Zhao Mo, who returned home, was cold, leaned against the closed courtyard door and took a deep breath several times.

At this time, Zhao Rong and Zhao Li, who had already cooked the meal, heard the movement and ran out of the kitchen quickly. What happened to you? ”

As if a voice had rescued her from the abyss, her eyes gradually warmed up, she put down the bamboo basket in her hand, looked up and smiled at the two: "I'm fine." ”

She paused and asked, "Is there nothing going on at home?" ”

Zhao Rong glanced at his sister suspiciously, and made sure that she was really fine, so he said, "Aunt Meng came over in the afternoon and brought a bag of dolls that had just been made." Later, when I came back from school, as soon as I got home, I saw the second aunt squeezing open Sister Li's door, and I kicked her out. ”

Zhao Li on the side nodded heavily and echoed: "The second aunt was fierce just now!" When I heard that my sister was not at home, I had to break into the door, but fortunately my brother was back, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to stop her! ”

Breaking into other people's homes sounds a bit suspicious, but some people have to think that they are all their own people, even if they are separated, they should be their own family, and what they want, just go to the door and get it.

Just like when he was sick in bed before, He dared to come to the door to move things with an excuse. If it was Zhao Mo in the past, he would not say anything even if he was afraid of a loss, after all, he was a second aunt no matter what he said.

She touched her siblings' heads and said, "You're doing the right thing." ”

She looked around at the empty yard, wondering if she should buy a dog to take care of the yard, so that no one would dare to break into the house......

Early the next morning, she was going to Li Yuan's house to feed the cattle with the cut cow grass. As soon as she was halfway through, there was a sound of horses' hooves behind her, and she quickly stopped and stepped aside.

The horse galloped past, carrying a gust of wind. She closed her eyes and shook the dust, and it wasn't long before she heard another hissing in her ears.

A deep, deep voice sounded, "It's you." ”

Zhao Mo frowned and slowly opened his eyes, he was the benefactor who saved him from the bear's claws!

She happily took two steps forward: "Benefactor? ”

Song Anyang sat on a tall horse, with a dignified body, resolute and mighty, with his head down, looking at her with deep eyes. A vague smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, adding a touch of uninhibition to his sharply contoured face.

"You live here?"

Zhao Mo turned his head and pointed to the small courtyard not far behind him, and smiled at him: "The benefactor is free to remember to come to my house to drink a glass of water." ”

Song Anyang glanced at it from afar, secretly remembered the location in his heart, and responded casually.

At this time, the guard behind him stepped forward and whispered something in his ear, and Song Anyang muttered almost imperceptibly for a moment before raising his eyes to look at her: "Have there been any outsiders in the village recently?" ”

Zhao Mo thought for a while, shook his head and said honestly: "Last time, a team of black-clothed guards entered the village to inspect once, and this time you entered the village, no one else came. ”

Recently, Li County has been very unstable, and she is curious about what happened. But he also knew that the more he knew about some things, the faster he would die, so he stopped asking about other things.

Song Anyang nodded slightly.

She suddenly remembered that she had met him at the door of the pharmacy a few days ago, and asked hesitantly, "That ......?"

Thinking that she had something to say, Song Anyang and his guards all looked at her intently.

Zhao Mo secretly glanced at his waist embarrassedly, but still asked, "How did you look at your illness last time?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Song Anyang's face suddenly changed. Even Shaobai behind him felt strange, his young master was sick? Look at the black face, is there any serious illness that you have?

After a while, there was an almost gritted answer: "I'm not sick." ”

Looking at the figure that looked like a deserted escape, Zhao Mo shrugged, it's not good to avoid medical treatment! What's more, isn't it a kidney deficit? He's still so young, isn't it enough to make up for it?

Shaobai thinks the same as her, although he still doesn't know what illness his young master has.

"Master, are you sick?" Shaobai caught up with Song Anyang, who was running fast, with a puzzled face. "Why don't you let Mr. Liancheng come and take a look?"

Song Anyang's face stiffened, and he said in a deep voice: "No need, I'm not sick!" ”

"But ......"

He was a little embarrassed, and his words were dignified: "I don't know if I'm sick or not?" You don't have to say more! It's important to hurry, let's go! ”

There is a deep mountain in front of it, and it is difficult for horses to walk, so they can only get off their horses and climb up on foot.

Shaobai, who followed him, was very puzzled, the more the young master squeaked like this, the more it meant that there was a problem! It seems that Mr. Liancheng still has to come over......

Because the Li family's father and son helped him plough the fields, Zhao Mo had packed their meals at noon in the past few days.

At this time, under the big tree, Li Shan and Li Yuan sat opposite each other, and in front of them was the food sent by Zhao Mo. A pot full of white rice plus a meat and a vegetable, as soon as the lid is lifted, the aroma is immediately tangy, which arouses the appetite of the two!

After eating, several people sat down under the big tree to rest.

Spring ploughing began, and the fields were very lively. After spring ploughing, it is to raise seedlings and transplant seedlings, and Zhao Mo plans to hire some short-term workers to do these things.

After she said her intentions, Li Yuan said without hesitation, "Why do you bother to invite others? I'll help you plant it all! ”

Zhao Mo shook her head, she didn't want to trouble him anymore, after all, he had two acres of land in his own house.

"No need, Uncle and you still have to hunt, and it's hard to help me farm when I have a rare break."

She knew that if she agreed, they would not take her wages. She refused his offer without thinking about it, and she didn't want to owe him favors over and over again.

Li Yuan seemed to have thought of this, so he had to say: "Then have you thought about who to hire for short-term work?" ”

"I'll go into the city in a few days and buy a dog to come back and see the house."

"Dogs?"

"Come and see home!" As if thinking of something, Zhao Mo looked at Li Shan and asked, "Uncle, you often go into the mountain, I don't know if there are any anials in the mountain now?" ”

"Octagonal?"

Li Shan looked at her suspiciously: "You want to make spices?" ”

Zhao Mo was stunned: "Could it be that star anise is a spice?" ”

"......" Li Shan was also stunned by her question, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

Li Yuan, who was still on the side, understood her better and asked, "What are you doing with octagonal?" ”

Zhao Mo explained: "I see that most of the shops sell cinnamon fennel, but I never see anyone selling star anise, so I wonder if it is not yet ripe." ”

She paused, then continued, "I made bacon before, and I always felt that it didn't taste right. If you put some star anise, it will taste much better. ”

The first time I made the bacon tasted really good, but the taste of the bacon was all supported by the aroma of orange peel, and I always felt a little worse in my mouth.

When she did it for the second time, she happened to go to the city, so she bought spices such as pepper fennel, but she didn't find cinnamon and star anise, so she had to finish it, and the taste was different from the first time, although Zhao Rong and Zhao Li liked it very much.

"Star anise can still be used as dried meat?" Li Shan's face was full of surprise.

This time it was Zhao Mo's turn to be a little unsure of what to say.

"It's better to ...... Next time Uncle goes into the mountains to pick some back? If you have cinnamon, bring some by the way, and I'll give it a try. ”
