A beautiful little life in a farmhouse

Chapter 70 Spicy Pot
In the hot pot shop in the county seat, the business is booming, and Shan Zi, who runs errands with a happy face, goes around telling the guests who come in for dinner that his shopkeeper is about to get married, which finally makes Mu Wanniang dare not enter the shop.

She hurriedly asked Shanzi to put some candies she had just bought at the candy shop in the shop, and asked him to hand them out to the guests who came in for dinner.

And she hid in the backyard with a red face, listening to Wen Hai leading Shitou to study in another room.

Wen Hai moved in from that yam village yesterday afternoon.

When he saw Xiwen, he felt a little familiar, and he didn't know if he had seen it there before, but he felt that people in this world always have similarities, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but he liked the stone more. curious.

When Mu Wanniang brought the stone to see him for the first time today, he told her that the stone had a face that wanted to fly upwards.

"I once learned face reading from an old man with a good friend. Miss Mu's younger brother's appearance can be regarded as the most talented one Wen Hai has ever seen."

Although Mu Wanniang was somewhat superstitious about these things, she felt that this was the first time Wen Hai had come here, and she was afraid she was flattering her, so she didn't pay much attention immediately, and only said that he could discuss things with Shitou first. If you still can't decide, you can come to her.

"As long as you don't think the shop in front is too noisy."

Wen Hai didn't care about waving his hands, "Study means that you can concentrate more in the downtown area and remember the contents of this book better, not to mention that the girl's shop is not as noisy as this downtown area."

Mu Wanniang also felt that this was reasonable, after all, the backyard was quite big, and Wenhai's room was specially arranged by Mu Wanniang at the place farthest from the shop.

Wen Hai took the stone to study, and Xi Wen lay beside him and listened obediently. When he got tired of listening, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.On the contrary, the third baby ran up to her with a little book and yelled at her at the beginning, the only thing Mu Wanniang could understand was the words 'sister', 'book' and 'brother' in his mouth. .

Mu Wanniang just started watching for a while, and saw that the third baby was sitting there looking at herself, so she was relieved and went to the kitchen to try the spicy pot bottom.

Compared with the clear soup and sour soup pot bottoms that she made before, the spicy pot bottom is completely different and more complicated.

It just so happens that this time is not the normal time for lunch, and there are not many customers in the shop, and Aunt Chunwen is also free in the kitchen.

Mu Wanniang asked her to watch her do it again, and gave her a demonstration.

When it came time to use chili, although she didn't ask, she still explained: "This is a seasoning that I met a businessman by chance before. I heard that it is from the barbarian side, just like the dogwood on our side. But it just has a lot more flavor.”

"Now I haven't found a place where there are a lot of plantings, so we will only launch it a few times this time, and we can't sell it directly. Let them taste it at that time. If they can accept it, we will continue to plan."

Now whether it is in the vegetable garden in the backyard of the house in Lihua Village, or the pepper seedlings that she placed in the space to nourish and grow, there are actually quite a few left.

The peppers raised in Lingquan not only grow well, but also grow more branches. The peppers on one plant are at least twice as many as the usual peppers on one plant.

So now Mu Wanniang plans to supply hot pot bottoms for a few days first, and then discuss with Aunt Wang about the method of planting peppers in a large area.

When she was walking around the village yesterday afternoon, she thought that Uncle Zhang and Zhang Yuangui usually had a lot of contact with people, and she also knew what kind of things were sold in the nearby county towns, so she went to ask a few questions, thinking that he had actually seen this place before. chili.

"But the people over there call it the red striped fruit." When Zhang Yuangui went to the nearby county town to deliver ducks, he saw it growing in front of someone's house, but no one touched it.

"What do you want that for?"

Mu Wanniang didn't say what she was going to use it for, only that she wanted to use it as seasoning.

"That shouldn't work." Zhang Yuangui knew that she opened a shop specializing in food in that county, "If you buy it and sell it, you will definitely need a lot, but I asked before, people over there don't eat this, They said it tasted bad, so they pulled it out and planted trees, there must be very few of them.”

It is a pity to say that it is certain, but since this has happened, then don't worry too much about whether it can be used.

Mu Wanniang didn't plan to continue looking, but planned to plant a large area on her side.

Aunt Wang and Wang Dafu's family are farmers, except for the son who is a soldier who sends money back, the two of them are useless, they just save it, and usually use the money from their own farming. Not bad.

Mu Wanniang and Aunt Wang are familiar, so she naturally knows that Wang Dafu grows the best things in this Lihua village.

Naturally, not all the seeds planted every year will be reaped, but the vegetables harvested by Aunt Wang’s family are all full-grown and have the highest survival rate, otherwise the couple would not be able to live with the money in this kind of land. Pretty good.

It's almost spring now, but the peppers have to wait for summer to be sown, but if this spicy pot is pushed out, it will definitely continue to be supplied at that time, and the empty time in between cannot be too long.

So the pepper planting has to get the time right now.

There are still three peppers left in Mu Wanniang's space, but she has been watering them with Lingquan. After a few days, there will be a few more peppers. At that time, I will first build a small greenhouse to grow peppers, and when they mature After planting, continue to plant.

After all, the planting method and the setting of the greenhouse that Mu Wanniang learned were only read from the books in that space, but failures are inevitable in actual operation.

So Mu Wanniang is still going to go to the village that Zhang Yuangui and Uncle Zhang mentioned to see if there will be any surviving pepper seedlings. If there are more of the first batch of pepper seedlings, they will be ready before this year's cold winter. I can receive the first batch of chili peppers for making spicy pot.

But Mu Wanniang couldn't leave this place, so she had to find someone to help her.

And if you can find someone...

Mu Wanniang set her sights on Ma Yuan.

Although I know that Xue Mu was called to protect her, but after Xue Mu came back, it seems that he is no longer needed, and he has stayed at home without doing anything. This time is a good opportunity for him to "take the blame and make meritorious service" .

In the past few days, Ma Yuan, who was taken by his general to buy things for his marriage, was ready to rest after returning, but he didn't want to be stopped by the general's wife before he entered the house where he lived.

"What's the matter with the girl?"
