Heavenly garden farmer

After returning from the Bird Clan, Zheng Yunan found that Mingyue and Qingfeng hadn't been idle for the past few days, so they picked all the ripe fruits from Longevity Mountain and stored them neatly in the cellar.

Because Kong Xuan, who consumes the most food at home, is away these few days, there are a lot of fruits in the cellar. Fortunately, Mingyue and Qingfeng have their own secret recipes for storing food, so that these fruits are as fresh as they were just picked.

There are a lot of fruits in this season, cherries, strawberries, grapes in the yard, plums, loquats, etc., have gradually matured, not only Zheng Yunan's farm, but even the whole Xishui Village is full of various fruit fragrances .

There are also several tall wild mulberry trees growing behind the house of Zheng Yunan's farm. The mulberries are also ripe this season, and the mature mulberries will fall from the trees with a slight shake. They can harvest several baskets every day. .

Kong Xuan's favorite fruit is mulberry, which can be eaten after being filtered with clean water. It has neither core nor skin, and it tastes very satisfying.

Kong Xuan monopolized a large basket of mulberries and sat in the yard eating them very intently. Abu also squeezed a large cup of mulberry juice for him. The one big and one small sat in the yard and ate their own. They looked very much like two A rare and well-behaved bear child.

Zheng Yunan, on the other hand, brought Mingyue and Qingfeng to cook jam in the kitchen.Mingyue and Qingfeng are in charge of removing the core, peeling and cutting the fruits, and Zheng Yunan is in charge of boiling them into jam.

The cooking process is actually very simple. Pour the fruit and a small amount of water into the pot, then add an appropriate amount of granulated sugar or rock sugar according to your own taste, then boil it over a high heat, and simmer it until it becomes sticky. It just needs to be constantly stirred and scooped off the froth during the cooking process, so it is a very grueling job.

When the jam was about to come out of the pan, Zheng Yunan added some lemon juice into it, stirred it and let it cool for a while before pouring it into the prepared glass bottle.

When Zheng Yunan cooked the first pot of cherry sauce, the rich and sweet smell had already filled the entire farm. Kong Xuan and Abu, who were still eating mulberries in the yard, had sneaked into the kitchen at some point.

"Is it ready?" Kong Xuan couldn't bear it any longer, and stretched out his head to check.

Zheng Yunan turned his head to look, and immediately couldn't help bursting out laughing, only to see that Kong Xuan's lips turned black and purple as if poisoned, and when he opened his mouth, his teeth and tongue coating were also deeply purple, looking very funny.However, he still has a straight face, with a cold and cold expression on his face, but his greedy eyes have been exposed by his eager eyes, and even Mingyue Qingfeng next to him can't help but turn his back and start giggling .

As for A Bu, it is even more funny, its whole body has turned purple, completely changed from a white radish to a purple radish, only the light green eyeballs have become the lightest color on its body, turning around to look at it. In the pot, even the saliva that flowed out was purple.

Zheng Yunan suppressed a smile while comforting the two foodies: "Okay, okay, let's eat after a while."

"I'm not afraid of being scalded." Kong Xuan said, he had already consciously fetched a big bowl, and handed it to Zheng Yunan.

Zheng Yunan had no choice but to serve him a large bowl, and Abu also looked impatient, so Zheng Yunan filled another bowl for Abu, diluted it with water and brought it to the yard .

Throughout the whole day, Zheng Yunan's farm was filled with various sweet smells, and even they themselves became in a much better mood because of this smell.

At night, Zheng Yunan's refrigerator was already full of various jams. Fortunately, he had replaced it with an oversized refrigerator, otherwise he might not be able to satisfy these foodies.

During dinner, Zheng Yunan discussed with Kong Xuan, and conveniently picked up a piece of braised pork ribs for him: "Tomorrow I'm going to the city to buy something, do you want to go together?"

Before Kong Xuan could answer, he felt that something was wrong. Since Kong Xuan changed back to human form, he had never picked up food for him. Even when he was still in peacock form, he used chopsticks alone to pick up food for him. Never use chopsticks that you have eaten.

But maybe it's because his mood has changed a few days ago, he treats Kong Xuan a little closer than before, just now he used the chopsticks he had eaten to pick up a piece of meat for him without thinking.

Zheng Yunan was a little embarrassed, worried that Kong Xuan would dislike him, and was about to offer him another bowl of rice, but saw that Kong Xuan had already picked up the piece of braised pork ribs and ate it very naturally.

"I'll go with you and help you drive." Kong Xuan replied after eating, and at the same time, he also picked up a chopstick of shredded yam for Zheng Yunan.

Seeing the extra dishes in his bowl, Zheng Yunan couldn't help lowering his head and snickering.Well, maybe I tasted a lot of jam just now, why is my mouth still full of sweetness now?

But Mingyue and Qingfeng next to them suddenly felt that they might have smelled too much lemon juice just now, otherwise, why would the atmosphere feel weird, these two dishes are clearly in front of the two of you, do you need to hold them back and forth like this?

After a meal with a strange atmosphere, Zheng Yunan and Kong Xuan set off to go shopping in the city together. This time there were more things to buy, and there were also big ones, so the two of them drove Zheng Yunan's car. That SUV went.

On the way back, Zheng Yunan suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Kong Xuan, do you like to drink? There are so many fruits in the house, you can make some fruit wine and save it for drinking slowly."

Kong Xuan didn't have much preference for drinking, but seeing Zheng Yunan's excited look, he nodded too.

When he was about to leave the city, Kong Xuan suddenly thought of something, and said to Zheng Yunan: "You go back by yourself first, I have something to do, so I will go back later."

"Do you need me to pick you up?" The two of them only drove one car when they went out today. Although Kong Xuan said that flying is much faster than driving, but there are so many people in this urban area, it is still a bit inconvenient.

Kong Xuan shook his head: "No, I can go back by myself."

Hearing what Kong Xuan said, Zheng Yunan stopped by the side of the road and put him down, and then drove back with his things.

After arriving home, it was quite early, Zheng Yunan thought for a while, then took out the Jiusuihe that the birds had sent earlier, and followed the method Jingwei taught last time, first used the bottle of Jiuyan well water to wash The seeds were soaked once.

He found a bowl, and when he poured well water into that bowl, he realized that this small crystal bottle had a very large capacity inside. He poured more than half of the bowl of water out, and the water volume in the crystal bottle still did not drop. .

No wonder Jingwei said that this bottle of water is enough for them to grow Jiusuihe. It seems that this crystal bottle, like the small cloth bag for fruit seedlings given to him by Monkey King, used space magic.

According to what Jingwei said, these Jiusuihes had to be soaked in the water of Jiuyan Well overnight, and by tomorrow, they could find a plot of land to plant them.

After soaking the Jiusuihe seeds, Zheng Yunan saw that Kong Xuan hadn't come back yet, so he decided to learn how to make cakes first.The last time he went to the city with Kong Xuan, he happened to pass by a cake shop, and saw Kong Xuan staring intently at the cakes in the shop, his eyeballs wanted to stick to it.

Kong Xuan has always been fond of sweet and spicy, and the taste is relatively strong, so desserts such as cakes are also very popular with him, but it is not easy for them to go to the city, so this time Zheng Yunan simply bought an oven and tools for convenience. Prepare pastries for them at home anytime.

Because it was his first attempt, Zheng Yunan only made relatively simple egg tarts and small cakes, and then spread them with the jam he cooked in the morning, which would also have a special taste.

When Kong Xuan came back, a new batch of egg tarts was just out of the pan. The golden and crispy egg tarts were still steaming. The jam looks so mouth-watering.

Zheng Yunan was about to invite Mingyue and Qingfeng to come and try it first, when he saw Kong Xuan pushing the door in, so he immediately turned to bring the egg tart to Kong Xuan, and asked him to taste it first.

Kong Xuan didn't come back alone, he was actually followed by Xuan Xun who came uninvited last time, but Xun Xun's whole body revealed a sense of humiliation of being forced into prostitution, obviously he didn't come here voluntarily.

When Zheng Yunan's egg tart was served in front of Kong Xuan, the fragrance also floated to Xuanxuan, causing his drooping head to suddenly lift up, his eyes lit up, and he sucked his nose and swallowed at the same time.

It's a pity that no matter how greedy he is, he doesn't have his share of this egg tart, he can only watch helplessly as Zheng Yunan and the others share the plate of egg tarts and eat them.

Zheng Yunan and the others were all sitting around the stone table, while Xuanxuan stood aside in a very restrained manner. Zheng Yunan took a bite of the egg tart, feeling the tempting taste, and asked Kong Xuan: "What do you want?" How did you bring him back?"

Although this ancestral twig is still hanging around his neck, Zheng Yunan really doesn't like him, so he doesn't plan to entertain him.

Kong Xuan was almost taking care of the egg tarts on the table one by one. This egg tart was a mixture of the rich aroma of eggs and the freshness of jam. He liked it very much, so he didn't have time to care about Xuan who was left on the sidelines: "Don't worry about him, eat first When it's over, let him stand aside."

Seeing the delicious food right in front of your eyes, while others are still enjoying it, but you can only watch it helplessly, this feeling is quite unbearable.It's a pity that Xuanxuan's skills are not as good as others, and he is not Kong Xuan's opponent at all, so he can only suffer.

Even Ah Bu, who cannot eat solid food, has milk prepared by Zheng Yunan.

Knowing that Zheng Yunan had eaten several times, he was really overwhelmed. He looked at the pitiful Xuanxuan beside him, and he suddenly said: "By the way, when I tried to make the first batch just now, I didn't control the heat properly. A batch failed, how about I take it out for you to eat?"

You have been in human society all year round. With his ability to speculate and specialize, he can be regarded as a respectable figure in human society. Now when asked if he wants to eat food that others despise, he doesn't even complain. dare not have.

Sniffing the scent that had been sticking into his nose, Xuan Xuan nodded towards Zheng Yunan, and by the way carefully looked at Kong Xuan, lest the adult would not allow him to eat.

Fortunately, Kong Xuan was still stuck with the egg tart in front of him, so he had no time to care about him.

The plate of egg tarts brought out by Zheng Yunan was already cold because it had been put out for a while, and because the heat was not controlled properly, it was already a little burnt.Kong Xuan glanced at him when he came out, and then ignored him completely disinterestedly, so all the egg tarts fell into the belly of the slut.

When Kong Xuan finished his last bite, the slut who had been watching him secretly stuffed the egg tart into his mouth immediately, not daring to eat any more, so he sat upright and waited for Kong Xuan's orders.

After Kong Xuan wiped his mouth, he drank another glass of hydrolysis solution, and then said slowly, "I heard that your Xuanxian clan is good at brewing wine. There has always been a secret recipe for brewing that has been passed down from generation to generation?"

When Zheng Yunan heard Kong Xuan's words, he realized that he had got off the car halfway just now, because he heard that he wanted to make wine, so he went to find this slut.

The Huan family lived in Zhaoyao Mountain for generations, and their entire group was addicted to alcohol, so they gradually developed their own unique secret recipe for wine making, and because their people also like to eat fruits, the fruit wine they brewed is even more delicious. It can be called a must.In the ancient times, the wine brewed by Xuan was very popular with those monks and immortals.And this scorpion is also in the wine making business in human society, which is why he wanted to buy the fruits from Zheng Yunan's Longevity Mountain last time.

It's just that, although this slut is terrified of Kong Xuan, the secret recipe for wine making can be said to be his entire wealth, so how can he easily take it out: "Well, if Mr. Kong Xuan wants to drink , my winery can provide you with unlimited supply all year round, and as long as you give an order, I promise to deliver it to you immediately no matter what time."

Kong Xuan raised his eyes and glanced at Xuanxuan expressionlessly: "But I don't need your wine, I just want your recipe."

Although Kong Xuan's glance was just a light glance, the slut trembled in fright, and almost showed his prototype. He was unsteady, and he simply fell to the ground with a plop: "Master Kong Xuan, this formula is My wealth and life, if you take away my formula, then I will not be able to live."

Kong Xuan said coldly: "So, you think that if you disobey me, you can leave here alive?"

Kong Xuan came from the prehistoric era when the weak were prey to the strong. He never talked about public order and good customs, and he didn't directly kill the scorpion and take away his wine-making formula. It can already be described as showing mercy.

Kong Xuan's words made Xuanxuan fully realize what kind of person he was facing. At that time, he was able to reach the top step by step. Who didn't have blood on his hands, such as them, a race with no ability? Well, it's just a matter of waving a race to be wiped out by them casually.

Thinking of this, Su Xuan immediately took out the brewing formula that he kept close to him with trepidation, for fear that his slow movements would make Kong Xuan unhappy.

Zheng Yunan didn't know what this slut was imagining, his face was already pale with fright.He sighed and took the recipe, took out his phone and took a picture page by page, and then returned the recipe to Xuan.

The scorpion didn't expect that the recipe could be returned to her, so she was a little stunned, staring blankly at Zheng Yunan and forgot to reach out to take it.

Zheng Yunan sighed, put the formula back on the body, and then said: "Don't worry, I just want this formula to try to brew some wine by myself, and it will not affect your business. You can brew your wine as usual in the future." , don't care about our farm.

After listening to Zheng Yunan's words, it seemed as if a big deal fell from the sky and hit him on the head, and he even showed a very surprised expression, which made Zheng Yunan very helpless: These ancient beasts lived for so many years in vain, why? It feels like there is only one tendon in his head, but he thought this slut was very cunning before.

Holding the formula that was lost and recovered, the scorpion nearly cried out of excitement. After all, the longer they live, the worse their memory will be. The wine making formula is so complicated that he can't remember it at all. If Zheng Yunan doesn't return it to him, it will Things can be lost in his hands.

When Xuanxuan left, he thanked Kong Xuan and Zheng Yunan a lot, and even gave Zheng Yunan a business card, so that he could come to him anytime he encountered any problems in the wine making process.

After Zheng Yunan took the business card, he suddenly said: "By the way, next year our fruit production on Longevity Hill will probably double several times. If you still have demand by then, I hope we can cooperate happily then."

Hearing this, Xuanxuan was so excited that he almost tripped over the threshold when he went out. His winemaking formula has very high requirements on the raw materials of fruit wine. He had been working with the monkey spirits from Huaguo Mountain before. Once, when drinking with Monkey Spirit, he got too drunk and went crazy and offended them, which made them no longer willing to sell fruit to him. He didn't have enough raw materials, and the production of fruit wine in the winery has been cut by more than half this year.

The reason why he took the risk to steal fruit from Longevity Hill was because he was desperate.Now that he heard that Zheng Yunan intends to cooperate with him next year, how could he not be happy, wishing he could go back and drink a tank of wine to celebrate.

After seeing off Xuanxuan, Zheng Yunan went back to the room and began to think about the exotic flowers and plants in his hands now, except for the misty branches that had no idea at all, he now still has Jiusuihe and Zhemu in his hand , if he can successfully plant these two, then his task of collecting exotic herbs from mountains and seas will go a step further, but he doesn't know when the task of rebuilding Wuzhuang Temple will make new progress.

Because there were too many things on his mind, Zheng Yunan woke up before dawn the next day, and when he woke up, he didn't even care about brushing his teeth and washing his face, so he went to look at the Jiusuihe seeds he soaked the day before up.

The jam is really delicious. I used to buy several catties of strawberries and made strawberry jam. I could finish it all in one meal. Fortunately, I was still young at that time, so I didn’t have to worry about gaining weight.

Then when I was a child and my family lived in the countryside, there was a huge mulberry tree in front of our house. Every time my dad hung an umbrella upside down on the tree, he could shake down a lot of mulberries at a time. After eating it, he was super satisfied, and Will not eat too much toothache or get angry like other fruits
