Seed dealers in ancient times

Zheng Jiangting kindly gave Wang Yingying a part of the way, and when he reached Qingwu Alley, he turned back and went to the restaurant.

Unexpectedly, when Fang arrived at the gate of Wang's house, he bumped into Chu Xian who was oncoming.

Chu Xian looked at a man and a woman walking together from a distance, and saw that Zheng Jiangting looked a bit like Zheng Jiangting. She thought she was wrong, but she didn't expect it to be him when she approached.

He had no expression on his face, but it made people feel indifferent. Wang Yingying's eyes were red, seeing Chu Xian wanted to say hello, it was obvious that his expression was scary, and she swallowed her words.

"Thank you Brother Zheng Jiangting for sending me back, I'll go in first."

After saying that, the little girl hurriedly got into her yard.

Zheng Jiang stopped trying to defend himself, but he was running too fast, so he could only yell at his back: "It's just on the way, it's not a delivery."

Chu Xian snorted coldly: "Haven't seen enough? Why don't you go to the shopkeeper Wang's house and sit down and talk to him enough? Now Master Zheng is very popular in Qingwu Lane. No matter who visits the house, the owner will be happy." very."

"Don't say that, I'm just afraid you'll misunderstand."

"I misunderstood something. I don't see anyone in the morning. It's okay for Hongxia to come home. She's with a girl. What do you think I could have misunderstood?"

After saying that, Chu Xian walked to the front alone.

Zheng Jiangting quickly caught up and grabbed Chu Xian's hand: "It's really not what you think."

Chu Xian wanted to shake off her hand but couldn't shake it off: "What are you talking about on the street!"

Zheng Jiang stood upright to block Chu Xian, not letting him go: "You are my husband, even if you drag others on the street, you can't do anything about it."

Chu Xian glanced at Zheng Jiang and pursed her lips: "Who is your husband? You didn't talk about matchmaking, you didn't get hired, so don't talk nonsense."

Zheng Jiang stopped holding the person: "I clearly said it well before, but you are too quick to regret it."

"So what if I go back on my word? Are you still afraid that you won't be able to get married?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. I hope that our Young Master Chu's people can line up from Qingwu Lane to the main street. I'm afraid."

Chu Xian snorted softly, and didn't bother to continue to play tricks with him anymore. A person who was honest and honest before, is now more and more glib.

Seeing that Chu Xian didn't say anything, Zheng Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained the matter of meeting Wang Yingying just now.

Chu Xian knew exactly how she could get close to a little girl just by Zheng Jiang's snarky mind. If it wasn't for her own shamelessness, the two of them would not have come to this point today. I am afraid that Zheng Jiang would have been Ting was so angry that he said a few words to him, just to make him anxious.

Zheng Jiangting squeezed Chu Xian's palm: "Don't be angry, we will move to the north of the city in the future, and we won't have any contact with him."

"Who cares who you associate with."

"You don't care who else is in charge."

"I'm too lazy to talk to you."

Hearing this, Zheng Jiangting raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help staring at Chu Xian's light-colored thin lips with a little cinnabar smudged out, and murmured: "It's still a waste of time."

Chu Xian didn't understand what he was talking about, she raised her eyes and saw his strange expression, she suddenly understood, he was talking seriously, but instead he was thinking about something messy in his mind, it really annoyed him.

He raised the corner of his mouth and hooked his fingers towards Zheng Jiangting.

Zheng Jiangting showed doubts on his face, but still leaned over and put his ear to it: "Do you want to sleep in my yard tonight?"

"It's... not very good."

Chu Xian blinked her eyes.

Zheng Jiang stopped sliding his Adam's apple: "OK!"

Chu Xian's complexion changed: "You think it's beautiful."

The next day, Zheng Jiangting and Carpenter Ma went to choose the wood for the house, and then went to the car and horse shop to hire someone to build the car and horse shed. The cost was 30 taels, and the wood selected was not very expensive. Timber, the cost of these things is not much cheaper than buying a house, but fortunately the price of the house is kept low.

After paying the timber and the deposit for the chariot dealer, Zheng Jiangting's pockets were completely empty.

There is still a balance left after the deposit is paid, so I can only go to the shop to get some for use. Zheng Jiang stopped pinching the bridge of his nose, and the shop's brother Qian Xian held it in his hand. He had to find some excuse to get the money, otherwise he would not Dressed up.

He sighed and went to the shop.

"How much do you want?"

"15 taels."

Chu Xian was going to get the silver from the cash drawer, but he paused when he heard the count, because he didn't want to ask Zheng Jiangting about taking the money. a businessman.

He took out all the money: "So much?"

Zheng Jiangting gave a dry cough: "I did some other business outside, and I can't make enough money for the time being. I will quit after two months when I get the money back."

Chu Xian chuckled: "Whatever you say, return it. This is the money you earned, and expenses are common. You, also go and buy some clothes yourself, and see if you wear some rough clothes all day long. You can also pay for the clothes I make. Don't wear it."

"I'm used to it, and it's convenient to wear these to do things." Zheng Jiang stopped collecting the money, and felt indescribably warm to Chu Xian's thoughtfulness: "I'll take you to a place when I'm done with work."

"Try to coax me nicely."

Just as Zheng Jiangting was about to say that this was not a lie, an ox cart stopped at the door, and Cai Lin jumped off the ox cart.

"How did you come?"

Cai Lin said: "Go to the village, if something happens, let's talk while walking."

"Yes." Zheng Jiangting greeted Chu Xian and got into Cai Lin's ox cart.

When the two left the city, Zheng Jiang stopped and said, "So anxious, but what happened?"

"It's nothing urgent, but now the peppers planted by the villagers are all ripe, and the whole field is red. Didn't it rain a lot before, and some overripe peppers were knocked down by the rain, and fell into the ground. Quite a few, and the villagers don’t know what to eat, so they feel distressed, so I asked you what to do.”

"I thought it was a big deal, a small thing."

Cai Lin heaved a sigh of relief, and said again: "A villager picked up the chili peppers and took them back to cook and eat them. His face was flushed red, and it was so spicy that he almost lost his breath. Since then, no one dared to touch those things. What is it, can it be eaten?"

"Eating is something you can eat naturally, but it's not the way to eat it."

The two entered the village together. They didn't go to Cai Lin's residence today. They got out of the bullock cart at the entrance of the village. Many villagers got the news. Waiting here.

As soon as they saw people coming, they gathered around and chatted about the chili.

Zheng Jiang stopped and pressed his hands: "Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient."

"We're also worried. If the peppers fall, we won't be able to do business when the landlord comes to collect the grain."

"Those things are bright red in bunches. Although the smell is strange, but at least it's the results of the seedlings. It hurts to ruin it."

"Didn't I come here when I heard the news?" Zheng Jiang stopped and planted a field with peppers nearby, and he folded off the handles of the peppers. The long strips of red peppers had smooth skins and were long and thick. It is very plump, and the appearance is very good: "Everyone pick off the red peppers like this, take them back home, cut off the handles, and dry them in the sun. Just dry them and store them. The master will come and collect them."

"Can it be dried?"

"Why do you have to pick it off and then cut it out? When you pick it up, don't cut it?"

"No, you have to use scissors, otherwise it will hurt the chili and keep it for a long time. And everyone has a kimchi jar at home, you can throw some into the jar to soak, and eat it with stir-fried vegetables later."

The villagers murmured in response.

"Everyone pick off the ripe peppers today, and I'll transport them away. When the next batch is ripe, everyone will do as I said."

Now Zheng Jiangting was just talking, and everyone didn't dare to ask too much. Anyway, according to his intentions, everyone who was in a hurry went home and took a guy to pick peppers.

The peppers grown in the village include common peppers, vitex and big sweet peppers. Not many big sweet peppers are planted, as if he remembered that only one villager got half a pack. The big sweet peppers are big and round, and they look a bit like The villagers picked two baskets of tomatoes, and Zheng Jiang stopped thinking about taking them back and frying them on two plates.

As for the other chili peppers, which filled two baskets, it probably weighed thirty to forty catties, which is quite a lot. He planned to take these chili peppers back to make chili sauce and kimchi, which would be a blessing in the future.

With a shy face, he asked Cai Lin to come and take him back to the city.

The peppers were shipped back home. Brother Hui was handling the potatoes every day. The little brother was very quick with his hands and feet. He could finish the day's work in half a day. Zheng Jiangting simply handed over the peppers to others. Went to the shop to buy kimchi jars.

There is only one kimchi jar at home, and there are two in the shop, both of which are managed by Zou Yun. They are filled with pickled radish and sauerkraut. It made him feel that there was something missing. Even though Zou Yun's kimchi was good, he didn't eat much.

Right now he has picked two more large pickle jars, one of which can hold ten catties of peppers. The first batch of peppers harvested is not a lot, half of them are soaked, and the other half can be made into chili sauce. It's time to add a kimchi jar.

In addition to the kimchi jar, he had to choose a jar to hold the chili sauce. He was thinking about whether it was better to use a big jar or a small jar.

I weighed it up and down, and it’s easy to buy a big jar, but put all the chili sauce in a jar, and it’s not good to always open the lid if you want to eat it in the future. If there is too much air, it will easily deteriorate. It is also easy to buy three or two smaller jars and pack them separately.

After such a decision, he bought a total of five jars, and the younger brother even dragged the cart to deliver the jars to Qingwu Lane.

Zou Yun and Chu Xian finished their work and went back. By chance, the family moved the jar back together.

Chu Xian hugged a kimchi jar, thinking that someone took the money today, and said, "Is this the business you talked about?"

"Let's just count it, it still takes a lot of effort."

Brother Hui had already cleaned and cleaned the peppers and hung them in the yard. Zheng Jiang didn't delay, and washed the new kimchi jar. When Zou Yun came back, he asked her to make kimchi, and he took the big ones he picked today Bell peppers, ready to fry a bowl of twice-cooked pork.

"I've been busy all day today, brother Hui should also have dinner at home."

Zou Yun opened his mouth to keep people, afraid that the little brother would be polite, and said: "I still need you to help me make kimchi."

Seeing that there was still work to be done, Brother Hui agreed. In fact, he was also embarrassed. Since he came here to work, he has received a lot of money, but the work is very easy. He is also under the same roof. However, life is much more comfortable than working as a long-term worker in the Lord's house before.

At that time, I was a long-term worker in a big family, and I had to do all kinds of hard work. I got up earlier than the chickens, and went to bed later than the dogs. If you do poorly, there is still a male master, but he is more responsible than him, so it is natural to get along with him comfortably.

The Zheng family is very friendly, and they always leave him to eat, and the food is good, and the meat they eat every now and then is indeed an enviable family. Now he is afraid that he does not have enough work, so he is always looking for work every day Do it, after all such a good job is hard to find a second one.
