Chapter 169: Overreaction
PS: The first update, there are two more today!!
*********
What happened at home, they didn't know about Qiduo.
After the market in Yutan Town dispersed, Tan Dejin drove the ox cart and took the seven flowers and six oranges to Yueke to deliver the goods.
After settling the account with Yue Kelai, the three of them hurried to Tonglin County.
Half of the 200 catties of water celery were sold, all the more than 100 catties of residual lotus root were sold, and dozens of catties of bean sprouts were also sold, and they were sold for a few taels of silver.
Although they had received a few hundred taels of silver at one time, they still felt very satisfied when they looked at the broken silver and copper plates in their hands.
Silver is the accumulation of one or two taels, and the accumulation of small amounts adds up, and there will be no gap in my heart, and I look down on these small money.
Tan Dejin sent Qiduo to the Spring Breeze Proud Building, and he took Liuju to sell lotus roots.
However, Qiduo suggested that they not go to the market today, but first go to various restaurants in the county to try it.
Qiduo first went to the food city to take a look, saw people coming and going, it was very lively, and he was relieved, and then went to Xu Youxuan to make squirrel fish.
If she hadn't agreed to this, she wouldn't have come to the food city today.
Half an hour later, Xu Youxuan entered Mrs. Xu's house with fish in one hand and soup in the other.
"Grandpa, the squirrel Guiyu is here." Xu Youxuan shouted with a grin.
Place the plate on the dining table and pour the soup sweat over the fish according to the method taught by Qiduo.
With the sound of 'zizi', a rich fragrance fills the room.
Old lady Xu, who was sitting next to her, got up when she smelled the fragrance and walked to the dining table.
Realistic and agile shapes. Bright red color. And this tangy fragrance. Let Old Lady Xu's eyebrows stretch out, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Well, okay, I'll try it." Old Lady Xu smiled and nodded.
Xu Shengkang saw that his father was happy, he was even happier, took the chopsticks and handed them to Mrs. Xu, saying, "Dad." This fish is beautifully cooked, if it weren't for the fact that it was made by Guiyu in advance, I don't know what kind of dish it was. ”
"Well, yes, yes, looking at this, I really can't bear to move chopsticks. However, smelling the fragrance, the gluttonous worm in my stomach was hooked again. But I haven't eaten osmanthus for some days, so I'll try it. Old lady Xu made a joke of herself.
As soon as this mood is good, the tone of speech will naturally become relaxed and funny.
Xu Youxuan and Xu Shengkang glanced at each other. They all smiled.
Then he looked at Old Lady Xu and expected him to nod.
Old lady Xu sandwiched a piece of fish meat into the mouth. After tasting it carefully, his eyes lit up, he couldn't stop nodding, he exhaled continuously, and ate a few more bites in a row.
Then he said to Xu Shengkang and Xu Youxuan, "Come on, you guys also sit down and taste it, eating osmanthus fish for all these years, this is the best taste." The fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with the umami of fish but no fishy smell. Well done, well done! ”
Xu Shengkang sat down when he heard this, and also took chopsticks to taste it, and he was full of praise.
Seeing that his grandfather and father both said that the fish was well done, Xu Youxuan was the happiest.
When the fish was halfway through eating, Mrs. Xu remembered a key question, looked up and asked Xu Youxuan, "Xuan'er, which master made this dish, called him over, and said that I have a reward." ”
"Hehe, Dad, who else can make such a delicious fish except for Little Seventh Girl." Xu Shengkang replied with a smile.
He looked at Mrs. Xu seriously, hoping to catch some joy from his father's face or eyes.
However, he was disappointed.
Because the smile on Old Lady Xu's face suddenly disappeared, and her face fell.
Old lady Xu's eyes narrowed, and she suddenly raised her hand and swept the plate of half-baked cinnamon fish and the fish to the ground.
There were a few crunch sounds, the plate smashed to pieces, the fish was scattered, and the soup splashed everywhere.
Xu Shengkang was annoyed, he shouldn't be too anxious.
He deliberately asked Qiduo to make Guiyu, hoping that Mrs. Xu would eat happily and change his impression of Qiduo and recognize Qiduo.
If this trick is feasible, in the future, Qiduoduo will appear in front of Mrs. Xu, so that Mrs. Xu will slowly eliminate the resentment in her heart, be able to forgive the Xu family, and let the family reunite.
But who expected that Old Lady Xu's reaction would be so fierce, he really didn't expect it.
He originally thought that even if his father didn't want to hear the name related to the Xu family, at most he wouldn't eat this fish.
Alas!
Xu Shengkang sighed in his heart.
Old lady Xu's hatred for the Xu family is far beyond Xu Shengkang's imagination, and more than ten years have passed, and this resentment has increased instead of disappearing.
Xu Youxuan's reaction to his grandfather was even more stunned.
He still doesn't know the identity of Qiduo, so he can't figure out why grandpa doesn't like Qiduo like this, could it be that Qiduo has offended grandpa.
"You're all going to get out of here, a bunch of unscrupulous people." Old lady Xu shouted at her son and grandson.
"Yes." Xu Shengkang and Xu Youxuan didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly came out of the house obediently, not even daring to clean up the debris on the ground.
There was another sound of smashing things in the room.
Hearing this, Xu Youxuan's heart trembled.
"Father, why did grandpa have such an overreaction when he heard Xiao Qi's name?" Xu Youxuan asked Xu Shengkang.
Xu Shengkang let out a long sigh and shook his head, "I'm also strange, I'll go and ask when your master is in a better mood." ”
He didn't want to tell Xu Youxuan the truth, so as to save his son a burden in his heart, it would affect the cooperation with Qiduo, and then affect the business of the food city, which would not be good.
Xu Youxuan naturally didn't doubt his father's words, and nodded.
He hopes to know the reason for the Tao as soon as possible, so that he can untie the knot in his grandfather's heart and let his grandfather accept Qiduo, otherwise this heart will always be carried up, worried that his grandfather will really not let him cooperate with Qiduo.
Although Mrs. Xu said that the food city would be managed by him alone, after all, all the money in the opening of the food city was from Mrs. Xu, and the food city was still Mr. Xu's.
Xu Youxuan's heart was heavy.
It's a good thing, but it has become like this, it's really ...... Alas!
After Qiduo made the squirrel Guiyu, he left the food city to find Tan Dejin, and rushed back to Yutan Town to find Shen Huairen.
Tan Dejin and Liuju waited for seven flowers in front of the famous pastry shop in the county.
"Daddy. Second sister. How is the lotus root selling? Qiduo asked with a smile. And looked at the bamboo basket on the car and found that there were fewer lotus roots.
"Well, it's not bad, we went to those restaurants and restaurants, they wanted to drive us away, but when we saw that it was lotus root, we asked the price, and we weighed it for each. Some are twenty pounds, some are fifty pounds, and even water celery has been sold for some money. Like an excited little magpie, Liuju told the story.
"That's good, let's go buy some snacks." Qiduo happily put her arm around Liuju.
Tan Dejin watched the oxcart at the door, Qiduo and Liuju went to the dim sum shop, bought two boxes of Shen Nan's favorite osmanthus cake, and bought four boxes of other dim sum, ready to give to Han Hewen and Uncle Chen, who was the gatekeeper.
These days. Uncle Chen gave a lot of convenience, and Han Hewen helped deliver food every day. I have to thank you for it.
The two shops separated from the dim sum shop happened to have purses to sell, and Qiduo hurriedly pulled six oranges in.
"Duo, what do you want to buy? Tell me what you want, and I'll embroider one for you. Liuju picked up an embroidered handkerchief and looked at it, then put it down, pouted, cut, I didn't embroider it well.
"It's too late." Qiduo smiled and shook his head, and then chose a magpie Dengmei's purse.
The magpie is the auspicious bird of the good news, and it is more appropriate to send Shen Nan, hoping that he will be able to join the branch and his brother in the future.
Well, yes, that's good.
Qiduo was very satisfied with the purse he chose, handed it to the shopkeeper, asked the price, and then paid.
"You're going to give it away?" Liuju looked at Qiduo and winked and smiled evilly.
"yes." Qiduo replied very calmly.
"Hey, hey! I know it, it must be given to Shen Nan. Liuju laughed even worse.
Qiduo was covered with goosebumps when she laughed, patted her arm, and snorted, "Second sister, what are you laughing at, I bought it for him." People helped us last time, but we were so wronged, this is to show gratitude, hum! ”
"Yes, yes, as a token of appreciation." Liuju hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and one of them laughed sullenly, and didn't say anything else.
Silly sister, do you know what it means to give other boys sachets?
Hey!
Liuju laughed out loud in her heart, she decided to go home and tell Erxia about it, so that Erxia would also follow behind and have fun.
Qiduo didn't know why Liuju was laughing, so she put the sachet and snack together and got into the ox cart.
When I arrived at Huairen Academy, before I arrived, Qiduo had a snack, and together with Liuju, knocked on the door of the academy with a smile.
When Uncle Chen saw Qiduo, he was already very enthusiastic, and after chatting with each other, Qiduo handed him the dim sum, and then said that he was looking for Han Hewen and Shen Nan.
"Okay, wait a minute." Uncle Chen took the snack with a smile, and then hurriedly ran to call someone.
After waiting for a while, Uncle Chen opened the door again, and Shen Nan, dressed in a blue robe, appeared in the sight of Qiduo and Liuju.
However, Han Hewen was not seen.
After greeting Shen Nan, Qiduo looked around and asked, "Hey, why didn't you see Han Hewen?" ”
"He can't come to me for something, and he has something to say to me." Shen Nan's dark eyes glared at Qiduo, and his tone was a little displeased.
Seeing the way he put his hands behind his back, Liuju wanted to laugh a little, and then made an excuse and she left.
Qiduo handed the dim sum to Shen Nan, "Well, these two boxes of osmanthus cake are for you, and those two boxes of walnut cake are for Han Hewen, thank you for me." ”
Shen Nan took the snack and nodded, "Zhilu said." ”
"By the way, the purse you want, with the snacks, you can see if you like it or not." Qiduo said again.
"So fast?" Shen Nan was surprised and delighted, and his little face, which had been tense, finally showed a smile.
He looked down for his purse.
After taking out the purse, he looked at it carefully, and then looked at Qiduo.
Seeing his unhappy face, Qiduo hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, don't you like this?" So what do you like, I'll go back and buy another one. ”
Shen Nan's lips pursed, and he handed the purse to Qiduo.
"There is no sincerity at all, such purses are all over the street, if I like it, I might as well buy it myself, I'm not out of money." Shen Nan's voice was a little stiff.
Qiduo was a little confused at this moment.
What does this kid mean, he doesn't like this, what does he like?
"But it's almost like this in other stores, what should I do?" Qiduo asked weakly, he was really defeated by him.
This child is not only awkward, but also difficult to serve.
Alas, who owes himself a favor, he has to be careful.
"Hmph, can't you embroider one yourself?" Shen Nan snorted lightly, and his snow-white ears suddenly turned into a beautiful pink.
Embroidered purse!
Seven flowers are really confused, and they can't embroider!
"This is for you, I made it myself, go in first." When Qiduo was in a dilemma, Shen Nan quickly put something in her palm, and then the person quickly entered the academy.
She seemed to see a warm smile on his face. (To be continued......)
