The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 138 Granny Pear Catching Ghosts (1)
The eldest wife is looked down upon in the countryside, and the old lady Li is afraid that Leng Ping will be criticized by others.

Hao Shi became nervous again, and quickly looked at Leng Ping.

"Grandma, I told my uncle before that I want to stay here now. As for the marriage with Hao Ren, we will talk about it later!" Leng Ping said.

Li Jiu also stepped forward and said: "Yes, mother, I told you that you would never believe me. Now that you have heard Ping'er say it with your own ears, don't you feel at ease? This marriage is favored by my sister and brother-in-law, and now Ping'er is willing , although you love her dearly, you can't force her to tear it down, can you?"

Mrs. Li is just like Li Jiu, with a fiery temper. When Li Jiu said this, she immediately became unhappy. She slapped Li Jiu on the back and shouted loudly: "When will I break up this matter?" It's a marriage, my own granddaughter, I raise it myself, what's the matter, you don't want to be an uncle?"

Li Jiu quickly shrank her neck, not daring to speak out anymore.

Although Hao Shi was anxious, she was also afraid of Granny Li's hot temper, so she didn't dare to speak.

Leng Ping stepped forward and pulled Granny Li's hand and said, "Grandma, it's really none of Uncle's business. I want to stay here. Grandma, you don't have to worry about me. Mother and Hao Ren are very good to me. , I live here very well!"

The Hao family was the first home she lived in in ancient times, and the house has not been built yet, how could she leave?

Mrs. Li was about to say something when she saw Yang Tong come in suddenly, bowed to Leng Ping and said, "Miss Leng, please save my son, Miss Leng, please do me a favor!"

All of a sudden, Yang Tong stunned the whole room.

"I didn't recognize Miss Leng, and almost delayed the child's illness, please ask Miss Leng to come with me, and I will pay you the consultation fee!" Yang Tong begged again in a low voice.

Leng Ping hesitated for a moment, and after thinking about it, she said, "Go back first, mix white wine with warm water for the child, rub the child's whole body to cool down, and let him drink more plain water. Now I don't have any medicine here. I will prepare it in the afternoon. Good medicine chest, go to your place!"

Yang Tong hurriedly responded, he didn't even care about the money, so he hurried home first, and according to what Leng Ping said, cool down the child.

The old lady Li was surprised at this moment: "Ping, do you really know how to see a doctor?"

Li Jiu hurriedly said: "Mother, look, I said you didn't believe it, but now you believe it?"

Granny Li looked Leng Ping up and down again, frowning slightly.

For some reason, Leng Ping was a little afraid of Mrs. Li's scrutinizing gaze, which seemed to see through her, so she immediately smiled vaguely and said, "Grandma, you came all the way, the weather is so hot , It’s really hard work, just wait, I’ll cook for you, and it’s not too late to go back after eating and resting!”

Leng Ping got up and left the main room.

Hao Shi also said to help, Shi Shi and Hua'er naturally followed, and only Mrs. Li and Li Jiu were left in the main room.

Granny Pear's frown became tighter and tighter.

"Jiu'er, you are telling me carefully how you saw Ping'er!" Mrs. Li said suddenly.

Li Jiu was taken aback, and asked, "What's the matter, mother?"

Old Madam Li frowned, "Ping'er seems to be inappropriate!"

Li Jiu was taken aback, remembering that Mrs. Li was a great dancer before, she quickly smiled and said, "Didn't mother hear someone talking nonsense? Last time I came here, I also heard people say that Ping'er is a ghost, and she will Seeing sickness, why is it so mysterious, later I heard from Hao Renniang that it was Pinger who was taught by Dr. Liu who was treating patients in Liushu Village!"

Old lady Li shook her head and said, "Studying medicine can't be accomplished in a day or two. In such a short period of time, Ping'er can become a teacher? It's absolutely impossible! I see something strange in it!"

When Li Jiu heard this, she also felt a little unbelievable, but she still said, "Mother can see Ping'er's appearance better than anyone else. Although I haven't seen her for a year, her appearance has basically remained the same!"

The old lady Li frowned. When she was young, she traveled all over the rivers and lakes. She had never seen any strange things. She was sure that there was something weird about Leng Ping!

At the moment in the dining shed, Leng Ping first cuts half of the meat that will be used tomorrow to feed Li Jiu and Mrs. Li, and the rest is usually put in a basket with some vegetables and hung into the well together go.

"Mom, do you still have sweet potato powder?" Leng Ping saw that the old lady Li seemed to be very stuffy, so she planned to make some sweet potato jelly for her.

"Your grandma finally came here. How can you eat sweet potato flour? Let's eat it with white flour pancakes!" Hao Shi said, untiing a bag of white flour just ground in the morning.

"Mom, I cook with sweet potato flour, you just go to pancakes, don't worry about me!" Leng Ping said.

When Leng Ping was not at home, the frying pan customized by blacksmith Li had already been taken back, and it was made into a large pot, so that when the fire was lit, two pots could be burned at once. Now one is used for pancakes, and the other is used for cooking. No delay.

As soon as Hao Shi heard this, she knew that Leng Ping had an idea, so she nodded immediately, and went to knead the noodles first, preparing to bake the scallion pancakes.

Leng Ping poured the sweet potato flour into the wooden basin, kneaded the dough first, then kneaded and washed it in water, steamed the gluten in the pan, fried the gluten for a while, and put the remaining water starch into the pot to let Hao Dan quickly turned on the fire, and kept stirring with a spoon while heating the pot until the starch paste became transparent, then poured it out and poured it into a small wooden basin.

"Hao Dan, hang this in the well too, and take it out later!" Leng Ping ordered, remembering the chili peppers she bought today, and frying them in a hot pan until red oil comes out, ready for a while Mix with jelly.

The old lady Li came out of the main room at some point, and stood at the door of the kitchen, watching Leng Ping's skillful work, her brows furrowed more and more.

The food was served, chopped scallion pancakes, jelly jelly to cool off the heat, bean stew, and secret braised pork, bean sprout soup. Although there were only three dishes and one soup, it was already a rare big meal in this countryside.

"Grandma, try Ping'er's handicrafts. This dish is made by her. It tastes very good!" Hao Shi put the big pot of braised pork in front of Granny Li.

The old lady Li nodded, took a sip, raised her eyes and asked, "Ping'er, you did all this?"

Leng Ping nodded, "How is it? Does it taste good?"

But the old lady Li asked: "When did you learn to cook? Before, didn't you hate the smell of oily smoke the most? You said you were afraid it would ruin your clothes!"

Hao Shi was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.

What Mrs. Li said, is she blaming the Hao family for letting Leng Ping do the work?

Li Jiu also felt that Mrs. Li's words were harsh, so she hurriedly said: "Mother, why are you confused, now that my sister and brother-in-law are gone, Ping'er will naturally learn to grow up, how can she be as self-willed as before!"

"Really?" Mrs. Li asked suspiciously, but nodded again, "That's right, she made Ping'er feel wronged!"
