Fang Zhai more than ten acres [system]

Through A Ruo's explanation, Yu Rong knew that today is the "Blind Date Day" in Qinglian and even the nearby towns and villages with a radius of more than ten miles.

——Of course, on the surface, it is said to commemorate the birthday of the "Shuihua Empress" who is incarnated as a lotus.

According to the local legend, Empress Shuihua is in charge of the marriage between men and women, so over time, her birthday has become a blind date for young men and women... It is the only recognized "covenant without a matchmaker".

In the lotus leaf pond in late spring and early summer, young men and women tacitly go to pick water chestnuts, riding on different wooden boats. If they see the right way, the woman will pick a lotus bud and give it to the man. In order to show his ability, the man often Send a bucket of fish and shrimp caught by yourself.

Yu Rong is very embarrassing, the first reaction is, no wonder here is full of lotus leaf ponds here one after another, otherwise I am afraid that the lotus is not enough to pick, then I think, isn't the water chestnut mature only in late summer and early autumn, this is the time to pick water chestnuts Really all right?

"It's not about production!" Ah Ruo gave him a blank look when he heard the question he asked unconsciously, "Who said water chestnuts are picked, and that thing is not delicious... It's time to pick water chestnuts, don't you know?" Don't you know?"

Yu Rong was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that the water chestnut at this time was not the same as the species familiar to modern people. It must be wild water chestnut. He didn’t agree with A Ruo’s saying that it was not delicious, but the shell was too hard, and the four corners were straight and sharp. , it is difficult to handle when eating, but the flavor is excellent. Not only can it be used as a delicacy, it can nourish the spleen and stomach, and it can also be used as medicine to detoxify and clear away heat.

As for the water chestnut...

Pulling the long-standing memory, it seems that there is such a game, pinch the leaves and leave the stalk near the sponge air bag, cut it thinly, mix with garlic, sprinkle a little salt to marinate, steam it when cooking, put some oil and chili , but it is more delicious than capers and pickled mustard root, and it is easy to serve with rice.

Ah Ruo will appear here because he intends to pick water chestnuts.

"What about you, do you want to go together?"

Yu Rong silently glanced at the lively scene of men and women in the lotus leaf pond, a certain man's face inexplicably popped up in his mind, and then the picture of that man after he took off his clothes... Cough cough, stop!

A Ruo followed his gaze, and raised his voice: "Don't go to the lotus leaf pond, it's too noisy, and there are no water chestnuts."

Thinking that it was hard to get out of this door, it was still early, and now the days were getting longer and longer, so Yu Rong accepted Ah Ruo's invitation.

To the north of the lotus leaf pond, walk a mile or two, and you will find a large wetland made up of many small water dams, which is full of water chestnuts, many reeds, and lush cattails. A little wild water bamboo.

Seeing such a view from a distance is inexplicably refreshing.

Refreshing.Yu Rong couldn't help slowing down her pace, she just felt that Xin'an Mansion in late spring and early summer is really beautiful.

Ah Ruo's mocking voice came again: "Are you afraid of stepping on ants?"

"..."

Yu Rongsui quickened his pace and followed the impatient young man who was walking ahead.

Water chestnut is an aquatic vine plant. If you stand on the shore and catch a vine, you can pull the entire water chestnut near the water to you.

Like A Ruo, Yu Rong pulled a lot of water chestnut vines and put them on the ridge, picked off the leaves, pinched off the fresh and tender petioles...then they can be used as water chestnuts.After picking the water chestnut, throw the vines back into the water, the rhizome is still alive, and the water chestnut can continue to grow in the future.

It's a simple thing, but it's a bit of a pain to do.

Unlike digging wild vegetables, the key to pinching water chestnut lies in the word "pinch". After a bowl of water chestnut is pinched, the thumb nail and index finger pulp will be painful.

Yu Rong is silent, no wonder I don't remember this delicacy bestowed by nature, it's a bit troublesome to get it done, it's not a problem, the key is that the water chestnut juice seeps into the skin texture, it's so dark that it's very difficult to wash off.

No matter whether it is medicated soap, shampoo, or the medicinal solution directly smashed with Sapindus chinensis, there is no way to completely wash off the dark brown layer on the surface of the nails, which is dirty and ugly.

"Brother Yu..." Xiaohe trotted to the well, his eyes were bright, his face was flushed, and he looked in good spirits, "Brother said, Sangchen is going to give birth to a kitten."

Yu Rong paused as he scrubbed his nails: "Brother Zhong, are you sure?"

"Well," Xiaohe said, "My brother has raised cats before, so he is very familiar with giving birth to kittens."

Yu Rong was embarrassed.

Well, he is really not a good veterinarian, nor is he a competent excrement officer. He didn't notice the abnormality of Sangchen. He hugged her yesterday and found that she was heavy again, and his belly was round... Because it is an orange cat, I took it for granted that Sang Chen had gained weight.

So he followed Xiaohe to find Brother Zhong, thinking as he walked, who is the father of the kitten in Orange Cat's belly, Sanxiu?Or, General Chi Yan?

Thinking of Sanxiu's virtue, and General Chiyan's domineering and lazy appearance, Yu Rong couldn't help but want to sigh. Sang Chen really didn't entrust him with a "cat". Which of the two is a competent cat father material?

"The cat outside?" After Yu Rong checked Sang Chen's body, he couldn't help stroking the cat's head, and looked at Brother Zhong in surprise, "Are you sure?"

It was Ming Geer who answered: "It seems to be a white wild cat. I saw it in the shack once."

Brother Zhong nodded: "I even ate Sanxiu's cat meal secretly, and I caught it several times."

"Wild cat?" Yu Rong pondered, "I know."

It doesn't matter which concubine Sang Chen is, what is important now is to prepare for the birth of kittens - first of all, we must quickly design a special diet package for "pregnant cats", and it is very necessary to increase nutrition through food supplements. Just in case, there is also a production box, which must be made ten days before the orange cat is born.

Yu Rong even spent some contribution points to learn how to "delivery" kittens... 囧.

"Help... Doctor Xiaoyu, Doctor Xiaoyu—"

Zhao Shi's extremely energetic and loud voice resounded throughout the yard.

Yu Rongzheng was flipping through the "pregnant cat" care guide he bought from the mall, and when he heard the horrific calls for help, his expression changed in shock, and he hurriedly followed the sound to the backyard——

The suave young man is running around the vegetable field and the blooming rose clumps in a very unimpressive manner... A mighty and beautiful big rooster, with arms stretched out and mouth open, is full of energy, chasing after his ass, trying to peck him from time to time a handful.

Zhao Zhu glanced at the young doctor from the corner of his eye, and immediately rushed towards him as if he had met a savior: "Doctor Xiao Yu—"

With a "bang", the baby's face flew into the air, and because he ran too fast, he forgot that there were two steps in the verandah, so he tripped all of a sudden, and hit the ground with his face on the ground.

Yu Rong stared at all this in a daze, and didn't even realize that someone was holding his shoulders and his feet had changed positions unconsciously.

Zhao Zhuyin who threw himself on the ground, before he had time to get up, the domineering big rooster was an iron beak, with a precise aim, and bit his protruding buttocks.

A particularly miserable howl.

"Ah," Xiao He, who arrived at this time, hurriedly ran to Zhao Zhuyin's side, and picked up the big rooster with open arms, "Why is Xiaohong pecking at people again!"

Take a moment.

Facing the boss's extremely oppressive eyes, Zhao Zhuyin was crying, a carp stood up straight, and stretched out his hand to rub the part that was pecked by the cock, but because of the indecent movement, he had to endure it.

"...Even the rooster of Doctor Xiaoyu's house is so...extraordinary." Zhao Zhuyin smiled wryly.

Yu Rong was speechless, could he say that he didn't understand what was going on?

Afterwards, Xiao He explained in a low voice in his ear, and finally knew some things that he didn't care about before.

The few chickens caught and raised last year are all grown up now. Not to mention the two hens, the only rooster is particularly aggressive and loves to chase people. Once chased, a piece of The sharp beak came up without hesitation and just took a bite... It is said that people in Zhuangzi have to detour when they see it now, and it can be called a big village tyrant in the local area.

The reason why Yu Rong didn't know this was because this big rooster not only loves "bullying the weak", but also learned to "bully the good and fear the evil" without a teacher. People in the family dare not peck it, and even a strong man with a particularly vicious growth would never see it. Run after others.

So far, no one in the village has approached Yu Rong about the big cock.

Although being pecked by a rooster is very painful, no one would really go to the door to "complain" or demand compensation for such a trivial matter. After all, aggressiveness is the nature of roosters, and everyone is quite used to it—but, Yu Rong's family This one is especially good at playing prestige.

Yu Rong: "..."

"Sorry, brother Zhuyin," Yu Rong digested the news shared by Xiao He, and looked at the baby-faced young man apologetically, his eyes unconsciously drifting to the other's buttocks, "It's because I'm not strict in discipline..." He said, feeling a little embarrassed In other words, how should he discipline this group of uncle-like animals?

The man's stalwart body suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, blocking his gaze from looking at the other person.

Before Zhao Zhuyin could reply, Nie Xinzhi was the first to express his attitude: "It's not your fault. Zhao sneaked in through the back door. It's not what a gentleman did."

"Boss..."

Hearing this, Yu Rong was still a little embarrassed, avoided the man, and asked Zhao Zhuyin again: "Brother Zhuyin, how is the injury, do you want to apply some ointment?"

"He carries the myogenic ointment you made with him." It was still Nie Xinzhi who answered.

Yu Rong heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "The prick just now shouldn't peck the skin, and it's almost enough to apply the muscle-creating ointment once or twice."

"Rong'er."

Yu Rong raised his head upon hearing the sound: "Brother Xin?"

Nie Xinzhi changed the subject and asked calmly, "Can you check for me if the plaster on the back needs to be replaced?"

Yu Rong was startled: "Why, are you injured?"

The man said indifferently: "A little collision."

Yu Rong was skeptical, the injury that could make this man bluntly "show weakness" might not be too minor.

After thinking about it like this, he said without hesitation, "Follow me to the medicine room."

Nie Xinzhi thanked in a low voice: "Trouble."

"Hey, boss..."

Zhao Zhuyin opened and closed his mouth, staring dumbfounded as he was instantly forgotten by everyone.

For a long while, I couldn't speak.

After a long time, someone sighed leisurely.

"The color is confusing!"

"oops--"

"Doctor Xiao Yu help..."

The majestic big rooster chased the young Lang Weiman and fluttered around the yard.
