The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 359 Returning with Honor (3)
Now that Mrs. Zhou came in person, Hao quickly stepped forward and saluted the old lady. How could the old lady dare to accept it, so she quickly stopped her and said some more words, which became more and more close.

Mrs. Zhou sat for a while and then left. Before leaving, she said to Leng Ping: "These days, I asked people to clean up the house briefly, and the furniture was almost mended. I was thinking of you. You can live there!"

When Leng Ping heard this, she felt even more grateful, and took the peaches to send Mrs. Zhou back to Leng's Village, and stopped by to see the house.

The house has indeed been repaired, and all the damaged things inside have been repaired. Mrs. Zhou also gave Leng Ping a few beds, saying that they were not used by the family before, so Leng Ping should not be disgusted.

Leng Ping was a little moved, and held Mrs. Zhou's hand tightly, unable to speak.

Mrs. Zhou patted her hand.

The old house was basically ready for people to live in, so Leng Ping discussed with Hao Ren and asked Sun Hanzhi to live in the old house with the other three people. Taozi would take care of three meals a day, and Hao Dan would send them over.

Hao Ren also agreed.

After a busy day, everyone finally settled down. In the evening, the whole family could get together and have a quiet dinner.

We ate stewed meat at noon, and everyone wanted something light. Leng Ping made a stir-fried shredded potato, tofu mixed with shallots, took two plates of pickles, dipped shallots in sauce, and made salty peanut soup.

Although the simple dishes are just a few simple dishes, the whole family eats them with gusto.

Hao Ren glanced at Hua'er, he won the first prize, and before leaving, Li Yanzhen told him about Hua'er's loss. At that time, he felt angry and wanted to blame Li Yanzhen, but he also knew that Li Yanzhen was doing it for his own good.

He asked in a low voice: "Hua'er, are you really okay? Is your throat healed?"

Hua'er nodded with a smile on her face.

Hao Ren said to Hao Shi: "Mother, why do I feel that Hua'er is not as lively as before?"

In the past, Hua'er would have circled around him and quarreled with him, but today, Hua'er just sat quietly.

Hua'er ate Leng Ping's lily flower perilla soup.

In order to prescribe this medicine for Hua'er, Leng Ping even took Hua'er to Washington.

There is a big courtyard in Washington, and it is the spring season, and the flowers are blooming very brightly.

Leng Ping took Hua'er to see Baihua and Zisu, and told her that lily blooms in the morning and reunites in the evening, and Zisu hangs in the evening, and that the lily and perilla soup has the effect of sleeping.

Looking at the beautiful flowers, Hua'er was in a good mood, so she was willing to believe that after eating the soup, she really didn't have nightmares at night, but her lively temperament changed a lot.

Hao Shi also told Leng Ping secretly before, and Leng Ping said that it was because the flowers had grown up and became more stable, so Hao Shi believed it.

Now that Hao Ren asked again, Hao patted Hua'er's head and said, "Hua'er has grown up, big girl, can she still be as rambunctious as she was when she was a child?"

Hao Ren nodded and didn't go any further.

Shitou is much more cheerful than when he was a child, especially when Mr. Wen slowly started to praise him recently, he has gradually become more confident, but he is not as arrogant as before.

Hao Dan is also becoming more and more stable. Recently, he is studying the reclining chair with Carpenter Han. Many friends of Mr. Yan like the reclining chair. Mr. Yan also told Hao Dan when he was borrowing books. Hao Dan Egg is preparing to discuss mass production with Carpenter Han.

Leng Ping has been taking Huang Lian to work on the traditional Chinese medicine. Now that Atractylodes macrocephala has reached the sowing period and needs a lot of fertilizer, Leng Ping is trying to fertilize it.

Hao Ren listened and ate with a very quiet expression.

"Brother, will you enter the Imperial Academy if you win the first prize?" asked the stone chicken thief.

The news about Hao Renzhong's No. [-] Scholar has long been spread in the academy, and everyone is envious.When he came back, Master Wen gave a special class to everyone, talking about the Imperial Academy. In the words of Master Wen, the Imperial Academy is the place that scholars yearn for the most. Master Wen described the Imperial Academy as beautiful and greedy. The stones are drooling.

Shitou also wants to be a Jinshi in the future, and enter the Hanlin Academy!

"Yes, the position has been arranged. Seventh-rank editor, start from the bottom!" Hao Ren smiled, but still looked at Hao shi worriedly.

Hao Shi has not stated his position, and he does not know what he is thinking.

"Shitou, let's eat, drink the soup quickly, your elder brother is tired after a long day of work, don't pester your elder brother for a while, let your elder brother rest early!" Sure enough, when Hao heard the three words of Imperial Academy, The smile on his face was a little stiff, he put some pickles on the stone, and said in a low voice.

Stone responded quickly.

Hao Ren sighed inwardly.

He must know why!

After dinner, Hao got up and told Tao Zi: "Tao Zi, you wash the dishes today, I want to learn from Liang's family, I have something to do!"

Tao Zi responded quickly.

Hao went into the house to add some clothes, gave some instructions, and went out with the oil lamp.

Yu Xueliang's house was in the village, not far away, so everyone didn't take it seriously. Now that Hao Shi was gone, Shitou took the opportunity to pester Hao Ren about the palace examination, Haodan and Hua My son is also listening.

Leng Ping and Tao Zi cleaned up the dishes.

In the kitchen, Tao Zi seemed to hesitate to speak.

"What's wrong?" Leng Ping glanced at her.

"Miss, did you think the old lady was showing off just now? That's right, now that my son-in-law is the champion, the old lady wants to put on airs, it's okay, I can do the family affairs myself in the future!" Tao Zi whispered.

It turned out that Taozi thought that Hao Shi was showing off, so she said she would not do the dishes, but went to visit.

"What is being put on airs? Mother is an elder. You are not allowed to talk like that in the future. You are too busy with the affairs of this family. When I have more money, I will buy another maid to come in!" Leng Ping didn't want Taozi to disrespect Hao's family. , and reprimanded displeasedly.

Tao Zi quickly responded, and immediately said: "I'll go to the old house to collect the dishes!"

"It's getting dark, let Hao Dan go, you're a little girl, don't run around!" Leng Ping said.

Only now did Taozi have a smile on her face, and she said coquettishly next to Leng Ping: "Miss, I thought you didn't like Taozi anymore. In the past, Miss would take Taozi with her wherever she went, but now she ignores me." !"

Leng Ping was taken aback, she was just not used to being served by her side, and once she left, she was also worried that Hao Shi would not be able to do it alone, and Tao Zi could help.

"How can I not like you, but now I don't have enough money left, so I have an extra mouth to eat when there are many people on the road. After all, we still have to find ways to make money!"

Tao Zi immediately said: "Miss, now my uncle is the number one scholar, and he is going to the Imperial Academy again. He will have a salary in the future, so I don't need to work so hard! Tao Zi just hopes that when the young lady goes to Tiancheng with my uncle, she will take Tao Zi with her!"
