Reborn farmhouse busy farming

Chapter 263

Luo Baisu was stunned, and those who followed Wei Que to see the excitement were also stunned.

When did Wei Que, who is arrogant and domineering and reticent, become so talkative?Bought after a barbecue?Everyone has an illusion that they always feel that they have discovered something extraordinary.

Wei Que didn't go to the mountain to make trouble anymore, Luo Tian promised him that the barbecue would not be broken, Wei Que thought that since she promised her fried steak, stewed meat and barbecue, then she would have all three, Luo Tian had a black hair, At this time, Wei Que suddenly became shrewd.

Because the distinguished guests came, there was rice and noodles at home, but there was no meat, so I invited a few local veteran hunters to hunt some game on the mountain, mostly small animals such as roe deer and roe deer, who had been hungry all winter. They were all skinny and had little meat. Later, Cheng Sheng took his men and followed the hunters up the mountain. He just hunted three wild boars and came back. Two of them were sent to the barracks for tooth sacrifice to the soldiers, and one was a smaller wild boar. Went to the county government office to entertain Wei Que, because it was just in time for noon, Cheng Sheng stayed for dinner and returned to the barracks in the afternoon.

The wild boar was not big in the first place, a single head accounted for a lot of weight, and there was not much meat left.The most tender piece of ribs was cut off by Luo Tiandu, and fried into a delicious steak, each small piece was just a taste, Luo Tiandu's own portion was donated to Wei Que, and the pig's trotters were chopped They were cut into pieces and marinated, ready to be marinated for dinner at night, and a piece was reserved for making dumplings with minced meat stuffing, and another piece was baked for lunch, and the rest were marinated.

Anyway, the county government was broken down like that, so there was nothing to pay attention to. Mrs. Fang cleared up an open space in the yard and came out, lit a fire, skewered wild pork, and slowly roasted it on the fire.

Luo Tian has been porridge and pickled vegetable cakes since he arrived in Yi County, and now the smell is coming together, and his stomach growls, not only her, but Luo Baisu can't stay in the back yard anymore, so he found a The reason came out, and he said: "It smells so good." After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves, forked a piece of meat and roasted it by himself.

Cheng Sheng was familiar with Luo's family, and when he saw that Luo Baisu was grilling meat by himself, he also rolled up his sleeves and said, "Do it yourself, and you will have enough food and clothing."

Luo Tiandu handed them the prepared sauce: "While brushing the sauce, grill it." The sauce is the gravy she just made, and when she brushed it on, the smell of the meat was overflowing, and the oil dripped down, attracting a lot of attention. People are salivating.

The yard was filled with the smell of barbecue. Luo Zijin smelled the smell, ran over with short legs, and threw himself on Luo Tiandu's back: "Sister, meat."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll bake it for you to eat." Luo Tiandu really loved and hated this little ancestor, worried that it would be too dangerous for him to run around by the fire, so he said, "You go with Ding first." Fifth brother is going to play, and the meat will be grilled before I ask you to eat, okay?"

Ding Wu came over to lead Luo Zijin.

After the doctor came to the house, Luo Tiandu asked the doctor to take Ding Wu's pulse, and when he knew that the child was healthy and had no symptoms, he asked him to play with Luo Zijin.

Luo Zijin didn't know Ding Wu well at the moment, and lay on her back, groaning and refusing to talk to Ding Wu, Wei Que glanced at him, the child was so scared that he didn't say anything, and obediently followed Ding Wu Five went out to play.

Luo Tian was a little dumbfounded.

After Luo Zijin left, Wei Que squatted beside her, waited for a while, and asked her with a stern face, "Can I eat?"

Luo Tian glanced at him: "Wait a while, it's not cooked yet."

Wei Que glared at her dissatisfied, walked away, and after a while, came to her again and asked, "Can I eat?"

Luo Tian was frantically turning the meat and brushing the sauce, while answering him: "It's not cooked yet, wait a little longer."

After a while, Wei Que came over again and asked, "Isn't it alright?"

"Not yet." Luo Tiandu replied.

Wei Que turned around and walked up to her again. Just as he was about to speak, Luo Tiandu said first, "I'm not familiar."

Wei Que was also dissatisfied, and asked, "General, you also said that you only waited for a while, but you have been waiting for quite a while."

Luo Tian was so irritated by the question, his brows stood upright: "If you are familiar, you are familiar. If you are not familiar, you are not familiar. If you are familiar, you are familiar even if you don't come to ask. If you are not familiar, you are still not familiar even if you ask me." .”

Wei Que said angrily: "I just asked if the meat can be eaten. Where did you get so many cooked and uncooked meat?"

Everyone almost burst out laughing.

Fang led Xiang Lan and Luo Ming to make dumplings in the kitchen, and heard the conversations of everyone in the yard clearly.She was almost passed out by Luo Tiandu before, but now seeing other people being fooled like her, her stomach hurts from laughing, and she thinks that Wei Que's current appearance is a bit cute, not at all as domineering and cold as rumored .

Finally, the meat was grilled until it sizzled, dripping oil, and seeing that it was cooked, Luo Tiandu put the meat skewers on the plate, handed it to Wei Que and said, "It's ready, eat."

Wei Que was not polite either, he took it and started eating.The taste is really good, the outer layer is crispy and delicious, but the inner layer is extremely tender, because the sauce is constantly brushed during roasting, the taste of the sauce penetrates into the meat, it is very delicious.

Wei Que gobbled it up twice, it wasn't enough at all, the skewer in Luo Tiandu's hand was just skewered, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait, Luo Tian felt that this was too slow, so he handed him the skewer in his hand , indicating to him to bake it himself, and then went to see how many dumplings Fang had made.

"Why are you here? Isn't there barbecue outside?" Fang asked her.

"The roasting is too slow, Mr. Wei may not be able to wait, mother, cook him a bowl of dumplings first." To save him from always asking her if the meat is done.

Fang thought of the conversation in the yard just now, smiled, got up and cleaned the pot, cooked a pot of dumplings for Wei Que to eat, then calmed down, she was finally able to roast her wild boar quietly.

Although the barbecue is delicious, you can only eat it when it is fresh. If you eat too much, it will be a bit greasy. There are still a few people who can eat barbecue as a meal like Wei Que.Luo Baisu and the old men each ate a few skewers to satisfy their cravings, and then stopped, but Fang's cooked dumplings, each ate a dozen or so, and they were full.

The old man Liu who claimed to be a farmer, after eating enough, spread out in the yard to bask in the sun, and asked Luo Baisu, "Now that Yi County is full of devastation, what is Lord Luo's plan?"

Luo Baisu asked Fang Shi to serve tea, and said: "Our Daqing Dynasty is still based on farming, and spring will begin soon, and Ba Xun's mansion sent another three thousand shi of grain. The most important thing is to take advantage of the spring plowing now. It's still early, it's serious to open up wasteland and grow food."

Old man Liu also nodded: "I've been idle for the past few days, and I've wandered around. The fields here are suitable for growing things. Compared with the thin land in Yao County, I don't know how much better it is. It has been abandoned for many years. It's really a pity." At this point, old man Liu remembered something and asked again, "The day I came, I saw that the outside of the city seemed to be digging trenches. What is this repairing?" Say it is to repair the city wall, but it doesn't matter. It's too similar, where there is someone who digs earth to build a city wall, and it will fall down as soon as he pushes it. It's really too childish.

Luo Baisu said with a smile: "This county has been abandoned for many years, and the city walls have collapsed. I originally wanted to organize people to repair the city walls, but I didn't have enough manpower and tools, so I had to come up with a way to survive the New Year's Eve. Day." Speaking of this, Luo Baisu was a little worried, there were not enough manpower, and if the spring began to open up wasteland, there would be no one on the city defense side.

Cheng Sheng glanced at Wei Que and said, "Master, I have an idea about the manpower."

When Luo Baisu heard this, he became interested and asked him, "What good idea do you have?"

Cheng Sheng said with a smile: "This time I brought 300 people here, and the settlement has just been settled in the past two days. After I go back, I will send 100 people over to collect some stones on the mountain and help repair the city wall. You can also concentrate on spring plowing. This matter is important."

Luo Baisu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "It's just right, but you're just here, and you've sent someone over here, so how can you tell me if you ask me from the military defense department?"

Wei Que, who had been concentrating on eating barbecue, suddenly interjected at this moment: "Ba Xun's military defense department is now led by Xie Yuan, right?"

Cheng Sheng said: "It's Mr. Jie Yuanjie."

"That's okay. When I go back, I will send a message to Xie Yuan, and ask him to bring 200 people over to help reclaim the wasteland." Wei Que said.

Luo Baisu was really relieved now, he saluted Wei Que, and said: "So, on behalf of the people of Yi County, I thank Lord Wei first."

Luo Tian frowned when he heard this, and asked: "Then how much do we have to pay them a day?" She was worried about 300 people, even if each of them was only paid [-] Wen, the total would still be [-] cents. It will take two or three months to complete the repair of the city walls of Yi County. Three tangs a day, three months counting, it is [-] tangs. This is not counting food and drink, which is not a small amount of expenses.

Old man Liu stared at Luo Tiandu for a long time, and said with a smile: "The little lady in the house is a good housekeeper, the first thing I think of is wages."

The old man surnamed Gan who claimed to be a blacksmith also smiled and said: "Don't worry, little lady, Master Wei is willing to help, why would you ask your father to pay for it, besides, soldiers are paid, but they don't come to help with work, every day Drilling in the barracks is the same as eating, sleeping and paying money, Xie Yuan was still a lieutenant under Lord Wei back then, if Lord Wei opened his mouth, Xie Yuan will definitely not ask your father for wages for this."

Wei Que also squinted at her.

Luo Tian was teased by others, and the expression on his face was embarrassing, but it can't be blamed on her, everyone knows that the county government in Yi County is poor and white, and no matter what they do, they have to pay the top money, this time it's good luck, Hugging Wei Que's thigh, the money and food were settled smoothly, but these were the only things that could be spent in Yi County, so she asked cautiously what the money could be used for.

Luo Baisu then rescued Luo Tiandu, saying: "It's a newcomer, and I don't even have an accountant. The family used to be in charge of the little one. This kid is used to worrying, so don't make fun of him."

Old man Liu laughed, and said: "Master Luo is so lucky, the young lady is so capable, she really does not give way to a woman."

Luo Tian listened to them talking for a long time, and found that the ones who spoke were Old Man Liu and Old Man Gan. Que still looked a little scared, so he guessed that among the few, old man Liu and old man Gan were probably the most prestigious, and the other two were probably deputy or something.

She didn't ask what the identities of these old men were, and she always felt that she was happier now that she didn't know anything.
