Quick Travel: Jing Yuan's Wanderings
Chapter 63: The Farmer of Qiu State (Mr. Guo) 8
After parking the mule cart in a special place, the three of them headed straight for the food street near Xizhimen.
Not surprisingly, lunch was again eaten at the wonton stall.
At Qian Banliang's strong recommendation, I ordered a large bowl of seafood wontons with dried shrimp and kelp for 15 cents.
As long as it tastes good.
Lieutenant General Jing Yuan silently took note of the different flavors of wontons mentioned by the proprietress.
Clear soup, spicy flavor, lard, spicy, seafood, etc.
I secretly decided that if I had the chance in the future, I would try every flavor and learn from them secretly.
……
It was noon and there were very few people on the street.
Even fewer people shop around.
It is worthy of being the Qilixiang Shop which is famous in the capital for its service and quality.
Seeing Lieutenant General Jing Yuan enter the room wearing straw sandals, the maid's smile remained unchanged, and there was no arrogance or contempt in her eyes as expected.
The main force behind this purchase became Qian Sanwen.
When she heard that they were going to be taken to Northeast China, the maid immediately began to enthusiastically introduce various whitening and moisturizing skin care products, each priced at around 10 taels of silver.
In the end, Lieutenant General Jing Yuan made the decision and asked Qian Sanfen to buy a box of Pearl Hibiscus Whitening Cream worth 10 taels of silver.
At the same time, she took out a purse from her arms, took out the original owner's savings, handed a 10-liang silver note to the maid, and bought a box of whitening cream.
As for the 11 taels of silver he had earned in the past two days, Lieutenant General Jing Yuan decided to come back tomorrow to buy more.
After all, it was summer, and the clothes were thin. No matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like he could carry 10 yuan and 1 tael of silver ingots.
A palm-sized hexagonal mahogany carved jewelry box contains a light green round ceramic jar.
Such a cute jar!
Lieutenant General Jing Yuan fell in love with her at first sight.
I secretly decided that when I make money later, I will definitely stock up on two more.
She carefully took the jewelry box from the maid and put it into the small bamboo basket.
Then, he left the Qilixiang Shop happily.
After delivering Qian Sanwen and Qian Banliang to Guicheng Dental Clinic and stuffing the melons in the small bamboo basket between the two men, Lieutenant General Jing Yuan drove the mule cart back home in a hurry.
According to Qian Sanwen, Mr. Guo is most likely a mysophobe.
He had to go home quickly to clean up.
Lieutenant General Jing Yuan tied the mule and two sheep far away in the sweet potato field.
It's not good for people to see livestock defecating as soon as they arrive.
Then, he picked up a broom made of thin bamboo branches and started cleaning the yard frantically.
The bed and table were moved into the main room.
The garbage was shoveled into willow baskets and poured into the sweet potato field.
Then, he cleaned the sheep pen and chicken coop again.
Fortunately, the chickens were not at home, otherwise I would have to catch them one by one into the bamboo basket, cover it with a lid, and carry it until the sweet potatoes were lowered to keep the mules and sheep company.
Then, he quickly ran back to the house and stuffed all the bedding, clothes, etc. into the closet and hid them tightly.
Fortunately, the house was newly built, so Jing Xiaoman and Jing Chuxia rarely spent the night at home.
I only have one day off a month. I usually come back and leave on the same day. After all, I have to go to work the next day.
Therefore, there are very few things in the whole house, so it is naturally easy to tidy up.
At this point, it seems like a small good thing!
The last step is to clean the kitchen.
Wash what needs to be washed, hide what needs to be hidden.
It was quickly cleaned up.
I don’t know if it’s because of the light or if it’s an illusion.
In short, the whole kitchen became visibly brighter.
After they carried the sewage to the bamboo bush and dumped it, before they had time to catch their breath, Qian Sanwen had already led them to the gate of the courtyard.
"Uncle Jing, I'm here. This is Mr. Guo from Yuzhou. I came to see your house."
Lieutenant General Jing Yuan quickly bowed in greeting.
"How are you, Mr. Guo?"
Mr. Guo and the strong man beside him immediately bowed in return.
"Hello, old man. I heard that you planted some cantaloupes and watermelons in your backyard. Can you allow me to go see them?"
"Yes, yes. Mr. Guo, this way please."
A group of people came to the melon vines first.
Guo Maowen was delighted to see the prey and kept tapping his palms with his fan in excitement.
“The green leaves cover the green and white, and the melon fragrance is refreshing!
It is really amazing, wonderful and full of fun.
Elder, can you allow me to try picking a few of these myself? "
He speaks in a strange way, and it's really hard to listen to him. Don't you just want to pick two cantaloupes to taste? What's wrong with that?
Although Lieutenant General Jing Yuan complained in his heart, the smile on his face never stopped.
"Sure, sure. You must be thirsty coming here in such hot weather. Pick a few more to quench your thirst.
There are some watermelons over there, some of them should be ripe, would you like to pick them yourself or should I help you?"
"Thank you so much, old man. You can do it yourself and enjoy the rural life.
I'll do it myself. Qingshan..."
The sturdy man moved at the sound, bent down, stretched out his hands, and handed a purse to Lieutenant General Jing Yuan.
"Old man, my son invites you to have tea!"
Uh, I see, this is the legendary reward!
Lieutenant General Jing Yuan took it quickly with a smile. It was light and fluttery, so it must be a banknote!
"Thank you Mr. Guo for the reward. Brother Qingshan, if you want to eat, you can pick as many as you want.
I'll go to the front yard and get you a basket."
After saying this, he turned around and walked away without waiting for anyone to answer.
He came to the front yard and put system 003 on security alert. He opened his purse and saw that it contained a silver note with a face value of 5 taels.
What a huge profit!
He put them into the system warehouse with a smile, took out two small flower baskets from it, and strolled leisurely to the backyard.
Mr. Guo was instantly delighted by the delicate and light little bamboo basket, and he immediately put the melon in his hand into it.
He held it in his hand and looked at it from left to right. He loved it so much that he could only compose two lines of doggerel:
"In the hottest days of summer, the wind rustles the bamboos. Skillful hands weave them carefully, and lightly carry a basket full of incense."
Lieutenant General Jing Yuan's mouth twitched, and the smile on his face almost couldn't be maintained.
Could it be that this guy has gone crazy from studying and has contracted some kind of disease?
Mr. Guo picked five melons in a row, and then handed the bamboo basket to Qingshan with a reluctant look.
Holding the hem of his dress, he quickly walked into the watermelon field.
The four of them hurriedly followed.
Mr. Guo's eyes were shining and his gaze quickly swept over each watermelon.
Finally, the biggest one came into view...
