……

Standing at the gate of the Qinghe Courtyard, watching the lost Fusu leave with his wife and children escorted by the forbidden army, Yu Wuya turned his head to look at Chen Xu with an iron sword: "Engong, what did you say to Fusu Gongzi?" It scared him like this! ”

"I just encourage him to be a good father...... Well, good father, just protect your son! Chen Xu said lightly.

Yu Wuya rolled his eyes speechlessly and turned to leave, "Engong, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the deer tongue, deer head, deer intestines, and deer hooves are okay!" ”

"Husband, it's hot and go back to the house!" Shui gently held an umbrella to help Chen Xu cover the strong sun.

For what Chen Xu did, as long as Chen Xu didn't say it, Shui Qingrou generally wouldn't ask, since marrying him, he came to Xianyang to live in a simple house on weekdays, either meditating and practicing at home and reading books, or teaching Xing'er and Yu Ji to read and write, or talking and chatting with Chen Jiang.

Although Chen Jiang felt a little uncomfortable because of Zheng Boqiao's words, he saw that his son and daughter-in-law were so loving every day, and Xu Fu had also come to diagnose Shui Gently, telling her that there was nothing wrong with her daughter-in-law's health, so she did not show any displeasure.

As for the second gourd potion sent by Zheng Boqiao, it had already been secretly taken out by Shui Qingrou and exchanged for tea, as well as the Zihe San, Chen Jiang's family did not secretly put it into the water gentle meal, and now he hoes the fields and farms every day, and chats happily with several farmers near the courtyard every day, although he is more tired, he can see that his mood is much more comfortable than in the city.

Moreover, this place is far away from the Taiyi Temple, it is troublesome to come and go, and Chen Jiang's family has basically not gone to worship again, plus the hundreds of hectares of land near the manor are the private property of the Marquis of Qinghe, arrange some more people to patrol and guard, and any stranger will be reported, which also makes the possibility of outsiders wanting to assassinate him through Chen Jiang's family reduced to almost nothing, so now Chen Xu is no longer worried about the second or third Zheng Boqiao to get some strange things to continue to frame him.

The reason why I want to say this to Fusu today is naturally because Chen Xu feels that he can't control the future.

Guiguzi left him a sentence that made him feel a little uneasy.

At the same time, the emperor did not kill Zhao Gao, and also asked Li Si to educate Hu Hai, which was somewhat beyond Chen Xu's expectations.

The emperor can reuse him, but it does not mean that the emperor will discuss and share everything in Daqin with him, this is an emperor's prudence and determination to control the Jiangshan Sheji, and he will not allow any outsiders to get involved, even if Chen Xu is a real disciple of the Immortal Family.

Therefore, taking precautions, Chen Xu must plant a seed in Fusu's heart in advance, as a father, with Chen Xu's prompt, Fusu will not ignore this matter, but will try his best to protect his son, if Chen Xu's words are really fulfilled in the future, he will not watch his son be hurt by Hu Hai at that time, because Hu Hai will never be able to set up a son as a prince, but will set up his own son as a prince, which is almost inevitable. What's more, with the help of Li Si, a prime minister who is completely inconsistent with his philosophy, the future of Ziying is worrying.

Fusu can not think about himself, but he will inevitably think about the life and death of his son.

As long as this seed takes root and sprouts, even if Li Sijiao asks Hu Hai to come to power in the future, Chen Xu can also help the Su branch court to resist the disrespect for the holy decree, and it will not develop into the situation in the history of later generations.

Approaching Shenshi, several guards who followed Li Gui to go home returned to Qinghe Courtyard, not only Li Gui came back, but Li Gui's family also came to kowtow to thank Chen Xu, and at the same time brought a little wild boar that had just been hunted.

Li Gui's family is a hunter for three generations, Gu is good at bows and arrows, Li Gui's grandfather is named Li Hun, nearly sixty years old, although the beard is gray but looks strong, but one leg is a little lame, is young hunting was injured by wild beasts, but the action is still extremely vigorous, in the vicinity of Jingyang County among the hunters are not small.

Li Gui's father, Li Qing, was less than forty years old, tall and long-armed, and had participated in several wars to conquer the Six Kingdoms before, but he had several injuries on his body, but he did not look very well, and he often coughed when he spoke weakly.

Li Gui's mother Li Gao is of the same age as Chen Jiang's, and she is also a standard peasant woman's image, but she speaks softly and softly, and she is from Chu, so Chen Jiang and Li Gui's mother speak with a similar accent, and they meet their old acquaintances in other places, so they are particularly kind to pull Li Gao's to watch the vegetable garden they have cultivated.

Seeing his mother's happy appearance, Chen Xu simply asked Li Gui's family to go back and clean up the house, and the family lived in Qinghe Courtyard, so that it would be good to find a companion for his mother who could talk and communicate, so as not to make her lonely.

Chen Xu's decision naturally made Li Gui's family grateful and kowtowed on the ground again.

Li Gui also has a fourteen-year-old brother and a twelve-year-old sister, although they are just ordinary children of the Orion family, but after all, they are people near Jingshi, and occasionally go into the city to sell prey and play, and they have long heard of Chen Xu, the marquis who is in Xianyang, and he is both nervous and happy after seeing it today, and his expression is very excited.

After summoning the housekeeper and the housekeeper to arrange Li Gui's family, the two kitchen workers also prepared to carry the little wild boar sent to the kitchen to be slaughtered.

"Wait!" Chen Xu looked at the several cyan vines tied to the wild boar, his eyes couldn't help but light up and went up to look at it carefully, then pulled down a cyan fruit from the vine, peeled it off and looked at it, and asked with a happy face: "Where did you find this vine?" ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, there are a lot of this kind of vines on the nearby hillside, called the fruit of the sage, after ripening, the seeds inside are dried and soaked in water to treat children's abdominal diseases!" Li Hun hurriedly explained.

"This is a good thing, you can help me collect some when you go back, or let the nearby villagers collect it, and I will buy it for three dollars a pound when it is dried, and I will buy as much as I want!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Master Hou, this thing is not only nearby, there are more in Zongshan and Nanshan, it's not worth spending money, let's help Master Hou pick and collect more after we go back, no need to spend money!" Li Qing also hurriedly said.

"It's okay, this thing can be made into ice powder, it is a cool and heat-relieving delicacy, when the time comes, it will be very popular to sell in Xianyang City, and the purchase of money can also give the dealer an extra income, why not, you go back to pack your belongings, move over and live early, and then the matter of inspecting the fiefdom will be handed over to your family!"

"Thank you, Master Hou!" Li Gui's family excitedly retired.

"Master Hou, I've also heard of this lily, but what is ice powder?" The kitchen steward looked at Chen Xu's peeled fruit with a confused face and asked.

"Hehe, after the jelly is made, it is crystal clear like jelly...... Well, it's like an ice cube, but it's very soft and smooth, mix with some ice water, add a little honey and fruit vinegar, it's cooler than a popsicle to relieve the heat, and now although it's about to enter autumn, it will be hot for several months after the autumn this year, and it will definitely sell well in Xianyang at that time. Chen Xu licked his mouth and said.

"Master Hou, this thing is not valuable, and it is estimated that it is not worth much to make ice powder, but if you add ice water, fruit vinegar and honey, I am afraid the price will be a bit big, and I am afraid that a bowl will lose money if it is not sold for twenty yuan!" The steward carefully reminded his own master.

Although Chen Xu doesn't care about money, the steward has to manage the food and beverage procurement in the mansion every day, and naturally knows that the daily expenses are at least more than 1,000 yuan, which is only for people, and the cost of horse feed for more than 200 horses is at least this amount, and the guards, stewards, grooms, helpers, etc. at home still have a different amount of monthly money every month, and it is tens of thousands of dollars, all of which add up, and the monthly expenses of a huge Qinghe Hou Mansion are at least about 100,000 yuan. In addition, Hou Ye spends money lavishly and never controls it, and the housekeepers and housekeepers of the Hou Mansion have a headache, and every time Hou Ye has a novel idea, it must be another expense.

But fortunately, Hou Ye spends money very much, and earns even more money, just Qinghe Garden in Xianyang has to earn two or three hundred thousand yuan every month, plus the emperor occasionally gives tens of thousands of rewards, otherwise according to Hou Ye's loser speed, the stewards and helpers of the Hou Mansion will run out in a year.

At present, Hou Ye is going to buy a large number of this kind of lily, if nothing else, there is no problem in collecting hundreds of catties in a month, and it will cost thousands of dollars.

"Don't sigh so much, how can someone who doesn't spend money make money? And the purpose of making money is to spend money, and the person who dies on the pile of money in the end must be the most shameful person in the world! Chen Xu looked at the steward with a bitter gourd face and said with a smile.

"But you don't know if you can make money, twenty dollars a bowl, I'm afraid you can't afford it even if you don't have a rich family!" The steward said with a sad face.

"Then only sell it to the people of the rich family, I will sell it in Qinghe Garden, if you can sell a hundred bowls a day, it will be 2,000 yuan a day, 60,000 yuan a month, and 180,000 yuan if you sell it for three months, not to mention the capital, a big house will also earn back......"

"Goo Dong~" The steward swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes began to glow.

Hou Ye's statement is simply too tempting, a bowl of cold noodles earns 180,000 yuan in three months, which is almost like robbing money.

In Chen Xu's incomparably tempting prospect of making money, the steward commanded two kitchen workers to carry a small wild boar to the kitchen to open his stomach.

Li Gui's family was very fast, and when the family moved to Qinghe Courtyard on the third day, they also brought more than ten catties of sun-dried sorrel seeds by the way.

Lychee, Chen Xu's hometown is called Ice Powder, and some places are also called pearl lotus or lotus, it is a kind of climbing vine-like shrub, like to climb on the sunny cliffs and slopes, and the fruit is like a fig, in fact, it is also a subgenus of Mulberry figs, and its distribution range in China is relatively wide, especially in the south.

But in this Great Qin era, the climate near Shaanxi seems to be much warmer than after two thousand years, the vegetation is luxuriant, including the bare Loess Plateau in later generations, all of which are dense layers of towering trees, wolves, tigers, leopards, birds and beasts can be seen everywhere, all kinds of animals and plants that are common in the south can be seen near Xianyang, and climbing plants like Xue Li are everywhere in the mountains and fields near Xianyang.

Ice powder is commonplace in rural areas, and almost every household will make some food in summer and autumn, and it is very simple to make.

Wrap the dried ice powder in fine gauze and put it in clean water and knead and scrub it, the seed skin will have a viscous substance to be washed down, and then you will feel sticky when you pick it up by hand, and then put in some eggplant leaves squeezed out of the juice or fresh lotus root juice, if the fruit is not in these two things, put in some clear lime water can also be added, stir it, put it in a cool place for half an hour and it will condense into a lump of transparent ice powder, scoop out a bowl of brown sugar water, A bowl of ice powder, which is common in summer, is made.

And this kind of ice powder is sold everywhere in various scenic spots, five pieces and ten pieces a bowl, sweet and silky cool and smooth, completely delicious to quench thirst.

At present, there are definitely no eggplant leaves, because eggplant, also known as eggplant, is produced in the Western Regions and comes from India.

And the lime water is definitely not good, so Chen Xu instructed the servants to go to the nearby Zhuanghu pond to pick some fresh lotus roots.
