Delicious Delicacy of the Demon Spirit

Cold in thirty-nine, hot in mid-volt.After the Sunshine Festival this year, after two days, Fang Fang quickly entered Zhongfu, which would last for twenty days.Especially in this period of time, the middle volt is more than halfway through, and the heat has reached its peak.

The scorching sun scorched the earth, and the earth scorched the soles of people's feet.Li Ku'er was walking on the street wearing cloth shoes, and felt that her feet were so hot that the soles of her shoes were going to be burned through.She involuntarily raised her toes slightly, and hurried to Caishi Street.I want to buy some celery seeds today, soak them in water to accelerate germination in the afternoon, plant them in the ground in a few days, and harvest them in early winter.Li Ku'er has already checked secretly, and there are very few farmers growing celery this year, so they should be able to sell for a good price.

Knowing that she was lying on the tree and screaming happily, but hearing it made people tired and upset, when Li Kuer rushed to Caishi Street, she was indeed in a bleak scene.

It was too hot, and it was just after noon, and there were people buying vegetables in twos and threes on the street, and the vendors who brought their burdens from the roadside had lunch. It was the time when we were tired, and it was rare to be able to sit upright, let alone yelling.Li Kuer walked half the street before he found a shop that sold celery seeds. The stall owner had never seen it before, and he may have just moved to Qingshui Town, but he said that this kind of seed was good, big and plump, especially easy life.Li Ku'er was dubious, and wanted to shop around again, but the stall owner said he was going back for dinner, and if he didn't buy it, he would come back tomorrow.Li Ku'er guessed that there might be more in the future, and he didn't bother to make another trip tomorrow in the hot weather. Then he saw that the celery seeds were indeed full, so he asked the stall owner to buy them for five cents.

She lowered her head and packed the seeds into her bosom, suddenly felt her left shoulder sink, she was startled, turned left and then right, only to find that there was a person standing behind her, it was He Weiran.

"Ah, Miss He!" Li Kuer was very surprised to meet He Weiran here, or was she overjoyed?

"Ku'er, Ku'er, just call me Sister He." He Weiran corrected Li Kuer's address to her, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at the corner of the paper bag protruding from her arms.

"What did you buy? Show me."

"Oh, it's celery seeds." Hearing that she wanted to see it, Li Kuer immediately opened the paper bag again.

He Weiran reached out to fiddle with the seeds, turned them over and frowned.She looked at Li Kuer, then at the stall owner wearing a bamboo hat behind Li Kuer, put away the seeds, walked up to the stall owner a few steps, and said directly: "We don't want this seed anymore, you give me back the money Girl."

"Ah?" Li Kuer was puzzled, but since He Weiran said that, he didn't dare to question her, and just followed her silently to see what was going on.

"I sold her to buy, and the goods are all sold, so how can there be any reason to return them?"

Although Li Ku'er didn't understand what happened, but listening to the stall owner's attitude, he also felt uncomfortable.

"Since you said that, I will be blunt." He Weiran threw the seeds back to the stall, and continued: "Can this kind of seeds really grow good celery? I can't see it."

"You...don't talk nonsense, you're ruining my business." The stall owner was in a hurry, his eyes flickered, and he looked like a guilty conscience and wanted to hold on to the scene.

"You're a businessman, why would you want to lie to other girls? Those few pennies are small. My sister bought your seeds and went home. After half a year of hard work, she planted a field of hollow celery. Ask your conscience, How can you be happy?"

"Hollow celery?" Now Li Kuer knew what was wrong with the celery seeds, her cheeks pricked, and her two curved eyebrows immediately stood up: "Uncle, pay me back my hard-earned money!"

He Weiran's lips trembled, and he almost couldn't help laughing, how could he deal with scoundrels like this?She glanced at Li Kuer, who was still pretending to be powerful, and then pulled her eyes back to the face of the stall owner, and said: "Integrity is the most important thing in business, you cheated us, and we will not let it go if we suffer a loss. Spread the word about you liar. If you want to make money this time, you will have to lose your reputation in the future, and you will never want to do business in this vegetable market from now on."

"You...you..." The stall owner was impatient, seeing that the nearby stall owners and guests were also looking this way, pointing and whispering.His eyeballs turned left and right uneasily, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, he straightened his back suddenly, stood up and said: "You said that I sell inferior species, if you have the ability to show evidence."

"Whether I'm right or not, you know it well, but with my eyesight as the kitchen manager of King Qiao's mansion, I still can't see through your rapeseed?" The request was shocking: "If you want evidence, why not? I can ask someone to plant it to see, and you, during the period, just be a guest in the cellar of the palace. After staying for half a year, everything will be clear."

"You...huh! Count me unlucky! I met you who are so inconsistent." The stall owner realized that the woman in front of him could not afford to offend, and couldn't hold back his face, so he hurriedly made a step for himself.

He angrily returned the five cents to Li Kuer, and hypocritically complained to the nearby stall owners that he met unreasonable officials and family members.He Weiran was not annoyed at all, and only left a sentence: "Don't engage in unethical business, it hurts others as well as yourself." After speaking, he dragged Li Kuer away.

Li Kuer clutched the five cents tightly, feeling terrified, thinking that if he hadn't met He Weiran, the second half of the year would have been wasted.

"Sister He, you are so amazing, how can you tell at a glance that the celery grown from that seed is hollow?"

He Weiran smiled inexplicably, without explaining, just said: "This is a long story, and you can't understand it."

He Weiran said that Li Ku'er couldn't understand, Li Ku'er felt that he couldn't understand, so he didn't ask, and instead said: "That man is really black-hearted, what he does is not good, he has to stare at the peasants' jobs. It's okay for someone like me to have another job, but if those farmers who rely on farming for a living buy the seeds from his stand, they will not be able to harvest good grain and pay taxes in the coming year, and the whole family will be hungry. Letting him go like this is too harmful."

"I can't tell, Ku'er, you are still a heroine who hates evil." He Weiran patted her head and said, "Don't worry, he will have retribution."

Li Ku'er honestly lowered his head and let her touch her, but he felt that retribution was unbelievable.If there is such a thing as retribution, why did her father die so inexplicably all his life?Why did the person who caused her father to die so inexplicably still live happily?Hey, my mind is full of bad things, annoying, and the celery seeds still haven't been bought, which is also annoying.

"By the way, I came over from there just now and saw a seed stand. Let me take you there."

"Really?" Li Ku'er felt much better after hearing this, at least today's trip was not in vain.

After the two bought celery seeds, they walked back.When Li Kuer saw He Weiran looked at the vendors on both sides of the road, he realized that he had been entangled in her buying seeds all the way, and he still didn't know what He Weiran did when he came to Caishi Street.

"Sister He, what do you want to buy?"

"I'm here to look for yam." He Weiran replied with his lips, his eyes still turning around the stalls on both sides.

"There is someone in the palace to buy the ingredients, why do you need my sister to come out in person?"

He Weiran smiled casually, which was somewhat ironic: "Mama Zhang instructed Dashun, who is in charge of purchasing, recently most of the ingredients brought in by the mansion are not satisfactory. The weather is hot these days, and the prince has a poor appetite , I thought about making a meal to cool off the heat and nourish the stomach."

"Food to cool off the heat and nourish the stomach?" Li Kuer didn't know what tricks can be made with ordinary rice.

"This rice is called Shanshui rice. The mountain comes from yams in the mountains, that is, yam, the water comes from underwater lotus root and water lotus seeds, and the rice is wheat from that year. The lotus root, lotus seeds and wheat in the mansion are acceptable, but This yam is irregular left and right, the inside is not white enough, and the stickiness is poor. I just want to take advantage of this afternoon to go out and look for it.”

Even forced the chef to go to the vegetable market, Dashun is really capable.Li Ku'er secretly slandered, seeing that this vegetable market street had come to an end, she said to He Weiran: "Sister He, maybe our small town really isn't that good."

He Weiran stopped and sighed helplessly. Li Kuer thought she was about to give up, but she didn't want to hear her say again: "It seems that I want to go to the mountain to pick it myself. Kuer, can you take me there?"

"Ah?" Li Kuer blinked blankly: "That's good, but there are so many mountains near Qingshui Town, I don't know which mountain has good yam."

"You just need to take me along the river bank to find it all the way. Let's go, first go back to the palace to get tools and horses."

The two of them went back to the house under the scorching sun, Li Kuer was sweating all over, but he didn't see any trace of sweat.He took a sack and two small shovels from the back kitchen, asked the housekeeper for a horse, and the two of them were about to set off.

Li Ku'er had never ridden a horse before, standing in front of the horse suddenly saw the horse snort, and couldn't help shivering all over.He Weiran got on the horse first, and then stretched out his hand to her.Although Li Ku'er was afraid, she still held back her legs from shaking, grabbed He Weiran's hand and used her strength to climb onto the horse's back.After a lot of hard work, he finally sat on the horse safely. Unexpectedly, what happened next made Li Kuer even more nervous.

Is it really good to stick so close? !Only then did Li Kuer realize the current situation, He Weiran was riding a horse ring in front of her, and the two of them were almost close to each other... She exhaled, inhaled, exhaled, and inhaled again, fearing the violent His heartbeat was noticed by the people behind him... But at such a close distance, it will definitely be felt!Li Kuer felt like she was about to suffer from heat stroke...

"Which direction are you going?"

"Just to the east...to the east."

"Okay. Huh? Why are your ears red?"

Li Ku'er covered her face: "Uh... this damn weather is really going to kill you..."
