Chapter 209 Buying rice in the rain and listening to gossip, autumn is coming and Yu Mo is busy
For several days, Lan County was hit by heavy rain. The mud wall of a house in Xifang District collapsed, killing several chickens; someone else's house was leaking, and they were repairing the tiles in the rain; the window of Lin Mingxuan's warehouse was broken, and rainwater flowed in, causing half a bag of rice to mold.
"We'll go buy rice, and you two go buy vegetables." After work at the clinic that day, Ding Xirui assigned tasks.
"Okay, we'll pick you up after we buy the groceries." Lin Mingxuan said.
Ding Xirui and Banxia came to the grain store, put their umbrellas under the eaves, and stepped in.
A young man straightened up. It was Arong.
"Doctor Ding, are you buying rice?"
"Yes. The rice at home is moldy and can't be eaten."
"Okay. How much do you want?"
"This bag should hold about a bushel of rice."
"it is good."
Ah Rong called a servant to pack and weigh the rice. Suddenly a gust of wind blew and the umbrella was blown away.
"My umbrella..." Ding Xirui and the other ran out and finally caught up with the umbrella at the entrance of an alley. Ding Xirui quickly shook off the water and raised the umbrella, but the two were already soaked.
A shop next door opened and a woman wearing a bamboo hat walked out.
"Do you want to come in and take shelter from the rain? Both of you are soaked. Come in and wipe yourself dry before you leave," said the woman.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. No need. We'll go home now."
The two men nodded to their sister-in-law and quickly returned to the grain store.
A Rong stood at the door, holding the weighed rice.
"Doctor Ding, you'd better not go to that store." A Rong said.
"What's wrong?" The two were very confused.
"That woman is not good..."
"But she seems very kind. She even asked us to take shelter from the rain just now," said Ding Xirui.
"Doctor Ding, they are all liars. Her husband is gone, and she has had affairs with many men. Every few days, people come to her house to scold her, saying that she is a vixen who seduces people... Anyway, don't mess with her."
"Okay, thank you Arong for reminding me."
"You're too polite, Doctor Ding."
After saying this, A Rong walked back to the counter and continued to work.
Ding Xirui looked back at the store and frowned. Was it because of the pressure of life, or some other reason? Was it true, or was it just a rumor? What woman would be willing to endure such a bad reputation?
Not long after, Lin Mingxuan and Nanxing came over carrying baskets of vegetables.
"What happened to you two? Your clothes are so wet?" Lin Mingxuan took out a handkerchief and wiped the rain off Ding Xirui's face. Nanxing paused and handed his handkerchief to Banxia.
"I don't want it." Banxia smiled and waved her hand.
Several people walked home together. Ding Xirui hesitated and finally did not say anything.
The rain finally stopped, and the air was cool, like autumn. The pumpkin leaves in the yard gradually turned yellow, and the "beards" of the few corns that remained turned black and dry. The jasmine flowers only had a few buds left, and the pace of their blooming slowed down.
Ding Xirui picked two flowers, washed them, and put them in the teapot. The jasmine fragrance wafted in the air along with the hot steam.
At this moment, An Yumo, who was far away in Luocheng County, was shrouded in a hot mist.
She is making various casseroles. After hearing Ding Xirui talk about the various pots in the "Tianyuxue" restaurant in Qizhou City last year, she wanted to try them, but she had no time. At the beginning of autumn this year, she spent her lunch break in the kitchen every day, experimenting with various foods and stewing soup ingredients.
The taste of the vegetarian pot was difficult to adjust, and it didn't taste very satisfying. She bought a bunch of dried goods and prepared to try it again.
Dried shiitake mushrooms, dried chicken mushrooms, and dried porcini mushrooms, the latter two of which made her wallet "bleed". Soak, slice, add onion, ginger, and garlic to stir-fry, then put into a casserole to stew, the fusion of several mushrooms, the taste is really out. This soup base is good for both hot pot and meat.
It really is a "mountain delicacy". An Yumo sighed silently.
Taking off her apron, she walked out of the kitchen and into the front hall, where An Yumo saw Zheng Shihui.
"Miss Zheng, what brings you here?"
"Would you like to go see the house?"
"Okay." An Yumo felt excited.
The two of them got on the carriage and arrived at the gate of the future women's college. Manager Liao, who was in charge of the construction, came forward and bowed.
"Miss, please."
"Thank you, Manager Liao." Zheng Shihui nodded slightly.
"The two original doors were too small. According to your wishes, they were demolished and a new gate was built. This is it."
Manager Liao pointed to a door frame and said.
"Okay. Let's go inside and take a look."
"Okay. Look, the two rows of houses on the right are where the students of the academy will study in the future, and the left is where they will learn various skills."
"Ah."
"The open space in the middle and back is going to be a lotus pond, and then some rocks, flowers and trees will be placed there to build a pavilion."
"Lotus pond? How do you bring water here?" Zheng Shihui asked.
"Make a small pond, so fill it directly with well water."
"There's no need to build a lotus pond. It's time-consuming and labor-intensive. It attracts mosquitoes in the summer, and the stagnant water smells bad. It's better to build a small pavilion."
"Okay." Manager Liao nodded repeatedly.
Several people continued to move forward.
"According to your instructions, a few new rooms have been added here, which will be used as study rooms and storehouses in the future; the rooms near the courtyard wall... are toilets."
"it is good."
"Manager Liao, where do the teachers in the academy usually rest?" An Yumo asked.
"On the second floor on the right." Manager Liao said, pointing to the room.
"Thank you."
"Miss An, you are so polite. By the way, the carpenter has been hired, so we can start making the furniture for the house."
"Okay, come find me at the restaurant tomorrow, bring your people, and I'll take you to get the wood."
"Yes."
The academy already had a rough outline, and An Yumo and Zheng Shihui were imagining what the future would look like.
Will she still live here in the future? Zheng Shihui was suddenly filled with worry.
Today, her brother asked her to go to Qizhou City to attend a poetry meeting, but she refused again. She was used to seeing flattery, and she didn't want to be the one being criticized. She hated marriage!
The two men left the yard, walked into a teahouse, followed the waiter into the private room on the second floor, and sat down in front of the window.
"Yumo, how is your marriage going?" Zheng Shihui asked.
"What marriage..." An Yumo blushed.
"Don't hide it from me, look who that is?" Zheng Shihui stretched out her hand and pointed.
Not far away, Qin Xiaofeng and his men were patrolling the streets.
"Ah? Why are you all..." An Yumo became panicked.
"Turns out it's true, hahaha." Zheng Shihui laughed out loud.
"you……"
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Zheng Shihui stopped laughing and continued, "Juzi saw you two coming out of the martial arts hall together a few days ago. Although you were only together for a short while and it seemed like nothing happened, when you parted, Captain Qin stood there and stared at you for a long time."
"Hateful." An Yumo glanced at her and poured a cup of tea.
"Your family doesn't know?"
"do not know."
"Did the people in the restaurant not notice anything?"
"I think should not be."
An Yumo narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking back, but didn't think of anything unusual.
"Did he go to your house to propose marriage?" Zheng Shihui asked.
"Wait a minute."
"Why wait?"
"We just expressed our feelings to each other not long ago, but I don't want to settle things so quickly. I always feel that it's not the right time to talk about marriage. Besides, I still want to stay in the restaurant for a while longer."
