Chapter 16: Go and be a guest

Xiang Tiange nodded, and then asked, "What about them, brother?" Won't they go? ”

Old Jiang said: "There is not so much money in the family, and this silver is enough for one person to read, so I will send you there first, and when the money in the family is more, I will send your brother and them when the time comes." ”

Hearing Lao Jiang's words, Xiang Tiange thought about it, and finally nodded.

Because she felt that she had a fairy in her head, the family would definitely have more money in the future, and her brothers would soon be able to go to the academy to study.

Before her brothers go to the academy, she can also teach her brothers what she has learned from the academy.

So she didn't think about why so much silver was not enough for her and a few brothers to go to school, for Xiang Tiange, the ten taels of silver ingots given by the gods were already a lot of money.

Because in her impression, the family took her to prepare New Year's goods, and took silver ingots smaller than this to buy things, and she could buy a lot of them, so in her opinion, these ten taels of silver ingots are already a lot of money.

But the thing that made Xiang Tiange happiest was that grandma finally believed that there were immortals in her head, which meant that she would never have to drink that talisman water in the future!

Thinking of the tasteless but scum-filled talisman in his mouth, Xiang Tiange thought back, and his whole little face wrinkled.

On the Qu family's side, Qu Xiang suddenly remembered that his little friend had told him to invite their family to build a school yesterday, so he hurried over to find his grandfather and tell him about it.

Qu Lao Guogong originally planned to ask the villagers of Taohua Village to build a school funded in the village, and he was naturally full of response to his grandson's proposal.

Qu Xiang saw that he agreed, so he took Dafu, ran out of Zhuangzi with the cook freshly made gourd cake, and trotted in the direction of Lao Xiang's home in Peach Blossom Village.

"This kid is running so fast, I haven't had time to explain that his gourd cake is for the juniors of the Xiang family! And it's still so early, I don't know if Xiang's family is just having breakfast, will he come to the door so rashly, will it disturb Xiang's family's meal? Guo looked at the back of his grandson who had disappeared, and said justice to Qu Laoguo, who was sitting beside him.

"Hey, it's okay, I've been in contact with the villagers of Taohua Village in the past few days, they are all simple people, they won't mind this little thing, maybe your grandson will come to the door, and the family will warmly entertain your grandson to the table!" No problem! Qu Lao Guogong said with a smile.

Hearing what he said, Guo's eyes swept at him, "It's just that you're an old and cheeky person, and you've been eating and drinking at the homes of the villagers in Peach Blossom Village these days, right?!" ”

"Hehe..." Qu Lao Guogong was recognized by his old wife at a glance, and he didn't speak, only stretched out his hand and scratched his head and smiled.

He was used to mixing with the villagers when he was marching and fighting, and it was common to eat at the homes of the enthusiastic villagers! He also retreated later, no longer fighting, and was recalled by His Majesty to Beijing to seal the country, so he didn't have the opportunity to contact those villagers.

Now that I have come to this simple peach blossom village, I don't know how comfortable Qu Lao Guogong is these days!

In Beijing, he is always tied, he can't do anything, and if he speaks loudly, he will be sued by the imperial history, and coming to this peach blossom village is the right one for him! And he thinks it's quite suitable for Xiang Bao, if he continues to be in Beijing, maybe Xiang Bao will be damaged by those gentlemen, in this Peach Blossom Village, they are all simple little dolls, who can take him badly? !

He see, Xiang Bao is not bad if he doesn't bring others badly!

However, Qu Lao Guogong naturally didn't dare to say these things to his wife, and if he said it, his wife would have trouble with himself again.

The old Xiang family here is really welcome to the door-to-door of the song.

They all gave up their places to let him and the big fu behind him serve breakfast, and Lao Xiangtou and Lao Jiang also wanted Xiao Jiang to get a few more delicious things and add some dishes.

The farm has passed, and the old Xiang family has resumed their previous food, but after all, it is much richer than before, and the grain has just been harvested!

Although it is June, there are still wild vegetables nowadays, and in the morning, the Yan Wang family took advantage of the morning when they were clothed, and picked a lot of bitter herbs on the slope of the nearby stream and some camellia and brought them back after washing.

When the bitter herbs were fresh, they blanched them, put them in thin rings, and mixed them with a little lard, vinegar and salt to taste.

Seeing a few plates of cold salad on the table, Qu Xiang's eyes lit up slightly, and he hurriedly stopped Xiao Jiang's steps to go to the kitchen to add more vegetables, "Uncle Jiang, don't be busy, I only came out after eating at home." ”

Hearing him say this, Xiao Jiang stopped and looked at his mother-in-law and father-in-law, not knowing what to do.

"Then the little young master also sit down and use some with the maids, this bitter herb is freshly picked, and it also has a unique taste." When Old Jiang saw that his eyes lit up slightly when he saw the bitter vegetables on the table, he knew that this little young master might not have eaten wild vegetables in the countryside, so he invited him to sit down and eat together.

"Then you're welcome!" Qu Xiang was really interested in this wild vegetable, and hurriedly sat down in the position that Xiang Tiange gave him up, and then asked Dafu to take out the gourd cake and put it on the table next to him, and said to the old Jiang family on their side: "This is the gourd cake made by the cook in my family, you can also try it, my grandmother said, this gourd cake is very good for the stomach!" ”

Old Jiang nodded and smiled.

Xiang Tiange glanced at the pastry on the table, and asked Qu Xiang beside her curiously, "Is this cake a medicine?" ”

Listening to her words, Qu Xiang was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

This is a pastry, how can it be medicine?

Xiang Tiange asked, "If that's not medicine, why is it good for the stomach?" ”

“... Could it be that it is made of gourd? Qu Xiang replied a little hesitantly, although he knew that this was a pastry made of gourd, but why it was good for the stomach, he really didn't know, and no one told him!

"I see! This is called a gourd, and it must be a medicine, so making it into a pastry will have a good effect on the stomach! This medicine called gourd is really good, and it can also be made into sweet pastries, but it is not bitter medicine! ”

Xiang Tiange's eyes were bright, and in her previous impression, the medicine was very bitter and bitter.

She was very interested in this medicine that could be made into sweet pastries, so she took the chopsticks in her little hand and put a chopstick cold salad bitter herb in the bowl in front of Qu Xiang, and said to him: "Taste the bitter herbs mixed by my aunt, it's delicious!" Your chef won't be able to make it taste as good as my aunt! ”
