Chapter 94: Tofu
Chaolu drove the carriage home slowly, and met many people along the way who were going for Gu Yan. She knew in her heart that no matter what Gu Yan wanted to do this time, as long as the result was good for the villagers, she would stand up for this scattered wealth...... The image of a good man, his status as an outsider in the village will definitely be significantly improved, and there will be people who have received his favor to defend him when he says bad things, and he doesn't even have to say anything more, and he doesn't have to do anything.
Chaolu sighed in her heart, where is she like her, she still needs to fight with others and quarrel with others in order to get back her share of justice. She sighed in her heart, it's good to be rich.
Chaolu parked the carriage at the door of the house, Li Youqing picked up the bag of peppercorns and went to the door Li drill, Chaoyang also picked up the bag of salt that had leaked most of it, Chaolu led the horse and followed them.
Suddenly, Chaoyang paused, turned his head to look at her, the corners of his eyes drooped, different from the usual heartless, his eyes were foggy, the corners of his mouth went down, and asked, "Sister, what is a fool?" ”
Facing Chaoyang's confused and aggrieved eyes, Chaolu felt as if her heart had been crushed with a sharp knife for a moment, and the pain spread to her internal organs, and finally cooled the soles of her feet, Chaolu opened her mouth, her throat was dry for a long time, and she obviously wanted to say something, but it was like someone choking her neck, and she couldn't say a word.
How is she going to explain to Chaoyang. For other people's bad words, but his family has never felt that way. Don't take other people's words to heart?
"You are the best treasure." In the end, Chaolu slowly spit out this sentence, "Just trust me." ”
Although Chaoyang only has the mind of a five-year-old, he is not completely ignorant, time has not given him the trouble of growing up, but has given him pure kindness, he can distinguish between good and bad, and he will feel lost in malice.
Chaolu is powerless to control the good and bad of others, but the heart that wants to cure Chaoyang is even hotter.
Chaoyang nodded, "I believe." ”
Chaolu smiled, "Then don't ask your father and mother like this." She was afraid that Liu Qing and Li Youqing would be sad, and their husband and wife, from beginning to end, took care of Chaoyang as a five-year-old child, and would not give him strange looks, but would take care of his emotions.
Chaoyang continued to nod, and the grievances were swept away, leaving only a heartless smile.
Chaolu tied the horse, fed it some forage to eat, touched its head as if soothingly, and then went to the kitchen to clean his hands, and saw a piece of tofu on the water tank, the texture looked very delicate, and there was a crystal clear feeling.
Liu Qing had already prepared a meal and waited for them to come back, and when she saw Chaolu on the table, she handed her a pair of chopsticks.
"It's been a hard day." Liu Qing looked at the father and daughter with gentle eyes, and saw that Chaoyang still liked to gobble up when eating, and said in a soft voice: "Slow down, eat carefully, don't choke." ”
Chaolu took a bite of rice, "Mother, who sent the tofu from the kitchen?" ”
"It's the swallow, she sent it." Liu Qing scooped a bowl of tofu soup for her, "Come on, try it, you used to like her tofu the most." ”
Chaolu went up the mountain to take the soup bowl, took a sip, smashed it twice, the taste was really good, she sandwiched a piece of tofu and sent it to her mouth, the entrance was soft, and it felt like it was going to melt, and for a while she couldn't tell whether Liu Qing's cooking skills were too high or the level of making this tofu was not ordinary.
Chao Lu was sighing with emotion, when he heard Liu Qing ask in wonder, "Isn't your relationship with Yanzi very good?" Why haven't I seen you talking lately? ”
"Ahem!" Chaolu put down the bowl, "Huh? ”
Swallow? What swallows? Chaolu felt a headache, and searched through his memory, only to get a few useful clues, and suddenly realized, "Du Dongyan, haven't I been very busy lately?" I may just forget about it. ”
"That kid is very good, he is hardworking and capable, I just gave her a mouthful of tofu and she sent it to me directly." Liu Qing's eyebrows were full of praise for Du Dongyan, "This Du family has been making tofu for many years, and this swallow is also famous for its hard work and ability...... If it weren't for the heavy burden on the swallow, I'm afraid there would be many people who came to the door in advance. ”
Liu Qing said with great interest, "If it weren't for her today, then Liu Ping would ......"
Chaolu put down the bowl, and when she heard Liu Ping's words, her face sank, "Then Liu Ping is here again?" ”
Unexpectedly, Liu Ping's family still didn't change their hearts, Liu Qing had only been at home for a day, and before he could sit hot, people dared to come over again!
Liu Qing sneered: "It's just to borrow something, this is separated by a wall, and there is that layer of blood relationship in the ......."
Li Youqing, who has not spoken, said: "You don't have to worry about this, just come and fight, we have already separated." At the beginning, he was so kind to our family, and we didn't do anything, so we were already right for this diligence, and there was nothing left. ”
Chaolu hates iron and steel, Liu Qing most of the time, it's not that he won't resist, but he feels that it doesn't matter if he doesn't resist, this kind of psychology is okay for good people, and for the thick-skinned family, it is the object of bullying.
"Mother, I'm worried that you'll be bullied, those people like to kick their noses and face the most, so we can't be soft. We have all eaten the previous lessons, and we can't help but have a good heart! ”
"Alright, alright, I remember, don't worry. You father and daughter, now you will join forces to teach me a lesson! ”
When Chaolu saw her like that, she couldn't rest assured, and she wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Liu Qing.
"Let me go to the shop with you tomorrow. The family has nothing to do all day long, and they are bored. Aren't you worried that I'm being bullied at home? Then let me go with you. ”
Chaolu: "......" how do you feel that her mother didn't accidentally say something just now. I'm waiting for them right here.
Their fields were rented out when they first opened shops in the town, and there were some embroidery samples left at home, but it was really boring to leave Liu Qing alone at home. They didn't refuse Liu Qing's request, they just hoped that Liu Qing could rest more at first, and if she had to go, there would be no problem.
"Okay." Chao Lu nodded, Li Youqing didn't have any opinion, Chaoyang was drinking soup with his head down, and he raised his head and smiled brightly when he looked at him.
After the family finished dinner, Chaolu thought about Du Dongyan, although her former friend was not hers, she couldn't act too strange, so that she didn't attract suspicion and made people think that she was too forgetful.
Chaolu thought about it for a while, and decided to go see her friend. She wrapped half a catty of meat in dried lotus leaves, and followed the route in her memory all the way to Du Dongyan's house.
She is a good friend of Chaolu, a good hand at work, the family is selling tofu in the village, it is also a time-honored brand, Du Dongyan has a pair of good skills, but unfortunately her parents died early, she usually depends on the help of her uncle and aunt's family, and usually has to support her sick grandmother alone, and her life is also hard, compared with the days of Chaolu before, it is also half a catty. However, Li Chaolu still has something to rely on, and what she can really rely on is herself.
No matter what kind of environment you live in, you can live a clean and proper life, never give up easily, self-esteem and self-love, for such a person, Chaolu has always looked up to him. Chaolu slowly knocked on the door of the Du family, and she wanted to see this Du Dongyan more and more.
