Chapter Seventy-One: The Withered Garden
The eunuch came again to report that the envoy of Tuyuhun wanted to meet His Majesty.
Li Shimin took Li Chengqian and left in a hurry.
Li Tai's heart was dripping blood and tears, not only was the money from selling soap gone, but he also had to be left in the Lizheng Palace to be punished.
It's so aggrieved, it's too uncomfortable.
Empress Eldest Sun asked people to bring the table and prepare pen and ink.
Li Taiduan sat down, gritted his teeth and began to write.
Chang'an City, now Chang'an is very lively, after the envoy of Tuyuhun arrived, the envoy of Tubo also came.
Tuyuhun and Tubo are fighting in the Western Regions.
At this time, no one wants Datang to pull a bias to which side.
Knowing that Tuyuhun sent people to Chang'an City, Tubo also sent people.
The Tibetan Prime Minister Lu Dongzan led a group of Tubo people into Chang'an City, and entered the post house of Chang'an City under the reception of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.
Many matters between the DPRK and China have little to do with Zhang Yang.
In the yard of his home, Zhang Yang observed the growth of spinach.
The spinach seedlings grow taller every day, which is a very gratifying thing.
After a few days, it will be ready to be transplanted into the vegetable patch.
The fertility of the vegetable patch is a big problem right now.
It is also necessary to take good care of the land.
Li Yue is watering in the garden, because the weather is very cold this year.
Now the chrysanthemums are not growing well, and even some flower seedlings have begun to wither.
She looked at the garden sadly.
Zhang Yang said: "This season is like this, even if Qiu Ju wants to grow well at this time, it is difficult. ”
Li Yue pouted, "How's your spinach?" ”
Zhang Yang said: "It's not bad, although the temperature is very low, but the light is still okay at the moment, and it can be transplanted into the vegetable field after a period of cultivation." ”
Touching Li Yue's little head, Zhang Yang said: "You can continue to plant in the spring of next year, after all, the season is not good, you see how good those dead chrysanthemum seedlings are." ”
Li Yue looked at him and said, "Why are you so happy." ”
Zhang Yang blinked, "Am I happy?" ”
Li Yue stretched out his little hand and twisted the soft flesh on Zhang Yang's waist and said, "You obviously laughed just now." ”
Zhang Yang said: "In fact, these dead chrysanthemum seedlings are also a good material for fertilizing the land, and planting these chrysanthemums is not for nothing, and it can also fertilize my vegetable garden." ”
Li Yue pursed her lips and said, "My chrysanthemums are all dead, don't comfort me, you still have to use them as fertilizer." ”
Zhang Yang said with emotion: "Making fertilizer is their best destination. ”
There is no need to replant the dead chrysanthemums.
Li Yue plucked a dead chrysanthemum and looked at them with a look in his eyes like looking at a deceased lover.
Obviously there are a few chrysanthemums, the little daughter-in-law looks at these withered yellow chrysanthemum seedlings, and every time she pulls up a chrysanthemum seedling, there is even a sense of tragedy and grandeur of life and death.
Pull up the dead chrysanthemums, put them in the vegetable patch, and stand alone in the same place.
……
The chrysanthemums that I have worked so hard to grow have not yet bloomed.
He didn't even see the flower bones, so he became fertilizer in his vegetable patch.
Why is there such a cruel thing.
My heart hurts......
Finally, the little daughter-in-law couldn't hold back anymore and ran back to her room in tears.
When I saw the silver cake two days ago, what I smiled like that day, what I was wronged about today.
The mood goes up and down too quickly.
Zhang Yang neatly placed these dead chrysanthemum seedlings in the vegetable field, which can not only increase the organic matter of the soil, but also improve the soil environment, and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are the key elements of fertilizing the land.
Dig some more garlic to make garlic water.
Garlic water is a natural pesticide and can also control pests.
After tidying up the vegetable patch, Zhang Yang washed his hands and knocked on Li Yue's door, "What do you want to eat at noon?" ”
"No appetite!"
Li Yue's voice came from the room.
Zhang Yang went out to the market, where the butcher was chopping some pig bones, and roe deer meat was hanging on the side.
Eyes fell on some pork ribs.
The butcher smiled and said, "Young man, what do you want to buy, mutton, roe deer meat?" Do you want the lamb bones from the last time? ”
Zhang Yang said: "How do you sell these pork ribs? ”
The butcher wiped his hands with a cloth and said, "No one wants these bones." ”
This is a good thing, the people of the Tang Dynasty didn't like pork very much, and no one wanted pork bones.
Zhang Yang said: "Come on a piece of pork liver, I'll give me the pork bones over there for an extra two pennies." ”
The butcher happily wrapped the bones and pork liver and handed Zhang Yang a total of five cents.
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Thank you, big brother." ”
The butcher said, "You come often, and it's okay to give more." ”
The butcher is very happy in business, and the meat on his side is very fresh.
It's a regular customer.
When the sun shines on the entire East Market, the weather is not so cold.
Zhang Yang bought some dried vegetables and went home to make soup.
When he got home, Li Yue still locked himself in his room.
Wash the pork ribs and liver and start cooking.
Stir-fry the pork ribs, and the aroma begins to come out.
A pot of braised pork ribs, a stir-fried pork liver, and a bowl of dried vegetable soup.
The dishes were served on the table, and Zhang Yang was eating with a rice bowl.
Li Yue's door opened quietly, and she took a look.
Zhang Yang was eating with relish.
Coming out of the room with a small mouth, Li Yue walked all the way to the dining table.
Zhang Yang said: "Hungry? ”
Li Yue nodded silently.
Zhang Yang said: "Go and get the chopsticks and bowls by yourself, and serve the rice by yourself." ”
"Hmm!" Li Yue regained his spirit and ate happily.
Although the economy is better now, you can also have meat to eat.
I am also willing to give Li Yue something delicious.
I'm also a little worried about whether this little girl will eat like a fat girl.
Eating pork ribs, Li Yue said: "I decided." ”
"What has been decided?"
"I've decided to leave the garden to you for the time being, so you can grow vegetables."
"It's great that you've got a big idea, get the wine."
You can drink alcohol, and this kind of thing is very motivating for Li Yue.
The previous sad mood was swept away, she came with a pot of wine, and consciously poured a bowl for Zhang Yang.
The little daughter-in-law's alcohol consumption is unfathomable.
Drink alcohol in moderation as well.
After drinking half a bowl, I quickly stopped.
Zhang Yang said to her: "Although the wine is good, don't be greedy." ”
Li Yue took another sip, her little face flushed.
If you eat a little fat man, drink all day long, your face is red, and you wield a machete, then your daughter-in-law must not be like Zhang Fei.
Right now, Li Yue seems to be a bit of a good wine.
Drinking a little alcohol once in a while can also invigorate the blood.
As long as you don't drink too much every day.
Drink less in the future.
After the meal, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is spinach good?"
Li Yue completely placed the weight of his body on the chair, and his limbs were paralyzed at will.
Zhang Yang frowned and looked at her, "Didn't you ask last time?" ”
A pot of braised pork ribs has been eaten, and only a few pickles are left of the pork liver.
There is still a mouthful of dried vegetable soup left.
