Chapter 232: Preparing a Gift

Because tomorrow morning, they have to get up early to cut down the banana tree, and after eating and drinking, everyone in the Shi family will also prepare to go back to their rooms to rest.

Qing Dai thought of agreeing to Mr. Zhuang's fan, and hurriedly called Shi Zile, who was about to leave.

"Third aunt, can I stay in your house tonight? Can you take Brother Yun'er to our house for another night? ”

"Yes." Shi Zile didn't think about it, so he nodded first.

Then he looked at her with a puzzled face and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Qingdai tonight?" ”

Qing Dai nodded and explained, "I promised to paint a few more fans for Mr. Zhuang tonight."

"If you have an oil lamp in my room, it will affect Sister Miao Miao and Ah Huan to sleep."

In fact, she now uses her divine sense, and she can draw without an oil lamp.

But in the same room with Miao Miao, there is always something to make a noise.

Besides, if you let Miao Miao and them see her painting in the dark, it won't scare them to death!

After thinking about it, she changed rooms with Shi Zile, and it was most appropriate for her to go to Shi Zikang's study by herself.

I just heard that Qingdai was going to stay up late to paint tonight, and Zhao Guilan and Yun Rong on the side were full of disapproval.

"Why do you have to paint so late, can't you paint later?"

"It's just that I'm tired all day today, and I have to get up early tomorrow to go to town, so let's rest early."

"It's okay, godmother, grandma, I'll draw for a while, out of the way."

Qing Dai smiled: "The fan noodles I took before were sold out early." We're not going to town tomorrow.

"I'll rush out a few fans tonight, and I will be sent by him tomorrow, it's all silver."

"Silver is as important as your eyes." Yun Rong couldn't help but count when he heard this: "Qing Dai, you can't stop taking care of your body just because you want to make money." ”

"Yes." Shi Zile was also busy saying: "It's the most wasteful eye to light up the lamp and read a book at night, and it's the same for painting." ”

Zhao Guilan suddenly felt distressed when she heard this: "Qingdai, you have done enough, and you are good enough."

"Our family has no shortage of food now, you don't have to be in such a hurry to earn silver."

"Yes, Qingdai. Or don't paint at night......"

"Grandma, third aunt, godmother, you think too seriously about things.

"I'm not working every night, this is the first time I've painted at night.

"Besides, I told Mr. Zhuang that I can't lose my trust in others."

Hearing that she had told Mr. Zhuang that she had agreed, the three of them didn't say anything.

Seeing that she was leaving, Zhao Guilan couldn't help but admonish: "You remember to light two more oil lamps at night."

"Next time, don't take on such a rush job, it hurts your eyes to paint this night......"

Qingdai naturally wouldn't say that she was already 'blind', and it didn't matter if she hurt her eyes or not.

Seeing the nervous and distressed appearance of a few people, I can only guarantee this time, and I will only paint for a while tonight and go to sleep.

…………………

Early the next morning, before dawn, the whole Shi family had already gotten up.

Knowing that Qingdai stayed up late to paint last night, everyone also tacitly relaxed their hands and feet, trying not to wake her up.

Zhao Guilan, Qi Juan and Yun Rong were busy with breakfast in the kitchen.

Shi Zijian whispered to a few people, and then went out with Shi Zhongyi with Shi Qingyang in the dark.

For a long time, the Shi family's entry into the mountains to cut down banana trees was carried out without telling the rest of the village.

Now they have agreed with Dingfeng Tower, and they will sell this plantain core to Dingfeng Tower in the future, so they can't let others know about this matter.

The so-called scarcity is expensive, and the fact that the banana core can cook is currently known only to Dingfenglou and their Shi family. The end of the world

They don't want others to know about the business of robbing them of plantain cores, and Dingfeng Lou naturally doesn't want others to know what this raw material is.

There are so many banana trees in this mountain, and no one will notice them if they occasionally cut down a few before.

But in the future, it will not be as simple as a few of the ingredients they want to provide to Dingfeng Tower.

If the people in the village were to see them going into the mountains all day long and cutting down so many banana trees, they would definitely be suspicious.

When the time comes, if the matter of the banana core is exposed, everyone in the village will follow suit.

Not to mention that the plantain core has become worthless, if other restaurants will also launch similar dishes.

Shopkeeper Wu took such good care of their family, and they naturally didn't want to affect the business of Dingfeng Building.

Therefore, this matter can naturally be concealed day by day.

In this regard, they had already discussed it last night, and in the future, they had to go deep to cut the plantain core, next to the one inside.

Therefore, today they not only brought knives for cutting trees and oil lamps, but also prepared a medicine bag specially prepared by Shi Zikang to prevent snakes and insects.

Time passed in a flash, and seeing that breakfast was about to be ready, Shi Zijian and the others had not come back.

Qi Juan and Yun Rong discussed it for a while, and decided to take Ah Huan and Miaomiao into the mountain.

"Into the mountains?" Zhao Guilan was surprised: "Zijian, they go to the mountains they usually go to.

"Maybe it's on its way back, you don't have to ......"

"Mother, we didn't go into the mountains to find them to come back for dinner."

"That's?"

"We want to take Ah Huan and them to the mountains to pick some fruits."

"Fruit picking?" Zhao Guilan was even more puzzled when she heard this.

I can't pick this fruit at any time, so I have to go and join in the fun today.

Seeing that her face was full of disapproval, Qi Juan hurriedly explained: "Mother, that's the case.

"Isn't Shopkeeper Wu going to invite our family to dinner today, we can't go empty-handed.

"But if we want to prepare a gift for him, we don't know what Shopkeeper Wu likes.

"Besides, according to our family's conditions, we can't afford too good things.

"So I discussed it with Yun Niang, and I thought it would be better to pick some fresh fruits from the mountains and bring them to the shopkeeper Wu to taste.

"It's not worth much, but it's also our intention."

"That's true, but there's no delicious fruit in this mountain." Zhao Guilan sighed helplessly.

Yun Rong smiled when he heard this: "Mother, have you forgotten the peach that Qingdai and the others picked back from the mountain before."

"I think the peaches are pretty good, they look big, they taste good, sweet and sour."

"That's really good. But can you still have it now, you have already been picked. Zhao Guilan said worriedly.

Ah Huan said that when they went to the mountains to look for wild vegetables two days ago, they saw other peach trees.

In the mountain where Zijian and the others went, it was not a small head.

"Okay, then you should be careful, and come back early after picking." Zhao Guilan said: "If it's gone, forget it."

"I think the wild olives we soaked before are also good, I soaked a new jar according to the method given by Qingdai, it is very delicious.

"Didn't Qingdai also say that it was good for the body, if it didn't work, let's take that one."

"Okay, then mother, we'll go."

"Okay, it's still dark outside, be careful yourself......"

"Don't worry, mother."
