Chapter 42: Indissoluble bond with pigs

Since the master taught the mixing method of herdsman pig feed, the weight of the sow has risen linearly, and a day has grown several hundred grams. Of course, there is no shortage of food to eat, and the body is uncomfortable, but the effect is obvious to all. Physical fitness has improved and the estrus period has come.
Because Cui Qichao did not avoid people at the time, there were still many farmers present, and the farmers also raised chickens, pigs, sheep and other animals. They passed around ten and ten times, and went back to mix some wet materials for the sows. The meat was much more than before. Moreover, Cui Qichao only allowed raw ingredients to be mixed, which was not particularly time-consuming.
The herdsman was particularly resentful. This could have become his family ’s secret to raising pigs. I did n’t see that the agricultural officer was now in charge of killing insects and extinction. The cook also had a lot of private recipes.
As a result, the whole village now knows how to feed pigs.
And because of his trust in Cui Qichao, after a few days, there were sows who had difficulty giving birth, and the cubs couldn't come down. The herdsman was anxious to report to the master, and the steward scolded him, "You want the noble lord to help you See a pig? Are you possessed by the devil? "
The herdsman: "I don't have it! That is, it is possible to lose the sow ..."
Cui Qichao was staring at the man rolling rice, and he was a little speechless when he heard the news coming out. His research on animal husbandry is really not that much, and giving birth to sows is too advanced for him.
But in the face of the herdsman's anticipation, Cui Qichao reluctantly said, "... try to touch the pig in its belly with your hand and push down to give birth."
When he thinks that people have difficulty giving birth, there are also people who push their belly. Let the dead pigs be the live pig doctors.
The herdsman nodded and even glanced at the housekeeper. The "secret" was heard by him and the housekeeper.
The steward looked at him fiercely, "What to see."
Do you think it ’s a good job to be a pig herder? Is he still stunned? ?
The shepherd ran back, groped for a while on the stomach of the sow, touched the piglet, pushed it gently, and the sow hummed. As soon as he bit his teeth, he told his son to hold the sow and push the palms of his hands. Piggy.
The shepherd's son was terrified. "Father, what are you doing?"
According to the belly of the sow, can the piglet survive?
"Small nonsense, this is what the Lord Lord taught me." In the early spring season, the herdsman was sweating on his forehead, feeling the piglet a little bit lower, and he felt more confident, but the piglet was still Out, in a hurry, the herdsman simply put his fingers in to help the sow produce.
With the power of the herdsman, the sow howled and the piglets rolled off. The little piglet's nostrils closed, apparently alive.
"I was born, I gave birth to a father!" The herd's son yelled excitedly. In the past, if the sow had difficulty giving birth, they would have no way to survive, and it would depend on the sow itself to survive. At best, they give some herbs when the sow is injured.
"I see it!" The herdsman was also very excited, looking at his hand and touching the animal several times. Livestock, they are their lives. Thank God, thank you.
When the sow gave birth to all the cubs, the cubs happily held the sow's breasts. After feeding their heads, the herdsman wiped his hands and ran to the master to confess his good news, so that his son would watch, and give the weak Sows are fed water and forage.
The shepherd can't wait to kiss the foot of the master, "Thank you, master, you are so wise!"
Cui Qichao thought that the blind cat had really run into a dead mouse, and he was really ashamed. "Are you born?"
It's okay to give birth, but he really doesn't know the sow's postpartum care. Is it also like human beings, the immunity is low, and it is not easy to touch cold water?
"I was born, I was born." The herdsman said cheerfully, "Master, these sows can give birth to children, it is up to you!"
Cui Qichao: "?????"
Xiaobai, who was sitting aside, was also stunned. People in the Middle Ages were too flattering. When they saw Cui Qichao's always cold look, it turned green, and the cat's belly almost broke.
What can Cui Qichao say, that it is okay for me to have these sows to have children, and he can only slowly say, "It ’s mainly based on your help and the sow ’s own will. I just made an idea."
Lord Lord is really overly polite, and the herdsman humbly said, "It's all your wisdom flashing, thank you."
This is okay, Cui Qichao eased a bit, "Well, you can continue to take care of the sow, don't feed too cold water."
"Yes, I remember. Thank you for your teaching." The pig herder, like Feng Lun, went backwards with respect.
Cui Qichao and Xiaobai face each other.
Cui Qichao: "..."
noob:"……"
Cui Qichao knew that Xiaobai could understand what was just before, but he pretended not to know.
Xiaobai wants to tell people all over the world that he just understood, but it has to pretend not to know.
For a long while, one person and one cat returned to the kitchen silently.
...
Here, Cui Qichao is still admired. The rice is made into white rice. The grains are not very big, but they still have a familiar taste. Cui Qichao asked the cook to bring a container, put some cleaned rice, and put an appropriate amount of water.
There is still a lot of pickled meat in winter. Cut some ham and put in it, then put some minced garlic, shallots, salt, and some wild mushrooms. Cover it and steam it directly with wood fire.
Cui Qichao has some emotions. He estimates that he will eat this meal, and he will have to save a little bit and cook porridge.
The cook has not eaten rice, and she squatted aside and asked curiously, "Master, what does this rice taste like? Why don't we make it into bread?"
It's not that rice can't be made into bread, but ...
Cui Qichao said: "This is more delicious."
The cook unconsciously licked her lower lip. Is it necessary to say when the lord lord ordered the cooking to be unpleasant?
Cui Qichao calculated that it was almost time, so he let the jar be removed, and without opening the lid for a while, let the rice simmer for a while.
Xiaobai can already smell the scent of rice, but it is not so enthusiastic about eating today, just watching Cui Qichao. Wow, if it can also bully Cui Qichao.
Cui Qichao wrapped the lid with a cloth and squeezed it. A piece of steaming steam rushed towards the face, and the smell of the long-lost rice, and the flavor of sausage and ingredients mixed inside.
The kitchen lady smelled this strange and delicious smell, and then watched Cui Qichao scoop out the rice with a wooden shovel. The clear, white and jade pile of rice was mixed with red and white sausage slices, green onions and hazel mushrooms.
Cui Qichao gave a small bowl to the chef. No one was in private. The chef took the bowl and ate it. In the Middle Ages in this period, the cooking methods for wheat were basically made into bread. Wheat was rarely cooked, porridge was made, and it contained many impurities, so she was fascinated by the soft taste of rice after cooking.
Because it ’s just cooked like this, the chaff is clean and clean, there is no trace of impurities, the amount of water, temperature, and duration are just right, the rice grains are soft and not sticky, and there is a certain chewyness, exuding the unique fragrance and sweetness of rice taste.
Even if I eat rice alone, I am satisfied. Besides, I added vegetables to it, and the chef ’s small bowl of rice also contains sausages and mushrooms. The tender mushrooms and salty sausage slices are eaten with the rice, and the taste is better. Sausages are meant to be meals. Although the cook doesn't understand this, she can still feel it.
Cui Qichao ate the bowl of sausage and mushroom rice contentedly. Due to medieval conditions, he didn't stir-fry. This is quite good.
While eating Cui Qichao, she also taught the cook, "If you put in more water, you will have porridge ..."
A small pot of rice, apart from a few mouthfuls left for the cat, was not left with a grain of rice eaten by them.
The cook is still licking her lips. The white bread is as fine as it is, but it is not as good as rice. The master is too demanding. The white bread still has a little gluten. The rice is hulled and cleaned. No wonder the steamed rice is delicious. , The taste is indeed sweet.
He still enjoys it, but even he only tastes it occasionally. How can there be so much work and rice, that job is very tired.
...
Cui Qichao was satisfied with the rice, and he had to go through so much to eat it. He installed it back to the room, and the slightly cooled rice became lumpy and hardened, proving that the quality was not good.
At this time calm down and think about it, it is true, because it is reserved for use, anyway, it is still full, taste, because he has not eaten for a long time, it is inevitable to bring a filter.
Not to mention the chef, she has never eaten rice. To her, the deliciousness of the grain is probably related to the accuracy of the milling. If the wheat is removed from all impurities and cooked into wheat, the chef can probably be simmered. dead.
While eating sausage and mushroom rice, Xiaobai was critically looking at Cui Qichao, and it was so happy to think of Cui Qichao's unlucky appearance.
Cui Qichao twisted a little to feed Dabai and Tangerine casually. He didn't want to cook too much of this precious white rice, and the cat could only eat a few mouthfuls. He can detect that Xiaobai is looking at himself, even if he takes a look, he can't know what Xiaobai is thinking for a long time.
But it was just a misrepresentation by the herdsman. He didn't want any punishment and was embarrassed for a while. On the contrary, Xiaobai, what is he proud of, do you think he doesn't know?
Cui Qichao stared at Xiaobai slowly and said coldly, "You eat too much and go outside to sleep at night."
noob:"…………"
How much does he have that orange cat? ?
.
Northumberland's spring plough is busy. Although the master's fallow land need not be taken care of too much this year, as long as weeding and fertilizing, but more vineyards, beet fields and other work, the manor is busy.
It was at this time that the Wrangler rushed back on a horse and said loudly, "No, I saw a strange group of soldiers coming here, wearing armor and arms."
It was different from the previous false alarm. At that time, Raymond led his team back. This time, the Wrangler could see clearly, it came from elsewhere, and it was fast. If it wasn't for the attack, why not.
Police officers rushed to report, and some trained farmers put on rattan armor and quickly gathered together.
Speaking of them, the clams were kept by them, and it was Cui Qichao who heard that they were also very keen on training in private. They had to wait in line to go to the toilet.
Among peasants, rattan armor is not as good as armor, but it is already powerful enough. There is a pair of rattan at home, and the neighbors next door are so envious. The vinegar is quite light. These proud peasants can't wait to take it from time to time. Also save it at home, let the restless little cubs at home ruin.
They quickly changed their clothes and hung in the ditch. Because of a lot of training, when you encounter this situation, everyone's first reaction is array, but what to do next is a bit uncertain.
Until one of the peasants gritted his teeth and said, "The Wrangler said that there are only a dozen soldiers coming, and it is not necessarily enough to deal with the police. We have a lot of people. If we really do them first, then the master will definitely have Reward. "
Everyone's refreshed, yes. They lacked confidence, but were so encouraged and felt right.
Fortunately, they made such a decision, because the soldiers who came did not expect to break into the castle, they planned to search the farmer's house in the manor. What can they grab? What is the coarse grain? .
Those heavily armed soldiers knew at a glance that they were professional—unlike the thieves who had fallen into peasants, they were fully equipped and belonged to the ranks of civilians and above.
Across the ranch, these people plan to step over the cultivated land and head towards the cottage.
This made the peasant soldiers even more filled with indignation. Some fields had started sowing, and they even trampled on.
The looted soldiers suddenly saw a group of people rushing out of the ditch. Their bodies were tan, strange armors, and agricultural tools in their hands. They could not be seen until a while ago. The so-called armors seemed to be made of rattan.
Although wearing rattan armor, the momentum is not ordinary. After training, the peasant soldier shouted and shouted, his voice was soaring, and he kept a certain formation while running.
The soldiers showed a weird look. The armor made of this rattan made them almost unable to treat the people in front of them as serious opponents, but the momentum of the attack was a bit deterred.
The soldiers screamed at the first, and the soldiers woke up and raised their spears, trying to pierce the peasant soldier's chest. But the vinegar looked rude, and still very hard and reliable. Under the protection of the vinegar, there was no injury at all, but he took a few steps to avoid the horseshoe, and then shook his and smashed at their warhorse.
These war horses may not have been eaten for a long time. The peasant soldiers have more enemies and fewer horses. They smash the horses first, get the people down, and then beat them.
In the eyes of future generations, cutting off the soldier ’s armor is like a ridiculous rural fighting. It has to be a small-scale one, which may not reach the point of the village, just a group. But from the perspective of both sides, this is almost a blood battle evenly matched!
The soldiers felt that they met a mysterious master, while the peasant soldiers showed confidence, only to feel that Wang Ba turned over, and the chess met each other.
After a bitter battle, the peasant soldiers became more and more crowded, and they won the final victory more and more bravely. When the police arrived, the invaders were already afraid of the ground.
The police officers had no time to tie up the soldiers with a rope. They looked a little awe at the eyes of the Fujiwara soldiers. It stands to reason that everyone is the same. They also served from the peasants, but they did not catch up with the training. I just saw the end of the battle between the two sides, it was so shocking!
The police officers couldn't help but bring a smile and greet their strange partners. This scene was seen by the soldiers, which was even more depressing. It turned out that these people wearing rattan armor and holding farm tools were really farmers. There was still a hint of fantasy, even if these People have long been clever at predicting their offense, so ambushing in this way makes people feel better.
"Look what you see, hurry up you pigs." The peasant soldiers won the battle. They knocked on the soldiers with a wooden stick, and the armor was cut off, causing the soldiers to cry.
Seeing that the person was wrong, he shouted: "Misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding. I am the cousin of Baron Northumberland. I came to visit my cousin Drizzt. Who knows that you treat us as an invasion? By."
Everyone stunned for a moment, and then even the simplest farmers showed suspicious expression.
How can there be such a coincidence that, at the beginning, they rammed the farmland with their weapons and stomped on the cultivated land. They were said to be relatives of the lord?
"Don't believe it, look at my underwear, embroidered family crest, I really came to visit relatives! You go and tell Drizzt, I am his cousin, Gao Wen, we played together in Kabiteborg! Relationship again Good! "Said the man who claimed to be Gao Wen, the more confident he was, the more he seemed to believe the nonsense that came out of his mouth.
Although everyone was skeptical of his remarks, this matter still had to be decided in front of the lord master. Before then, they would not have been able to slap these prisoners of war casually.
This is the case. The peasant soldiers also arrogantly helped to release the prisoners of war. They went all the way to the ground and wished to tell the owner of the manor that they had subdued a group of invaders and protected their homes.
...
Cui Qichao was very happy when he heard that another group of intruders had been arrested in the castle. He also thought about the number of people, a dozen people, um, not many.
Then he heard that the man claimed to be his cousin.
And the cousin who was robbed by his cousin ’s territory? Cui Qichao met them in the hall. He first told the housekeeper, "For those farmers who have won the battle, we have to reward them, and each family has a piglet."
Housekeeper: "......... Oh."
The steward recorded with a numb look, and he couldn't resist in the end anyway. This was the peasant soldiers who made a contribution. When they didn't make any contribution, the lord gave food rewards during training.
He has now learned to comfort himself. How to say that these peasants can defeat soldiers with armor and weapons, and it is also a great improvement in the strength of the territory.
Gao Wen's mouth has grown up. Is his cousin so rich? Free reward to the peasant soldier pig who won the battle?
"Cousin, cousin, it's me, I'm Gao Wen's cousin! Gao Wen's long legs!" Gao Wen stunned immediately. "Your aunt Rose's son, we played together at Kabiteborg that year. Your favorite cousin Do you remember? "
Cui Qichao looked at Gao Wen, and the steward also presented Gao Wen's family crest to Cui Qichao. Cui Qichao faintly remembered that there was probably such a character, but it was not important, and belonged to the knight class who married his family. This Gao Wen should also be a knight, but his behavior is too difficult to justify.
Gao Wen's original self-confident face was a little blank under Cui Qichao's stare. In fact, he knew it was the place of his cousin, but he really wanted to rob him at the beginning. Due to the loss of food and food, Gao Wen has been fighting autumn winds for a while, and lay on the estates of relatives until he was driven away. Later, everyone knew that the news simply did not accept Gao Wen. He had to change his method and plunder it in his village.
Gao Wen and Cui Qichao are not close, they just played as a kid, and the relationship is not as good as he exaggerated. He did not intend to reveal his true identity at the beginning, and he wanted to run if he grabbed something, otherwise he was caught. Do you have to be cheeky here?
Cui Qichao originally planned to say, "I haven't seen Gao Wen's cousin for a long time, but it seems impossible for him to make such a joke with me. You should go and grow vegetables in my field."
But at this time, two more people were taken in, one big and one small, and the young were only seven or eight years old. It is said that they probed their brains outside the ranch and were caught by the insatiable Wrangler.
When Gao Wen looked, his face changed. "Cousin, this is your close cousin Lance, don't you--"
He said, his words stopped, because this sentence exposed him to a certain extent.
If you are really visiting relatives, what to do to keep your children and attendants outside.
Lance was born blond and cute, but his body was a bit thin due to malnutrition. When he saw this, he cried loudly: "Master Baron, don't kill my father, you cut off my head, my father is just To find me something to eat. "
A child is a child, and he was anxious for a while, and he vomited all of Gao Wen's purpose. Now there seems to be no room for sophistication.
Cui Qichao listened, but Zai carefully looked at Lance, and after a short while, she said lightly, "You are my nephew Lance. Welcome to Northumberland. I haven't seen my mother for a long time. Relatives, presumably all this is a misunderstanding. Butler, let go of my cousin and nephew. "
Gao Wen's mouth opened slowly, "Ah ...?"
With a look at Cui Qichao, the housekeeper immediately stepped forward to untie the rope, but he only untied the rope on Gao Wen and Lance. The others waited, he waved, and was dragged down. Obviously, these people are not within the scope of Lord Lord's forgiveness to blood relatives.
The steward murmured in his heart, did not expect the Lord to be so kind, or was the Lord more old-fashioned than his cousin?
Cui Qichao invited people to sit beside him lightly, and asked a few recent situations casually.
Gao Wen didn't understand the meaning of his cousin. Just that look, he felt that he was going to be out of luck, so he had to bite the bullet and tell Cui Qichao that he was traveling around.
"Then stay with me for a while," Cui Qichao said. "It just happened, it's time to eat."
When it came to eating, Gao Wen murmured in the stomach, he smirked, "Okay, cousin, you are so generous."
The maids brought the meals up, and when Gao Wen saw it, his face was a bit subtle at once, and that mean temper made him whisper, "Cousin, how is this apple born? And meat, it's all one piece. One piece, did Northumberland owe it? "
Regarding the etiquette of nobles, if there is a guest, the most luxurious banquet must be arranged, and the swollen face must be filled with fat. Unless it is really unbearable, it will be as rude as Gao Wen's former guest house.
This poultry is not a whole, and the fruit is also raw, where is the life of nobles. It's not just Gao Wen, but Cui Qichao's stewards and knight captains have to dine together.
Although Gao Wen was impoverished, he still had a little self-confidence in his bones, but he also regretted it after speaking, knowing that he was not a serious guest, and carefully looked at Cui Qichao's complexion, fearing that he would explode.
Cui Qi paused for a moment, and if he looked at Gao Wen casually, thinking he was thinking that this Gao Wen should be very edible, then Shun Shui pushed the boat and said, "These are not prepared for my cousin. Southern-style suckling pig. "
The so-called southern flavor is a non-improved new recipe.
As soon as Gao Wen heard it, the saliva was about to drop, oh dear, a whole suckling pig! It seems that his cousin is really aristocratic, humble, tolerant, generous, also known as fool!
Cui Qichao looked at Lance again and whispered, "Good nephew, what do you want to eat?"
Lance looked at him timidly, and then at his father, very embarrassedly, and said, "I can eat with you."
Gao Wen glanced at his son and couldn't say anything about him. He was a stupid child. He didn't know what to choose.
