Chapter 26 Housework
It has been a while since Zheng Chunniang got married, and Sun Shao's breakfast is still white rice porridge.
While eating, Qishi suddenly put down the rice bowl, and the bottom of the pottery bowl and the rice table made a crisp sound. Sun Shao glanced at Qi Shi, still drinking porridge slowly.
"Childe, Chun Niang is not at home now, and the chores at home are handled by Xiao Suo, but I really can't do this laundry and cooking."
Sun Shao put down the bowl, picked up a glass of water, and said, "Ah Shi, you are doing a good job, just keep doing it." If you're tired, you can do less. ”
As soon as she said this, Qi Shi's face turned red, and she said, "But in the past three days, I have broken five bowls and washed two pieces of clothing. ”
Except for the clay bowl used to hold cat food, the bowls at home have been changed again. The sleeves of the clothes Sun Shao is wearing today are crooked and sewn with needles and threads, which is the result of too much force and tearing when Qishi washed his clothes yesterday.
Sun Shao smiled: "It's okay, now that I have money at home, it doesn't matter how many bowls I have." If my clothes are torn, I'll wear them at home. ”
"But ......," Qishi hesitated, "I can't burn the vegetables all the time, even the stove has been burned twice." ”
"Hmm...... It's okay, it's cooked anyway. ”
Qi Shi thought about the black dishes he cooked, and he was really embarrassed to let Sun Shao continue to eat. This toxins that have accumulated over time, don't make Sun Shao sick......
"Childe, let's hire a cook. Although it is definitely not as careful as Chunniang, at least it can make Childe eat normal meals. And when Xiao Suo is still growing his body, he can't let him go hungry too. ”
Sun Shao thought for a while, nodded and said, "This is indeed a thing, but even if there is a cook, breakfast still has to be made by Ah Shi." ”
Qishi said with a dark face: "I get up so early, my head is so dizzy." There's no way to think about things properly. ”
"That's right, Ashi. Do you have any plans for tomorrow? ”
"Not for the time being, Hua Butterfly is still hiding outside, I'll go see how they practice."
"Okay, it's time to give them a name. Do you have any ideas? ”
"I've thought about this question, since the son lives in Qingyun Lane, it's better to call them Qingyun Bing."
Sun Shao stood up and said cautiously: "Okay, come with me to Lu Qian's mansion tomorrow." My sister will probably arrive tomorrow afternoon, accompanied by a little aunt. ”
This situation was not known to Qi Shi before, and after the foot trainer left, her intelligence gathering relied on Butterfly. But obviously, Hua Die did not do as well as the step trainer, and missed such important information.
"This matter was written by the lord to Lu Qian and asked Lu Qian to arrange it. I want my sister to meet Ah Shi......"
See Sun Shao's sister? Qishi was a little confused, but seeing Sun Shaocheng's frightened expression, he still promised him.
"Okay, Childe. So I'm going to look for a cook in the dental market today? ”
"I'm also going to the army, and I heard Ding Feng say that the official resignation is coming down."
Usually after breakfast, Qi Shi and Sun Shao go to their own business. Sun Shao mostly went to the army or the county government, and took time to train the young men in Shanyue.
And Qishi usually shuttles through the bazaar, liaising with the fine craftsmen arranged by Huanglong in Jian'an County.
For example, this tooth market is a place where people are traded, and it is also a place where various forces are intertwined. Qishi can't fully grasp everyone's background, and there are too many eyes and ears to watch out for, so she avoids being near the tooth market on weekdays.
There is a fair and honest reason today, she has to come, and she also wants to connect the details in the tooth market.
"This girl, do you want to buy anyone?"
As soon as Qi Shi entered the street corner of the tooth market, someone introduced her attentively.
"I need a cook, I have to be healthy, I can't be too old, and I need to be able to understand the northern dialect." She's just a pretext, how can a person like this who spends all day in the house find one from the market casually.
She planned to find someone on Zhi Shaochen's side, but it was not convenient to explain it to Sun Shao. She knew Zheng Chunniang's status in Sun Shao's heart too well, and she rashly installed a "person of her own", she was afraid that Sun Shao would be uncomfortable.
After several selections, Qi Shi expressed her dissatisfaction, and finally she came to a stall with a person's teeth.
This man looked shrewd, and when he saw Qishi coming, he said, "What is the girl's business?" ”
Qishi said the request again, and added: "It's best to understand Xuzhou dialect and cook Xuzhou rice." ”
"Oh? Is that going to be a northern chef? ”
"No, people want Jiangdong people."
After the secret words, Ren Yazi led Qishi into the backrooms and said respectfully: "Ah Shi, long time no see." ”
"Together, you've been here for half a year, have you gained anything?"
Zhang Yitong showed a sinister smile and said, "It's human trafficking all day long, and I have figured out the situation of the Jiangdong Hao clan in Jian'an County." ”
"Very well, there's something you need to look up. Tomorrow afternoon, Sun Shao's sister Sun Xiu will arrive in Jian'an County, what is her purpose here, why she is going to Lu Qian's mansion, and write to me tonight. ”
"Understood. Ah Shi has no one around to protect him now, should I arrange it? ”
"No, I'm prepared. By the way, if you pay attention to one more person, you were selected to come here with me, and then left, Mengrong. ”
Zhang Tong's eyes flashed, and he said viciously: "Is she in your way?" Do you want me to get rid of her? ”
Qi Shi smiled: "No, I want to know what she is doing." She alone can't pose a threat to me. ”
I bought some vegetables at the market, went to the Nanyang grocery store to leave a message for Zhi Shaochen, and Qishi returned home with a small bamboo basket on his back.
As soon as she entered the door with her front feet, she heard movement behind her. As soon as she turned around, she was stunned.
I saw a person standing at the door, none other than Mengrong.
Mengrong was still wearing the clothes she had left that day, looking haggard, and when she saw Qishi, her face was ashamed.
"Ashi ...... Is Childe at home? ”
Qi Shiyi raised his eyebrows and said, "No, is there something wrong?" ”
"Well, Childe is not at home, so I'll wait for him here." Meng Rong bowed and stood in place, planning not to leave.
"You have something to say, don't be vague."
Kiyo noticed something unusual, something she had been exposed to since she was a child, a smell called intrigue.
"Alas, Ah Shi, I regret leaving Childe. My uncle and aunt talked to me all day long, and they wanted to marry me to an old man. I really can't stay any longer, I want to beg my son, I want him to take me in again. Ah Shi, you won't stop it, will you? ”
Seeing the pitiful feeling of Dream Melting, Qi Shi sneered in his heart. Thinking of Mengrong's sneaky behavior that day, she was sure that Mengrong's behavior must have ghosts.
Okay, if you're willing to come to the door, then come on. If you want to play tricks, you will kill yourself.
Qi Shi showed a bright smile and said, "No, of course not." ”
