Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte
Chapter 138 Potato Feast
"Nothing!" Song Jinshu snorted and walked away arrogantly.
Leaving Lu Ruoyu alone in the wind, it seemed as if he had offended her invisibly!
"Ugh!"
The air is filled with helplessness...
Half a month after Lu Chuan and others left, Jingyang County welcomed another major event.
October has arrived and Jingyang County has begun this year's autumn harvest!
Lu Ruoyu was very busy. He needed to arrange for yamen runners to collect tax grain from the village after the autumn harvest, and he also needed to arrange people to collect grain from the government fields.
Song Jinshu was not idle either. She asked Shen Fenghua, who had nothing to do every day, to help her with the work.
Because her official land also needed to be harvested, and because of the autumn harvest, there were few odd jobs in the county, so she had to take Shen Fenghua to the fields to harvest in person.
The two men worked hard for the whole morning and were exhausted as they leaned against the edge of the field. Looking at the potatoes that had been harvested, which were less than one-tenth of the harvest, a sense of despair rose in their hearts.
Song Jinshu lifted up the blister on her palm caused by friction from harvesting. It was filled with water. She stretched out a finger to touch it and grimaced in pain.
"Haha...how stupid."
Shen Fenghua's low mocking voice sounded beside him. Song Jinshu glanced at him dissatisfiedly, only to see the person next to him lying leisurely on the edge of the field and taking a nap.
It was as if he was not here to work, but to take a vacation.
Compared to himself who was exhausted as a dog, the person opposite him was still leisurely and elegant, which made Song Jinshu jealous.
She gritted her teeth and wanted to fight back, but then she thought that this was her own private land after all, and it was good enough that the other party was willing to help her.
As for how to do his work, she didn't seem to have the right to tell him.
Shen Fenghua, who didn't get a response for a long time, opened one eye and glanced at her.
What I saw was Song Jinshu turning his head away with a wronged look, blowing the bubbles in his hand again and again.
He was stunned for a moment, thinking back to what he had just said about her being stupid, and suddenly felt a little regretful. Was she angry?
According to convention, the two should have been arguing with each other by now!
Shen Fenghua's eyes darkened, and with a slight hint of flattery, he asked, "What's wrong? Are you too stupid to speak?"
"Humph! Who are you calling a fool?"
"Stupid pig scolding you!"
"Puchi...Hahaha, of course I know it's you, you idiot, scolding me!"
Song Jinshu smiled triumphantly, and she felt even happier when she saw the frustrated Shen Fenghua.
"You only know how to talk nonsense!" Shen Fenghua sighed helplessly and let her play word games.
It’s normal for her to be so lively!
It was not until sunset that the two men dragged their tired bodies back to the county government office.
After a simple meal, they both went home to rest. Song Jinshu took a bath and finally fell into a good sleep.
The next day, the Song sisters strongly insisted on going to work together. Song Jinshu couldn't resist, so she only left Song Yunbing, who was about to get married, at home to cook, and then took the others to work.
They did this for three days.
Here, Lu Ruoyu finally had some free time and mobilized the idle yamen runners to go to Zhitian together.
After working for ten consecutive days, all the potatoes were finally pulled out by the roots. Looking at the potatoes piled up like a small mountain, Song Jinshu felt a great sense of accomplishment.
When she smiled, her two rows of big teeth were exposed, which made her look even darker!
The Song sisters' faces also became darker, and even Lu Ruoyu's neck and face were not the same color.
But there was one person who stood out from the crowd, as white as ever. Shen Fenghua looked at Song Jinshu, whose eyes were red with jealousy, in confusion.
"Are your eyes uncomfortable?"
Lu Ruoyu also looked at Song Jinshu. Seeing her bloodshot eyes, she frowned and said, "I'll go get the doctor!"
"Hey! No, no need!" Song Jinshu hurriedly grabbed Lu Ruoyu who was about to go out.
She sighed helplessly. Couldn't these two fools see that she was jealous?
"Call me if you feel uncomfortable!" Lu Ruoyu said worriedly.
The Song sisters also came over and took turns to care for her. Song Jinshu was numb and moved. What a sweet burden~
"Wang Er, call a few yamen runners to help me weigh all these potatoes tomorrow!"
Wang Er bowed respectfully and agreed. Looking at the full warehouse of grain, his eyes became wet with excitement.
Although they have never eaten this food called potatoes.
But just looking at the output, it tastes as bad as shit, but it is life-saving food in years of famine.
Song Jinshu looked around at everyone, and without exception, everyone was very excited.
She narrowed her eyes and smiled, saying, "You all should stay for dinner today. We'll have a potato feast!"
"Okay! I'll listen to you, sir!"
Song Jinshu looked at Song Yunqing and the others again: "Third sister, come and help me!"
There are so many people, she can't handle it alone!
Song Yunqing nodded in agreement and followed Song Jinshu to the kitchen with a smile.
After another round of hard work, Song Jinshu tried all the potato recipes in his mind.
In order to reward everyone, she bought a few pounds of pork with her own money and cooked meat dishes.
The aroma from the kitchen filled the entire county government office, and every yamen runner had an expression of anticipation on his face.
Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone, pots of food were served on the table.
Because there were too many people, the table was placed in the open space in front of the front hall.
Except for the yamen runners who came to help, every yamen runner on duty at the county government office today could sit at the table and eat.
Song Jinshu was worried that these men would drink, and each of his sisters was as beautiful as a flower, so he was worried that they would be reckless and offend his sisters.
So he prepared two tables in the backyard for his younger sister and aunts.
As she was the county magistrate and the host of the banquet, she naturally had to eat in the front.
Looking at the potatoes of various shapes and spicy potatoes on the table, they could no longer sit still.
Everyone swallowed their saliva and waited eagerly for Song Jinshu to start.
Song Jinshu reluctantly picked up the crispy potatoes she had fried and said, "Let's all sit down and eat! Don't be restrained!"
At the command, everyone started moving!
"this is delicious!"
"Wow! This fried one is even better!"
“…I think this fried one tastes better!”
“I think it’s steamed…”
In less than a moment, everyone was selecting their favorite potatoes from various cooking methods on the table. Without exception, everyone had a satisfied smile on their face.
Song Jinshu smiled happily, thinking that her potatoes would sell like hotcakes!
Lu Ruoyu and Shen Fenghua, who were sitting on her left and right, ate several dishes before their movements began to slow down.
"I didn't expect potatoes to be so delicious! And they can be used to make so many dishes!" Lu Ruoyu exclaimed.
Shen Fenghua's eyes lit up as he picked up a piece of crispy potato chips with chopsticks: "Not only can they be steamed, boiled, or fried, they can also be deep-fried to make crispy chips, and each one has a different flavor!"
"Hahaha... How delicious! Not only that, but you can also roast the potatoes! Anyway, as long as they're cooked, you can eat them!"
Song Jinshu raised his head proudly, looked around, and waited to be praised.
How could they not know what she was thinking?
In her expectation, she praised Song Jinshu again and again, praising her to the sky.
