Farming in time travel can be slapped in the face

Chapter 55 The dust has settled

The street is deserted. The cold wind picks up the discarded objects thrown by people during the day and swirls them past. Xu Rong and Shen Jiyao are hiding at one end of the street. Wang Baoer and Zhang Yong are hiding in the corner. On the other side, Wang Yue'er stayed at the inn to take care of Xiao Doumi, just waiting for the perpetrator to show up.

The five people have been waiting here for a long time, and Xu Rong was always worried, fearing that if they didn't come, they would be getting an advantage from the troublemakers.

After waiting impatiently for a while, there was still no one on the street. Xu Rong was really worried, so he asked Shen Jiyao: "Brother Shen, do you think that person will really come? If he doesn't come tonight, what will happen to us?" Why do we have to keep watch all night? How did you know he would come at this time?"

Shen Jiyao said softly: "The people in the snack alley open later than our house. It's only about half an hour late. This is what I think. They can't come with a bucket of dung when they open the door for business, so they have to find an opportunity to pour it first. There are no people on the street at this time. It's the worst time. It's a good time to start. After I'm done, I can go back to sleep and get up early to continue doing business. Moreover, the excrement I saw in the morning has almost dried up, so it's probably about this time. Don't worry, I think that person will definitely do it. Come."

Xu Rong saw that his analysis was clear and logical, and when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't help but admire Shen Jiyao even more. He didn't say more, but waited patiently.

It was really uncomfortable for the two of them to hide behind a small stall. The cold wind was blowing at night. Fortunately, there was a place to block the wind. Shen Jiyao started to feel sleepy after squatting for a long time. He buried his head in his knees and fell asleep. When they were drowsy, a figure from the other side of the street carrying something suddenly came into their sight.

Xu Rongben was also stunned. As soon as he saw the figure, he patted Shen Jiyao excitedly, pointed at the figure and said softly: "Brother Shen, look, is it that person?"

Shen Jiyao cheered up and looked forward, only to see in front of him. There was indeed a figure. The figure was getting closer and closer. He was holding a bucket in his hand and said, "It's probably him. Wait until he wants to take action before going out and catching him. I don't know what Bao'er is doing." Will they make mistakes? I hope they will remember what I told them."

Xu Rong stared at the figure and whispered: "Don't worry, Brother Shen. Although Bao'er can't speak, he has a calm and reliable character. With him here, he can do anything. No leaks."

Shen Jiyao nodded and stared at the figure getting closer and closer. When he was more than ten feet away, Shen Jiyao finally saw the face of the man, who was holding a bucket of dung. The person walking forward turned out to be the woman selling cooking cakes across the door from them. Shen Jiyao gritted his teeth and watched her walk into the snack alley.

Shen Jiyao said: "Follow me."

Xu Rong responded, carefully going out and following the woman in hiding.

The woman walked straight to Shen Jiyao's shop with a bucket of dung and stopped. She raised the bucket of dung and grabbed it with one hand and was about to splash it when Shen Jiyao suddenly shouted: "Stop!"

The woman screamed, The bucket of excrement in her hand crashed to the ground, splashing all over her body.

Shen Jiyao and Xu Rong rushed forward, and Wang Baoer and others also rushed over. When the woman saw that she was caught, she turned around and wanted to run away, but Wang Baoer and others blocked her way.

Shen Jiyao walked behind the woman, and a stench hit him. He looked at the panicked and embarrassed woman and said coldly: "I didn't expect it to be you. It's all in vain that I invited you to eat last time.

" She looked cruel but was trembling all over. She didn't know whether she was cold because she was wet with feces or because she was angry. She said: "Bah! I don't care about eating. You insisted on giving it to me."

Shen Jiyao nodded indifferently. Head, said: "Yes, the sesame biscuits I made are so shabby, I really don't want to eat anything better than your sesame biscuits. I guess even if others don't say that your sesame biscuits are not as delicious as my egg pancakes, you will secretly know it yourself. Are you going to make yourself angry if you are making comparisons? It's a good idea to blame others for what you make."

"You are shameless!" the woman scolded: "This is an alley. Everyone here only cooks one thing to sell, but you can cook seven or eight of them at once! You've taken away all our business, so what's wrong with your family? What can you do, shameless brother!"

"Oh, that's it." Shen Jiyao said with a look of realization: "Then I will specialize in making flatbreads. There are many ways to make flatbreads. I haven't tried them all yet, but you reminded me today not to take away other people's business. I'll start making all kinds of cakes tomorrow."

The woman gritted her teeth in anger after hearing this. She looked at Shen Jiyao fiercely, and was so angry that she couldn't help but yell at him for being shameless.

Shen Jiyao listened to her scolding for a long time, and then he said calmly: "There are many shameless people out there. Compared with people like you who do things behind the scenes, I am a nobody. You can tell yourself, I How should I settle this account with you? I've lost at least three taels of silver a day. You should pay for it."

The woman's expression changed and she yelled, "Fine!"

Shen Jiyao said, "You don't want to pay. Okay, let's go to the Supervisory Hall to find two supervisors to judge and see whose fault it is. We will do whatever they want us to do."

The woman immediately panicked. If the supervisor really knew about it. Her behavior was afraid that the store would be taken back. The woman was shaking even more violently, holding her fists tightly and saying nothing.

Shen Jiyao snorted coldly and said: "Now you know how scared you are? You made me lose a whole day's business in one thought, which is only a few taels of silver, not much. But I can ruin your reputation in one thought, or you can It makes you unable to stay on this street, and I can also tell you clearly that if you want to bring bad luck to me, no matter what food you sell in the future, I can make something more delicious than what you make to rob you. Business, do you believe it?"

The woman looked at him with a pale face and said nothing. It was surprising that she could see how delicious Shen Jiyao's food was, and this man's mind was not ordinary. He could only rely on himself. With such a little thought, there was no way she could outsmart him, so she was easily caught by him. The more the woman thought about it, the more afraid she became, and the more she hated Shen Jiyao. She didn't want to bow to him at all, so she bit her lower lip tightly. She looked at him hard and said nothing.

Shen Jiyao meant to ask her to take the initiative to admit her mistake and resolve the matter. Seeing that she refused to admit her mistake, he said: "If you have a temper, let's meet at the surveillance office tomorrow. It's up to them to decide how to deal with you. Xu Rong, let's take care of you." Let's take her back first. We've caught someone with stolen goods, but don't let him go."

Xu Rong stepped forward and grabbed the woman's clothes and said, "Let's go."

Then the woman realized that she was scared and was busy. He begged for mercy: "Brother Shen, please do well. It's all my fault. I won't dare to do it anymore. Please don't send me to the prison. Our whole family still relies on me to support us. Please Please, I'll kneel down for you. As long as you don't send me to the prison, I'll do whatever you want. Just do it." The woman said and fell to her knees on the ground, still saying nothing. Those who live there are begging for mercy.

Shen Jiyao's expression softened a little. What he wanted was for the woman to admit her mistake. He could accept it even if she admitted her mistake with all her heart. Although this woman was indeed very annoying, it was considered self-indulgence if feces was poured on her. The consequences were over, and now that he had admitted his mistake, he did not need to do anything too extreme. After all, he was not the only one who wanted to make money to support his family, but it was naturally impossible for Shen Jiyao to let her go so easily, so he said: "Let her go." It's easy for you to go and clean the floor outside my shop. When I come here tomorrow morning, I don't want to see it still like this. Please don't trouble me again in the future, otherwise I won't even if I can't get the evidence. Make you feel better, you are not the only one who can play tricks on you."

Although the woman was reluctant to hear this, she still nodded gratefully and agreed. Then Shen Jiyao asked the others to go back and rest.

A few people here breathed a sigh of relief, but Lan Qianjue, who was staying alone in the village, was extremely worried.

The few people who were supposed to go back on time suddenly didn't go back, and even in the middle of the night, they still didn't see anyone coming back. How could people not be worried?

The oil lamp in the granary was swaying by the wind blowing in from the gaps around it. Lan Qianjue rested her elbows on her knees, hunched over and sat on the bed with her head in her arms, waiting. When the third watch was almost over, she still couldn't wait for anyone. Come, he was extremely confused, fearing that something had happened to them in the town and they would not be able to come back.

He hadn't seen Shen Jiyao in six or seven days. He and Xiaodoumi had been told by Xu Rong that neither of them had come back and there was no news at all. This made him restless all the time, for fear that the two of them would be caught in the town. He was bullied, but it was a shame that the old man always pretended to be sick and stayed at home these days, making it impossible for him to get away.

Lan Qianjue became more and more uneasy. The slightest movement outside the house would make him get up and open the door to check. After waiting for a while and finding nothing, he had to go back to the house disappointed again.

Hei Dan seems to have sensed Lan Qianjue's annoyance. He was lying on the ground obediently, but now he is also spinning around at Lan Qianjue's feet. Now Hei Dan has grown into a half-sized black dog. He is usually very clever. He is very loyal to Shen Jiyao who always prepares food for him. He hasn't seen Shen Jiyao for so long, and his food has been much warmer than usual in the past few days.

It circled around Lan Qianjue's feet for a long time, and then suddenly raised its head and barked loudly, which scared the anxious Lan Qianjue back to his senses. Lan Qianjue clenched his fists, thought for a while, and suddenly said: " Let's go to town to find Ji Yao."

"Woof, woof, woof!" Heidan raised his neck and shouted three times. Then he ran to the door and stood up to scratch it, looking impatient.

Lan Qianjue stood up and released the black egg out of the house. It was dark outside, and there was a faint light blue in the sky above his head. After adapting to the darkness, he could distinguish objects. The shadows of the trees on the mountain behind the house were whirling, quiet and lonely. Lan Qianjue became more and more excited at this moment. He wanted to see Shen Jiyao, so he went up and knocked on the door of the main room.

After a while, the old man's impatient voice sounded in the room, saying: "Here we come! It's so late at night, please hurry up."

As soon as the door opened, Lan Qianjue pushed open the door and went in. The oil lamp in the room was not turned on. The old man was really worried. Lan Qianjue didn't care about these little things with him. He walked to the side to pack the old man's clothes and said: "You can go back to live in your yard now, and I will pick up Ji." Yao and his children are back, and you are here. He doesn't want to come, so I have to wrong you."

"It's best if you don't come." The old man said with disdain: "I won't leave, can't I stay at my son's house? Who dares to say anything wrong?"

Lan Qianjue turned to stare at him coldly and said, "It's not up to you."

He put away the old man's clothes, grabbed the key, and walked to the old man's side. , said in a smooth voice: "Let's go, I'll take you back to the house."

The old man turned his head and glared at Lan Qianjue, and shouted: "You unfilial son, I'm still sick, I won't go back! I gave birth to you and raised you. "How many days can't I stay here with you?"

Lan Qianjue frowned, and without saying a word, he grabbed the old man's arm and dragged him out of the house. Heidan growled and came up to bite the old man's trouser leg. He dragged it out.

The old man was furious that Lan Qianjue actually wanted to drive him out, so he kept scolding him for being unfilial and evil. Despite this, he was still pulled out of the house by Lan Qianjue.

Lan Qianjue pulled him out of the yard, then stuffed clothes into him, ran back a few steps and locked the door. Hei Dan walked around the yard excitedly for a few times, and when he saw Lan Qianjue coming over, he immediately ran out. Go, Lan Qianjue followed in a few steps, but as soon as he got out of the yard, he was blocked by the old man.

He yelled angrily: "If you dare to leave, don't recognize me as your father again!"

"It's up to you." Lan Qianjue said: "You are a father, and I am a father, but I love my son more. , and you, just for your own face, have to impose your own ideas on others. If you are satisfied with the job, you will praise it. If you are not satisfied with the job, you will never tolerate it. You only care about yourself, but I will never do it in the future. If I continue to behave like this with you, I want to live for myself, not for your face."

After speaking, Lan Qianjue jumped onto the surrounding roadside and left without looking back.

The old man sighed angrily on the spot, angry that he was being manipulated by a brother, so he had to go back to his house in the dark angrily.

Lan Qianjue walked out of the village quickly. The surroundings were blurry, and the black egg was completely dark. He could only hear its breathing sound, but he couldn't find it unless he looked carefully.

One person and one dog hurriedly arrived in the town. Lan Qianjue stood in front of the clean but smelly shop. She vaguely knew that something had happened to Shen Jiyao. Lan Qianjue's heart suddenly tightened. He got up, fearing that Shen Jiyao had been bullied, so he went straight to the inn that Xu Rong and the others had mentioned.

It was almost the fourth watch now, and the street was quiet. Occasionally, a wild cat sprang out. Heidan looked at it and barked, trying to chase it away, but Lan Qianjue stopped him again.

The inn in the town was only open until midnight and was now closed. Only two lanterns were left hanging under the eaves, illuminating a small area. Lan Qianjue stood outside the door for a moment and then sat down on the stone steps, planning to wait. When Shen Jiyao came out, he didn't know if their group was still at the inn, but he had nowhere to go and could only wait here.

Black Dan was circling around excitedly, but when he saw Lan Qianjue sitting down, he also ran over and curled up next to his legs.

The street was dark and extremely quiet. Lan Qianjue's originally impetuous heart gradually calmed down, and after a while, he sat on the stone steps and slowly fell asleep.

The night watcher walked around the whole town, and when he walked around the outside of the inn again, it was already the fifth watch.

Lan Qianjue was awakened by the sound of the gong. He raised his hand to wipe his eyes and looked up at the sky. This time happened to be the time when they set off from home to the town. If they walked fast to the town, it would take about half an hour. When they arrived, it seemed that Shen Jiyao and the others were coming out soon. Thinking of this, Lan Qianjue couldn't help but get excited.

Half an hour later, the inn door was opened.

Lan Qianjue immediately stood up and saw that it was the waiter.

The waiter looked at him strangely and said: "It's so early in the morning, don't block the door, blocking our God of Wealth. Can you be responsible?"

Lan Qianjue walked to the eaves opposite the inn without saying a word and stood there. Black Egg also ran over.

The inn gradually became brighter, and the waiter was setting up tables, chairs, and benches. Lan Qianjue stared inside for a moment. After a few breaths, Hei Dan suddenly barked and ran toward the inn with his tail wagging vigorously. Lan Qianjue In an instant, he knew that it was Hei Dan who knew that Shen Jiyao was coming down, so he ran over after him.

Shen Jiyao and his party happened to go downstairs and walk out the door, and saw a black dog running into the inn. Shen Jiyao stared and said doubtfully: "Hei Dan?"

"Woo, woof!" Hei Dan He whimpered excitedly and stepped forward to circle around Shen Jiyao.

"It's really a black egg?!" Xu Rong said: "Why did it get here? Is Brother Lan here too?"

Shen Jiyao was stunned when he heard this, and then he looked up with feeling. Lan Qianjue was standing there Outside the door.

Seeing that he was fine, Lan Qianjue felt relieved instantly. He shouted with a trembling voice: "Ji Yao."

"Qianjue. " "Shen Jiyao was stunned for a moment, then he ran towards Lan Qianjue with Xiao Doumi in his arms. Before he could stand still, he was hugged into Lan Qianjue's arms. Xiao Doumi was sandwiched between the two of them. When he saw Lan Qianjue, Juehou was very excited and screamed. Heitan came and circled around the two of them, jumping up and grabbing Shen Ji Yao from time to time.

The eyes of the people over there were inexplicably hot, and they all stood aside and watched

...

Jun. Back in the restaurant.

After Shen Jiyao prepared all the breakfast ingredients, he took out the rice washing water and rinsed the area where the fecal water was splashed. The smell gradually faded away

. Lan Qianjue told Lan Qianjue what happened in the past two days. Lan Qianjue held Xiao Doumi in his arms and looked thoughtful. He was obviously very unhappy that someone was bullying him like this. However, Shen Jiyao had already taken the decision to resolve the matter, so he had nothing to do with it. After thinking about it, I secretly decided that I would never leave him alone again.

It was getting brighter and customers came to the store. Before Shen Jiyao and Lan Qianjue had a good conversation, they were busy until noon. When there were fewer people around, we had time to talk in the kitchen.

Lan Qianjue prepared a portion of fried rice and handed it to Shen Jiyao, saying, "I've sent it back, old man. You can go home with your son." . "

"OK. Shen Jiyao stir-fried the vegetables and said, "But all the bedding and sheets at home need to be washed. I will buy a new set later and use them first." "

Lan Qianjue naturally had no objection, and felt at ease in her heart.

After this incident, the two of them became more and more tired of each other. They both understood how uncomfortable and uneasy separation was, and now they just want to be together every day.

Life seems like nothing they have ever experienced before . It was the same as before, it became quiet and peaceful again, and the weather gradually improved.

Xiao Doumi's body also grew, and the fetal hair that had been shaved several times now grew very well, contrasting with his white and tender face and the contrast between black and white. The big eyes are very cute.

In March, the grass is growing and the birds are flying. It is the time when everything is recovering.

Everything in the family is on track, and the land deed has been settled. Shen Jiyao went out of his way to do this. The reason they invited Yang Sanzhen to their home for dinner was to ask him to keep the land secret for them. They couldn't tell anyone where their land was. If they were really discovered, this was done to prevent it from being quietly destroyed in the future.

Fortunately, Yang Sanzhen was straightforward and kind, and agreed to them, and there were no problems after the land deed was drawn up, which made Shen Jiyao feel at ease. Shen Jiyao

's business was getting better and better, so much so that a restaurant wanted to come here. After accepting one of his breakfast recipes, Shen Jiyao immediately sold the mushroom, chicken porridge and fish fillet porridge he had just wanted to make to the restaurant at a high price of one hundred taels. The restaurant was not willing to do so, but Shen Jiyao only tried it that day. I made fish fillet porridge once, and I made three taels of silver just by selling this porridge. The shopkeeper of the restaurant immediately took out his money and bought it without saying anything

. I almost knew that Shen Jiyao had sold a dish of porridge for a high price of one hundred taels. His peers were extremely jealous of this, and diners flocked to the restaurant to try the taste, and they all said it was delicious, although the price It's a bit more expensive, but people love to eat it and are willing to spend money to buy it. The restaurant's business has been booming for many days because of these two porridges. This makes colleagues in the restaurant envious and also fights with Shen Jiyao. Note.

Other restaurants wanted to hire Shen Jiyao to cook at a price of 100 taels per month, but Shen Jiyao refused. Seeing that they couldn't hire him, they tried to buy him some food, but Shen Jiyao couldn't do anything. They refused to say anything, which made the restaurant that bought two porridge recipes very happy, and invited them to the restaurant for dinner from time to time.

As for selling recipes, Xu Rong and the others were very puzzled as to why they had to sell the recipes. Wouldn't it be better to sell it to a restaurant and make it yourself?

Shen Jiyao said: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I still have a lot of porridge. Later we will buy duck eggs to pickle preserved eggs to make preserved egg and lean meat porridge." , I think that porridge will be more popular. "

"I see. "Everyone looked like they were suddenly enlightened.

Shen Jiyao smiled and said: "We have a rest tomorrow. It's time to take care of the vegetables we scattered last time. When the weather gets warmer, we can collect all the vegetables in the ground. Plant vegetables such as peppers and cowpeas. "

A few people nodded after hearing this. When they gathered together in private, they began to wonder where Shen Jiyao got so many weird vegetables. When Xu Rong heard this, he slapped Zhang Yong who said this. On the head, he said: "Why do you care so much? We will plant whatever Brother Shen tells us to do. Don't think about these things." "

Zhang Yong looked resentful, and no one mentioned it again.

Early the next morning, a group of people went to the ground to take care of the vegetables. After taking care of the vegetables in the ground, they were too tired. On the second day,

Shen Jiyao sat on the bed with his bare shoulders and counted the money. Lan Qianjue was awakened by the sound of the coins clanking. He saw Shen Jiyao's bare shoulders and his back facing the things he kept tinkering with, so he sat down. He stood up, reached out to get some clothes and put them on him, then very naturally he went up to him and kissed his cheek, saying, "Counting the money? "

"Um. "Shen Jiyao placed the small box in front of Lan Qianjue for him to see, and said with a smile: "Including the two porridge coins sold the day before yesterday, we made a total of more than three hundred taels. We can be considered half a rich man. . "

"Calculate. " Lan Qianjue hugged Shen Jiyao's waist from behind and took him into his arms. He smiled and said: "After we save a few more months of money, we will go to the town to buy a small courtyard and live in the town. It's much more convenient to do business now that you don't have to travel back and forth. You've been feeling a lot tired and thin lately. Shen

Jiyao put the money into the box one by one and said: "Save it for a few more months. When my vegetables are grown, I plan to buy an inn or restaurant to cook them. I am making this snack just because I don't have the ingredients." Doing this all the time is not an option, as it will lose its novelty after a long time. I plan to open a restaurant and do both breakfast and stir-fry, what do you think? Lan

Qianjue kissed the shell of his ear and said, "I'll listen to you." "

Shen Jiyao narrowed his eyes and enjoyed his kiss, and said softly: "Is there anything you want to do? We have the capital now, so we can do it.

Lan Qianjue whispered: "I just want to be with you and my son. " "

"I'm talking about business. "Shen Jiyao said: "Have you ever planned to do any business before? "

"No." Lan Qianjue said: "With you here, can I think of any profitable business to do?"

"That's true." Shen Jiyao said honestly and politely: "Follow me and I guarantee that you will make a fortune. Wealth."

Lan Qianjue smiled without comment.

In the past few days, Shen Jiyao often worked for a few days and took one day off. He spent three days fishing and two days drying nets. The reason was for no other reason than that he was taking a few people to look for Chuncai in the mountains and ridges these days. The wild vegetables are planned to be made into cold dishes and sold in the store. Anyway, these wild vegetables are free of charge. If you develop one more dish, you will get a share of the money.

In just a few days, Shen Jiyao collected all the freshly bolted bracken, spring greens, and various wild vegetables on the mountain. After a little processing, he had all the side dishes for the fried rice at noon.

Shen Jiyao also has some experience in making cold dishes. After blanching, bracken is torn apart and soaked in rice water. It is very delicious for cold salad. Chun vegetables are used for scrambled eggs or blanched for cold salad. Wild vegetables are also mostly eaten as cold dishes. The main dish is cold vegetables. People who come to the store are attracted by the fragrance of spring vegetables. When they come to eat fried rice at noon, no matter how expensive these wild vegetables are, they will order one to try them. These cold vegetables are served with fried rice. It is simply impossible to say no. Delicious.

It's just a pity that there is no tempeh in the bracken. It would be more delicious if there was tempeh. Thinking of this, Shen Jiyao suddenly thought of another food he would make in the future, so he took out his homemade little book and wrote down tempeh, When the weather gets better and the vegetables in the fields are ripe, they can start planting soybeans and peppers. Shen Jiyao is very looking forward to this. As long as he grows a batch of vegetables, he can open a restaurant. With this At the same time, another plan in his mind was gradually taking shape. He was just waiting for the restaurant to open and the business would be good to implement it immediately.

The days were planned in an orderly manner by Shen Jiyao, and the two of them followed them to get better and better. However, after they got some money, they became more and more envied and jealous by the villagers.

On this day, Shen Jiyao had just cooked rice for the last customer when he heard Xu Rong shouting outside: "Brother Shen, Brother Su is here to see you."

After hearing this, Shen Jiyao went out with the rice and saw Su. Ye looked at him with a happy face and a little shyness. Shen Jiyao smiled and said hello to him before going to serve the fried rice to the diners.

Shen Jiyao came over and asked with a smile: "Seeing that you are in such a good mood, has something good happened?"

Su Ye nodded, hesitated for a while and then said: "Brother Zhang and I are getting married."

"Ah. ?" Shen Jiyao was stunned. He stared at Su Ye for a while before digesting what he said. After a while, he came back to his senses and said with a little surprise: "Really? That's great, your grandma. We finally agreed. We will get married on a certain day. Then we will go and congratulate you both."

Su Ye nodded with a smile and said, "It will be in ten days."
