Through the dim sunset on the horizon, Sheng Qingqing could barely see clearly that in the small palm, the same small - little red pepper.

In their backyard, it is indeed a wasteland. Most of the alfalfa grass is used to raise rabbits. But alfalfa grass is still a weed in the final analysis, and it is of little use to people.

In addition to the alfalfa grass, there are only a few red pepper seedlings that were planted in the backyard.

The reason why this red pepper seedling was planted in the backyard was only to reveal a kind of information, so that outsiders would know that she had the seedlings of this plant in her hands, so that if she planted it in a small area in the field in the future, it would not arouse suspicion.

And the last time he let Second Uncle Niu come to see these pepper seedlings, Sheng Qingqing didn't care about them anymore. There are only two pepper seedlings in total, and they are still growing in winter, Sheng Qingqing does not expect them to live for a long time.

In fact, the last time the two seedlings were able to hold up for Uncle Niu to watch, it was because Sheng Qingqing poured a little space spring water in advance. Otherwise, this day is freezing cold, and the heat-loving plant of chili pepper would have died long ago.

However, now the two children told her that the chili seedlings actually grew chili peppers?!

Sheng Qingqing took Sheng Siming's hand and observed it carefully for a moment, making sure that he was not dazzled, although it was a little smaller, it was indeed a red pepper.

"It's amazing that it can grow in this winter......" Sheng Qingqing couldn't help but sigh.

Even though spring has begun now, the weather is still very cold. Even if the village wants to go to the field to plant, it will take a month before planting seedlings, and if they do now, they will definitely freeze to death.

"It's fine." Sheng Qingqing took the little pepper out of Sheng Siming's hand and said with a smile: "This fruit is ripe, even if Siming breaks it, it can still be eaten." ”

Red peppers are generally used in the sun, but fresh can also be cooked.

"Today, my sister will use this little pepper to cook for you!"

Sheng Zhizhi didn't care about anything else, as long as there was something delicious, she was very happy, and she cheered.

Sheng Siming's face was still a little red, but when he heard Sheng Qingqing say that it didn't matter, the sense of embarrassment was much less. After all, although he did something wrong, it didn't go bad. It's a blessing in misfortune.

Sheng Qingqing led the two children back to the yard with one in one hand. Behind him was a small civet cat that jumped out of nowhere.

"Amber was with you just now, huh?"

Sheng Zhizhi nodded again and again, "Yes, Amber is good, she has been playing with us." ”

Sheng Qingqing was a little surprised, in modern times, many people like to raise cats, but those kittens are the same as the master, and their little raccoon cat is magical, so well-behaved.

"Eat Amber that night." Sheng Qingqing said with a smile.

The little civet cat seemed to understand what she said, and meowed, ran a few steps forward, and made a circle at Sheng Qingqing's feet.

The three siblings couldn't help but laugh.

Let the two children stay in the main house, so as not to freeze, Sheng Qingqing went to the kitchen.

There are more people who want to eat tonight, and the time is relatively tight, the small kitchen of the Sheng family will definitely not be opened, so Sheng Qingqing went directly to the space. If Uncle Niu's family came, she would definitely be able to feel it in the space.

The space was still the same as when she left at noon.

Including the half-milled spices before, they were still stored there, and even some of the spice dust was flying in the air because of her hurried movements before.

It wasn't until the moment Sheng Qingqing entered the space that they slowly fell from mid-air.

"It's really troublesome......" Sheng Qingqing couldn't help but sigh lowly.

As I said before, there are no living creatures in this space except for the little goldfish. This is not because Sheng Qingqing feels that other plants are not alive, but because once she leaves this space, everything in the space will be instantly still, and it will not return to normal until she enters the space again.

That's where she finds it troublesome, if it weren't for the static relationship, she could have put the spices in the mill and grind them automatically, and then she'd be outside. It's not like being a thief every time you grind now.

"So, you're the most amazing thing in this space." Sheng Qingqing stretched out her hand to touch the little goldfish in the pool.

Not surprisingly, the little goldfish flicked its tail and fled from under her quickly, very agile.

Sheng Qingqing couldn't help laughing, but she didn't chase after her. From the first day she owned this space, she knew how extraordinary this little goldfish was. After all, the little goldfish is too prominent and a little too unique.

But it didn't matter, she didn't intend to delve into the reason for the existence of this space anyway. She was lucky to be able to survive the explosion and live a new life, and there was no need to think about anything else.

Everything in the back kitchen, including the ingredients she prepared in the morning, is also stored here.

With the help of modern advanced stoves and instruments, Sheng Qingqing made seven or eight dishes in one go, looking at the time, it didn't take long, but only half an hour.

It's really fast.

After calculating the time, Sheng Qingqing felt that Aunt Niu and they should be coming soon, so she transferred all the dishes in the space to the kitchen. Although without the insulation equipment, these dishes will be cold. But such weather can only be justified if the vegetables are a little colder.

And it turns out that Sheng Qingqing did not miscalculate.

Not long after she had brought out all the dishes, someone outside the courtyard was calling.

"Sister Aqing!"

"Huh!" Sheng Qingqing answered in the kitchen, but she still had work on her hands, so she shouted to the main house: "Zhizhi and Siming go open the door." ”

Sheng Zhizhi and Sheng Siming were both very obedient, and immediately ran out and opened the door when they heard the words.

The two families know each other very well, and they don't say those polite words.

Second Aunt Niu saw that Sheng Qingqing was still busy in the kitchen, and immediately asked to go over to help.

Sheng Qingqing hurriedly stopped and said, "Second aunt, I'm already busy, you can sit down quickly." ”

Because the family is small, there is no other place to sit in a house where six people can sit at a time except the main house. But the main house was already used as a bedroom, so Sheng Qingqing could only temporarily set up a table in the courtyard and everyone ate open-air.

Fortunately, although the weather is still a little cold, the northwest wind is gone, otherwise if you eat in the yard, if you don't finish a meal, everyone who eats will be sick.

"Anything can keep you busy." Aunt Niu was unwilling to let Sheng Qingqing work alone, she asked Sheng Zhizhi, Sheng Siming, and Second Uncle Niu, who had been tired for a day, to sit down first, and then instructed Niu Yu to go over to help Sheng Qingqing serve the plates.

Niu Yu went to the kitchen honestly, and wailed as if it were true and false: "My mother, I have been tired all day today, why don't you feel sorry for me!" ”

Aunt Niu slapped him on the forehead, "What are you tired of!" Don't think that the old lady doesn't know, you just went to see the door for a while today and didn't do anything! ”

Niu Yu was slapped by his mother, and he didn't dare to refute a word. What's more, he can't refute that today's work is indeed not tiring.

When he took Sheng Qingqing to the town for the first time a year ago, Second Uncle Niu came back happily and arranged work for Niu Yu. As soon as this year is over, you can go to work. The new job is obviously much easier than the previous one......

"However, I always feel that something is not right......" Niu Yu muttered. didn't say his doubts out loud, he still followed behind Aunt Niu honestly, and brought out the dishes made by Sheng Qingqing one by one.

There are a total of eight dishes, neatly placed on the table, and each dish looks full of color, flavor, and flavor.

Niu Yu made a big bowl of rice, and almost went to eat this dinner with gratitude, and the one who ate it was called a gobble. But the full meal still couldn't stop his mouth.

"It's so delicious, Sister Aqing, your craft, if you go to the town to open a store, it will definitely be like a cloud!"

Sheng Qingqing listened, smiled and didn't speak.

She wanted to go to the town and set up shop. But opening a store also requires capital, first of all, it is necessary to have a large amount of capital, and then it is necessary to buy land, and it is necessary to have a background, at least a background like "Huiyuan Building". Otherwise, it will be difficult to solve the problem of those ruffians and hooligans coming to collect protection money, not to mention how to deal with it if the business is good and competes with the "Huiyuan Building", and the power background of the "Huiyuan Building" is secretly looking for trouble.

"Seriously, I've been working in the town for the past few days, and I've seen a lot, and I think Sister Aqing, you should go to the town...... Not! ”

"I can't stop you when you eat!" Aunt Niu stuffed back all the words behind her son with chopsticks. She smiled embarrassedly at Sheng Qingqing: "Miss Qing, don't worry about your little brother Yu, his brain is lacking." ”

Sheng Qingqing still smiled and didn't speak. What could she say? Niu Yu mentioned that she was kind, but the real problem was that she couldn't do it herself, so she couldn't blame others.

Aunt Niu looked at her face carefully, but unfortunately the candlelight in the yard was not bright enough to see clearly.

She thought about it for a while, changed the topic and said, "Hey, I'm really bothering you today, and I made such a big table of dishes, and the second aunt who ate it was embarrassed." ”

"Where, it's a matter of effort." Sheng Qingqing said very sincerely. She's really just handy, these dishes are not difficult for her at all, and the only thing that distresses her may be those ingredients.

Eight dishes, the ingredients to be consumed must not be small. At least for a poor family, it is indeed a lot of consumption. Even if Sheng Qingqing and many parties have transactions now, they are only just the beginning of the transaction. The money she has on hand now is really small.

However, today's meal, Sheng Qingqing was willing.

"If it weren't for the second aunt, I'm afraid I would have suffered a big loss today!" Sheng Qingqing's words are still very sincere.

Second Uncle Niu swallowed the last bite of food, and finally spoke, "Big loss? What's going on? ”
