Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 39 Peppermint Water Test



"Come here, children! Try Mother's new work!" Jiang Ling, who had just returned home from the back mountain, hurriedly took out the mint water that was placed in the shade.

With the "lesson" from last time, Jiang Wenxi and Jiang Suhe hurried away covering their mouths and shaking their heads.

Nian Ci followed closely behind, but Jiang Yaojie was still curiously looking at the mint water in the bowl.

Seeing this, Jiang Ling put a bowl in front of Jiang Yaojie, and said expectantly: "Yaojie! Try it quickly! It is absolutely guaranteed to be different from last time."

"Really...really?" Although Jiang Yaojie was dubious, he still took a sip under Jiang Ling's eyes full of anticipation.

"Hmm...um..." Jiang Yaojie's expression gradually changed, his brows were slightly frowned in doubt, and then gradually stretched out, his eyes were slightly closed, and his face was full of enjoyment.

He leaned lightly on the chair and drank the remaining half bowl of mint water, and he didn't forget to smack his lips after drinking.

"Yaojie! How's it going?" Looking at Jiang Yaojie's expression changes, Jiang Ling had an answer in her heart, but she still hoped that some words could come out of other people's mouths.

"It's very sweet! It's also very refreshing. After drinking it, I feel cool! It's very comfortable!" Jiang Yaojie replied as he put the bowl on the table.

"What? Brother, don't talk nonsense here just to make your mother happy!" Jiang Suhe kept looking at the empty bowl and mint water.

"How is it possible, sister, try it, it tastes really good, it's sweet!" Jiang Yaojie explained.

"What? Sweet?" Jiang Wenxi, who was covering her mouth and shaking her head, went to the kitchen to get a bowl and ran to Jiang Ling's side with the bowl and said, "Mom, I want it too! I want it too!"

Jiang Ling smiled and scooped two spoonfuls of mint water into Jiang Wenxi's bowl.

"Wow! This is delicious! It's so cool and comfortable! I don't feel very hot anymore!" Jiang Wenxi put the empty bowl on the table and wiped his mouth.

"Really? Really?" Jiang Suhe looked at Jiang Wenxi and Jiang Yaojie still hesitating.

"Suihe, try it! Your elder brother and younger sister will not lie to you!" Not long after, another bowl appeared beside Jiang Suihe.

"Hmm..." Jiang Suhe picked up the bowl and licked it with the tip of his tongue, his eyebrows twitched immediately, "Gudu", "Gudu" gulped down the mint water in the bowl.

"Why didn't mother lie to you?" Jiang Ling asked with a smile.

Jiang Ling's side is happy and harmonious, but the situation in Dahua Village is a bit subtle.

He Dake sat on the chair and smoked the dry tobacco with an unusually dignified expression on his face, while Lu Dongyuan, the head of Lujia Village, who was sitting beside him, showed an impatient expression.

"Brother, is what you said true?" He Dake hesitated for a long time before asking out the doubts in his heart.

"Of course, a man of my age can still lie to you? You have saved water here, and the people in your village will naturally not poison the water source of our village. There must be more than one place we found that the back mountain is so big. The source of water." Lu Dongyuan recalled what Jiang Ling said before, and spoke to He Dake in front of him in an orderly manner.

He Dake rolled his eyes again, and he tentatively asked: "Then... what about the benefits?"

Lu Dongyuan immediately understood the meaning of He Dake's words, and he added: "Don't worry, I won't charge you for favors!"

"There is such a good thing? I don't believe it." After He Dake finished speaking, he began to smoke the pipe again.

"You! He Dake, why do you treat yourself like a donkey? If I really want to argue with you, why don't I take those two people to Changning Town directly and let the county magistrate handle this matter!" Lu Dongyuan said He became more and more angry, and finally stood up and planned to leave.

Seeing that Lu Dongyuan was angry, He Da immediately smiled and apologized: "Brother, brother, don't be angry, don't be angry, it's me who treats the belly of a gentleman with your villainous heart! I...hey, I can't help it ?”

He Dake picked up the dry tobacco and started to smoke it again and again. Amidst the smoke, He Dake uttered the troubles in his heart.

It turned out that in the early days, He Da could see the drought in the field, and the grain harvest was hopeless. He went to Pingxi County alone, planning to apply for food relief from the county magistrate of Pingxi County.

Unexpectedly, the previous county magistrate of Pingxi County has retired and returned home, and the new county magistrate has just taken over here and doesn't know much about many places. Although he didn't directly reject him at the time, He Dake felt that the food relief matter was a big deal. There will definitely be no text.

Now the head of Lujia Village suddenly came over and said that he would find water sources for free, which is why He Dake, who has always been cautious, was more careful.

Lu Dongyuan smiled awkwardly after hearing He Dake's heartfelt voice, and then said: "Don't worry, I will naturally not go back on what I promised you, and we have to go back to work. Regarding the water source, I will bring you tomorrow." Come here!"

After all, no matter what He Dake tried to persuade him to stay, Lu Dongyuan shook his head and refused, and finally left Dahua Village with a group of people.

"Father, are you really going to help them?" Lu Chengcai asked with a puzzled expression just after he walked out of Dahua Village.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"But...but they treated us so well, why should we help him?" Lu Chengcai was even more confused now, he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine his father was selling in his gourd.

"Stupid!" Lu Dongyuan frowned and scolded.

"Dahua Village and us had a bit of a festival before. You don't want the two villages to be serious about everything, right? What's more, people can't tell who they will ask for in this life. One day we will really ask for Dahua Village. We what to do?"

Lu Dongyuan's words made Lu Cheng scratch his head.

"Let's not talk about this, just talk about the water source. Which of the surrounding villages has water besides our village? Last night, the water source of our village was almost drugged. This is a warning. Is it possible that we still send people ten times a day?" Two hours and twelve hours to guard our water source?"

"Furthermore, when our village has harvested grain, will you borrow it from the next village?"

Lu Dongyuan's words not only shocked his own son, but even the men who followed him gave thumbs up in their hearts. Of course they didn't know that Lu Dongyuan's words all came from Jiang Ling's mouth .

Jiang Ling has already started preparations here, the third peppermint water experiment.

This time, Jiang Ling secretly bought a large roll of ultra-fine gauze in the mall to use as a filter for mint residue. Jiang Ling slowly poured the light green water into the bowl of gauze that had been placed.

"Mother, mother, the village chief grandpa is here to find you!" Before Jiang Ling was ready to filter the mint, Jiang Suhe's voice came from outside to the house.

Jiang Ling responded, picked up the towel on the table and wiped her hands, straightened her somewhat messy hair, and walked out unhurriedly.

"Village chief, what's the matter?" Jiang Ling walked to the village chief and asked.
