The life of farming in ancient times with a system

Chapter 147 He Did It

Early in the morning, Lin was already waiting in the yard.

Gongsun Cong and Gongsun Jiang got up late, and they are still eating at home.

After the meal, he will be the host and lead the two of them to the watermelon and pepper fields.

Not long after, Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Cong came out of the house.

Gongsun Jiang said to Jiang Daizhen, "Aren't you going?"

Jiang Daizhen said: "I have been there many times, and I will go today. I am waiting for you at home."

Seeing that his complexion was not good, Gongsun Jiang did not force it. When he was walking on the road, he said to Lin Shen: "During eating, I really felt like vomiting several times. I think he is not feeling well. I'm afraid he is sick. You guys Is there a good doctor here? If not, go outside and invite two good doctors to come over."

After hearing this, Lin Shen didn't show a worried expression, but instead showed a bit of joy.

Seeing this, Gongsun Jiang was dissatisfied, and said what he wanted to say: "Your wife is sick, don't you worry?"

"It's not sick." Lin Shen quickly explained the situation, and said with a smile on his face: "I'm really happy, we just found out not long ago. A few days ago, I was really not feeling well, so I asked the doctor in the village to have a look. The doctor also said that the first child may have a stronger reaction, and it will be fine in a few days."

Gongsun Jiang blushed, and said embarrassedly: "Then I am not worried about Baiguai?"

"How come?" The smile on Lin Shen's face remained unchanged, and he said in a gentle voice, "I really know that you care about him so much, you will be very happy."

"Congratulations." Gongsun Cong reacted quickly after being stunned for a moment.

Lin Shen nodded, with a sweet smile on his face all the time.

Gongsun Jiang asked curiously how he and Jiang Dai really met.From Jiang Daizhen's mouth, I learned that Jiang Daizhen was born in a wealthy Jiang family. At that time, Lin Shen was poor and white, and he was just a small carpenter.

Lin Shen didn't hide anything, and told them as he walked, how he and Jiang Daizhen met and fell in love.

The watermelon field has arrived, and there are people standing there patrolling.Seeing Lin Shen approaching, the man hurried up to greet him, and shouted nervously: "Gong Lin..."

This person is Zhang Xiaoke's remarried husband-in-law.

The watermelon field is too big, and there are always some people who want to get something for nothing. It is impossible for Lin Shen to guard here every day. The old carpenter wants to guard it, but he is too old and in poor health. How could Lin Shen agree?Later, he hired this man to guard the watermelon field, and the number of people stealing watermelons has decreased a lot.

Lin Shen asked him, "Have you had breakfast yet?"

The man rubbed his big hands honestly, and said with a smile, "I've eaten, Xiao Ke just left with the child."

Lin Shen said, "I'll take the guests to the field to have a look."

The man nodded hurriedly, "Yes."

He stood on the ground and watched Lin Shen lead a few people to the center of the watermelon field.

Gongsun Jiang knelt down, tapped a big watermelon with his fingers and said, "Is this ripe?"

"To judge whether a watermelon is ripe, you must first look at its shape..." Lin Shen explained in detail, and Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Cong also listened carefully.

Being serious is one thing, but being able to learn is another.

Gongsun Jiang pointed to a watermelon and said, "It's ripe."

Gongsun Cong stepped forward to touch the watermelon, nodded and said, "It's ripe."

"Are you sure?" Lin Shen asked again. Seeing that both of them were sure, he picked the watermelon and cut it open with a knife on the spot.Seeing that the flesh inside the watermelon was red, Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Cong showed satisfied smiles.

"Since they are all cut up, it would be a pity not to eat them." Lin Shen gave each of them a piece of watermelon, and he took a piece of watermelon himself, and ate it hungrily.

Gongsun Jiang was a little reserved at first, and felt that it was indecent to eat watermelon standing on the ground. Seeing that Lin Shen and the man guarding the watermelon field were so forthright, he started to eat watermelon in a heartbeat.

Gongsun Cong was more forthright. Although he came from a wealthy family, he was not the kind of person who couldn't bear hardships.In order to see the watermelon field, they walked a lot, and then talked a lot. He was already thirsty, and he picked up the watermelon and gnawed it without any airs.

Even a few of them couldn't finish eating such a big watermelon.Lin Shen distributed the remaining watermelons to the passing villagers. The villagers took the watermelons and thanked them repeatedly, and then went home happily.

Saying goodbye to the man, Lin Shen took Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Chen to the pepper field.

The pepper field is not far from here, and the green and red peppers hang on the branches, which looks quite beautiful from a distance.Villagers passing by will stop here and stretch their necks to look into the pepper field.

"Is this the pepper?"

"This stuff is very spicy. Eating one will kill you. Put a little when cooking, and the taste of that dish will change."

"Are you stealing peppers?"

Several villagers were talking when suddenly there were a few footsteps behind them.Everyone turned their heads and found that the person who came was Lin Shen.Someone's face became hot, and he hid in the crowd with a guilty conscience.

People greeted each other: "Gong Lin."

"The forest worker is here."

Lin Shen nodded and said, "You are also looking at the ground."

"We're looking at chili," someone said.

Some people took advantage of the crowd and said loudly: "Gong Lin, can we grow peppers too?"

"Yes, this year is not enough. If you want to plant next year, you can ask me for seeds." Lin Shen said.

People burst into laughter when they got this answer

"This is the pepper field. I didn't grow much this year." Lin Shen said.

"Then you will earn less money, those people outside like to eat chili." Gongsun Jiang said.

They walked a few steps in, far away from the crowd on the ground.

Gongsun Cong said with a smile, "Scarce is the most valuable thing. If you give the seeds to others, the pepper will be worthless in the coming year. What can you do if you suffer a loss?"

"No, my Great Wei has a large population, and there must be many people who like to eat chili peppers. The more people grow, the more people will enjoy this kind of food, which is a good thing." Lin Shen smiled. explain.

All of a sudden, Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Cong looked at him strangely.

"You can think so, it's not the same as those profiteers." Gongsun Cong couldn't help giving him a high look.

"I'm not a businessman, I'm just a farmer." Lin Shen said with a smile.

Lin Shen taught them how to pick peppers.

After picking peppers, his hands would feel hot, Gongsun Cong sighed: "The farmers are very hard."

Lin Shen said: "There is a poem written like this: When we hoe the grain at noon, the sweat drips down the grain..."

After listening to this poem, both Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Cong were touched.

"Fresh peppers are not easy to keep, but dried peppers are easy to keep. Put them in a cool place and occasionally put them in the sun for a few years. There is no problem in keeping them for several years." Lin Shen said.

Gongsun Jiang asked bluntly, "How is that chili sauce made?"

"Grind the dried chili into powder, and then deep-fry it in hot oil..." Lin Shen told the production process without hesitation.

Gongsun Cong said in surprise, "It's such a commercial secret. If it works well, it can earn a lot of money a year. Are you going to tell us that?"

"It will be improved in the future." Lin Shen said.

After thinking about it, Gongsun ginger is already so delicious, it will be better if it is improved in the future?

If he returns to the capital, he won't be able to eat such delicious chili sauce, and he feels regretful when he thinks about it.

Lin Shen looked at the sun above his head and said, "It's still early, do you want to go back, or go somewhere else?"

"It's too hot, let's go back." Gongsun Jiang said, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

Not only Gongsun Jiang, but also Gongsun Cong was so hot that he agreed to go home quickly.

As soon as they started walking, they heard a crash behind them, as if something was swimming in the rice field.

There is water in the paddy field, what could it be?

"Is it a snake?" Gongsun Jiang was taken aback, and immediately jumped behind Lin Shen and Gongsun Cong.He was afraid of snakes and frogs since he was a child. He saw a servant bitten by a snake and died soon after he could not be treated by a doctor.Seeing these slippery things, he was terrified.

Gongsun Cong's face was tense, and the muscles in his arms bulged.

Lin Shen said with a relaxed face: "It's not a snake, and it's not a dangerous place. I scattered some fish fry and tadpoles in the rice fields."

Gongsun Jiang didn't like frogs either, so he said with a troubled expression, "Why did you do this, isn't it disgusting?"

"The fried frog with chili is very fragrant," Lin Shen said.

Lin Shen caught a fish and some frogs and went home.

Jiang Daizhen greeted him with a smile, and walked towards the cool place holding Gongsun Jiang's hand.

Gongsun Jiang asked him, is he feeling better?

"It's much better. There was nothing wrong with it." Jiang Daizhen said with a smile.

Gongsun Cong followed Lin Shen to the kitchen.

Lin Shen rolled up his sleeves and handled the fish and frogs he brought back. He was very skillful, and it seemed that this was not the first time he was cooking.

"Do you like sour or spicy food?" Gongsun Jiang asked curiously.

"I like them all, as long as they are delicious." Jiang Daizhen said with a smile.

Gongsun Jiang was stunned.

Jiang Daizhen laughed again: "You want to say, the sour one is the gentleman, and the hot one is the elder brother, right?"

"Yes, you know all about it?" Gongsun Jiang said.

Jiang Daizhen smiled sweetly: "I know, after knowing that I am happy, many people in the village came to see me, almost all of whom had given birth to children, and they told me." Lin Shen said.

"So, your husband-in-law is very popular." Gongsun Jiang said.

Jiang Daizhen nodded and said: "Most people in the mountains are very simple."

The two chatted for a while.

Gongsun Jiang suddenly sniffled and said, "I can smell the fragrance."

Jiang Daizhen bent his eyes and laughed, with an indescribably narrow expression.

Gongsun Jiang blushed, and said embarrassedly: "I haven't walked so much, I'm already hungry."

Before eating, Gongsun Jiang looked disgusted and said, "I will never eat such disgusting things."

Unable to be persuaded, he endured the discomfort and ate one, and it was really delicious again.

Gongsun Cong thought he was ashamed, and said something about him afterwards.

"You say you don't eat it, but you eat more than anyone else, so you're not afraid of being laughed at?"

"It's so delicious, I didn't want to eat it." Gongsun Jiang scratched his hair and said embarrassedly.

"You, let me tell you what's good about you. However, that stir-fried frog with chili is really delicious." Gongsun Cong said.

Gongsun Jiang took a breath.

Gongsun Cong squinted and saw Gongsun Jiang stuck out his tongue.

Gongsun Jiang said: "Although chili is delicious, it is easy to get angry if you eat too much. Look at the tip of my tongue, how swollen it is."

"Madam Lin made some herbal tea. You just ate it on the table and didn't know how many sips you had. Look at me, I also ate a lot of chili, so I didn't get angry." Gongsun Cong said.

"Everyone calls him Zhenzhen, but you call him Mrs. Lin." Gongsun Jiang said with a faint smile.

Gongsun Cong looked up into the distance and said meaningfully: "I am reminding myself."

Gongsun Jiang and Gongsun Cong lived here for five or six days before leaving.

In the distance, Xiaotao saw a person wandering in front of the yard.

When she got closer, Xiaotao saw clearly who this person was.

"What fragrance brought you here?" Xiaotao said quietly.

Yu Huai cleared his throat and whispered, "He is your uncle's second brother after all, so you should be more polite."

"What are you afraid of him doing?" Xiao Tao said dissatisfied.

Lin He seemed unable to hear the sarcasm in Xiao Tao's words, and said with a normal expression: "I heard that a stranger has come to the village, I'll come and have a look."

"They didn't come looking for you, what kind of mind are you doing?" Xiao Tao said angrily.

"I'm concerned about my brother. Go in and tell him that I have something to ask him." Lin He said cheekily.

"It's not like you don't have a long mouth, go in and talk by yourself." Xiaotao said.

"I..." Lin He scratched his face in embarrassment.

There was a little conflict with Lin Shen, and the two hadn't spoken for a long time.Everyone around him knew that no matter how thick his skin was, he couldn't pretend that nothing had happened.

He wanted Xiaotao to go in and ask Lin Shen. If Lin Shen knew that he was at the door, he couldn't be too ugly in front of the guests, so he would definitely let him in to talk.

"I quarreled with my brother, I'm embarrassed to see him." Lin He said.

Xiaotao ignored him, and dragged Yu Huai into the courtyard.

Lin He shouted from behind: "Xiao Tao, I know you have the best heart, so just do me this favor."

Xiaotao still told Lin Shen.

Afterwards, Yu Huai asked him why he helped Lin He, wouldn't it be good to pretend he couldn't see it?

Xiaotao said: "There is a vicious dog squatting at the gate of the courtyard, it's too creepy."

Lin He explained the reason for coming, and said awkwardly: "I was wrong in the past. I will be an honest person in the future, and I will not be like before, always thinking about reaching the sky in one step."

Lin Shen's expression was condensed, and he said lightly: "Let me ask you something, did you steal the plastic film for the greenhouse?"

Lin He's eyes flashed, and he frowned and said, "You suspect that I stole your things?"

Lin Shen looked at him without saying a word, the expression on his face said everything.

"It's not me. I have a lot of money. How could I do such a nasty thing? I'm your brother, but you treat me as a thief. You don't like me from the bottom of your heart." Lin Hechu was furious, his eyes widened with excitement. All red.

The quarrel came out, and Gongsun Jiang heard the sound and asked Xiaotao what was going on.

Xiaotao said with contempt: "This man is my uncle's second brother, very treacherous. My uncle lost a lot of things, and I searched the whole village and couldn't find the thief."

Gongsun Jiang glanced at Lin He and said, "Your uncle suspects that his brother stole it?"

"Not only my uncle, but all of us think so." Xiaotao said.

"If he really stole it, it's impossible for him to admit it." Gongsun Jiang said.

"You can tell by his expression, he did it." Gongsun Cong said with certainty.
