I, the fox clan, Arita!

That night, Wei Xiuya habitually waited for the little fox to climb the window, but the glass lamp in the room was burning until late at night, and he couldn't wait for the little fox.

Wei Xiuya frowned, feeling worried.

Little things can't really be hunted by people, can they?

But Wei Xiuya felt that with the little fox's usual cleverness, he shouldn't be caught so easily.

Wei Ba came to urge Wei Xiuya to rest, so he had no choice but to turn off the lights, he wanted to see if the little fox would come tomorrow, and if he didn't come, he would ask Lingshu.

The little fox Lingshu, who was missed by others, was sleeping on the floor of his godmother's house at the moment, but he slept very restlessly, even tossing and turning in his sleep.

It's not that Lingshu doesn't want to become a fox and rub against Wei Xiuya's bed, but because his hands are being bandaged and the bandages will fall off if they get smaller, and secondly, he is worried that Wei Xiuya will see his fox's injured front paw Afterwards, the secret will be revealed and the identity will be guessed.

Lingshu doesn't have the guts to reveal that he is a fox clan, he will definitely be caught as a monster and burned to death!

In the daytime the next day, Lingshu still asked her godmother to handle the ingredients, and then used her intact right hand to cook for Wei Xiuya and Lin Heyi.

Naturally, he still didn't climb Wei Xiuya's window at night.

On the third day, Wei Xiuya finally couldn't hold back any longer, and asked Lingshu during lunch, "Xiao Shu, did you raise a little fox?"

"Uh..." Ling Shu paused as he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up vegetables. He didn't expect Wei Xiuya to think that the little fox was raised by himself, but that's good, so he won't doubt himself.

Lingshu blinked his eyes, pretending to be innocent and talking nonsense: "You have a son, Master Wei, have you seen him? I haven't seen him for many days."

"Well, I've seen it," Wei Xiuya nodded, "A few days ago I saw it every day, but these days it suddenly disappeared. Do you know where it went?"

Wow--

Ling Shu thought secretly, does Wei Xiuya miss me?

It's only been two days since I went to bed with you and you miss me that much?

Lingshu coughed lightly to hide his joy, sat up straight, and said nonsense solemnly: "Usually he runs out to play by himself, and sometimes he won't see you for ten and a half months. When he gets tired of playing, he will naturally came back."

Hearing Lingshu's words so firmly, Wei Xiuya felt relieved, and was no longer as worried as before.

Now he has someone he cares more about, and that is the boy in front of him.

It's a pity that Ling Shu was busy and couldn't stop for a moment, but Wei Xiuya himself had to recuperate from his injuries and couldn't move. He could only talk to Ling Shu during the three meals a day.

Wei Xiuya's eyes fell on his injured leg, and when his leg recovered——

Before Lingshu's hand injury was completely healed, he never turned into a fox to look for Wei Xiuya again. Instead, he became familiar with Wei Xiuya in human form, and his speech became a little more casual.

He used to call Wei Xiuya "Young Master Wei, Mr. Wei", but now he calls him by his first name.

After more than ten days, the house in the backyard was completed. On the day when the work was finished, there was a lot of excitement in the small courtyard of Yan's family.

Because Lingshu wanted to spare a room for Dr. Lin at that time, so he built another room, and built five rooms in total. The two rooms for people are spacious and bright, and the three rooms for growing bean sprouts have open windows. Small and tall.

Lin Heyi and Liangliang moved into the new room that day.

But Liangliang was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he walked around in his new room, touching here and there, all the furniture was new, there were desks and a small bookshelf, but at night, the child didn't Dare to sleep alone, still ran to the parents' room to squeeze.

There were three empty big houses left, which were covered with shelves and filled with wooden boxes. Lingshu soaked some soybean seeds every day, planted some today, and planted some tomorrow, slowly filling up the big houses.

Now the wound on his hand has scabbed over, and the bean sprouts in his room, which are full of sand, have matured batch after batch and are ready to be harvested.

You have to find a way to sell it.

Bean sprouts are planted in rotation and can be harvested every day. Now that it’s winter, they can be stored for a few more days. If the weather is hot, if they can’t be eaten and sold every day, they will all be wasted.

At noon today, Lingshu decided to use the mature bean sprouts in the first wooden box to cook, and gave the family and helpers a taste.

There are many ways to make bean sprouts, but since it is a big pot of rice, we can only choose the simplest one, fried pork with bean sprouts.

For Wei Xiuya, it was a bean sprouts egg roll with a complicated process.

When eating at noon, the green bean sprouts were served on the table, which immediately attracted a surprised discussion from the helpers.

Tian Jinxiang was acquainted with everyone in Yan's family, and said with a quick smile, "Oh, what delicious food did Lingshu make again? The green sprouts of this vegetable look so cute!"

The bean sprouts in the bowl are about fifteen centimeters long, with white jade-like stalks, green leaf sprouts that are about to drip, and they are fried with shredded pork, exuding a faint aroma of beans.

In this kind of winter when green vegetables are hardly seen and only radish and cabbage can be eaten every day, such a bowl of fried bean sprouts makes people want to stretch their chopsticks just by looking at it.

Someone asked: "Why does this dish look like bean sprouts to me? But aren't bean sprouts all yellow sprouts?"

Lingshu smiled and said, "This one is indeed made from beans, but it's not made by the method of ordinary bean sprouts. I named it 'Lv Ruyi'."

According to historical records, people in ancient times did call bean sprouts "Ruyi vegetables" because the bean sprouts looked like a jade ruyi, and the Shasheng bean sprouts grown in Lingshu were green sprouts, so he stole them. Laziness, just call Lu Ruyi directly.

Everyone praised again and again: "This name is really nice! Don't say it, this bean sprouts really look like Ruyi!"

"Don't talk about it, everyone, just try it." Ling Shu said.

In fact, the helpers couldn't wait to eat it for a long time, but when they saw this new dish, no one was ashamed to start it first, but now they heard Lingshu's words, and they all ate it unceremoniously.

The taste of green bean sprouts is different from that of ordinary bean sprouts. It is not only crisp and tender, but also chewy.

"This dish is really delicious! Brother Ling is really smart!"

"Hey, the guy in my family stews cabbage all day long. Now I don't want to eat cabbage when I see it. I would rather eat white rice, gnaw dry steamed buns and then pickles. If you want me to say that the shopkeeper Ling is generous, it's winter, and I'm afraid it's too late to grow this green ruyi." It's very strenuous."

"Shopkeeper Ling, how do we grow this vegetable? Can we grow it? We don't want too much, just grow a little, as long as we can change our appetite at ordinary times."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't hear what people in the city said. Vegetables are grown in greenhouses in winter. Is that something we can afford?"

Listening to everyone's chatter, Lingshu smiled and said: "This dish is not expensive, it costs two cents a catty, and it can be fried in a big bowl. If you want to eat, you can come to my house to buy it. There are fresh ones every day."

As soon as his words fell, someone suddenly said in surprise: "Oh, it's so cheap?!"

"What's so cheap?" Lin Heyi walked from the backyard with his hands behind his back, and when he saw the green bean sprouts on the table of the helpers, he immediately said to Lingshu, "Okay, if you have something delicious, don't let the old man taste it first." Try it, be careful I don't give Wei Xiuya a pulse!"

Lingshu: ...

What's the point of threatening me with Wei Xiuya?

Wei Xiuya is nothing like me.

If you have the ability, you threaten him.

Lin Heyi snatched the chopsticks from the person next to him angrily, and changed them. He didn't dislike the big pot of vegetables on the table, so he just stretched out the chopsticks to eat, and nodded while eating: "Not bad, not bad, this is Bean sprouts? I haven’t seen this kind of bean sprouts before, you kid has a lot of tricks.”

The helpers of Yan's family knew that the old man was a doctor. In recent days, everyone had a headache, and it was Dr. Lin who prescribed the prescriptions. He didn't need a consultation fee for these minor ailments. The villagers in the village treated Lin Heyi very well. It is respect, so no matter how rude he is, no one will blame him.

Lingshu couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "Mr. Lin, don't compete with the folks for food, can you pay attention to your image?! I made other dishes there, and it's not too late to send them over."

Upon hearing this, Lin Heyi immediately put down his chopsticks, stared at Lingshu and said, "You should have said it earlier! What did you do? Did you make it with this bean sprouts? Where? Is it in the kitchen? I'll serve it myself!"

"Farewell, let me go. You'd better go eat with Wei Xiuya. I'll come right away." Lingshu dropped these words and hurried to the kitchen, worried that if she didn't go early, the dishes would be spoiled by Lin. He Yi ate it all by himself.

Some of the helpers in the back hurriedly called Ling Shu: "Master Ling, I want to buy a catty of Lu Ruyi when I leave later in the afternoon!"

"Yes! We all want to buy it too! Brother Ling, don't forget!"

Ling Shu replied: "I remember it! Don't worry, everyone has it!"

He brought a plate of bean sprouts and egg rolls to Wei Xiuya's room. Lin Heyi had been waiting at the table a long time ago. When he saw the dishes on the plate, he couldn't wait to pick it up before Lingshu put the plate on the table. got one.

Ling Shu glared at Lin Heyi, and put the plate in front of Wei Xiuya.

Wei Xiuya also picked up an egg roll. The outer skin of this egg roll is fried egg skin, and the inner bread is green bean sprouts, black fungus, wild mushrooms, cabbage leaves and shredded green onion.

It is sour, crunchy and refreshing after one bite. The taste of several dishes and the aroma of eggs are mixed together, which is very delicious.

Wei Xiuya was very satisfied.

He even wondered if he had been fattened up by Lingshu during this time...

Although it is delicious, it is better to eat less.

"Why is the bean sprouts in the bread different from the ones I've eaten before?" Wei Xiuya put down his chopsticks and asked Lingshu.

Lingshu smiled and said, "Because this is planted with sand, if I tell you you don't understand it, I call it Lu Ruyi. I guess I'm going to be busy these days, and I have to find a market."

Lin Heyi interjected, "Is there still a need to look for it? You, Lu Ruyi, drag it to the market, and it can be snatched up without shouting."

"That's what I said," Ling Shu said, "but I just want to be lazy, I don't want to go out and sell it myself, I want to ask others to come and buy it."

Wei Xiuya raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's not easy for everyone to know this kind of dish and come here just because of its reputation."

In the Daqing Dynasty, there were two ways to make something famous all over the country. The first method was more time-consuming and labor-intensive. It was to let people publicize the goodness of this thing. It was like advertising and casting a wide net. However, this method really required a lot of money. The money, and in today's underdeveloped transportation and information exchange, the effect is very slow.

The second is to pay this kind of thing to the royal family.

Once it becomes a royal tribute, it will make the whole country flock to it overnight.

However, if you don't get through the royal family's contacts and connections, you can't even think about this method, especially the peasant family. I'm afraid they won't even have the chance to go to the capital, let alone enter the imperial palace.

Wei Xiuya lowered his eyes and meditated, counting the days, his little uncle will be here soon, and with his mercenary temperament, he will definitely be interested in this "green ruyi" dish.

At that time, maybe I can ask my little uncle to help me take care of it...

It's just that the time hasn't come yet, so don't tell Lingshu about it now.

"That's why I'm worried." Ling Shu spread his hands and sighed, "I don't think so much, I'd better sell the things at home first."

The big deal is like selling rice cakes with hawthorn sauce. Every market rushes to it. When a novelty first appears, it will always be sought after by people.

In the evening, all the villagers who helped Yan's family bought a catty of Luruyi and went back.

On the next day, before dawn, Lingshu and his parents, elder brothers and sisters-in-law tied up bean sprouts with fine twine. A handful weighed about half a catty, and they could be fried in a small plate. The clean wooden boxes were loaded into the bullock cart hired by Uncle Liu, and they were ready to go to Dingchun Town to sell them.

This is not a lot of recycling, only about 100 catties. According to the wholesale price Lingshu said, it is really not worth much, but when you go to the town for retail sales, such a rare side dish should be sold for at least five cents a piece. Only a catty will do.

After the family loaded the car, Ling Shu and Yan Dachuan got into the ox cart, and the ox cart wobbled towards the entrance of the village. Before leaving the village, they encountered a carriage head-on.

Ling Shu sat on the shaft of the car and put his hands together to see, isn't that the little brother named Liu Cong last time?

Lingshu hurriedly asked Uncle Liu to stop, jumped out of the car, and shouted at the carriage: "Little Brother Liu—this way! We are planning to go to town, it's great that you are here!"

The last time Brother Liu and several other merchants in the county came to buy hawthorn sauce, Lingshu said that he had signed a contract with "Shengxiangju" and did not sell to them, but he found an opportunity to make his own bean sprouts in advance A wave of advertisements, when those people talked about it, they would come and see it.

As a result, the bean sprouts were harvested in the past few days, and no one came.

In fact, Lingshu was not very disappointed. At that time, he just said a few words casually. Although what he said was true, no one else had seen the real bean sprouts, so they would naturally tell Lingshu what he said. The credibility of "vegetables with green leaves" is discounted.

Unless the green ruyi vegetable has appeared on the market like the previous hawthorn sauce, and it has been proved to be delicious, these profit-seeking merchants are willing to buy it with confidence.

But I didn't expect that just listening to Lingshu draw a cake, this little brother Liu actually came!
