When Gu Jingcheng and Wan Fuzi came out of the yamen, it was dusk again.

The pest is now high in the hearts of each of them.

He was afraid that Su Xiaomu would be in a hurry at home alone, so after saying goodbye to Master Wanzi, he immediately went home to find her.

Just now, the county magistrate made it clear that once the matter of this insect pest is confirmed, it will be known that the eggs will be locusts when they grow up.

According to the history books of the national dynasty, the last large-scale locust outbreak in the national dynasty was several decades ago, and the locusts were also menacing, bringing a lot of harm and losses to the entire country.

That crisis was deeply remembered in the hearts of the old men of the country, and they still feel very scared when they look back on it.

If this locust crisis is going to start from the city, then it will really take the life of the county master!

The three of them were anxious, but the moment Gu Jingcheng entered the courtyard and saw Su Xiaomu, he only felt that his whole person was soothed.

Su Xiaomu moved the table and chairs under the grape trellis, she put all the Chinese medicines she bought on the table, and kept adjusting the recipe according to the prescriptions in her memory.

Su Xiaomu's hands were stained with a lot of green medicinal juice, she felt that her brain was a little itchy at this moment, and she raised her hand to scratch her head, but when she saw the green of her hand, she withdrew her hand in amazement.

But this time he withdrew his hand, and he saw Gu Jingcheng standing at the door and not coming in.

Su Xiaomu's eyes lit up at this moment, and she didn't hesitate to directly smear the green medicinal juice on her apron and run towards him up and down.

"Gu Jingcheng!" Su Xiaomu called him crisply, "How did you discuss it with them?" Did the county magistrate believe what I said? ”

She researched it all afternoon, and felt like she had almost found the feel.

It would take a day or two at most for her to come up with an insecticide.

After seeing a little light of dawn, Su Xiaomu was still very happy at this moment.

"I have sent someone to investigate, but the county magistrate has no solution to the eggs, I have read a lot of history books today, and I have also privately summoned a farmer, He said that there is no way to completely kill the locusts now, and there is no way to drive them away."

When Gu Jingcheng saw Su Xiaomu running towards him, there was a trace of sweetness and pleasure in his heart, but as soon as he thought of the urgent situation at this moment, he immediately suppressed the sweetness and pleasure in his heart.

His gaze wandered over her, and he looked at the herbs on the table.

"How?"

"It's almost done, I just asked Aunt Zhao to cook later, let's eat first, and then discuss this matter after eating."

Su Xiaomu now has a great grasp of this insecticide, she is in a much better mood, and she is no longer as heavy as just now.

"But you have nothing to do, just help me get started, just wait for my research to succeed, let's go to the test together, after everything is confirmed, you will take the prescription to the county master."

Su Xiaomu has never been a person who wants to be famous, once this insecticide is made, it will only have Gu Jingcheng's name written on it.

"But you made this one." Gu Jingcheng didn't agree with what she said, and rejected Su Xiaomu without a little hesitation.

Gu Jingcheng looked at Su Xiaomu's gaze extremely seriously, and his black eyes were full of sincerity: "What is yours is yours, it is your contribution to the people of Fucheng, you should let them know, not to put my name on it and add ...... to my imperial examination." Color. ”

"You know I don't care, let alone husband and wife are one."

Su Xiaomu didn't want to discuss this issue with him deeply, so he beckoned to pass the topic first, and then pulled him to make insecticides.

Gu Jingcheng was still a little unhappy because the topic was terminated, but when she took her hand and walked into the courtyard, he couldn't get angry.

Gu Jingcheng showed a helpless expression on his face, and he had been arranging the herbs in front of the table for a long time with her, and finally when Aunt Zhao moved the last dish to the table, the first bottle of insecticide was made!

"I think we succeeded!"

Su Xiaomu felt that her brain was more itchy at this time, but now the potion in her hand was a symbol of happiness, and she directly reached out and scratched her head without the slightest scruples, leaving a lump of green on her brain.

Gu Jingcheng couldn't help laughing when he saw her like this, he said, "Just don't you have any scruples?" ”

"No, not at all!"

Su Xiaomu also said with a smile.

The two of them devoured the meal, and then found a nearby farmland to turn over the soil.

Interestingly, this farm is in the city, quite close to their small yard.

This time it was Gu Jingcheng who turned over the soil, and Su Xiaomu squatted behind him after digging the soil to look at the soil turned out.

Sure enough, there are more eggs here than on the farm.

But it is also normal, because livestock are not allowed in the city, the farm is on the outskirts of the city, and free-range chickens and ducks can eat a lot of insect eggs in the field.

To a certain extent, chickens and ducks have resolved a certain crisis.

But after all, it's a drop in the bucket, and the left and right are not of much use.

Su Xiaomu poured the insecticide into the soil, she held a small hoe in her hand, mixed the potion and the soil well, and waited for about a quarter of an hour, and then she opened the pictures to check the situation of the eggs.

Sure enough, the medicine they prepared was very effective, but in just a quarter of an hour, most of the eggs died.

After repeating this, Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng found another farmland overgrown with crops and sprayed the potion on the leaves of the crops.

Because it is a traditional Chinese medicine, although the effect is strong, it does not harm the crops, but this time it takes a long time, almost an hour, and the eggs attached to the leaves of the crops fall down.

After all the experiments were successful, Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning home, the two of them didn't dare to touch the things in the house casually, because before leaving, they had instructed Aunt Zhao to boil two pots of hot water, and there was always a charcoal fire in the stove, so the water was still hot at this time.

They took a comfortable bath in one room by one, and finally had time to sit in the yard and watch the moon comfortably.

"I'm now...... The big stone that has been hanging in my heart has finally fallen, don't you know that when I first found those insects today, the whole person was scared stupid, I was really afraid that the locusts would come and everyone would be displaced. ”

Su Xiaomu closed her eyes and let her whole body relax.

It is said that after the catastrophe, there will be a great plague, and if the locust plague really breaks out in the city, then the arrival of the plague is only just around the corner.

Su Xiaomu knows some simple medical theories, but it is only limited to minor illnesses and pains.

She is not the kind of powerful crossing woman, and this era has not given her any golden fingers.

At that time, under the double attack of locust plague and plague, she is afraid that she will also have no way to live.
