Chapter 481: Entering the City to Ask for News (1)

Dong Lao came back and brought back a lot of seeds and seedlings of medicinal herbs. Yun Xue spent a night reading the booklet sent by others, and had a preliminary feeling in her heart for the cultivation of these medicinal materials.

The next day, Yun Xue divided the family into two groups, one group continued to plant, and the other group planted those seedlings in the ground first. Yun Xue estimated how much land was needed for these medicinal materials, and then left this piece in the north, and let Qi Changan and them quickly plant things like soybeans and sweet potatoes.

Planting medicinal herbs is generally wide ridges, so it is quick to go to the ground. The two boys led the oxen, and in a short time they waded out all the land used to grow medicinal herbs. After that, he hurriedly began to walk the ground according to the row spacing used for the crops.

Yun Xue Yunni led a few girls and planted the seedlings in the ground. Newly transplanted seedlings need to be watered well, shaded on them, etc., which is actually quite troublesome. Fortunately, there is a lot of grain grass at home, which is covered on the top of the seedlings, which is light and warm. There are not many seedlings left and right, and the grain grass at home is really enough.

It took two days to plant all the seedlings in the ground. The remaining seeds that are still in the square plate and have not moved, it is said that it is not yet time. Yun Xue decided to help plant soybeans or something first, after all, farming time does not wait for anyone, a hundred acres of wasteland, especially so many sweet potato seedlings, planting the most labor-intensive, let's hurry up.

In this way, Sister Yunxue led the girls together to help plant sweet potatoes and potatoes. Some people in the village have relatively little land, and when their own families are busy, they come to the Han family to help, and they are busy for another seven or eight days, and they can be regarded as having almost left the wasteland. At this time, everyone went back and sowed those medicinal seeds into the ground, and after nearly twenty days of busy work, they finally planted all the ground.

By this time, it was already April 22, and all the crops in the field had been planted, and the big guy finally took a breath.

The ground was planted, and Yun Xue's heart became a lot more steady. Taking advantage of the evening, I went to some friendly homes in the village to discuss with them about helping to build a house. Anyway, at this time, the land has been planted, and every household is idle, so Yunxue went to invite, and the big guys agreed very happily. Yunxue and others agreed, and the construction started on April 26, and everyone said okay.

"Yunni, I'm going to Zhoucheng tomorrow, and the people sent by Fu Bo recently haven't said anything about Zhiyuan. I'll go to the state city to inquire, and I'll be back the day after tomorrow at most. Just by the way to get some delicious food back, the big guy came to help, we can't treat people too badly. In the evening, Yun Xue discussed with Yun Ni.

Fu Bo usually tells Yun Xue the news of Shen Hongjun by the way when he sends things here. However, it has been nearly a month, and Fu Bo and they have not brought any news, Yun Xue is very worried, so she wants to go back to Zhou City to inquire.

"Okay, there's nothing big going on at home at this time. It's good to go to the state city and have a look. Yunni smiled. The eldest sister's thoughts, how could she not understand? Also, Third Brother Shen and they have been on the expedition for three months, what is the situation on Gao Li's side, the big guy is hanging in his heart.

"Eldest sister, you have to inquire carefully, I don't know what Yun Zhen looks like now? Where did it go? At this time, it was hot, and when he left, he only brought a single set of clothes, and I don't know what clothes he is wearing now? Jinxiu said on the side, and the tears couldn't help but fall.

Jinxiu is almost seven months pregnant, and her belly is not small, and Yunni pays great attention to helping Jinxiu recuperate on weekdays, so Jinxiu's state is very good. It's been a busy spring for a while, the big guys are all on the ground, and Aunt Zhang and Aunt Qi are busy cooking at home. Yun Xue was a little worried, but Yun Ni said that like Jinxiu at this time, it is good to be more active, and to suffer less during production.

Yun Xue looked at Jinxiu's belly, and also felt a little sad, a woman is pregnant and gives birth, it is really a very hard thing. It's just that her husband is not by her side at this time, on the battlefield. This kind of worrying feeling can drive good people crazy, let alone pregnant women who are already emotionally unstable.

"Okay, Jinxiu, let's not cry. It's okay, Yun Zhen and Tianfu, they'll be fine. You can raise it with peace of mind, just give birth to the child steadily, don't worry about anything, understand? Yun Xue hurriedly persuaded Jinxiu and reached out to help Jinxiu wipe away her tears.

Jinxiu took a few deep breaths, and then gradually calmed down, "Sister, I'm fine." Ever since I was pregnant, I've always been emotionally unstable, I want to cry at every turn, it's okay. ”

Yun Xue and Yun Ni accompanied Jinxiu to talk for a while, and then they were sleepy. These days, everyone is busy working early and at night, and they are indeed tired enough, "Okay, go to sleep, I'm sleepy." Yun Xue closed her eyes, muttered, and fell asleep.

On April 23, Yun Xue took Rulan and went to the state city in a carriage. Qi Hu, the eldest son of Qi Chang'an's family, drove the car, and it was quite fast along the way, and he arrived in the state city before the end of the day.

When the people in the other courtyard saw that Yun Xue was back, they hurriedly welcomed Yun Xue in, and Fu Bo and Aunt Fu came to greet them in person.

"The girl came just in time, didn't the girl entrust the old slave to help inquire about the little piglet or something? Not to mention, I really found a few. There are chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs, which are a tooth shop that often supplies our government, and what they specialize in is to prepare things for various houses in the state city. As soon as Fu Bo saw Yun Xue, he hurriedly told the news.

"There are very few villages near the state town, and they have caused a lot of disasters last year. Because they heard that it was the girl who wanted to use it, these people were attentive and inquired from the distant village. Since the girl is here, I will have someone follow me tomorrow, and bring back everything I need. ”

Yun Xue nodded, "I'm tired of Fubo, the villagers, if they don't raise some livestock, they always feel that something is missing." ”

The Han family received so much grain last year, and they didn't sell it at all, they kept it all. In addition, after returning from the state city this year, Fu Bo often sent all kinds of food to the village, so the family had less food to eat. It's not a problem to keep so much grain, and when the new grain comes down in the fall, there will be no place to put it when there is too much food. So Yun Xue plans to raise more chickens, ducks and geese this year, especially pigs, thinking about raising a few more.

"Don't bother, this is what an old slave should do. Girl, you better rest first, the girl must be tired after such a long journey. Later, I asked the old woman to send the account books of the last few months to the girl, and the girl came over and read it by the way. Fauber paused, then asked. Girl, let's live in Luoxia Pavilion, this side is close to the front yard, if there is anything, it is more convenient to find an old slave. ”

Yun Xue nodded, "Okay, it's good to stay anywhere, it's only two nights around." These Yunxue didn't care too much, "By the way, is there any news of the general?" "That's the main purpose of her return.

"No, there has been no news of the general for some days. In the past, when Shen Liang came back to transport grain, he would come over and say where the general had gone and how the battle was going. The old slave will let people talk to the girl. This time, it seems like it's been nearly a month, and I haven't heard a letter. Fauber shook his head.

"Forget it, I'll go to the governor's mansion tomorrow and ask, maybe he can know." Yun Xue felt a little lost in her heart, "I'll go and rest for a while." ”

Here, Fu Bo and Aunt Fu hurriedly sent someone to clean up the Luoxia Pavilion, and then Aunt Fu and Rulan accompanied Yun Xue over. The subordinates in the house moved very quickly, and after a while, the hot water was sent over, and Yun Xue washed it and changed her clothes again. When I came out, I saw a stack of account books on the table, Yun Xue wiped her hair with a cloth towel in one hand, and opened the account books with the other.

"Girl, it's better for the slave to help you dry it, you're so embarrassed." Rulan stepped forward, took the cloth towel, and helped Yunxue wipe her hair.

Yun Xue opened the account book and looked at it little by little. After they left, the cost of the annex was saved. Although they sent things back to the village every five or six days, they still saved a lot compared to when they lived in another courtyard. "I told Fauber that I didn't have to send anything to the village, he just wouldn't listen. There's really no need to bother with that effort. Yun Xue muttered as she looked at the account book.

"Girl, this is all ordered by the general before leaving, and the general is also worried that the girl lives in the village and eats not so carefully." Rulan smiled while wiping Yun Xue's hair.

Yun Xue naturally understood that this was all Shen Hongjun's intention, but sometimes, she felt a little wasteful. After reading the account book in a short time, Rulan saw that it was not early, and went to the kitchen to order some food. After Yun Xue ate, she felt that she was still a little tired. "After raising it for a winter, I really don't adapt to working in the spring." Yun Xue laughed to herself.

"Girl, you might as well rest early." Rulan leaned on a large pillow behind Yun Xue and persuaded her.

"Let's call Aunt Fu over, I'll talk to her. I haven't been here for three months, and I don't know if there's anything going on in the courtyard. Yun Xue also wanted to rest, but she had been here for a short time, so she had to ask a lot of questions.

A short time later, Aunt Fu came in. Yun Xue asked her to sit down, and the two chatted for a while. "Girl, there's nothing going on in the house, it's okay. It's the two in the small courtyard at the back, and they've been making a lot of noise lately. They were confined in that courtyard, and they were not allowed to go out on weekdays, and recently they were always making noise about feeling unwell or something. ”

"Offering good food and drink, not only do you not have to serve others, but there are also girls who serve them. How? Are they not satisfied with such days? Still want to make a moth? Yun Xue snorted coldly, "Find a Lang Zhong from our Shen Ji Baicao Hall and take a look, forget about nothing, if there is anything, send it back to the capital quickly." Let's just say that the general is not in the house, and the girl is sick, so you don't dare to deal with it. ”
