Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

"It's similar to sour bamboo shoots."

After Lu Sheng packed the bamboo shoots, he brought half a bag of peppercorns.

"what is this?"

He Qin came over curiously and frowned slightly when he saw the contents in the bag, "Xiao Sheng, what are you doing with these peppers?"

"This is Zanthoxylum bungeanum, a kind of seasoning, which can increase the fragrance and remove the fishy smell."

Lu Sheng said, and handed the prickly ash to He Qin, "Take it back and let uncle try it, this is the recipe."

As she spoke, she took out another recipe and handed it over.

It was the first time He Qin saw someone eat this food, and it was also the first time he heard that this food had such a function.

Of course, he still believed in his little niece.

After all, Lu Sheng has always been reliable in everything he does, especially when it comes to eating.

As the biggest owner of the restaurant, she can't do anything that harms the guests.

After seeing off He Qin, Lu Sheng went to the vegetable field again.

Lan Yi has been building bamboo huts recently, not to mention, he has already built that bamboo hut in just a few days, and it is still a long row.

Lu Sheng went in and took a look, and found that there were still three rooms and one living room inside, with windows and doors, and they were well-made.

"Lan Yi, your craftsmanship is good!" She praised sincerely.

Unexpectedly, Lan Yi, who is always silent, is quite reliable when he does things seriously.

"generally."

After Lan Yi finished answering, he lowered his head and continued to peel bamboo.

Lu Sheng looked around and joked, "Lan Yi, why don't you get another kitchen, and we'll move in when the time comes, and it just so happened that the original house was demolished and rebuilt."

"Yes!"

Lan Yi nodded and accepted the order.

Lu Sheng froze for a moment, then smiled faintly.

She looked up at the vegetable garden and found that the vegetables were growing well.

The land was very fertile, and before she dug the land again, she specially burned some ears of rice and sprinkled the wood ash on the ground.

"What are those used for?"

Lan Yi asked, pointing to piles of small hills covered with tarpaulin not far away.

Lu Sheng looked over and said with a smile, "That's cow dung."

It was she who paid some money and asked everyone to help pick up the cow dung for planting sweet potatoes and purple potatoes.

Today, potato vines are still a while away from being suitable for planting, so she rots the cow dung and lets it ferment.

When the potato vines can be planted, the cow dung will be used in the ditch.

Hearing that it was cow dung, Lan Yi frowned in disgust.

"Don't despise it. You can't do without it when you grow delicious food in the future."

Hearing Lu Sheng's words, Lan Yi let out a soft snort, and bowed his head again to do his own thing.

Another half month passed in a blink of an eye.

Since the tomb-sweeping on the Qingming Festival, Lu Sheng has almost focused on the vegetable field.

Today is the day to plant red and purple potatoes. Lu Sheng specially selected three acres of sandy land to plant.

Over there, some people ridged the land, some fertilized it, and some planted it.

Lu Sheng asked the people in the village to help, and first showed them how to plant, and then let everyone plant after they learned it.

Because the smell of decomposed cow dung is not good, when everyone picks up the dung, they cover their noses with white cloth.

Lan Yi, who was also helping, was very clever, and directly blocked his sense of taste.

Therefore, when others vomited in distaste from time to time, he was the only one who was pouring dung on the ground expressionlessly.

They are all people with dexterous hands and feet, and they are particularly agile in their work.

With ten people, three mu of land can be planted in one day.

Seeing that there were still a few bundles of potato vines left, Lu Sheng hurriedly moved them back to a dark place and kept them for everyone to continue planting tomorrow.

The next day, everyone came over to plant again. Several large bundles of potato vines planted another acre, making a total of four acres of potato land.

Two acres of purple potatoes and two acres of sweet potatoes.

After planting, watering began again, and everyone went home after watering.

In order to better manage the vegetable field, Lu Sheng and Lan Yi teamed up to build a row of bamboo houses beside the vegetable field.

Lu Sheng also hired some people in the village who are more experienced in crops to manage the vegetable fields.

She invited a total of 20 people, each of whom was five taels of silver a month, with three meals, but had to live in the field at night.

At that time, many people from the village came to apply for the job.

But after understanding, Lu Sheng selected twenty hard-working, capable and honest people.

After the potato vines were cut, the Lu family's house was also torn down.

This time, she asked someone to build a yard with two entrances and two exits.

In this way, even if Master and the others come over in the future, they will have a place to live.

Thinking of Lu Zhou, Lu Sheng realized that he hadn't seen him for more than half a month, and he didn't know how he handled the matter of Xianjing brother and sister.

And Chu Sihan, since the last time, she also hasn't seen him for more than half a month.

He clearly said before that he would return to Huangyang Town after a few days, but there is no news yet.

I don't know if there is a new case in Linjiang Mansion.

Because the Lu family was building a house, they all moved to the vegetable field to live with everyone.

Lu Sheng propped his chin and sat outside the bamboo house, staring at the busy people in a daze.

Seeing that she seemed to be in a low mood, Lan Yi didn't bother her, but walked away from another direction.

Lu Sheng caught a glimpse of the corner of the blue clothes from the corner of his eye, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Blue clothes."

Lan Yi, who was planning to leave, paused, and he stepped back, looking at her expressionlessly: "Miss, please tell me something."

"Have you contacted Master recently?"

Some time ago, she frequently used Tongyinfu, and finally calmed down the turbulent Qi and blood in her body, so she didn't dare to use it lightly.

Lan Yi is Master's divine beast, so he should be able to contact Master at any time, right?

"Master is fine, he will be back soon."

After Lan Yi finished answering, he asked again: "Is there anything else the girl has to do?"

"Have!"

Lu Sheng's eyeballs wandered around twice, seeing that everyone was hard at work, putting up shelves for the tomatoes, and didn't notice this at all.

She whispered: "Lan Yi, I want to go to Linjiang Mansion tonight, can you take me there? It's like going there that night and coming back that night."

She just wanted to make sure that Chu Sihan was safe and sound.

Lan Yi nodded, "Yes."

Lu Sheng was overjoyed, "Then I will trouble you tonight."

If she didn't have the runes to travel through the void, she wouldn't bother Lan Yi either.

"To thank you for your help, tell me, what do you want to eat today, I'll make it for you."

Lan Yi has done such a big favor, no matter what, he has to be rewarded.

"Spicy chicken nuggets, chicken pot, duck with sour bamboo shoots, duck blood."

Lan Yi read out a series of chicken and duck dishes.

"Duck blood?" Are you sure it's not a blood duck?

She made a blood duck for everyone some time ago, and found that the blue clothes ate the fastest.

I don't know why, but Lanyi also eats other things, but he especially likes to eat chicken and duck.

Lan Yi said: "That's what the girl did last time. She poured duck blood into the duck and fried it."

It really is a blood duck.

"Okay, how about eating spicy fried chicken nuggets and blood duck at noon, and chicken pot and sour bamboo shoot duck at night?"

Lan Yi must be happy to eat so much chicken and duck at one time, but everyone wants to eat it. If you eat so much chicken and duck in one meal, you may get tired.

"The girl has the final say."

After Lan Yi finished speaking, he went back to work with a hoe on his shoulder.

Looking at the large open space left, Lu Sheng thought of Hades again.

I don't know if he has arrived in modern times, and if I asked him to help buy things, I don't know if I have bought them all.

If those things are used here, she will definitely make a lot of money.

She glanced at the sky. It was about seven or eight o'clock at the moment. She got up and took the vegetable basket, ready to go shopping.

On the way to buy vegetables, when she passed by Lu's house, she went in and took a look at those watermelons.

I just applied fertilizer the day before yesterday, and the growth turned out to be very good, and every tree is growing very well.

I don't know where Master got the watermelon seeds, but the survival rate is so high.

In more than 20 days, the vines have grown to a length of about 30 to 40 centimeters.

She still has extra seeds in her hand, and it is only the end of April, so she should still be able to plant them.

Anyway, there is still a lot of open space in the vegetable field, and the remaining plants are enough to plant five or six acres.

"Miss Lu, what are you growing in your shed?"

The person who built the house looked at the shed and was very curious.

Lu Sheng smiled faintly, "I don't know, I just bought the seeds casually, and tried it according to the seller's planting method, but I didn't expect it to survive."

The man nodded, "I see. I said why haven't I seen such a thing before."

Lu Sheng smiled, greeted everyone, and went shopping.

Lu Sheng handed over the food on the building side to Aunt Yu and Mrs. Chen, so after everyone got off work, they all ate next door.

Even Liang Ping joined in the construction of the house.

village head.

Lu Sheng bought five chickens and five ducks, and other meat dishes, and was about to leave when someone stopped him suddenly.

"You are Xiao Sheng?"

Lu Sheng turned around suspiciously, only to see a fair-skinned, delicate-looking girl looking at her in surprise.

"What? Don't you know me?"

The girl strode forward, stood beside her and smiled.

Lu Sheng quickly recalled it in his mind, and finally recognized the girl in front of him.

"You are... Sister Le Ya!"

Hua Leya, the daughter of the landowner Hua, is very gentle and easy-going.

When I was young, I often played with Tao Jia and Lu Ran.

Later, when Le Ya was ten years old, Landlord Hua moved suddenly.

When Le Ya left Liuyue Village, the original owner was already eight years old, and he vaguely remembered that when Le Ya left, she was crying.

At that time, Le Ya was the prettiest girl in the eyes of the boys in the village, and even Duan Zhen, who had eyes above his head, had longed for her.

However, Le Ya seems to prefer to play with Tao Jia and Lu Ran.

Therefore, as Lu Ran's younger sister, Lu Sheng naturally gained a lot of benefits.

Every time the pocket is full of delicious food.

But later, not long after Le Ya left, Mrs. He passed away.

Within a year, Lu Dahua married the Liu family.

After that, Lu Ran's temperament began to change drastically.

After Lu Ran had been with Sun Hu and the others for a few years, it was not easy for him to change his temperament.

"Remember me?"

Hua Leya smiled and held her hand, "I thought you were good-looking when you were young, and you turned out to be a great beauty when you grew up."

"Sister Le Ya really hasn't changed at all, she's still as good-looking as she was when she was young."

Le Ya laughed lightly, she stretched out her hand to pinch the tip of Lu Sheng's nose, and said dotingly: "You girl, when you were young, you even felt shy when looking at people, but you never thought that your mouth would be so sweet when you grow up."

"Girl, master and wife are still waiting at home."

The little maid standing beside her reminded her.

When Le Ya turned her head, the smile on her lips faded instantly. She glanced at the little maid, and when she turned her head to look at Lu Sheng, her face was full of smiles again.

"Brother Ran, is he in the village?"

Lu Sheng shook his head, "Not here, he went to study in the town and comes back occasionally."

Le Ya seemed to be disappointed for a moment, but the smile on her face made Lu Sheng feel that he must be delusional.

"Okay, we just came back, and we still have a lot of things to do at home. When I'm done, I'll go and see you and your aunt."

When the word "aunt" was mentioned, Lu Sheng suddenly pursed his lips.

Le Ya was taken aback, "What's wrong?"

"My mother has been away for eight years this year."

Le Ya is a careful person, as soon as she saw Lu Sheng's expression, she knew what the word "leave" meant.

"I... I don't know, I'm sorry, Xiaosheng!"

Lu Sheng smiled lightly and shook his head, "It's okay, sister Le Ya, let's go first, I'm also busy here."

Le Ya nodded, "Okay, then I'll see you after I'm done."

"Well, sister Le Ya, go slowly!"

Lu Sheng watched Le Ya get into the carriage before turning and leaving.

In the carriage, the little maid looked at Hua Leya hesitantly.

"Is there a problem?"

Xiaofen is a new maid bought by her stepmother. This little maid doesn't give her orders very well, but she obeys her stepmother's orders.

It was this that displeased Le Ya.

Her former maid, Xiaowen, was betrayed because she did something wrong and angered her stepmother.

She had been looking for a chance to buy him back, but unfortunately, when she passed by, Xiaowen had already been bought away.

As a last resort, Xiaofen was brought with her.

"Girl, Madam said that although we moved back to live, our status is much higher than those lowly villagers. Girl can no longer get along with those lowly people like before."

"Untouchable?"

Le Ya sneered, "She forgot where she came from?"

Her mother died six years ago, and just after the three-year period, her father married Mrs. Peng.

This Peng family also came from the village before, but she was favored by her father because of her good birth.

If her natal family hadn't relied on their Hua family, they might still be working in the fields with their legs rolled up like the villagers of Liuyue Village.

Some people, after living a good life for a few years, forget where they came from.

"Xiaofen, please remember this girl, you are my servant girl, not Peng's maidservant, if you continue to help her, just wait until you return to the tooth shop."

Le Ya's tone was very light, but Xiaofen felt a sense of fear for no reason.

She managed to get out of that ghostly place, and if she went back, if she met a bad master, she might not even know how to die.

Xiaofen was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt down, "Gu... girl, please don't send this servant back to the tooth shop, this servant will listen to you in the future!"

"Remember what you said today."

Le Ya pinched her chin, with a smile on her lips, "Xiaofen, you must always remember that you are the one who serves me. Although my father loves her Peng Shi, don't forget, my father loves her even more. , it’s me and my younger brother, sending you off is just a matter of my words.”
