Chapter 262 Sick
Chapter 262 Sick
Lin Ting's face was tickled by Shen Qingzhou's rubbing, forcing her to shrink back.
"Shen Qingzhou, why are you acting like a child?"
Shen Qingzhou kissed Lin Ting's forehead and whispered in her ear in a low, coquettish voice.
“When you love someone, you’re like a child.”
Lin Ting was unable to refute and let him carry her home.
From now on, if Lin Ting is not available to pick him up, he will arrange for someone to go to the college to pick him up and take him home. In this way, the two of them can see each other every day.
The next day!
Lin Ting went to Ningjiang Manor with Yu Kangle. Manager An had already prepared accommodation for Yu Kangle in the small courtyard on the manor.
As a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, he was accompanied by many guards, as well as people from the county government.
Today, Lin Ting's Ningjiang Manor is safer than the county government office. Lin Ting also has her own people here, so she is not afraid at all of anyone coming to steal her crops.
"It seems that Madam Lin has taken good care of this farm!"
The entire Ningjiang Village was kept very clean, even the grass on the ridges was cut well.
"These farms are managed by my parents-in-law. They are indeed more attentive than I am."
Lin Ting did not take credit for this. Whoever did it was responsible for it.
"Yes, it's time to plant the corn today. Madam Lin, take me to take a look."
"Master Yu, please..."
Yu Kangle and Lin Ting walked together in the fields, watching the people on the farm digging, sowing and fertilizing.
After seeing Lin Ting ask everyone to make the soil into clumps, it would be easier to apply fertilizer and drain water, and also more convenient for personnel management.
The two of them looked around and it took almost an hour.
"That's about it for planting. Based on the current temperature, it will take about five to seven days for the corn seedlings to emerge."
This was not Yu Kangle's first time in the fields. Most of the farming he had seen before was the same.
But Lin Ting's management has achieved a level that many people cannot achieve.
For example, the drainage spaces she left were clustered together, and people could still walk around in them, which many people cannot do.
It’s not a question of hard work, but most people are reluctant to give up their land. They would rather plant two more plants in the aisle than waste it.
"I will stay here and observe the growth of corn every day. By the way, Madam Lin, the few acres of land over there in the farm I just looked at seem to be all used for growing seedlings. What kind of seedlings are you growing over there? I can't even recognize them at first glance."
Yu Kangle recognized almost all the plants grown in Dongxia Kingdom, but after hearing Lin Ting's words, the corn alone opened the door to a new world for him, and now he opened one door after another.
Lin Ting turned to look in the direction Yu Kangle pointed and answered him.
"Oh! Those are peppers. Almost every household in our village is growing them this year. Since Lord Yu is here observing the corn, he will surely be able to wait until the peppers are ripe. Then you can taste the peppers we grow."
Lin heard it casually. Since Yu Kangle noticed the chili pepper, he would definitely observe it. If he returned to the capital in the future, he would help her promote the chili pepper.
For Lin Ting, there are only benefits and no disadvantages.
"Chili pepper? Madam Lin, why don't you talk about chili pepper!"
Lin Ting smiled slightly, and the two of them went back to the small courtyard.
"Master Yu, peppers are different from corn. You haven't even seen the ripe fruit, so I can't describe it to you. But there are some pepper peels in the yard. I'll take you to see them."
An Hongyun and his team used scissors to cut open the peppers, took out the seeds inside and planted them, but Lin Ting still had use for the dried pepper shells, so he kept them.
When An Hongyun heard that Lin Ting and Lord Yu wanted to see the chili peppers, he immediately brought over a bag of chili peels.
"Mrs. Lin, here are the small ones for this part of the peppers, look!"
Lin Ting nodded and took the chili from An Hongyun's hand.
"Master Yu, this is the fruit of a chili pepper. I took out the seeds and planted them, but after it grew, it looked like this, turning from cyan to green."
As soon as he got close to the dried chili pepper, Yu Kangle only felt a pungent smell, but he soon got used to it.
He walked forward and picked up a pepper with his hand, trying to restore it. It was a long strip, not big, and there were seeds that fell into the pepper bag. Yu Kangle also knew what pepper seeds looked like.
"Master Yu, be careful. This chili pepper has the word 'spicy' in its name, so it must be spicy. Touch it with your hands, but don't rub your eyes."
The more Yu Kangle listened to Lin's words, the more he wanted to try it. He took out a spicy one and tasted it lightly. It was a little spicy, but without the pungent taste of Cornus officinalis.
But what could Lin Ting do with such a spicy thing? Or did she want to grow it and turn it into a seasoning?
"Mrs. Lin, are you planting so many peppers to sell them when they're ready?"
Lin Ting nodded. She didn't need to say too much to Yu Kangle. She wanted Yu Kangle to be here so that he would gradually understand what Chili could make.
Sometimes, no matter how much you say, it is not as shocking as seeing it with your own eyes.
"If Master Yu has anything to do at the manor, you can ask Manager An to come and see me anytime. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."
Yu Kangle wanted to ask about the chili peppers, but seeing that Lin Ting didn't seem to want to say more, even though he was curious, he could only hold it in for the time being.
Based on his observation of Lin Ting over the past two days, he discovered that Lin Ting was not the kind of person who relied solely on luck to grow so many peppers.
Then this pepper must be able to bring her more value. Yu Kangle just needs to observe carefully. When making records for Yu Mai, it will not be a big loss for him to make an extra portion of pepper.
When Lin Ting left, she looked back and saw Yu Kangle still staring at her peppers. When she had time, she would process the pepper skins, and Yu Kangle would definitely be even more amazed.
The temperature difference between morning and evening has been large these days, and Lin Ting has been busy in Wenzhu County and Zhuangzi, leaving home early and returning late, and he actually fell ill.
She returned to the Shen residence early this afternoon to pick up Shen Qingzhou, and she asked the driver to go over.
I felt weak all over and lay in bed not wanting to move.
"Lin Ting, how are you? Is there anything you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
When Lin Ting fell ill, Yang Xiuxiu was more nervous than she was herself, and she felt even more sorry for Lin Ting because she was too tired every day.
"I'm fine, mother-in-law. I just have a cold. I'll be fine after a good sleep. Oh, and don't let Xiaobao in. She's still young, so she might catch the disease."
Lin Ting really had no appetite and now she just wanted to sleep.
Before Yang Xiuxiu could finish her words, Lin Ting had already fallen asleep. She was really exhausted.
Lin Ting didn't know how long she had slept. She was already groggy and her hand seemed to have been pricked by a silver needle. She was woken up by the pain.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Shen Qingzhou's worried face and Wan Weiran who was angry beside him.
