Chapter 162: Feed the Koi

Remember [34 Chinese Network .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

For the hunger disease suffered by Liu's mother, Ge Zhichuan tried his best, I don't know how many classics he read, but he still didn't find a way to deal with it, but fortunately, he made pills with spiritual spring water, as long as Liu's mother eats one pill before meals every day, she can protect her spleen and stomach, and she will not hurt her body because of overeating.

The pills needed a lot of spring liquid, and there wasn't much stock left on Ge Zhichuan's side, so he hurriedly ran to Pan'er and asked for two bottles of spiritual spring water.

Pan'er didn't say anything polite to Ge Zhichuan, and exchanged the spiritual spring water for the prescription, after all, there are many kinds of recipes for brewing medicinal liquor in Old Man Ge's hands, if he can get more, Rong'anfang and Chenjia Restaurant will definitely make more money.

After getting the recipe for peach blossom wine, the peach blossoms in the waste village bloomed, and the tenants in the village knew that the lady wanted to make wine, so they took a thin bamboo pole, knocked down all the pale pink peach petals, and put them in the back basket. A basket of peach blossoms can be exchanged for twenty yuan, although it is not much, but those young daughters-in-law are still quite willing to do this work, they do not have much strength when they start, and they will not hurt the branches when they knock down the buds, which makes Pan'er very satisfied.

The best osmanthus wine sold in the border city at the beginning, but in terms of beauty and beauty, the effect of osmanthus is not as strong as that of peach blossoms, just because it was not the season when peach blossoms bloomed, Pan'er used osmanthus as the main ingredient.

Pan'er found a few careful daughters-in-law and asked them to mix the petals with the best spirits according to the requirements of the recipe, and slowly precipitate the flower oil and mix it in the wine, the wine turned into a faint pink, although it has not been brewed with spiritual spring water, but this light aroma is really charming.

The women who make peach blossoms every day have this rich fragrance of flowers on their hands, which lingers on their bodies for several days, but saves the cost of incense powder.

The woman who brewed peach blossom wine, Pan'er had also seen it, in addition to the tenants living in the abandoned village, there were also Wan and her younger sister Luo.

Wan Shi reconciled and divorced his own man before, and married Zhou Zhuangtou a few years ago.

Speaking of Zhou Zhuangtou's age is not young, he has been busy in the abandoned village all these years, and there is no one around him who knows the cold and the hot, and now there is Wan to take care of him, and the small life is much more moisturized than before.

Pan'er also saw Zhou Zhuang for the first time recently, and found that the person was a little fatter than before, with a ruddy complexion, and he was secretly happy when he had nothing to do.

The people under her are doing well, and Pan'er is also happy in her heart, so she sent a hundred taels of silver to Zhou Zhuangtou's house, although it is not much, but it is also a little bit of her heart.

At present, there are a lot of places where Pan'er spends money, not only the huge waste village needs her to operate, there is also a Salesian Bureau in the border city, although the Xiongnu outside the border have negotiated peace with the great cause, but the continuous war has caused an indelible wound to the people, but it is not just a year can be calmed, if there is no Salesian Bureau, I don't know how many wandering beggars will be on the street, the summer is fine, just under the bridge, in the temple can find a place to stay. But if it comes to the winter when the water is dripping into ice, even if the thickest leather jacket is worn, the cold air still penetrates into the body, and the strong adult man can't withstand this torture, let alone those immature children?

If you want to maintain the Salesian Bureau, you have to invest a lot of money in it.

In fact, just relying on Rong'an Fang and Chenjia Restaurant, the silver earned is enough, but Pan'er really doesn't like to live this kind of stretched life, so she ponders open source.

She thought about it for two days, and asked people to get the gold essence stone in the warehouse and the cinnabar ore brought back from the border city into the house, and shook the snuffbox under her nose, and the bean-sized tears crackled down, and the spiritual spring water meandered down like a stream.

Hurriedly put the spring water into the wooden basin, the basin itself put cool well water, and a piece of gold essence stone, soaked in the water with the spiritual spring, only to see that the gold essence stone slowly became smaller, but the clear blue became more and more intense.

Pan'er's eyes were hazy, she took out a handkerchief and wiped her red and swollen eyes, looked at the ore in the basin, and couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth.

The gold essence and cinnabar stone were all stored in the barn, this ore is poisonous, although it is not harmful to contact it for a short time, but it cannot be shared with people.

These valuable things were put in the warehouse, and there were four guards guarding the door together, and the four of them were extremely skilled in martial arts, and they couldn't even fly a fly in, which made Pan'er feel a little relieved.

The days went by day by day, and soon it was April.

The weather is getting warmer, someone sent a batch of koi seedlings to the Dingbei Hou Mansion, the color is so good-looking, although Pan'er does not understand the appreciation, but also knows that the koi is worth a lot, after all, this thing means auspicious, the larger the body size, the better the color of the pattern on the body, the higher the value.

However, looking at the fish fry in the pond that were only the size of an adult's palm, Pan'er couldn't help but pout her lips and asked Luan Yu to get some rice.

A bottle of spiritual spring water came to the porcelain bowl, and the rice was completely soaked, probably because the koi fish had spirituality, and they could feel what was beneficial to themselves, and frantically rushed to the railing where Pan'er was, the red and white bright patch, there were hundreds, Luan Yu watched from the side, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment for a while.

The fair-skinned jade hand picked up the cooked rice and sprinkled it directly into the pool.

The koi fish are like crazy, they have crossed out of the water, wanting to compete for food, the lucky ones can eat a grain of rice with spiritual spring water, and the unlucky ones are knocked aside by the same kind, and there is no chance to grab food.

When the bowl of rice was all at the bottom, he took out the Jinpa and wiped his hands carefully.

There was a small table in front of her, on which were a teapot and a porcelain plate, the size of a black pearl was like a dragon's eye, and when she bit into her mouth, the rich fruity aroma suddenly erupted from the thin peel, and the taste was really not bad.

Speaking of which, cherries like black pearls originally grew in the land of Sichuan and Chongqing, and when they were transplanted to the abandoned village, Pan'er didn't expect it to produce fruit so quickly, and even the taste was sweeter than that transported from Sichuan and Chongqing, and the taste was not bad at all.

It's a pity that the yield of black pearls is really not high, recently it is the season to eat cherries, Zhou Zhuangtou sends a basket of black pearls just picked from the branches to Rong'an Fang every day, obviously this thing is very expensive, one or two silver can buy a small bowl, but within a quarter of an hour, it is all sold out.

I don't know how many people in the capital are not bad for money, but the black pearls of Shu are difficult to transport to the capital, even if a small amount can be transported every year, they are all sent to the hands of dignitaries, even if ordinary people have a lot of property, they can't see this kind of rarity.

But since the abolition of the black pearl in the village, Rong'an Fang has more of this fresh food, most of the people have not seen this kind of sauce purple cherry, at first did not dare to eat, and then there are knowledgeable goods, tasted the taste of black pearl, immediately fell in love with this fruit, if it is not for the money in the hand is not enough, are eager to wrap that basket round, directly to the home, to the family to taste.

The black pearls are only sold in the morning, and some guests come late, and find that there is nothing left in the basket containing the black pearls, only a few lonely cherry stalks, regret it, and secretly decide that they must come early tomorrow, and all this fresh food in the province has been bought by others.

A few days ago, the Dai family and his wife also returned to the capital, and Pan'er had a good relationship with her, so Luan Yu sent two jars of nectar and a basket of black pearls.

Dai Shi is pregnant, her appetite is not as good as before, she is raised by honey water every day, and the fetus in her belly grows up safely and soundly, and now she is a lot plump, looking nearly ten years younger.

The same thing Pan'er also sent to the Zhongyong Marquis's mansion, because the old man loves wine, Pan'er also specially sent Nanguo pear wine and several other medicinal wines.

These drinks are mixed with a lot of spiritual springs, and people with strong bodies and bones may not have any obvious feelings when they drink them, but like the kind of old man who is approaching the end of his life, his body has begun to weaken in all aspects, and the aura in the wine is like life, spreading from the stomach pouch to the limbs.

Pan'er ate most of the black pearls on a plate, and saw a maid hurrying over, first blessed her body, and then spoke:

"Madam, Doctor Ge is in the main hall at the moment, and I want to see you."

Hearing this, Pan'er couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and walked directly to the main hall.

Ge Zhichuan is not a minus person, as soon as he saw Pan'er coming, his eyes were full of joy.

"Madame, I have finally found a cure for my hunger!"

Taking Ge Zhichuan's unconcealable excitement into his eyes, Pan'er raised her eyebrows and asked, "How to treat it?" ”

"Before, I checked Liu's mother's pulse, and I knew that she had a hungry insect hidden in her belly, and the amount of food in this thing was amazing, and she liked to eat meat.

Thinking of a big living person hiding a worm in his stomach, the goosebumps on Pan'er's body were about to pop up: "Then what's the solution?" ”

"As long as the hungry insects are drawn out, the symptoms of the willow mother can be cured without medicine, and the thing that leads to the hungry insects is the deer breast."

"Deer breast?"

Deer breast is pickled venison jerky, Hou Fuzhong did get some venison before, but it was not marinated, and it was eaten directly into the stomach at that time.

"Wouldn't it be enough to let people go into the mountains and catch a wild deer?"

"If you only need venison, the little old man doesn't have to come to see Mrs. Yet, the requirements for pickling deer breast are extremely high, and a woman with aura must do it herself, add spiritual springs to the venison, and only after marinating can the hungry insects be drawn out."

Pan'er is not stupid, Ge Zhichuan's words have been said to this, where is there any reason she doesn't understand?

"Just let me cook, right?"

Ge Zhichuan nodded.

"When the venison is brought back, I'll do it myself."

Now that Xiaobao has worshipped Mr. Liu as a teacher, if she can make Liu's mother better, it will be a good thing for Xiaobao, and she is naturally very interested.

That night, when the little woman was treating Chu Liang, she mentioned it to the man, and the man responded to the matter very happily, and within a few days, she carried a live deer directly to Pan'er.

The day in April was not too hot, Pan'er looked at Chu Liang, who was sweating profusely, and then looked at the wild deer that was constantly tossing on his shoulder, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Asked the man to put the wild deer down, Pan'er sent someone to call Ge Zhichuan, and according to his instructions, took a piece of meat with the most aura on the wild deer - deer breast, this piece of meat is close to the heart, just cut off, the strong smell of blood went straight to the nose, Pan'er couldn't help frowning, put the venison into the sea bowl, took out the porcelain bottle, and poured some spiritual spring water into it.

The process of marinating venison is not simple, in addition to marinating it with various seasonings, it is necessary to add medicinal herbs prepared by Katsujigawa.

All of these herbs were ground into powder and smeared on the venison, black and mushy, I thought that the smell would definitely not be good, but the herbs and spices were mixed together, and it actually formed an indescribable aroma.

Pan'er was serving the venison while pondering asking Ge Zhichuan to hand over the recipe for concocting the medicinal powder.

This kind of medicinal powder is not very important to Ge Zhichuan, after all, this thing only has the effect of seasoning, and has no effect of curing diseases and saving people, even if it is given to Pan'er, it is not a big deal.

The deer breast hung under the eaves and hung for half a month, and it was finally done.

Pan'er took the venison, got into the carriage, and rushed to the direction of Liu's house with Ge Zhichuan and Chu Liang.

Mr. Liu had already gotten the news, and when he heard that General Dingbei had brought his wife over, he hurriedly greeted him and brought him to the main hall.

Because the deer breast must be cooked by Pan'er's hands, even if Mr. Liu is full of shame and does not want to trouble the guests, but for the sake of his mother's life, he can only wronged the general's wife.

Pan'er entered the kitchen of the Liu family, the people had already made a fire, she peeled off the thick layer of gray shell on the deer breast, washed it directly in warm water, cut it into finger-thick slices of meat with a kitchen knife, and did not add oil to the pot, slowly fried the deer breast over low heat, the meat itself contained oil, which escaped little by little, and the rich meat fragrance diffused in the kitchen, and the few mothers-in-law who gave Pan'er a hand couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

After a plate of deer breast was all fried, Pan'er hurriedly brought the deer breast to the bedroom where Liu's mother was, and a group of people were all in the room, only to hear Ge Zhichuan say:

"The old lady will eat the deer breast later, chew it slowly in her mouth, don't swallow the deer breast directly, otherwise you can't lure the hungry insects out, and our efforts during this time will be in vain."

Mother Liu knew the seriousness of the matter, even if she was hungry by the aroma of the deer breast, reason still prevailed, and let her nod solemnly.

According to Ge Zhichuan's instructions, Liu Mu took a bite of the deer breast, chewed it slowly, and never swallowed.

I don't know how this deer breast is pickled, unlike ordinary cured meat, the taste is not heavy at the first entrance, but the strong aroma is very attractive, the longer the chewing time, the heavier the meat aroma, Liu Mu almost exhausted all her strength, so she did not swallow the meat into her stomach.

Suddenly, she felt an itch in her throat, as if something was pushing out of her esophagus.

Liu Mu's face changed suddenly, Ge Zhichuan hurriedly stepped forward, broke Liu Mu's jaw, pinched the chewed deer breast in her mouth, and pulled it out directly, and pulled out a foreign object the size of a man's palm.

Pan'er watched this scene from the side, thinking of the hungry insects that Ge Zhichuan had said earlier, her stomach was overturned, her pretty face was pale, and she was obviously disgusted.

The hungry insect is not small, the whole body is silvery white, the head is sharp and flat, just like a sand fish, and the body is like a shrimp shell.

If Pan'er was not mistaken, she found that the hungry insect had been squirming in the belly, and the scene was very disgusting, only to see Ge Zhichuan throw the hungry insect on the ground, and the old face showed obvious disgust: "Since the hungry insect has come out, as long as the old lady takes care of her spleen and stomach in the future, her body will naturally recover." ”

Hearing this, not only Liu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, but even Pan'er, who was watching from the side, the feeling of suffocation in his chest was also reduced a little.

Mr. Liu hurriedly thanked Pan'er, and sent a lot of gold and silver to Ge Zhichuan, but they didn't accept it at all, but only asked for a box, put the hungry insects in the box, and took it away directly.

After Chu Liang and his wife said goodbye to Mr. Liu, they got into the carriage back home.

As long as she thought of the disgusting appearance of the hungry insect, Pan'er's stomach was not very comfortable, and her face was blue and white, which made Chu Liang look at how distressed she was.

Holding the slender white wrist with his backhand, the rough fingertips slowly slid down, pinched the little woman's tiger mouth, and slowly rubbed it.

Pan'er closed her eyes and calmed down for a while, but the feeling of nausea and wanting to vomit slowly disappeared.

Seeing this, Chu Liang put his chin on his daughter-in-law's shoulder and whispered: "Daughter-in-law, my illness has been cured tonight, and I forgot to tell you something before." ”

When the man said this, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and a pair of eyes were amazingly bright, like a wild wolf with green light, Pan'er subconsciously felt bad, and couldn't help but struggle out of Chu Liang's arms, and asked inwardly:

"What's the matter? If you dare to make any moths, be careful of me, you're welcome! ”

Chu Liang raised his hands in surrender and chuckled softly in the little woman's ear: "Where do you dare to make any moths for your husband, I have good news for you." ”

Even if Chu Liang said that it was good news, Pan'er, who was familiar with men's temperament, would not believe it.

I saw that the man took out a small sandalwood box from his sleeve, which was not very large, and was carved with delicate vine patterns on it, and there was a faint smell of sandalwood.

"This is for me?"

Seeing Chu Liang nodding, Pan'er couldn't help but guess what was in the wooden box, looking at the size of the box, it should be something like bead hairpin jewelry.

She opened the lock on the wooden box, and instead of seeing the pearl hairpin she expected, she found a porcelain vase with a strange shape.

"What's in there?"

Chu Liang held the woman's tender little hand, and the two of them opened the lid of the porcelain box together, revealing the true face of the thing.

A thin small bag, coated with grease, sticky and greasy to the touch, Pan'er couldn't help but put it in front of her nose, sniffed it gently, and a medicinal fragrance diffused.

Seeing that the little daughter-in-law hadn't reacted at this moment, Chu Liang smiled roughly, and kindly explained: "This is a fish bubble." ”
