Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Old Zhou Tou caught her, "Girl——"

The father and daughter hugged happily for a long time, and the old Zhou Tou praised her, "Manbao is getting more and more beautiful, and the clothes are also beautiful, and they are warm and fluffy."

Man Bao showed him, "This is a cloak, made of fox fur."

She said: "Father, Fourth Brother and I bought a lot of fox fur and made a fox fur coat for you, mother, and sister-in-law. It's warm."

Old Zhou was distressed and suspicious, "I bought it with your fourth brother? When did your fourth brother become so filial?"

Bai Shan and Bai Erlang also arrived. They jumped off their horses and first saluted with the villagers. Hearing this, he couldn't help but smile, and Bai Erlang interjected: "I didn't buy it with Brother Zhou, I bought it with Brother Zhou. I bought it, but Brother Zhou said he didn’t make any money, so he sold it at a low price.”

Old Zhou Tou understood it, couldn't help blowing his beard and staring, and muttered: "The fourth son is promising, and he has learned to earn his own sister's money. Why, he can't honor his parents? What about others? Where are they going?" gone?"

Bai Shan pulled Bai Erlang, and Bai Erlang laughed and turned around and ran away, towards his father who was standing by the bridge.

Bai Dalang had already got out of the car to greet his father, his face turned pale, seeing his younger brother exulting like this, he couldn't help shaking his head, he really didn't understand why he got so much energy.

After saluting, Bai Shan and old Zhou Tou also went home, and everyone went back to their respective homes.

The mule carts pulling the luggage in the back were loaded according to each family, one for each family, and the cart loaded with the old Zhou’s luggage went directly to the old Zhou’s house. With the help of the villagers to unload the luggage, Zhou Wulang dug out a box, Open it, and there are all kinds of wrapped snacks and candies inside.

They bought all of them in Mianzhou City, he handed the box to his second sister-in-law, and Feng began to unpack the snacks and candies for everyone to share.

The villagers were not too polite. After collecting the snacks and candies, they turned around and found their children, and gave them to eat, and some told them to take some back for the elderly to taste.

They didn't leave either, they just stood in the yard talking to Lao Zhou's family, mainly to talk to Man Bao.

They are very interested in the capital and want to know what the capital looks like.

Wu Wulang had already gone to find his wife and children, and Man Bao was surrounded by everyone. Everyone asked in a hurry, such as whether the gate of the capital is really eight feet high, and whether Man Bao really saw the emperor. ...

Man Bao also liked talking to them. After taking off her cloak, she moved a small stool and sat next to her father to brag, oh no, to tell the truth.

She said that the capital city is much bigger than Luojiang County, and any square is larger than Luojiang County. There are four streets in one square, with shops along the street and houses in the back. Think about it, there is only one street in Luojiang County. ...

There are many delicious things in the capital, and there are also many beautiful things...

The villagers listened with gusto, and Lao Zhoutou was the most supportive. Feng tried to interrupt several times but couldn't get in, so he simply didn't bother them, turned around and pulled Sanya over, and moved them to everyone's house according to the label on the box. to go.

Someone in the village saw them moving boxes of things back into the house, and they didn't pay much attention to them before, but now they were so hot-eyed, envious and jealous, they couldn't help asking, "Manbao, what are you doing?" What good things did you bring back from the capital?"

Man Bao glanced at it and said: "The fabrics I bought for my parents, as well as the special products of the capital, and some books and medicinal materials. By the way, I bought a lot of medicinal seeds from Jishitang and the drug dealer. You can try planting on the mountain..."

The villagers were surprised and couldn't help asking: "Can medicinal herbs be grown?"

No wonder they were surprised. In their impression, medicinal materials were picked wild from the mountains.

Man Bao said: "I asked, some herbs can be grown, anyway, they are used in mountainous land, these seeds are not very expensive, let's try it, if it can be planted, it will be good, if it can't be planted, it won't hinder anything."

In fact, these seeds were harvested by her entrusting drug dealers and drug farmers. There is no way, many medicinal materials are not included in the encyclopedia of medicinal materials, but basically they are processed in drug shops, and they are no longer active. She can only use these medicinal materials. Write down the name, mark out the medicinal materials that can collect seeds, and then pay the medicine merchants to help collect the seeds.

Otherwise, she only needs one or two raw medicinal herbs, even if she pays a lot, because it is not easy to transport and survive, drug dealers don't like to go to the trouble.

That's why Man Bao turned to consider collecting seeds.

Some herbs have seeds.

But as they said, most of the medicinal materials are picked from the mountains, and they are naturally grown. Not to mention Qili Village, there are very few other places.

As for the old ginger and yam grown in the village, they didn't use them as medicinal materials, because they can be eaten as vegetables.

Only Ligustrum lucidum is a little strange, and they count it as a medicinal herb.

Man Bao said: "Ligustrum lucidum, old ginger, yam, and jujube slices are all commonly used medicinal materials, and the dosage is quite large. Now my fourth brother has decided to take the route in the capital often, so it's okay for you to grow more. .”

Everyone's eyes brightened slightly, the new wheat seeds can no longer be sold at a high price, and people say that even the far north has been replaced with new wheat seeds.

Moreover, due to the bumper harvest and the production of new wheat seeds in the past two years, the price of grain has dropped a bit, but the old ginger that was taken away by Zhou Zhoulang this year, was also sold to Mianzhou, Yizhou and other places with Zhou Zhoulang. The new ginger in exchange for a lot of money.

Moreover, ginger likes sandy land, and it is not easy to grow food in that kind of place, so it is the most suitable place to grow ginger.

As soon as the topic changed, everyone turned to farming, so they didn't have the heart to think about whether there were boxes or not.

"Uncle Jin, your family has planted about twenty jujube trees this year, where did you find the fruit seedlings?"

Old Zhou said: "Erlang found it from outside, I'll ask him later."

"If you ask me, it's better to grow jujube trees. The raw ones are eaten as fruits, and the dried ones can be sold to pharmacies. They can be planted directly on the mountains, which can save a lot of land."

"Man Bao, what kind of seeds did you bring back? Are the medicinal materials expensive?"

Everyone was chattering, and Man Bao replied slowly, knowing that she had never grown these medicinal seeds, and even many medicinal farmers had never grown them, so even if she said she knew how to grow them, everyone was still not very moved. Instead, we discussed how to grow more ginger.

Since Lao Zhou's family said that ginger can be dried and used as medicinal materials in pharmacies, and raw ginger can be preserved for a longer time, everyone began to plant ginger intentionally.

Now it seems that there can be more variety.

Anyway, Qili Village has a lot of dry land, so we can plant less beans and more ginger.

Seeing that the old Zhou's kitchen was about to prepare food, the villagers got up and said goodbye and went home. Old Zhou stayed for a while, and two of them were about to stay to eat, but they were surrounded by people and left.

It's a family reunion, why are you joining in the fun?

As soon as the people left, Zhou Zhoulang closed the door, put away the stools in the yard, and everyone divided into two tables and entered the room for dinner.

After sitting down, old Zhou Tou realized something was wrong. He looked around and asked, "Where are the fourth, sixth and big head? Why aren't they here?"

Everyone: ...Father, is your reaction a bit slow?

see you at eleven o'clock
