Chapter 195: Where is the Wen Po better?
Putting the last drawer of pastries on the steamer, Xia Wanqing clapped her hands with satisfaction and said, "Okay, wait another quarter of an hour to eat, mother, you can taste it later, this is my new research." ”
"yes, definitely." Yao Lan smiled lightly, looking at Xia Wanqing's face, she didn't know what she suddenly thought, and she wanted to say something.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Xia Wanqing keenly sensed the change in her mood, frowned slightly, and said.
"After all, you are with Bai Shan now, so it stands to reason that I shouldn't say these things, but I'm afraid that when I don't say it, it will damage your reputation......"
Listening to Yao Lan's somewhat complicated tone and saying these words, Xia Wanqing felt a little confused, what did it have to do with her reputation and Ji Baishan? Could it be that Ji Mu's group is doing demons again?
Sure enough, Yao Lan lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips and said: "You can be said to be a great benefactor to our Sanxi Village now, and our villagers in Sanxi Village are grateful to you, but Ji Mu's group of people is indeed too much, and they actually use your name to make a fortune, causing the village to be restless." ”
Hearing Yao Lan's words, Xia Wanqing hooked the corners of her lips slightly, she knew that this matter had something to do with Ji's mother, seeing Yao Lan's appearance, Xia Wanqing sighed slightly and said: "Mother, what's so angry about this, does she mean that everyone in our village believes it?" ”
"Believe it or not, I'm just afraid that if it goes on like this, it will have some more or less impact on you." Yao Lan was stunned by Xia Wanqing's words, and then shook her head slightly, but there was obviously a worried look on her face.
"If only the people in the village didn't believe it? Okay, you can rest assured about this matter, I'll naturally deal with it in two days, they won't be able to jump for long. ”
As early as when Xia Wanqing was making tea trees, she already knew about Ji's mother's behavior, and originally thought that it would be okay if she restrained herself, but she didn't expect to think highly of her.
It's just a matter of finding an opportunity to punish her for a long time, after all, she is Ji Baishan's nominal mother, besides, a person like Ji's mother, just afraid that a scare will make her remember it for a long time.
Yao Lan saw Xia Wanqing's determined look, and she also knew that she probably had an idea in her heart for a long time, so this heart could be put down, and she believed that Xia Wanqing could handle this matter.
The two of them talked for a while, and Xia Wanqing's pastry on the fire was almost there, and when she took out the pastry and put it in the basket and walked out of the kitchen, she saw Ji Baishan walking over with sweat on her cheeks.
When she saw Xia Wanqing, she smiled slightly, then turned her head to Yao Lan and said, "Mother, I just saw that there was not enough firewood at home, so I chopped some firewood, and it was all piled up there." ”
Ji Baishan said, and pointed to a direction in the courtyard, and the two of them looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a pile of chopped firewood neatly piled up in the corner of the courtyard.
Yao Lan showed a smile on her face: "I was just trying to let your father chop some firewood when he came back, since this is the case, it will trouble you." ”
"No trouble, no trouble." Ji Baishan smiled, looking a little embarrassed.
"Alright, go wash it up, and come over and try the pastries later." Seeing that Ji Baishan's face was black and white, and he was about to become a flower cat, Xia Wanqing smiled a little helplessly, and said to Ji Baishan, and he walked towards the house with pastries.
By the time Ji Baishan returned to the house after washing, Xia Wanqing and Yao Lan were already sitting there eating and talking about other things.
When she saw Ji Baishan, Yao Lan smiled lightly and brought Ji Baishan a cup of tea, pushed the pastry to Ji Baishan, and then said: "By the way, Wanqing's child is estimated to be about to give birth, have you two found a good midwife?" ”
When the words fell, both of them were slightly stunned for a moment, and then shook their heads.
Xia Wanqing has been busy with other things in the past few days, forgetting that the ancient midwifery still needed a stable woman, although Ji Baishan knew, but he didn't know which stable woman to invite, so he was going to consult Wu Jinyu in the past two days, but today he returned to Sanxi Village with Xia Wanqing, so he put it on hold.
Looking at the appearance of the two people, Yao Lan also guessed the answer, and glanced at Xia Wanqing's stomach with some tears in her eyes, and she didn't know whether such a pair of fathers and mothers was good or bad.
"Mother, where did you say that the delivery skills of Wen Po in the nearby ten miles and eight villages are better?" Ji Baishan has also made up for his knowledge in the past few days, and he also knows that if one of them is not good when delivering babies, he is afraid that the big and small ones will not be able to keep them.
"I heard that there is a Wenpo surnamed Wang in the neighboring village of our neighboring village, who is very famous for her midwifery skills, and everyone in our village who has a child to be born has to go to her."
Yao Lan thought about it, and remembered that there was a stable woman in the neighboring village, but it was a little far away, and she didn't invite her at that time, but now Ji Baishan asked her before she remembered.
"A neighboring village in a neighboring village? Shall I go and bring her back? Ji Baishan also thought of this layer, it would definitely be too late to invite her when the time came, it would be better to invite her to live in his own house in advance, so that she would have a good time to take care of her.
"That's fine." Yao Lan nodded and said.
Hearing Yao Lan's words, Ji Baishan's mind had already begun to think quickly, the sooner this matter was, the better, otherwise it would be too late.
After making up their minds, several people talked for a while before leaving Xia's house, preparing to go back to the teahouse to clean up and invite a stable woman tomorrow.
After walking out of Xia's house, a villager came to meet him, and when he saw Xia Wanqing, a smile appeared on his face: "Miss Wanqing, go back to the teahouse." ”
"Hmm." Xia Wanqing nodded, and also recognized that the one in front of her was an uncle who was still close to their family, so she handed him the pastries she took out from the Xia family and said, "Uncle Liu, these are some pastries I made, you can take them back and give them to your grandson to eat." ”
Hearing Xia Wanqing's words, Uncle Liu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, this can't be done." ”
"Oh, Uncle Liu, you can accept it, you have helped our family for so many years, this is regarded as a little respect for me, not enough to worry about." Xia Wanqing said and stuffed the pastry in her hand into Uncle Liu's hand.
Ji Baishan also smiled lightly and said, "Yes, Uncle Liu, take it quickly, this is our heart." ”
Seeing that the two of them said this, Uncle Liu was a little embarrassed to put away the pastries handed to him by Xia Wanqing and said, "Then Uncle Liu is here to thank you in advance, you don't know that my grandson says that he wants to eat your family's pastries all day long, and he doesn't listen to what he says." ”
looked at Uncle Liu's somewhat helpless appearance. Xia Wanqing smiled lightly and said, "It's normal for children to love sweets, I'll bring you some when I have the chance." ”
"This is unbelievable, the pastries you make are very precious, these ten miles and eight villages, when it comes to the pastries you make, it is full of praise." Uncle Liu hurriedly waved his hand to signal that he couldn't ask for it anymore.
Hearing Uncle Liu's words, Xia Wanqing nodded with satisfaction, the pastries she made were highly respected in modern times, not to mention coming to this ancient world, although the materials were not very complete, but the things made were almost the same.
Judging from the sales in the past few days, some pastries from some old shops that have been open for more than ten years are almost unsold
When the two of them got into the carriage, Xia Wanqing said to Ji Baishan: "Are you going to go to that stable woman tomorrow?" ”
Judging from Ji Baishan's performance just now, she can also see one or two, Ji Baishan can't calm down as soon as he meets her, and the most likely thing is to go to that stable woman tomorrow.
"Well, it's almost time for you to give birth, so it's better to prepare in advance." Ji Baishan nodded, looking at Xia Wanqing's bulging belly, with a little tenderness in his expression.
"Then I'll go with you." After thinking about it, Xia Wanqing raised her head and said to Ji Baishan, making Ji Baishan slightly stunned.
"What are you going to do with me? You can't move right now, so wait at home for me to come back. Ji Baishan glanced at Xia Wanqing's stomach with some concern.
Other pregnant women are afraid that it will be difficult to walk with such a big belly, but Xia Wanqing usually doesn't seem to feel this child, although Xia Wanqing is a little different from other pregnant women, but he doesn't want Xia Wanqing to take risks.
Xia Wanqing shook her head: "I want to go with you, besides, let her see when my child will be born when the time comes, and let her make preparations, so as not to be in a hurry." ”
After listening to Xia Wanqing's words, Ji Baishan thought for a while and felt that it made sense, so he compromised a little helplessly: "Okay, you remember to pay attention to safety when the time comes." ”
Xia Wanqing responded, and quietly showed a smile, you must know that if she stays in the teahouse all day, she will definitely get sick, how can she not seize such an opportunity to go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers!
After the two of them had discussed, they walked towards the carriage, ready to go back to the city to pack up their things and go to the stable woman.
At this time, in the teahouse in the north of the city, a young man in gray clothes was diligently wiping the table, and there was a careful sweeping on the other side, but if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find that these two people had been observing the surroundings.
After a while, the young man who was wiping the table made an excuse for a stomachache and slipped into the hut, and after a while another sweeper came over.
"How are you? Any news? Li Qing was the one who wiped the table, and when he saw Wang Yan coming over at this time, he couldn't wait to ask.
Wang Yan shook his head a little disappointed: "I've been here for a few days, and I haven't found anything." ”
