Chapter 440: Lotus Root
"Lady, let's go."
Wei Zhan finished eating the lotus root soup, and when his wife finished eating, he picked her up and left.
At this time, the boatman also supported the boat, and more than 20 lotus roots were put on the boat.
Wei Zhan let Ying Bao get on the boat first, looked back, and was relieved to see that Xiao Mo didn't follow.
The two of them took a boat through the dense lotus leaves, washed a piece of tender lotus root, and took a bite, which was extremely sweet.
The boatman laughed and said, "In a few days, we will have water chestnuts and chicken head rice here, if Lang Jun comes again, you can eat them."
Wei Zhan smiled, "Come and buy some then."
Sakura Bao was busy picking a few large lotus leaves, putting all the lotus roots on them, and carrying them ashore when he turned around.
At this time, the lotus root is the most tender, and it is very delicious to eat raw, and she wants to take it back to her parents and grandparents to taste.
Well, bring some more to your mother-in-law.
The boat soon docked, Jiang Jie and Luo Zhao also returned, and they also bought a lot of lotus roots.
"Sister, let's go back now, it's not too early." Jiang Jie said.
Sakura looked at the sky, and the sun was already in the west, "Okay."
Turning his head and asking, "Did anyone bring lotus root powder?"
The maidservant Mu Dan nodded: "Yes, the slave has already given the money."
Xinghua said, "A cloth bag, put it in the carriage."
Ying Bao walked to the carriage and looked at it, and asked Mu Dan to divide some of the bag of lotus root powder, and hand over the rest to Jiang Jie to take back.
So, Mu Dan poured half of the lotus root powder on the big lotus leaf, and handed the remaining half of the bag to Jiang Jie.
After the carriage returned to the city, Wei Zhan said goodbye to his brother-in-law and took his wife home directly.
As soon as I entered the yard, I met my sister-in-law Cao and my second sister-in-law Yu.
"Yo, Shichiro and the Seventh Brother and Sister are back!" Cao greeted with a smile: "Can you have fun outside?"
Sakura said politely, "It's okay."
Cao Shi glanced at the lotus leaf bag that Mu Dan was holding in his arms, and asked curiously, "What did my brother and sister bring back?"
"I brought some lotus roots, do you want to take some back and taste them?" It's delicious." Sakura Treasure Road.
"That's a good feeling." Yu smiled, "I haven't eaten lotus root for a long time."
Ying Bao turned around and instructed Mu Dan, "Give some lotus roots to the eldest lady and the second lady."
"Yes." Mu Dan stepped forward and gave four lotus roots to the Yu family and four to the Cao family.
Cao Shi glanced at the things in his hand, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile, "Then thank you to the seventh brother and sister."
Yu Shi also said: "The lotus root is indeed fresh and tender now, thank you to the seventh brother and sister."
"The family is polite, I'll take the rest to my mother-in-law to taste." Ying Bao nodded to the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, and walked with Wei Zhan to the courtyard of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Wang.
Cao Shi took the four lotus roots, watched Wei Zhan and his wife walk away, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
When he returned to his yard, he threw the lotus root directly on the ground, "Just take this thing and give it away?" She's not cold, I'm cold."
The eldest daughter, Yuzhu, came out of the house, saw the lotus root on the ground, and asked, "Mother, why did you bring this back?"
Cao Shi rolled his eyes: "It was sent by your county lord's aunt."
Yuzhu: "Why did Aunt Qi think of sending this? Is there a lack of lotus root in our stove?"
"Born in a poor mud leg, he treats everything as a treasure, and you asked someone to take it and throw it away."
Cao Shi said and walked into the back room and asked Mama Nan, "Have you asked someone to pick up my sister?"
Grandma took a sip of tea, "I've already gone, and I guess I'll be there in ten days."
Cao Shi nodded and sat down on the bamboo couch: "It's really hot this day, I'm afraid it's going to rain."
The little girl immediately took a fan to fan her.
The grandmother said, "It's time for it to rain, and if it doesn't rain again, the seedlings in the field will die of drought."
Cao didn't know much about these things, and she didn't care much about them, she was thinking about how to climb up to her brother-in-law Wei Zhan when her sister came.
This family seems to be in charge of the father-in-law, but it is the mother-in-law who is really in charge.
Her father-in-law's mother and father-in-law are childhood sweethearts, and she can also say a few words in front of her father-in-law, but she is now old and yellow, and she was left in the old house in Luzhou by her father-in-law.
Seeing that Wei Zhan was about to have a child, the Cao family was very anxious.
Because once the Wei family has grandchildren born, the father-in-law and mother-in-law will not count their children and grandchildren.
Therefore, she must find a helper to distract the little brother-in-law.
Men, how can there be anything that doesn't steal, once there is a first time, there will be a second time, and if you can't guarantee it, you will be angry with the mud-legged county lord.
Just as he was thinking about it, a strong wind suddenly hung outside, and it didn't take long for dark clouds to cover up, lightning and thunder.
"Oops! Go and close the window!" The grandmother got up and ran outside to call the girl to close the window.
In the new room in the west courtyard, Yingbao was lying on the bed, pinching lotus root slices and eating, while asking Xuanwu in his heart, "Why did that Supreme Immortal Venerable imprison me?"
"Because someone said you were demonic." Xuanwu replied.
"Why are you enchanted?"
"I guess I was forced by your own father."
Xuanwu didn't know much about it before, because Sakura never mentioned her biological parents.
Later, he learned a little more from the story automatically generated by the Tianyan book.
Coupled with the fact that the master was reincarnated and reborn so many times, and was abandoned by her biological parents every time, Xuanwu finally knew why Sakura Bao turned black into a demon.
They are only in the mortal realm, if they are in the immortal realm, the behavior of her blood relatives will only be worse.
Because the weak eat the strong in that place, and the strong are respected, in order to seize the opportunity, the monks do everything they can.
In order to compete for property and the throne, the mortal world also killed each other, killing brothers and fathers.
Those monks can do anything in order to compete for a little opportunity, for the sake of endless longevity.
In order to obtain the treasure, the biological parents of the little master dug open the body of the child who was only a few years old and searched carefully, and also picked out a few bones, but found nothing.
After that, he used her flesh and blood to make alchemy, and used her as a humanoid elixir for many years until she escaped from the demon.
According to the Tianyan book, the witch after cultivating Dacheng was very cruel and had too much murderous heart, so she went back to take revenge and killed the entire Chen family.
But she let go of a woman, Chen Tiantian, who had brought her food.
Unexpectedly, this move would cause her to lose her soul later.
Xuanwu sighed and threw out a melon: "Here, I planted it for you, it's already ripe."
The melon gurgled and rolled on the mat and was grabbed by Sakura.
She got up and found a knife to peel the skin.
Ever since she destroyed the cave, it was inconvenient to store some things, let alone plant things on top of the golden lumines, but now everything had to go through the hands of Xuanwu.
Alas, who made her owe it a drop of blood, she can only endure it for the time being.
Wei Zhan came back from his mother's place, and saw Ying Bao peeling a melon at a glance.
"Where did the melon come from?" Wei Zhan walked over and asked.
Sakuraho: "Someone else gave it to me."
Wei Zhan was immediately vigilant: "Who sent it? How did I not know?"
Sakura peels the melon, puts it on a plate and cuts it into small pieces. "You know what's going on?"
Wei Zhan pinched a piece and ate it, only feeling that the taste was very familiar.
He relieved himself, sat down next to his wife, and said, "After the two-day holiday, I will go to the military headquarters to see if there is any letter of appointment from me."
He has been back in Beijing for a long time, and it is time for the imperial court to assign him a position.
When the time comes, he will take his wife to take office with him, and it is better to stay away from the capital.
