Manor Romance

Chapter 208 Improved Formation
Nervous is nervous, but her craftsmanship is quite good. The first step is to mix the adjusted cream into the chocolate melt, mix to form a coffee-colored thick liquid slurry, and spread them evenly on the surface of the cake with a knife. It's like putting on a beautiful coat, so that the children can't take their eyes off it, and the saliva flowed to the corners of their mouths.

Next is the decoration. Lu Ci has already prepared all the materials. The top layer is paved with gold-rimmed beauties cut in half, followed by cherry tomatoes, green mangos and sweet oranges*** and finally sprinkled on top. Topped with coconut flour for flavor, and then topped with chocolate syrup to write "Happy Birthday to Xiaoya", this fruity chocolate cake is complete.

In addition to being a little flustered at the beginning, the subsequent steps were done smoothly. From Yunli's point of view, this was just making a handicraft. Everyone admired Xu Jiali's craftsmanship, which made Xu Lin who was watching silently on the side feel very relieved.After the cake was finished, Lu Ci put four small candles of different colors on the top layer and lit them. After Xiaoya made a wish and the friends blew them out, he divided the cake for everyone to eat.

There are a lot of cakes, but they were all divided up in a short time. The main reason is that they are too fragrant and delicious. Although everyone has just finished their dinner, they don't want to miss this exquisite cake that can't be bought outside. Even Yunli can't help it After a few extra bites, the taste is always a delight.

After eating the cake, everyone helped pack up their things before leaving one after another. Xiaoya was too full, so Lu Ci took her for a walk around to help her digest, but she fell asleep in Lu Ci's arms before the walk was over. I'm asleep, this little guy is so happy today that he didn't even take a nap. Tonight, he's probably going to sleep and drool at the same time.

Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu enjoy life in the manor very much. The living environment here is much better than in the urban area. Although some material things are not as complete as at home, the fresh and clean air and the picturesque scenery It is enough to make up for any shortcomings. The two lived together for a short time, and their mental outlook has improved significantly compared to before.

Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu are both Mu Yingmu Jun's parents, so Lu Ci also treats them as grandparents, and takes care of the two elders' daily life. Everyone knows Mrs. Gu, Yunli and Lu Ci's relationship. VIPs, they are very warm and caring towards them. There are too many novelty things in the manor that interest them, and they linger in various places every day to enjoy themselves.

The two elders are in good health, and they are eager to help with simple tasks such as harvesting fruits. Elder Gu is very interested in raising fish, shrimp, and bees. Usually, he likes to work with Shen Biao and the others, driving the car with feed to feed the fish Shrimp, or go to the mountains to play and explore, when Yunli is free, he will accompany him to go fishing to pass the time.

Another hobby of Mr. Gu is photography. This hobby has been acquired by him from Gu Ling in recent years. Whether it is the manor or the scenery of the nearby villages, there are too many places for him to take pictures. He lives a wonderful and fulfilling life. .

Mrs. Gu's favorite place to go is the tea garden in the gully of Dalu Mountain. She once longed to have a small tea garden of her own, grow tea, pick tea and make tea by herself, enjoying the most primitive garden fun.

Knowing that she had this wish, Lu Ci specially asked Xu Lin to vacate a space in the tea garden for Mrs. Gu to plant her favorite tea trees. Mrs. Gu was overjoyed, but now there are many kinds of tea trees planted in the tea garden. I am already very satisfied, so I planted all the original tea saplings in this area. If the tea garden can be well managed, it is estimated that young leaves will be picked in the spring of next year to make tea.

Apart from tending the tea garden, Mrs. Gu's favorite place to stay is Jifang Garden. The fragrant garden is indeed a place that makes people linger and forget to return. She also likes to play with Xiaoya. Lu Ci and the others can take care of her when they are busy. Ya also likes this grandma Gu who makes good tea very much. Her grandparents passed away early, and they have never seen her grandparents, so she is very nostalgic for this feeling.

The construction teams of Nanyuan Group have arrived one after another. Except for a small part allocated to the construction of the access to the mountain, the rest are basically arranged for the excavation project of the river around the mountain. The team of Nanyuan Group is different, whether it is infrastructure equipment Still, the quality of personnel is much better than others, and the project is progressing quite smoothly.

The construction of the river channel around the mountain is a huge project. The entire Banlu Mountain covers an area of ​​more than [-] mu, and the surrounding terrain is relatively complicated. It is not easy to excavate a river channel suitable for breeding and sightseeing. The area at the junction of Lushan and Xiaolushan is merged into the existing breeding network with the valley as the connection point, and then gradually expanded to other places, and finally the construction of the entire river around the mountain is completed.

In addition, some necessary infrastructure construction needs to be reported to the relevant departments of Linshan County, and the construction can only start after passing the review. Although this is not urgent, the preparation work must be done in advance, so as not to be implemented in time Get up and lack this and that.In addition, he also had some things to visit the relevant departments, so he made a special trip. With the current reputation and strength of the Spotted Deer Manor, it is not difficult to complete these things, but it will take some time to wait.

The research on the wooden magnetic array has initially achieved results, and Yunli started to adjust or rearrange it. Several fruit forest areas in Banlu Mountain need to re-arrange the wooden magnetic array. This is a lot of work, and Yunli also started from here. Get started.

The development of the fruit forest has not been smooth sailing. Xu Rui and the others have had mixed feelings recently. Most of the fruit trees planted last year are bearing fruit this year. Although many fruit trees are still in the seedling stage, it is already very good to be able to bear fruit .

Common fruits such as persimmon, green mango, longan, and lychee are quite good in terms of fruit setting rate and production quality, which can be said to be unexpected, but some have the same problem as the previous sweet orange trees, and the fruit produced is not satisfactory. It is not edible at all. Among them, there is a kind of Yunli that is focused on cultivation, but the results are not ideal.

This kind of fruit tree is called cherry. Cherry is a kind of fruit tree that is easy to grow but difficult to produce good fruit. The cherry fruit forest they planted on the south side of Banlu Mountain has a pretty good fruit bearing rate, but the taste of the fruit is bland or even Sour and astringent, the pulp is too dry, and it is not sold as a fruit. Even if it is made into candied fruit or sauce, they will not choose cherries of this quality, so they can only pick all the cherries from this batch, mash them and mix them into The feed is used to feed fish, shrimp and poultry.

Now the concentration of electromagnetic force in the entire Banlu Mountain is sufficient, so there is no problem with the growth of cherry trees, and they can also bloom and bear fruit. However, they are very sensitive to the condition of stable climate. Once the temperature difference changes frequently, the quality of the fruit they produce will be affected. It's far from it.

After analyzing the growth characteristics of the cherry trees, Yunli readjusted the wooden magnetic array in this area, focusing on the electromagnetic force of the Skinlizard attribute, and the other as auxiliary effects on this area. I believe that the temperature-controlling characteristics of the Skinlizard can make the Cherry trees slowly endure the climate and temperature changes here, strengthen their cold resistance to adapt to the environment, and will bear different fruits in the coming year.

In addition, several kinds of fruits such as jujubes and plums almost have this situation. Yunli has built a suitable wood magnetic array for them to grow one by one. Good care can also bear excellent fruit.

Summer vacation is here, and the construction of the new teaching building in Luzhen Middle School is in full swing, but Brother Chen's mood is gray. Suddenly leaving the place where he has worked and lived for decades, anyone will feel uncomfortable and hesitant Well, Brother Chen has to adapt to this stage, because he can't stay here to teach all his life, and he has to learn to let go when it's time to leave.

When the next semester starts, he still has some work that needs to be handed over to others. After all the work is handed over, he can officially retire. In fact, if he wants to, he can return to Luzhen Middle School at any time in the future. Even if he can't teach, he has to apply Living in a dormitory is still possible.

After retiring, he didn't know what he should do. He didn't have the heart to implement all the plans he had planned. He had a house in the town, but he didn't want to live in it, so after moving out of the middle school dormitory, he settled down directly. In the office building of the manor, wandering around every day, either helping out with small jobs, chatting with Yunli and Xu Jiali, complaining, or looking for materials to make some handicrafts, life is carefree, but what is going on in his heart? What he thought, only he himself knew.

The beef heart persimmons on the persimmon tree began to have ripe fruits to pick. Yunli asked Aunt Fang and Lily many times, but they still couldn't confirm whether the Mid-Autumn Festival would come after more than two months. Yunli was very upset. Looking forward to their coming, apart from getting together, he has to formally explain his relationship with Lu Ci to them, which is very important to him.

Although Lu Qishan told him many times, Yunli still didn't want to sell this batch of persimmons, but kept them to make persimmon cakes for himself. Lu Ci also had the same idea. Aunt Fang had already taught him how to make persimmon cakes. Even if she can't come this year, Lu Ci is confident that he can make delicious persimmon cakes and send them to her for tasting.

Compared with last year, the planting amount of persimmon trees has increased several times. In the woodland on the side of Dalu Mountain, many of them were planted as the eyes of the wooden magnetic array. The planting time was earlier, and now many small trees are growing There are green fruits hanging on them, and the ones planted first on Xiaolu Mountain have a higher fruit bearing rate. There is also a large persimmon forest in Banlu Mountain, but the planting time is late, and there is no fruit for the time being.

However, there are thousands of persimmon trees in the areas of Dalu Mountain and Xiaolu Mountain alone, and the persimmons that can be harvested this year are estimated to exceed [-] catties. This huge amount must be made into persimmon cakes, which is a task that is more difficult than making dried shrimps. It requires a huge project, but fortunately, not all the persimmons are ripe at one time, so it can still be realized if more helpers are invited to come in batches.
