Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 84 Someone Comes From Home (Tip and Update)
Yang Weibo worked harder than before, and when he returned home at night, he brought back twice as many reeds as he had in the morning.

Mrs. Yuan has come back, and is drying the mushrooms picked today and some mushrooms on the east steps.

Seeing Chunqiu and the others walk in, Yuan directly greeted Huzi and Chunqiu.

"Mother, what's the matter?" Chunqiu noticed Yuan's movements, and ran over dragging the tiger.

Yang Weibo carried a pile of reeds to the main house.

"This is for you, mother forgot before." Yuan picked up two wild persimmons and handed them to Chunqiu and Huzi.

"This is... a wild persimmon." Chunqiu looked at the not yet fully red persimmon in his hand with a look of surprise.

"That's right, didn't Niuniu ask last time? As a result, my mother forgot when she was in a hurry. This time, my mother went to the mountain and picked two for you. But these persimmons are not ripe enough, so you can't eat the skin. Eat the inside." The persimmon meat is fine." Yuan Shi was afraid that the two of them would just open their mouths and bite, so she asked.

Chunqiu pinched the persimmons that were still a little hard, and replied with a smile, "Mother, I go to the small kitchen to eat with sugar."

"I want it too, I want it too," Hu Zi quarreled after hearing it from the side.

"Little ghost, let's go!" Yuan Shi smiled and nodded Chunqiu's little nose, and let the two go.

Chunqiu and Huzi ran directly into the small kitchen, picked up the copper spoon in the cupboard, and scooped up the persimmons. After the persimmon skin was thrown away, Chunqiu spread sugar on the flesh of the persimmons, and then had a meal with Huzi. I ate it one bite at a time.

The wild persimmons were not that big, and the two of them ate them quickly. After a while, there was only one skin left from the persimmons. The skins of the persimmons were eaten by tigers before they were old, and they threw them directly into the chicken rack.

"Mother, what shall we have for dinner?" Chunqiu picked up the handkerchief in his bosom and wiped the corners of his mouth, then asked Yuan Shi who was behind him.

"How about drinking mushroom soup? Mother will bake you scallion pancakes." Yuan Shi chose the mushroom in her hand and replied to Chunqiu.

"Yeah, okay," Chunqiu nodded.

"Okay, Qiu'er, go to the backyard and pick a bunch of green onions for mother," Yuan Shi directly ordered.

"Hey..." Chunqiu is fine anyway, so he responded directly, then turned around and walked to the backyard...

The backyard is the main source of the Yang family’s green vegetables. When Chunqiu walked to the backyard, he looked at it first, then bent down and pulled a few green onions along the wall, scraped off the soil from the roots of the onions, and kept the white of the green onions to serve with Yang Li’s. Dip it in bean paste and eat it, and save the remaining scallion leaves for Yuan to make scallion pancakes.

Because Mrs. Yang and Li are not at home, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Yuan have not eaten together for a long time. Whether it is breakfast or dinner, they all eat in their own room.

Yuan took the green onion leaves picked by her daughter, picked up the kitchen knife on the chopping board, chopped them into pieces, put them into the reconciled noodles, and kneaded vigorously, then poured oil into the pot, and rolled the reconstituted noodles with a rolling pin. The scallion pancakes fell directly to the bottom of the warmed oil pan. Yuan’s pancakes were rolled thinly, and they were turned over with a spatula, revealing the already golden side, dotted with emerald green scallions. Looking at Chunhua, who was burning beside the fire, she swallowed her saliva.

"Okay, don't look at it, turn on the fire quickly, and it'll be baked right away." Yuan Shi took advantage of the gap between the pancakes to notice Chunqiu who was staring blankly at the side, and joked.

Chunhua wasn't embarrassed by what her mother said, but instead looked proud, "Isn't the cake baked by my mother delicious?"

Turning over the scallion pancakes in the pan, Yuan smiled at Chunqiu, "It can make my mother happy."

"What I'm saying is the truth." Chunqiu looked at Yuan Shi with a grin, while adding fire to the stove.

The mother and daughter were gossiping while cooking. After the scallion pancakes came out of the pan, Yuan did not clean up the oil in the pan, but added some more. When the oil boiled, he poured half a scoop of cold water, and then Then cut the washed mountain mushrooms into slices and threw them into the pot, put salt, soy sauce, and amplify the ingredients... Finally, they were directly filled out of the pots that Chunqiu had prepared a long time ago.

Chunqiu was holding a bowl of scallion pancakes, and Yuan Shi was holding a bowl of mountain mushroom soup. The two walked back to the house quickly. Huzi and Yang Weibai were starving. , Huzi started screaming a long time ago, and Yuan Shi, who came in later, was startled.

The mountain mushrooms were just picked by Yuan’s today. He was afraid that they would not be enough to eat, and Yuan’s specially added an extra one. The fresh and tender mushrooms are paired with fresh and thick soup, and the golden scallion pancakes are added. After eating two, she and Huzi couldn't straighten their backs, and lay on the kang with their stomachs supported.

"Weibai, listen... what's going on outside?" Yuan Shi and Yang Weibai hadn't finished eating yet, Yuan Shi was drinking the delicious mountain mushroom soup while eating the scallion pancake in the bowl, and suddenly heard the noise outside. There was a loud noise, and Yuan Shi directly poked Yang Weibo who was beside him, and signaled him not to eat it yet, and to take a look quickly, there was only their second room and the eldest room of the Westinghouse in this house, so it couldn't be the eldest room's business.

Yang Weibo was stunned by Yuan Shi's stabbing, and quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and listened carefully with his ears sideways, but found that he didn't really hear it. After Yuan Shi finished speaking, she stood up directly, opened the door curtain and walked out.

Both Chunqiu and Huzi were lying on the kang, looking up to the window, Chunqiu naturally heard it more clearly than Yuan Shi, Chunqiu carefully raised his eyes and glanced at Yuan Shi who was still eating, and then peeked out secretly, according to From what she heard, it is estimated that her uncle and mother fought with him.

Yang Weibo came back soon, and Chunqiu couldn't hear the sound in the yard, curled his lips, and lay down like a corpse again.

"What's the matter?" Yuan raised her eyes and winked at the window, then turned her head to look at Yang Weibo who walked in.

"It's okay, it's not that I went to cut reeds before, my sister-in-law saw it, and asked for two bundles, saying that she wanted to make a reed mat, but when my brother came back and saw it, she wanted to send it back to us, but my sister-in-law didn't want to, so...then we started arguing After Yang Weibo finished speaking, he picked up the unfinished scallion pancakes and started eating.

After hearing this, Yuan Shi straightly said, "This big brother is too, and it's not a valuable thing. If you give it, give it, what else do you want?"

Then he said, "Then what did you say about this matter? Big Brother is really back? Do you want it?"

Yang Weibo took a sip of the mountain mushroom soup, and shook his head, "No way, this reed is not a valuable thing. Besides, I brought back three bundles this afternoon, which is enough for our family, so I don't want it."

Yuan Shi nodded, "You're right, it's fine if you don't, otherwise my sister-in-law will be more careful..."

"Okay, isn't it all right? Let's eat quickly, this soup is getting cold..." Yuan Shi directly picked up the spoon in the basin and scooped it up for Yang Weibo.

Chunqiu lay face-on on the kang, and after listening to the conversation between the two of Yuan, she didn't know what to say. Her aunt, how much is it, why is she greedy again!

The next morning, Yang Weibo got up and sat on the east steps to weave the reed mat. Yang Weibo weaved the reed mat quickly. It took only two days to weave the reed mat. With Yuan's help, the reed mat that had been used for a year It was replaced with a new one, and the unused reed mat was chopped up and burned.

These two days, Chunqiu has been busy helping Yuan's to make nets. The nets are similar to those modern pendants. This is something Yuan has brought back from the shop in the town. Apart from picking tea leaves, Yuan is making them in the house every day. Laying, Chunqiu looked at these colorful threads and felt very itchy, so he went directly to work with Yuan Shi. Laying is not difficult, although the cost is not ridiculous, but you can make several threads a day, which is more cost-effective than embroidering purses and handkerchiefs Well, even her aunt has recently become obsessed with networking and doesn't care about her.

Time went forward a few days, September 28.Spring and Autumn and their family had two special guests.

When the door was knocked, Chunqiu was chatting with Yuan Shi in the room, Chunqiu was immersed in the chatting and couldn't extricate himself, naturally he couldn't hear the knocking at the door, but Yuan's ears were so sharp that he couldn't hear it at first. Really, Yuan Shi had to put down the half-tapped net in his hand, turned his ear and listened carefully, "Qiuer, go out and open the door, I'm afraid someone is coming." The spring and autumn along the edge of the Kang.

Chunqiu was a little dazed when Yuan Shi pushed her away. Seeing her daughter's dazed look, Yuan Shi directly stretched out her hand and pointed to the door, "Go and open the door, don't be dazed, mother, go and collect these nets."

"Hey" Chunqiu responded, then jumped off the ground, straightened the thread on his body, and ran out.

Yuan Shi also went down to the ground, put the colored threads and ties on the kang into a small basket, and then put them into the cabinet in the room and locked them up...

Today is a sunny day, and only Yuan Shi and Chunqiu are at home. Gu Shi took Chunhua sisters up the mountain again in the morning. I heard that fungus and mushrooms were sold well in the previous market, so Gu Shi is carrying baskets besides making nettles. Go up the mountain to pick fungus and mushrooms.

Hu Zi and Xiao Shitou ran away early in the morning, the boy liked to make trouble, and Yuan didn't care, just told him to come back for lunch. Brother Yang Weimin ran to Heishan every day these days, saying that it was a new wild animal that appeared on Heishan recently. few.

The wooden door at the door was knocked rhythmically, and Chunqiu shouted "Don't knock, I'll be here soon" as he ran. As soon as the words fell, there was no sound at the door, Chunqiu paused, and ran over again.

The door opened, and Chunqiu stood in the door, showing a small head, tilting his head and looking at the two people in front of him, he asked, "Excuse me, are you okay?"

In front of him were two people, one big and one small, one of them was a middle-aged man, dressed as a scholar in a green shirt and long robe, with a beautiful beard, he looked like a middle-aged handsome uncle.

Beside him was a boy of about 9 years old, who was dressed in the same clothes as his father, except that there was a blue jade pendant around his waist, which looked extraordinary at first glance.

When the man heard Chunqiu's words, he was taken aback for a moment, then bent down to look at Chunqiu, and said with a smile, "Is the young lady from this family? In Mingfeng next week, this is the dog Zhou Huaiyan." After finishing speaking, the man pointed at the boy beside him, The boy then bent down and raised his hands, Chunqiu nodded in salute, and the man continued, "We, father and son, are here for the sake of our thatched cottage. I wonder if Mrs. Yuan is at home?" Zhou Mingfeng asked directly.

Looking for a mother?Chunqiu thought in his heart that he came here because of the matter of this herbal hall, so it can only be related to Ganoderma lucidum. Thinking of this, Chunqiu raised his face, and his innocent childish voice had a soft taste, "At home, mother is at home. Please come inside." Chunqiu turned aside and let the two people at the door come in.

"My mother is in the opposite room, please come in." Chunqiu pointed to the room where Yuan Shi was, and said with a smile.

"If that's the case, I would like to thank the little lady for your guidance." Zhou Mingfeng stroked his beard, and said, "Please ask the little lady to take care of the dog, and come when you go down. By the way, Qingfeng, come in quickly with the gift." Zhou Mingfeng He shouted at the door, and then a young man dressed as a servant came in bending over with both hands full of presents.

"Your inside please"

"Little lady is polite"

The two had a polite meal, and finally Zhou Mingfeng led the boy named Qingsong in.

From the beginning to the end, Chunqiu had no idea of ​​following the past, because she smelled the same fragrance from the man as on Dr. Zhou's body. It is much richer than that of Dr. Zhou, this is because the herbs he has been in contact with are of higher grade, and the aroma of the medicine will be stronger.

Just like the extremely quiet Mei Zhengtai after the man left, the little Zhengtai's body is also full of light herbal fragrance. In Chunqiu's previous life, he was a student of Chinese herbal medicine, and he was exposed to these Chinese herbal medicines all year round. He was also very sensitive to the medicinal fragrance. She can also guess the identity of the person, it has something to do with the herbal hall, and the fragrance of medicine is strong on her body, maybe it is the owner of the herbal hall?Chunqiu smiled inwardly, but later, after she knew the identities of the two, she gave her own guess a thumbs up, she was so prescient.

Chunqiu slanted his eyes and secretly looked at Meizhengtai in front of him. She looked good, but she was too quiet, except that the two accidentally looked at each other and then smiled, and stopped talking!What to do?Chunqiu shouted wildly in his heart, and finally couldn't help taking Mei Zhengtai to see the medicinal materials she made in the air, um, only in this way can the two of them communicate.

"Well, this is... wolfberry, but it's not ripe yet, and the efficacy is not as good as mature ones." Zhou Huaiyan squatted beside Chunqiu, reached out to pick up the dried wolfberry on the reed mat, and frowned.

"This is autumn wolfberry, which is not yet ripe. Daddy has felt a little sore in his waist and knees in the past two days, so he picked some and prepared to make medicinal wine." Chunqiu looked at the wolfberry in Zhou Huaiyan's hand. Picked by my mother, soaking wine with wolfberry can not only strengthen the body, but also relieve fatigue, improve eyesight and nourish the liver. Recently, Yang Weibo has not rested, so Chunqiu thought of drinking wine with wolfberry.

"Tang Mengshen's "Diet Therapy Materia Medica" records: strengthen the tendons and resist aging, eliminate wind, nourish the bones and muscles, benefit people, and relieve fatigue

, little sister, you are right, wolfberry wine is really good." Zhou Huaiyan tilted his head and looked at Chunqiu with a full face of praise.

"Grandpa Zhou taught me it all." Chunqiu smiled embarrassedly, and said to herself, she has memorized this stuff by heart in modern times.

"No, it's also due to my little sister, not everyone can use what they have learned." Zhou Huaiyan was no longer as cautious as before because of wolfberries.

"I'm **** Qiu." Chunqiu still felt that it was weird to be called a younger sister by a young lady, so he directly told the person in front of him his name.

"Then let me call you Qiu'er." Zhou Huaiyan thought for a while, but still swallowed the title of sister Qiu'er, well, he could tell that the little sister in front of him didn't like him calling her that.

"Okay, then I'll call you...Brother Huaiyan." Chunqiu directly erased the other brother. There is no way, brother Huaiyan, she feels like a romantic heroine.

"Okay." Zhou Huaiyan narrowed his eyes, looking better.

"Brother Huaiyan, come with me, my family has a lot of traditional Chinese medicine, look over there..."

The two started chatting and chatted a lot about the pharmacology and efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine. When Zhou Mingfeng came out, Zhou Huaiyan was already of the same age and had a sense of sympathy for each other. Man, what a treat.

When they finally left, because of Zhou Huaiyan’s mother’s affairs, the father and son still stayed for a while, so Zhou Huaiyan made an appointment with Chunqiu to find him at the herbal cottage in the town. After all, although she knows a lot about Chinese herbal medicine, she is still not familiar with how to mix it. Now that such a little master is taking her with her, she can't wait for it.
