Chapter 189: The water used to wash ginseng must not be wasted
It's a new day in Shenshu Village.
In the early mornings of summer, the village is especially lively.
The cries of chickens, ducks and geese, the jubilation of pigs, cattle and sheep.
The greetings of the villagers who got up early and went to the field, and the chatter scattered all over the village......
A scene full of life.
Only the summer house is quiet.
Everyone was afraid to come out.
Their master, Xia Zhen, was fine during the day yesterday, looking like he was excited, but when Xie Xiaolian came back in the evening, his face changed.
Don't look at Ah Zhen, who usually doesn't get angry, but a little person has a temper, and it's powerful enough.
According to the reliable news sent by the servant next to He Shun, the young master dropped a cup of tea last night, kicked over a basin of footwater, threw a towel in the morning, and splashed his face...... Liu Yishou just wanted to send a bowl of steamed shrimp eggs in, when he saw Wu Xiaoying walk out with a drooping face.
"What's wrong with the young master?" Liu Yishou asked.
"This has to ask Xie Xiaolian. You better not go in, that kid is now arresting whom, don't touch the head. ”
Liu held the egg in one hand and hesitated to retreat.
Wu Xiaoying couldn't stop gossiping, pulled Liu Yishou to the shade of the tree in the courtyard, and whispered: "Do you know that Xie Xiaolian came with the Queen Mother's decree." ”
Liu Yishou said: "Can that be what we know?" ”
Wu Xiaoying said: "What are you pretending?" Do you know what the Queen Mother's decree is? said that it was a daughter-in-law for the little master. ”
Liu was startled: "Whose girl?" The young master is so small, so he ordered it? ”
Wu Xiaoying whispered: "It is said that she is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhongjing's mansion, and she is three years older than the young master." ”
Liu Yishou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The female junior holds the gold brick, which is a good sign." ”
Wu Xiaoying said speechlessly: "Good omen, a ghost!" He's angry about it. ”
The two of them were whispering, and they saw He Shun walking out with a sad face.
……
"Ginseng essence, ginseng essence, please make Erlang's leg better. If you save Erlang's leg, I will go to the temple to burn incense and light sea lanterns for you, and bless you to become an immortal in your next life. ”
Early in the morning, Xie Chuntao worshiped and worshiped the thousand-year-old one, then washed it carefully, took it into the kitchen and carefully cut it into the kitchen to cook ginseng soup.
"This ginseng water is also good, it can't be wasted, come on, Erlang, you drink it." Bai Dazhuang followed behind Xie Chuntao, filtered the water from the washed ginseng into a bowl, and served it to Erlang to drink.
Erlang, who was studying in the courtyard, looked confused: "......"
Xiao Fuyuan tugged at Bai Dazhuang's sleeve and said, "Big brother, there's no need to give Erlang this ginseng washing water to drink." ”
Even though it was filtered, the water was still muddy.
What to do in case you have diarrhea.
Bai Dazhuang held the bowl of water, snorted a few times, and said with a pious face: "Don't have diarrhea, don't have diarrhea, childish words are unscrupulous." Sister, you don't know, this thousand-year-old ginseng has spirituality everywhere, even the mud on its body also has spirituality. ”
Xiao Fuyuan: "......"
Bai Dazhuang handed the bowl to Erlang's mouth: "Don't dare to waste it, come to Erlang, for the sake of your legs, you will be bored." ”
Erlang's eyes took off the cloudy bowl, took it with both hands, held it up, and raised his head and drank it into his stomach.
"Vomit ......" Jiro wanted to vomit.
"Erlang, this water is smart." Bai Dazhuang stared at his second son.
Jiro covered his mouth and didn't dare to spit it out.
"I'll go see if Erlang's ginseng soup is ready." Xiao Fuyuan jumped and ran to the kitchen.
Qiu Niang is burning the fire, she has now adapted to the farm life, and she is good at cooking everything on the fire.
Xie Chuntao squatted beside the stove, and the casserole was hanging from the stove, gurgling and smoking.
"Sister-in-law, when will the ginseng soup be good?" Xiao Fuyuan asked.
"It will take another half an hour." Xie Chuntao said, and asked Xiao Fuyuan with a sincere face, "Sister-in-law, you said that Erlang drank this refined thousand-year-old ginseng, can his legs be good?" ”
"It's going to be fine." Xiao Fuyuan nodded.
After Xie Chuntao heard this, he bowed to the casserole that sounded on the stove.
She felt a little guilty in her heart, her sister-in-law hadn't drunk ginseng soup yet.
Qiu Niang couldn't help but purse her lips and smiled, and said, "Sister-in-law, Sister Yuanbao is right, Erlang's leg will definitely be good if he drinks this ginseng." ”
Xie Chuntao's eyes were red from the spurt of ginseng soup: "Alas, for so many years, Erlang has always been my heart disease. ”
Qiu Niang comforted her and said: "I think Erlang is a Wenqu star, and generally such a Wenqu star has to be tempered." Erlang can not only get better, but maybe he can earn a life for his sister-in-law when the time comes. ”
Although he knew that Qiu Niang was comforting, Xie Chuntao was still relieved when she heard it, and said in a double ten-in-ten: "I don't care if I don't give my life, as long as the people in our township can eat and dress warmly, I just want Erlang's leg to get better, and I don't want him to run, it's always okay to walk." ”
Qiu Niang smiled.
Chong Xiaofuyuan said: "Sister Yuanbao, you are hungry." The lotus leaf mung bean soup I boiled for you today is the sweetest, I'll give you a bowl first. ”
Xiao Fuyuan shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry yet, I'm waiting for everyone to eat together." ”
Xie Chuntao stood up and said apologetically to Qiu Niang: "Qiu Niang, look at me, I only care about the ginseng soup, and I forgot to cook for you." ”
Qiu Niang got up and cut vegetables and said, "Sister-in-law, the ginseng soup is important, you should take care of the ginseng soup." I'm almost done with breakfast, and I'm giving Uncle Bai a cucumber. ”
Bai Zhaomei's uncle and nephew ate leftovers early and went to school, so breakfast was not as crowded as before, and Qiu Niang prepared it easily.
The white plank went down to the ground early in the morning to pull the weeds, he loves to eat cold cucumbers, and every time Qiu Niang and Xie Chuntao prepare a plate for him.
Qiu Niang's hands and feet were nimble, and she quickly prepared breakfast and began to set up the meal.
In the summer, the rice is placed in the shade of the trees in the yard, which is bright and cool.
Eugene Gui can be lazy, she was lazy when she and Xie Chuntao cooked together, and now that Qiu Niang is here, she is even more unscrupulous to carry Mrs. Bai and Zhen into the kitchen.
Seeing Mrs. Bai coming back from the vegetable field, she panicked and helped Qiu Niang carry the table.
Xiao Fuyuan and Erlang sat around the table first, and Bai Muban and Zhen also came back, washed their hands and sat down.
The ginseng soup was ready, and Xie Chuntao's hands couldn't stop shaking.
Qiu Niang wrapped the casserole in a towel and poured it into a large bowl steadily, without spilling a drop.
Xie Chuntao picked up the ginseng soup and walked towards Erlang.
"Come, Erlang, drink the ginseng soup." Xie Chuntao carefully handed the ginseng soup to Erlang.
Erlang took it carefully, and under the attention of the whole family, he first took small sips, and after a few sips, he swallowed it all into his stomach with his neck tilted.
"What does it taste like?" Bai Dazhuang asked.
"It's better than the ginseng water my dad gave me." Jiro said honestly.
Xie Chuntao stared at Erlang's leg with hopeful eyes and asked, "Erlang, what do you think of your leg?" ”
Old Lady Bai knocked on the table and said, "This is just a bowl of it, even the immortals have to react." ”
Xie Chuntao smiled embarrassedly.
Eugene Gui pouted, a lame son gave a golden egg as a pet.
"Let's eat." Zhen greeted everyone.
Xiao Fuyuan sat next to Zhen, holding a bowl of mung bean soup boiled with lotus leaves.
Steward He hurried to the Bai family from the opposite side.
"Steward He, have you eaten?" The white planks greeted each other.
Steward He said with a smile: "Brother Bai, please do something, can you let Xiao Yuanbao go to eat with my young master." ”
Bai Muban is not very happy about this, what's the matter, I have to go to your house to treat my daughter as a dinner companion.
Since your young master is holding my daughter, why don't you come to my house.
"Let Ah Zhen come and I will accompany my daughter to dinner." The white plank said loudly.
"That's right, Uncle He, let Brother Ah Zhen come to my house for dinner, Sister Qiu's lotus leaf mung bean soup is delicious." Xiao Fuyuan pointed to the mung bean soup and said.
He Shun couldn't care about it, nodded and said, "Then can you trouble Xiao Yuanbao and Uncle He to call the young master over for dinner?" ”
