Splendid glory of a girl from another world

Li Qiusui's master and servant didn't take it seriously for helping to carry the basket and a casually polite word.

The pomegranate tree is here, and the two parties parted ways from here.

……

The pomegranate trees in the middle of the mountain are eight or nine years old, and they usually reach the full fruiting period in fourteen or fifteen years. The fruit is so big that there are twenty or thirty pomegranates on one tree.

The baskets carried by the master and the servant can hold two or three trees to the sky. There is a simple version of the fruit-picking artifact. It is not troublesome to pick the pomegranates that grow on the treetops.

I didn't say which tree must be picked next to the bald ones, but every tree with red skin, yellow skin, and green skin should be picked.

The weight of a single pomegranate is not as heavy as a Ping An fruit, and two baskets are full, not to mention Li Qiusui carrying it with ease, even Hong Ying is not too strenuous to carry it on her back.

The master and servant found a clean place to sit down, shared a pomegranate, and Hongying took out a handkerchief to help Li Qiusui wipe his hands, and then they could go down the mountain.

Li Qiusui discussed with Hongying, "If the kitchen isn't busy this afternoon, let's find two more people to help us pick all these pomegranates home."

The big, good-looking ones are kept for home use or given away, while the smaller, ugly-skinned ones are skinned when the weather is good, and can be used to make wine and vinegar.

Hongying nodded, "Okay, okay, the kitchen is busy with meals today, and I know my wife is making dim sum, so I'm afraid I won't be too busy, so I'll prepare it early in the morning!"

The dim sum made by Liu's are some common local foods, which are heavy on oil and sweet, such as cannabis flowers, honey three knives and so on.This is an era when oil and sugar are extremely expensive and rare, and it is the most practical thing for people in the country to give gifts.

Li Qiusui's appetite was spoiled by Hongying, and she also ate the dim sum made by Liu's, but she preferred Hongying's sweet-scented osmanthus cake and Fuling cake, which were more delicate.

"Hongying, there are still dried osmanthus flowers at home! Shall we make some osmanthus cakes to eat? Also, it's almost August and a half, how can there be no moon cakes?"

When it comes to food, Li Qiusui's eyes shine.

Early in the morning, Shi Yang and Liu's greasy breakfast food missed a few mouthfuls, and he was busy for a long time, especially after eating half a pomegranate, he felt his chest stick to his back when he was hungry!
Hongying took out two pieces of dim sum as if conjuring, "Girl, take a bite first! We still have dried sweet-scented osmanthus, I'll soak it up tonight, and start making sweet-scented osmanthus moon tomorrow..."

"Ah! Have you picked so many pomegranates?"

Hongying's words were interrupted by someone who came, and she knew it was the boy who talked a lot when they went up the mountain together.

Li Qiusui carefully wrapped the dim sum that Hongying handed over.No matter how unreliable she is, she has no habit of eating in front of people she doesn't know well.

"My lord, it seems that we came here just by coincidence! If you hadn't reminded us and delayed for a while, how long would we have to wait?"

What he said was as if Li Qiusui's master and servant were waiting for them to come and carry the baskets.

Hongying hurriedly waved her hands, "No, no! No, we didn't wait for you to recite it, we can do it ourselves."

As he spoke, he rushed forward to carry the basket.

"What's the matter? Your little girl is born with little strength, and we men should do the hard work. I just went around the mountain, and I almost forgot about it without being reminded by the young master. After waiting for so long, don't be serious. Is it better to be angry?"

The young servant glanced at the pomegranate skins that were casually thrown on the ground by the two masters and servants. While talking, he led his companions to carry the two baskets on their backs.

Hongying didn't snatch him away, so she stomped her feet anxiously.

Li Qiusui pulled the little girl over, "Let them help carry it."

Why can't she follow suit, no way, take out the whip and beat him up, and then grab the basket?
Then I explained to them that we either made a special trip to wait for your help, or we just ate a pomegranate and felt hungry again, so we planned to eat a piece of pastry.

It's not very familiar, no matter how you explain it, you will be suspected of getting darker and darker.

Come on, help memorize memorize it!
Each of the two young servants carried a basket, and the young man didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

This young man is about the same age as Li Changan and Zheng Ying, with a handsome face that has not lost his childishness and expression. You say that he pretends to be old-fashioned, and his gestures are serious, which seems to be the case.

Li Qiusui wouldn't be serious with anyone in such trivial matters, he could think whatever he wanted.

……

When the group of five arrived at the house, Li Qiusui gave them a few big pomegranates as promised, and said politely, "Thank you very much, if it doesn't work, why don't you just stay at home and have a light meal before leaving?"

He didn't say this to anyone specifically, but just casually said it to the three master and servant.

"No, Ms. Li. Thank you for your pomegranate! I still have something to do when I go back to the county today, so we'll be back right away."

After exchanging greetings, the guests leave and the host greets them.

Li Qiusui watched the three masters and servants leave, and when they turned around, they went back to the kitchen with Hongying, where they picked two large baskets of pomegranates.

These are reluctant to make wine and vinegar, first wipe off the skin one by one to dry, put them at home, they can be eaten for a long time.

"Sui Sui is also in the kitchen? Your father asked me to come over to see what delicious food is available today. There will be guests at home for dinner in the afternoon. I heard that you just came back from the orchard together. The big pomegranate they brought is ours. Home? How many did you pick? Give me two later.”

Li Sizhu was still helping with the work at home. After clarifying the more than 500 taels of silver, the old man still refused to let the fourth son leave the house of the third son.In his words, if he stays at the third child's house, the fourth child can still get a salary. When he goes out, his heart is higher than the sky, and he may cause a big disaster again someday.

Li Sizhu was already guilty, so he dared not listen to the old man's words.

The rice in the fields should be harvested soon, and the two brothers have been busy in the fields for the past two days.When I first entered the house, I met the young master who often came to the house with the county magistrate Jiang. The third brother politely said that he would stay at home for dinner. voila.

Don't take people's young age seriously, there are high-ranking officials everywhere in the capital. With that kind of momentum, even if you don't become an official now, you will be expected to be a high-ranking official when you grow up.

For a meal, go to the field to see, and you can't rob your own crops.Not to mention flattering others, you can't offend them for nothing.

The corners of Li Qiusui's mouth twitched, and he decided to stay at home for dinner.

Passed two big pomegranates to Li Sizhu, "The rice in the field will be harvested in two days, right? If Uncle Si is free, he will go to the mountainside to pick the pomegranates."

Li Sizhu nodded, opened a pomegranate casually, revealing the bright red pomegranate rice inside, gnawed on it, swallowed it without even spit out the seeds, and said, "I don't know how the fruit trees in your family are grown. Not to mention the big knot, this is sweet, full of moisture, and so delicious. Don’t worry about Sui Sui, I will pick pomegranates and wrap them on your fourth uncle, and I will make a home for you after a while."
