Chapter 388: Osmanthus Cake

The fragrance of osmanthus wafted throughout the kitchen, and the children sat in the courtyard with small benches, staring at the osmanthus cake that was placed on the small wooden table, waiting for it to become cold, and then watching Si Si use a kitchen knife stained with water to cut the osmanthus cake into neat squares.

"Okay, you can eat it." As soon as Si Si's words fell, Ji Xiang immediately couldn't wait to pick up a piece of osmanthus cake and stuff it into his mouth, his mouth was stuffed to the brim, and his cheeks bulged out like a squirrel.

"Good times." Jixiang said with some slurred words.

Several children did not wait any longer, and started one after another, grabbed the osmanthus cake, and stuffed it into their mouths.

"Slow down, slow down, there's a lot more, no one is robbing you, don't worry." Si Si scolded with a smile, then took a plate, filled it with some osmanthus cakes, and brought it to Aunt Zhao, the village chief and Lu Yan to eat, and received unanimous praise.

Aunt Zhao said while eating osmanthus cake, as if she didn't understand: "It's really strange, Si Si makes these strange little pastries so delicious, but how to cook can't do it well!" ”

"Haha, that's probably because of talent." Si Si said embarrassedly.

There are still several jars of osmanthus left, all made into osmanthus cakes, I don't know how to eat until the Year of the Monkey Ma Yue, and this thing is good to eat once or twice, if you eat too much, it will be greasy, Si Si simply made the remaining osmanthus cakes into sugar stuffed osmanthus and saved them.

Sugar osmanthus can be put for a long time, and when the Chinese New Year is next year, you can take it out and add peanuts and sesame seeds, and it is also delicious to make sugar crisp.

Si Si and Lu Yan stayed in the village for several days this time, taking a few children up the mountain to hunt and have a picnic, and they were so happy.

The Niu family, who sold all the three sisters, seemed to have forgotten about this trip, and they didn't come to the door, which made Sisi feel a lot more relieved.

I'm not afraid that they will have a high amount of money, but I'm afraid that they will come to bargain later, and it will be troublesome if they want to get more money.

While playing with these children, Sisi did not forget the school exam Jixiang and Zhou Bowen's homework, how is it now? I took a book at random, drew a few questions, and saw that both children could answer them, so I asked them carefully again, asking them if they were confident in next year's children's exam.

"Mother, you can rest assured!" Jixiang patted his little chest and said: "Mr. said that I am smart, I will definitely pass the children's examination next year, and I will come back to earn a life for you when the time comes!" ”

"I don't think there's a problem either." Zhou Bowen also said on the side.

Seeing that these two children were so confident in themselves, Si Si was also a lot more relieved, gave the two of them some pocket money, and told them to study hard, so he took the three sisters of the Niu family and went back to the town with Lu Yan.

The names of the three sisters of the Niu family are easy to remember, but they are still a little too cheesy, and Si Si gave the three of them new names after asking for their consent.

From large to small, they are Niu Qingyun, Niu Xiahe, and Niu Qiuxue.

Then he took the three of them to Qi Zhaodi's side.

"Why do you bring your own people to me every time? Am I here to help you train your men? Qi Zhaodi looked at her sister a little helplessly, and brought three more people over for herself.

"Last time, I helped you solve the matter of the women of the Zhou family, why do you have to make an inch?"

"This, don't you think that eldest sister, you are particularly good at training people?" Si Si said with a flattering smile: "I'm so arrogant, I can't take care of myself, I'm afraid I can't take care of the three of them, I just want the eldest sister you are the best at training, put the three of them here, I can rest assured!" ”

Si Si made it clear to Qi Zhaodi about the three sisters of the Niu family, and Qi Zhaodi, who has always been cold-hearted and cold-hearted, was also a little embarrassed. Good Mood Literature Network

"Okay, okay, just put people on my side, then if you are short of people over there in the future, I will transfer the three of them back." Qi Zhaodi finally accepted the matter.

"Thank you, eldest sister, I know that eldest sister is the best."

Si Siren, who had already expected the result, smiled and thanked his eldest sister.

Qi Zhaodi asked the three girls to take them down, and then her face changed, and she looked at Si Si with a little solemnity.

"The people of the Zhou family are moving again."

"Huh?"

Zhou Zimo knew that it was Si Si who took away the two fathers and daughters of the Zhou family, but there was no evidence at hand, so he couldn't do it in his heart, so he could only spread this anger to the business, and then began to violently target the shops that Si Si and Qi Zhaodi cooperated.

Exhausted all means to grab business.

Cutting prices and shouting, buy one get one free, do everything, even if you lose money, you have to grab business, which makes Qi Zhaodi a little frightened.

"If they go on like this, they can afford it, and we may have some trouble on our side." Qi Zhaodi was a little distressed about this matter.

The Zhou family has a big business, and it is nothing to lose some money, although it is said that her Qi family is not bad for this money, but after all, she is still very aggrieved when she encounters this kind of thing.

"It's almost time for the harvest!"

Si Si came out with this sentence out of nowhere, "I don't know why, it seems to have rarely rained since this summer, and I feel that it has been a lot drier recently." ”

"It seems that it hasn't rained for almost two months, but fortunately we still have a river over there, and the water is abundant, and I'm afraid that even watering is a problem elsewhere." Qi Zhaodi didn't understand what Si Si meant, but just said.

Si Si seemed to have thought of something, and his face was a little solemn, "Eldest sister, if the grain can't be sold during this period, then don't sell it first, stock it up first, I have a hunch that there may be a period of hard time in the future." ”

Although he said this, Si Si himself was a little unsure, and added: "Anyway, don't rush to sell food first, I will observe for a few more days before I can make a conclusion." ”

"Oh, got it."

Although Qi Zhaodi didn't understand why, she also nodded when she saw that her little sister rarely showed such a serious expression.

It hasn't rained for two months, and it's harvest season again, so I'm afraid the harvest will not be good this time!

Si Si secretly thought in his heart that if it didn't rain all the time, I was afraid that there would be a drought, and when the weather was hot, there would be more insects, and if there was another locust plague at that time......

That's when things really get bigger.

When Si Si left, he hadn't forgotten to give Qi Zhaodi the osmanthus cake he had made with him.

"Eldest sister, I made it myself, you go back and taste it first, it should taste good." After Si Si gave her the things, he beckoned, "I'll go back first!" ”
