Go back to the Admiral's youth through the book

Chapter 23 (23) The Little Thing

When Ji Cheng arrived in the courtyard, he met the tenants who came to send firewood.

Yang Zhuzi put down the firewood and started chopping it neatly. After that, he didn't forget to sweep up the sawdust and collected it with a dustpan.

This is Jicheng who came to help him with the work. According to the price in the county, he paid three Wen for each load of firewood, and he added two Wen to the wages.

Yang Zhuzi was very grateful, and would fill the big tank with water in time every day, and worked hard without complaint.

Ji Cheng gave Yang Zhuzi the five cents from the daily settlement, and said, "You have a lot of loofahs in your family, right?"

"Yes, I won an acre of land. I sell fresh ones in the city. The old loofah vines can be used for bathing and making insoles. There is no place to waste. How much do you want? I will send you some tomorrow? No money ..."

"I don't want loofah, I want loofah water..."

When Ji Cheng heard that he was a loofah fan again, he quickly stopped him and told Yang Zhuzi how to pick loofah water.

He also gave him five Wen, and asked him to send five barrels every day.

Ji Cheng thought about bathing with loofah water, which would be more convenient than wrapping adult cured sticks. Since his little lady likes loofah water, let her have enough fun during this season.

Yang Zhuzi was overjoyed and immediately agreed.

You must know that after the loofah is picked, the loofah vines are used to feed the pigs, and the pigs can't finish eating so much, so he has an extra five renminbi a day, and a total of ten renminbi a day.

After a month, it is equivalent to three renminbi of silver. It is like money falling from the sky. It is completely unthinkable...

"Tomorrow, I'm going to the back mountain to worship my father. Help me buy some sacrifices." Ji Cheng took out the written note and half a tael of silver from his sleeve pocket, and handed them to him together.

When Yang Zhuzi thought of Master Ji, the little joy in his heart disappeared, and he said, "Yes, young master, I will buy everything!"

After Ji Cheng made arrangements for the loofah water, he went back to continue studying.

"Dong dong dong!" Xia Ou knocked lightly on the door and said, "The rice is ready!"

Today, she cooks by herself, and ever since she knew that the admiral was going to take the provincial examination, she wanted to spend more time for him to study, and didn't let him stay close to the cook.

"Here we come!" Ji Cheng stood up and went to the hall, scanning the dishes on the table.

That's right, without a loofah, she's still a pretty girl.

Just when he was feeling relieved, Xia Ou came over with a bowl of soup.

The emerald green soup is sandwiched with traces of egg flowers.

It is very thick loofah soup, very thick, very thick...

She said not to eat dishes made of loofah, so she made loofah soup? !

She is really well-behaved, how dare she blatantly obey her and betray her!

Xia Ou saw that the admiral's face was sullen, and he looked like he was asking for an explanation. Suddenly, Xiaogan and Xiaojian shuddered at the same time.

Her skin beautification career has just begun, and getting loofah water is actually not easy. You have to find good loofah vines first, and then fetch water after picking the loofah.

The juice is here, but the loofah can't be wasted, can it?

The sweat drips down to the soil, and every grain is hard.Ever since she took care of the vegetable garden, she understands the hard work of the farmers, so naturally it cannot be wasted!
Her eyes rolled around, and her small eyes swept over, forming a big smile.

"The delicious loofah soup is here. The loofah and shiitake mushrooms are the main ingredients. It has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. At the same time, it is also suitable for bad breath and sore joints. It is most suitable for husbands to heal injuries!"

With this nervousness, her tongue didn't tie up anymore.

"Your tongue is okay?" Ji Cheng was distracted by her voice.

This was the first time he heard her speak a complete sentence after his wedding!
Xia Ou tried to say a few more words, but found that the function of language was still weakened.

Just now, she was only inspired by her strong desire to survive.

"Occasionally... the tongue can be untied."

"My lady, I'd better talk less for the time being. My throat hasn't recovered yet. If I get hurt again, it won't be cured by medicine."

"Hmm!" Xia Ou also felt her throat itch just after saying a few words.

"However, you can practice a little in front of your husband, and don't talk too much when you meet outsiders."

Xia Ou: "..." He was the one who forbade her to speak, and he was the one who made her speak. This arrogant admiral is really difficult to serve.

"Husband, please use the soup!" A bowl of thick loofah soup was offered.

Hmph, isn't someone tired of eating?
Ji Cheng's gaze shifted from the loofah soup to her small face with mischievous eyebrows.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "I'm going to end the provincial examination in July and early August, and I need to leave for Yanjing in advance, do you want to go together?"

"Didn't you go to Yanjing only after you have a test?" Xia Ou felt a little apprehensive when she thought of the close relative who killed the admiral.

The admiral is so smart, yet he will be coaxed to cleanse himself after entering the palace. He feels that this is not an easy matter.

Ji Cheng didn't know the little Jiujiu in her heart, but thought that the little lady had never been out of Qinghe County and her knowledge was limited.

So, he kindly explained, "Qinghe County belongs to Guangping Prefecture, and Guangping Prefecture belongs to Beizhili. Beizhili has eight prefectures, eighteen prefectures, 110 and seven counties. The students are gathered together, and when the provincial examinations are held, the scholars from the Northern Strait will also go there."

Xia Ou believes that things are human-made, she has survived through hard work, presumably Ji Cheng can also avoid disaster smoothly.

She was hesitating how to clarify her point of view so as not to be burned to death as a monster, but also to gain approval, when she heard Yang Zhuzi's voice from outside.

"Master, I brought loofah water, take a look, is my method correct?"

Hearing this, Xia Ou was taken aback.

Could this loofah water be prepared by the admiral for her?
Under the indiscriminate bombardment of loofahs, this master not only disliked loofahs, but rather hated them.

After all this, he still prepares loofah water for himself?

Unlikely, is it?
Perhaps he was full of anger, and his fair face was stained with a touch of popularity, as if he had descended from the sky to the secular world, and no longer lived so high in the clouds, but that girl-like appearance was even more seductive. soul-stirring.

Extremely charming, like a nine-tailed fox fairy...

At this moment, he seems to have attracted all of her attention and eyes.

Her lips moved slightly, trying to say something, but found that she couldn't say anything, except for the scorching heat, there was only the sound of "bang bang bang" deer.

Under the obsessive gaze of the little lady, Ji Cheng remained still for a moment, allowing her to be obsessed with him.

The little lady's eyes were staring straight, almost lost in ecstasy.

Even so, he never felt the slightest resentment.

Hmph, for the sake of the family, he will allow her to watch it!
There was a smile on the corner of Ji Cheng's lips, the smile seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, and he said, "Lady, go and see if this loofah water meets your requirements?"

"Little dog, what do you think of this loofah water?" Yang Zhuzi was very concerned about his next business.

When Ji Cheng's eyes fell on Yang Zhuzi, he paused and reminded, "My wife is married, so she should be called Mrs. Ji!"

"Yes, young master, I will definitely remember this time!" Yang Zhuzi admitted his mistake with a good attitude.
