Comprehensive Victoria's Secret

Elizabeth and Antonio could not imagine with their toes that the sheep would cause them so much trouble.

Frankly speaking, everything is going well on the farm, except that they need to buy too many things, which has caused their family funds to be a bit beyond the budget.

Shropshire lambs are hardy, full of life, with good meat and fine wool.Ewes are very useful. They can shear sheep and give birth to lambs. If you don’t dislike them, you can also drink goat’s milk... So much so that the Shropshire sheep were chosen as the mascot prototype for the 2012 London Olympics.

In the Victorian era, mutton was considered a fairly cheap meat, and many middle-class people ate a lot of mutton, so they were also called "Mutton-Eaters".

Then came the problem. Neither Antonio nor Elizabeth had any experience in raising sheep. Although they were both considered Christians, they obviously had nothing to do with the profession of "pastor". (The word used in the original text of the pastor's Bible means shepherd.)

Antonio was full of confidence to catch sheep, no, to buy sheep, but problems soon appeared.

Elizabeth cleaned up the room and went to feed the pigs and cows that had arrived a few days ago. After feeding the animals, she returned to the room. While cleaning the room, she wondered when Antonio would bring the sheep back—wait, why do I feel like a red wolf? ?

In Elizabeth's mind, there was a picture of herself holding a pan and slapping Antonio's face: "I want to eat sheep!"

She looked at the fried egg pan she was wiping: "..."

What's for dinner... Elizabeth was checking the materials in the house.

Now the meat they ate was basically cured bacon. There was some fresh meat but not much. Elizabeth decided to get rid of them before the fresh meat went bad.

However, no matter how much the two-person family eats, it is impossible to finish these things before summer... Elizabeth has a headache again, she looks at the meat and fruits in the storage room... Forget it, find a way to get these The fruit is done.

Elizabeth cut up plums and crabapple fruits, and prepared to boil a pot of hot and sour sauce. After calculating the time, the winter wheat sowing season happened to be the best time in September.

Elizabeth is processing the fruit, and she also needs to prepare ginger, turmeric, red pepper, cloves, etc., and she does the same according to the cookbook at hand. She is no stranger to the kitchen, and she also cooks the stove in the kitchen of Whitechapel However, for these dishes, she can only learn slowly like a novice.

While she was carefully concentrating the powder, she heard Antonio's voice: "Liz! Come and help me!"

Elizabeth immediately dropped the knife in her hand and rushed out.

Antonio appeared in front of her sweating profusely: "Here are sheep, there are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... fifteen, and seven sheep are lost. You take them to the sheepfold. I have to find them."

"Hey!" Antonio ran away, and Elizabeth didn't have time to stop him.

Elizabeth looked at the large flock of sheep beside her: "I don't know what to do! Antonio!"

Elizabeth has always been a good child.

Estelle was very satisfied with the lady class except for the waist, and she was also very attentive when learning fighting. In terms of homework, she could also be admitted to Cambridge in the Victorian era.

However, all this is helpless when faced with a group of sheep.

Elizabeth finally understood why Pleasant Goat could drive Big Big Wolf crazy-because she was going crazy too.

"Drive!" Elizabeth tried her best to blast the sheep into the sheepfold, wait, that's the driver.

"Meh!" Elizabeth began to think of various ways to get the sheep into the sheepfold.

Elizabeth racked her brains to think of a way. Since ancient times... oh yes, there once was Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty... At that time, she used sheep carts to choose beauty... What is the method for those beauties...

Use the mulberry leaves that sheep like to eat and add salt water to lure the sheep, and some people are even more amazing!They carried the ewe's cubs to their bedroom, but the ewe wanted to find a lamb to suckle, so they ran to those people's bedroom one after another.There are also hard-working sheep calling skills...

Elizabeth thought about it for a long time, and it was impossible for the sheep to cry. She learned how to listen to the sheep just now, and it didn't look like it. The ewe's cub...hasn't conceived yet...

I can only use mulberry leaves and salt water... Where are the mulberry leaves...

Elizabeth could only use brute force in the end, she took out her gun and shot the sky, and then...

Then the sheep scattered and fled.

Elizabeth was so frantic that she ran after—

"You stop for me!"

After a lot of fighting, Elizabeth finally locked the nine sheep into the sheepfold, and then the six sheep disappeared all over the world.

Elizabeth looked around sweating profusely, but found only one sheep.

Antonio was beating a sheep, and there was a man he didn't know beside him. Elizabeth ran over with her skirt in her hand: "Tony?"

"Liz?" Antonio panted with his hands on his knees: "How are the sheep at home?"

"I have locked nine sheep in, and the remaining six sheep have all been lost. I only found one of them." Elizabeth said while wiping her sweat.

"My God, why is it so difficult." Antonio wiped his sweat, "My physical strength is pretty good, but I'm so tired that I'm about to fall down."

"After you have settled down the flock, you must also remember this sentence. All the shepherds have tacit understanding of this: sheep are the only species of creatures created by God that are willing to seek death quickly." The unknown The man told her: "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Lancaster. I'm old Sweeney the shepherd."

"You can arrange things...when you think you're in order, they can mess you up."

Although Elizabeth was very satisfied with the address of Mrs. Lancaster, the fact she heard could completely wipe out her demeanor that could fool the entire London social season. She propped her forehead and rolled her eyes: "Oh, Oh my God."

"Okay, let's go find those lost sheep." Antonio waved his hand: "Thank you, Mr. Sweeney."

Antonio bounced up the rope and was about to reach the top of the tree, but he kicked off and fell down.

Elizabeth hurried over to help him up: "What happened?"

"I think the sling has reached the twig, but it's not enough to bear the weight of a person." Antonio climbed to the top of the tree as he said, "I'll see where the sheep are."

"It's so tall, are you sure it's okay?" Elizabeth looked up at Antonio on the tree.She didn't have the skill to climb trees, so she could only stay under the tree.

"No problem." Antonio said, "I have eagle eyes, which can see through walls, and now I can see the sheep... Oh, yes, there is one over there, entangled in the bushes." Antonio said Leap of faith jumped into the haystack from the tree, and then he came out of the haystack: "A haystack without a pitchfork is the most beautiful thing in the world." Elizabeth was about to explode, and Antonio made another arrangement: "You Go back and prepare dinner, and I'll find the sheep."

Elizabeth went back with some worries. The fruits at home hadn't been processed yet. She needed to go back and store enough fruits and vegetables so that they wouldn't drink the northwest wind in winter.

When Elizabeth got home, she made sweet chili and tomato salsa.However, after looking for sheep for a long time, she no longer had the strength to cook too troublesome dishes, so Elizabeth decided to make the most traditional British dishes.

There are only two ways to make British food: bake it in the oven, or cook it in a pot. When cooking, you don’t put any condiments, and when you eat, you can put some salt, pepper or mustard, spicy soy sauce according to your preference. kind.

That's right, it was so simple and rude, so Elizabeth didn't even bother to make pudding. She boiled a pot of water on the stove, threw in a leg of lamb, covered the pot, and went upstairs to remove bed bugs.

Elizabeth used to have someone tidy up her bedroom before, so she didn't know about the existence of bed bugs. It was only when she occasionally went out to pick wild berries to talk to the nearby peasant women that she learned about it.

With turpentine and salt, scrubbing and scrubbing with brushes and cloth towels, Elizabeth felt like she was going to collapse when the mattress was remade.

Then she saw Antonio's dirty clothes again, and felt her head hurt again: "My God..."

In the era when there was no washing machine, Elizabeth could be exhausted by washing a piece of clothing.

Although every child who has lived in school has the experience of washing clothes, there are not only no washing machines in this era, but there is also no washing powder and laundry detergent...

Elizabeth wanted to faint like Estelle now, but... had no choice.

She sorts the dirty laundry first, and then... oh, let's start work tomorrow, she's too tired to get up.

She sorted the dirty clothes into categories, put them in baskets in the laundry room according to the stain, and treated them with chemicals.

Elizabeth was having a headache. She had never been exposed to farm life in the Victorian era before. Estelle would at least let her learn some housework, or at least she could learn from the practices of her own servants. However, washing clothes... because the big house does not Like the smell of laundry, Elizabeth had never seen a washerwoman.

Antonio was also obviously tired. When Elizabeth sorted out the clothes and soaked them back to the house, he almost fell directly on the chair.

"I cooked the leg of lamb." Elizabeth gave him a plate and a knife and fork, and used tools to remove the leg of lamb from the pot.

When she sat across from Antonio, Elizabeth had time to ask: "How is today?"

"It's not too bad, at least 22 sheep have been locked in the sheepfold." Antonio cut a piece of lamb and ate it: "Can you pass me the salt shaker?"

"I'm sorry, I've been cooking mutton so roughly today, I really don't have the strength."

"It won't make you so tired next time." Antonio rubbed his hair: "At least my eagle eyes still have no problem finding the missing sheep."

"You look for sheep with eagle eyes?"

"Yeah, I guess the eagle eye of the master assassin should still be reliable."

"Yes, very reliable, my dear."

The author has something to say: Look for sheep with eagle eyes!That's why I wrote this paragraph!
