Chapter 103 Raising chickens in the front yard and planting vegetables later
Besides, Hua Manxi was holding the bowl, and when he found Li Qiuqiu's room, he pushed the door directly and entered, only to see Li Qiuqiu lying on the dresser, with an indignant and unwilling face.
"What's wrong with you? Didn't you say that if you look so good, you can also be a concubine? Hua Manxi glanced at her disapprerovingly, and continued to eat the fish balls in the bowl, this fish ball is simply extraordinary, Q elastic and tender, sticky with spicy soup, it's not too cool.
"You, how can you be such a master!" Li Qiuqiu pouted and said, "I'm a serious girl, how can I be in a hurry to be a concubine for others?" Besides, my dad is still counting on me to recruit money. β
"Do you still like him? If you don't like it, pack your clothes, and I'll send you back. Hua Manxi sandwiched a fried tofu, and when he bit into it, the soup in the fried tofu immediately splashed all over his mouth, and it was really numb, spicy and hot.
"I don't like him anymore, but I don't want to go home either!" Li Qiuqiu looked at Hua Manxi in shock, "Didn't I come to Xu Mansion to learn how to cook with you?" What does it have to do with whether I like him or not? β
Hua Manxi: "......" girl, isn't the purpose of your entry into the Xu Mansion to soak in Xu Gongzi?
"Then, then it's up to you, since you know that people have already made a marriage, let's stop thinking about it." Hua Manxi persuaded.
This was said to Li Qiuqiu, and it was also said to himself.
Li Qiuqiu is a little girl who knows not to be a concubine, let alone her, an independent woman with a new education?
"I see! I've decided, starting tomorrow, I'm going to change my goal, and I'm going to take the breeze! I think the breeze looks good, too! Li Qiuqiu said proudly, "The most important thing is that he is stupid, I inquired about his life experience today, he has no father and no mother, this kind of person is the most suitable for recruitment!" β
Hua Manxi: "......" still dare to say that you came to Xufu to study art? In the end, it's not about soaking men!
She felt that Li Qiuqiu didn't need her enlightenment at all, so she glanced at her with a helpless look, and was completely defeated: "It's good if you're happy, it's good if you're happy, I'll go wash the dishes." β
She turned around and walked out of Li Qiuqiu's door, and quickly drank a sip of spicy soup to suppress her shock.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he put down the bowl, he saw Xu Jinfei across the door.
Both of them held bowls in their hands, looked at each other, had nothing to say, and were very embarrassed for a while.
"Well, I, I'm going to wash the dishes." After holding it for a long time, Hua Manxi took the initiative to step forward and took the empty bowl from Xu Jinfei's hand, "I'll wash it by the way." β
Xu Jinfei handed her the bowl in a daze, and in an instant he seemed to remember something again, and lowered his eyes awkwardly, his movements a little stiff.
Hua Manxi naturally noticed it, looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Young Master Xu, why are your eyes red?" β
"Spicy, you spicy, it's too spicy!" Xu Jinfei said in a cold voice.
"Oh, then I'll put less peppers next time." Hua Manxi nodded confusedly, and then walked out with two empty bowls.
After Hua Manxi cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, he boiled water to wash, tossed for a whole day, and after taking a bath, he fell on the bed and didn't want to move.
She was smoking, but suddenly remembered the two bottles of balm that Xu Jinfei gave her.
She climbed onto the bedside table, took out a bottle, opened it, only to feel that the fragrance of the cream inside was fresh, she gently wiped a layer, wiped it on her face, it felt cool and cool, very comfortable.
After Hua Manxi painted his face, he carefully screwed the lid again, and then lay down on the bed.
This balm should be expensive, brewing two jars of osmanthus brewing, it seems a little insincere, not to mention that this flower is still picked by people on the tree.
It's not that Hua Manxi has low emotional intelligence, it's just that just now on the tree, her feet were weak, and her whole person was trembling, and she really didn't have any extra thoughts about anything charming!
Thinking about it now, I realized that she seemed to be hugged by Xu Jinfei! Still hugging it tightly!
This is nothing in modern times, but in ancient times, is it detrimental to the honor! Will he insist on being responsible for himself!
No way! No way! He is a betrothed person, even though she likes him a little in her heart, but she doesn't like him to the point of being a concubine!
Hua Manxi is still very sensible, she feels that she must find a chance to remind him tomorrow! She doesn't want him to be responsible!
Besides, Xu Jinfei was woken up by Uncle Zhao's words, tossing and turning all night, unable to sleep, and finally fell asleep for a while in a daze when it was almost early in the morning, but before dawn, he was woken up by a deafening sound of oo
This damn chicken duck! What a terrible scream! Lord Shizi got up very angrily, changed his clothes and got up murderously, and went straight to the courtyard with his sword, intending to understand these annoying chickens and ducks with a sword.
Unexpectedly, Hua Manxi was one step ahead of him, and at this time he had already mixed the chaff and dried corn to feed the chickens and ducks.
She crouched outside the fence, squeaking and teasing the chickens and ducks.
"Eat quickly, eat full, eat full raw eggs, make salted eggs-" Hua Manxi sprinkled corn while singing the song he made up in a low voice, which showed that he was in a good mood.
The anger on Xu Dashizi's face was instantly smoothed down, and he stood in place in a daze, his expression softened.
"Childe, it's so early, get up to practice swords?" Uncle Zhao suddenly screamed behind his back.
Xu Dashizi noticed that he was still holding a sword in his hand, and his expression was a little embarrassed, but he quickly regained his coldness, and said calmly: "That's right, call the light wind and light clouds to make two moves with me." β
He can't sleep, and no one wants to sleep! It's so angry! He couldn't even deal with a few brutes!
He's a terrifying killer for his enemies! This little village girl really bowed down to him!
Lord Shizi sighed slowly, took the sword, flew into the open space in the front yard, faced the group of chickens and ducks in the air, and began to practice the sword with murderous spirit.
His movements are neat, his moves are cold, and after a few moves, the courtyard is full of sword reverberations, which is very majestic, but it scares the chickens and ducks in the chicken cage rattling, and it is even more noisy.
Hua Manxi watched him practice his sword in a daze, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses and said to Xu Jinfei: "Xu Gongzi, you, can you move a place to practice, you are so scared that this chicken and duck are too noisy." β
Xu Dashizi glanced at Hua Manxi resentfully, and couldn't help roaring in his heart, you also know the noise, you also know the noise! So much so that he can't sleep before dawn, if he doesn't scare this chicken and duck, will he scare her?
"If it's noisy, then slaughter." He put away his sword and said in a calm voice.
Hua Manxi: "......."
"Don't be noisy, don't be noisy, it's okay if you're happy, it's okay if you're happy, I'll go make breakfast." Hua Manxi keenly felt that this Xu Gongzi's mood didn't seem to be so beautiful, and immediately said with interest.
"The light breeze and the light cloud haven't gotten up yet, how do you care for the hospital!" He took a deep breath and shouted impatiently in the direction of Uncle Zhao.
Uncle Zhao hadn't answered yet, but Hua Manxi, who was about to go to the kitchen, paused, turned around and squeezed out a difficult smile at him, and explained: "The two of them got up early, and now they are turning the ground in the backyard, I will go home and pull some vegetable seedlings to plant, such a large piece of land, isn't it a waste to be empty?" Also, my godfather still has a little pig at home, Xu Gongzi, do you want to buy two pigs and raise them? β
Xu Shizi: "......"
Hua Manxi saw that his expression was green and white, and he didn't seem to be very happy, so he quickly persuaded again: "Although the greens are not valuable, they are planted in their own backyard, which is convenient and fresh!" And it's good to raise pigs, and you don't have to waste the rest of the meal, and you don't have to buy pork at the end of the year-"
Xu Shizi: "......"
How should he dispel the idea of this little village girl raising pigs!
"Uncle Zhao, he doesn't like to raise pigs." After holding back for a long time, Xu Dashizi squeezed out a perfunctory excuse in Hua Manxi's eager eyes.
"Why?" Hua Manxi still feels a pity, that vacant land is surrounded by a pigsty, which is a good top!
"Uh-" Xu Dashizi said without changing his face, "because Uncle Zhao's family was very poor when he was young, and he was so stumbling that his family almost took him to feed the pigs, so he hated raising pigs deeply!" β
"Soβforget it." Hua Manxi glanced sympathetically in the direction where Uncle Zhao was standing, and felt a feeling in his heart.
Although I don't have a father and a mother, I don't care too much, but my uncle and aunt brought me up, and I didn't let myself suffer a little grievance.
They are all children of poor families, and it is not easy for everyone, so she will not reveal Uncle Zhao's scars.
Hua Manxi finally gave up the idea of raising pigs and went to the kitchen with a sense of concern.
Xu Jinfei watched her thin back burrow into the kitchen, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Childe, what are you two muttering? I looked for it, but the breeze was not in the room. Uncle Zhao saw that Hua Manxi was gone, so he walked over slowly.
"I see, Manxi said they went to turn over the vegetable patch." Xu Shizi just pulled Uncle Zhao as an excuse, and for a while, he was a little weak-hearted, and looked up at the sky, "Today's weather is good, and it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, right?" β
"How many days are left, the day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival!" Uncle Zhao looked at his son-in-law's calm appearance, and said in disbelief, "Do you really want to let that little village girl toss like this?" Raising chickens in the front yard and growing vegetables in the backyard? How elegant are you as a well-born son? You indulge that little village girl like this? β
Ahem, how is it connivance? She has a point, raising chickens and ducks can eat leftovers, growing vegetables can provide their own food, fresh and save money, why not? Xu Dashizi covered his conscience and said nonsense.
"You, Childe, you've changed!" Uncle Zhao looked at him sadly, "I have already made it clear last night, what burden you have, you know it yourself, if you indulge in the idyllic fun created by a small village girl, the plaything is demoralized, and the old man is not welcome!" β
