Chapter 4 Leaving the Phoenix

"Yo, where to steal the good things!" Xu Chenghua looked at the rare pastry, and was not embarrassed at all to take a piece and taste it: "You should be filial to your grandmother!" ”

Xu Chenghua entered the door with the pastry, Wang Xiaoshan stood there, and he was about to cry aggrieved, but he still held back his tears and slowly returned home unwillingly.

Of course, Cheng Qing didn't know that the pastries he gave to Xiaoshan had entered other people's stomachs, and now his heart was still going to the town to buy small saplings and come back to plant, and he had thought about what trees to plant, so he planted plum trees.

Cheng Qing likes plum blossoms very much, he prefers pastries made of plum blossoms, Xiaoyun is skillful at making pastries, and he believes that he will eat delicious dim sum this winter.

However, he still has a few things to think about before he goes to town.

It's like what he's going to do.

Living in a mountain village is not as comfortable as living in a town, after all, it is far from the bustling town, Wangjia Village is indeed remote, and it is not easy to go to the town. In the past, if you wanted to eat and drink, you could just send the servants at home to buy and buy it, but now, I am afraid that I have to do it myself.

Cheng Qing inquired that the livelihood of Wangjia Village is generally two, one is to go to the field to grow grain, and the other is to go up the mountain to find wild food to sell.

Cheng Qing didn't even think about going up the mountain to find wild food, so there was only one way left to go to the ground. Although Cheng Qing doesn't worry about food or clothing, he always wants to integrate into the life of the village, no matter what, it is not difficult to buy acres of land to grow some food.

Thinking about it, Cheng Qing inexplicably developed a sense of confidence in himself, he walked around the yard, his mind was full of thinking about what was most suitable to plant.

But before you think about what to plant, the most important thing is to buy a piece of land.

"Xiaoyun, is the Li Chang's family back?"

"Childe, I was washing clothes a few days ago, and I heard from the aunt next to me that I wanted to come back in two days tomorrow."

"Two days after tomorrow..."Cheng Qing thought for a while and said: "Then let's go to the town tomorrow, the food at home is almost gone, I want to plant plum trees in the yard, then I have to buy some plum saplings and come back." We're going to visit the mayor's house, so we're going to have to buy gifts..."

On the afternoon of the second day, Cheng Qing and Xiaoyun went out to the town together, because Cheng Qing was going to go together, Xiaoyun found a carriage a day earlier, and as soon as lunch was over, Cheng Qing and Xiaoyun got into the carriage.

The town was as lively as ever, and the shouts at the doors of various shops were continuous, and Cheng Qing felt that his ears were filled with all kinds of sounds as soon as he got off the carriage, and he didn't react for a moment.

Xiaoyun was stunned when he saw Childe, and smiled: "Isn't Childe used to it?" ”

"It's true, I'm not used to being noisy in just a few days."

"Then why don't you find a teahouse to rest first?"

"No need, it's better to buy good things early if you have this time, let's go home early."

Cheng Qing looked at it and saw that there was a seed store in front of this alley, he pointed to the store and said, "Let's go separately, there is a seed store there, I'll go and see the seeds, you go and buy the things to bring when you go to the chief's house..."

"Okay, listen to Childe's arrangement."

In fact, as long as you ask the neighbors in the village, they will give these things, after all, they are not very valuable, but Cheng Qing is not embarrassed to trouble them, and it doesn't cost much money, so he doesn't owe that favor.

As soon as Cheng Qing entered the store, the shopkeeper immediately greeted him, and said with a smile on his face: "What does this son want?" Our store has the most complete seeds in the whole town, and if we don't have the seeds in our store, I'm afraid the whole street will be gone! ”

Cheng Qing looked around the store, there were indeed a lot of things, all the seeds were marked with names, and thousands of good seedlings were placed up and down.

"What's the best thing to grow right now?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "I'm afraid this son is joking, the most suitable thing to plant at the moment is seedlings..."

Seedling? Cheng Qing never thought about it, the process of seedlings from the beginning of planting to harvesting the final rice is cumbersome and energy-consuming, and Cheng Qing and Xiaoyun may not have a good harvest even if they are tired.

"In addition to seedlings, it is easier to grow and do not require too much energy."

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes, knowing that the son in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person's son, and maybe buying seeds and planting land was just a plaything for fun.

"Then, I'm afraid it's the most suitable for Gongzi to grow cabbage."

"Kale?" Cheng Qing remembered the cabbage he sometimes saw by accident, and said curiously: "Cabbage is good to grow?" ”

"Cabbage is tenacious by nature, and as long as it is watered in time, it can grow well." The shopkeeper enthusiastically said: "Cabbage can not only be eaten, but also used as medicine, and the son doesn't need too much care to buy it back, and there will be a good harvest." ”

Since they all said so, Cheng Qing nodded: "Then cabbage." ”

"Oh, okay!" The shopkeeper smiled and wrapped Cheng Qing with seeds: "Does Childe need anything else?" ”

"Do you have plum saplings at home?"

"Yes, in the backyard, Childe will come with me to take a look?"

"No need, just take it together."

"Childe is refreshing, wait here for a while, I'll go and get plum saplings for Childe."

Taking advantage of the gap when the shopkeeper went to get the plum sapling, Cheng Qing walked to the shop on the side and bought some small pastries, and when the shopkeeper came back, Cheng Qing was sitting on a chair in the store, savoring the pastries.

"Childe, everything is ready, a total of thirty dollars."

Cheng Qing paid the money, took the things he bought and went out.

At the very end of this alley, a plainly dressed woman kept looking at Cheng Qing, and as soon as Cheng Qing came out of the store, she shrank into the alley to prevent Cheng Qing from noticing.

It wasn't until she couldn't see Cheng Qing anymore that the woman walked out of the alley, walked quickly to the seed shop where Cheng Qing had just stayed, looked at it silently for a while, and then walked away.

On the second floor of the largest teahouse in Cheng'an Town, a pair of people with outstanding appearance and extraordinary demeanor were holding the child in their arms, carefully teasing him, as if they were afraid that he would cry.

"Little birds don't need to be so careful, Joan doesn't cry so easily..."Next to Shuang'er stood a man dressed in plain clothes, the man was large, and he didn't look like a weak scholar.

These two are Lifeng, the eldest prince of Liguo, and his husband Hu Min, who are praised by the people who have left the country, and that child is the child of Lifeng and Hu Min who has just turned one year, Hu Qiaoan.

When he left the country in chaos, Hu Min was the eldest prince to save the country from fire and water, and Lifeng was the person who bravely stood up to preside over the overall situation when the emperor was ill.

"Then why don't you hug it?" Lifeng muttered: "You don't know how afraid I am of bumping into him..."

"It's the little bird who complained a few days ago that the child is not close to you, hug him more, and the child will be close to you, you are always afraid of not hugging him, how can the child get close to you?"

"Who made him that small?"

Hu Min smiled and said: "That child is growing up step by step, how can there be a child who grows up all at once?" ”

Hu Qiaoan is actually very well-behaved, she doesn't like to cry or make trouble, she looks at you with a pair of big wet eyes, and she looks really well-behaved.

Lifeng carefully dipped the spoon in some water and put it in Hu Qiaoan's mouth, Hu Qiaoan chirped his mouth, waving his hands, looking excited.

"Why hasn't the little mandarin duck come back yet? How long does it take to buy some pastries? Lifeng was really a little tired, and Hu Min could see it, so he took his son into his arms and skillfully patted his back to let the child find the most comfortable place to rest.

"I'm afraid that there are too many people in the place where I bought it, right? Are you hungry? ”

Said Cao Cao Cao arrived, as soon as Hu Min's words fell, Xiao Yuan hurriedly walked up from downstairs, Lifeng looked at her with empty hands, and asked, "Why did you come back empty-handed?" Sold out? ”

Xiao Yuanyu shook his head and hurriedly said, "Just now, the slave maid met Cheng Gongzi on the way to buy pastries!" ”

"Cheng Gongzi?" Lifeng's memory has dropped a little recently: "Who?" ”

"Cheng Qing Cheng Gongzi."

"Cheng Qing?" Li Feng's eyes widened in surprise, after so many years, there has been no news of him, and now he actually ran into him: "What about others?" Can you come along? ”

Cheng Qing and Lifeng have a long history of origin, the two seem to be friends and enemies, both are twin children and sympathize with each other, after the events of the year, Cheng Qing disappeared from the capital, he had a lot of things and couldn't send him a ride, which also made Lifeng very sorry, I didn't expect to meet today, if the two met, I don't know if it will be another scene.

"No, the slave saw that he was in a hurry, and he didn't bother if he was afraid that something was wrong." Xiao Yuan said: "Do you want the slave maid to ask Cheng Gongzi to come over for a talk?" ”

“… No need, if you meet, you can still say a few words, so I'm afraid it would be embarrassing to invite him over. Lifeng teased the child in Hu Min's arms, and said with a smile: "Since we will definitely be able to meet in the future, it is not too late to catch up with the old days, Qiao An, don't you say?" ”

Hu Qiaoan just giggled, completely unaware of what his father was talking about.

Cheng Qing returned to the place where the carriage was parked, Xiao Yun had already arrived, Xiao Yun took the things in Cheng Qing's hand and put them on the carriage, and the two of them went back to Wangjia Village.

As soon as Cheng Qing went home, he planned to plant the saplings first, he dug up the soil first, then put the saplings down, watered some water, closed the soil, and used a shovel to beat the soil around the saplings tightly, until the saplings stood upright, Cheng Qing put down the shovel with satisfaction.

As soon as it was finished, Xiaoyun helped Cheng Qing to the bath water and asked Cheng Qing to wash all the dirt off his body, and after Cheng Qing came out after washing, Xiaoyun told Cheng Qing that the chief would come back a moment early.

"Then let's visit after dinner in the afternoon."

"Okay." Xiaoyun nodded: "Childe, lunch is ready, we can eat." ”

After the two had lunch, they hurriedly brought gifts to visit the chief's house.

In addition to knowing the elder, Cheng Qinghao wanted to ask if there was still land in Wangjia Village that could be used for him to plant.

"By the way, you bring the pastries I bought, the elder and Wang Xiaoshan's family are close, and you can send them to the child when the time comes."

"Huh."
