The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 349
No matter how noisy Pan Lianhua was, Liu Gui hid in the corner and gnawed on the chicken's head.

He never knew that chicken heads could be so delicious!
The next day, the twenty short-term laborers hired by Leng Ping, plus three long-term laborers including Cao Dabi, went to the field to stand by.

Angelica dahurica needs to be sown first, with drills, with a row spacing of one foot, and a shallow trench with a depth of one to two inches, sow the seeds evenly into the trench, and then cover with soil.

For Atractylodes macrocephala, grass ash had to be burned for disinfection. Leng Ping divided the people into two groups, one with Coptis chinensis and one with Cao Big Nose, and they were planted separately.

Everyone in the village envied Leng Ping's job. Those who failed to grab the opportunity regretted it all the time, so everyone cherished this opportunity very much and put their heart into it. In a day's work, almost two acres of Baizhi were sown. , Burned the ashes of five acres of land.

Leng Ping's work was in full swing, but Hao Shi still couldn't help worrying, and brought some hot water to the big guys during the interval, and the days passed day by day.

About ten days later, almost all of Leng Ping's [-] mu of land had been planted, and it was the end of February, and there were still more than ten days before the Spring Festival, but Hao Ren was still nowhere to be seen.

"No, Ping'er, hurry up and go to Tiancheng to have a look, don't let anything happen to you!" Hao firmly believed that Hao Ren is not the kind of person who ignores his family members for the sake of fame. If he knows about Hua'er, he will definitely come back. , If you haven't come back now, something must have happened!
Leng Ping was also a little worried. It stands to reason that Hao Ren should come back, unless he didn't know about Hua'er's disappearance!
But Leng Ping is now in a bit of a dilemma. She left the Liu family without saying a word, and has been busy since she came back. The letter of apology to the old lady has not been written yet. If she goes back, then the old lady Liu...

Leng Ping was hesitating when she heard someone knock on the courtyard door, and Liu Laifu's voice sounded outside, "Miss Leng, Miss Hang, I am your Uncle Liu, open the door!"

When Hao heard that it was Liu Laifu who took away Leng Ping and Hao Ren back then, she regained her spirits and hurried to open the door with Leng Ping.

Liu Laifu and Si Leng of the Li Mansion stood outside with people.

When Hao Shi opened the door and saw so many people, she was stunned for a moment, but she didn't see Hao Ren, her heart sank even more, and she hurriedly asked, "Butler Liu, why did you bring so many people here? Is it because something happened to my Ren'er? "

Liu Laifu quickly explained: "Mr. Hao is fine, and now he is studying in Mr. Li's mansion to take the exam. Mr. Li heard that something happened at Mr. Hao's house, so he sent Steward Li and the people in the mansion to take a look and see what's going on. It's very helpful, and our old lady is worried about Miss Leng, so let me take a look!"

It was only then that Hao Shi realized that it was a good thing that Hao Ren was valued by adults, but...

Leng Ping quickly said: "Steward Liu, Steward Li, and all the brothers have worked hard. I'm really sorry for everyone. My family's affairs have been resolved and the flowers have been found. Thank you for your hard work. Come in and have a cup of tea first. I'm sorry." Make delicious food for everyone!"

When Old Man Liu and Li Sileng heard that the matter of the Hao family had been settled, they didn't even enter the house, so they said: "Since the matter is settled, let's go back, the two masters are still waiting for news!"

Leng Ping hurriedly persuaded her to stay.

Li Sileng recalled Li Yanzhen's entrustment, and saluted Mrs. Hao again: "Mrs. Hao, when we arrived, our lord gave orders to reassure Mrs. Hao that Mr. Hao is doing well in our house. Mrs. Li I appreciate Mr. Hao very much, this time, as long as Mr. Hao plays well, Mr. Hao will definitely get a ranking, Mrs. Hao just wait to hear the good news!"

The others must have been very happy when they heard this, but now Hao Shi felt dizzy after hearing this, she resisted it, with a smile on her face, and said that she wanted to invite someone in for tea, but she turned around. Sometimes it wobbles.

Leng Ping hurried forward to support her.

Hao Shi waved his hand and said that he was fine.

"Mother, you are not in good shape yet, you can't stand for too long, you go into the room first!" Leng Ping quickly called Tao Zi, and asked Tao Zi to help Hao Shi in first.

After Mrs. Hao left, Leng Ping explained to them embarrassingly: "The old lady misses her son, and what happened at home a few days ago, her health has been bad!"

Everyone expressed their understanding and said goodbye by the way.

Several people came all the way from Tiancheng, and they rushed back without even drinking their saliva. Leng Ping absolutely refused, so she reasoned that she had a letter for Liu Laifu to bring back to Mrs. Liu, so she invited her. Several people came in and sat down.

Liu Laifu and Li Sileng came from the village with their people. The two big carriages and the mighty two-car people naturally attracted many people's attention, and they all said that the Hao family had come to be a nobleman from Tiancheng.

Years ago, Leng Ping went to Tiancheng to see a doctor. This time, a nobleman came to the door, and everyone quickly thought of it. The spread of Leng Ping's miraculous medical skills spread far and wide.

Of course, this is a later story.

Leng Ping entered the house, first brewed the farm's chrysanthemum tea, and then asked Hao Dan to go to the next village to buy meat and prepare meals.

There are not many dishes at home, but the guests who come here these days have seen everything, and they can't compete with the wind, so Leng Ping also wants to cook some unique farm dishes.

There are two pickle jars under the eaves, which are pickled in autumn when radishes, spicy lumps and peppers are harvested.

Leng Ping’s method of pickling pickles is different from the ancient ones. It is a method of pickling pickles, that is, wash the vegetables and put them in a large tank, put a layer of salt on them, and then press stones on top.In this way, no matter how long it takes, it will not go bad, and you can take it out at any time if you want to eat it.

When Hao Dan bought a large piece of pork, Leng Ping planned to use pickled vegetables to make stew for others.

Leng Ping cut the fat and thin pork into small pieces of two centimeters square, and when the frying was almost done, she added water and stewed it, then took out the pickles, radishes and peppers.

As soon as those pickles and peppers were taken out, the sour smell made the mouth water straight out. Leng Ping took them out, washed them, cut them into small pieces, and then put them in the stewed pork and slowly stewed them together.

Liu Laifu and Li Sileng refused at first, refusing to stay for dinner, but smelling the aroma, coupled with the fact that they were really tired and hungry after rushing all the way, they couldn't move anymore.

Taozi also came to help. She pulled spring onions from the vegetable field in front of the house, chopped them finely, scattered them on the rolled white noodles, and ate them with scallion pancakes in a big pot.

When the big plate of stewed meat comes up, there will be delicious scallion pancakes, and fried eggs and shrimp paste made with shrimp paste picked up from the river. Perhaps Liu Laifu and the others have never eaten this kind of food, and they are full of food. sweat.

"It tastes so good!" Liu Laifu couldn't help but said.

He is the big housekeeper in the Liu Mansion, and he has never eaten anything delicious, and this is the first time he has eaten such a delicious stew!

"If you like it, I'll get some sauerkraut and cut it up for you to take with you. Eat it on the road. If you can't eat it on the road, it's delicious to let the family stew it like this!" Leng Ping is nervous now, and she can't prepare anything good. I can only express my gratitude with souvenirs.
