Fortunate to know Qing peach noodles

Chapter 295

The villa is a distance away from the capital, and when we reached the foot of the mountain, the sun was slanting westward, and the sunlight was golden, and it was not as hot as it was at noon.

The villa is located on the hillside, surrounded by trees, a piece of emerald green.

At the foot of the mountain are pieces of reclaimed farmland.

The Zhuangzi left by Wei Qing's mother is not only the house on the mountainside, but also the land at the foot of the mountain, which should be based on the contract.

These fields are leased to nearby farmers, who only need to pay the rent on time.

Right now, a large piece of land at the foot of the mountain is used for planting mulberry.It is the season when mulberry trees grow into forests. Under the large green mulberry leaves, there are clusters of ripe red and purple mulberries.

I called the nearby farmers to inquire and found out that this mulberry forest produces a lot of mulberries every year, but few people pick them. The surrounding farmers picked some and went back to make mulberry wine. Most of them were ripened by themselves and fell on the ground. inside.

Wei Qing didn't have the heart to go up the mountain and enter the villa at the moment, seeing this large area of ​​mulberry land, he was very heartbroken.

Let these mature mulberries rot in the ground by themselves, isn't it a waste of money?

However, the number of farmers living nearby is limited, and they are already very busy raising silkworms and growing mulberries, so how can they take care of these mulberries.And it is mainly because these mulberries are not sold when they are picked.

The mulberries are so red that they are black and purple. Although they are delicious to eat, the lips and teeth will be dyed black and purple for a short time after eating. The nobles in the capital don't like this thing.

However, Wei Qing knew that these mulberries had excellent nutritional value and were suitable for both men and women. They could nourish the kidneys and liver, beautify the skin, and have many effects.If you think it is not elegant to eat like this, it can also be used to make wine and jam.

If the prepared jam is properly preserved, it can be stored for a long time. It is also very suitable for making fruit tea and serving snacks on weekdays.

Wei Qing asked the farmers to gather all the nearby farmers, and the farmers learned that Wei Qing was the owner of this place, so they all gathered.

They were all worried that Wei Qing would increase their rent, but no, Wei Qing wanted to spend money to buy mulberries from them, buy all the mulberries in this mulberry forest, and sign a contract, and every year in the future, the mulberries here would be responsible for paying She supplies.

The farmers were overjoyed when they heard the news. It would be better if someone bought it from them than to rot in the field, and they could have an extra income.

Wei Qing and Yin Jing wandered around in this green mulberry forest, Wei Qing said: "I plan to use half of these mulberries to make wine and the other half to make jam. Do you want Dudu Yin to join the gang to make a living together?"

Yin Jing gossiped and said: "You are also a servant in the palace. If the emperor and princess like the things you make, you don't have to worry about having no way out. If you want me to join the gang, are you willing to share my money for free? It's because you are afraid that others will cut off your money with jealousy, so you ask I'm backstage?"

Talking to him was really effortless, Wei Qing smiled and said: "The Yin Dudu will share [-]% of the money earned, how about it?"

Yin Yan looked down at her, neither agreed nor disagreed, and only said for a moment: "You will plan."

Wei Qing turned out of the mulberry forest together with him, and went to the foot of the back mountain to have a look, saying: "The back mountain is backed by the sun, and it is estimated that the crops are not easy to grow. I will go and see if it is suitable for planting some medicinal materials."

Wei Qing left Ah Ying and Yi Lan behind, and negotiated a contract with the farmers.

When the sun slanted to the west, everyone was very excited and brought baskets to the mulberry fields to pick mulberries.

Picking mulberries at the Dragon Boat Festival is exactly the occasion.

The farmers might not notice it, but Wei Qing noticed that there seemed to be other people haunting this mountain.She could find it, and it was impossible for Yin Jing not to notice it, but Yin Zhen's reaction was unusual, which meant that it was his Jin Yiwei who haunted the mountain.

That's right, although he came here very low-key, he couldn't be unprepared.

At dusk and dusk, the farmers carried baskets of freshly picked mulberries to the villa halfway up the mountain.

Wei Qing went up the mountain together with him, and found that although the villa was uninhabited, it was tidy inside.Thinking about those Jinyiwei's visit was not in vain.

Ah Ying weighed the two catties and recorded them in the account one by one. The money for buying mulberries will be cashed in tomorrow.

The villa is surrounded by dense forests, and the inside is very cool. I didn't expect that there is a very cool cellar, which is not a problem to keep fresh for two days.

In order to express his gratitude, the old farmer gave Wei Qing two jars of mulberry wine, saying: "The homemade fruit wine is not very intoxicating, but it's delicious. Miss, try it."

Wei Qing's kindness was hard to turn down, so he kept the wine and thanked him.

After all the farmers went down the mountain and returned home, Ah Ying and Yi Lan handed over the sorted things to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing explained Ah Ying's affairs for tomorrow. Manpower is needed for brewing wine and making jam.You can temporarily hire peasant women from the families of farmers near the foot of the mountain to do it.

Unexpectedly, there is an inner hall in the villa, but the inside of the inner hall is transparent. Looking out at a glance, the field of vision is wide and boundless, and you can see the mountains and the setting sun in the distance.

The two quietly watched the sunset.

Looking carefully towards the side of the sky, it is true that there are layers of clouds and clouds, which seem to blend into a wonderful color, as if the layers are clear and not chaotic.Such glowing clouds reminded her of the same magnificence in the glazed ball.

Wei Qing leaned against the pillar and said softly: "If you go down the mountain and return to the city at this time, the city gate will also be closed, right?"

There is a distance from the capital here, and by the time they arrive at the city gate, it is estimated that the night is thick and the stars are floating.

"Ah."

Wei Qing said: "Then there's no need to worry." She was tired, just in time to take a rest.

Wei Qing didn't expect that today he came to investigate the situation, and he didn't expect to make a rough plan on the first day.Since arriving here in the afternoon, she hasn't stopped to rest.

Seeing the sunset now, my heart is very peaceful.Wei Qing leaned his head on the pillar in the hall, tilted slightly, his pupils seemed to be dyed warm gold, as clear as amber.

The hair on the temples was blown up by the evening wind, and she didn't bother to reach out to stroke it.

Later, the setting sun sank completely into the distant valley little by little, leaving only the clouds on the horizon.The surrounding area also gradually cooled down.

Wei Qing didn't know how long he had been sitting here. The night came quietly, and the indigo sky was gradually darkened by a brush stroke. I ordered mulberry wine, would you like to try it?"

Yilan originally wanted to get something to eat, but all the facilities in the villa are complete, even if there is no fresh food, she can only relax and watch the sunset with Ah Ying.There are plenty of mulberries in the villa, and Yilan doesn't care about it, eating it until her mouth is black.

Later, she decided to go hunting game with Ah Ying in the forest, but she found Jin Yiwei not long after entering, she let out a cry of surprise, and hurriedly dragged Ah Ying to chase after Jin Yiwei, vowing to follow Jin Yiwei.

Because as long as Jin Yiwei is around, they won't be hungry.
