Chapter 359 Giving each other gifts
"Okay, let's go to my room."
"Yeah!"
"Crack~"
Yingxiang did not follow in, but just stayed in the yard. The young lady didn't like her to follow too closely.
Shen Xiaoya took out a few handkerchiefs and sachets, "Anian, here you go, I embroidered these."
Lu Nian took it and opened one of the handkerchiefs. The plum blossoms embroidered on it were lifelike.
"Wow, little duck, you are so awesome!"
She looked at the others, took them in her hands, and exuded a joyful aura all over her body.
"As long as you like it."
Her family was of average financial condition. Although they had received some silver while fleeing from famine, her parents had been used to a hard life, so they hid most of the silver and did not squander it.
The gift Lu Nian gave her might not be a big deal to her, but for her, one or two would be fine, but so many would be unaffordable.
But I couldn't always accept gifts from others, it would be better if there was give and take. Thinking that I was good at embroidery, I embroidered some handkerchiefs and sachets for A Nian.
Lu Nian nodded, "I like it, it has my name on it!"
The two little girls smiled at each other. Everything was said without words.
Lu Jing finally came back to his senses from that piece of land and turned into the reserved and noble young man again, sitting together and drinking tea with Shen Li.
"Ali, how did you think of planting it like that?"
Shen Li looked at him and asked, "If the seeds are not planted in the soil, where should they be planted?"
Lu Jing was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "I was confused."
Shen Li nodded, "It seems that you need to practice more, otherwise you will be confused in the future."
“Well, are these seeds enough?”
"That's enough. You can peel off a lot of corn kernels from one stalk. If you throw two kernels into a nest, you can plant a lot of land."
Lu Jing thought about it and found that it was indeed as she said. He couldn't help but sigh: "If this thing fell into my hands, I don't know what to do with it."
Shen Li smiled but said nothing. To be honest, if she hadn't come from the modern era, she wouldn't know what to do. She would probably be completely in the dark. Now she just took advantage of a good opportunity.
"Would you like to take some seeds back to plant?"
Lu Jing's eyes lit up. "Sure, just give me a few seeds and I'll go back and plant them in my yard."
He had never seen this kind of grain before, and now he could grow it with his own hands. He felt a sense of accomplishment just thinking about it.
Shen Li nodded, stood up and got him some seeds. As expected, he was a flower-growing family, and his farming ability would be awakened when he reached a certain age.
Shen Li brought him a dozen kernels of corn and two chopped potatoes, which were covered with wood ash.
"Here you go. After you plant it, water it. If the soil is wet, leave it alone. If it lacks fertilizer, add some farmyard manure."
Lu Jing's face froze for a moment, and he was a little hesitant when he took the bag.
Shen Li nodded and confirmed him, "Yes, it's the farmyard manure you were thinking of."
"Is there no other fertilizer alternative?"
Shen Li laughed, "You can also use flower fertilizer."
Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief visibly, "That's good."
"How long will you and A-Nian stay here this time?"
"Stay for two days. I have things to go back to deal with after two days."
"Well, then just stay at my house. I'll have someone clean up a yard for you later."
"Okay, that's what I originally planned."
In fact, if Shen Li hadn't asked, he might not have lived in the Shen family, even if Shen Changshan and his wife had asked.
It's not only for Shen Li's good, but also for his Lu family. He is a man and naturally knows how strong a man's possessiveness is. If Prince Jingnan minds, it will not be good for him or A Li.
Therefore, he will keep a distance from A Li in the future. Lu Jing feels a little melancholy. If he appeared next to Shen Li first, would the result be different?
No, he thought, Shen Li would not like him, at most they could just be friends.
After Lu Jing and Lu Nian arrived, everyone went to the restaurant to eat. Lu Nian also brought Shen Xiaoya with him.
"Sister Ah Li."
Shen Li looked at Shen Xiaoya, who was a little shy in front of her, and reached out to touch the top of her head.
She likes Shen Xiaoya very much. She will seize the opportunity and try her best to change her bad life. It is rare.
Shen Changshan: "The duckling is here. Where are your parents? Call them over to eat together."
Shen Xiaoya shook his head and refused, "No, uncle, my parents are already eating."
"Okay, let's eat."
Originally, Shen Xiaoya didn't plan to come, but Lu Nian wanted to have dinner at her house. She didn't go out to buy vegetables, and there was no meat at home. She was worried that Shen Xiaoya would not be able to get used to the simple meals at home, so she accompanied Lu Nian here.
In the afternoon, Lu Nian begged Shen Xiaoya to take her to the mountains to play, but Shen Xiaoya didn't dare to agree to her. If anything unexpected happened, she couldn't take the responsibility, so she ran to Lu Jing and Shen Li.
"Brother Lu, Sister A Li, A Nian..."
Lu Nian chased after her from behind and covered her mouth, "Brother, Sister A Li, I was just joking with the little duck."
That guilty look couldn't be hidden. Lu Jing glanced at her and said, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Lu Nian let go of Shen Xiaoya, lest he get hurt, "Brother, I want to go hunting."
Shen Xiaoya turned her head to look at her. If she hadn't said that just now, she would have been lying to herself.
Lu Nian noticed that her cheeks were slightly puffed up, and she gave him a flattering smile, then looked at Lu Jing eagerly.
"You want to go hunting? How can you hunt if you can't even shoot an arrow?"
"Brother, you underestimate me. Who said I can't shoot? I'm not just good at using an embroidery needle."
Lu Jing's mouth twitched. Seeing that he was the only one there, he exposed his true colors without hesitation, "Anian, you should know yourself. You can't even hold an embroidery needle properly."
Lu Nian's fair and tender face gradually turned red, and he was about to get angry when Shen Li spoke.
"Well, I haven't gone hunting for a long time. Let's go together."
"Humph!"
Lu Nian was very angry about his brother's behavior. He snorted at him and pulled Shen Xiaoya to run behind Shen Li.
Lu Jing looked at her helplessly, "If you want to go hunting, change your clothes quickly. You can't walk into the mountains in this outfit."
"Okay, I get it now."
Shen Li also changed into a set of light clothes. When she got to the front, she saw two little girls carrying arrows on their backs. Lu Nian looked aggressive and ready for a big fight.
Looking at Lu Jing who was not far away from him, Shen Li understood that she had been hit by her brother again.
"Let's go. We can still catch enough prey for dinner."
They soon entered the mountains. The Shen family was originally at the foot of the mountain, so they entered the mountains quickly.
There were five of them in the group. They were a big target and although the noise wasn't too loud, they still scared away a lot of prey.
After walking a little further, I found that there were more prey here.
"Little duck, look there's a rabbit!"
Lu Nian lowered his voice and whispered into Shen Xiaoyaer's ear.
Shen Xiaoya nodded, pulled out an arrow from behind, bent the bow, put the arrow on it, and "swoosh", shot it out quickly.
"Wow, you're awesome, little duck!"
