After reconciliation, abandoned wives and cubs farm the fields

Chapter 238
"You know how to kill fish?"

"I've seen other people kill fish."

"Then read it again, carefully."

Just as she was talking, Mu Furong came back with a big basket in one hand and a cauldron in the other.

Su Nanzhen asked her to clean the pot first, then boil hot water, and she was going to make fish in water.

"Understood." Mu Furong's appetite was hooked when Mu Furong heard that she was going to make water-soaked fish, good guy, they were thinking about it just once she said it.

The fish was ready to be put into the pot, so she hurriedly washed the pot and boiled water.

Su Nanzhen put ginger, green onion and ginger water in the pot, and added a little pepper. I don't know if the two little ones like the taste of pepper, so she only put a little bit.

Taking advantage of the hibiscus boiling water, Su Nanzhen quickly prepared the chicken, and then went to kill the fish.

Let Su Yanxin watch from the side this time, she slowed down to let him take a good look.

Remove the fish scales, open the belly, scrape off the black film and other things inside, and scrape the fish skin again, so that it is not so fishy, ​​Su Nanzhen explained while doing it.

"The water is boiling." Mu Furong shouted as she watched the water vapor rising straight up.

"Here comes the fish." Su Nanzhen took the freshly killed fish into the kitchen, then put the fish into the pot, covered the pot, and checked whether the fire was off.

"It's all taken out." Mu Furong said, pointing to the discarded tile vat beside her.

"I'm going to prepare the ingredients and dipping sauce." Su Nanzhen nodded with satisfaction.

Just to save trouble and make it quicker, after the water-soaked fish is ready, turn on the fire, then add the chicken directly, and cook the tofu and Chinese cabbage in another pot. When it is almost ready, add the soup from the fish and chicken, and the taste will be improved several times at once. levels.

Adding winter melon to the remaining soup is another dish, plus baked potatoes along the way. Four dishes and one soup are enough for 14 people.

"Cousin's cooking is really delicious." Su Wanxin praised vaguely while eating.

"This child is a picky eater, so it can be seen that the dishes you cook are really delicious." Mrs. Su was very pleased to see her daughter eating happily.

"Don't be greedy for delicious food. The child has a bad spleen and stomach, and it will be uncomfortable after eating." Su Nanzhen refused her request for more food, and turned to Miss Su, "Don't worry, aunt, as long as you take care of it, it's not a big deal .”

"You really hit the spot." Mrs. Su sighed, but she found a doctor to treat her daughter, and the money was spent, but she didn't see any improvement.

"Are you still going to see a doctor?" Mrs. Su asked in surprise.

"I don't know, but Sister Lanzhi is a doctor, so she knows a little bit about it." Su Nanzhen shook her head, "It's a pity that I can't even help my cousin with half a bucket of water."

"I really want to meet your god-sister." Mrs. Su said enviously, envious of them being able to live so freely.

"There will be a chance." Su Nanzhen said lightly.

She is paving the way, a road that can lead them directly to Yanjing, and only in this way can the jade pendant hidden on the body of the uncle and mother be seen again.

Su Nanzhen's determination gave the already disheartened two people a glimmer of hope, but they had already learned not to show joy, nor did they ask carefully.

After dinner, Su Nanzhen packed up his things, returned what should be returned, and then took them to the fields to have a look.

"It's all planted?" Mrs. Su asked in disbelief.

"Well, I'm still busy, and it's almost done." Su Nanzhen looked at the people who were far away from them.

"Miss Su, you are here, do you have any suggestions?" Guanli of Lindong Village was about to go to the fields, and when he saw their group, he asked carelessly.

"It's a bit of an idea. The potatoes are almost planted. Please ask them to heat the ground a little bit, which will help the potatoes germinate faster." Su Nanzhen told him her thoughts.

"Are straws and haystacks all right?" Guan Li was thinking about it, and asked carefully.

"Yes, it's still a little cold. If this continues, the potatoes will germinate much slower. How much to put in and how hot you are. You are also a good hand at the grower. It's almost enough. Potatoes are cold-resistant." Su Nanzhen nodded.

"know."

"When you finish your work or if there are people, I want to open a plot in the yard. Three or four people from your two villages will come over to teach me how to raise seedlings and some small-scale planting techniques."

"Okay, I'll ask the women in the village to learn from you in a while, and learn to plant a little in the yard."

"No, no, raising seedlings in advance in weather like this can shorten the time for potato planting. You should also learn it, and you will have a chance to use it next time."

"It doesn't matter, it's the same if they do things like raising seedlings."

Guan Lizheng agreed, and went to tell old man Qu about it. Old man Qu came to tell Su Nanzhen himself that he could send someone to learn how to grow potatoes with her tomorrow.

"Well, let's start tomorrow, but the ground has already begun to spread a layer of straws to stimulate the seedlings?"

"I've sent people to get the straws, and I'll finish them today."

"also."

"By the way, Lord Yao heard that a horse thief appeared last night. He said he would report it to the court, and he also said that he would stay with us tonight."

"I see."

Su Nanzhen was stunned for a moment. Now that the potatoes have been planted, it is impossible for horse thieves to dig them out, but it is still necessary to prevent horse thieves from hurting people and robbing food.

Mrs. Su and Mrs. Su were feeling that Su Nanzhen was sophisticated, but when they heard that Yao Dan was going to stay, they couldn't help but worry about how they should go back.

Su Nanzhen noticed their worries, and without thinking too much, she quickly said that she could arrange for someone to take them back to the city. Anyway, she also wanted to go to the city to buy something.

"It's time for us to go back. We can't help you here, so we won't delay your business." Mrs. Su took advantage of the situation and proposed to leave.

"I'm just talking about it, I can't delay it." Su Nanzhen said with a smile.

But they insisted on leaving, so Su Nanzhen didn't want to keep them anymore, and also politely rejected Mrs. Su's suggestion that she leave her two cousins ​​as coolies for him. They should learn from their uncle. She only knows how to farm and can't teach them any skills.

"Okay, let's go back first. You are about to get married. You still have to protect your hands. If you don't have the conditions, that's fine. If you have the conditions, you still have to take good care of your hands." Mrs. Su shook her hand. Holding her hand, you can feel the calluses in her hand, and said very distressed.

"Yeah." Su Nanzhen responded, although her hands often work, but they are not so ugly, if he dares to dislike...

He dare not.

But she still agreed with the words of the elders.

When the group returned home, Su Nanzhen made a list and asked the hidden guards to help with the purchases, and then sent them back to the city along the way.

Everyone just got into the carriage, Yao Dan's entourage hurried over, saying that he was ordered by his master to send Mrs. Su and the others back.

A carriage may be a bit cramped, so let's sit separately.

Su Nanzhen watched them leave, and returned to the courtyard after a while.

"Mom, can I go to their house?" Eggy asked with some reluctance.
