Chapter 343: He's My Man (Second Watch)

"What do you say?" Xia Qiqi asked.

"It's been the end of the month lately, you forgot? Especially Ming'er, the workers on the dock only work for half a day, and by noon, everyone will have a holiday!

At this time, aren't there quite a few workers? These people, tired all morning, must have a good meal! If you go around again, if you go here, won't your business rush up all at once? Su Cui Niang said.

Her words reminded Xia Qiqi.

When she used to sell button meatloaf here, it was also at the end of the month, and the business was very good.

Moreover, at the end of the month, basically those foremen were paid.

No matter how stingy a person is, he will come out to eat something good and drink a pot of soju.

"Cui Niang, thank you, I know what to do!" Xia Qiqi Dao.

After speaking, she looked at Xia Duofu and Xia Duogui and Lu Jiu.

"Dad, sixth uncle, you can help me buy flour now, at least fifty catties! If you can, go to the market and see if there is any coriander, and get me some chili peppers and oil! Xia Qiqi said.

"As for Ah Jiu, do you want to be with my father and them, or with me?"

Lu Jiu's gaze fell on Xia Qiqi, and he naturally followed Xia Qiqi.

"Cheng, then you can help me!"

Xia Qiqi wants to stew beef bone soup, and it will be stewed from now on.

Simmer for at least two hours.

But now in a hurry, she can also stew for an hour, at that time, the workers just got off work, and the dock is the most lively time.

"Qiqi, will I make buns now?" Su Cuiniang asked.

"No, you help me cook meat, cook beef!" Xia Qiqi Dao.

For the stuffing of meat buns, Xia Qiqi chose beef stuffing.

There are no green peppers this season, so I make do with chili oil, and as for coriander, I don't think there is any, but if there is, it is not necessarily.

In short, everything is hopeful, try to make the best taste, only in this way, can you make money!

Xia Qiqi began to make beef bone soup, two large iron pots were placed on the stove, and firewood was constantly stuffed underneath.

When the beef bones were taken out, they were washed, but Xia Qiqi washed them again.

Lu Jiu helped carry water throughout the whole process, and on the dock, it was not easy to get water, so he had to walk half a street and go to a small well to fetch water.

Lu Jiu helped carry the water one by one, and he didn't take a breath.

Su Cuiniang was cooking beef according to what Xia Qiqi said.

When Xia Qiqi was not busy, she came up.

"Qiqi, didn't I say, your cousin is really diligent, has he found a girl he likes? Actually, there are nice girls on the other side of my house! ”

Su Cuiniang looked warm-hearted.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to give Lu Jiu a blind date.

There's no way, Lu Jiu is really good-looking, and he works hard.

I did so much work, and I didn't stop for half a breath.

I also ran to ask Qiqi from time to time, whether I was tired or not.

"Qiqi, didn't you say before that your cousin hurt his throat and asked for money for treatment? Now it seems to be good, I just saw him talking to you, although there are fewer words, but many women like to talk less, really! ”

Xia Qiqi originally didn't want to speak, but seeing Su Cuiniang's unrelenting look, she was talking about Lu Jiu's lifelong event.

She said nonchalantly, "There's no need to find him a daughter-in-law!" ”

"Why? Your cousin's conditions are not bad, you can't be a bachelor for the rest of your life, right? Our ...... family."

Xia Qiqi raised his head and said to Su Cuiniang: "Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields, he is so good, I am ready to keep it for myself!" ”

Su Cuiniang: "......"

"What, isn't he your cousin?" Su Cuiniang looked confused.

"Isn't it normal for a cousin to marry a cousin?"

Besides, Lu Jiu is not her cousin at all, a relative who can't be beaten by eight poles.

"Huh...... That's right! Su Cuiniang looked embarrassed.

I felt like I had too much to do.

"Cui Niang, don't be angry! I'm not kidding you, that's what I thought! Anyway, the Daning Dynasty allowed his cousin to marry his cousin! Well, I'm familiar with him, and he also saved a lot of money for the bride price! Xia Qiqi said.

As soon as her words fell, Su Cuiniang instantly spoke excitedly, "I can't do without the bride price!" ”

"Qiqi, listen to me, you must not want a bride price! I...... I just didn't want a bride price at the beginning, but now my mother-in-law calls it a bargain! Su Cui Niang said.

Since Xia Qiqi is gone, Su Cuiniang's life is indeed not easy.

One person looked at the stall and didn't say anything, and all the money he earned was handed over to his mother-in-law.

But the mother-in-law still didn't give her a good face.

She is still wondering if she confiscated the man's bride price money at the beginning, so her mother-in-law didn't value herself.

Xia Qiqi looked at Su Cuiniang's face and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "You have ...... on your face"

"The man hit!" Su Cui Niang said.

"Why? Aren't you in a good relationship?"

Xia Qiqi still remembers how proud Su Cuiniang was when she said that her stove was made for her by a man.

It stands to reason that her relationship with her man should be very good.

"It's nothing, it's just that I had a conflict with him and hurt his mother, but in fact, it didn't hurt anything, so I pushed it, and he saw it, thinking that I hit his mother, so he did it!" Su Cui Niang said.

When it comes to men, the expression on her face is sad.

It can be seen that she still cares about her man.

It's just that in Xia Qiqi's opinion, if a man does something to his daughter-in-law, it's not a good thing!

"Cui Niang, I don't know how to comfort you, but I know that when a woman has money in hand, she won't be looked down upon!

You eat and drink, you earn it yourself, not your man, not your mother-in-law, look at them, do you dare to be unkind to you! Xia Qiqi said.

Su Cuiniang nodded heavily.

"That's what I thought too! After this month, I won't pay my mother-in-law! She said.

Xia Qiqi was stunned for a moment, "Why don't you pay her now?" ”

Su Cuiniang shook her head, "Not now!" My man Dacheng is still angry, if I say I don't pay at this time, he will definitely be angry! ”

Xia Qiqi listened to Su Cuiniang's words, and swallowed all the words that were originally full of words.

Su Cuiniang still cares about her man.

The man had beaten her, and she wasn't angry at all, still thinking about his feelings.

Then, the chance for her to live a good life is probably not great!

"There's a lot of work, I'll do it first!" Xia Qiqi Dao.

With that, she began to skim off the foam from the bone broth with a spoon.

Su Cuiniang also began to work hard.

Earn five days a day's wages, and if she gets it back, Dacheng shouldn't be angry.

……

……

After a while, Xia Duofu and Xia Duogui returned, carrying a bag of flour.

Xia Qiqi asked for dry spicy seeds and oil, as well as coriander, and they all came.

"Qiqi, what can we do?"
