Chapter 66 The water bandit problem is eliminated

Mei Berry's sleep was really good. One second she was still thinking about old man Mei's problem, but the next second she fell into a dark and sweet dreamland.

Early the next morning, Mei Bei, who always slept until she woke up naturally, had a nightmare this time. Oh no, she was woken up by Fat Tiger's pressure.

"Um...Fat Tiger?"

Meiberry asked why she dreamed about things before she traveled through time?

When he opened his eyes, he saw a plump cat butt facing him again. At that moment, he was angry and funny.

"If one day you are overpowered by your shit-shocking officer, I wonder who will feed you for the rest of your life."

Meiberry pushed Fat Hu down, sat up, and turned to look out the window at the bright sky.

Because she didn't have a mobile phone or watch, Meiberry didn't even know what time it was.

Meiberry, who was already hungry, was about to get out of bed, but she smelled a strong and exciting smell on the tip of her nose.

It seems to smell like garlic, but with such a strong garlic smell, there must be a lot of it.

When she left the bedroom, sure enough, Mei Mei saw her mother sitting on a small bench in the courtyard, with a small pile of garlic in her hand.

"Where did it come from?"

Mayberry blinked, feeling like she was dreaming.

Garlic fell from the sky overnight?

"Hey, Pei Bao is awake? There is still hot breakfast in the kitchen, so eat it while it's hot. Aunt Wang's family brought the garlic over in an oxcart early in the morning and planned to send it to the town for sale. I came here to give it to Wang.

Some of my aunt's.

When I saw it, I bought these too, and the young garlic turned out to be perfect for pickling kimchi and candied garlic.”

Seeing that Mei Mei was staring at garlic in a daze, Wei Meili immediately solved the problem.

"Oh~" Mei Bei nodded, looked at the hill of garlic again, and asked silently, "Doesn't our family have a pickle jar?"

"Well, let your dad buy it tomorrow. Remember to put it in the space and bring it back later."

"OK."

After finishing breakfast in the kitchen, Mei Berry saw Aunt Wang next door coming over to talk to her mother.

It was also because of the pile of garlic that her mother bought.

"Hey, Erniu's family, it turns out you are also good at pickling vegetables. I was surprised that you bought so many!"

As soon as Aunt Wang heard that Wei Meili wanted to pickle garlic, she immediately looked at her mother with a different look. After that, she kept talking and almost praised Mei Liang's mother.

Mei Mei and Wei Meili were confused after listening for a long time, but they still smiled out of politeness and didn't dare to answer the question.

I always feel that after saying this, I will arouse suspicion again.

"Isn't this...the past few years have been peaceful and salt has become less expensive? Do some..."

After a while, Wei Meili finally figured out the reason for Aunt Wang's surprise, and quickly said that she would just make a little bit and dry the rest to make condiments.

"Oh, let me tell you, it's too exaggerated for you to pickle dozens of kilograms!"

Sure enough, after listening to Wei Meimei's words, Aunt Wang smiled awkwardly and said that she might have made a mistake.

In order to ease the embarrassment, Aunt Wang added: "I heard from my in-laws that the garlic is actually delicious pickled with sugar. But if you make this, the seasoning is more expensive than the garlic itself! My in-laws grow these in the county.

There are people here who harvest from them every year to make sweet garlic."

Speaking of the county, Wei Meili asked calmly: "The water bandits have been making trouble recently, so it will take a long time to transport so much garlic to the county, right?"

"Yeah, but I heard that the water bandits were caught!"

Aunt Wang lowered her head and said this in a low voice. Mei Bei, who was squatting aside and pulling garlic, heard this and couldn't help but look at Aunt Wang.

This aunt got the news very quickly!

Probably seeing the consternation of Mei Mei and her daughter, Aunt Wang said quite complacently: "Yesterday Huo Huo went to the town to ask, and a steward at the dock who knew our family Huo Bao specifically told him. He said, at the latest,

In five days, this pier will be fully open."

"That's really good news~" Wei Meili smiled and congratulated Aunt Wang, "Now fire and wood can do work again."

Aunt Wang also smiled, but suddenly a trace of melancholy flashed across her face. Seeing her looking like this, Wei Meili quickly asked if there was anything unhappy about her.

"The wheat is almost ripe. I originally thought that the dock would have to be closed for some time. I thought they could harvest the wheat at home~"

"Now?"

"When the farming season is busy, we can only let the fire and wood come back to work. You don't know, when the farming season is busy, there are fewer workers on the dock and there are more goods. When there is a shortage of manpower, even the price of work can rise.

Quite a few!”

Aunt Wang was naturally reluctant to let the two brothers give up their work on the dock.

"If your Erniu family had nothing to do when they harvested the wheat from the field, it would be a good idea to go there and do odd jobs for two days!" Thinking that Wei Meili's family had split up and they didn't have much land to harvest wheat this year, Aunt Wang also said

Very kindly made suggestions.

"Yeah, let's see when the time comes. Although we don't have a lot of land at home, there are still too many trivial things to do in our newly separated family~" Wei Meili sighed and said modestly.

After chatting with Aunt Wang for a while, Aunt Wang also went home to get busy.

Mei Bei's mother put a basket of garlic and asked Mei Bei to send it to Mei You.

After taking the garlic plum berries, I immediately went out. As soon as I arrived at the intersection of Meiyou's house, I saw Meiyu who seemed to have just come down from the mountain, holding a bundle of branches in her hand.

When Mei You came closer, Mei Berry took a closer look and saw that they were all raspberries.

Good guy, you just don’t have the patience to pick them one by one, so you just cut them off, right?

"Are you going to see that person again?"

Meiberry was naturally referring to Gu Pinglu.

"No, he left that night after we came down from the mountain. I went up this morning to lay some traps and pick fruits along the way."

When Meiyou said this, she lowered her eyes and did not meet Meibei's eyes, but Meibei's attention at the moment was on the hero leaving too early.

"Ah, you left so soon? Didn't he say the injury wasn't healed?"

The system has not released a plot about the separation of the male and female protagonists. Mei Berry originally thought that the time had not come yet.

result--

What? Isn’t the first separation between the male and female protagonist an important scene?

Leaving so soon?

"What's wrong? You look a little uncomfortable?"

Mei You raised her eyes and saw the sadness on Mei Bei's face when she heard that Gu Pinglu had left. Just as she was about to think more, she heard Mei Bei sigh and just say: "Oh~ It doesn't count, I just feel that some people (da ka)

It suddenly disappeared, which made me feel a bit melancholy."

Mei You: "..."

Meiyou took Meiberry home, and as she walked, she curiously asked Meiberry why she came this time.

"Ah, my mother bought a bunch of garlic this morning and gave some to you specially."

Mei Berry brought the basket in front of Mei You. Mei You glanced at the garlic in the basket and asked Mei Berry how much her mother bought.

"He weighs thirty or forty pounds."

"So many?" Mei You was shocked.

"Pickled pickles and sugared garlic~" Mayberry finished, and then added, "My mom makes this and it's super delicious!"

So, Mei You immediately asked: "Can I exchange the meat for it after it's marinated?"

Mayberry:?

Mei Berry looked at Mei You's eyes, which were always black and white, revealing cold and sharp eyes, but at this moment, they were filled with indescribable enthusiasm.

Meiberry thought about it carefully and discovered:

Mushroom Meiyu said before that she would exchange meat for this;

When it comes to eating on the mountain, Meiyou's eyes also show this;

Come again this time...

Originally, Mei Qian only thought that Mei Yuna was passionate about food, but now it seems that it should be more than that.

The heroine is actually a hidden foodie.

***

Lihu Town, at the entrance of Jishi Hall.

Mr. Xue stepped out of the door with the medicine box on his back, raised his head and glared at the men in black who were riding tall horses at the entrance of his medical clinic with a reluctant look on his face.

Immediately afterwards, he stood there with his head lowered, straightening the wrinkled clothes he had just hurriedly packed up the medicine box and came out, and complained softly about how these people's expressions could be as cold as their masters.

By the way, this group of people were speeding down the street just now and almost injured others. Thinking about it, Mr. Xue cursed these people in his heart for their rudeness.
