How I Survived in Transmigration with My Ghost Hubby

Suppressing his temper all the way, Ji Ran's dissatisfaction was written all over his face, until he got in the carriage and left the palace gate, his droopy face was gone.

Lu Zhen looked at his stinky face, feeling helpless and funny at the same time.

"It's funny?" Ji Ran raised his eyebrows as soon as Lu Zhen had this thought. The other party was clearly wearing a mask, and the corners of his mouth didn't even move. He didn't know where he could tell that the other party was smiling.

"It's not funny." Lu Zhen said against her will with a sullen face, "I love you." This is true.

Ji Ran's expression was dumbfounded: "..."

"You have been wronged in this matter. If it weren't for the help of Prime Minister Bai and the prince, once you move to the court, even if the emperor is wise, you will inevitably be in trouble. It is not easy to break through this dangerous situation without any surprises." Lu Zhen explained.

"Yes, Brother Ji." Zhao Yu quickly interjected, "You can't blame Lu Zhen for the situation just now. After all, the Queen Mother is involved. Since the emperor wants to suppress him, we have to expose his ugliness. Doesn't that make him unable to step down?"

"If it is true that the Empress Dowager colluded with the Huns, this matter is no small matter. If it is spread, the consequences will be unpredictable, and it is indeed not appropriate to publicize it." Bai Muyan also said.

Ji Ran also understands the truth, but he just can't swallow the breath.This means that Bai Muyan just happened to stop him. If not, if he is really moved to the court by the other party, he will be blamed for his treason. If he doesn't die, he will have to peel off his skin. Just thinking about it makes me angry. In this evil feudal era, How awful!

There was nothing to say all the way, and when he returned to the mansion, Ji Ran's face was much better.

"Sir Bai, Ji Ran is very grateful for your generous help today. If the two of you are not busy, why don't you come to the mansion together, and let's have a few drinks in the evening?" Before getting off the carriage, Ji Ran sincerely invited Bai Muyan and the two together. road.Although today's matter is quite aggrieved, but one yard counts for one yard. If it weren't for these two people, he would really be in big trouble today, and he should have asked for thank you wine.

Bai Muyan and Zhao Yu looked at each other, and said, "Master Ji, I agree with you, we still have something to do, let's drink this wine together another day."

Ji Ran didn't force it, and nodded when he heard the words. Anyway, this wine is the same any day, and there is no rush for today. Since the other party has something to do, let's wait another day.

"Success, then you go slowly, Brother Zhen and I will go down first." Ji Ran said.

Bai Muyan nodded in response.

Zhao Yu smiled and waved at Ji Ran.

Ji Ran and Lu Zhen got off the carriage, and the carriage drove away without even stopping. It seemed that they were in a hurry.After watching the carriage go away, Ji Ran just turned around and walked up the steps, walking towards the gate, but after walking a few steps, Lu Zhen quickly followed and grabbed his arm.

"Still angry?" Lu Zhen asked, looking at Ji Ran's face.

"How can it be?" Ji Ran sighed, "I was just out of breath at the time, and it wasn't your fault, so how can I blame you."

"It's fine if you're not angry." Lu Zhen's hand holding Ji Ran's arm slipped down, took advantage of the situation to hold his hand, and interlocked his fingers.

Hearing this, Ji Ran looked sideways, smiled at Lu Zhen, then held Lu Zhen's hand tightly, and pushed the door together to enter.

"Your Excellency is back? Are you okay?" When the two of them entered the door, Lao Liu hurried out from the side path and asked worriedly.

"It's okay." Ji Ran replied with a reassuring smile, "It's just that this trip has been delayed for a long time, and it's already time in a blink of an eye, but dinner is ready?"

"It's ready." Lao Liu bowed and followed closely, "I'll wait for the adults to come back and have dinner."

Ji Ran nodded, Lao Liu bowed and saluted, then turned to Zhang Luo on his own.

The matter of the stone statue, since the emperor suppressed it, Ji Ran couldn't help but sigh that it is not easy to be an official, so he simply put it to the back of his mind and didn't bother to think about it.What to do every day, the Secretary of Agriculture runs around the house, occasionally writes and submits memorials, chats with Lu Zhen and holds hands, and occasionally does some shameless things in the house because of the excitement, and lives a small life It's booming.

Only a few days later, I got a piece of news that the Empress Dowager had gone to the family temple to pay homage to the Buddha in order to pray for the community, and the return date was uncertain.As soon as this news came out, there was an uproar all over the court, some lamented that the Empress Dowager was savvy, and some speculated on the inside story, but no matter the different opinions, there were only a few who knew the inside story.

According to reliable sources, all the empress dowagers who accompanied the queen mother to the imperial study that day had seen the true face of the stone statues were strictly guarded.It is still very shocking to want to come here to kill chickens and monkeys. No matter how many speculations outside, there is still no definite news. It can be seen that girls keep their mouths tighter than clam shells for their own lives.

This is a good thing.

It was rare to see the emperor act so swiftly and resolutely, Ji Ran felt relieved at the same time.Now that the old godmother has been sent away, it is impossible to continue to make trouble in a short time.

However, the queen mother of this country has to collude with foreign enemies to cheat her son without enjoying her glory and wealth. His mother, or else the genes were inherited in the same line, thanks to the emperor not inheriting the brain circuit of this neuropathy, otherwise the Great Southern Dynasty might be over sooner or later.

The empress dowager's departure can be said to end Ji Ran's heartache.But he didn't put much thought into this matter, the rice seedlings were imminent, and his family's agricultural teaching department was busy these few days.

Fortunately, the results are gratifying. The growth of the rice seedlings in the wasteland and dry fields is slightly worse, but they are still much larger than those planted by ordinary farmers. However, the ones planted in the pond at home are fully taller. Will not disappoint.

Even though he knew what was in his heart, Ji Ran still lingers in the ponds in the field, always paying attention to the growth of rice seedlings, burning seedlings, and worms, he can deal with them in the first time. Unknowingly, spring and summer change, and in a blink of an eye It's the season for rice seedlings to head.As Ji Ran expected, the ears of rice in the pond at home are indeed much better than those in the dry fields. The long strips are still sinking, and the grains are full. It is only in the mud. After corrosion, it can be used as fertilizer, and it will definitely be better if it is replanted.

Now that the ears of rice are just turning golden, Ji Ran is not watching so closely. In addition to the hotter weather, he mostly stays at home now, and rarely even goes to the Agricultural Education Department.However, in such a scorching hot weather, Ji Ran waited for Li Kui, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, this time the other party was still here to deliver things, and most of the vegetables were collected similarly, although Ji Ran would not refuse this one as usual, But he had lost the enthusiasm he had at the beginning, and what Li Kui brought this time was far beyond his expectations, and he was really pleasantly surprised.

Ji Ran never imagined that what Li Kui brought this time would be rapeseed, which is a good thing.You must know that in ancient times, there was a shortage of materials, so lard was searched for a living, and most people still used oilcloth. It would be great if it could be rich in grain and oil. This is not only a problem of improving the taste, but also greatly improving many things. Poor people live in an embarrassing life of lack of oil and meat.

"I saw this by chance when I was passing through Xiwu Licheng. It is one of the local specialties. Although the grains are small, it is quite a good snack. You can eat a lot and chew it. It is more delicious than sunflower seeds. "What Li Kui grabbed to show Ji Ran was a handful of fried rapeseed, golden and shiny, smelling like a musty smell of vegetable oil, "I specially bought a sack of seeds and brought back some fried rapeseed, you Try it."

Ji Ran's nostrils fluttered, and he took two deep breaths of the long-lost fragrance. Thinking that the local people would treat this as the zero hour of melon seeds, his heart ached like crazy.

Ji Ran didn't taste the stir-fried rapeseed, but asked, "How many such stir-fried rapeseeds do you have?"

"Not much." Although Li Kui didn't understand why Ji Ran asked this question, he still said, "It's just a small bag, it's expensive, so I bought it and tried it out."

In this era of scarcity of supplies, people's tastes are very rough. The stir-fried rapeseed that Li Kui strongly recommends is delicious, but Ji Ran actually has no desire to try it. Although it smells delicious, he still knows, If the residue of rapeseed oil is not handled well, it will be bitter.So he didn't go to get the stir-fried rapeseed in Li Kui's hand, but got up and went to pick up the sack that Li Kui had put at his feet and weighed it. It was very heavy, at least tens of catties. Can't wait to call the servants to spread the rapeseed seeds brought by Li Kui on a half-wooden plate, and excitedly carried them to the kitchen.

The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing why Ji Ran did this.

Li Kui waited for the others to walk away for a long time before recovering. He put away the fried rapeseed in his hand and looked up at Lu Zhen, who was equally dazed. "This... what does Master Ji mean?"

Lu Zhen still remembered that when Li Kui was with the Qi brothers, it would be strange to have a good face, and he ignored it, and strode out the door.He usually doesn't wear a mask at home, so he confronted Li Kui with a cold face, which froze him into a daze.

"Tsk, who is this?" Li Kui raised his head and threw all the rapeseed into his mouth, chewing his mouthful, and chased after him.No wonder he was curious, it's because Ji Ran has always given unexpected surprises since he met Ji Ran.

If you want to ask Ji Ran why did he go there?

Is there even a question?Of course, I went to the kitchen to extract oil!

To say that Ji Ran is also hot on the head, without the assistance of machines, it is hard to say whether this oil refining will be successful, but the method is all thought out by people. As long as you master the general oil refining steps and try to improve it, it should... also be possible.

Ji Ran got into the kitchen and didn't stop for a while. He greeted the next person to heat the pot, prepared the mortar for pressing the oil, and then the chef got busy.

That's right, because there was no oil press, Ji Ran thought of the ladle that people used to mill rice, and planned to extract the oil by hand.This kind of oil output is definitely not comparable to that of a machine, but as long as it succeeds, I will draw a blueprint of the oil press later and find a craftsman to do it.

But this is easy to think of, but very difficult to do.It’s okay to stir-fry, just control the heat and stir-fry until cooked, but the process of manual oil extraction has encountered difficulties, because the mortar dissipates heat quickly, and the temperature of the rapeseed must be guaranteed for the oil to be produced.Ji Ran tried a few times, but failed in the end, and couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

"What are you doing?" Lu Zhen watched for a long time, but she didn't see what Ji Ran was up to, but she didn't bother him when she saw him busy. Seeing that he was downcast, she stepped forward to ask road.

"Hey." Ji Ran squatted in front of the mortar, and said distressedly, "It would be great if I could keep this warm." He wondered whether he should dig a hole on the spot and burn charcoal.

"Keep the temperature?" Lu Zhen frowned, "You mean to heat the mortar so that the rapeseeds will not disperse at high temperature?"

Ji Ran nodded, "Yes, but how can it be done?"

Lu Zhen laughed when she heard the words, and immediately rolled up her sleeves, "I'll do it."

"Huh?" Ji Ran was stunned for a moment.

Lu Zhen did what he said, without waiting for Ji Ran to return the cold rapeseed to the frying pan, he squatted on the spot, holding both sides of the mortar with both hands, the already cold rapeseed popped out at a speed visible to the naked eye Dazzling white smoke.

It's... hot!

Ji Ran was overjoyed, and immediately picked up the hammer and crushed it vigorously without saying a word.
