Qiao Fang was so frightened that she cried, she cried silently, crying inexplicably, crying panicked and frightened, the aunt in charge was locked up in the firewood room, Jiang Ling died, and she was still alive!

No wonder the aunt in charge reminded them that they could only live long in the Hou Mansion by turning a blind eye to hearing and not hearing, and pretending to be deaf and dumb in the Hou Mansion for a long time, it turned out that the affairs of the Hou Mansion were so dirty and so corrupt.

She walked back to her lodgings without even eating breakfast, and stayed in the house all the time, sitting in the house without eating, drinking, or speaking, and she had to adjust her mood as soon as possible, because she had to go to the night room at night, and she had to walk on the edge of death.

Jiang Ling didn't die in private, she died for her, and she was dying.

……

In the early morning, after Xiao Qing and Qiao Yu and Qiao Hong came back from the mountain, Qiao Cheng and Qiao Yang also woke up, so they hurriedly helped their grandmother pick mung beans.

Xiao Qing thought that he would go to the Hou Mansion later, so some work had to be handed over to the Qin family and Erjing to do.

She saw that there were twenty or thirty thousand steps in the system, and she could exchange more than 30 catties of chili powder noodles, so she gave the work of grinding dogwood flour noodles to Erjing.

And let Erjing grind the dogwood flour noodles, and go to the village to find the Liang family to borrow a small stone grind back, which is used to grind beans.

After she and Zhou came back at noon yesterday, they washed the ten catties of mung beans dried in the morning in the afternoon, soaked them in water, and got up in the middle of the night to change the water twice.

From last night to this morning, it had been almost eight or nine hours, and the mung beans in the big pot had swelled and turned white, and she poured out the water, ready to let Erjing and Qin grind mung beans at home.

She wants to make mung bean vermicelli, and the process takes a long time, but Xiao has cleared it, about six or seven days, that is, it needs to be frozen when it is ready, and this needs to find her buddies to help make a vertical storage room, and then she has to buy ice, and then freeze it.

There are so many mung beans in the deep mountains, there are almost seventy or eighty catties per acre, and seventy or eighty catties can probably make thirty catties of vermicelli, so this kind of mung beans don't taste very good, but it is very good to make mung bean vermicelli.

She thought about it, if the mung beans in the field ran out, she could go to the grain store to buy them, or replace them with other grains and rice.

There are few people who plant mung beans in Daqing Dynasty, and there are few people who eat them, although there are people who make vermicelli with mung beans, but there are very few, most of them use rice, lotus root, peas, cereals, etc., but there are fewer people who do it during the great drought, and they are almost impossible to see in Yaoshan County, and there are very few people who can make vermicelli into a unique taste.

If you can make vermicelli, with spicy flavor, make all kinds of vermicelli, hot and sour noodles, beef noodles, pork powder, soup powder, fried noodles will sell well, rent a shop in Yaoshan County, a small business can also be done, if the demand is too much, she wants to open the store to Shangjing, open to the states of Daqing, if the fans are varied, you can also exclusively supply fans of major restaurants.

Xiao Qingzheng thought about it, so he immediately asked Qiao Erjing to find a stone mill, and first make some and sell them for a few days to try.

After the family finished eating, Xiao Qing took the Zhou family to the Hou Mansion again.

Qin remembered that his mother was not at home these days, and many people in the village came to sell dogwood, so he told Xiao Qing.

"Mother, the village has known that Niang has collected dogwood in the past few days, and all families have come to ask, I want to know if Niang still collects dogwood? Almost every family has dozens of catties, and many have hundreds of catties of dried cornelian fruits! ”

Xiao Qing bowed: "Yes, how much to collect, if you can't put it in the house, let Erjing put a few stones, weave more bamboo baskets and put them in the inner room, and wait for the mother to leave you some silver, you and Qiao Yu are at home watching the harvesting of dogwood dried fruits." ”

Qin lowered his head and smiled: "Mother, the account ...... I won't count! ”

Xiao Qing saw Qiao Hong at this time: "By the way, isn't Brother Hong a bookmaker?" Let him help calculate how much it is! ”

Qiao Hong opened his mouth and responded: "Okay, I'll calculate it, but it's wrong, I'll take a closer look at it for you then, don't make a mistake." ”

Xiao Qing nodded silently, I will teach these children accounting in the future, and how to manage these things at home without learning some accounting.

"By the way, Qiao Hong bought the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for you yesterday, when you are tired of reading, you can teach Xiaocheng and Yangzi, Yuanyuan and Shui Yuanzi to read, recognize words, and there will be many things at home in the future, so that the children can read better."

Qiao Hong did not refuse, she can have this heart, it is something that cannot be sought, let the children in the family study, how much silver should be needed.

However, he didn't think much about it, it's a good thing to be able to read, how good books are!

"Good!" He responded.

After the family made arrangements, Xiao Qing ate and took Zhou to the county seat.

Lao Ma's donkey cart has to send them to the county seat almost every day.

In the future, there will be many places to use cars at home, and it seems that she will have to buy a carriage, and when she negotiates the business in Beijing, she will buy a carriage to facilitate delivery to the county seat.

Xiao Qing directly asked Lao Ma to send them to the Hou Mansion.

Half an hour later, Xiao Qing took Zhou out of the donkey cart, and the old horse also went back.

Seeing the magnificent door in front of him, Zhou felt that this life was worthwhile, such an atmospheric and magnificent house, a village added up is not as big as this Hou Mansion.

"My mother, how much silver did it cost to build, no wonder the people who live here wear so good-looking!"

"Didn't you come to the Hou Mansion before?" Xiao Qing asked suspiciously.

She and Qiao Erjing came to the Hou Mansion to see Qiao Fang before, haven't they seen the Hou Mansion?

"Mother, we haven't entered through the gate, this is the first time I've seen the gate of the Hou Mansion."

Xiao Qing nodded, it was impossible for her to enter through the main entrance, this was not something they could walk into.

She took Zhou's family, found the side doors on both sides of the gate, and entered through the side door.

When he came to the second gate, there was a small servant guarding the door, and Xiao Qing reported to his house to explain his intentions.

The little guy told the two of them to wait at the door.

After two sticks of incense, Shizi Chihiko did not come out, but asked an older mother-in-law to come out and reply.

When the mother-in-law saw the two, she politely invited them: "Hello two sisters-in-law, the prince is having something to do right now, let the old slave take you to meet people." ”

Xiao Qing hummed: "Thank you!" ”

He is the son of the world, and there is no reason to be kind to them because he bought their dogwood noodles, after all, where is his identity, he is already kind to find someone to take them into the Hou Mansion.

The mother-in-law didn't say anything all the way, smiled and turned left and right.

……

In the Banyan Forest Garden of the Hou Mansion, the green shade is abundant, the mountains and bamboos are repaired, the bridge and the water are welcome, the main house is erected from the ground, like a tree house in the mountains, a house is built in the jungle, the house is quiet and lush.

It's already autumn, and the mountains and rocks here are still verdant, and the grass is all over the ground, which shows how particular the owner who lives here is.

Chi Yan just woke up, half leaning on the couch to recuperate, at this moment he had a splitting headache, but he remembered that last night was soft in his arms, the fragrance was welcome, and his brain was relieved for a moment, he had never touched such a soft woman, that waist, to the bones, weak and charming, fascinating, I really didn't expect that there was such a woman in the house, I knew that I wouldn't run outside.

After a few breaths, Chi Yan's personal guard walked in and reported: "Master, last night's girl's name is Jiangling, but it's ......."
