It was already the end of the hour when I returned home, and Xia Li's speed was fast enough, and it took three and a half hours to go back and forth. Fortunately, Xia Shi hadn't come back yet, and she didn't have time to rest, so she quickly cleaned her face, changed her clothes and shoes, and took a handful of wild peppercorns to Hao's house to pick up Xia Ju.

The Hao family went to the field to harvest peanuts and just went home, and they all sat in the yard to rest.

Xia Ju was eating fragrant boiled peanuts with Dazhu. Seeing Xia Li coming, he ran over with a smile and hugged his sister's waist, pouting and saying cutely, "Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, I really want to." The next time my sister went to the mountains to pick wild peppercorns, she took me with her. ”

Xia Li smiled, "Okay." She poured the wild peppercorns into Hao Yunxiu's hand and thanked her.

Hao Yunxiu said with a smile, "Ju boy Sven understands etiquette, I wish Dazhu could learn more from him." ”

Mrs. Hao invited Xia Li to eat peanuts, Xia Li smiled, "No, I'll go back and cook the meal, my mother is tired for a day, and she can eat when she comes back." ”

Mrs. Hao smiled, "The girl is getting more and more capable." He also asked Aunt He to fill a basket of peanuts for Xia Li, and said, "Your grandmother is dead, your mother is busy all day, and she will not be willing to bring some peanuts home for your mother to eat." She always thinks that your mother has money and can spend her own money to buy it. I never thought that my daughter was busy all day, and it was my mother's intention to send some peanuts......"

"Mother, other people's affairs, hehe, it's hard to say." Uncle Hao interrupted Mrs. Hao's words with a smile.

Mrs. Hao muttered, "That's what it was." He didn't go on.

This old lady is so cute.

Xia Li smiled and thanked her, she was indeed hungry for this fresh peanut.

When I got home, the bird was still flapping its bright wings.

Xia Li took a large birdcage out of the house, loaded the birds into it, and filled the two small cups in the cage with rice and water respectively.

This birdcage is very large, and it was ordered by Xia Li at Carpenter Zhou's house before that, just to hold this kind of bird.

I found another pot, planted the chrysanthemums in it, and watered it.

Xia Ju liked the bird very much, and after watching it for a while, he still obediently went out to call back the seven hens in the family and put them in the chicken pen, and then went into the kitchen to help his sister light the fire.

Xiao Zhengtai's "cooing" sound of the chicken is decent, better and louder than Xia Li's cry. Calling chickens, lighting fires, and wiping dangdang's hair with a dry handkerchief are now the three best housework he has done.

Xia Li washed the rice and put it in the sand pot, went to the vegetable field to pick a handful of chili peppers, fried a chili dried tofu, and chicken soup was enough, and the rabbit would eat it tomorrow.

The two siblings were busy in the kitchen, Xia Shi came back, and Xia Shan came back with him.

Xia Shan is still leading a tall horse, smiling brightly and proudly. He met Xia on the way, so he came together.

Xia Li was a little cautious, and he should be at home at this time. She couldn't avoid it, so she could only smile and say, "The third uncle is back." Let's eat at my house, I'll burn the rabbit again, and I still have half a pot of wine at home. ”

Xia said angrily, "You went up to the mountains to hunt again?" ”

Xia Li said with a smile, "I didn't go to the high places, I just went around the low places, picked some wild peppercorns, dug up a flower, and shot a bird, and the hare was hunted." ”

Xia Shan tied his horse to the doorpost and looked at Dangdang curiously. said, "Yo, your dog is a Yanshan wolf dog, I knew I should have let Liu Gongzi see it." ”

Xia Li said, "Oh, this dog is called Yanshan Wolf Dog, I just knew." He added, "I wish this dog was a tiger, and we could earn five thousand taels of silver, and that would make a fortune." It's a pity that it has been coming to my house for more than half a month, since I know that it is not, why bother looking for trouble. ”

Xia Shan was right to think about it, and said a few words to Xia Ju, who saluted him, before he smiled at Xia Li, "Liu Gongzi asked me to bring you something rare, and he said thank you for making Lord Ye happy." After that, Lord Ye did not scold him again because of Huzi, nor did he drive him back to the capital. ”

As he spoke, he took out four round Dongdong from the package. He also said, "This is a friend of Lord Ye who bought it from Fanren, and said what is it called." The cooks cooked it, and they all said that it tasted similar to taro. There are still a few left, Liu Gongzi asked me to bring them to you. He said that it doesn't matter if it's delicious or not, it's a strange taste. ”

Oh my God, what kind of potato is this, it's obviously an artichoke, also called a potato, a potato.

Xia Li was so happy that he snatched the four potatoes over, and said incoherently excitedly, "Thank you Liu Gongzi, thank you...... Oh, he's such a nice guy, a great guy...... It's a good thing, it's a pity to eat it, I'm going to grow it. ”

A money-making golden avenue was placed in front of her without warning, she was a proper heroine in her life, and a string of silver ingots flashed in front of her eyes......

Xia Shan was surprised, "Lili also knows about sweet taro?" ”

Xia Li said casually, "Well, I saw a record in a miscellaneous book......"

Xia Shan said, "Potato is similar to taro, planting it, it's better to plant taro, at least know how to plant and harvest...... Oh, by the way, Liu Gongzi also specifically said that before boiling this kind of potato, you must cut the buds. ”

Xia Li smiled, she had eaten potatoes for so many years in her previous life, of course she knew that she had to cut the buds before cooking. She didn't say a word and ran into the kitchen to put the potatoes on the board. Thinking about it, I locked it in the cupboard again. also said to Xia Shi, who entered the kitchen, "Mother, this thing is precious, don't move it." ”

Xia smiled, "Okay, don't move your baby." And he said, "Those ugly bumps, can they really be grown?" ”

Xia Li said, "Well, plant it in the vegetable field first, and then buy more land to plant later." ”

Xia Shi felt that Xia Li was just a child playing around, he didn't even know how to grow ordinary crops, and he still planted something from the field.

The mother and daughter boiled the rabbit into the pot and left a rabbit leg for Dangdang to boil in plain water.

Maybe the military uniform worn by Xia Shan made Dangdang very good, and he came to Xia Shan's side from time to time. When Xia Li saw it, he quickly pulled it to the backyard and tied it up, and gently flicked it with a brain crash. He scolded, "You're stupid." My third uncle is familiar with your former master, so stay away from him. ”

Xia Li picked two yellow claws and a few eggplants in the vegetable field, and then made a yellow claw scrambled egg and mixed eggplant.

Xia Shan took Xia Ju's hand and looked at the bird in the cage and said, "This bird is so beautiful." I see that Liu Gongzi also raises a few birds, but they are not as good-looking as this. ”

Xia Li smiled, "This is what I saw in the mountains today and shot it down with a slingshot." Thinking about the benefits of Liu Gongzi's child, and the fact that he had been beaten and scolded a lot, he said, "Since Liu Gongzi likes beautiful birds, the third uncle will give it to Liu Gongzi." He gave me a potato, and I'll give it back. ”

Give him something good to put her at ease.

Xia Shan's head shook like a rattle, and he said again and again, "I can't help it, I can't help it, this bird is worth a lot of silver at a glance." Use it to exchange for those few potato, and you will suffer a loss, so you should sell it for money. ”
