CHAPTER XXIX

After the people in the courtyard dispersed, Mama Shu Ci entered the room with a tray, Zhao Yiyun was sitting on the couch and closed her eyes to recuperate, she didn't open her eyes when she heard the footsteps, and only asked, "What's going on today?" ”

Mama Shu Ci approached the small table where the tray was placed on the couch, and replied, "Aunt Liu is too careful, so let's stumble on the young master!" Young Master Biao has already sent Lian Ming to investigate, Lian Ming is a proper person, and this matter will have a result in the evening. ”

More heart, more heart, it's just that he and Wu Mingyao are too close, and I'm afraid that they will change their relationship. Indeed, he was a gentleman, and no matter how close he was to Wu Mingyao, others would not think much about it, but he is now a brother, and he is a cousin with Wu Mingyao, and it will indeed cause criticism if he is as close as before, even if he whitewashes the peace, this is inevitable.

Zhao Yiyun's heart was faintly angry, he clenched his fists tightly and tried to suppress his anger, what Aunt Liu did this time undoubtedly opened the scar on his heart that had not been good. These days, Zhao Yiyun seems to have accepted the changes in his body, but in fact, he has been trying to maintain the appearance of the past, he is always more willing to wear the clothes when he was a man, and he always looks like a man when he talks and acts. But today's events have been cruelly told to him, he is already a brother, and from now on he will be bound by those ridiculous and pitiful etiquette, and he will no longer be as comfortable as before.

"Mama, when I'm better, let's go back to Dadu as much as possible."

"Alas. Don't worry, young master, I will pay more attention to it in the future. Mama Shu Ci responded, but she felt very uncomfortable. Secretly wiping the corners of her eyes, Mama Shu Ci picked up the steaming pork rib porridge on the table, and said, "Young master, you haven't eaten a few bites of breakfast, you have to take medicine later, drink some porridge and turn your stomach up." ”

Zhao Yiyun opened his eyes at this time, his eyes swept over the porridge bowl in front of him and landed on the plate of chicken paste loquat spring, pinched a butterfly carved with cucumber on the side of the plate, and asked, "Is this the young man invited by Mingyao to do it, it is chic." Qin Yun was noisy outside just now, is that for this? ”

"Qin Yun's temper was a little impatient, and when she saw that Lang Jun standing at the door, there was no one next to her, so she was angry, not for this." Mama Shu Ci said, scooped a spoonful of pork rib porridge and handed it to Zhao Yiyun's mouth.

The pork rib porridge has a strong aroma, smelling this taste Zhao Yiyun had a little appetite, so he didn't avoid it, and opened his mouth to drink it. When Mama Shu Ci saw Zhao Yiyun eating, she hurriedly used chopsticks to pick up a little meat from the ribs, mixed vegetable cubes and porridge and scooped another spoonful, Zhao Yiyun still opened her mouth to eat.

This porridge is not made with pork rib soup, but the cooked porridge is remade with boiled broth, and the taste is a little lacking, but the pork ribs are fresh and tender, the vegetables and shrimp are also fresh, and the taste is also good, so Zhao Yiyun ate five or six spoonfuls in a row before stopping.

After drinking some porridge, Zhao Yiyun's appetite opened, and he became a little interested in the plate of loquat that he had never seen, and he put one in front of him and asked: "What kind of dish is this loquat, but it is the first time I have seen it, what is stuffed in it?" ”

"I forgot to ask, but it looks good. Young master, you have a very bad cough, it's good to eat two loquat to stop coughing. ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yiyun put the small egg-sized loquat to his mouth and took a bite, and the fragrance of the loquat suddenly spread. Because the chicken tribute vegetable filling is steamed, the juice is abundant, and when you bite into it, the juice overflows, and the mouth is full of fresh and fragrant.

"Young master, how does it taste, this is the first time I've seen cooking with loquats, it's a novelty."

Zhao Yiyun ate the loquat in two bites and said: "It tastes very good, go back and let Mingyao give a few rewards, he also has a heart to make loquats." ”

"I'm afraid it's not good to give a reward, Xiao Langjun who does this is a scholar, let's go back and reward two things."

"Reader, no wonder it looks sven." Zhao Yiyun said that he had also seen Du Qiyue before, and his impression was not bad. After thinking about it, he ordered: "Take a jar of tea that we brought from the south and send it over, everyone who reads loves this." ”

Du Qiyue led the little donkey from the three animal street and ran to the side of the road to grind the soles, the three animal street is too dirty, full of animal feces, Du Qiyue avoided the bottom of the road or unfortunately walked a few luck, fortunately the soles of his shoes are thick, otherwise he has to die.

Du Qiyue bought four pairs of thin-soled cloth shoes at a shoe stall, and went to a ready-to-wear store to buy two sets of short shirts. Du Qiyue didn't plan to go to Zuifulou either, so after touching his stomach, he found a noodle stall that looked fairly clean on the side of the road, and spent fifteen yuan to order a bowl of meat sauce noodles for lunch.

There are actually a lot of delicious things in this Dahu town, and the bowl of meat sauce noodles ordered by Du Qiyue tastes very good. This noodle is somewhat similar to jajanjangmyeon, where the cooked noodles are pulled out and poured with sauce. However, this sauce is more like a Western soup, a bowl of noodles poured with a particularly thick spoonful of meat sauce, although there is not much meat, but in the sprinkle with some minced green onions, it smells very fragrant, and it also makes people particularly appetizing.

After eating his stomach, Du Qiyue rode the little donkey back to Willow Bay Village, because it was a little difficult and slow to ride without a saddle, but it was indeed much easier than letting Du Qiyue walk back on foot.

The heavy rain for three days delayed a lot of work in the village, and as soon as the sky cleared today, everyone ran outside and began to step on the rapeseed, which can be done by adults and children, so now the whole village is in a lot of noise. When Du Qiyue rode by on a little donkey, he received a bunch of envious or jealous looks.

After arriving home, Du Qiyue locked the little donkey in the yard and went back to the bedroom, he skillfully ran to the side of the bed to move the bed board away, went under the bed himself, lifted a big brick in the innermost corner, dug out a small jar from it, put the rest of the money to buy things into the small jar, and then carefully sealed the jar and buried it back.

This is the place that Du Qiyue found when he was rummaging around the house before, and the original owner didn't know it. The floor tiles of this house were laid by Du Fugui himself, and he should have deliberately kept them for Du Qiyue to hide money and valuables in the future, but he died before he could tell Du Qiyue himself.

In fact, there are several such places in the village where money is hidden, Du Qiyue suspects that there is such a secret small place in Du Fugui and Zhao Momo's room, but he didn't go to look for it, because Zhao Momo didn't tell the original owner before he died, and it is estimated that even if there is a place to hide money, the money will be gone.

After putting away the money, Du Qiyue returned to the yard and pulled the little donkey that was gnawing on the weeds to the livestock shed in the backyard, and put it in a fence with the old cow and two sheep. The little donkey couldn't get used to it for a while, and after two anxious calls, he paced the ground with his hooves.

"This will be your home from now on, good girl!" Du Qiyue patted the little donkey's brain through the fence, and then took some young grass from the side and fed it this morning.

The little donkey sniffed at first and refused to eat, but several of its neighbors were not polite at all, and when they came up and munched on it, and when they saw that their food had been robbed, the little stubborn donkey lowered his head and joined the ranks of eating.

Du Qiyue threw some grass into the enclosure next door where the two pigs were kept and walked to the chicken shed, he was in a hurry this morning, and he didn't have time to get the eggs. When the hens saw Du Qiyue coming, they knew that they had something to eat, and they ran out of the nest one after another, clucking at Du Qiyue.

Du Qiyue sprinkled a handful of tender grass into it, and the hens all began to peck around. At this time, Du Qiyue lifted the wooden board on the top of the chicken coop and took out four eggs from the nest, two of which were still steaming. Their hens are competitive, and they can basically give raw eggs every day, but Du Qiyue has never lost them, and these chickens are definitely the best in the village.

There are several shallow pits sealed with thin mud next to the chicken coop, which Du Qiyue dug as soon as he came, sprinkled with boiled and chopped straw, Du Qiyue will water these shallow pits every day, and now there are many insects growing in them, and every day or two Du Qiyue will dig a shallow pit for these six little hens to peck at the insects themselves, and now these chickens have obviously more eggs than before, and they are all red-core eggs.

After finishing these family chores, Du Qiyue went to Chen's house to help. There is a large open space in front of Chen's house, and several families are working there at this time, all of them are constantly talking under their feet, and they have to shout every other paragraph, and they don't know what they are talking about.

Du Qiyue walked over and someone saw him, and one of the good-looking and lively women shouted at him: "Xiaoyue, where have you been this morning?" Do you know that Qian Yin'er in Liushutun Village hanged himself yesterday! ”

Du Qiyue paused, turned his head and asked, "What hanging?" ”

"You don't know, didn't that Qian Yin'er hook up with a gentleman in the town behind your back, you went to divorce him that day, and the gentleman in the town knew it, and sent a matchmaker to the Qian family. Where can this Qian Yin'er withstand such a blow, he is crying at home every day, and he hanged himself yesterday without thinking about it. Fortunately, his father and mother found out in time that nothing happened to the person, but this reputation is getting worse and worse. The woman said, looking at Du Qiyue with her eyes, wanting to see how Du Qiyue would react when she heard this.

Several people around were also staring at Du Qiyue, but they all knew that Du Qiyue used to be very good to that Qian Yin'er, and he had to give gifts to everyone during the New Year's holidays, he must have feelings, maybe now he knows that the gentleman in the town doesn't want money and silver, so he will go back and pick up broken shoes!

Du Qiyue really doesn't have a good impression of Qian Yin's white lotus, but the two of them have long been fine, and now Qian Yin is good or not, but it has nothing to do with him Du Qiyue, and he won't waste his love on inconsequential people.

"This sister-in-law, what do you tell me to do this, the affairs of the Qian family have nothing to do with me, and I don't have time to take care of these other people's idle things." Du Qiyue said, and then walked to Liu Momo without squinting.

Liu Momo snorted at the woman who spoke just now, crossed his waist and said, "Zhou Cao, there is no place for your tongue to grow, do you want me to cut it for you." The affairs of your own family do not bother you, but you are interested in nagging other people's affairs! ”

Du Qiyue almost wore a green hat in front of the parties and said that it was not good, and the woman named Zhou Cao was scolded by Liu Momo and curled her mouth, and she didn't say anything.

The next day, Du Qiyue officially started work, and he rode a little donkey to Zuifu Building early in the morning, because it was still too early, and not many people in the restaurant came, and the chefs basically didn't come. Shopkeeper Li walked in from the backyard door with a yawn, and when he saw Du Qiyue, he said with a smile: "Du family boy, why did you come so early?" ”

"Uncle Li, I'm here to familiarize myself with our restaurant first, although I have been here a few times before, I am not familiar with it, I am afraid that I will make a mistake in the union later." Du Qiyue made a gesture and said.

"Okay, I'll take you to get to know the people in the kitchen first, your father used to work here, everyone is an old acquaintance, and he will take care of you somewhat, but there are many disputes in such a big restaurant, you usually pay more attention to yourself." Shopkeeper Li instructed while taking Du Qiyue to the restaurant.

Du Qiyue understands this truth, the workplace is highly competitive, and things like the feelings of other friends are naturally on the side, and he is definitely not easy to mix with as a newcomer to the specially recruited workplace, so he naturally has to be humble. And he chose to work in the restaurant where Du Fugui worked, in fact, there are pros and cons, the advantage is that under normal circumstances, he will get more care, and the disadvantage is that the people who didn't deal with Du Fugui before have now become people who don't deal with him. In such a large restaurant, there are dozens of people working, and Du Fugui always has one or two opponents, and these opponents will become the most difficult thing for Du Qiyue to overcome when he first starts working.
