Chapter Forty-Six: Money Can Make Demons Grind

Because it was still early, when he came to the kitchen, Zhao Qingzao was busy cleaning up the dishes, estimating what to cook by the way, and lighting the fire in the stove by the way.

The fire was lit, and the pot was not yet hot, when I saw Shen Changting running over and said, "Green dates, don't cook vegetables, if there is leftovers, fry them directly, and it will be a good meal." ”

"Ah, why are you in such a hurry, is there something wrong in the afternoon?" Zhao Qingzao asked in surprise as he popped up from beside the stove.

Shen Changting lifted the lid of the pot and looked at it, and said, "It's okay, I'm just hungry." As he spoke, he hurriedly said, "Come and cook, and I'll add firewood to you." ”

"Okay, then I'll cook the rice first, and then fry some rice, and I was going to celebrate and cook something delicious. ”

Zhao Qingzao was speechless, seeing that Shen Changting really came over, he suddenly remembered that the other party was a kitchen killer, and immediately pushed Shen Changting and said, "Go out, you are not allowed to come in, be careful of going away, go quickly!"

"Okay, okay, you hurry. Shen Changting was helpless.

Zhao Qingzao snorted and said, "Didn't you eat in the morning?"

"Well, this is silver, for you. Shen Changting said, took out a few pieces of broken silver from his pocket and handed them to Zhao Qingzao.

Zhao Qingzao didn't reach out to take it, and frowned: "You take this money, why don't you eat in the morning?"

In fact, Zhao Qingzao gave a lot of silver yesterday, after all, now that Shen Changting is at work, if he doesn't have any silver on him, he will be blind if he is in a hurry, not to mention that there will inevitably be human contacts.

"It's okay, I didn't feel hungry at the time, I couldn't eat. Shen Changting shook his head, looking unconcerned.

Zhao Qingzao frowned suddenly, and said quietly: "Why are you like this, isn't this money just used to spend, although it is said that you are poor now, but you always have to eat, not to mention that you still have to take care of your body, how can you do it without eating, you are not allowed to be hungry in the future, your body is hungry, and this family will be over." ”

"Well, I know, you should be busy first. Shen Changting waved his hand, turned around and returned to the hall as he spoke.

Zhao Qingzao stomped her feet, and finally didn't say anything, Shen Changting is like this, if she doesn't look at it, she can't do it, and she is quite helpless.

Cooking rice, when the rice is cooked, it is fried directly, no need to stir-fry, with Zhao Qingjujube's profit, but in two quarters of an hour, it will be busy.

When the two bowls of fragrant fried rice were served, Shen Changting immediately smiled.

I have to say that Zhao Qingzao's foodie technology far beyond this era is really attractive in this year, even if it is the simplest fried rice, with eggs and vegetables, etc., the taste is also extremely delicious, at least Shen Changting is very cheerful to eat.

Although Zhao Qingzao felt that the ingredients in this year were not as abundant as in her previous life, even if it was fried rice, she could see Shen Changting's satisfied appearance, and she was also in a better mood and her appetite increased greatly.

After eating and resting for a while, Shen Changting wanted to copy the book again, but Zhao Qingzao did not allow it, but let him take a nap for half an hour first, and then let him go to work, no matter what, the body is important, and Zhao Qingzao does not dare to be sloppy about Shen Changting's body.

In the afternoon, Shen Changting was busy copying books, and Zhao Qingjujube was almost busy in the field, after thinking about it, he finally decided to dry some green vegetables.

Now the pickles are there!

Zhao Qingzao smiled, washed the greens, and was busy drying them.

How to get pickles, she didn't know much, so she chose the easiest way, softened it, soaked it in salt water, simple and trouble-free, and the taste was also very good, so she made do with it.

Busy until the evening, Zhao Qingzao burned an exquisite dinner, after the pig was marinated, it was placed for a long time, it was not hot this day, and the taste has not changed now.

In addition, she also specially cooked a bowl of red bean soup for Shen Changting and added some honey.

Seeing this, Zhao Qingzao didn't care, pursed his lips, and said: "Your body is important, as long as you are in good health, you can better make money to support your family, how dare I relax." ”

Moved by the promise, Shen Changting couldn't say it anymore, smiled helplessly, and finally went back to the room to copy the book.

Originally, Zhao Qingzao didn't want Shen Changting to copy books at night, which was not good for his eyes, and he couldn't bear Shen Changting to say that he couldn't sleep, and he had nothing to do when he was idle, so Zhao Qingzao also followed him, but he still lit two candles, one left and one right, to illuminate the room.

Not only that, Zhao Qingzao also took the initiative to sharpen ink for Shen Changting, and by the way, he was literate.

I don't know if every scholar has the determination to be a teacher lurking in their hearts, but whenever they encounter words that Zhao Qingzao doesn't know, Shen Changting always explains endlessly, and he talks about the Tao at the head, and even quotes scriptures, although Zhao Qingzao looks confused and doesn't understand it at all, but listening to it, he feels that Shen Changting is suddenly tall.

And what surprised Zhao Qingzao even more was that Shen Changting's explanation did not delay him from continuing to write at all.

Originally, Zhao Qingzao was worried about her stomach full of poems and words, when she was illiterate, it was easy to make people suspicious when she spoke inadvertently, and she really didn't want to be illiterate, but looking at Shen Changting's extremely serious appearance, she was not sloppy at once, and followed the study seriously.

The Buddhist scriptures are very thin, and there are not so many words in the books in the bookstore, after yesterday afternoon's copying, plus this afternoon, in the evening, but more than an hour, a Buddhist scripture was copied.

When Shen Changting finished copying, Zhao Qingzao estimated the time, and not long after the first watch, about nine o'clock, he didn't let Shen Changting continue to work.

Using the hot water in the stove, Shen Changting took a bath, and persuaded Shen Changting to rest, knowing that he would get up early tomorrow, but Shen Changting didn't insist.

It was still the rooster and the dog barking that woke up Zhao Qingzao.

When she opened her eyes, she saw that the sky was already bright, and she couldn't help but get up with a grunt, Shen Changting still had to go to work, she was worried that Shen Changting hadn't gotten up yet, but when she got dressed and walked out of the room, she found that Shen Changting was already washing his face.

"Brother Changting, use cold water again. ”

Zhao Qingzao frowned slightly, this thought of hot water could not be kept warm except for putting it on the road, and it was basically cold every other night.

"Well, it's okay, you won't have to do your work. ”

Shen Changting smiled disappreciatively.

Zhao Qingzao was silent, and he didn't say much, and secretly made a note in his heart, planning to prepare a small charcoal stove from today, at least at night to leave some warm water.

Thinking like this, she also went to wash up by herself, and Shen Changting saw this and asked, "Why don't you sleep for a while." ”

"I'll go with you to town later. Zhao Qingzao replied without thinking about it.

"What are you going to do?" Shen Changting didn't remember what else was going on now, there was nothing missing at home, and Zhao Qingzao didn't need to make a trip at all.

"Help you return the book, didn't you copy a copy last night, I just went to ask the housekeeper if there are anything else, this kind of thing is handed over to you, I don't worry. ”

Zhao Qingzao replied with confidence, and did not forget to glance at Shen Changting as he spoke.

Shen Changting was speechless for a moment, he also discovered that Zhao Qingzao was indeed better at communicating than him, but then he sighed: "This is okay, but you can pay more attention in the future, you are not a little girl now, sometimes you have to avoid it, after all, men and women are not careful, although the countryside is not particular, but there are many people who chew the root of the tongue." ”

"Well, it's okay, I'm not with you. ”

Zhao Qingzao smiled, she was helpless about this kind of thing, this was a limitation of the times, and Shen Changting was tolerant enough to her at this point.

……

The town is still the same town, and it has not changed because Shen Changting became the master bookkeeper, and the big mansion is still the same big mansion, as always, magnificent and extraordinary.

When Zhao Qingzao and Shen Changting came to the door of the mansion again, the door of the mansion was still closed, separating the inside and outside into two different worlds.

Zhao Qingzao stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Maybe they came early, or maybe the people inside were too busy, and they waited for a long time before the door slowly opened.

"Mr. Shen, it's you, come in. ”

It was still the housekeeper who opened the door, and when he saw Shen Changting and Zhao Qingzao, the impatience on his face was instantly hidden, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he politely invited the two of them in.

"Thank you, butler. ”

Zhao Qingzao thanked with a smile.

Money can make ghosts grind, I have to say that the silver or two last time was really worth it, at least now people are much more polite, and let them go into the yard to rest.

There was still no one else in the yard, it looked very deserted, Zhao Qingzao didn't think that this family was thin, she estimated that the most likely thing was that the young and strong people had gone out to do errands, and there was no one left in the hometown.

As soon as Zhao Qingzao sat down, he got straight to the point, took out the Buddhist scriptures that he copied yesterday, handed them to the housekeeper, and said: "Butler, this is a copy that my brother Changting just copied last night, and I sent it to the old lady, and the rest, I'm afraid I have to wait for two days, please report it." ”

"Okay, I'll go. ”

The housekeeper copied the books, walked to the backyard in a hurry, and soon handed over a few books to Shen Changting with a few books in his hand, and said: "This is the old lady who has cleaned up these days, you look busy and come over, so copy it first, the old lady said, the salary and so on are calculated together, if it is urgent, you will say it when the time comes." ”

"It's okay, there's no hurry. ”

Such a big family, the most important thing is face, Zhao Qingzao was not worried about the other party hacking their little silver taels, took the book from Shen Changting's hand, wrapped it carefully, and quickly got up and said: "Thank you housekeeper, my brother Changting still has something to do, so we won't bother." ”

"Eh, okay, go slowly. The housekeeper's politeness to Zhao Qingzao is really pleasing to the eye, and it also seems very polite.

Shen Changting also arched his hand, and immediately left the mansion with Zhao Qingzao.

As soon as he came out, Zhao Qingzao raised a few books in his baggage, and said with a smile: "How about it, Brother Changting, you say, is the one or two silver flowers worth it?"

"Value. Shen Changting nodded with a smile, looked at Zhao Qingzao as a treasure, and said angrily: "You are the best, okay?"

"Of course, I have something better. ”

Zhao Qingzao raised his eyebrows.

After these days of getting along, Shen Changting gradually got used to Zhao Qingzao's temper, and he could occasionally say a few words about these little jokes, unlike before, everything looked serious.

"Hehe, don't talk about it, let's go, let's go get something to eat first. ”

Zhao Qingzao smiled mischievously, pulled Shen Changting and left.

Now that she is familiar with this town, she pulled Zhao Qingzao to the steamed bun shop, bought a few big steamed buns for Shen Changting, and said, "Brother Changting, give, this is a treat for you, remember in the future, don't forget to have breakfast in the morning." ”

"Good, good. Shen Changting was a little crying and laughing, took the buns, took two and gave them to Zhao Qingzao and said, "You can eat some too." ”

"Good. ”
