Chapter 31
Father Lu raised his wine bowl, said something politely, and thanked the folks for taking care of Lu's house.Although the villagers didn't quite understand it, they all felt that it was ironic in their hearts.

The man who licks blood from the knife edge is not so hypocritical, he just cares about his face.

It was just a small favor on weekdays, but the Lu family held a banquet to entertain them and thank them solemnly. This made them feel very respected, so how could they not be happy.

Father Lu put down the wine bowl, and Feng Jian, who had been silent all this time, picked it up again. Naturally, he respected Uncle Bi first. These days, he went in and out of Lu's house to treat Feng Jian's injured leg, and he really did a lot.

This half-grown old man has no family. He settled in Laoxiongling about ten years ago. He usually went to the mountains to collect medicines. Tell me about his background and where he came from.

But as a doctor, he is extremely competent and respected by the villagers.

This half-grown old man doesn't have any hobbies, he just likes food, and if he pours two taels of strong wine, he can walk and hum songs happily for several days.

Previously, Xiaomi was seriously ill, and it was he who gave him the medicine, and then Feng Jian recuperated at the Lu family, so whatever delicious food Xiaomi cooked, he had to send a copy to the small courtyard of the Bi family.

Uncle Bi was very satisfied, how could he care whether Feng Jian was negligent or not.

He drank the wine readily, and yelled that Feng Jian would definitely come to him if he had any problems, and he would cure all diseases.

Everyone was amused to hear it. Wouldn't it be a curse for Feng Jian to get sick again?

But seeing that Feng Jian didn't show any signs of annoyance, everyone became a little more friendly to this distinguished foreign guest who was usually reticent.

The wine table has always been the easiest place to make friends.

After drinking three bowls of wine, punching, bragging, hooking shoulders, no matter how cold-tempered a person is, he will change his appearance.

Feng Jian deviated from his usual restraint, drank half a jar of spirits in the blink of an eye, causing the hunters to applaud loudly, and worked harder to drink.

Lao Yang didn't like watching from the sidelines, so he made an excuse and went out to look for millet in the backyard.

The women did not drink, had enough to eat and drink, and were clearing the tables to gossip.

Seeing Lao Yang waving outside, Xiaomi thought about it and smiled, "Aunts and sisters-in-law, I just have something to talk to you, why don't we go to the front yard to join in the fun."

"What's the matter? There is work at home that needs everyone's help, so just say it."

Everyone was curious and asked questions one after another, but Xiaomi smiled and refused to speak, got up and went out.

Seeing her walk in, Lao Yang said in a low voice, "Miss Lu, our young master drank a lot of wine for some reason, and he is already drunk now, can you...persuade him?"

"Brother Feng?" Lu Xiaomi was surprised when he heard that, Feng Jian usually eats lightly and behaves very restrainedly, why is he so indulgent today? Could something be bothering him and drink away his worries?

Thinking in this way, she quickly walked into the main room in the front yard. Sure enough, Feng Jian's complexion had changed, his eyes were a little hazy, but he still supported the wine jar with one hand.

Lu Xiaomi looked worried, but asked with a smile, "Did you enjoy your drink, uncles? If you are still enjoying yourself, please stop for a while. I have a few words to say."

Lao Yang took the opportunity to step forward to help Feng Jian, and said with a smile, "Our young master is drunk, I will wait for him to go back to rest first, so as not to delay Miss Lu from discussing important matters with all the heroes."

After talking, their master and servant went out.

Everyone wanted to stop them, and they were curious about what Xiaomi was going to say, so they easily let Feng Jian, a drinking buddy, go.

Seeing Feng Jian enter the East Wing, Xiaomi stood behind her father and said, "I worked so hard on growing vegetables before, and I caused a lot of trouble to my uncles and aunts. Now it seems that the result is not bad. I discussed it with my father last night. For a moment, if uncles and aunts are not afraid of trouble and want to try growing breakfast vegetables, feel free to ask me. I will know everything, and I will talk endlessly."

"This..." Everyone heard that the class didn't speak, and they looked at each other to make sure that they didn't have auditory hallucinations due to drinking too much alcohol.

"Xiaomi, you mean to teach everyone how to grow vegetables?"

"That's right, it's the way to grow vegetables in winter, not something else?"

"Yeah," Xiaomi smiled sincerely, without any deceit or reluctance, "We are a family of eighteen households in Laoxiongling. How can we make a fortune by eating alone? As long as uncles and aunts want to learn, I will teach them."

After that, she changed the topic and said, "However, uncles and aunts also know about growing vegetables. They are afraid of natural disasters, and the cost is high. If in the future, instead of benefiting, they suffer losses, uncles and aunts don't blame me." !"

"Of course, how can I blame you!"

"That's right, if you can teach everyone how to get rich like this, it will be a great kindness. If anyone dares to be a white-eyed wolf, I will shoot him to death with an arrow!"

The men were all so excited, they all patted their chests to promise.

The women were so happy that they almost wiped their tears. As wives and mothers, no one likes a man and his son to go hunting in the mountains and fight to the death with wild animals.In the past, the naughty children learned to read and write at the Lu family, and in the future there will be another way, a way to no longer be a hunter.

Now, Xiaomi has personally said that he will teach everyone how to grow vegetables in winter, which is to deliver the cornucopia to them.

Not to mention the men and sons in the family, even future generations will benefit from this method.

What kind of kindness is this? It's simply that the whole family can't repay it.

"Xiaomi, you are so kind. We..."

Several young daughters-in-law took Xiaomi's hand, choked up and didn't know what to say.

Xiaomi couldn't bear this the most, after all, she didn't do it without selfishness.This time and space is different from the previous life, there is no clan, no protection from folks, wealth is a reminder.

If the eighteen households in Laoxiongling are all rich and honored, advance and retreat together, at least when there are outsiders coveting, a hundred bows and arrows will be wound, and self-protection is enough.

"Oh, sisters-in-law, don't be a layman. If you really thank me, you can help me do more needlework in the future. You know that this is the most troublesome thing for me. Also, when the weather is good, the front and back of the house Then open an open space. I will move to the sheds in the vegetable garden to pack grain seedlings, and then each family will move back the amount of one mu, and the harvest in autumn will be enough for half a year's ration."

"What, there are also corn seedlings?"

Now everyone was even more excited and stood up one after another.

Although the method of growing vegetables is a cornucopia, it is already too late this year, and planting corn is just around the corner.

In previous years, the warming in spring was too slow, and the frost in autumn was too early. The production of corn often disappeared or decreased.Now I suddenly heard that Xiaomi gave away the package of grain seedlings, why not happy?
You must know that the corn seedlings in the vegetable shed are already five inches high. If they are planted after a while, they will be a month earlier than others. No matter how early the autumn frost comes, it will be enough to harvest golden big corn stick.

"Then, Xiaomi, the corn seedlings are divided among us. What do you grow in your field?"

Everyone was completely dizzy because of their displeasure, and someone asked loudly.

Xiaomi waved his hand, "I ask the shopkeeper Chen to buy me some ground egg seeds in the south, and see if I can open a workshop in autumn to figure out a new way. Maybe next spring, all uncles don't even want to plant corn, so change Farmed eggs with me."

"Ah, that's okay, don't delay your family's harvest because of us killing talents."

"That's right, don't care how much money you earn from farming eggs, everyone is not jealous. You gave everyone these corn seedlings, which is half a year's ration, and everyone misses you. If you have work in the future, just ask. The people at the bottom of the mountain Thirty acres of dry land, we'll take over."

"That's right, that's right, the family should stop hiring short-term workers this year, those people are too cunning and unreal!"

Everyone chattered about this year's arrangement, and they all excitedly picked up the wine jar and drank it as water.

After a while, the man fell back and forth, and was helped back by the angry women.

The naughty boys brought big pottery bowls filled with leftovers, enough for the whole family to heat up for another good meal tomorrow morning.

Xiaomi was busy bringing a thank-you gift to Master Feng and Uncle Bi. Although it was some ordinary things such as shredded tobacco and tea, the two of them smiled happily.

Aunt Liu and Guizhi's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stayed at the end, helping Xiaomi clean up the kitchen and the dishes.

Xiaomi didn't have to think of a way to hide from others, and directly stuffed them with a piece of bright red muslin.

Aunt Liu still refused, but this material was specially ordered by Xiaomi to buy it from Boss Lu. It is extremely soft and bright in color, and it is very suitable for making small clothes and quilts for children.She was reluctant to part with it, and accepted it with great regret.

After seeing off the last guest, the Lu family compound, which had been bustling all day, finally calmed down.

Xiaomi leaned against the door and looked at the folks who were walking farther and farther in the night. Hearing the laughter in the evening wind, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

From then on, everyone in Old Xiongling willingly tied up with the Lu family's chariot.

As long as someone dares to harm the interests of the Lu family and covets the things of the Lu family, it will be a way for everyone in Old Xiongling to survive.

She can finally breathe a sigh of relief...

"Miss Lu, our young master is a little drunk, can I trouble you to make a bowl of hangover soup?"

Lu Xiaomi was staring at the night sky in a daze, when he heard someone talking suddenly, he was startled, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that it was Lao Yang, and quickly responded, "Ah, Uncle Yang, the hangover soup is too bad. Uncle Bi’s sober pills, why don’t I take one and feed it to Brother Feng.”

Lao Yang had a bitter face, and rubbed his stomach with his hands, begging, "Miss Lu, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I have to go to the latrine, and Gao Ren has gone somewhere. I need to trouble you to deliver medicine to our young master." Already!"

After all, he hurried to the latrine without waiting for Xiaomi's answer.

Xiaomi blinked his eyes twice, feeling that the old man was trying to be lazy, but after thinking about it, it was just a gift of hangover medicine, so there was nothing pretentious about it.After all, when Feng Jian was unable to move, she had carried him around the house for countless times.

If she really pays attention to "whether men and women give or take each other", she is afraid that she will be immersed in a pig cage countless times.

Thinking like this, she ran back to the backyard to get the pills, and went to the East Chamber to look for Feng Jian.

In the inner room of the East Wing, Feng Jian had already taken off his coat and loosened his hair. His face was very red now, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he was obviously very drunk.
