Chapter 22
"Fortunately, it's over, it's getting hotter and hotter today."

"Yeah, it's the end of spring, don't talk about working at noon, even if you move too much, you will be sweating."

The village chief and his men finally finished digging the trap in the back mountain. He looked up at the big sun in the sky and said to Mu Yunhe beside him: "Your land must be planted quickly, otherwise the harvest will be affected if it is too late."

Mu Yunhe said cheerfully, "Don't worry, the village elder. My sister-in-law is raising seedlings at home. She said that even if it's two days late, I won't be afraid."

"Village Chief, look, those two deer are here again!"

Hearing Brother Wang's voice, everyone turned their heads in unison.

Mu Yunhe turned around and ran towards Xiaolu, "Xiaolu, you're here! Did you come early because you knew we were finishing work today? Come, I'll help you change your medicine."

The village chief and the others also stopped walking towards home, looking at the two deer with some reluctance to say goodbye.

The village head pointed to the female deer that was crawling at the foot of Muyun River and kept nodding to him, and said, "Look, what a beautiful deer, it knows how to be grateful, and it is thanking Mu Lao Er!"

After changing the deer's medicine, Mu Yunhe looked at the deer's wet eyes and asked, "Don't tell me you are leaving?"

The village chief and everyone gathered around after hearing the words.

"Are you really going to leave?"

"It's a shame."

"Remember to come back often!"

Everyone said goodbye in a hurry.

Mu Yunhe hugged Xiaolu's neck and tears were about to flow down, "I will miss you."

Mingyue saw that the deer was recovering well, so she handed over the job of changing the deer's dressing to Mu Yunhe. He and the deer had become friends in the past two days, and he did more meticulously in changing the deer's dressing than Mingyue.

Since Xiaolu got better, he came here every day to watch the men in the village dig trenches.The doe was also willing to take it with her to interact more with the people of Wangjia Village, and she personally caught a lot of rabbits for the village head and Mu Yunhe.After two days of getting along, they have become very familiar with the villagers.

Mu Yunhe returned home listlessly, and told Mingyue, "Sister-in-law, there should be no need to change the medicine for the deer's injury. The doe seems to mean that she is going to take the deer back to the mountains. I really don't want to part with them." of."

"Well, you have done well these two days. I will give you an extra meal tonight. Don't be reluctant. We will meet again if we are destined. Have a good rest for the night and go to farm with me tomorrow."

"Sister-in-law, have your seeds really germinated?"

When mentioning farming, Mu Yunhe's attention was immediately diverted. He didn't believe it at all. He thought that what the third brother said was exaggerated, so he went to the back mountain to dig a trap for two days. Why did the family have new life? !

Mingyue let the two younger uncles into the East Wing, "I will show you my results."

Seeing her two sons coming in, Mrs. Mu hurriedly said: "Look, don't do anything! If you damage the fruits of your sister-in-law's labor, I will not spare you. Especially these vegetable seedlings, don't think that the seeds are given by the villagers and you will not cherish them." , if you owe someone a favor, you have to pay it back.”

Mingyue smiled and pointed to the seedlings cultivated in bamboo baskets on the kang and two bags of seeds, and introduced them, "The ones over there are watermelons and melons, the ones over there are eggplants and peppers, and the ones here are beans. These are all seedlings. The wheat and corn seeds in the sacks have sprouted and will be sown in the fields tomorrow."

Mingyue only gave the two brothers a look at the small sprouts of the corn seeds, and then carefully covered the bag again.

The two brothers went to the side to study the green vegetable seedlings emerging from the soil in the bamboo basket.

Old lady Mu smiled and said, "You don't even know it, do you? When the time comes, I will go to the field with your sister-in-law to plant seedlings, and let your sister-in-law teach you well."

Mingyue patted Mu Yunhe on the shoulder, "Yunhe, I have something for you."

"Sister-in-law order!" Mu Yunhe turned around with a playful smile, as if obeying orders.

"Wait a while for me, go to Wanfu Temple and tell Master Miaoyuan that I want to see his distinguished guest, and see if I can trouble him to bring someone to our house. I really can't leave now, and I can't personally Go to Wanfu Temple to pay a visit, don’t wait until I have time before I leave. You just say that I made vegetarian food for them, and ask them to show their respect. By the way, you can send the antlers from last time to Master Miaoyuan. We sold them earlier The mountain goods I gave him were not worth 100 taels at all. He was at a loss, but at that time I was eager to pay back the money from the folks and took it. There are several big favors, you tell him, I will make him a vegetarian meal for a month, and then send fungus and yams enough for a month to Wanfu Temple, and I will add 30 taels of sesame oil to Wanfu Temple after the Chinese New Year this year. Thank you to him."

The reason why Mingyue decided to invite people to her home was that she analyzed the information that Xiaomeng had received in the past few days and knew that the two people had an unusual relationship with the original owner's mother. As long as she sent an invitation, they would definitely come. She has her own plan, she can't just stay at home and do nothing, she has to be proactive.

Mu Yunhe looked at Mingyue hesitantly, "Sister-in-law, do you really want to say that? Everything else is fine, can you earn 30 taels of sesame oil money this year?"

Mingyue didn't tell him that he made a lot of money by selling Mu Yunlian's things that day, and Muyunhe didn't care how much money was in the purse handed to Mingyue by Brother Wang at that time, Mingyue felt that the two brothers Muyunhe couldn't know Making money can be so easy. After all, that kind of method is not the right way, and it can't teach children badly. She snorted softly, "Don't underestimate me. You start now, go back early."

Mrs. Mu added: "Second brother, bring him directly to our house. If it is convenient for Master Miaoyuan, please invite him to stay for a few days. When I recover, when your brother wakes up, let's go and thank him. Third, you Go with your sister-in-law to tidy up the house and free up your room to entertain guests."

Mingyue nodded slightly, "Well, it's still my mother's thoughtfulness. Oh boy, you and I went to the river to catch two fish and come back, plus the pork ribs and two pheasants at home should barely be able to entertain them. How can that distinguished guest be?" I am not a vegetarian, after catching fish, I will cook, and you will clean up the house."

Mingyue asked Xiaomeng, "Do you think General Luo likes steamed buns or rice noodles?"

Xiaomeng checked the newly updated database, and then said: "Master, bake the shortbread. The shortbread you make is guaranteed to be unavailable outside. The most important thing to invite someone like General Luo to dinner is to see how you feel. Didn't your mother-in-law ask you to invite someone to stay for a few more days, so you can cook different staple foods every day."

At this time, the old lady Mu stuck her head out of the window and told Mingyue who was walking to the door: "Mingyue, didn't you ask your elder brother Wang to buy you pig offal from the town? Both the second and third children like the set of dishes given by the village chief’s family. The distinguished guest is a man, so he will definitely like it. By the way, put a little more chili. People here like spicy food, and fish don’t After braised and steamed, I will make fish ball tofu soup, and the two chickens will be made into spicy chicken. I remember that you made a can of spicy cabbage two days ago, then serve a plate of spicy cabbage, and then mix with a fungus to make a Stewed bamboo shoots in oil is almost the same. The staple food is to make shortbread. Remember to use rapeseed oil, so that there are meat and vegetables, and you can also take into account Master Miaoyuan. Your craftsmanship is not available outside. The main thing to treat is Mind."

Mingyue smiled and turned her head back, "Okay, mother, don't worry, when I'm done, I'll ask Xiaotian to bring you a copy first, then you can eat first, Yunkai will wait for me when I come back, and take care of his attention." There are many things, some of the medicines he is using are incompatible with some food, don't be self-defeating."

Xiaomeng said to Mingyue who walked out of the yard: "Master, don't think that Master Miaoyuan is a vegetarian, and he is not a vegetarian either. When he and General Luo were together, they always drank wine and ate meat, so they squatted Master Miaoyuan’s yard is not going out, and they are not talking about Buddhist scriptures, they are talking about important national affairs, as well as the military deployment of the border. Your mother-in-law’s suggestion is good. A nephew of General Luo runs a restaurant in the town. If he Have fun eating, you might even earn a small fortune by selling cooking recipes! You don’t want to take the risk of doing food business, but someone must ask for your cooking methods, especially General Luo For a restaurant owner like my nephew who has a background that no one dares to mess with, his business is very good, but the most worrying thing is that there are no fresh dishes."

Mingyue really wanted to give Xiaomeng a hug, "Xiaomeng, you still understand me. You told me about General Luo's nephew that day, so I really have such a purpose in inviting General Luo this time. Anyway, he’s fine squatting in Wanfu Temple, why don’t you come to my house and do something meaningful, lest he waste time and life.”

"By the way, Xiaomeng, didn't you say that General Luo came here this time with the task of purchasing military rations. What they worry about most when they are stationed at the border is food. Help me sort out a recipe for making dried noodles and instant noodles And the recipe for making hot pot base, and the recipe for making big vat of sauerkraut. I will copy a copy and send it to him when I come back. The days in the military camp are the saddest when the spring is not ready. I don’t dare to transport too much food at a time, because I’m afraid it won’t be finished and it won’t be stored well and it will be wasted, but it’s too troublesome to buy it all the time. Their military camp is not as convenient as our life in guarding the land. I believe he will need these recipes. Oh, by the way, I’ll sort out the recipes for Malatang, Chuanchuanxiang and Luzhu respectively, and I’m going to discuss business with them.”

She turned her head and threw Xiaomeng aside, and shouted to Mu Yuntian: "Xiaotian, hurry up, try the fish basket and net I made yesterday, and see if I can catch more fish. Don't you like to eat squirrel fish? My sister-in-law will make one for you today, so that you can eat enough, your second brother likes sweet and sour pork ribs, I will make him a special ribs, to ensure that he has no time to grab your fish."
