284. How are you again

"It's not just that."

Shen Xingluo said, "The hill behind Zhuangzi is full of red fruits but full of sourness, even the villagers will not use it to make sugar gourds, and some people are rumored to have been cursed." ”

The red fruit that makes sugar gourd, isn't that hawthorn?

Cheng Xi was stunned and thoughtful, "It should be a matter of different varieties." ”

"Variety?"

"Yes, hawthorn...... It is the red fruit, which has more than a dozen varieties, although at first glance they all look similar but the taste is very different. ”

"There are so many kinds of red fruits?"

Shen Xingqi felt novel, "I always thought it was used to make sugar gourds. ”

"There's nothing strange about this, just like the peach forest in our Fucheng, there must be five or six kinds of peaches."

Peaches are a common fruit for everyone, whether it is nectarines or peaches, they are very common in the eyes of everyone. However, the wild fruit of red fruit is rarely cultivated, but no one understands its characteristics, so it is natural to assume that it has only one flavor.

The sour hawthorn can't be made into a sugar gourd, and the people will think it is abnormal, and the court official happened to be convicted, so it makes sense that the two coincidences add up to this kind of rumor.

"Sister-in-law, is it really impossible to eat the red fruit?"

"It's not certain yet, we have to see the real thing first."

Although Cheng Xi said this, he had a little bit of a score in his heart.

Even though there are more than a dozen varieties with different tastes, in modern times, hawthorn has been developed in different ways to eat everything from pastries to drinks, depending on the degree of sweetness and sourness.

In the eyes of foodies, no hawthorn is innocent.

The carriage soon stopped in front of a Zhuangzi, and the first thing that caught their eyes after several people got off the car was the hawthorn trees all over the mountains.

I can't help it, it's too dazzling.

"Wow—that's a big piece!"

The hawthorn trees are strong, their thick branches stretching everywhere, and now it is the ripening season, and the small red fruits are crowded and hanging on the branches.

At first glance, it was all red and red.

"That's too much, isn't it?"

"The red fruit is already high-yielding, and the people around it dislike it for being too sour and no one picks it, isn't there too much?"

Since Zhuangzi was still some distance away from the nearest hawthorn tree, Cheng Xi could not determine its variety.

Seeing this, Shen Xingluo instructed Su Zhan, "I'll pick some later." ”

"Yes."

"Let's go in first."

Sanjin courtyard has not been inhabited for a long time, because the original servant was also sent out of Beijing with the master's conviction, and there is no one to clean it here every day, and there has been no buyer to take over, and it was quickly abandoned.

However, Shen Xingluo was obviously prepared, and when a few people pushed open the creaky gate and entered, they found that the courtyard was very clean, and there were only a few yellow fallen leaves on the ground.

"My subordinates hired a few diligent tenant farmers to clean up yesterday, and the bedding was replaced with a new one, but what else does Madame have to say?"

"It's already good, let's go around first."

The pattern of the courtyard near the capital is almost the same, the first two are no different from the one in the city, the extra third into the north house is for the guests to live, and the east and west wings are still the next room.

The 100 acres of fertile land attached to Zhuangzi were leased to the people in the vicinity, and from this year onwards, only 30% of the grain needed to be sent to Zhuangzi as rent.

Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi didn't have any thoughts about this, and they didn't plan to farm in the suburbs.

The reason why I bought Zhuangzi, in addition to crossing the road with badger pork in the space, was because the second courtyard in the city was too small.

"This can be used as a place to stay, if we feel bored one day, how about we come and stay for a few days?"

"Of course, it's okay, there is a feeling of Shenjia Village here."

Shen Xingqi found some familiarity in Zhuangzi, which was the happiest among the few.

"Huh...... What sounds seem to be out there? ”

Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi also heard it, at this time, several people were standing in the front yard, pushing open the gate and looking out, they saw a familiar figure not far away being besieged, and there was a luxury carriage behind him, and several guards around him were also fighting hard.

"Qu Shaojing?"

"Brother Shen, Mrs. Shen?!"

When the other party heard the voice, a happy expression suddenly appeared on his face.

Cheng Xi was speechless, "Why are you again?" ”

How hateful is this man? It's just a matter of being chased and killed wherever you go, and this time it even affected others.

She didn't miss Qu Shaoya and Jiang Yuyao who looked panicked on the carriage.

He must have been implicated.

"Mrs. Shen, it's so nice that you guys are here!"

Sure enough, there is no endless road.

Qu Shaojing could almost be said to be ecstatic when he saw Cheng Xi, "Mrs. Lao Shen helps me take care of Miss Jiang and my sister!" ”

The last words of "......" were just added, right?

Now even Shen Xingqi behind him could hear it.

The number of men in black has doubled compared to the last time, more than thirty killers are densely packed around a carriage, and there are only five or six guards responsible for protecting the master.

In the case of one-to-many, the guards were quickly wounded during the siege, and the air gradually filled the air with a strong smell of blood.

However, the Shen family quickly saw that something was wrong.

"Didn't the man in black want to kill the little marquis, why are some people still attacking Miss Jiang, is it because Miss Jiang is the fiancée of the little marquis? It's so pathetic! ”

"Save people first."

Cheng Xi pulled out the little girl behind him, "It's time to test your actual combat, don't be afraid, let it go, I'll watch from the side." ”

Shen Xingqi was only stunned for a moment, and then he was full of fighting spirit.

"What if someone is broken?"

"Just keep it and save your life."

If she really dies, it's not a big problem, I'm afraid that the little girl will have a psychological shadow.

However, Cheng Xi's worries were superfluous after all, and as soon as her words landed, she saw Shen Xingqi with a eager posture, took out the dagger from her waist and quickly joined the fight.

Cheng Xi asked Wangshu to support Qu Shaojing, and he was more concerned about the safety of the little girl.

This scene was too ordinary for the Shen family, and no one thought it was inappropriate, but the two girls in the carriage and Qu Shaojing's shocked eyes were about to fall out.

Is the girl who kicked out the man in black from afar sure that she is the second miss of the Shen family?

It's so ferocious!

This girl is just over 15 years old if I'm not mistaken, right? With one enemy and three not only does not fall at all, the wind faintly has the potential to crush, and the dagger is about to be played out by her!

Master, master!

"No, didn't you say that Sister Xingqi just learned martial arts?"

"yes, she said last time she only studied for a few months."

Who can train themselves to become a martial arts master in a few months?

What a genius this girl is!

Qu Shaoya was messy, and Jiang Yuyao, who was as gentle as Jiang Yuyao, also had a stunned expression at this time, and her small mouths opened widely, and she almost screamed.
