Chapter 337： Accompanied travel

  Chapter 337 Accompanied travel

  Wei Jinyi's blush made Wei Ruo wonder if he had taken it by mistake.

   "This is taro ball milk tea, that's right, not Jiuniang Yuanzi."

   After taking a closer look, Wei Ruo made sure that he took the right thing.

  Wei Jin also came back to his senses, and hurriedly lowered his head and continued to eat taro ball milk tea.

   "Second brother, don't eat so fast. If you are full with taro ball milk tea, you won't be able to eat barbecue. I have prepared a lot of delicious barbecue ingredients."

   "Yeah." Wei Jin also stopped, but he didn't dare to look at Wei Ruo anymore, and turned to the side.

  On the other side, Xiumei and Xiaobei are very busy.

Looking at the seafood on the grill, Xiaobei couldn't help asking Xiumei curiously: "Miss Xiumei, where did Missy get these seafood? I heard that the Japanese pirates have changed recently, and the government has banned fishermen from going out to sea." , and your seafood is fresh, it looks like it was just picked up in the past two days."

  Xiumei smiled mysteriously: "I won't tell you, this is my lady's secret!"

   Immediately afterwards, Xiumei asked Xiaobei back: "What is the young master of the Ni family busy with? He finally got the opportunity to study with Lay Buddhists in the Tibetan forest. He has been busy for more than half a year."

  Xiaobei smiled: "This is also my young master's secret!"

  Xiumei snorted softly, and didn't ask any further questions. In fact, she just asked casually. She didn't expect to find anything out of the question. Naturally, she didn't ask too much since her lady didn't have anything she needed to know.

   "Miss Xiumei, is your lady in a bad mood recently?" Xiao Bei continued to ask.

   "Why is my lady in a bad mood?" Xiumei asked back.

   "Aren't there all kinds of gossip going on outside, saying that your young lady was divorced by the Xu family?"

   "What is it all about? My lady and Xu's family have no engagement, so where did the talk of divorce come from? I don't know who is talking nonsense." Xiumei said angrily.

  Xiaobei echoed: "That's right, they really know how to make things up. What does the Xu family's repentance have to do with this incident? It's obviously our young master who repented..."

   "What about your young master?" Xiumei turned her head and looked at Xiao Bei with a puzzled expression.

   "I mean, our young master is quite happy for the young lady when they regret it, because she knows that the young lady doesn't want to discuss marriage with them." Xiaobei hurriedly explained.

   "That's natural."

   "My young master came back early this time because of the eldest lady's matter." Xiaobei said again.

   "Second young master still cares about our young lady, but this time his worry is unnecessary, my young lady is not sad."

"That's good."

  The two talked while baking, and after baking some, they brought them to the table.

  Garlic scallops, garlic oysters, grilled fish, grilled chicken wings, grilled chicken legs, grilled chicken gizzards, grilled eggplant, and grilled sweet potatoes.

  The meat is full of fragrance and smells very appetizing.

Xiumei specially introduced: "Miss has prepared different sauces for different ingredients, and they are all marinated to taste. Second young master, try it quickly. We don't have this kind of treatment when others come here. Only you, second young master, can taste it." There are so many different flavors of barbecue prepared by the lady herself."

   "Yeah." Wei Jinyi had a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had already tasted the deliciousness of the barbecue before he even put it in his mouth.

  Wei Ruo asked Xiumei and Xiaobei to sit down, and it was the same as before. Everyone ate together and had a lot of fun.

   Eating barbecue should be so lively.

   On the second day, Wei Ruo was going to go out to the wasteland in the suburbs early in the morning. When she got to the door, she saw Wei Jinyi was already there.

   "Second brother?"

   "Last night, you said you were going to open up wasteland today. I happen to have nothing to do, so I will go with you." Wei Jin also said.

   "Okay!" Wei Ruo was very happy to have Wei Jin accompany him.

   It happens that the distance is quite far, and if there is a second brother with him, there is still someone on the road who can talk to him.

  Wei Ruo got into the carriage, and Wei Jin also rode the horse and walked alongside the carriage.

  Wei Ruo was in the carriage, leaning against the carriage, chatting with Wei Jin.

  It was the same as in Yingzhu Garden in Xingshan County before, Wei Ruo chanted, Wei Jin also listened carefully, Wei Ruo talked a lot, Wei Jin also talked less, but they all responded to what Wei Ruo said.

  The two talked for a long time, and the carriage arrived at the destination.

  When Wei Ruo got out of the car, he found that Wei Jin had also changed his appearance. After changing his appearance, he changed into a very ordinary face, except for his eyes, which were as deep as the stars of the vast sea, which is unmistakable.

   "Second brother, why is he disguised?" Wei Ruo asked curiously.

   "To avoid some trouble." Wei Jin also explained.

   "Oh." Although Wei Ruo felt that the answer was a bit vague, he didn't ask further.

  After more than a month of digging and plowing, this wasteland has changed from the previous desolation, and has been artificially reclaimed into pieces of flat land.

  The fields are separated by ridges, and the weeds and stones have been cleared away.

  As he got closer, a not-so-pleasant smell hit his face. Not only did Wei Ruo not show any disgust, but he smiled a little more.

This unpleasant smell is fermented farmyard manure, which can make the land unsuitable for crops suitable, and make the barren land fertile. It is the hope for the survival of thousands of pioneers today. , is a taste that farmers can't hate.

   Not far away, there is a row of newly built simple shacks, which are temporary residences for pioneers. Although simple, they can at least shelter some wind and rain.

  Wei Ruo, Wei Jinyi, Xiumei and Xiaobei walked around the newly reclaimed field ridge.

  During the period, Wei Ruo squatted down several times to check the condition of the soil. During this process, her clothes and skirts would inevitably be stained, even though she had specially worn more convenient and simple clothes today.

   "How is Miss?" Xiumei asked concerned.

   "Very good, it has achieved the effect I expected. In one more month, the soil can be irrigated." Wei Ruo said.

   "That would be great!" Xiumei said.

   "Let's go there again to see if the water problem has been solved." Wei Ruo continued.

  When Wei Ruo originally planned this area, he had considered the issue of irrigation in the future. Whether it is wheat, rice, or other crops, irrigation is a must.

   What's more, the soil improvement process in the early stage also requires water infiltration.

  So while opening up wasteland, they also had to solve the water source problem.

   Fortunately, there is a river not far from here. Just dig a channel to connect it, and then use a water truck to drive water into the channel to introduce water into the newly reclaimed fields for irrigation.

   Several people came to the river together, Wei Ruo saw the government servants and workers who were digging the canal, and also saw a person she hated—Chu Lan.

  When Wei Ruo saw Chu Lan, Chu Lan also saw Wei Ruo.

  Chu Lan took the initiative to walk towards Wei Ruo...
