Chapter 111 Fish Pond Renovation

When Qingyu and Zhufeng arrived home, the other three hadn't returned, so the two started tidying up the yard.

Now all the plants and flowers in the house have been revived, and the flowers are full of flowers and greenery. Only the fish pond in the front yard has been dried up for more than half a year, and now it is a pool of mud.

The fish pond is not too small, it is more than three feet long and two feet wide, and there are three curved beam bridges built on it, which can be seen by people walking on the pond.The weeping willows fluttering around the fish pond, if not for the silt in the pond, it would be considered pleasant.

"It would take a lot of water to fill such a big pool." Chasing the wind was a bit embarrassing. This year's weather is dry, so water is especially precious, but leaving such a pool of silt alone is really an eyesore.

Not to mention the hot summer and the amount of rotting matter in the pool, the smell is hard to describe when exposed to the sun.

Qingyu poked a stick into the pond, thought for a while, and felt a little happy, "We grow lotus roots, which are rotten mud, which is just right. It's good to have the pond full of lotus flowers in summer, and we can dig lotus roots when the lotus flowers wither. eat."

After listening to the wind, I was also happy, "It's a good idea. When the pond is full of lotus flowers, the courtyard will be full of lotus fragrance, and it can't be more comfortable."

Seeing that it was still early in the sky, Qing Yu proposed: "Go to the market to see if there are any lotus root seeds to buy."

Zhuifeng turned around and went to get the back basket, then the two locked the door and went straight to Daquwan.

Since Daquwan is in the most prosperous area of ​​Yinzhou, there are many styles of things, so I ran two streets and bought [-] catties of lotus root seeds from a vegetable farmer selling lotus root, and filled a basket full.

Going back to Jiuqu, I happened to meet Wenya Shi'an and Hongtao at the door.As soon as Hongtao saw Qingyu, she immediately picked up a cloth bag, and asked with a smile, "Junior Sister Head, guess how much money is in it."

Qing Yu smiled and shook her head, "I can't guess."

Wen Ya opened the door, and a few people entered the courtyard, before Hearts made an exaggerated five, "50 taels." Then she opened the cloth bag and showed Qing Yu, "Look, look. The Liu family is generous, I've thought about it." , next time he comes again, I will give him a cheaper price, [-]% cheaper."

Qing Yu chuckled.Shi'an was both helpless and teasing: "I almost can't get the money."

"He dares. If he dares to renege on his debts, I will turn his house into a haunted house." Hearts clenched her fists.

Zhufeng shrugged the pannier on his back, and thought very well: "In this way, wouldn't we be able to become rich soon?"

Hongtao, however, sighed in disappointment, "It's not like rich people can die every day and wait for me. Today, the junior sister of the head of the sect made a fortune, and tomorrow I have to go out to find it myself." She also has her own way of looking for death.

Wen Ya took a look into the wind pannier, and asked strangely: "What are you buying a lot of?"

"Lotus seeds. The head junior sister said to plant lotus roots in the pond, and when they bloom in summer, the yard will be full of lotus color." A group of people came to the front yard, carried the baskets directly to the pond by the wind, and said :
"Take a breath first, and then plant this lotus root. The lotus root farmer said that it is a bit late now, so we have to hurry up."

Wen Ya hummed, and they went back to the inner courtyard, drank a few sips of water, and went to plant lotus roots.

Zhuifeng Wenya and Shi'an went down to the pond, first scooped up the dead branches in the pond, and then started to plant lotus root next to each other. It didn't require too much skill, the lotus seeds were inserted into the mud and it was done.

Qingyu and Hongtao played on their stomachs on the beam bridge.Hongtao asked: "Junior Sister Head, what are your plans for tomorrow? If not, I plan to run around here tomorrow to find out the way."

"It's nothing, you are busy with your work." Qing Yu said.Hongtao talked to her about the Liu family.

The three busy people in the pool were also chatting about buying land.

"It's hard to find [-] mu of Hezi land, you have to wait for two days."

Shi'an said: "Speaking of it, it's better to get closer. If they are too scattered, it will be troublesome."

Zhuifeng nodded, "Yes. Let's see if old Liutou can find us a good place. If he is too perfunctory, I will ask another Zhuangya. But old Liutou looks pretty good. , and wait for two days to see."

Wen Ya washed the mud off her hands with a little silt water, "The normal price of Hezi land is at least one or two acres, but now that the price is being reduced, it can definitely be cheaper. Does old Liu have any reminders, how much is appropriate?"

Chasing the wind shook his head: "I didn't say anything, I guess it's not easy for him to open his mouth. Compared to us, he must care about his acquaintances. We just came here, so how can he think from our point of view."

"That's true." Wen Ya finished washing her hands, wiped her sweat with her sleeves, and shouted at Heart: "Throw the water bag here."

Hearts were fighting vigorously with Qingyu, upon hearing this, they grabbed the water bag on the ground and swung it, "Go on."

Wen Ya caught it and asked Shi An: "Drink water?"

Shi An shook his head.She just took a few swigs of the water bag and handed it to Zhuifeng, "Do you want to drink?"

Zhufeng straightened up with an ouch, twisted his sore waist a few times, washed his hands, took the water bag, took a few sips, and put the water bag on the nearby shore.

Qing Yu patted the mosquitoes buzzing around her legs, she was delighted to hear Hong Tao's talk, and seeing that the sky was about to turn, she said, "Senior Sister, let's make dinner."

"What?" Heart asked.

Qingyu thought about it, but she didn't know what to eat, so she asked the others, "What do you want to eat?"

"Whatever." Wen Ya said, and bent down to plant lotus root again.

Considering the culinary skills of the two, Zhuifeng said: "Let's stew vegetables, I have harvested today, stewed pork ribs is not bad. What do you think?"

Both Wen Ya and Shi'an nodded, and Qing Yu pulled Hong Tao to get up, "Then let's cook." He headed towards the kitchen.

Zhufeng bent down again and continued to work, while sighing: "Speaking of it, the master sister has a vision. I thought before I came to Yinzhou, I would still do my old job, just like I did in Chengyang County."

"Well, it's true that it is more suitable to buy land now. Whoever lowers the price, we can always get a lot cheaper." Wen Ya said.

"Then how much can I buy now?" Shi'an recalled what Qingyu said earlier about needing money urgently.

"Probably not. With the cautious temperament of the head sister, she will definitely worry about being suppressed by the He family. It is estimated that [-] mu is about the same."

"Then what are we using so many lands for?" Wen Ya asked.

Both Zhufeng and Shi'an smiled, and Zhufeng said: "Then we have to ask our head."

After a pool of lotus roots had been planted, it was already dark and the meal was ready. While the three of them were washing, Qingyu and Hongtao brought the meal to the table.

A pot of pork ribs stewed with kelp, even with only salt added, still has a strong aroma. Adding a bowl of white rice, it is already very delicious for five people.

At the dinner table, before the four of them could ask questions, Qing Yu took the lead and said, "I know you want to ask, what is the purpose of buying the land for?"

All four looked at her.In the past, when the junior sisters in charge made decisions, they never liked to explain too much. It was often when the matter came to an end that they understood the deep meaning.

Because of this, the four of them are habitually trusting, and unless they are very confused, they don't bother to ask more at other times.

"If we want to gain a firm foothold in Yinzhou, we must spread everything out in the long run. Our personal energy is too limited."

 Thank you for the rewards, I am really touched, thank you for your support, I will continue to work hard~
