Chapter 52, Rose Ridge Huangzhuang (II)

In the Rose Ridge Imperial Village, male creatures are cut off, but Yue Wangshu is still much more comfortable than in the palace.

Free air, of course, is sweeter.

She not only enjoys the use of the world's wife, but also does not have to serve the emperor, which is clearly her ideal fairy days of "no work for white prostitution".

In the morning, pull a loose bun, don't have to be full of gold and jade, simply wear a pine-colored jacket skirt, and hold a big orange under the persimmon tree outside the hall to bask in the sun.

Looking at the abundant fruits of this tree, Yue Wangshu said: "Call the two eunuchs with clever hands and feet to pick all the persimmons." ”

The pure natural and pollution-free persimmon is orange and red, which is more swaggering than the orange on the back of the big orange.

The little eunuch immediately looked for a ladder, carried a huge basket on his back, and after a while when he climbed up, he was full of round persimmons on his back, purring and pouring out, and climbing up again and again to pick them, and so on and so forth, like a monkey clever.

When the red sun rises to the middle of the sky, the persimmons can be picked, and the visual measurement is two or three hundred catties, and a golden orange swaying hill is piled up!

The big orange happily pounced on it, grabbed a persimmon and rolled it as a ball. Yue Wangshu was worried about how to eat these persimmons, although they were ripe, but the persimmons of this era were all astringent, and they needed to be removed before they could be eaten.

It is not difficult to remove astringency, blanch it with warm water, then add spirits, and seal it in a warm place for a period of time to remove the astringency.

However, compared to this way of eating, Yue Wangshu prefers to eat persimmons.

I called a few palace maids and asked them to take advantage of the good weather to wash and dry the persimmons, then peel them, tie them into strings with strings, and hang them under the porch to dry, and they can eat sweet persimmons for about half a month.

"Master, don't move! This knife is very sharp, let the slaves do these rough work! Seeing that she actually picked up a knife and persimmon, Xiao Ju hurriedly rushed up and took it away.

Yue Wangshu: ...... I'm not so clumsy, am I?

The palace maid Xiao Furong took a thick satin cloak and draped it on her, "It's windy, the master should go back to the house." ”

Xiao Ju is leading three or four palace maids to peel persimmons with their hands and feet, and there are already more than a dozen strings of small lantern-like persimmons hanging under the corridor, swaying gently in the wind, and the air is filled with the fragrance of persimmons, which is really gratifying.

Yue Wangshu suddenly felt that she was like a waste snack that could only move her mouth and not her hands?

Xiao Furong half-pushed and coaxed Yue Wangshu back into the hall, and came in with tea and snacks, "It's so good, why does the master suddenly want to eat persimmons?" "β€”it's not a precious thing.

Yue Wangshu took a sip of wolfberry tea and said, "I just think that making persimmons seems to be quite interesting." ”

Suddenly, Yue Wangshu couldn't help but think of the knife that peeled the skin, if it was clumsy, it was possible to hurt his hands.

She thought of the peeling artifact of the future in an instant! With that thing, you don't have to worry about peeling your own skin!

Thinking of this, Yue Wangshu stopped drinking the tea, and walked quickly to the desk, and Xiao Furong immediately stepped forward to grind the ink, "Does the master want to write or paint?" ”

Yue Wangshu sighed, she spread out a piece of rice paper and said, "It's a painting!" ”

After a while, a simple peeling tool that doesn't hurt your hands was drawn, "Find a craftsman and build it as soon as possible!" ”

However, when the peeling artifact was made, it was already three days later.

These palace maids with quick hands and feet around her have already cut all the more than 200 catties of persimmons! Not only is the porch full, but even several shelves are set up in the courtyard for hanging persimmons!

However, Yue Wangshu is not discouraged, after the persimmon is peeled, it can also be used to peel other fruits!

This inconspicuous "artifact" at most reduced a little burden on the cooks and maids of Rose Ridge Huangzhuang, and did not cause too many waves.

Yue Wangshu didn't care about distributing the "artifact", her mind was more focused on the persimmons drying outside the house, and she would go out to inspect it when she was idle, and sometimes pinch it a few times.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, persimmons are dried day by day, and the sky is beautiful, and almost every day is a sunny day.

Yue Wangshu didn't like to eat persimmons that were too dry and hard, so in less than half a month, she pinched almost them, tasted a few, and felt that they were soft and glutinous, and the sweetness was very good, so she asked someone to accept the persimmons. More than 200 catties of persimmons, more than 70 catties of persimmons, Yue Wangshu couldn't eat them all.

Of course, there is no need to take it out and sell it for money, except for eating some for himself and sharing some with the palace people around him, the rest of Yue Wangshu decided to send it back to the palace.

Every once in a while, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would send her food and clothing, and the most of them were ingredients. In order to ensure the freshness of the ingredients, the internal affairs government replaced the pork with bacon, bacon and ham, and as for the mutton and poultry meat in the portion, they will directly send live animals, and they will eat and slaughter when the time comes.

In order to preserve these living creatures, the eunuch Li Yue had to build a sheepfold and chicken coop in the side courtyard, and also arranged for people to feed them every day.

Therefore, inspecting his property has also become one of Yue Wangshu's pastimes.

In the afternoon of this day, after eating half a plate of persimmons, Yue Wangshu took the big orange and went to the West Side Courtyard.

The sheepfold and chicken coop are all cleaned, and there is almost no odor.

There is only one sheep in the sheepfold now, but there are already more than a dozen chickens, ducks and geese in the chicken coop, which looks quite lively. After all, her monthly lamb portion is 90 catties, but the poultry is as much as 30 per month.

"Two more black chickens." Yue Wangshu found that there were two more white velvet and small chickens in the chicken coop, and he could see at a glance that they were black chickens. Although the black chicken has dark bones, it has a fine fluffy white hair, which looks quite cute.

Yue Wangshu asked the sprinkler next to him: "How many eggs did you collect today?" ”

"Back to the master, twelve, six eggs, four duck eggs, one goose egg, and one black egg!" The little eunuch said with a happy face.

It seems that there is no need to buy eggs in the future, Yue Wangshu smoothed the hair of the big orange in his arms, and the big orange also loves eggs.

Fluttering, snow falling in the sky.

Yue Wangshu couldn't help but hug the big orange in his arms, winter is coming......

Back in the main courtyard hall, little Hibiscus was boiling a pot of black tea on the charcoal basin, the tea was boiling, steaming, and the whole room was full of strong tea fragrance.

Seeing that the master came back, Xiao Furong hurriedly poured a cup of hot black tea and served it, and then saw the snow particles on her master's shoulder.

"It's snowing outside?"

Yue Wangshu blew the hot air, the mist was shrouded, and she was in a trance in front of her, and she said with emotion: "Yes, the first snow of the year." ”

It was also her first snow after coming into this world.
