Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 64 The Son Is Back 1



Just as the sun was setting, Jiang Ling brought wormwood and cocklebur, as well as ground alum and realgar to the Lu Family Ancestral Hall. After Jiang Ling patiently demonstrated it, he distributed the alum and realgar to everyone in Lujia Village.

After everyone thanked and dispersed, the people in Lujia Village were destined to be brightly lit tonight.

Only the village head and Jiang Ling were left in the Lu Family Ancestral Hall.

The village chief took a puff of dry tobacco and asked anxiously: "Mr. Jiang, this way..."

Jiang Ling knew what the village chief was worried about. It would be more than a month before the crops in the field matured. Since the people in Lujia Village discovered the source of water, their hearts were relieved, and the food naturally did not deliberately If there is an insect plague, it will definitely be a disaster for Lujiacun.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling nodded firmly and said to the village chief: "Village chief, don't worry, this method is absolutely effective! But I hope we will never use it!"

The village chief nodded helplessly, smoking a dry cigarette, and said nothing.

After Jiang Ling returned home, she started to get busy again. It was not until Haishi that Jiang Ling dragged her tired body out of the kitchen. Jiang Ling looked at a table full of peppermint paste and peppermint syrup, and couldn't help thinking about what was in it. Which steps can be "outsourced".

Early the next morning, Jiang Ling with two heavy dark circles under her eyes was abruptly pulled up by the knock on the door. She yawned and pushed the door open, only to see Ah Fu, the waiter from Huacui Building and the waiter from Yuchu Building They appeared at the gate of Jiang Ling's house respectively.

Jiang Ling rubbed his sleepy eyes and handed out everything that everyone needed. The three of them thanked them and disappeared before Jiang Ling's eyes.

When Jiang Ling rubbed her eyes and was about to go back to catch up on sleep, Zhao Erleng's daughter-in-law pushed the door open.

"Sister-in-law Erleng, I have something to do with you!" Jiang Ling hurriedly greeted Zhao Erleng's wife after seeing her.

"Oh, why are you being polite, just say what you need!" Zhao Erleng's daughter-in-law greeted Jiang Ling with a smile.

"Then... can you help me find five people who can work quickly and quickly! I need five more people here!" Jiang Ling said.

"What? What? Sister-in-law Jiang, you will spend at least 20 copper coins this day!" Zhao Erling's daughter-in-law couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise after hearing Jiang Ling's words.

Jiang Ling pointed helplessly at his shoulders and dark circles under his eyes and said, "I can't help it. I can't do it by myself. I'm so tired every day. Why don't I find a few people to make me relax. You can't earn enough money!"

Zhao Erleng's daughter-in-law was confused, but she nodded without saying a word: "Okay, Mrs. Jiang, don't worry, I will find you five honest and reliable ones! What about the working time?"

"Just do the same as you, one hour a day, but it's better to be earlier." Jiang Ling replied.

After returning home, Jiang Ling was a little tired, but she still managed to prepare breakfast for the children, a pot of thick corn porridge, and a few simple pickles. This meal looked simple to children. They ate very happily.

After breakfast, Jiang Ling took the children to the back mountain to gather some wormwood, cocklebur and some hay, and planned to get more grass balls before the locusts came.

The noon sun was very hot, and Jiang Ling was worried that the children would suffer from heat stroke, so she stopped working and led the children towards her home.

As soon as he walked to the door of the house, the village chief also ran over panting. Jiang Ling frowned and looked at the sweating village chief and asked, "Village chief, what can I do for you in such a hurry?"

The village chief wiped the sweat off his forehead and said to Jiang Ling, "Let's go to the Lu Family Ancestral Hall!"

Jiang Ling frowned in confusion, seeing that the village head had a slightly serious expression and did not continue to ask. She handed her pannier to Jiang Suihe and gave some instructions, then followed the village head and walked towards the Lu Family Ancestral Hall.

At this time, there was a carriage parked outside the Lu Family Ancestral Hall. Although the body of black peach wood was small, it looked very strong and steady. Painted with lacquer in the color of black mahogany.The wheels are very large, made of high-quality purple nanmu, and the horizontal axis in the middle is a whole piece of ebony.

Jiang Ling looked at the carriage outside the door with some curiosity. She didn't seem to have heard of any relatives in Lujia Village who were high-ranking officials.

"Mother!" A voice that sounded somewhat familiar came to Jiang Ling's ears.

Jiang Ling was overjoyed and quickly looked up. Jiang Yaojie poked his head out from the gate of the Lu Family Ancestral Hall.

"Yaojie!" Jiang Ling stepped forward quickly.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Magistrate Duan looking at him with a smile on his face. Seeing this, Jiang Ling immediately saluted and bowed, but Magistrate Duan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Jiang, please get up quickly, there is no need for politeness between you and me!"

"Master Xie County Magistrate!" After Jiang Ling finished speaking, she hurried to Jiang Yaojie's side. Jiang Yaojie hadn't seen Jiang Yaojie for more than half a month. It seemed that Jiang Yaojie had gotten fatter and paler, and his complexion had also looked ruddy. not bad.

But Jiang Ling still couldn't control her emotions, and hugged Jiang Yaojie in her arms, her eyes turned red immediately.

"Jiang's...Jiang's..." The village chief seemed worried that Jiang Ling's actions would annoy County Magistrate Duan, so he quickly stood beside her and reminded her in a low voice.

"It's okay, the reunion of mother and child is very touching!" County magistrate Duan said with a wave of his hand.

Just as Jiang Ling was about to say something, an extremely anxious voice came from outside the door of the Lu Family Ancestral Hall.

"Village... village chief... no... it's not good!" The person who came was Lu Xiaoyu and Lu Lightning's father, Lu Wangde, and he ran towards the Lu family's ancestral hall in a panic with a pale complexion, and ran in. At that time, I tripped over the steps of the ancestral hall, staggered and almost fell.

"Lu Wangde, how old are you? Why are you not stable at all!" The village chief was worried that Lu Wangde's behavior would offend the county magistrate Duan, so he quickly scolded him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Wangde's whole body trembled, his lips and teeth trembled and said: "No...it's not good, locust...locust..."

Lu Wangde didn't go on talking, but pointed out the door with his finger. Everyone's face changed drastically when they heard it. Everyone crowded at the door and looked outside.

Pieces of dark things appeared in the direction of the back mountain. The speed of these things was so large that they even covered up the original blue sky.

"Oops! It's locusts!" The village chief ran out of the door in a panic.

"Yaojie, you wait here, protect the county magistrate and don't go out!" Jiang Ling told Jiang Yaojie.

"Master County Magistrate, please don't worry, I will take care of the locust problem, but please stay here temporarily!" Jiang Ling turned to salute Duan County Magistrate and hurried towards the village chief.

"Village chief, go and tell everyone to bring grass balls and masks to the field!" After all, Jiang Ling was a young man, and after chasing the village chief, he told him to run in his direction.

After returning home, Jiang Ling put on a mask and hurried to the field with the torch and the prepared grass balls.

At this moment, the locusts had already flown over halfway, and they all landed on the rice grains and began to frantically eat the tassels.

Jiang Ling ignited the grass ball swiftly with his hands and feet, and the smoke immediately released a pungent smell, which made Jiang Ling frown.

People from the village rushed over one after another. Under Jiang Ling's command, although they were a little flustered, they still ignited the grass ball as quickly as possible.

The moment the smoke cleared, many locusts waved their wings like headless flies and began to fly around, but soon these locusts all fell on the ground like raindrops. The remaining half fled.
