Both siblings were quick and efficient, and soon they had picked a lot of chilies. Bai Nuo found several large leaves to wrap all the chilies up. She hadn't brought a basket, and carrying several bags of chilies was already her limit. Bai Nuo originally wanted to pick some perilla leaves, but she hadn't finished picking the chilies. Bai Nuo was a little reluctant to leave, but she had no choice. These things were already difficult for the two of them to carry, and she couldn't carry any more.
We'll have to come in two separate trips.
"Let's go back first, and come back after we take all these things back." Bai Nuo was wearing a straw hat, and her forehead was already covered in sweat. Her hair was also wet and stuck to her scalp, making Bai Nuo very uncomfortable.
Bai Yu asked, "Are you bringing Aunt Liu?" If Aunt Liu were here, they could take as much as they wanted.
"Let's do it ourselves!" Bai Nuo shook her head. Although Aunt Liu was very kind and did everything with great care, Bai Nuo still didn't want Aunt Liu to know that such a place existed.
It looks like no one has ever been here, so let her find out on her own.
"Let's dry these too!" When Bai Nuo and Bai Yu returned home, Aunt Liu had already peeled off the roots of the bok choy one by one, washed them clean, and was now hanging the bok choy one by one on their wall.
The only two advantages of building a fence on top of the wall are that you can dry these things without having to use bamboo poles.
Bai Nuo brought a winnowing basket and a bucket, and poured a bag of chili peppers into the bucket. After being exposed to the sun for so long, the chili peppers were scalding hot.
Hearing the sound, Aunt Liu turned around and exclaimed, "So many? What are these?"
It's no wonder Aunt Liu didn't recognize it; people here generally don't eat spicy food, and everything is bland, so it's normal that she didn't recognize it.
Otherwise, so many things wouldn't be growing so wildly on the mountain.
"Just some seasoning!" Bai Nuo said casually. Seeing that Aunt Liu was still busy, he didn't make things difficult for her and started doing it himself. He poured out several packets of chili peppers, which filled about half a bucket. After pouring all the chili peppers in, Bai Nuo went to the well and drew some cool well water to wash the chili peppers. Then he put them in a winnowing basket and put them in the sun to dry.
Drying chili peppers into dried chili peppers is neither too troublesome nor too meticulous, requiring them to be turned over from time to time, just like drying grain.
When Bai Nuo moved the chili peppers aside to dry, Aunt Liu also set up her bok choy to dry. The chili peppers and bok choy were both in the yard, and the view from the main room was quite spectacular.
At least that's the impression Lu Ying got when she came back. When she went out, there was nothing there, but when she came back, there was so much stuff. Looking at all these crops, Lu Ying felt even more that Bai Nuo was just a peasant girl. But what was the Second Master planning to do?
He looked at the bundle in his hand with a puzzled expression. Inside were several sets of clothes he had just bought, as instructed by the Second Master.
There are no other girls here, and the Second Master certainly doesn't have any other lovers.
It could only be bought for Bai Nuo.
But why buy it for Bai Nuo?
They're not familiar with each other either.
Without daring to think too much, Lu Ying took these things and hurriedly walked towards Hu Mingmei's room without entering the main room.
"Second Master, the things have been bought. What should we do with them?" Although Lu Ying knew that Hu Mingmei had bought these things for Bai Nuo, he didn't dare to give them away without Hu Mingmei's permission.
"Just take it out and throw it away!" Who knew Hu Mingmei would say that!
