Plane Mall: I became a group favorite by hoarding goods

Chapter 284 284. Why is it you again?

"It's not just about this."

Shen Xingluo said, "The hill behind Zhuangzi is full of red fruits but full of sour taste. Even the villagers don't know how to use it to make candied haws. There are rumors that they are cursed."

The red fruit of candied haws, isn’t that hawthorn?

Cheng Xi froze for a moment, thoughtfully, "It should be a matter of different breeds."

"Variety?"

"That's right, hawthorn is a red fruit. There are more than a dozen varieties of it. Although they all look similar at first glance, they taste very different."

"There are so many kinds of red fruits?"

Shen Xingqi found it novel, "I always thought it was used to make candied haws."

"It's not surprising. Just like the peach grove in our prefecture, there must be five or six kinds of peaches."

Peach is a fruit that everyone often eats. Whether it is nectarine or juicy peach, it is very common in the eyes of everyone.However, red fruit is a wild fruit that is seldom cultivated. On the contrary, no one understands its characteristics, and naturally assumes that it has only one taste.

The sour hawthorn cannot be made into candied haws, and the people will think it is abnormal. In addition, the court official happened to be convicted. The combination of the two coincidences makes sense.

"Sister-in-law, are the red fruits really inedible?"

"It's not sure yet, we have to look at the real thing first."

Even though Cheng Xi said that, he somehow had a clue in his heart.

Even though it has more than a dozen varieties with different tastes, in modern times, people have developed different eating methods of hawthorn according to the degree of sweetness and sourness, ranging from pastries to drinks.

In the eyes of foodies, no hawthorn is innocent.

The carriage soon stopped in front of a Zhuangzi, and the first thing they saw after getting off the carriage was the hawthorn trees all over the mountains.

No way, it's too eye-catching.

"Wow - what a big piece!"

The hawthorn trees are all growing strong, with thick branches stretching everywhere. Now it is the season of ripening, and the small red fruits are crowded and hung on the branches.

At a glance, it was all red.

"Is that too much?"

"Red fruit is high-yielding, and the people around think it's too sour and no one picks it, so there are so many."

Since Zhuangzi was still some distance away from the nearest hawthorn tree, Cheng Xi could not determine its species.

Seeing this, Shen Xingluo told Su Zhan, "Go and pick some later."

"Yes."

"Go ahead."

No one has lived in the Sanjin courtyard for a long time. Since the original servant was also sent out of Beijing with the master's conviction, there is no one to clean it every day, and there has been no buyer to take over it, and it soon fell into disrepair.

However, Shen Xingluo was clearly prepared. When a few people opened the creaking gate and entered, they found that the yard was very clean, and there were only a few yellow leaves that had just fallen with the wind on the ground.

"This subordinate hired a few hard-working tenant farmers to clean up yesterday, and replaced the bedding with new ones. Madam, what orders do you have?"

"It's already very good, let's go around first."

The layout of the courtyards near the capital is similar, the first two entrances are no different from the one in the city, the extra third entrance is for guests to live in, and the east and west wing rooms are still servants’ rooms.

The [-] mu of fertile land attached to Zhuangzi has been leased to the nearby people. From this year onwards, only [-]% of the grain will be sent to Zhuangzi as rent.

Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi had no idea about this, and they didn't plan to farm in the suburbs either.

The reason why I bought Zhuangzi was that apart from having to pass the badger pork in the space over Ming Road, it was also because the secondary courtyard in the city was too small.

"This can be used as a place to stay. If one day you feel bored, how about we come over and stay for a few days?"

"Of course, it feels like a Shenjia village here."

Shen Xingqi found a sense of familiarity in Zhuangzi, and she was the happiest among several people.

"Hey, there seems to be some noise outside?"

Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi also heard it. They were standing in the front yard at this time. When they opened the door and looked out, they saw a familiar figure not far away being besieged by people. Behind him was a luxurious carriage. The guards also fought hard.

"Qu Shaojing?"

"Brother Shen, Madam Shen?!"

When the other party heard the voice, a happy expression appeared on his face.

Cheng Xi was speechless, "Why is it you again?"

How hated is this person?It's fine to be chased and killed wherever he goes, but this time he even got others involved.

She didn't miss Qu Shaoya and Jiang Yuyao who looked panicked on the carriage.

It must have been implicated by him.

"Mrs. Shen, it's very kind of you to be here!"

Sure enough, there is no unparalleled road.

Seeing Cheng Xi, Qu Shaojing was almost ecstatic, "Madam Shen, please help me take care of Miss Jiang and my sister!"

"." The last few words were just added, right?

Now even Shen Xingqi behind her could hear it.

In this assassination, the other party obviously spent their money and did not give up. The number of men in black doubled compared to last time. More than 30 killers surrounded a carriage, and there were only five or six guards in charge of protecting the master. indivual.

In a one-to-many situation, the guards were quickly injured in the siege, and a strong smell of blood gradually filled the air.

However, the Shen family soon realized that something was wrong.

"Didn't the man in black want to kill the young master? Why are some people attacking Miss Jiang? Is it because Miss Jiang is the fiancee of the young master? This is too pitiful!"

"Save people first."

Cheng Xi pulled out the little girl behind him, "It's time to test your actual combat, don't be afraid, just let it go, I'll watch from the side."

Shen Xingqi was just stunned for a moment before she was full of fighting spirit.

"What if someone is broken?"

"Put it down, just save your life."

If she died, it wouldn't be a big problem, I'm afraid that the little girl will have a psychological shadow.

However, Cheng Xi's worries were superfluous after all. As soon as she spoke, she saw Shen Xingqi eager to try, took out the dagger from her waist, and quickly joined the fight.

Cheng Xi asked Wang Shu to support Qu Shaojing, but he himself paid more attention to the safety of the little girl.

This scene was too common for the members of the Shen family, and no one thought it was inappropriate, but the shocked eyes of the two girls in the carriage and Qu Shaojing almost fell out.

Are you sure that the girl who kicked the man in black away is the Second Miss of the Shen family?

How brutal!
This girl is only a little over 15 years old if I remember correctly?With one against three, not only did she not lose the slightest bit of wind, but she also seemed to be crushing, that dagger was about to be played by her!
Master, master!
"No, didn't you say that sister Xingqi just learned martial arts?"

"Yeah, she said last time that she only studied for a few months."

Who can train themselves into a martial arts master in a few months?

What a genius this girl is!
Qu Shaoya was messed up, and Wen Wanru Jiang Yuyao also had a stunned expression at this time, her small mouths were all opened wide, she almost screamed.
