After wearing a book, the cannon fodder ex-wife just wants to farm

Chapter 66 Back to the Countryside

Shen Muyin's mood suddenly wasn't that bad, maybe it was a timely rain.

Back home, Shen Muyin changed his clothes under Shen Qingrou's urging, and when he came out, there was a big bowl of steaming ginger water waiting for him.

Seeing Shen Muyin's bitter face, Li Erya suddenly gloated a little.

Seeing her smiling undisguisedly, Shen Muyin suddenly gained courage, waited for a while, and drank a large bowl of ginger water in one go.

But he was thinking about Shen Muci's matter, and took the initiative to discuss the county examination questions with him, and without a trace, he drew out the questions that might be taken in the next government examination.

He won't be so despicable as to copy someone else's article that won the top spot. The two of them also have considerable strength, and it will be enough to compete with each other at that time. So many.

Shen Muci was amazed by his younger brother's strength, and suddenly felt that he was not wronged at all for only getting the second place. After all, there were mountains beyond mountains, and there were people beyond people. He became more humble and felt ashamed to ask questions.

The unexpected harvest made Shen Muyin decide to hide that secret for the rest of his life.

When Shi He was found according to the address in the letter, Shen Muyin, Li Erya, and Shen Qingrou all felt that Shi He was quite suitable, but Shen Muci still took Shi He back to the countryside to show his parents. The matter was settled, and he had to set off for the state capital.

Shen Nanzhou and Mrs. Shen were not very satisfied with Shi He, mainly because they felt that he was three years older than Shen Muci, but they couldn't object to their son's falling in love with him, so they made a decision.

After Shen Muci left Taichuan County, Shen Muyin had the idea of ​​going back to the countryside, hoping to stay away from the Hu family.

Mrs. Hu didn't mention her sister's marriage again, maybe one day she would think about it again, Hu Shaojing looked indifferent again, he didn't want Hu Shaojing to have a chance to get close to his sister.

He also watched Li Erya closely. It is okay for her to go to Huichuntang to study and help, but he is 1 unwilling to go to Jixianglou, so he tried his best to stop it.

Li Erya saw that he was dissatisfied with the Hu family, so she politely declined Hu Shaojing's invitation. The two dishes of stewed meat and grilled fish were enough to make Jixianglou famous for a while, and she didn't want to sell any new recipes for the time being.

Moreover, Jixianglou is also researching new dishes, so she can't steal Fang Yu's limelight.

Shen Muyin was both happy and a little guilty for her obedience, but thinking of Hu Shaojing's character, it might not be a bad thing for her to stay away from such a person.

But before he could speak, Mrs. Shen and Shen Nanzhou came to take them back to the countryside.

The house in the city was originally prepared for Shen Muci, but now he went to the state capital and didn't come back so soon, the three of them lived in the house in the city, and both of them felt that it was not suitable.

Li Erya had just gotten used to life in the city, and she suddenly had to go back to the countryside. For a while, she tended to live in the city, because in the city she could follow Su Yue to learn how to identify medicinal materials, and make medicines.

She has been allowed to help at the medicine cabinet, and she can also make mint ointment at Huichuntang, but now she is going back to the countryside. After all, she can't decide on this matter, so she can only say goodbye to Su Yue and the others.

The house is only a short-term lease. They terminated the lease ahead of schedule, and the rent was still paid according to the lease. Naturally, the owner would not be embarrassed and returned the deposit readily.

Back in the countryside, as soon as Li Erya saw the distiller she had almost forgotten, all her unaccustomed habits disappeared, and she immediately thought about Fengyoujing.

She bought some of the medicinal materials she needed in Huichuntang, and after she just came back, she plunged into the mountains again, which really allowed her to find the last medicinal herb.

Although all the necessary medicinal materials are ready, the equipment in hand is too crude and primitive, so she can only try to make it step by step.

The procedure of Fengyoujing is much more complicated than that of mint paste. Distillation needs to be carried out in two steps, and chlorophyll needs to be extracted by oneself. The only regret is that crystal or glass are extremely rare in ancient times, so she can only use porcelain bottles instead.

The first time the Fengyou Jing was made, it was not as good, and the second time it tasted a bit lacking, but she also figured out how to use the distiller, and the third time it was finally successful.

Li Erya came out of the kitchen with two small bottles of Fengyoujing. The first thing she did was to discuss with Shen Nanzhou. She wanted to go to the city to find Su Yue to sell Fengyoujing on behalf of her to test the market reaction.

One more thing, the donkey at home should also be replaced. She still has more than 30 taels of silver in her hand, not including the three taels of silver for selling ginseng.

She planned to keep the three taels of silver, unless it was at the end of the day, because the three taels of silver was her confidence and luck.

If she wanted to change to an ox cart, she would only need a dozen pieces of silver, but since the family didn't need arable land, it would be a waste to buy an ox cart. She wanted to buy a horse cart in one go.

Mrs. Shen only had about 15 taels of money left, because most of the money was spent on Shen Muci. Hearing Li Erya's plan, she was about to scold her, but she thought that it was impossible for her not to know the situation at home. He tentatively asked her if she planned to pay for it herself.

"I still have 32 three taels in my hand. It may be enough to buy a carriage, but I can only buy ordinary carriages." Li Erya said frankly.

"It's just normal, we're not a big family now, why buy such an expensive carriage." Mrs. Shen said hastily.

Shen Nanzhou glanced at her and knew that what she said was right, but he still asked her to take some money out, Li Erya couldn't let Li Erya pay all the money for the carriage.

"I still have some money in my hand, I think I can pay half of it." Seeing his mother was about to speak, Shen Muyin said beforehand.

Mrs. Shen was saddened to find that she was the poorest in the family. Although she still had 15 taels of silver in her hand, which seemed a lot, but the money was basically for them to buy books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and she was just in charge of it.

When Shen Qingrou heard that she was going to buy a carriage, she wished she could follow her into the city. No one in the surrounding ten miles or eight villages had a carriage.

But with the old donkey at home, Shen Muyin was determined to follow into the city, and Li Erya also had important matters to enter the city, and Madam Shen stopped her, so she couldn't follow into the city.

After entering the city, Li Erya went to Huichun Hall alone, and Shen Muyin followed Shen Nanzhou to the bookstore without looking back. After going to the bookstore, they still had to visit County Magistrate Sun.

Li Erya couldn't help wondering why he didn't seem to be calling with Su Ling. Maybe it was because the two of them were still young, but when they were together, they still talked and laughed like childhood sweethearts.

When the relationship between the two begins, maybe everything will come to fruition.

When the time comes, she will have to get out in time. After comforting herself, Li Erya walked into the Hall of Rejuvenation with relaxed steps. Seeing Su Ling running towards her, the smile on her face became brighter and brighter.

"Is there any happy event for sister?" Su Ling asked with a smile.
