"Let's go, I'm going to water again today." Chu Xinyun handed the bucket over, but Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment.

"You don't want me to fetch water, do you?"

Chu Xinyun nodded: "Yes, Xiao Shu is injured, and I am the only one who can work at home, and now that you are here, then we will be together." ”

Xiao Qi looked at the barrel in his hand, and stopped talking with a face.

In the past few days, the sun has been abundant, and the moisture is also sufficient, so the growth of sweet potato seedlings is very gratifying, and Chu Xinyun took Xiao Qi with an unhappy face to stand on the ridge.

I have to say that the effect of composting is very obvious at the beginning, only a little more than a month, the sweet potato vines have been wrapped in the whole acre of fields, and the green leaves are gently swaying with the wind, full of vitality.

"I'll go fetch water, and you can get rid of some weeds here, but be careful not to cut off the sweet potato vines."

After Chu Xinyun finished explaining, he turned around and went to the stream not far away to fetch water, Xiao Qi stood for a while with a sickle and a very ugly face, and rolled up his sleeves and went down to the field.

The dignified Pavilion Master, who is actually weeding in the field at this moment, if it is passed out, it will definitely make people laugh and lose their big teeth.

That's right, this little guy named Xiao Qi is Li Xiuqi who came from the capital, and he just wanted to eat, drink and play in the Yunjian Restaurant, but he overheard Chu Xinyun needing to be guarded, so he pretended to be a guy and mixed it up on the spot.

In the first few days he admitted that he was happy, because the little lady's craftsmanship was really good, even though he had tasted food from many places, but the taste was not as good as here.

Obviously, she used the simplest ingredients, and Li Xiuqi couldn't figure it out for a while.

But now he is not happy at all, although his background is average, but at least he is worry-free, and then by chance embarked on a job such as an intelligence network, until today his hands have at least touched tens of millions of taels of silver and silver tickets, but now... Pulling weeds here!

"Tsk!" He squatted in the grass full of reluctance, and he knew that he would not come to get involved in this matter.

I thought it was just this day, but when he came back the next day, he was dumbfounded.

"Why do you have to go to the ground today, I'm here to protect you, not to farm!" Li Xiuqi hugged his arms and refused with righteous words.

Chu Xinyun said: "I haven't encountered any danger at present, if you are idle anyway, it is better to go to the ground with me, otherwise it will not be a waste of the monthly money given by the shopkeeper Xu." ”

"I ....." Li Xiuqi was dumbfounded by these words, and once again hated why he was meddling!

Today, she was still watering and pulling weeds in the field under the scorching sun, and she had rearranged a piece of land elsewhere, and it seemed that she had to plant something else.

Finally waiting for the sun to go down and return to the town, Li Xiuqi looked at his tanned and peeled arms, and wanted to cry without tears for a while, Chu Xinyun couldn't help but quip when he looked at his flushed face: "Why do you have such good skin as a guy who runs the hall, it seems that you haven't done heavy work." ”

He said a few vague perfunctory words, planning that he would not want to go to the ground again tomorrow no matter what.

As the sun set, the two returned to the town against the sunset, Chu Xinyun went to see Xiao Kill as soon as possible, and Li Xiuqi watched it very interestingly.

"Did you feel better today?" Chu Xinyun asked with concern, and when he saw the food with only a few chopsticks on the side, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Xiao Shu smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine, it's just that the weather is a little hot and I don't have much appetite." ”

"If you don't have an appetite, you have to eat some, otherwise how can your body be nutritious?"

Chu Xinyun persuaded hard, and when he heard him say that he didn't have much appetite, he said, "Then don't cook porridge, I'll make you a bowl of cold noodles." ”

As a necessity in the hot summer, cold skin and cold noodles are not seen in the market of Qingshui Town, maybe no one wants to eat it like this, but some preserved fruit ice bowls are the majority, and the price is relatively expensive, which is not something that ordinary people can consume.

Knead the flour with water, then pull it into thin noodles, knead it several times if you want the noodles to be strong, put the noodles in the cool well water to cool after cooking, add the secret seasoning and mix well, sprinkle some chopped green onions and you can eat.

Chu Xinyun likes to eat sweet, so she added some sugar to the sauce to make the strong noodles taste sweet and fresh, and the palatability is excellent.

"Whew! Whew!" Li Xiuqi sat in the courtyard eating with a bowl without an image, his lips were swollen and red from spicy, but he refused to stop.

Xiao Shu also liked cold noodles very much, and ate a bowl and a half, and Chu Xinyun finally relieved his heart when he saw this.

The sky gradually darkened, the scorching day passed, and people were finally willing to go out for a walk with the cool breeze through the hall.

Li Xiuqi held a dog's tail grass in his mouth and sat in the yard to enjoy the shade.

Looking at Chu Xinyun, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing here?"

Chu Xinyun said without looking back: "The little fool has a bad appetite these days, and I want to cook something different for him tomorrow." ”

After answering, I realized that something was wrong.

"It's so late, why haven't you gone back yet?"

"......." Li Xiuqi was stunned, as if he had to get up and leave as if he was playing a temper, but he didn't take a few steps and then came back and said, "I don't want to go to the ground tomorrow!"

Without waiting for her to answer, he ran away.

Chu Xinyun pouted and said, "I don't know where the shopkeeper Xu found this guy, he is too squeamish, except for being good-looking, he is just like a straw bag..."

Chu Xinyun has seen his behavior and behavior in the past few days, and he is actually very dissatisfied in his heart.

But thinking that this was recommended by the shopkeeper Xu for free, she could only hide her dissatisfaction in her heart.

If you make do with it, how can you retreat?

Maybe he felt the resentment in Li Xiuqi's heart, it rained before dawn the next day, and there was naturally no need to go to the ground on a rainy day, so Li Xiuqi was in a good mood all morning.

He escorted Chu Xinyun to the market to sell vegetables, and after coming back, he sat in the courtyard to enjoy the rain scene, and the dense raindrops dripped down from the eaves, which was a unique taste.

In the past, he must have tasted a cup of tea and ordered a piano tune.

But now I can only listen to the sound of rain in the dilapidated yard.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, and then set his eyes on Xiao Shu on the side.

Although his face was still a little pale, he was much better now than before.

Li Xiuqi looked at him with his chin propped up, he didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that this man looked a little familiar, but he didn't remember where he had seen it....

"Hey, what's your name?"

Xiao Shu turned a deaf ear, and seeing that he didn't move, Li Xiuqi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"I said, you have been with this little lady for so long, you can't take it now, right?" The corners of Li Xiuqi's mouth hooked up a touch of the theater: "If it were me, I would have eaten people to death a long time ago..."

Before the words fell, a sharp style of study suddenly attacked, Li Xiuqi subconsciously turned sideways to dodge, and flashed into the distance with the chair.

He straightened his shirt and sat upright and chuckled: "I'm just kidding, don't be so serious!"

Xiao Kill's face sank like water and said coldly: "If I let me hear you insult Xiao Yun like this again, don't blame me for being polite!"

Yu Yu continued to sit upright in his chair, as if he had just made a move.

Li Xiuqi pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "What I said was originally the truth...."

"Bang!"

"Oops!"

A flying stone directly broke the leg of the chair, and Li Xiuqi fell directly on his butt without paying attention.

Chu Xinyun, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the movement and came out to check, and saw the ugly Li Xiuqi getting up from the ground in embarrassment, and couldn't help but be curious: "What's the matter?"

The two said in unison: "It's okay!"

Chu Xinyun glanced at the two suspiciously, and continued to go back to the kitchen to cook.

In the days that followed, Chu Xinyun found that things at home would be inexplicably damaged, and asked the two people if they knew what was going on, but they all got unclear answers.

After learning the news of the failed assassination at this moment, Shopkeeper Chen made a big fire, but he also died down for a while.

Then he learned that there was another man next to Chu Xinyun, and he thought about it for a long time in the house and called for a blessing.

On this day, Chu Xinyun went to send sweet potatoes to the shopkeeper Xu as a reason, Li Xiuqi originally wanted to go with him but was rejected by her, and it was only a stick of incense to go from home to Yunjian Restaurant, and he would not delay his work if he went back quickly.

Li Xiuqi watched for several days and didn't see anything, so he let her go.

After successfully sending the sweet potatoes to the back kitchen, Chu Xinyun took the money and left, Yunjian Restaurant has been very busy recently, and it is estimated that it is a little difficult to see the shopkeeper Xu.

On the way back, Chu Xinyun was thinking about what to eat tonight while walking, and when he passed by the mouth of a dilapidated alley, he saw a beggar lying there, as if he was sick.

She was curious and walked up to ask about it, but when she got closer, she found that this person's body was stiff and his face was blue, and there was overflowing white foam at the corners of his mouth, and he was out of breath at all!

Chu Xinyun was so frightened that she took a few steps back, and before she could come back to her senses, several beggars in tattered clothes suddenly rushed out of the alley and surrounded her.

"Murder! Kill!"

The leading beggar immediately pointed at her and shouted, Chu Xinyun frowned: "What are you talking nonsense!" I just passed through here...."

But the beggar next to him shouted: "You killed it, I saw it!" That's you!"

With the shouts of the beggars, passers-by gathered one after another, and the leading beggar cried: "You vicious woman, I saw it just now, even if you killed the small city, how can you do it!"

Chu Xinyun hurriedly defended: "I didn't kill anyone!" I just passed by here and saw this person lying on the ground, I thought he was sick and came to take a look, only to find out that this person was dead!"

"You're still quibbling! Several of us saw it, and it was you who handed him food to eat, and Xiaocheng died after eating it!"

As he spoke, the man rushed up and broke the corpse's hand, which contained half of the uneaten pastry.

The leading beggar said to the pointer-by, "Where can we be beggars to eat such good cakes, and we are very happy to have a steamed bun to eat on weekdays." ”

Passers-by also said that they were reasonable, and this cake also needed five cents a piece, and it was not necessarily possible to buy it if there was no accumulation in hand.

Hearing his words, Chu Xinyun didn't understand anything, he was tricked again!

She forced herself to calm down, and she looked closely at the leading beggar who was speaking righteously, and suddenly felt that he was somewhat familiar.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed her, and she suddenly remembered that this person was not the person who made trouble at Shopkeeper Xu before!

I pretended to be poisoned before and wanted to cheat money!

She immediately pointed at the man's nose and scolded, "It's you again!" I was there when I made trouble in Yunjian Restaurant before, don't believe him, this person is a liar!"
