Chapter 261: Wanggang Village Next Door Becomes Someone Else's Manor

Speaking of this, Su Wanwan immediately thought of the lady she saw that day. It turned out that she was this legendary woman.

She turned her head away immediately.

"So, why did she ask about Daliushu Village? I haven't seen her come to Daliushu Village recently. Didn't she say she was going to King Cheng?"

Shen Yuan hugged her waist and shook his head gently:

"I haven't heard about it, but Jiang Shun came to tell me a piece of news two days ago. Miss Ye wants to buy some land in our county to build her own farm, but our county is densely populated with villages, and there are no large tracts of vacant land to sell."

"The village head was called in to question us about this matter, but he didn't want our village's farmland to be sold. However, the neighboring Wanggang Village couldn't sit still and sold all their farmland. The whole village agreed to sell it."

Su Wanwan was startled and said casually:

"Is this still possible? How will the villagers of Wanggang Village live without their land?"

She was not worried about Wanggang Village. Wanggang Village had tried to steal their water last time. She was just curious.

“Although this disaster has passed, it is already August and there is still a month before the autumn harvest. Many people have run out of food, so it is not surprising that they have to sell their land.

Most of the people in Wanggang Village are lazy. They may have run out of food long ago. They sold their land and still live there. They can farm on weekdays, just like hired workers. They just want to have a bowl of rice to eat. "

"I heard that Wanggang Village unanimously agreed, and Ye Jingxue also agreed to let them stay on the farm to work. I'm afraid that Wanggang Village will become Ye Jingxue's farm in a few days."

As Shen Yuan was speaking, Su Wanwan also took a dry towel and wiped his hair.

The man's hair was black and straight, better than hers, so enviable.

"So, our Daliushu Village is also going to change neighbors? But Miss Ye is also stupid. Hasn't she ever asked about the people in Wanggang Village? She is a lady from a famous family, and I don't know if she can intimidate those people. Why would she come to Tongxu County to buy land for no reason?"

Su Wanwan was really curious.

"I think she might be here for King Cheng. She can't buy land in King Cheng's fiefdom. We are closer to Xinping County, especially Wanggang Village. Wanggang Village is closer to Xinping County than to Tongxu County."

Shen Yuan's hair had been dried. He took the towel from Wanwan's hand and hung it outside to dry.

"She couldn't possibly like King Cheng, and divorced the number one scholar because of him, right?"

Su Wanwan has such a damn gossipy heart, but I heard that King Cheng is 28 years old and still a disabled person, and Miss Ye is only 19 years old. This seems a little impossible.

Shen Yuan smiled gently:

"Maybe. There's no way to find out about this kind of thing. It's getting late. Don't think about it. It's time to go to bed."

Shen Yuan blew out the oil lamp and suddenly hugged Su Wanwan in his arms.

"Wanwan, I don't know if she likes Cheng Wang, but I know that I like you, very much, and I like you more and more..."

Su Wanwan felt a warm sensation in her ears after hearing the touching love words. She also felt the heat from the chest behind her. Then, a hot breath hit her ears and she couldn't help but tremble all over.

"Shen Yuan, you..."

The sound was drowned out, and Su Wanwan turned over helplessly, her hands starting to get naughty.

Huo Yuan, I like you more and more.

On the tenth day of August, the county's epidemic prevention team finally left, and the plague was basically under control, which also announced that the drought and plague were completely over. The autumn harvest was getting closer, and the streets gradually became lively.

There was also news from the county government that the children's examination at the end of September would be held as normal.

The Tongshi in this era was divided into two examinations, the county examination and the prefectural examination, which were held once a year. Those who passed the examinations were awarded the title of Tongsheng, which was equivalent to entering the imperial examination.

As for the time, the autumn harvest ends at the end of September. This arrangement is also made considering that many candidates come from farming families.

Su Wanwan didn’t know much about the ancient imperial examination system, and this was not an era in which history existed, so it was normal to have some discrepancies.

Shen Yuan went to the county town in time to register Shen Zhao. There was only one month left, but Shen Zhao was not worried at all and just worked harder than usual.

Su Wanwan also knew that Shen Zhao was a man with great potential. Although she didn't understand what the ancient imperial examinations were about, seeing how diligently Shen Zhao studied, Su Wanwan knew that he would be able to succeed.

Just remind him to pay attention to the combination of work and rest.

On this day, Su Wanwan was invited by Zhao Yan to teach how to make braised meat. Early in the morning, she took Xiao Yue'er and Shen Yunyi to the old house.

Now that the weather has turned cooler, the braised meat can be kept for two days, and the restaurant staff will definitely bring ice cubes when they come to get it. To put it bluntly, the braised meat is a cold dish.

Of course, some parts can be processed again, and they taste better after stir-frying. For example, the braised large intestine can be stir-fried with a few slices of green pepper and finally a few drops of sesame oil. It is so fragrant that you can eat two more bowls of rice.

"Wanwan, you're here, come here quickly, this is my first time, I'd be worried if you didn't come over to watch me."

When Zhao Yan saw Su Wanwan, she pulled her over directly.

She had bought the meat the day before when Shen Liang was free, and she and Shen Liang went to the town to buy it. She had also agreed with the restaurant to pick up the goods this afternoon, and she was still a little nervous.

Zhang Cuihua was also helping out. Every pound of meat was washed and cut, and the fluff on the pig's head was cleaned thoroughly.

"You guys are really clean. When running a food business, the first thing to do is to ensure hygiene. I've also told the Bai family that this braised meat can only be kept for three days at most. It's best to keep it fresh with ice."

Su Wanwan went into the kitchen again and took a look. Zhao Yan had already prepared the marinade, and it smelled right.

This braised meat is actually the simplest to make. The most important thing is the marinade. A while ago, my sister-in-law and aunt were making the marinade, and she was watching the whole process. They went to the town to buy the ingredients from Doctor Liu, and then went to the grain and oil shop to buy the rest.

If the marinade is fine, then the whole thing is fine.

A big pot has been cooked. Whether more will be needed in the future depends on whether this pot can cause a response when it is taken back.

Zhao Yan and her aunt are very confident.

Ever since eating this braised pork offal, the men in the family have been wanting to eat some every day, accompanied by a few sips of wine. If they don’t eat it for three days, they will still want it.

"Okay, that's no problem at all. As long as the ingredients are right, I still have some peppers. I'll make them a little less spicy these days. When our village's nursery base is ready next year, we'll have more peppers."

Zhang Cuihua washed her hands, but she looked anxious:

"But the peppers you have there are not meant to be saved for seeds, so you'd better pick fewer."

Su Wanwan smiled:

"I picked old peppers. You can just save the seeds. The rest won't affect your use."

Only then did Zhang Cuihua feel relieved.

"I'll go get you the chili money."

This pepper is so precious that Zhang Cuihua doesn't know how much to pay. The family doesn't have much money now, and she spent it all on the water grinder and buying so many ingredients and meat.

She took out all her money, which amounted to less than half a tael of silver.
