Chapter 555: Visiting
Qiao Xuan was busy with this matter all day. When she returned home in the evening, Yang Xiaoni and the others had already returned from the flower field. When she saw her, Yang Xiaoni couldn't wait to share gossip with her.
What about Ding Jiahuai's daughter who was a concubine of Mr. Zhao in the city? She's back.
It was not uncommon to be a concubine in this era, Qiao Xuan herself was still a concubine. However, after she traveled through time, she had not lived the life of a concubine, nor had she seen anyone around her being a concubine.
When I first heard this news, I was more or less surprised, and it also felt a bit strange.
But she didn't think much about it and just chatted with Yang Xiaoni, Yan, Xu and others for a few words.
I have been a concubine for several years and have never returned home. Today, she came back on a special day. I heard that the Zhao family specially sent her back in a carriage and brought many gifts for her parents. She also had maids to serve her. This is really a strange thing.
The tea seedlings were planted very quickly today. At this rate, all the remaining tea seedlings could be transplanted and planted in less than two days.
Afterwards, Qiao Xuan planned to go there again in two days to use her wood-related abilities to ensure the survival rate of the transplanted tea seedlings.
Everyone has been very busy recently, doing various things every day, so their appetites are very good.
So Qiao Xuan was the one who cooked every day.
I steamed the sausage today, washed the cured duck with warm water and chopped it into pieces, then stir-fried it with garlic sprouts, shredded ginger, garlic cloves and dried chilies.
Then I braised two big crucian carps.
There were still quite a few small river shrimps that were dried the day before, so I cooked them all tonight. I stir-fried the shrimps with fresh and tender spring leeks. The shrimps were distinctly green and red, and extremely fresh and fragrant.
Then make some stir-fried wolfberry sprouts and some cold-mixed shepherd's purse, and you're done.
What the family looks forward to most every day is this dinner.
The food is delicious and rich in fat. Even if you have been busy working all day, a meal like this is enough to soothe your stomach.
Take a hot bath and feel relaxed all over, rest for a night and feel full of energy again.
The next morning, Qiao Xuan, Xiaoqi, Lixia and Liqiu went to the nursery again to pull out all the tea seedlings and tie them into bundles. After breakfast, they asked Xiaoqi to send a batch to Zhangjia Village first.
Not long after Xiao Qi left, Qiao Xuan and the others went to pull up the seedlings. They should be able to finish all of them today and send them off again in the afternoon. Zhangjia Village will be able to plant early tomorrow morning, so there will be no need to send them off again.
The seedling bed needs to be turned over and tidied up. Well, it's almost time to plant watermelons.
Peppers, tomatoes, eggplants, beans, pumpkins, winter melons, chayote, etc. can also be planted.
Of course, Qiao Xuan would not plant so many vegetables in this garden. She would only plant watermelons and tomatoes. For the rest, there is a vegetable garden.
There are no more fruit tree seedlings to add this year, and these are enough for food.
Peaches, apricots, plums and pears have all bloomed and are bearing small green bean-like fruits. The loquats have also bloomed and are bearing fruit. The fruits are getting fuller day by day, and the bunches of them are growing particularly well. In another two months, the trees will be full of golden color. Just thinking about it makes me sweet.
In the yard, Fang was tidying up the yard. A pair of grandchildren were squatting on the ground beside the flower bed playing. Suddenly, she heard someone knocking on the door. Fang raised her head, answered, dusted her clothes, and went to open the door.
"Auntie Fang, hello!" The woman outside the door was in her early twenties. She was wearing a pink silk embroidered dress and had her hair tied up in a bun. She was dressed very beautifully.
There is also this little maidservant by her side.
