Bad Boy Farming

Chapter 79 The Emperor Arrives

October came very quickly for Su Jiu, and it also came very quickly for the busy people of Zhangjia Village, so that after Er Niu and Qi Sheng got married, they went to Qingzhou Mansion and then came back.However, when they got home, the rice had already headed.

When everyone saw Er Niu, it was like seeing their own parents. Before he was allowed to enter the house, everyone yelled, "Er Niu is back, and if he doesn't come back, we will look for you."

"How are you guys doing recently? How many times have you divided the money?" Er Niu smiled and took out the sugar and pastries, "I bought them in Qingzhou, try to see if it's different from ours."

"Stop eating, wait for your money." The village head said, "That idiot in Guangjiao is as stupid as Lao Wu, one of them has been studying with you for so long, and the other has stayed in Heji Winery for so long. Neither will count."

"No way?" Er Niu blinked, "You haven't paid any money this month?"

Zhang Lishi said, "They are divided according to what you said, but it is not right to divide them several times."

Er Niu took the account book handed over by the old doctor, took a closer look, raised his head and glanced at the crowd, and asked expressionlessly, "Why are there 140 and [-] altars of preserved eggs?"

"This..." the village head said, "Erniu, I don't blame me for this. It was your aunt who insisted on making more jars of preserved eggs, and Mr. He's family didn't say no, so..."

"So there is more money. Of course they don't know how to divide it. Can you blame them!" Er Niu said, "What else is going on these days when I'm not here?"

"Two groups of merchants came to buy our preserved eggs, but we didn't dare to sell them without you, and we didn't dare to let them go to the workshop to have a look. We increased our manpower to check around the village at night, and we didn't stop during this time."

Er Niu smiled, "It's right. If they are not sincere buyers of preserved eggs, once you sell preserved eggs to them, something will happen."

"I think so too." The village head said, "But what if they really want to buy preserved eggs?"

"Don't worry! Preserved eggs are unique to our village. As long as they have the heart, they will come again soon." Er Niu said, "It's like the girl you fell in love with. If you fail to propose marriage once, try again."

"Erniu can talk." Zhang Lishi said, "The lotus seeds on the lotus have been picked and put in the workshop according to what you said. Do you want to go and have a look?"

The village head said, "You also let Er Niu rest."

"No." Er Niu shook his head, "Let's go to the workshop and divide up everyone's money first."

Xiao Niu waited for the others to leave before asking, "Second Brother Qi, what can Lianzi do?"

"Keep the seeds." Qi Sheng didn't understand, "Let me see how you are doing, don't be beaten by the master tomorrow."

"Second brother said that we will be able to take the exam in the next year." Maverick threw the book to Qi Sheng, "You should ask second brother to buy more land, then our family will not have to pay rent."

Qi Sheng rolled his eyes at him, Er Niu didn't care whether the rent was good or not.However, the land needs to be bought and reserved for taro planting.

Having said that, Erniu really didn't expect to be able to produce hundreds of catties of lotus seeds, so he asked everyone to go back and get a big name for serving vegetables.

Everyone wondered, "Why do you want a bowl?"

Er Niu took the bowl from one of them and scooped up a bowl full of lotus seeds, "Put a little in it every time you cook porridge, it can cure back pain and insomnia, and it can also strengthen the spleen and appetizer. By the way, people who can't poop Don't eat it."

"Can this thing be eaten?" Everyone exclaimed, "Can it be sold for money?"

Er Niu gave them a blank look, "Sell everything!"

"We're just talking." Everyone looked embarrassed, "Er Niu, don't be angry, we also know that money will never end."

"It's good to know! By the way, soak it in water before eating, pick out the green sprout inside, it's called lotus heart, eat it if you don't pick it out, be careful you can't open your mouth!"

"Ah? So troublesome?" The first person to scoop up lotus seeds saw Er Niu nodding, and quickly poured out half of them, "Forget it, I don't have that skill! Everyone in my family has a good appetite like a wolf, and they don't need lotus seeds." !"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone left without waiting for Er Niu to help share the lotus seeds.

Er Niu stretched out his hand to hold Zhang Lishi, "Third Aunt, this is a good thing."

Mrs. Zhang Li turned her head and smiled at him, "There are so many good things in the world, your third aunt wants to try them all. By the way, I met a cattle butcher in Fangxian County yesterday, and I will give you a bowl of beef tendon later. Cooked it all night." After finishing speaking, she ran out without looking back, afraid that Er Niu would give her lotus seeds if she ran too slowly.

Er Niu stared at her back for a moment, his face was very bad, and when he got home with half a bag of lotus seeds, he threw it on the table and made a "plop".

"What's wrong?" Qi Sheng looked up, "Who offended you?"

"Those bastards!" Er Niu waved his hands, "Don't mention it, I'll get angry when you mention it. Maverick, bring me a bowl of water!"

"Second brother, I didn't make a mistake today." Maverick said hurriedly.

Er Niu raised his leg and gave him a kick, "If you are told to get it, go quickly! Why so much nonsense!

Xiao Niu curled his lips, and when he saw Er Niu staring, he hurried out, "Hey, why are you here?"

The two came out when they heard Maverick's voice, and saw Su Jiu and a middle-aged man standing in front of his house, "Brother Su, why are you here? Where's He Ping?"

"He Ping didn't come. That's right, this is my brother, you can call him Su Ba." Su Jiu said, "I think the taro should be ripe, so I'll come over and have a look."

Qi Sheng didn't think much, "Come in quickly, when did you arrive?"

"Just arrived yesterday." In fact, they should have arrived half a month ago, but Su Jiu had heard Er Niu say that there are many corrupt officials in the world. He didn't believe that evil, so he dragged the emperor along the way to check.What was the result?The emperor had already expected it, and Su Jiu was very unhappy.It wasn't until I came to Zhangjia Village that I saw the green hills and clear water on both sides, and the sullenness in my heart dissipated a little.

"I heard that you and Erniu are married, congratulations!" Su Jiu said.

Qi Sheng chuckled, "You're tired, sit down."

"We just got home, wait a minute, I'm going to boil the water right now. Xiao Niu, greet the guests." Er Niu nodded at the two of them and went out.

Xiao Niu took out dried persimmons and apples, "Brother Su, don't call me stingy anymore, this is made by my second brother, I'm not even willing to eat it myself."

"Then thank you Maverick." The emperor dressed as Su Ba said and took a bag from the guard behind him, "I heard from Xiaojiu that Maverick loves reading, and these books are for you. This is the knife Dou and Mengmeng, we bought these snacks for you from Lin'an Mansion."

The three children shared good things with each other, looked at each other, and said with a sweet smile, "Thank you mynah."

"Brother? Pfft!" Su Jiule said, "It looks like a parrot."

"Shut up!" Xiao Niu was very angry, "The parrot is also more generous than you." Then he looked at Su Ba, "I will call you Brother Su from now on."

"Then what do you call him?" the emperor asked.

"Xiao Jiu." Mengmeng answered bluntly, and the emperor clapped his hands and laughed, "Good boy! You're right!"

Qi Sheng shook his head helplessly, "Okay, put your things in the room quickly, and I'll call you when the meal is ready."

Xiao Niu said thank you to Su Ba again, and then went out with his two nephews to find his little friend whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

As soon as Er Niu thought that Su Jiu had not only come but also brought someone who might be the emperor, he wanted to give him a kick!A companion is like a tiger, no matter which dynasty you are in.And even though he was the president of a listed company in his previous life, he only met the ruler at that time once, what should he do as a partner!

Before Er Niu could figure it out, Su Ba came in and saw him scooping up boiling water, "Er Niu, right? I'm Su Jiu's elder brother."

"Brother Su, what's the matter? The water is too hot, I can't drink it yet."

The emperor shook his head, "I'm not thirsty. I heard from Xiaojiu that your cooking is delicious. I want to see what you cook?"

"Ah?" Er Niu was taken aback, seeing the vegetables he bought when he came back, "You guys came here specially for the taro today, why don't you just have a taro feast?"

"Can taro make many dishes?" Now the emperor was stunned.

"Yes." Er Niu was surprised, "I wrote five or six recipes for Su Jiu when he left, didn't he ask the cook to follow suit?"

"I've only eaten boiled taro." I couldn't help cursing inwardly, Su Jiu, you bastard!

Now Er Niu didn't know what to say, so he called, "Qi Sheng, go dig some taro."

Su Bayi hurriedly followed, and asked as he walked, "Brother Qi, when will the taro in Zhangjiacun be dug out?"

Qi Sheng said, "In a few days, when the taro is harvested, the rice will soon be harvested."

And Su Ba saw a withered yellow area by the river, "Those are taro?"

"No! That's lotus root."

"Lotus root?" Su Jiu asked in surprise, "Can you still grow lotus roots?"

Qi Sheng said, "Er Niu knows how to grow. By the way, I will dig another lotus root and let Er Niu make it for us to eat." After digging the taro, it went into the river.

When the villagers saw that he was covered in mud, they were about to ask him what was wrong, when they saw Su Jiu next to him, "Isn't this Brother Su who wants to buy our taro?"

"Yes! Er Niu is still waiting for them to taste our taro." Qi Sheng knew the problems of the villagers, and he could talk for a long time without repeating the same thing when he pulled a person to talk.

"Master Qi, you, you are really good. If you want taro or lotus root, call me and I will dig it. Look at you." He said, snatching the lotus root in his hand and the taro in Su Jiu's hand, "I will send it back for you. You also hurry up, be careful not to catch a cold."

The emperor looked straight from the side, "Well, the people in this village are really nice."

"Brother, why have you become so naive." Su Jiu laughed, "Er Niu and Brother Qi are the Gods of Wealth in Zhangjia Village. There is no one in this world who can make everyone like him, but the God of Wealth is an exception."

"Brother Su was joking." Qi Sheng's face flushed slightly, "The God of Wealth is a second-rate man, and I have been honored by the God of Wealth."

"Without your support, Er Niu wouldn't have led the villagers to become rich so quickly."

Qi Sheng smiled and did not explain further.Instead, he asked, "Why is Eighth Brother Su also here?"

The emperor would not say that he came to see Er Niu on purpose, thinking of the two getting married, "Brother Qi, what are you and Er Niu?"

"As you can see, we see each other right." It's all right to say to others, "I just don't know if it will affect Maverick's participation in the scientific examination."

"The imperial court does not have this prohibition. As long as there are no criminals in your family, it will not affect them."

Qi Sheng also knew that, just to be on the safe side, he still wanted to ask the Su family brothers who came from Kyoto.

And the emperor asked casually, "How many catties of taro do you think Zhangjiacun can harvest this time?"

"Nearly [-] acres of mud flats, including those on the hillside, may be able to harvest [-] to [-] catties."

"So many!?" The emperor was surprised.

Er Niu said, "Not much. We didn't add any fertilizer, otherwise we would collect more." He picked up the cleaned lotus root, and called Qi Sheng to light the fire, and the emperor sat in front of the pot instead.

Two cows and one cold, this emperor is really interesting!

Qi Sheng also hurriedly said, "I'll do it."

The emperor said, "Don't underestimate me, I know how to light a fire."

"Then I will trouble you." Er Niu glanced at Su Jiu staring at Su Ba nervously from the corner of his eyes, and immediately confirmed that Su Ba was the emperor.And in order not to let himself think about it, he cut the taro and the ribs, and asked Qi Sheng to kill the chicken if the ribs were not ready.

Not only did Maverick not feel sorry for his chicken this time, he even took the initiative to give his chicken leg to Su Ba, "Brother Su, my second brother's chicken nuggets are the best! Do you know He Ji Restaurant? The cook there Not as good as my second brother."

"Thank you, I love chicken wings." The emperor was two rounds older than the calf, so he had the nerve to eat the child's chicken legs, so he asked, "What's in this bowl?"

Er Niu said, "Lotus seeds, have Brother Su eaten them?"

The emperor shook his head. "I've eaten lotus root, but it's not as good as yours." No wonder Lao Jiu praised Erniu's ability when he returned home.

"Haha, this lotus seed is what's inside the lotus flower. It's delicious. Brother Su, if you like it, you can bring some back home. I have a lot at home."

"Yes! It's fifty catties." Maverick gnawed on the chicken leg and said, "Second brother, can we give half to Brother Su?"

Two cows and one suffocation, "...you are so generous!"

Maverick said "Wow", "Second brother, what are you talking about? Say it again!"

"Eat it!" Er Niu stuffed his mouth with a piece of taro and asked, "Brother Su, is the taro delicious?"

The emperor burped and said, "It's more than delicious! I never thought that a small taro can be made into so many tricks. But it's all thanks to Er Niu's cooking skills."

"Of course! Brother Su, let me tell you, the second brother cooks three dishes at a time, and he can cook them for a month without repeating the same dishes."

The emperor smiled, glanced at Su Jiu, and said silently, is this the cheapskate you mentioned?little bastard?Then he added, "I'm going back in a few days."

"So fast? You just came here! How could you just leave!" Maverick was a little reluctant, "We are going to the county tomorrow, can you spend a few more days, I will take you to the mountain, there are so many things to do on the mountain Mile."

The child's sincere eyes warmed the emperor's heart, "We will meet again when we have a chance." But no one thought that this farewell would be ten years.
