Joe's Farming

Because she didn't see Xu Yuan at the wedding banquet, Qiao Yu planned to go to Xu's house alone after lunch tomorrow.

At this moment in Xu's residence, Xu Ning was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, feeling uneasy.

Xu Ning's voice trembled a little: "I...it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of my husband."

The bloodstains on the ground had already been cleaned up by the servants, but Xu Ning still blamed himself.

Madam Xu looked at her husband who was kneeling on the ground in an orderly manner, then looked at her son who was lying unconscious on the bed, and sighed:

"Get up, it's not your fault."

Xu Ning then stood up. His wedding dress had become wrinkled from taking care of Xu Yuan.

That afternoon, they called a doctor, boiled medicine and fed the patient medicine. After finally waiting for the patient's breathing to stabilize, Xu Ning knelt on the ground to admit his mistake, fearing that his parents-in-law would think he was unlucky and would bring trouble to the family.

Mrs. Xu saw how much Xu Ning cared about her husband. She knew that her husband would be even more uncomfortable if they stayed any longer, so she pulled Mr. Xu who was sitting next to her up and said, "Let's go. It's useless for us to stay here. Let your new husband take care of you!"

Xu Ning said respectfully: "Dad, Mom, take care."

Madam Xu urged: "Go and rest quickly. You haven't eaten anything all day. Don't let Ayuan fall ill before you wake up."

Xu Ning almost forgot that she had nothing. "Mom, I know. Don't worry. When my husband wakes up, I'll have someone tell you and Dad."

Mr. Xu and his wife nodded together. In fact, they were not very satisfied with their son-in-law at first. He was a country boy and looked like a man. But this afternoon, Xu Ning was busy taking care of his son, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was reduced by half.

Fortunately, the doctor said that although Xu Yuan's vomiting of blood looked serious, there was no major change in his pulse.

After Xu Ning sent his parents-in-law away, he instantly collapsed and slumped into a chair.

The servant hurried forward and asked, "Young Master, are you okay?"

Xu Ning waved his hand: "I'm fine, can you bring me some food?"

The servant quickly agreed and went to the kitchen to fetch food.

Xu Ning sat down next to Xu Yuan again with concern. Xu Yuan looked extremely weak. Xu Ning used his hand to confirm that his breathing was steady before he went behind the screen to change his clothes.

Mrs. Xu had someone prepare these clothes in advance and send them over.

When the girl was brought to him, Xu Yuan was lying on the bed and didn't see it, otherwise he would have realized earlier that the person he was going to marry was Ge'er.

After Xu Ning changed his clothes, the servant brought in the food box.

The food box has two layers, the upper layer contains a bowl of fine rice and two plates of fried vegetables, and the lower layer contains a bowl of chicken soup and a steamed mandarin fish.

The servant arranged the food one by one and stepped aside to wait.

Xu Ning was very hungry, so he picked up the bowl and started eating. Then he remembered his current status, stole a glance at the servant, and silently slowed down.

Even so, the small bowl of rice was finished quickly.

Xu Ning looked at the servant sheepishly: "Can you give me some more rice?"

The servant looked at his new master in surprise. His appetite was at least several times that of the young master.

Xu Ning felt even more embarrassed and said with his head down: "It doesn't matter if you don't have it." He had eaten all the dishes, so he should be half full.

Anyone who can be kept by Xu Yuan to serve him must not be someone who dares to look down on his new master.

The servant said hurriedly, "Yes! Yes! Yes. Please wait a moment, young master."

The servant ran quickly to the kitchen. He had previously ordered dishes according to the young master's preferences, but it was obvious that the young master was a big eater.

While the servant was away, Xu Ning went to the bedside to check on Xu Yuan again. After confirming that there was no change, he sat back at the table, picked up the bowl of chicken soup and drank it slowly.

This was the first time Xu Ning had drunk chicken soup in a year. While drinking it, Xu Ning thought, Dad and Little Dad can rest assured, he eats well in the Xu Mansion, and his parents-in-law treat him well.

The waiter came back with a food box. When he opened it, he found not only a large bowl of rice, but also a portion of braised pork elbow, half a roast duck, and half a drunken chicken.

The servant looked at Xu Ning cautiously: "Young Master, have you seen enough? If not, I'll get more."

Xu Ning: "Enough is enough!"

After Xu Ning finished his meal, the servant arranged for someone to prepare a bath for him. Among the toiletries prepared by the servant, he saw the soap made by Qiao Yu. It turned out that her husband also liked the soap made by Qiao Ge'er.

After taking a comfortable bath, Xu Ning began to wonder where to sleep tonight. Finally, he carried the beauty couch in front of Xu Yuan, facing his husband. The wedding candles had to burn all night, and he just looked at his husband falling asleep on the couch under the candlelight.

Second day

Qiao Yu gets up early to boil lard. He can now make 50 pieces of patterned soaps and 100 pieces of ordinary square soaps at a time. The ones with panda heads are not regular, but they are usually used to mix colors. Their main features are that they look good and are easy to carry.

There was a patch of wild mint growing on the sunny slope in front of the house, so Qiao Yu picked it, pounded it into a paste, squeezed out the green mint juice with gauze, and added it to the soap liquid to make a batch of mint-scented soap. It made hands feel very refreshing without a strong smell.

Qiao Yu thought that this model might sell better in summer.

After making the soap, he fried some chestnuts and prepared to bring them to Xu Yuan and Xu Ning later.

When Li Li'niang came over in the morning, she said that Wen Ge'er's foot was no longer seriously injured and asked him if he could come to work tomorrow.

Qiao Yu was of course very willing. But he was still a little worried about Wen Ge'er, so he decided to go see Wen Ge'er after returning from town.

Only after confirming that there is indeed no problem can he be allowed to set up the stall. It just so happens that his own soap will be available tomorrow, so he wants to go with us.

The children are reading Thousand Character Classic with Grandpa Wang. The children are still a little unhappy about what happened in the village yesterday. It will probably take a few days for them to get over it.

When it was almost time for dinner, Qiao Yu cut the pork belly into slices three fingers wide, sliced ​​the sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and lotus root, washed the lettuce, and cut some green peppers and garlic slices.

After all the ingredients were ready, Qiao Yu asked the children to call Gu Feng back for lunch.

Afraid that his family would not be full with just the barbecue, Qiao Yu went to Aunt Shi's place to get some food.

Li Xiuniang was also there. Ever since Wen Ge'er and Wang Jie's relationship was settled, she and Shi Daniang had become even closer.

Li Xiuniang saw Qiao Yu coming to get food and smiled as she gave him a lot. Qiao Yu smiled bitterly, "Aunt, it's too much. There's not enough for others."

Li Xiuniang said hurriedly: "It's enough, it's enough, don't worry. The workers have enough to eat." The money given by Qiao Yu and Gu Feng for vegetables was reasonable, and the meals prepared every day were sufficient.

"That's fine. I'll go home and tell Brother Wen that I'll go see him later this afternoon."

"Okay."

When Qiao Yu came back from cooking, Gu Feng had already helped him burn the charcoal. The charcoal basin was placed in the middle of the yard, and the barbecue grill was also set up. All the ingredients were laid out in the yard for easy access.

Qiao Yu: "Why are you so considerate?"

Gu Feng raised his lips but said nothing. Qiao Yu gave him a quick kiss before the kids noticed.

"Hurry up and wash your hands. I'll grill some meat for you."

Everyone sat obediently around the charcoal brazier, watching Qiao Yu rub the fat on the iron net and then put the pork belly on it.

Qiao Yu: "Let's eat the meat first and grill the vegetables later."

The children nodded.

When the pork belly was roasted and one side was browned, Qiao Yu quickly turned it over. The oil dripped into the charcoal and white smoke came out. Gu Feng then found a straw fan and fanned his husband.

Qiao Yu smiled and said no, then seeing that the meat was almost done, he taught everyone how to eat it:

"First, take a lettuce leaf, Xiaoxing. Half of it will do. Then pick up a piece of meat, dip it in some chili powder, add some green peppers and garlic, and wrap it up like dumplings."

Qiao Yu wrapped the first one and handed it to Gu Feng: "Open your mouth."

Gu Feng obediently ate the lettuce wrapped barbecue.

Qiao Yu's eyebrows curved: "Is it delicious?"

Gu Xiaoxue shouted: "Delicious! Daddy, can I have two pieces of meat?"

"Whatever you want! Hurry up, it's going to get messy."
