Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 110
Rong Jiu made a simple distillation equipment with bamboo and small pottery jars to extract camphor and cinnamon oil, and then boiled it slowly over low heat, stirring constantly in one direction, and when the flame was turned off, the ointment cooled. , then slowly pour in mint juice and wormwood juice, stir evenly, pour into a ceramic bowl, and put it in a ventilated and cool place to solidify.

By the time the plaster was boiled, it was already sunset and dusk.

Xiao Qingluo and Shen Rui squatted aside, their eyes sparkling: "Third Aunt, is this the anti-itch ointment?"

Rong Jiu smiled: "It has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxification, relieving itching and pain, Brother Rui, you don't have to be afraid of mosquitoes biting you anymore."

"Great." Shen Rui jumped up happily.

"Jiu Niang," Aunt Song came over with a basket of fruits.

"Ma'am is here, come in and sit down." Rong Jiu pointed to the chair beside her and smiled.

Aunt Song sat down beside her, and asked with a smile: "Jiu Niang, I heard that you are going to repair the house, do you want someone?"

Rong Jiu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Ma'am, you came just in time. I was going to find you. I want you to ask if Second Brother Lu is free recently. I want to ask him to repair my house. Many people say that Lu The house built by the second brother is not only beautiful in appearance, but also extremely stable, and it cannot be submerged even by floods."

Someone praised her son so much, and Aunt Song was delighted: "When the summer harvest is over, the work at home is almost done. Didn't I hear that you are going to repair the house, so you came here brazenly."

"Auntie, tell Second Brother Lu that the work will start after the summer harvest is over. I don't know about the salary. I will pay as much as Second Brother Lu usually helps others repair their houses."

"If he dares to take your money indiscriminately, see if I don't beat him to death."

Rong Jiu burst out laughing.

When it was dark, Lu Hui came back from working in the fields, and when he heard that Rong Jiu asked him to repair the house, he was overjoyed: "Mom, I'll go and say hello to my cousins ​​right away, and tell them not to do any more work during this time. "

"Let's go after dinner."

"Don't eat, come back and eat."

Aunt Song's natal family is in the next village, not very far away, so he let him go.

At night, when Rong Jiu was teaching Xiao Qingluo how to do needlework, a pigeon suddenly flew in from the window, flapped its wings, and landed by her hand.

"Third Aunt, there are pigeons." Xiao Qingluo said pleasantly.

With joy in his heart, Rong Jiu took off the note tied to the pigeon's leg, but there were only a few simple words: Are you feeling better?

Rong Jiu pouted: "I don't understand the style!"

Xiao Qingluo leaned over: "What did third uncle write?"

Rong Jiu turned to one side: "I won't show you."

The pigeon cooed twice, and Xiao Qingluo urged: "Third Aunt, please write back quickly, Third Uncle must be waiting."

"No return!"

Rong Jiu snorted, but didn't say a word of love, so why answer!

She was about to put the note away, but she caught a glimpse of the words "missing you" at the end.

Rong Jiumei smiled: "It's not too bad."

Seeing her looking at the note, Xiao Qingluo smirked for a long time, and couldn't help covering her lips and laughing.

"Wait until you start to fall in love, and see how I can laugh at you." Rong Jiu said angrily, found a small brocade box, and put the note in it.

"Third Aunt, you really don't reply?"

"Your third uncle, this piece of rotten wood, still needs to be carved, so don't come back!" Rong Jiu touched the pigeon's feathers, and raised his hand to let it fly away, "Go back."

The pigeon spread its wings and flew away. Xiao Qingluo looked at the news about it in the night and sighed, "Third Uncle didn't receive the letter, so he must not be able to sleep. Third Uncle is so pitiful."

Rong Jiu flexed his fingers and patted her forehead lightly: "Your third uncle said that you must concentrate on reading and practicing calligraphy."

Xiao Qingluo stuck out her tongue, "giggled" and said with a smile: "Third Aunt really listens to Third Uncle."
