Bai Mengdie suddenly thought that Chen Jingxuan had a resort near here, and asked Chen Ziqian: "Your cousin has built a resort here, and he should develop a tourist area, who will come to live without a tourist resort?" ”

Chen Ziqian nodded and said, "Of course, we have to develop a tourist area." ”

Bai Mengdie asked with interest: "Which tourist area does your cousin want to develop?" ”

"It's not far from the resort at the Fairy Lake, where there are husband and wife peaks, love valleys, and the scenery is very beautiful."

Chen Ziqian glanced at her, "Have you ever been there to play?" ”

Bai Mengdie searched the memory of the original owner: "Yes, there are a hundred flowers blooming in spring, lush in summer, and maple leaves like fire in autumn, which are all secondary, the most important thing is that the fairy lake is endless, and the water is clear, so beautiful." ”

She suddenly realized that "huh": "The tourist area developed by your cousin extends to the vicinity of our town!" ”

"yes." Chen Ziqian said, "Your local county government is going to build a pedestrian street in order to cooperate with my cousin's tourism project. ”

"Oh?" Bai Mengdie's heart moved, "Then do you know when the construction will officially start?" ”

"At the end of this year, the government will encourage locals to build houses and storefronts on New Street." Chen Ziqian said, "I heard that Xinjie will introduce tap water, and the water source comes from the unpolluted Fairy Lake, and the water quality should be very good." ”

Bai Mengdie was even more moved when she heard it.

Their family has four houses in the city, and the food stall business is also good, and they will definitely not return to the countryside to develop.

But you can use the money to build a small building with a façade on the new street for the old man and the old lady to live in, rub the popularity of the tourist scenic spot, and do some small business.

It can not only pass the time, but also make a little money, so that the second elder can live a leisurely life, isn't it better than farming.

And Xinjie has tap water, so you don't have to go to the pond to fetch water, which can make the life of the two elders more comfortable.

Bai Mengdie said: "If there is a formal approval to encourage the construction of houses and facades in Xinjie, you can tell me." ”

Chen Ziqian glanced at her and asked, "Do you want to buy land and build a house in Xinjie?" ”

"I have this plan, but I can't get the money when I see it."

"There's no money to borrow from me."

Bai Mengdie shook her head: "Our family still owes you money and hasn't paid it back, how can we borrow your money again?" ”

The corners of Chen Ziqian's mouth hooked up a wicked smile: "Isn't it your mortgage?" I don't mind lending you any more money. ”

Bai Mengdie glanced at him and changed the subject: "Why do you suddenly want to transfer schools, I haven't heard you say it before." ”

Chen Ziqian said in a natural tone: "You are no longer studying in the county No. 1 middle school, and I will definitely not stay, I will go wherever you go." ”

Bai Mengdie blinked, and her long eyelashes were flying like butterfly wings: "So willful? ”

Chen Ziqian sighed shallowly: "It's not willful, it's affectionate." ”

Bai Mengdie automatically ignored his words of teasing her, and nodded: "It's okay for you to transfer schools with me, I'm really afraid that you will have no one to take care of you alone, and you don't want to be motivated." ”

At least she can control him and let him rise up, which can be regarded as rewarding him.

The two arrived in town while talking, Bai Mengdie asked Chen Ziqian to park the car on the side of the road, and she got out of the car to buy some meat or something.

Chen Ziqian wanted to accompany her, Bai Mengdie didn't agree, it was noon, the sun was dead, she had a sun hat, Chen Ziqian didn't, she was afraid that he would be sunburned.

Chen Ziqian saw that she felt so sorry for herself, and she was happy.

When passing by the door of Bai Bozhi's store, I saw that the three outer floors of the store were full of people eating melons, and Bai Mengdie didn't pay attention to it.

Bai Bozhi and his wife have no character to speak of in business, and they often quarrel with customers and even fight, and I am afraid that this is the case now.

But when I heard the discussion of those people who ate melons, I realized that it was Bai Bozhi who invited a car to send his wife to the provincial capital to treat snake venom, but he didn't give the driver the money to charter the car when he turned around.

Now the driver called a group of people to ask Bai Bozhi for money, but Bai Bozhi refused to give it, and the driver smashed his shop in a fit of anger.

Bai Bozhi immediately called the police, and now the police are handling the case.

Many people who eat melons are very sympathetic to the driver, and they finally saved Bai Bozhi's wife's life, but they ended up like this.

Everyone shook their heads, saying that they couldn't help Bai Bozhi by helping anyone, and they had to be calculated by him if they helped him~

Bai Mengdie listened to it, came to the bazaar, and bought pork belly, tenderloin and pig tongue.

When he was about to leave, he saw a tofu stall selling edamame tofu, Bai Mengdie's eyes immediately lit up like a light bulb, and her saliva almost flew down three thousand feet.

It's been a long time since I've eaten edamame tofu.

She hurriedly bought some edamame tofu, and bought some dried incense by the way, and then ran to get into Chen Ziqian's Audi car.

Chen Ziqian asked suspiciously while starting the car: "Did you get out of the car and step on?" ”

Bai Mengdie looked at the soles of her shoes, and said blankly for a moment: "No wow!" ”

Suddenly came to his senses: "Is this what you smell?" ”

With that, he put the plastic bag containing the edamame tofu under his nose and gave him a sniff.

Chen Ziqian almost fainted from the stench: "Take it!" Take! ”

Bai Mengdie smiled and retracted the hand holding the edamame tofu, and then tied the mouth of the plastic bag tightly, so that there was no smell of edamame in the carriage.

Chen Ziqian frowned and glanced at the edamame tofu in her hand and asked, "Is the shit hairy?" ”

Bai Mengdie was so angry that she blew her beard and glared: "Don't shit and shit all day long, this is a delicacy, this is called edamame tofu, it's delicious, I'll make it for you later." ”

"Forget it, I won't eat it if I die!" Chen Ziqian flatly refused.

Bai Mengdie stretched out her index finger and shook it: "Don't be too absolute, I'm afraid that you will fall in love with this dish after tasting edamame tofu." ”

Chen Ziqian muttered: "How is it possible? ”

A few minutes later, the Audi drove to the door of Bai Mengdie's grandmother's house, and as soon as Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian got out of the car, the snow leopard rushed out of the courtyard and greeted them warmly.

Not far away, the elderly villagers in the village gathered together to look at the Audi car in front of Bai Mengdie's grandmother's house, pointing and discussing.

Everyone said that in Baijia Village, I am afraid that there are local chickens that are about to fly up the branches and become phoenixes.

Mrs. Bai was cooking lunch with one hand in the kitchen, and when she heard Bai Mengdie's voice calling her grandmother, she quickly poked her head out of the kitchen, and saw Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian coming together, and a big chrysanthemum smiled on her happy face.

"I said that you were going to go to school to get your transcript when you returned to school today, and you would definitely come back, but you haven't come back until now, I thought you wouldn't come."

"Why don't you come? You have to look at your grandparents. As soon as she returned to the countryside, Bai Mengdie changed her native accent.

She walked to the kitchen and put edamame and dried incense next to the dishes and chopsticks.

Put the pork tongue, fine pork belly and tenderloin in a pot.

I scooped water from the jar into a basin, washed the meat ingredients and put them in a soup basin.

When Bai Mengdie was doing this, the snow leopard kept following her, salivating greedily at the meat.

"Why did you buy so many good dishes?" The old lady glanced at the meat in the soup pot, put a large pot of braised winter melon in a soup pot, added a scoop of cold water to the pot, and asked casually, "How are the final grades?" ”

Chen Ziqian excitedly replied, "Fluttershy did very well in the exam this time, ranking first in the whole grade and winning a scholarship of 300 yuan. ”

The old lady's eyes widened in disbelief and asked Bai Mengdie, "What Ziqian said is true?" ”

"Uh-huh." Bai Mengdie gently pulled the old lady aside, she stood by the stove, washed the pot with the scoop of cold water that the old lady poured just now, and then added a scoop of cold water again, "It's because I got a scholarship that I bought these meat dishes back." ”

The old lady was overjoyed, "Fluttershy is so smart, as long as you study a little hard, you can do so well!" ”

Bai Mengdie put some green onions and ginger in the pot, then threw the pig's tongue into it to blanch the water, and took advantage of this kung fu to wash her hands and face, and the whole person was much cooler.

The old lady was so happy that she went around the house: "I have to send a message to your grandfather, so that he will be happy too!" With that, he went out happily.

Bai Mengdie went into the kitchen and saw that the water in which the pig's tongue was boiling was boiling, so she poured a little white wine into the pot and boiled it for another five or six minutes, then she sandwiched the pig's tongue and soaked it in cold water, then washed the pot and began to cook.

When boiling the pig's tongue just now, Bai Mengdie had already shredded the tenderloin and pork belly, cut it into slices, and washed it clean.

She poured a scoop of water into the pot, put a few slices of ginger and a little white wine, poured the sliced pork belly into it and blanched it, and waited for the water to boil and scoop it up.

Taking advantage of these few minutes, Bai Mengdie cut all the dried incense into triangles, and then scooped up the blanched pork belly.

In fact, it is also possible not to blanch, but Bai Mengdie is afraid that the old lady and the old man will not be good for their health if the oil is too big, and blanching the pork belly can remove some oil.

Bai Mengdie saw Chen Ziqian standing behind him, and said, "Don't stand, go to our vegetable field to see if there are any chili peppers, if there are no chili peppers, pick some sword beans and come back to fry the tenderloin." ”

Chen Ziqian took a vegetable basket and went out.

The snow leopard was originally going to go out with him, but after thinking about it, it was better to stay at home, so that he could smell the aroma of the meat when Bai Mengdie roasted meat.

After Bai Mengdie cooked the pork belly and fried it fragrantly, Chen Ziqian also came back with a basket containing one or two catties of chili peppers.

Bai Mengdie asked in surprise: "There are so many chili peppers in our house?" ”

Although the vegetables grow fast in summer, it has not been a week since the last time I picked the vegetables from the old lady's garden, so how can so many peppers grow again.

Chen Ziqian poured the chili peppers into the pot and scooped the water from the tank to wash the chili peppers: "This is not from our vegetable garden, it is the chili pepper I asked for from the aunt in the vegetable garden next door, and the aunt is very good and gave me so many chili peppers." ”

Bai Mengdie was speechless when she heard it, in the end, he was a noble son born with a golden spoon, he didn't understand any human feelings, could the chili pepper be for nothing, and the old lady had to return the favor of the family~

Chen Ziqian said again: "Bai Mengdie, do you want to make fried shredded tenderloin with sharp peppers." ”

"Well, you don't want to eat it." Bai Mengdie heard the disagreement in his tone.

Chen Ziqian started the coquettish Dafa: "I want to eat sweet and sour tenderloin, are you good at making sweet and sour tenderloin." ”

Bai Mengdie was simply defenseless against his coquettishness, and nodded in agreement.

While making sweet and sour tenderloin, Bai Mengdie thought in his heart, sweet and sour tenderloin, a classic traditional dish, is often seen in Zhejiang cuisine, Shandong cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine, and Cantonese cuisine, but it is not common in Chu cuisine, mainly because people in Hubei Province do not like to eat sweet and sour meat dishes.

I don't know if the old man will appreciate his face and taste a little after he does it, but Chen Ziqian, a little enemy, can't help it.

Bai Mengdie had just made sweet and sour tenderloin, Chen Ziqian immediately took chopsticks to taste it, and immediately smiled: "Sweet and sour, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, fragrant on the outside, and endless aftertaste, this is the taste!" Fluttershy, your sweet and sour tenderloin is still so delicious! ”

Bai Mengdie took a knife and a pig's tongue to the yard to scrape the white skin on the pig's tongue: "Look at what you said, it seems that you have eaten the sweet and sour tenderloin I made before." ”

Chen Ziqian knew that he was speechless, raised his eyebrows, continued to eat his sweet and sour tenderloin, and ate several bites in a row, before he put down his chopsticks with satisfaction.

The snow leopard kept hanging its red tongue and looked up at him eating, thinking that he was going to give himself a sweet and sour loin or two, but he never waited.

From then on, Chen Ziqian's eyes were particularly disdainful, as if he was a treacherous villain.

Chen Ziqian asked Bai Mengdie: "It's already half past twelve, why haven't all the grandparents come back?" ”

Bai Mengdie scraped off all the white skin on the pig's tongue, cut the root of the pig's tongue with a knife, and cleaned up the mucus inside, so that the pig's tongue could be cleaned.

Bai Mengdie guessed: "Grandma knows that it will take some time for me to make meat dishes, and she will definitely ask grandpa to work in the fields for a while longer, and they will not come back until my meal is almost ready." ”

Sure enough, as she guessed, when the stir-fried pork tongue with sharp peppers was put on the plate, all the people working in the fields came back.

Bai Mengdie was a little regretful and promised to make edamame tofu for Chen Ziqian to taste, but now he has no time.

But it's a long time coming, I didn't have a chance to let him taste it this time, and I will make it for him next time.

The old lady went into the kitchen and saw the plate of stir-fried pork tongue with sharp peppers, and asked, "Where did you get the sharp peppers, all the sharp peppers in our family were picked by your family last time, and the ones in the back haven't grown yet." ”

Bai Mengdie told her that Chen Ziqian asked for it from the aunt in the vegetable garden next door.

The old lady asked Chen Ziqian in detail about the appearance of the aunt, knew who it was, and nodded: "I'll go back to the town to buy a pound of fruit candy and return the favor."

Although this chili pepper is not worth much in our village, it doesn't matter if we ask the people in the village for some ourselves, but Chen Ziqian is a guest of our family, and it is different to ask for others. ”

Bai Mengdie thought to herself, in the future, she would have to tell Chen Ziqian not to let him ask for things from the people in the village casually.

As soon as Shi Lei came back, he saw Chen Ziqian, and a few traces of same-sex repulsive disgust flashed in his eyes.

Bai Mengdie walked to the hall with two dishes and asked him with concern: "Brother, I just finished the exam and went to work in the field, how did the exam go?" ”

Shi Lei replied sullenly: "Play normally." ”

Chen Ziqian made a basin of cold water and asked the old man to wash his hands and face.

The old man smiled happily and said, "How can you let you, a guest, give me a wash of water?" ”
