Chapter 688: No Rain in March
Jia, who was smiling happily, immediately restrained his emotions when he saw Su Yongshen, lowered his head and carefully brushed the duck eggs. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lan Yi couldn't stop smiling and asked, "Big brother, come and sit down." ”
Su Yongshen didn't plan to sit down, "No, I'll come over and ask Mrs. Jia to prepare some medicine, and I have something to go out later." ”
When Jia Shi heard this, he raised his head and looked at Su Yongshen, and saw that his face was still good, his eyes were clear, his lips were ruddy, and he didn't look like he was sick, so he was a little puzzled.
Su Yongshen explained, "I plan to go into the mountains for a few days and ask Mrs. Jia to prepare some medicine to repel mosquitoes and flies." ”
Jia's face was full of disapproval, but he didn't speak, stood up and went to the East Courtyard.
Lan Yi knew that there were three new volunteers in the school, and it didn't hurt for Su Yongshen to go to the mountains for a few days. Although the mountain road is difficult, Su Yongshen has his own measure, so Lan Yi will not persuade him, "There is also a dog skin mattress in this courtyard, big brother take it with you, and sleep in the mountains to keep warm from the tide." ”
Su Yongshen accepted it without much politeness, and asked about Yu'er again, and when she saw Jia Shi coming, she stood up and took the medicine bag and medicine bottle in her hand one by one.
Jia Shi lowered his head and explained while handing it over, "There is wormwood in the mountains, light smoked mosquitoes, this bag of medicine, Su Fuzi put it in the sachet, and change it every three days; The contents of this bag can be used as tea; In this vial, if you feel unwell, take one capsule before meals; If you feel dizzy, place some potions from this vial on your temples. ”
Su Yongshen thanked him, handed over a dime of broken silver, and Jia Shi was not polite, and then went to clean the duck eggs. Lan Yi turned her head back and forth, always feeling that it was strange between the two, one took the medicine to give money, and the other actually took it.
Su Yongshen went back to put down the medicine, came back to get the dog skin mattress, and explained to Lan Yi, "This time I went with Wujun and hired two porters, if the mountain road is not easy to walk, let them carry me in." ”
Lan Yi smiled and nodded, "That's very good, if the eldest brother sees scarce herbs in the mountains, he has to pick some of them." Aunt Yao, what medicine is lacking in the family now? ”
Su Yongshen also smiled and turned his head to look at Jia's. Jia Shi didn't raise his head, "The family has all the medicinal materials, and there is nothing missing." ”
Lan Yi was more sure that something happened between them directly this time that she didn't know, and it felt like she was making an awkward noise.
Lan Yi covered her mouth and secretly laughed, this is also a good thing, there will be progress only if there are contradictions.
Seeing her like this, Jia Shi got up with the washed duck eggs and went into the kitchen with a weak heart, and never came out again.
Lan Yi listened to the sparse cicadas on the trees, and suddenly felt pleasant, got up and rummaged for the ripe strawberries, so as to fulfill her dream.
It's also interesting to say, since the first strawberry ripened, I quickly found that many of them were ripe, but they were not as big as they had dreamed. Lan Yi picked more than 20 of them, washed them and put them in a small bowl, took them to the hillside, and saw Mr. Nameless.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Nameless also planned to go into the mountains to repair the waterway, and Yu Bo was packing up his things.
"It's such a big thing, how can you not see it with your own eyes." Mr. Nameless smiled and looked at the bright red strawberries in the small bowl that Lan Yi took out, "Ripe so quickly?" The color is very good. ”
Lan Yi dug up wild strawberries from the mountains, planted a pot and sent them over, but they were not yet ripe. Mr. Nameless picked up a large one and put it in his mouth, tasted it carefully, and commented, "Yes, it is very suitable for you and the children." Jingxiao, you can also taste it. ”
"Okay, I've been waiting for a long time."
Lan Yi's eyes widened, and she looked back at the crane-haired and childish-faced old man who stepped in, no wonder Wang Luozi laughed at herself, it turned out that the friend of the teacher turned out to be Mr. Jing Xiao, the same as Mr. Nameless, a bachelor who is famous all over the world!
No wonder Wang Luozi laughed at himself!
Lan Yi pouted and glared at the teacher, then watched Mr. Jing Xiao eat a strawberry, pinched another one with an intoxicated expression, put it in his mouth, and said with a smile, "Sir, you eat a few more, the teacher said that this strawberry is only suitable for children." ”
When Mr. Jingxiao heard this, he laughed with Mr. Nameless. Yu Bo floated over faintly, stretched out his hand behind Lan Yi and took a strawberry and put it in his mouth, ate it expressionlessly, and floated away again.
Lan Yi was taken aback by him, "Uncle Yu, I'm pregnant with a child now, you scare her so much, be careful that she will cry when she sees you in the future!" ”
Mr. Jingxiao laughed, "No wonder the nameless brother is so happy, you little apprentice, it's really interesting." ”
In fact, Mr. Nameless now regards Lan Yi as his daughter, and his words are a little more indulgent and close, "She is sometimes very annoying, and it will be good for the child to follow Wei Ji in the future." ”
Mr. Jingxiao has never seen Zhou Weiji and can't comment, but Yu Bo said with a straight look, "The little girl is boring like him." ”
Mr. Jing Xiao looked at Yu Bo in surprise, wanting to ask him when he had such skills, but when he saw Lan Yi's satisfied face, he suddenly smiled. This master and servant, sure enough, is still like this, it makes people feel more approachable, since the death of his sister-in-law, Mr. Jing Xiao has not felt such a relaxed atmosphere by the side of Mr. Nameless for many years.
"Sir, you are good at observing the heavens, and in your opinion, how long will it be before it rains?" Lan Yi asked Mr. Jingxiao for advice.
"I'm afraid there will be no rain in March." Mr. Jingxiao said, "So this water diversion is a big deal. ”
There was no rain in March, how could it be so serious? Lan Yi went home worried, picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Xue's family, asking people to send it to Dengzhou.
Ten days later, Xue's reply was received, and Lan Yi became more cautious, because Xue said that it was not only March, but that the drought would not be alleviated until October.
"Therefore, we should rethink the plan, the original development plan should be cautious or even temporarily contracted, and we should first take advantage of the fact that the disaster is not serious now, and purchase more items from other places to deal with the drought, food, and medicinal materials. And take advantage of the waterway is still open, buy a few boats of rapeseed at a low price, exist in the oil mill, the fresh fruit workshop is suspended, the center of gravity is transferred to the workshop in Meixian County, and the unfinished orders are done by that side. The mountain goods store still maintains the current scale, and has been changed to establish a stall for collecting mountain goods in Zhushan Village, Meixian County, forming a system of receiving and selling goods, and still adopts the idea here...... "Lan Yi said one by one.
Xia Chongxiao and Xiao Qi listened solemnly, and also began to think about how to deal with their own business.
"How big is the area without rain?"
"Everywhere in Dengzhou, as well as Zhending and Hejian, most of them are like this, most of them are like this." Lan Yi said, "If there is no rain when the mango is planted, and there is no harvest in the field and no planting is possible, it is inevitable that the people will panic." ”
Xiao Qi didn't ask Lan Yi how she learned about the celestial phenomena, if she was willing to tell it, she would be at least eight points sure, so she should plan well.
"While the water flow is not cut off now, I must store water as soon as possible, and I must choose a good place to dig two deep wells in my greenhouses and vegetable growing places. My Cheng family's business is mainly shipping and tea, so I guess the impact will not be too big. Brother Xia, what should you do with the restaurants over there? ”
