Seeing that everyone had left, Lu Ting hurried to help his wife clean up the dishes. As he did so, he said, "Wife, let me kill the remaining chicken for you. It just pooped and it stinks."
"You don't have to start killing. I'll do it myself this afternoon. Drink the hangover tea my dad made and get to work."
She also wanted to switch the hen that her mother-in-law had taken and throw it back into the space to raise, and then take out a plate of spicy chicken from the space to eat in the evening.
"I'm working in the office this afternoon, so it won't be a problem if I go a few minutes later."
Lu Ting was a very efficient person. After washing the dishes and putting them in the cupboard, he poured some water on the floor and cleaned the house again before leaving.
"Yan Yan, I'll get some water when I get back in the evening. You've worked hard today. You can take a two-hour nap this afternoon."
"Yeah, I understand."
She had no time to sleep. She had to check and count the medicinal herbs that Uncle Qian and Uncle Sun wanted.
If the herbs are too wet, they will easily become moldy and infested with insects. If they are too dry, they will easily break and affect the quality. When doing business with them for the first time, you must be honest. Quality is key, and shortchanging on weight is a must.
As soon as Lu Ting left, Su Yan untied the rope around the hen's feet and threw it into the cherry shed, letting it take care of the chicks and ducklings.
There is no need to dig up Platycodon grandiflorum, Polygonatum sibiricum, Gastrodia elata, and Lonicera japonica as they are in stock. This afternoon, use your mind to dig out Smilax glabra, Atractylodes macrocephala, and Scutellaria baicalensis for processing. Tomorrow morning, dig out Leonurus japonicus, Alisma orientalis, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Ephedra sinica
After selling this batch of ten or so kinds of herbs, she will sell them again next spring. The herbs in the medicinal field will be enough for her to sell for ten years.
What's more, she grows more than twenty kinds of medicinal herbs, some of which are very valuable and she will not sell them for the time being. The longer they are grown, the more valuable they become.
After she has dug up all the young medicinal herbs, she will plant another batch and they will be ready for harvesting again after a year or two.
Du Yan was busy in the space for the entire afternoon before she prepared the medicinal herbs for today.
Su Yan left the space at five o'clock, ate some fruits and rested for ten minutes, then started to make the dough.
She wanted to steam some steamed buns and steamed bread in advance tonight, and fry some fennel dough sticks.
I heated up the two dishes that I hadn't finished at noon, stir-fried a plate of vegetables, boiled five salted duck eggs, and then brought out a plate of spicy chicken from the space.
She didn't cook any extra meals in the evening. She fried the cold rice left over from lunch with sauerkraut and eggs. She estimated that the rice would not be enough for them, so she steamed not steamed buns and flower rolls, but fried a basin of finger-thick fennel dough sticks.
"Yan Yan, what's this fried dough twist you made that doesn't look like a dough twist?"
"You'll know what it is if you try it. It's fennel fritters."
"Mini youtiao? How come these youtiao are not even as thick as my finger?" Lu Ting took two and stuffed them into his mouth at the same time. "Mm, they are not as fluffy as regular youtiao, but they are very fragrant and make a great snack."
"Okay, you're eating without washing your hands. Go get your parents to come over for dinner!"
"My mother probably did it herself again."
"I told my mother-in-law that there were some leftovers from lunch and asked them not to cook for dinner. Go call your brother and your parents over."
"I understand. I'll go get two buckets of water first and then go call."
Su Yan remembered that there was an inexhaustible source of water in her space, so she could fill the water tank in the corridor at any time. However, in order to avoid suspicion from outsiders, she still had to let the man go down to fetch water occasionally.
Lu Ting went to invite them personally, but Lu Fengnian still came with Hua Min and Lu Jin.
Lu Fengnian is not stupid. He doesn't eat meat when he has it. Why should he be polite to his son?
He was polite to his parents, but the more polite he was, the more distant they became. There was really no need to be so awkward when having a meal together as a father and son.
"Xiaoyan, these fennel fried dough sticks you made are perfect for drinking."
Seeing this, Lu Ting hurriedly brought over the leftover white wine from lunch. Hua Min quickly stopped him, "Fengnian, you drink at noon and at night. You might as well just hang a wine pot around your neck."
Seeing his wife was angry, Lu Fengnian quickly lowered his posture and said, "Wife, I didn't say I wanted to drink. I was just praising Xiaoyan for the goodness of these fennel fried dough sticks. They are very suitable for drinking, and this spicy chicken."
"Dad, if you like this fried dough stick, you can take a bowl of it to me later. It will be good to eat with porridge tomorrow morning."
Hua Min waved her hand and said, "Just try it tonight. How can you eat and take it at the same time?"
"Mom, this is our home. I also steamed some steamed buns and flower rolls. You can take some back and use them for breakfast tomorrow."
When the piglet in the space grows up, she can kill it, make a bunch of three-fresh dumplings and freeze them in the refrigerator.
After taking a shower, Lu Ting hugged his wife and rolled in bed. They rolled twice. After Su Yan slept for two hours, she suddenly felt a stomachache.
Seeing Su Yan tossing and turning, Lu Ting immediately sat up and turned on the light, "Yan Yan, what's wrong?"
"My stomach hurts. I think I ate something too spicy today, and my stomach is a little upset."
Su Yan loved spicy food in her previous life. Her body in her previous life was very different from her current body. Suddenly eating so many chili peppers would definitely make her body feel uncomfortable.
It was too late and dark outside. Lu Ting was worried that his wife might be scared, so he said, "Then I'll go to the bathroom with you!"
Su Yan originally said no, but she was worried that she would really see something unclean. There were many century-old trees in their compound, which looked particularly creepy at night.
She herself is possessed by a ghost, and she doesn't know whether it is her body from her previous life. Naturally, she believes that there are ghosts in this world, but some people can see them and some cannot.
She wanted to go into the space to solve the problem, but Lu Ting was right next to her, so she had to bite the bullet and follow Lu Ting out.
Lu Ting shone the flashlight around the toilet and saw no one was there, so he left the flashlight to Su Yan and stood outside the toilet.
Suddenly, he saw someone sneaking towards the art troupe's dormitory. He suddenly broke into the toilet and Su Yan had just finished using the toilet and was about to leave.
