The Little Landlord of Transmigration

Chapter 2 2. Wheat seedlings

Now that they all agreed, they all left with Xu Lingyuan.Just walking, someone suddenly took the wheat seedlings from Xu Lingyuan's hands, and he looked in the blink of an eye, and the wheat seedlings were in A Qi's hands again, and he was looking at Xu Lingyuan with some embarrassment.Xu Lingyuan just said thank you and let him take it.

After spending the whole morning with Xu Lingyuan, they got to know each other a little better, and they didn't feel restrained anymore, and the place they were going to was the big courtyard that they had never been to before. It was like a novel adventure, which made them happy again.

They were excited because the place where Xu Lingyuan lived was different from the houses in the village and had a sense of mystery.

The houses in the village are adobe houses covered with thatch, without high walls and gates that are always closed, but connected with neighbors.When eating at your own door, you can chat with your neighbors without hindrance, and you can see what is in the neighbor's bowl when you look up.

And this courtyard outside the village is tightly surrounded by tall trees and walls. Its always closed gate is like a deep and interesting riddle, which makes them scratch their heads and guess all kinds of imaginable answers. I never went in to see it clearly, because it belonged to the landlord who lived in the county, and others were not allowed to enter casually.

They watched Xu Lingyuan knock on the door at the door, and suddenly realized that there were other people inside, and immediately felt a little overwhelmed. Seeing Xu Lingyuan couldn't help laughing, seeing how cautious they were, they were completely different from when they teased him. different.When they heard someone coming to open the door, they all rushed behind Xu Lingyuan, as if his thin body had suddenly become the safest cover.

It was the maid Hongying who came to open the door, who moved here with Xu Lingyuan from the city.Xu Lingyuan took the wheat seedlings from Ah Qi's hand and handed them to her. Hearing that Ah Mu was washing rice, he asked Hongying to tell her to make more, and then fried the bundle of wheat seedlings with eggs.After speaking, he ignored her who was confused, and went to the main room with them.

Several people followed behind him, looking back in fear from time to time to look at the bundle of wheat seedlings being sent to the kitchen.Xu Lingyuan went to get some tea by himself, and then went into the back room to get some dried fruit and loose sugar and put them on the table. Their eyes lit up first, and then their outstretched hands paused, as if they remembered the bundle of leeks again, so they sneaked uneasily I looked at Xu Lingyuan and saw that he was very kind, so I took some and looked around curiously.

Seeing that they were still somewhat restrained, in order to ease the atmosphere, before the meal, Xu Lingyuan asked them some random questions to pass the time.

"Master Xu, you came at the wrong time. It would be nice if you came in summer. Now it's cold and there's nothing to do. In summer, we can go down the river to paddle and catch fish..."

"If you're lucky, you can even pick up duck eggs and goose eggs!"

"You can also use bamboo cages to catch shrimp and eels."

"It tastes delicious when baked..."

Seeing them talking happily one by one, Xu Lingyuan knew that his thoughts were right.Unfamiliar places can make people feel uncomfortable, but good topics can quickly shorten the distance between each other.

"Master, the meal is ready." Hongying came in from the kitchen and said.

When the few people saw someone coming in, they were like mussels that were suddenly attacked. They closed their mouths tightly, and then thought of scrambled eggs with leeks, and became even more silent. They only prayed secretly in their hearts, Some people are so stupid that they really use wheat seedlings to cook, and they may have been thrown to pigs long ago.

"Then serve it up and eat it. I'm a little hungry after shopping all morning." Xu Lingyuan pretended not to see it, and said to Hongying.

"Hey, I'm going to fetch the hand sanitizer first."

"Let's put the basin outside, let's go out and wash."

"it is good."

They were not used to washing their hands before eating, but at this moment they were only concerned about their guilty conscience, so they obediently followed Xu Lingyuan to wash, without feeling uncomfortable at all.

By the time they finished washing their hands, the food was already set.When they saw the plate of scrambled eggs with barley seedlings on the table, they all showed a stomach ache.Fortunately, although Ah Mu didn't know why Xu Lingyuan asked her to do this, the eggs were all big and big, so that the eggs could be picked out and eaten without wasting.In fact, the few people seemed to be able to understand Eminem's intentions. In the end, only the untouched fried wheat seedlings remained in a dish, and there was no sign of eggs at all.

"Didn't you tell me that scrambled eggs with leeks are the best? Why don't you eat them? I don't like leeks. You can eat them. You're welcome." When they were almost finished eating, Xu Lingyuan looked at no one caring. Mai Miao said.After speaking, seeing their tense expressions immediately made me feel much happier.

"Well...we are all full and can't eat any more." It was Agui who had the quickest response.

"Well, that's it." After hearing what he said, the eating speed of the few people immediately increased a lot, and they slurred their mouths while desperately pushing the rice into their mouths, for fear that if they were a step too slow, the fried barley seedlings would automatically run to theirs. bowl to go.

"Oh, I was originally brought back because you love to eat. Could it be that the cooking is not delicious? It's a pity that you don't even want to taste it." Xu Lingyuan pretended to be very disappointed and said.

"Uh...we are really full, really." Agui put down the bowl and chopsticks, looked at the wheat seedlings on the plate, and said bravely.

"Forget it, it's a waste. It's all my fault that I didn't let you eat in advance. Let's talk about it next time." Xu Lingyuan still didn't intend to let them go just like this. It was so interesting to see their tangled expressions, let him I can fully understand how they felt when they teased him.

"..." Although they were a little guilty, they still insisted on refusing to move their chopsticks.

Xu Lingyuan didn't want to embarrass them any more, and was about to ask them what they were going to do after dinner. Before he opened his mouth, he suddenly saw a pair of chopsticks sticking into the plate, and picked up a chopsticks of wheat seedlings, causing Xu Lingyuan and the others to turn to the chopsticks. The master looked.When Ah Qi saw that others were looking at him, he couldn't eat with the chopsticks he raised to his mouth, nor did he put them down, he was in a dilemma.

"Aqi, you're stupid too, that's Mai Miao!" Someone reminded quickly, completely unaware that he had slipped his mouth.

"How is it possible, didn't you say it was leeks?" Xu Lingyuan asked, pretending to be surprised while holding back a smile.

"It's all Agui who lied to you, it has nothing to do with us!" Seeing that the lie was exposed, everyone except Aqi who was holding the wheat seedlings put the blame on Agui.

Hearing this, Xu Lingyuan turned his gaze to Agui, but Agui seemed to have not recovered from the shock at this time, and did not respond to their gaze at all, so Xu Lingyuan turned his gaze to Aqi again.

"They are not fooled, why do you want to eat?" Xu Lingyuan asked curiously, the other party looked like an honest child, could it be that he was too strong just now, right?

"It's our fault to lie to you, and you have good intentions." Seeing that Xu Lingyuan was not angry, the other party glanced at the wheat seedlings in the bowl and said, then seemed to hesitate and said, "Master Xu, don't you have pigs at home? "

"I just came here not long ago." Xu Lingyuan was a little confused by his question, so he didn't know what the connection between the two was, but he shook his head and replied.

"Then can I take it back to feed the pigs? This way it won't be wasted," A Qi asked him seriously.

Xu Lingyuan didn't expect him to be so thoughtful, so he nodded happily. After all, it was fried with oil, so it would be a waste to throw it away.

When they finished talking, Agui was still staring at his round eyes. Xu Lingyuan felt that his expression at this time could be expressed in this way: this is unscientific!

His father clearly said that people in the county ate meat every day, but he had never seen a pig run, let alone leeks and wheat seedlings.As the young master of the landlord's family, Xu Lingyuan knew these things, which is so strange!Could it be that the landlord's family has too many children, so they have no money to eat as well as other urbanites?That's right, seeing that Young Master Xu is as thin as a sick child, he must not be able to grab delicious food. Maybe the landlord likes his younger brothers and sisters more, just like his family, let him do all the work, and do everything wrong Beat and scold him first, but the younger siblings always eat the delicious food first. Those group of delicious ghosts never remember to keep it for their elder brother, and they always come up to grab him.

He was even sent here alone, so much more pitiful than himself.Agui seems to be completely immersed in his own imagination, adding in the unfair treatment he usually receives, and feels more empathy for Xu Lingyuan's misfortune.The others all looked at Agui with expressions of begging for an explanation and the truth. For some reason, Agui, who always knew the most, was dumbfounded this time.

"Agui, what are you all planning to do this afternoon?" Seeing Agui staring at him, Xu Lingyuan asked.But he didn't know that Agui not only found the reason for him to know Mai Miao on his own, but also turned him from a big young master into an outcast who didn't love his mother and didn't love him, completely ignoring that Xu Lingyuan was also teasing them .

"After walking for a whole morning, there is nothing to go shopping. Master Xu, are you tired? Why don't you rest here in the afternoon? We've never been here before, okay?" Seeing that Xu Lingyuan didn't blame them , still very kindly, Agui thought about it for others once in a while, thinking that with Xu Lingyuan's small body, after walking around with them all morning, he must be almost exhausted. It's much more interesting, you have to take a good look at it, so you can show it off to the people in the village when you go back, so I discussed it with him.

"It's fine if you like it, I'll rest for a while, you can do whatever you want." Hearing what Agui said, he didn't have any objections. Now he rarely walks so much at one time, let alone recovering from a serious illness, it really feels a little bit I can't take it anymore.

So Xu Lingyuan sat in the yard basking in the sun, while Agui and the others took a closer look at the whole yard.

The house surrounded by walls is a bit like a courtyard house. The main house faces south. There are three rooms in total. The middle one is the largest and is the main room for entertaining guests and meals. A door communicates with it, separated only by thick cloth curtains and bamboo curtains.The one on the right is where Xu Lingyuan lives now, and the one on the left is temporarily vacant.

There are also two rows of houses on the left and right sides under the front porch of the main house, each with four rooms.The one on the left is vacant except for a small servant, and only one on the right is vacant. The rest are the warehouse and kitchen for storing grain, etc., as well as the residences of E'Mu and Hongying's mother and daughter.There are also two concierge rooms, one is for Old Man Wang who only comes to watch the yard at night, and the other is for stacking firewood and other sundries.There is also a well in the yard.

There is also a row of elm trees planted behind the house. The trees are tall. If it is summer, the shade of the trees should be able to cover half of the roof behind.There is a miscellaneous tree outside the fence behind the yard.Since the whole yard is padded with soil, outside the gate, it forms a slope with the road next to it.

Several people went around in and out several times, and after having fun, they saw Hongying and her mother-in-law carrying firewood to the kitchen, so they consciously helped move together, and the space for firewood in the kitchen was quickly filled.Just playing around like this, I didn't realize that the sun was going down, and I didn't go home for almost a whole day. I was afraid of being scolded when I went back, and I was too embarrassed to stay for dinner. They refused Xu Lingyuan's persuasion, and they trotted home went.

"It seems that the young master is right to go out for a walk. Your spirit has improved a lot today, young master." Amu watched them leave, and said to Xu Lingyuan after closing the door.

"Really? I also feel much better today. It seems that it is better to go out for a walk more in the future." Xu Lingyuan echoed.

"It's good to take a walk, but young master, you are just in good condition. It's still a bit cold today, so you should be more careful." Hongying said worriedly.

"Hongying is right, young master, it seems that Changsheng will not come back today, eat dinner early, take a good rest after eating, and cover the quilt thicker at night, it is better to sweat a little, if you get sick again If it falls, it will be troublesome." After talking, Ah Mu went to the kitchen with Hongying to prepare dinner, and Xu Lingyuan could only go back to the house to rest.
