Qiao Jingjing followed the voice and looked over.

A lame young man with a tall young man standing next to him.

Qiao Jingjing recognized it, this was the agricultural official who listened to her lecture in Liu Xun's mansion back then.

When Liu Ajiao led people to embarrass her, although he was a lame young man, he still stood up and helped her.

She remembered the man's name.

"Wei Hua!"

Qiao Jingjing said hello.

Wei Cheng introduced the taller and handsome young man beside him to Qiao Jingjing.

"Miss Qiao, this is my younger brother, Wei Cheng.

Speaking of which, I have to thank you, Miss Qiao.

Since I learned the way of farming with Miss Qiao, our family's harvest has improved, and I simply called my brother back.

From then on, my younger brother and I studied and farmed together and lived an ordinary life. ”

Wei Hua was very moved when he said it.

Who wants their flesh and blood brothers to fight on the battlefield? Don't you all want to be reunited as a family, ordinary and ordinary?

This young man named Wei Cheng kept looking at Qiao Jingjing.

That vision never left.

"Ah Cheng, this is the girl Qiao I told you about. Miss Qiao is not only good-looking, but also better at speaking and doing things than a man. ”

The two brothers live in the north of the city, and now they also have a mulberry garden, a fish pond, and a few acres of fertile land.

Wei Hua and his brother calculated that the family should plant a few acres of fruit trees.

was making trouble about this fruit tree, and met Qiao Jingjing on the road.

It's such a coincidence.

Wei Hua told his brother all the way: "This woman, you really can't underestimate her, she is really a very, very amazing person."

It looks like he is usually young, but he is really capable and scheming. ”

Wei Hua said that the daughter of the famous Liu Taishou suffered a big loss from Miss Qiao, and was driven back to Shouchun.

He walked all the way, just to tell his brother that he had met an amazing girl.

And Wei Cheng already remembered Qiao Jingjing in his heart.

He learned from his eldest brother Wei Hua that this Qiao girl's family lived in the south of the city, Peach Blossom Lane.

Later, Wei Cheng also rode a horse from the north of the city to Qiao's house and knocked on the door to meet Qiao Jingjing.

Ask Qiao Jingjing for knowledge of mulberry farmland.

It's also a shame that Aunt Joe is now taking medicine.

Mother Joe spends her days either sitting in the courtyard or lying in her own room.

Otherwise, how could this Wei Cheng see Qiao Jingjing's face?

Qiao Jingjing faced this young man who traveled through a city, came from the north of the city to the south of the city, and asked her for advice.

She was very honest.

She told this young man about the planting conditions and planting methods of lychee, longan, grapes, and sugarcane.

In front of her was a young man who gave up fighting and went home to farm.

If there is no harvest on the ground, what will a big man do to support his family?

If you can't support your family, you can only continue to be a homeless person.

There were four strands of displaced people, and turmoil arose.

Wei Cheng smiled embarrassedly: "My family is poor, and my brother and I have not married a wife yet." It's me who doesn't have the ability! Thank you, Miss Joe, for your advice. ”

Qiao Jingjing sent Wei Cheng away.

Standing on the doorstep.

Lu Meng just looked at her.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Qiao Jingjing was shocked by Lu Meng's posture.

"Miss Qiao, there are so many men who come to you on weekdays to discuss farming?"

Qiao Jingjing spread her hands.

"Nope!"

This man was the first in three years, since that year she had lectured more than 300 peasant officials.

Lu Meng was relieved.

Qiao Jingjing had already gone to the kitchen, and there was medicine for the old mother in the kitchen.

She personally guarded the medicine, decocted it, and sent it to the old mother's room.

Aunt Qiao saw Qiao Jingjing and the medicine plate that Qiao Jingjing was holding in her hand.

A painful face.

She has been taking medicine for half a month.

This medicine is too bitter.

"How long does Lang Zhong want me to take the medicine?"

Qiao Jingjing said: "Lang Zhong didn't say it! Every time Lang Zhong checked the pulse and only prescribed a prescription, he said to grab a few pairs of medicines, and Manman and I went to grab a few pairs of medicines according to his requirements.

Last time, Lang Zhong said that after taking these doses of medicine, he went to invite him again. ”

Mother Joe held a big mouthful of bitter medicine in her mouth, and she wanted to spit it out!

"Mother, you take the medicine well, and I'll go to the kitchen to get you a piece of candy."

The sugar that Qiao Jingjing brought was sucrose.

She went to the city to get medicine for her old mother, and when she saw someone fleeing from Guangxi, she bought a few bundles of sugar cane on an ox cart, boiled the sweet ones into sugar, cut them down at the top and planted them in the fertilizer field of the garden.

The mother ate a piece of candy.

I didn't realize that this was a different kind of sucrose, not the malt syrup of the time.

looked at Qiao Jingjing, and was still standing in front of her.

"What are you standing in front of me for? I've finished drinking the medicine, you go out! ”

Since the old mother took the medicine, she has not spoken as much as before, and although her tone is not much gentle, she has no firepower after all.

Qiao Jingjing moved a stool and sat in front of her old mother.

"Mother, I'll beat your back."

Qiao Jingjing began to beat her mother's back and pinched her legs.

The old mother had to see Qiao Jingjing's face up close, this thin scar.

The old mother suddenly burst into tears.

Silently, tears flowed down his face.

"Why is my mother crying? But not feeling well? ”

"Big Joe, what are you going to do? What should you do if your face is like this now? The fortune teller told Liu Taishou that a woman who has broken her appearance should not be the housewife, and even if she is a concubine of a large family, she will not want a broken appearance. Da Qiao, you tell me the truth, what did that General Sun do to you? Don't you fool me! Auntie, I have traveled more roads than you have ever seen, men are all the same, see one, love one. If you don't catch one in your hands while you're young, no one can guard you for a long time, and you will forget about people after three days or two days of not seeing you! Big Joe, you tell me the truth! ”

This is the first time Qiao Jingjing and her mother have talked like this after reuniting.

The old mother was not hysterical.

Qiao Jingjing let go of her hand and helped her mother cover the quilt.

"Mother, I know you're worried about me, but you also have to take care of yourself."

can make the old mother change from crazy to not manic, and become stable, in addition to the medicine of this doctor, I also have to thank Lu Meng.

Thank you Lu Meng for helping her suppress this feudal patriarch with her fists.

The old mother said again that Qiao Jingjing lacked a girl by her side.

Yuzhu had been kicked out because of a mistake before.

The old mother explained to Qiao Jingjing earnestly: "Our family is a family with a face, how can there be no one around you to serve?" I'm going to buy it tomorrow, got it?. ”

The old mother, who was not manic, said these words that she cared about very much, but Qiao Jingjing was very willing to take it to heart.

Qiao Jingjing happened to have the opportunity to take Qiao Manman and Lu Meng to the city for a walk.

Lu Meng is not close to see inconspicuous, but he is very powerful.

With him by his side, I was very relieved.

Qiao Jingjing said that she was ordered by her old mother to buy another maid.

Lu Meng can also help her check the gates.

"Well, I know that. Miss, to buy this maid, you have to be clever, you can't have too many eyes, you have to be diligent, and you have to be faithful. ”

Is this kind of request easy to find?

Lu Meng took a fancy to that little girl.

Thirteen or fourteen years old.

He said, "It's an innocent body!" The family was poor and had no money to eat, so she fled from above, and her family sold her in order to buy a land. ”

Qiao Jingjing also thought that this girl was very good, so she bought it for two taels of silver and named her Yumei.

Yumei's original surname was Pan, two years younger than Yulan, and she had a sister who was four or five years old at home.

At that time, many young men could be seen riding horses everywhere in the city, which was very magnificent.

Qiao Manman remembered his experience of riding a horse that year.

She and her sister had just escaped Liu Ajiao's clutches, hid in the jungle for two days and two nights, and returned to the official road, fortunately they met Zhou Yu.

There she rode her horse for the first time, but she wouldn't.

The two sisters rode the same horse and needed help with the reins.

Qiao Manman looked enviously at the way those people rode horses.

People who can ride horses are so handsome and free.

Qiao Jingjing asked Lu Meng how his riding skills were?

Lu Meng smiled.

"Miss Joe! Others say that people in the north are good at horseback riding, and people in the south are good at rowing, which is underestimating us people. We can both swim and row, and we can ride horses uphill and downhill, as if we were walking on flat ground. ”

Is it?

When Lu Meng came to Qiao's house to protect Qiao Jingjing, he brought a horse with him.

Qiao Jingjing asked Lu Meng if she had the ability to teach her and Qiao Manman.
