There were a few sharp shouts outside, and it sounded like a woman's voice, very harsh.

Qin Xiang couldn't help frowning, and turned his head to look at Lin Qingmiao a little unnaturally, because the shout just now was calling Lin Qingmiao.

It's just that when she turned her head to look, she found that Lin Qingmiao's expression was as usual, she drank tea slowly, and when she saw Qin Xiang staring at her, she smiled.

"This tea is made of chrysanthemums picked by me in the early spring, and they are dried and dried, which is the most heat-clearing and fire-free. I love this bite on weekdays, if you don't think it's good, I have other teas here. ”

Lin Qingmiao took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

There was a sharp scolding outside, obviously every sentence was scolding her, but she didn't seem to hear it.

Even Qin Xiang had to admire Lin Qingmiao's determination, she had just been scolded by Sister Liu in the morning, and she was very angry at that time.

But the unpleasantness of Sister Liu's scolding of her in the morning was less than one-tenth of those people outside at this time, and even she, an outsider, was very angry when she heard it, as if nothing had happened as a party concerned.

After the man outside scolded for a while, he didn't seem to be enough, and even began to bang on the door, which was not very strong.

After two hits in a row, he was knocked away, and then a woman walked in with two women.

The three of them didn't seem to expect that there were other people in the courtyard, and when they saw Qin Xiang and Tie Niu, they couldn't help but be stunned.

But this woman obviously knew Qin Xiang, and after seeing her, she snorted coldly and walked straight towards Lin Qingmiao.

"Lin, are you blind, don't pour me water!"

The woman pulled a stool and sat on it, scolding coldly.

"Mrs. Lin, I have two cups, there are no extra cups to pour water for you, if you have nothing to do, just get out!"

Lin Qingmiao had a smile on her face, she was already a little delicate, and now she looked like she was laughing with people, but what she said was really unkind.

"You little prostitute, how can you talk to Zheng?" Mrs. Lin shouted loudly, and reached out to hit Lin Qingmiao, but was stopped by Tie Niu.

"You...... Let go, what's the matter, you're her concubine, help her kill my son, you adulterers and adulteresses! ”

The two women she brought over wanted to come forward to help, but they were frightened back by Tie Niu's look.

watched her keep shouting, but there was no one around to watch the excitement.

It is not difficult to think that this person must often come here to make trouble, and the surrounding neighbors are already aware of this family's affairs, so they don't bother to pay attention to it at all.

"Mrs. Lin, do you think it's Lin Qingmiao's concubine when you see a man casually? You'd better not think like that, or you'll be beaten up by a grumpy man. Qin Xiang turned around and said to Mrs. Lin, who was still desperately trying to break free from the iron bull.

"Get out of the way, what's your business!"

Mrs. Lin glanced at Qin Xiang sideways, and raised her hand to give Qin Xiang a slap, but as soon as her hand was raised, she was once again grabbed by Tie Niu.

As soon as Tie Niu exerted a little force, Mrs. Lin shouted, and the whole person fell to the ground and screamed in pain.

At first, Qin Xiang thought that she was deliberately sprinkling, but soon realized that she was not sprinkling, but her arm was dislocated by the iron bull.

Qin Xiang almost laughed out loud, but she didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so she hurriedly walked over to see the situation.

"My arm is broken, you little prostitute is blackmailing me!" Mrs. Lin shouted at Qin Xiang, raised her foot and kicked her with her feet.

"Your arm hasn't broken yet, but if you keep tossing like this, it will definitely break."

Qin Xiang walked up to her, asked Tie Niu to come over and hold her legs, and carefully helped her connect her arms.

"Smack......

The moment she connected her arm, Mrs. Lin immediately raised her hand and hit Qin Xiang's face.

However, she didn't hit Qin Xiang's face this time, but hit her daughter's face.

Looking at her stunned look, Qin Xiang slowly raised his head and looked towards Tie Niu.

She said in her heart that it was so dangerous, if Tie Niu hadn't dragged Mrs. Lin's daughter who was standing next to her and watching the excitement just now, she would really be hit in the face this time.

"Okay, if you've made enough trouble, get out, my brother will come over later, so that he can find out that you are bothering me, you know the consequences." At this time, Lin Qingmiao, who had been silent, suddenly stood up, stared at Mrs. Lin impatiently and scolded.

Mrs. Lin's face was hideous, but she knew that there was an iron bull, and she couldn't bully Lin Qingmiao today.

"Little prostitute, don't be complacent, as long as you don't hand over the Zhuangzi left by my son, I will come to trouble you when I am free!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin stood up and wiped the tears on her face, shouted, and left in a hurry.

The two women beside her originally wanted to provoke Lin Qingmiao, but when they saw Qin Xiang and Tie Niu like this, they left unwillingly.

"It's not a way for you to let them make trouble like this, why are you still here?"

Qin Xiang felt a little strange, Lin Qingmiao looked at someone who had a lot of ideas, why did he continue to stay here to practice for others?

She could have left the village, or walked further, and when the time came, she would not be afraid that she would not be able to survive as long as she had the money in her hand.

"You also think that I have a Zhuangzi in my hand, and I can have no worries about food and clothing after leaving, right?" Lin Qingmiao laughed miserably and looked at Qin Xiang helplessly.

Qin Xiang shook her head, she had never had this kind of thought, seeing Lin Qingmiao's life so hard, she knew that Zhuangzi was a nonsense thing.

"It's nothing to do with Zhuangzi, I just don't think you need to work so hard." Qin Xiang shook his head and smiled bitterly, his mood was also affected a little, and he felt a lot lower than before.

"My brother and sister-in-law wanted me to move in with them, but I didn't want to trouble them, so I stayed here. There is nothing bad here, except that they make a little fuss. ”

Lin Qingmiao got up and put down the tea, and her tone was very gentle, so that Qin Xiang couldn't help but feel that this person was really the most Buddhist person she had ever seen since she came to ancient times.

"What does it smell like, it's very fragrant."

Qin Xiang didn't pay attention just now, and suddenly smelled a faint fragrance in the room, which was very similar to the smell of oil.

"I don't like to eat fatty meat, so I put it in a pot every time and boil it, and when the fat is boiled, it is crispy and raw, and I like to eat it." Lin Qingmiao said with a smile.

"However, there is always something greasy left after the fat is boiled, and when it is cold, it will turn white. You know, I don't expose the good things I have eaten and used on weekdays, and it is inevitable to be seen by someone with a heart. So I put them all in one jar. ”

Lin Qingmiao invited Qin Xiang to enter the house with her, and walked to a jar at the main entrance.

When the jar was opened, it was filled with snow-white lard.

Qin Xiang's eyes lit up when he saw the lard!

I didn't expect that in this era, someone else practiced lard, but obviously, Lin Qingmiao didn't know the use of this oil.

If it weren't for the inconvenience, she would even throw the oil away.

"This kind of fat boiled out is called oil."

Qin Xiang thought for a while and said: "It is very useful to me, you are really good, can you sell me a little, I will give you ten cents for a catty." ”

Qin Xiang was a little excited, the pork fat she fried herself before was not so good, and the fragrance was not so strong.

Although I don't know how Lin Qingmiao did it, the chicken fried with this lard must taste a little better than the oil squeezed out of her.

Moreover, if someone helps her make oil, it will also greatly improve her work efficiency.

"Do you really want to buy it?"

Lin Qingmiao felt a little surprised, she had tried to eat this kind of thing before, but it was really unpalatable, she simply saved enough of this thing in a jar, and then thought about burying it when no one was around, never thought that there were still people who wanted to buy it.

But now that Qin Xiang wants to collect it and give it back at such a high price, she is naturally willing to sell it.

"Naturally, there will be more in the future, but you must keep it for me!"

Qin Xiang nodded, secretly thinking in his heart that this was really an unexpected joy, if he didn't come today, he would definitely not be able to find their family's good oil.

"In that case, I'll sell these to you." Lin Qingmiao saw that Qin Xiang was not joking with her, so she nodded and said.

Qin Xiang immediately counted twenty copper plates and handed them to Lin Qingmiao, and at the same time specially instructed: "There will be lard in the future, as long as the quality can be guaranteed, I will definitely accept it all." But let's say okay, we can't let a third person know about this anymore. Don't talk about lard to anyone in the future. ”

Lin Qingmiao nodded, although she was a little puzzled by Qin Xiang's approach, but in this way, at least she could have an extra income, which was also a good thing.

The two chatted casually, and Qin Xiang asked Tie Niu to take the jar, left Lin Qingmiao's house, and rushed towards his house.

Tie Niu helped put the oil into the kitchen at home, wiped Han, and wanted to come over to say goodbye to Qin Xiang.

"It's so late, you better finish your meal and leave, anyway, it's not straight at this time."

When Qin Xiang heard that Tie Niu was leaving, he couldn't help but open his mouth to stay, he had been running around all day, and he must have been hungry for a long time.

"No need, it's terrible if outsiders see it, you don't look at that widow Lin, she is like a dead person who can pant for breath on weekdays, and she doesn't leave her yard at all."

After Qin Xiang heard this, he couldn't help but sigh, and then he took out some of the food, handed it to Tie Niu, and asked him to eat outside.

After eating a meal, the sky was completely dark, and Tie Niu got up to say goodbye.

Qin Xiang nodded, and after Tie Niu left, she immediately walked towards the kitchen.

She deliberately used the oil she bought from Lin Qingmiao's house today to try it to see what the fried chicken tasted like.

After it was done to cool a little, she couldn't wait to pick up a piece and eat it, and sure enough, she found that the fried chicken was even more crispy.

This oil is the right choice.

Early the next morning, she used the lard that Lin Qingmiao bought to make a lot of fried chicken, fried potatoes and fried sweet potatoes, and after loading them, she rushed to the county with two small balls.

Halfway through, they happened to meet a tightly wrapped woman, although they didn't see the face, but looking at the back, Qin Xiang was not difficult to recognize, this was the sister-in-law Liu next door to them.

I have always said that she was burned and disfigured, but I have never seen what the injuries have become.
