Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

The matter of water turning and overturning was written by the magistrate of Linchuan County, and reported to Tong Liyu, the governor of Fuzhou, as a major pioneering work in Linchuan County.As long as it can attract enough attention, this can be regarded as an addition to the performance test.

Tong Liyu sent Si Tian to join the army to inspect the water turner, and carefully wrote down the manufacturing method of the water turner and the points that need attention.

Water-turning carts are naturally ten times more efficient than manpower-turning carts, but the cost of building so many water-turning carts is insufficient.Moreover, the water-turning car has only been officially used for a short time, and it is unknown whether there are hidden dangers, so Tong Liyu decided to wait for a while to discuss this matter.

Zhang He was able to know about this, so Shi Qing naturally told him.After he urged the tenant farmers to plant the [-] acres of high-quality conventional rice, he was busy with business for a long time, and now he had time to invite her to Sun Ning Zhengdian for a drink.

Zhang He was also looking for a buyer for his eggplants, although the main store of Zhangjiayuanzi also sent someone over to reserve some white-skinned eggplants.But since the white-skinned eggplants appeared, purple eggplants seemed to be looked down upon. Zhang He had to find the nearest Sun Ningzheng store, because she remembered that although Sun Ningzheng store had a lot of vegetables, it didn't have eggplants.

Naturally, there are eggplant growers closer to Sun Ning's main store than her. If she wants to get a piece of the action, she will naturally have to take the initiative.For this reason, when Shi Qing invited her, she naturally went there happily.

After Li Qinggui came back, he only heard about the reputation of Sun Ningzheng Store but never had the opportunity to set foot there. He heard that Zhang He was going to Sun Ningzheng Store, so he went with her in the name of watching Zhang He for Xia Jiniang.

Fortunately, he knew that Shi Qing had an appointment with Zhang He, and it would be rude for him to go there rashly. When he arrived at Sun Ningzheng's store, he said, "Erlang, you can just go and drink, and leave the purple melon to me!"

Zhang He thought about Li Qinggui's eloquence and his deep understanding of it, so he left the matter to him for the time being.

Shi Qing didn't stay with Zhang He for too long this time. The last time he came to Sun Ningzheng Store, he was deeply impressed by the many charming and charming house prostitutes. This time, he planned to invite them to Efeng Mountain for an outing. .

Zhang He waited for him to leave, so he went to look for Li Qinggui.But she really didn't know where Li Qinggui was, so she could only walk around in the garden to see if she could meet him here.

In addition to the places where outsiders are not allowed to set foot, there are also many places to hang out in Sun Ning Zhengdian.And in spring and summer, the garden is in full bloom, and what attracts everyone's attention is not only these flowers, but also the many beautiful women passing through the flowers.

When Zhang He found Li Qinggui, he was surrounded by a group of people under a peach blossom tree.Zhang He went over and shouted: "Brother Qinggui!"

Li Qinggui hurriedly turned his head and said to Zhang He: "It's Erlang, have you finished drinking with Shi Xianwei?" He sniffed again, but he didn't smell too strong alcohol on Zhang He's body, obviously he didn't drink much.

Zhang He was a little embarrassed by his actions, quickly took two steps back, and asked, "Well, brother Qinggui, have you talked to the shopkeeper?"

Li Qinggui said with a smile: "As soon as I go out, it won't be a problem! It's the same as the price given to Zhangjiayuanzi's main store, and he will send someone to pick it up."

Zhang He nodded, and asked again: "Then what is Brother Qinggui doing?" She looked towards the peach blossom tree, but the tree was blocked by many people, and she didn't know what it was like.

"I'm watching the young lady fighting tea in this shop." Li Qinggui said.

Zhang He said: "The tea fight is worth so many people competing to watch?"

"The tea fight is naturally not enough for everyone to wait and see, but the tea fight among many beautiful ladies is worth watching!" Li Qinggui said with a smile. Fighting with each other is more interesting.

"What kind of fighting method?" Zhang He also became a little interested and asked.

There are three kinds of content in the tea fight, one is the tea fight, and the winner is determined by the color of the soup and water marks; For the tea play, when the tea soup is poured into the tea cup, the soup flower can present a magnificent and changeable scene, which cannot be done without superb tea making skills.

"Their teas all come from the same family. They don't compete with tea products, so they use tea-making skills to determine the outcome. Therefore, it is a tea play. The famous Confucian Fangzheng commented."

Just as he was talking, he heard a refined voice comment: "Miss Jiang Nu's tea soup soup flower can't be bitten, it's a pity!"

Some of the onlookers made regretful voices, and they made way for the defeated house prostitute to come out.

Zhang He and Li Qinggui happened to be on this road. Just as they were about to step aside, they saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young girl walk out of the path in a bit of disappointment. The moment she raised her eyes, she met Zhang He's gaze, and she was immediately stunned. Living.After a while, she avoided Zhang He's sight in a panic, and was about to leave.

Li Qinggui didn't know why the girl's expression changed so quickly when she saw them, he thought about it for a while, and found that the girl's eyes just now fell on Zhang He, and he didn't know what it was like.He asked Zhang He, "Erlang, are you also carrying your cousin behind your back..."

Zhang He didn't want to suffer unfair injustice, so he quickly defended himself: "I have never done anything to offend Ji Niang, don't talk nonsense."

The girl retracted her leaving foot, and she secretly looked at Zhang He. The latter felt uncomfortable being watched, and turned his head to look at her for a while.The girl avoided her sight again in a panic, but she never left.

Zhang He was a little confused, she had no impression of this girl, but she looked at herself with scrutiny, could it be someone she knew?My heart skipped a beat, if the girl asked and she couldn't recognize anyone, wouldn't it be suspicious?

But Li Qinggui thought to himself, if Zhang He had never had sex behind Xia Jiniang's back, why would this prostitute have such an expression?He opened his mouth and asked, "May I ask Miss Jiang Nu?"

The girl seemed to be accustomed to the title "Miss", and she didn't think it was an insult. She nodded and said, "Do you know me as a slave?"

Zhang He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the girl didn't know the original body!

Li Qinggui said with a smile: "It's a pity that Miss Jiang Nu lost to Miss Xu Xiangxiang in the Chabaixi."

Mentioning that he lost the tea fight, Jiang Nu's face showed a flash of disappointment again.Seeing that she was still young, Li Qinggui naturally lacked experience.She was originally a girl with a lively temperament, she valued winning and losing very much, and she still couldn't learn to restrain her disappointed expression when she lost.

"Slave has only a short time to learn art, and it is normal for her to lose before she has mastered her skills." Jiang Nu said, she did not hide her youthful arrogance, pointing out that she would lose because she had not studied art for as long as Xu Xiangxiang.

Zhang He and Li Qinggui couldn't deny that Jiang Nu's words and deeds didn't seem to come from a family who studied Zaju and Sanqu, and her face and figure must be the reason why she was recruited by Sun Ning Zhengdian.

If it hadn't been deliberately taught since childhood, it would be difficult for a woman from an ordinary family to learn superb tea-making skills in a short period of time.However, Sun Ning's main store has given the domestic prostitutes such an opportunity, as long as they study hard, they can make excellent brews in time.

Li Qinggui wanted to talk again, Zhang He asked in a low voice: "Brother Qinggui, where is Miss Shi from the main shop of Zhangjiayuanzi?" She hadn't forgotten that Li Qinggui had a crush on the girl who talked about history at the beginning, and she would rather not listen to Aunt Li because of her. If you go home and get married.

Li Qinggui was stunned for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Why did Erlang think I agreed to my mother to stay at home? She was bought by a rich businessman from Jiangdong."

"Bought it?"

Li Qinggui sighed: "Yes, no matter how good the history is, it is also for the sake of warmth and fame. She said it well, and when she was asked by a wealthy businessman in the main store of Zhangjiayuanzi, she found her father and spent more than 200 yuan to bring him back. She bought it."

Zhang He was silent for a moment, and didn't intend to ask about his feelings anymore.On the contrary, Jiang Nu heard their conversation, and finally mustered up the courage to ask Zhang He: "Second, sir, why don't you go to the elegant room to rest for a while?"

Li Qinggui felt a little depressed, Jiang Nu seemed to be paying attention to Zhang He from the beginning.Although he doesn't dress better than Zhang He, he must be more masculine than Zhang He, right?Could it be that these sisters like weak people like Zhang He?

Zhang He declined, "No, I came here to look for him. Now that he has been found, I won't stay any longer."

Li Qinggui laughed and said: "Miss Jiangnu, I must disappoint you. My cousin's husband already has a good wife in his family. Even if he wants to agree, I will not allow it."

Hearing this, Jiang Nu blinked at Li Qinggui again: "Your Majesty can't accept the invitation, what about you?"

How could Li Qinggui have been winked at by such a coquettish woman before, and he was immediately seduced. He smiled hurriedly and said, "Of course!" Let me tell you that I went to Mount Efeng for an outing. You don’t need to worry about me, I will go back on my own!”

"..." Zhang He wanted to dissuade him, but Li Qinggui hadn't married a wife yet, so she couldn't stop him no matter what he wanted, so she let him go, anyway, this Sun Ning Zhengdian was not a dangerous place.

After returning, Aunt Li really came to ask about Li Qinggui's whereabouts, so Zhang He had no choice but to tell her what Li Qinggui had taught her.But Li Qinggui didn't return home until dusk, his body smelled very strong of rouge and gouache, Aunt Li didn't ask him if he really went to Mount Efeng, thinking in her heart that it was time to marry him.

As the rainy season gradually passed, two swallows built a nest under the eaves in front of Zhang He's house.

The potatoes cultivated by Zhang He have reached maturity, and more than 20 seedlings have gradually grown, and the branches and leaves almost cover the field ridges.Its flowers have long withered and scattered, and the stems and leaves are gradually withering, and as far as the eye can see, it is a small piece of yellow-green.

She purposely brought Xia Ji Niang over, and said, "Ji Niang, let us see how it goes!"

She hasn't dug it up yet, so she doesn't know if the potatoes can form tubers, but she wants to share them with Xia Jiniang.

"Did Erlang have any ideas?" Xia Jiniang asked.

"It's also my first time planting, so I don't know if the planting method is correct." Zhang He said vaguely.

She grabbed a stem and leaf on the edge of the field ridge and pulled it hard, the soil was slightly loosened, and a smear of yellow was exposed on the ground.Xia Jiniang looked at the yellow color, and for some reason, she lifted it up with the pulling of the stems and leaves, and her heart became more and more looking forward to it.

Zhang He uprooted a stem and leaf, and saw six fist-sized, irregularly growing potatoes hanging from the root, and one in the pit was torn off the root and remained in the soil.

Zhang He picked up the potato and weighed it in her hands. Finally, she exclaimed excitedly: "Ji Niang, look, it's grown!"

When Qiu San told her that the car was overturned by water, she had never been so excited, but it was just a small potato, which made her dance and dance, like a child getting candy, pure and innocent, showing the tenderness of a girl .

Xia Jiniang never understood Zhang He's mood, but was infected by her joy, and a smile bloomed on her face: "Well, I have grown up, and Erlang's hard work has not been in vain."

Zhang He handed the potatoes to Xia Jiniang, and said, "Look, Niang, one potato can grow several plants, and one plant can grow seven or eight, that is, one potato can grow more than 20 potatoes. , this thing is used to satisfy the hunger, isn't it wonderful?!"

Xia Jiniang didn't expect that Zhang He's first thought of growing potatoes was this. She thought Zhang He was just proud of growing fresh crops, but she didn't expect that she thought farther than anyone else.Zhang He seemed to be taller in her heart.

"Let's go back and try how it tastes!" Zhang He naturally knows how it tastes, but since the first time he discovered potatoes, he has only tested poultry to see if it is poisonous, but has not let anyone taste it.She believes that potatoes carefully grown in this natural and pollution-free environment should taste good.

"How to try?" Xia Jiniang was both curious and expectant.

Zhang He pretended to think, and asked, "How are taro eaten?"

"It can be steamed, or burned for meat soup, or dried in the sun, and it can be eaten in the next year after being stored."

"Then steam it, but I'm afraid it's hard to cook such a big piece."

Xia Jiniang smiled slightly: "I can cook now."
