Chapter 67

"Mr. Lu?"

Hong Mingzhao didn't answer for a long time after asking, but he saw people looking at him, and looked at his sister sideways, and saw that she was also looking at the small account room.

Looking away, Lu Tang nodded slightly: "I'm from Suizhou."

"Suizhou?" Hong Mingzhao pondered for a moment, then looked at Xi'er beside him, "I remember that Suizhou is my aunt's hometown, right?"

"Yes." Hong Xi'er stroked her hair in a bun: "She, she is a distant relative of my natal family, so she should be considered a cousin."

Hong Mingzhao nodded when he heard the words, and was kind to Lu Tangyi again, "So it's my cousin."

Lu Tangyi kept his standing posture unchanged, smiling at Hong Mingzhao obediently, Wang Qi looked at her well-behaved appearance and couldn't help but hold back his laughter, why did he look like a silly son-in-law who just arrived.

"Brother, where did you come back from?" Hong Xi'er diverted from the side, saving Xiao Lu's anxiety and embarrassment at this time.Lu Tang heaved a sigh of relief, sat down and glared at Wang Qi who was throwing eyes at her, making you gloat.

"Over the years, I have traveled to many places. Before I came back, I lived in Mozhou for a while, but later..." Hong Mingzhao paused, and then sighed: "Oh, we have been to so many places, and we are still happy to find out The town is the most peaceful and happy.”

When Lu Tangyi heard about Mo Zhou, his heart tightened. Seeing Brother Hong's hesitant words, it seemed that Mo Zhou was not good. "From what Brother Hong just said, Mo Zhou doesn't seem to be safe?"

After she finished asking, seeing Hong Mingzhao looking at her, she added: "Oh, I also went to Mozhou a few years ago, and it seems to be pretty good there."

"The land near the barbarians in Mozhou has been an important place for military strategists since ancient times. A few years ago, when the Six Princes were stationed, foreigners did not dare to invade, but the people lived a happy life for a few years." At this point, Hong Mingzhao shook his head: "Oh, now The current situation is turbulent, and there are constant military chaos and banditry in the frontier fortresses such as Mozhou, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to the center."

The hands under the table couldn't help tightening. Lu Tang squeezed his fingers, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, and said: "Yes, Xing, the people are suffering, and death, the people are suffering."

Hearing her words, Hong Mingzhao wanted to have a deeper conversation with others. Hong Xi'er stopped him and said, "Brother, you have been working so hard, you should take a rest first. I will clean up our house tomorrow, and you can go and pick up your sister-in-law, Qing'er." , our family can also be reunited."

Hong Mingzhao nodded in response: "Okay, I will listen to you."

Everyone dispersed, Hong Xi'er took one last look at Lu Tangyi who was missing her, and opened her mouth, but didn't stop her.

There was nothing to say all night, until the next day, Hong Mingzhao got up early and went down to the lobby to find that Hong Xier was already waiting downstairs.

"Xi'er, why did you wake up so early?"

"Wait for you to eat breakfast together, big brother, you got up early." Hong Mingzhao walked up to her, and saw that there was a bag on the stool next to her, "I'm going to pick up your sister-in-law and niece later, so I thought about getting up early. "

"It's just right." Hong Xi'er said and passed the bag: "There are money, food and clothes in it. When you go to Pennsylvania, you can buy more gifts for the Yue family. My sister-in-law who hasn't returned home for so many years must be very worried. Say something nice to him, the Yue family. Just listen to what you say, and have a better attitude."

"My third mother has really grown up." Hong Mingzhao smiled and couldn't help sighing. Xiao Xi'er was the most carefree in the past, but now she is so considerate.

After breakfast, Hong Mingzhao set off for Pennsylvania to pick up his wife and daughter. Although Pennsylvania is not far away, it takes three to five days to go back and forth.

Going out from the back door of the inn, you can see another house by the Qingquan River, that house is next to the Huanxi Inn, this is the Hong family's house, Hong Xi'er grew up here, but she was the only one left in the family , she moved to the inner hall of the inn, redecorated her grandfather's house and lived there.

The elder brother wanted to take the family back, so the house would no longer need to be left empty. On the same day, Hong Xier invited two handymen to clean the house from inside to outside, and also invited carpenters and bricklayers to repair it, and waited for her brother and sister-in-law to return. live well.

She was extremely busy on this side, and Lu Tang was also very busy on that side.

She promised to teach the Fang family brothers and sisters the recipe of fertilizer and the method of deworming, so she got up early that morning, mixed the rotten vegetables, leaves, fruit peels and chicken feathers and duck blood in sister Yu's back kitchen. He went into the small jar, took a new jar, and began to put broken bones, bean powder, rice water, hemp residue, etc. in it. The Yu family siblings were puzzled by each of them, "Brother Tang, what are you doing?" What? We have swill collectors here."

Lu Tang smiled and said, "This is a treasure for me. It's a pity that there is no solvent here. Otherwise, if you add ferrous sulfate, the fat will disappear."

"What the hell?"

"It's okay, go do your work."

After sealing a few small jars, she began to prepare things for deworming. There were no common ingredients now, but fortunately, there was a female doctor like Hong Xier at home, who let her find a dose of moss that could be substituted. It is very easy to get the plant ash. If it is not that people nowadays do not understand this, it is estimated that this method has been spread in the fields of the Li Dynasty.

For three days in a row, shopkeeper Zhang Luo cleaned up the old house, accountant Lu was busy with his Xingye farming, Wang Qi was in charge of Zhang Luo in the inn, and sister Yu was in charge of the kitchen.

"Phosphate fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, plant ash, watermelon seeds, peanuts..."

Three days later in the early morning, Lu Tang got up early this morning, and after loading the things she had made in the past few days into the donkey cart, she counted them one by one.

"Ah Tang, how do you know all of this?" Hong Xi'er really couldn't figure it out, Lu Tangyi didn't come from a farming family, and if it was said that the family had land property, it would be too profound for her to know. But I haven't seen any young master or lady from a landlord's family who would go to the fields to fertilize and eliminate insects in person. Besides, Qiniang's martial arts and temperament, she doesn't look like a landlord's family.

"I've liked these since I was a child. I studied them myself. You also know that I like to eat and drink. The taste of the dishes will be better if the ingredients are good." After decorating the things, Lu Tang smiled brightly at Hong Xi'er: "I'll be back in the evening , leave me something to eat."

Hong Xi'er gave her a smirk, and raised her fingertips to touch her forehead: "Little greedy cat."

"Hey, I'm leaving then."

"Hey, wait a minute." Calling someone to stop, Xi'er went over to straighten Litang's sleeves which had just been turned up: "I've gone, Brother Shi, they will definitely keep you for dinner, don't drink too much, come back earlier."

"Okay, don't worry."

Driving into the donkey cart, Tang turned his head and waved to Xi'er, and headed towards Ping'an Village in the warm morning sun.

The donkey cart is no better than the horse cart, although she left earlier, it was almost noon when she arrived at Ping'an Village.

Fang Sibin had been waiting at the entrance of the village a long time ago. As soon as Lu Tangyi's donkey cart appeared, he greeted him: "Brother Tangyi, you are here."

"I've been waiting for a long time." Lu Tang smiled, and pointed the little whip behind him: "All the good things are here."

Fang Nianhe was waiting to be bored and was standing at the gate of the courtyard watering her brother's small flower bed. She woke up early in the morning and waited for no one to come. She was about to complain when she saw a donkey cart approaching from afar.

"Miss He'er, we meet again."

Fang Nianhe ran for two steps and then stopped, then raised his head, "You came so late, my brother has been waiting for you all morning."

"Isn't the road difficult to walk? It's my first time here, so I won't be so late after I get used to it." Lu Tang jumped out of the car, and Liang Shi and Sun Pingniang came out to welcome him: "Brother Tang Have you eaten? The house is ready, let's eat first."

"There's no rush to eat, I'll tell you what these things are and how to use them first, Brother Shi, Ping Niang, you come here together."

Several people gathered at Fang's house. Lu Tang took a look around and found that Fang's house was much larger than Liang Shi's house, and it was also very clean and tidy. Unlike ordinary farmers' houses that raise chickens and pigs, Fang's house has water and grass. It adds a bit of elegance to this small courtyard.

"Brother Siyun, doesn't your family raise poultry?"

"The ones raised, but they are all in the backyard. I found a place farthest away from people and built a small shed alone."

Lu Tang nodded, that's good, without these poultry and livestock, some ingredients are still missing.

She placed the jars and jars she had brought on the ground of the big house, and took out a few pieces of paper from her arms, "Here are the fertilizers and pesticides and how to make the crops harvest and grow well. On the jars underground They are marked with what is what, I have made some of each for you, and these will take effect within a month at the latest, you can retting them for a while, and wait until the next planting season to use them.”

Liang Shi didn't know many words, and he struggled to read one prescription, and Fang Siyun on the other side needless to say, but Lu Tang never thought that Fang Nianhe would be so interested in farming.

"Interesting, this is a good idea, why didn't I think of it!" Flicking the paper in his hand, Fang Nianhe narrowed his eyes slightly, "Grass wood ash, this is also interesting, what's the reason?"

Lu Tang thought about it for a while, and said that it is rich in phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur. People probably think they are abnormal. How can we popularize modern knowledge with ancient common sense?

"You think, what is the principle of plant ash? It is the product of burning the dead leaves of firewood. It itself is the powder of plants. The dead grass is not withered from the beginning, right? It must be nutritious, and nutrition is, that is, it can nourish A kind of replenishment. But you can’t directly sprinkle the leaves on the field, so you have to burn them and add them to the soil, which will be more conducive to the absorption of the land. Isn’t there such a poem, Luohong is not a ruthless thing, it turns into spring mud to protect Flowers." The people who walked around the room stopped, it seems that this poem has not been written yet, it will take hundreds of years, right?

"Brother Tang is so talented. Luohong is not a ruthless thing. It turns into spring mud to protect flowers." Fang Siyun clapped his hands and couldn't help admiring, and couldn't help but look at Lu Tang again.Looking at the person who was seriously discussing with his sister, he couldn't help but feel moved. He remembered that the other party said that he was not married yet.

As soon as Lu Tang taught them how to use the fertilizer, he specifically told Liang Shi how to cultivate the raw materials needed for the dishes that are often sold in inns and the dishes she plans to promote next.

"You use this altar fertilizer to irrigate first, and use plant ash as top dressing. Remember the time interval, and the seeds must not be damp and heat-insulated."

Liang Shi scratched his head and responded one by one. Lu Tang was a little worried and wanted to ask the Fang family brothers and sisters to help him more, but Ping Niang beside him said: "Brother Tang, don't worry, I have written down everything. , if I don’t understand, I will come to He’er for help.”

When Lu Tang looked at her, Pingniang's complexion was obviously much better than before, and she understood it much faster than Liang Shi, who was a little dazed, when listening to her talk, "Okay, Pingniang, look at the smile on your face now. There are too many."

Pingniang lowered her head slightly, and smiled lightly: "I am very content to live the life I have now." After finishing speaking, she sighed lightly: "Brother Tang hasn't eaten yet, I have prepared something to eat, just in time for Brother Heer Let's all come to my house for dinner."

Liang Shi followed hurriedly: "That's right, the food and drink are all ready, let's come together."

As soon as Lu Tang didn't refuse, the brothers and sisters of the Fang family went to the Liang family together.She remembered what Hong Xier had said, but fortunately, Liang Shi didn't try to persuade her to drink too much, and only had a few drinks with Fang Siyun and the others.Halfway through the meal, everyone chatted more and more enthusiastically. Fang Siyun drank more than all of them. He looked at Lu Tang next to him and became more and more happy: "Brother Tang, I wonder if your family has engaged you?"

While gnawing on the corn, Lu Tang talked about what to do with the milk-flavored corn, and said, "No, my parents have passed away, and I am the only one at home."

"That's just right." Fang Siyun slapped her on the shoulder, and Lu Tang turned to look at him. Maybe it was because of the alcohol, Fang Siyun looked very excited, and before she asked, he heard: "My family My little sister is still in her boudoir, and you just haven't married yet." Before he finished speaking, Fang Nianhe called out first: "Brother!" Glancing at Lu Tangyi next to him, Fang Nianhe frowned: "You I'm dizzy from drinking." No wonder his elder brother can't marry a wife at such an old age, he really has no sense at all, it was so obvious at the wedding banquet, why the only thing left in his ears is the sentence that Lu Tangyi is not married up.

Lu Tangyi didn't drink much alcohol at first, but now he was sobered up by these words, and he waved his hands again and again: "I'm alone, homeless, and I don't want to think about it now."

Fang Nianhe didn't have any idea at first, but when she saw her frightened like a tabby cat whose tail was trampled on, she couldn't help but twitch, hiss!How dare you despise this girl so much!

Fang Siyun was still waiting to talk, but Pingniang interrupted him: "Brother Yun, you can eat some ice powder, I learned this when I was in the inn, it's very good to cool off the heat."

After Fang Siyun was said so by everyone, he couldn't bring it up again, so he went down the donkey to eat by himself.

When the meal was over, Lu Tang made a few simple remarks before returning home: "I'll come to see you when the fertilizer is ready next month when you are going to plant the seeds. If you have anything to do, you can come to the Huanxi Inn to find me."

Fang Liang and the two naturally agreed, but Miss He'er walked in the end and didn't speak, seeming to be a bit ignorant of her.Lu Tang thought it was because of the awkward marriage that Fang Siyun mentioned during the banquet, and she was about to leave without saying hello, but Ping Niang stepped forward at this time and walked to the donkey cart, "Tang brothers."

Seeing her hesitation, Lu Tang thought she had something to help, so he asked, "What's the matter? Do you need my help?"

Pingniang shook her head, thought for a while and hesitated: "Women and men are different after all. No matter how powerful a woman is, she also wants to have someone who knows what's cold and what's hot by her side, and she wants to have a good home to rely on." Lu Tang Yi was taken aback when he heard that, and looked at Pingniang, not understanding why such a sentence came out of nowhere, so he heard someone continue: "It's not easy being the shopkeeper for so many years, don't make her wait too long."

The author has something to say: I was too busy yesterday and didn't finish writing. I touched a fish code this morning and it came out.Okay, I'm going to eat melon
