The boss is dressed as cannon fodder

23. The farmer's child bride23

When the old imperial doctor came to harvest medicinal materials, most of the rice in the village was ripe, and it looked golden from a distance, which was very pleasant.

"Grandpa the Royal Physician..." the two girls said sweetly, "We want to go and stew beef with potatoes. It's delicious. Can we go together?"

Potato? What the hell?

The old imperial doctor didn't understand. Seeing that he was about to be dragged away by the two girls, he quickly took out some homemade candies.

"Wow, it's mint-flavored candy. It's so sweet."

The two girls thanked the old imperial doctor softly, their smiles sweeter than sugar.

"Ahem, the weather is dry in autumn. These are throat lozenges. It doesn't hurt to eat more." The old imperial doctor had a serious face, but his eyes were soft.

The stupid apprentice Da Niu pouted, it's not like he never made throat lozenges before, the old imperial doctor was stingy, and they only had a little honey and a medicinal smell, nothing like these specially made ones. The name is that the lozenges are more delicious than ordinary sugar.

"Brother Daniel, hurry up! Pull out the potatoes and I'll prepare some delicious food for you tonight."

Da Niu immediately laughed. Jiang Dao has raised two daughters well. They are white and cute, like little fairies, and have a sweet mouth. Not to mention that the old imperial doctor can't stand it. He wants to steal her home just by looking at them.

When several people arrived at the potato field, the old doctor was a little surprised. The potato field was not obvious and he had not noticed it before.

Jiang He and Shun Niang were pulling peanuts in the field today and looking at the sun. It was almost lunch time. Yesterday, the family killed a chicken and ate half of it. There was still half of it left. The potatoes were about to mature, so the chicken stewed with potatoes was so delicious.

"The old doctor came just in time. Let's eat something good today." Jiang He said with a smile on his face.

Doctors are interested in new species. The old imperial doctor and Daniel looked at the endless potato field, what are these? I have never seen or heard of this new thing from Jiang University? I'm really ignorant, I don't even understand something like an acre.

The eldest girl happily went to look for the potatoes that were said to be ripe with her father, and told the old imperial doctor the story of the potatoes. The focus was on the taste of the potatoes - the old imperial doctor almost thought that this was a delicacy that could only be eaten by gods.

"Fresh species bought by maritime merchants from overseas? Are they the same as melons? They just grow underground?"

Daniel was also very curious. Jiang He just said which tree was ripe, and he immediately pulled it out hard.

"It's better to use a shovel. Where can I pull it out..."

The dirt fell down, and Jiang He immediately shut up. How could he forget how neatly Daniel broke his leg?

The old imperial doctor was dumbfounded as he looked at the stupid apprentice's gadgets. There were seven or eight potatoes under one plant, ranging from a small one to a baby's fist, to a large one weighing more than half a catty.

Jiang He picked the potatoes and said, "Well, I was still deceived. Didn't they say one plant weighs more than ten kilograms?" This plant weighed more than ten kilograms at most. Jiang He was not very happy and felt that the system had deceived him. The highest record for potatoes weighed by one plant was how many pounds. What about ten pounds?

The old imperial doctor looked at this large field of potatoes with a dry mouth. One plant weighed almost ten kilograms? How big is this piece of land?

***

Arriving at Jiang Dalang's house, Daniel helped the master pick medicinal materials.

"Master, what's wrong? I'm in a daze today. Isn't this medicinal material very good?" Jiang Da is very considerate of all kinds of medicinal materials and the quality is very good.

"I was thinking about potatoes..."

Daniel touched his belly and said, "Master, are you hungry? I'm hungry too." It took half an hour for Jiang Da's family to cook, so he and his master simply collected herbs first.

"Stupid apprentice!"

Daniel looked at the master innocently, why did he call him stupid again?

When eating, Daniel particularly likes chicken stewed with potatoes. Not only is it soft and glutinous, but the potatoes are especially delicious when dipped in the aroma of chicken.

He was a big eater and had a big bowl full of potato stewed chicken. Seeing how sincere he was in treating guests, he happily ate as much as he wanted.

The old imperial doctor particularly liked the spicy and sour potato shreds, which was a refreshing meal. The two little girls’ favorite became shredded potatoes, which they ate without raising their heads.

"The potato plant is here today?"

"How can we eat so much? We can take up to six kilograms for cooking, and there are still more than four kilograms left on the ground. Brother Daniel, you like to pull some out and take them home later. As you can see, our family can't eat so much." "Many."

"You want me to pull out two plants later." The old doctor said bluntly.

The old imperial doctor felt his stomach, as if he was too full. These potatoes were not meant to be eaten as a vegetable. They could clearly be eaten as rice. He could eat two of them with a bowl of rice cooked.

After dinner, the group returned to the potato field for a walk with hungry stomachs.

"These are not yet ripe." Jiang He picked up the ripe potatoes and motioned for the bull to pull them out. "These two plants are about the same. They won't gain much weight no matter how long they grow."

The old imperial doctor put more than twenty kilograms of potatoes under the medicine basket, covered it with medicinal materials, and went home with his stupid apprentice with a serious look on his face.

That night, several homing pigeons flew out from Qingyun County.

Shun Niang struggled to carry a bucket in. Hot steam came out of the bucket, and a faint medicinal fragrance filled the air.

Jiang He quickly took it and said, "My legs are completely healed now. I still need to soak them."

"The old imperial doctor said your foot is healed, but it will hurt when it rains or snows. Bubbles can prevent it."

Shun Niang lowered her head to massage his acupuncture points, "Husband, did you do this on purpose?"

"What?"

Shun Niang paused for a moment, raised her head and smiled, "You don't like our county prince, do you?"

Jiang He looked at his wife with admiration, "Shun Niang is really smart. I think the county magistrate is trying too hard to gain fame..." In the original article, why is Shun Niang's fate so miserable? Jiang Hai wanted to gain reputation and broke the chastity arch for Shun Niang. Instead of stopping him, the county magistrate Praise lavishly.

Tsk, you really have the ability to rely on political achievements. If you try hard to gain fame without showing political achievements, you still have a good reputation at the expense of weak women...

Jiang He stood up and put on his shoes, then pressed Shun Niang down again, put her legs in the bucket and soaked them, recalled the acupuncture points she pressed, and pressed them for her gently.

Shun Niang was touched and amused. If it got out that she asked her husband to wash his feet, she was afraid that she would be beaten to death by the moralists. It has always been women who wash men's feet. When will it be the other way around?

"There's nothing wrong with my feet." She struggled embarrassedly.

"Didn't the old imperial physician say that this foot soaking prescription can not only relieve rheumatism but also relieve fatigue?" Jiang He didn't care, holding her feet tightly, "Let's soak together if it's good."

Shun Niang looked at Jiang He with a focused and eager look. That's all. If her husband hates the county magistrate, then he can hate him. If he wants to go against the county magistrate, then he can go against him... What is she afraid of? She is not afraid of going through fire and water!

The autumn harvest is about to start again. Old Chen is worried as she looks at the golden rice fields. She has to hire temporary workers to help with the harvest. How much money will it cost?

Yesterday, some villagers said that Jiang He was picking peanuts on the hillside. So his leg should be healed, so working is not a big problem...

Mrs. Chen suppressed her thoughts. Da O's cold attitude repeatedly showed that he did not regard her as his mother and would definitely not help.

Mrs. Chen suppressed her inner panic. In the past few months, Da O really only gave her 100 coins every month. What can this money do? His family eats meat every day and does not know how to be frugal. The money saved from eating meat can be used to buy a few books for Er O.

Mrs. Chen secretly regretted it in her heart. If she had known that she would not be so stiff with Da O at the beginning... She did not regret the partiality in the division of the family, but she regretted that she should have said something nice to appease Da O and continued to communicate without tearing her face.

"Mrs. Chen, do you know that Jiang He in your family is very powerful? The county magistrate came to his house."

"What?"

Mrs. Chen looked suspicious. The county magistrate came to find Da O? Wrong, he should have come to find Er O. He must have gone to the wrong place.

She hurriedly followed the curious villagers. The county magistrate was busy with all kinds of things and must not know about the division of the Jiang family. He must have gone to the wrong place.

Er O must have studied well and let the county magistrate know about it, so the county magistrate came to visit before the exam.

"The county magistrate went to Jiang Da O's house with a group of people."

"Good guy, the people with the county magistrate are all strong young men. The head constables in our county are not so impressive."

"That group of young men should not be simple. Didn't you see that the county magistrate was respectful to the young boy who led them?"

The women were the most excited. "Although the leading boy was young, he was handsome, like an immortal."

"Not only him, but all the young men are handsome."

"I wonder if they are married?"

Old Chen followed the curious villagers silently. She no longer dreamed that the county magistrate came to find Er O, because the leader was the old imperial physician, and he couldn't have gone the wrong way.
