at Uncle Quan, I wanted to hear him continue, but he stopped talking, and Lin Vanilla was inexplicable for a while.

Aunt Quan brought a piece of watermelon to Lin Xiangcao, and snorted angrily at Uncle Quan: "Don't listen to him, he is always so scary, Lord Zhao just asked casually, and didn't say anything else, and we didn't dare to mention that you are a woman." ”

Hearing Aunt Quan'er's words, Lin Xiangcao knew that she should have misunderstood what she meant, and at the moment, she didn't say much, only took the watermelon and sat under the stove to watch the fire.

"Although this Lord Zhao is easy to get along with, he is the housekeeper after all, you have lied to him after all, you still have to guard against it." Uncle Quan hesitated for a moment and said again.

Lin Vanilla nodded, but she knew in her heart that Uncle Quan was worried about her.

Unexpectedly, after a lifetime of rebirth, Uncle Quan has not changed at all, just the expression he spoke just now, Lin Vanilla actually had a feeling of returning to the past, and his heart was warm and astringent.

After a while, Jiang Dali chopped some bamboo shoots over, and Lin Vanilla and Aunt Quan worked together for most of the hour, and finally tossed a few dishes.

Uncle Quan asked Aunt Quan to set the dishes and chopsticks, and he went to call the craftsmen to eat. Lin Xiangxiang quietly took the rice grain he bought to the stove, untied the cloth bag, put three bowls of flour into the basin, added water, and stirred it evenly with chopsticks, so as to add firewood to the stove.

Aunt Quan noticed her actions and hurriedly asked, "Vanilla, what are you?"

"Add a dish to everyone, just try my craft, and I can see if everyone likes this flavor."

Aunt Quan listened to Lin Vanilla talking, and she was also curious.

After all, she had tried Lin Vanilla's craftsmanship, and the things she made were not only rare, but also tasted very good.

Lin Xiangxiang asked Aunt Quan to find a frying pan, smeared some clear oil on the frying pan, poured a little flour paste into the pan, boiled the whole pot in water, and then got out of the pot, and the thin and bright cold skin was ready.

Aunt Quan stood aside and did chores, adding fire from time to time, or handing over a bowl, her eyes full of surprise.

She thinks it's good to cook a gnocchi with flour on weekdays, let alone make this kind of food that she has never seen before.

After Lin Herb made all the cold skins, he mixed the oil and spicy seeds, cut the cold skins into strips one by one, poured in the oil and spicy seeds, and suddenly, the unique fragrance of the cold skin came out.

Aunt Quan looked at it in amazement: "This, this can be eaten?" ”

Lin Vanilla nodded, took chopsticks and let Aunt Quan taste it, Aunt Quan was not polite, put a piece in her mouth, and couldn't help nodding towards Lin Vanilla: "Yes, if this taste is sold at a stall, it will definitely attract a lot of people." ”

Lin Vanilla grinned and sneered: "Auntie didn't complain that I put too much oil." ”

In fact, there is not much oil in the cold skin at all, just reluctantly mixing the cold skin, but compared with the oil and water that Aunt Quan stir-fries on weekdays, it is too much.

"I, I." Aunt Quan shook her head and was about to speak, when Zhang Luo ran over and pulled her chopsticks. Aunt Quan and Lin Vanilla glanced at each other, and finally took a piece of cool skin and stuffed it into Zhang Luo's mouth.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and as soon as Lin Vanilla looked up, he saw Uncle Quan entering the house, and said anxiously: "Vanilla, you go into the house to hide, Lord Zhao is here." ”

Zhao Jiu is here again?

Before she had time to think about it, Aunt Quan had already dragged her into the house. In a moment, a deliberately suppressed voice came from outside, and then, Zhao Jiu's warm voice sounded at the right time: "Hard work, Uncle Quan." ”

Aunt Quan glanced at Lin Vanilla, pushed the door out, and glanced out through the small gap in the wooden door.

I saw that there were about a dozen people outside, among them, Zhao Jiuzhong, who was wearing a silver-white brocade robe, was hanging his head and patiently talking to the craftsmen.

This scene is very harmonious, if it weren't for the respectful and polite faces of the craftsmen, Lin Vanilla would have almost forgotten that he was the magistrate of Zhao County!
