Qixuan Episode (31)
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! The sweet potatoes and yams in the field are growing very well. Aunt Dou comes to work every day and looks at these long and lush crops. She does everything very well. Vigorous.
One day, Aunt Dou went to work in the field and picked some sweet potato leaves and went home. Because there is no oil, put it in the pan and fry it twice before shoveling it up.
Qixuan said: "When I'm at home, I peel off the skin of the sweet potato stalks, then wash it and fry it with lard. It tastes very good." Even my brother Song, who doesn't like vegetables very much, likes it very much.
Aunt Dou rolled her eyes at Qixuan and said, "What you said is not nonsense. What dish is not good to fry with lard? The lard is mixed with wild vegetables, and it tastes delicious."
Qixuan used to be very particular about his food, but now he can't even eat home-raised pork.
Seeing his depression, Aunt Dou couldn't help cheering him up: "Practice hard, I'm still waiting to eat the wild animals you hunt!" In fact, Aunt Dou didn't have much confidence.
Speaking of this, Qixuan said to Aunt Dou: "I'm going to exercise with weights." The so-called weight-bearing exercise is to tie a few sandbags on the body, and then exercise,
Of course Aunt Dou had no objection.
Qixuan said embarrassedly: "Exercising with weights will increase your appetite." In the past, he only cared about the taste of the food and never cared about the amount of food, but now it's the other way around.
"It's okay. In half a month or so, it's time to go out to the mountains to purchase. At that time, you will go out with them. Buy more grains and come back. We will grow grains, and we will have enough to eat." They have no children, as long as they are willing to work and eat. Still no problem.
Qixuan is more realistic about the problem now: "We have no money. Besides, it is so far away, it is impossible to buy food to bring back. I just buy some daily necessities." For example, salt and cloth, these must be bought. When it's hot today, they are still wearing autumn clothes. It is also cool on the mountain, if you want to be in the capital, you may already have prickly heat.
After a pause, Qixuan said: "There is no corn here, I will bring back some corn seeds." It is said that the corn is planted on the reclaimed land, and the harvest will be very good. It just so happens that there is still an acre of land that has not been reclaimed, and it will be fully planted with corn.
Aunt Dou thought it was a good idea.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was time for the three-monthly purchase.
Aunt Dou was thinking about how to tell the village chief that she hoped that people in the village would take Qixuan out for shopping. Unexpectedly, the village chief would take the initiative to mention this matter.
The village chief said, "Your salt is about to run out, right? The village will go out to buy in the future, do you want Xiaojun to go with you?" Ajia Village is self-sufficient, and there is no need to buy anything except salt. As for the oil, none of them had eaten that stuff.
Aunt Dou was overjoyed: "Okay, thank you village chief."
The village head was also infected, and said with a smile: "You're welcome. But there are some things that I have to explain to you."
The young and middle-aged people in Ajia Village go out to buy, and they have to bring back fifty catties of salt every month. The fifty catties of salt had to be handed in, and the rest were free to purchase.
Some families in the village are old and weak, women and children, and those who are not young and middle-aged cannot go to the market, but they have to eat salt. So, there is this hard requirement.
Qi Xuan listened very carefully.
After the village chief finished speaking, he said, "This is your first time going, and you have just recovered from a serious injury, so this time you will not be required to hand in fifty catties of salt. But next time, you have to follow the rules of the village. "Otherwise, the villagers should have an opinion.
Although Qixuan doesn't like the villagers of Ajia Village, living behind the village can be regarded as being protected by the villagers.
Qi Xuan nodded and said, "It should."
Aunt Dou told Qi Xuan everything she was about to buy. In addition to the necessity of salt, there are many kinds of grain.
Listening, Qixuan suddenly said: "We have no money, how can we buy things?" Because he had been driven out of the capital, Qixuan specially brought a purse of gold leaves. In the end, he didn't know when Gu Jiu touched him.
Aunt Dou gave him a blank look, and said, "You just know you don't have any money now? If you really think about it, it must be a waste of time."
After hearing this,
Qi Xuan asked with a look of surprise: "You have money? But didn't your jewelry box also be taken away by Gu Jiu?" This Gu Jiu was really ruthless, he didn't leave a copper coin for them.
Aunt Dou reached out to lift up the collar of her clothes, and then took out a gold necklace from inside. There was also a small golden Buddha pendant hanging on the necklace.
Qixuan was both surprised and delighted: "When did you hide it?" These two things, if you just take them out, they are enough to buy what they want.
"I always wear the necklace." Fortunately, Gu Jiu was a man and didn't search her body, otherwise even if he could go out now, he wouldn't have the money to buy things.
Qixuan said: "Fortunately, you have taken precautions, otherwise the seeds may not be able to be bought."
Aunt Dou nodded.
After thinking for a while, Qixuan said to Aunt Dou, "I want to buy a knife and practice it later."
Seeing Aunt Dou looking at him, Qixuan explained: "I don't remember all the martial arts I learned before, but I only remember the Yun family's saber technique."
"The Yun family's sword technique?"
Qixuan hummed and said, "It was passed down from my great-grandfather. Except for my second sister, all five of us have learned this set of saber techniques." Yun's saber techniques are all memorized, thanks to Zao Zao. After the three brothers learned this saber technique, Zao Zao tested them on a whim. As a result, the three brothers were tortured to pieces. Later, Qi Rui practiced this set of saber techniques by himself, and asked him to teach Qiyou how to do it. After a long time, it will naturally become familiar.
It means that this is a kung fu that is not rumored.
Aunt Dou said: "This time I will give you the Golden Buddha. The gold necklace should be kept in case of emergencies." Gu Jiu was to ensure that their lives would be safe, but no more. If not, they would not have plundered all their money.
In fact, how can Gu Jiu not know that Aunt Dou still has gold jewelry on her body, and confiscating them is to leave some money for them to buy things. Otherwise, they would not be able to afford food and salt, and if the two of them could not survive, they would have to force him to show up.
After talking for a long time, both of them were sleepy.
After sleeping until midnight, Aunt Dou woke up suddenly. Pushing Qixuan who was sleeping like a dead pig to wake up, Aunt Dou said: "Yun Qixuan, you have to run away and leave me alone in this ghostly place when you go out this time, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go."
I was dreaming just now, dreaming that after Qixuan went out, he never came back. And she was forced to marry Nitti, and never left the mountain in her life. In my lifetime, I never saw my son Yikang again.
Thinking of this nightmare, Aunt Dou shuddered. Now she can be busy from morning to night, too tired to walk and not discouraged, because she knows that sooner or later she will be able to return to Beijing. But if you stay in Dashan and can't go back to Beijing, then you really can't live.
Qi Xuan was in a daze, and couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "How could I leave you and run away. Besides, even if I wanted to, I couldn't run away. Gu Jiu will definitely catch me and send me back. And If I really run away, I'm afraid that my parents really give up on me and don't care about me anymore."
Humming, Aunt Dou said, "Don't you hate the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager?"
Qixuan shook his head and said: "I'm not filial. I only knew how to complain before, but I never thought about the difficulty of my parents. During the time I was lying in bed, I recalled the past. Although my mother is very busy, she still wants me to be sick. If it hurts, she will always be by my side.”
Aunt Dou wanted to thump Qixuan twice: "I'm sick, and my mother doesn't have time to take care of me, so I asked the lady next door to take care of me."
"I don't have time to take care of you when I'm sick?"
"My father can't handle it by sailing alone, and if he delays for a day, he will have no money. There are five mouths waiting for food!" After finishing speaking, Aunt Dou couldn't help scolding: "So you are in the blessing I don’t know how lucky I am to be able to read and write with famous teachers since I was a child, and there are also experts who teach you martial arts. I started to take care of my younger brother when I was four years old. My two younger brothers were brought up by me. Up to now, I still can’t read One!"
Qixuan felt something was wrong when he heard this: "Didn't I teach you before, how come you don't know a single word?"
Aunt Dou rolled her eyes: "I forgot it a long time ago." It was because she didn't know a single word that she admired Qi Xuan who could recite poems and poems. As a result, he pitted himself.
The corner of Qi Xuan's mouth twitched, he had been teaching for more than three months. In the end, I didn't even remember a single word. This is really a rotten piece of wood, I hope my son will not be like her.
"I have to get up early tomorrow, go to sleep!"
Qi Xuan quickly fell asleep.
Turning around and looking at the sleeping Qixuan, Aunt Dou sighed, and said in a subdued voice: "It would be nice if I didn't know you." The words were full of bitterness.
Yun Qixuan, who used to be lecherous and irresponsible, she never looked down on. But now that Qixuan is gradually improving, she feels relieved and sad, and her mood is very complicated.
She is just a concubine, so different from Yun Qixuan. And the only one who can stand with him is the princess. The two of them are the ones who should stand side by side.
When Aunt Dou saw Dai Yanxin for the first time, she was astonished. At that time, she couldn't figure out why Yun Qixuan would take a fancy to her because Dai Yanxin was so beautiful. But when she saw more than a dozen concubines in the backyard, she wouldn't think about it anymore.
After thinking about it wildly, Aunt Dou couldn't fall asleep, so she just got up and cooked for Qixuan.
I borrowed two liters of corn from the village head, which has been ground into powder. After the fire was fired, Aunt Dou baked them all into cakes. Because of the addition of meat, this pancake is particularly fragrant. Aunt Dou herself couldn't help eating a piece.
When Qixuan got up, Aunt Dou had already baked the cakes.
Seeing two pockets of pancakes, Qixuan asked in surprise: "Why are you baking so many? Didn't the village chief say that you only need to bring two days' worth of dry food?" quick. It is estimated that it will take a day and a half to reach the town. But when I came back, I brought a lot of things. If I was quick, I could be back in two and a half days. If it was slow, it would take three or four days to get home.
Aunt Dou said: "One is for you, and the other is for Nitti." Aunt Dou was really embarrassed to eat so much meat. Hearing that the village head's wife said that Niti would go to the market with her, she thought about making some food for him too.
Qixuan hesitated for a while, and said: "Since you have no intentions for him, it is better not to make things for him. To save him from getting things, he will think too much." If you don't give people hope, you won't be sad if you don't get what you want in the end. up.
This Aunt Dou really didn't expect: "Then you tell him that you asked me to make these pancakes."
Qi Xuan nodded.
