.. org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the full court cuckoo red!
After a while, he said with a smile: "Master Xiao said that you are laughing, your status is precious, I am just a little girl from an ordinary people's family, but I don't dare to climb high." ”
The implication is that we are not familiar with each other, and we are close to it.
Xiao Qi's expression was slight, the little girl in front of him, from the look in her eyes after entering the door, he could see the incredible maturity and calmness, but what he didn't expect was that the words were so sharp, and the relationship he tried to get closer to was pushed to the ends of the earth.
It's a difficult little girl!
In his heart, Liu Qingyan, who seemed to be gentle and weak, re-examined it, became a little more cautious, and the smile on her face became thicker, "Miss Liu is serious, Xiao is just a businessman, how can he say that his identity is precious." What's more, in the future, you and I will be business partners, naturally we are equal to each other, the girl cares so much about identity, doesn't she dislike Xiao's humble background? ”
Take retreat as advance, smiling fox.
Liu Qingyan looked at the handsome face with a smile on the other side, muttered in her heart, and then pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth, and blinked her eyes and said: "I don't understand the origin of what Xiao Dagongzi said, I grew up in the countryside since I was a child, and I just entered the city, and I don't know the etiquette." I heard the elders say that you big families have a lot of rules, if I get too close to Xiao Dagongzi, and one accidentally bumps into you, it won't be good. ”
If you play a fox, then I can only play a little white rabbit!
Xiao Qimei's heart jumped, and she felt a little headache, this little girl didn't eat soft and hard, and she didn't eat oil and salt. That's it, if you can't show goodwill, let's get down to business.
"Miss Liu's mind is exquisite, and she thinks that she looks down on me and other businessmen who are full of copper smell, and Xiao is abrupt."
His voice is faintly bright in peace, restrained but full of tension, the faint smile at the corner of his mouth gradually precipitated, the concise and exquisite eyebrows, but at this moment it is plated with a layer of shallow loneliness, dark and warm eyes like a puddle of quiet spring, can not be explored, which contains infinite affection, looking into it, it will make people like sinking weak water, and the soul will never get a moment of peace in this life.
The shopkeeper Tong stood quietly aside, seeing that Xiao Qi's expression had changed, and his palms pinched a handful of cold sweat.
The man in front of him is very dangerous, his scheming is deep and terrifying, far less simple than Shi Lei, and anything in his heart will appear on his face.
This person should stay away.
Liu Qingyan's expression did not change in the slightest, and she quickly built a thick and high barrier in her heart, pursed her lips and said: "Xiao Dagongzi is really good at making fun of people, since we will cooperate in the future, then I am also a businessman, how can I be qualified to look down on people." ”
Qingquan's eyes are lively and bright, without the slightest impurity, coupled with the childish demeanor of the little daughter, no matter how you look at it, she looks pure and innocent, as if all the evil in the world is isolated from her, which makes people feel pity.
Xiao Qi's heart throbbed, and he was in a trance, feeling that he should be ashamed of himself in front of this little girl. If he didn't use some extraordinary means, how could he be the helmsman of the Xiao family, the richest man in Jiangnan, and the children of the side branches of the concubine were staring at this position day by day, hoping that he would make a mistake one day so that he could replace him.
It's just a precocious child, so why bother with her.
As soon as he thought of this, the unhappiness in his heart dissipated, and his smile was clear and bright, "What Miss Liu said is very true, since we are business partners in the same boat in the future, there is no need to be obsessed with one title." I am much older than you, even if I am old, I will call the girl the sister of the Liu family in the future. ”
I'm not a grasshopper tied to a rope with you, at most I have made a small deal, and I can pick a child by helping you open a bean paste workshop. There is also how awkward the title of the sister of the Liu family sounds, and Li Guang also calls it that.
Li Guang...... Auspicious cloth village, Ruyi building, auspicious Ruyi, Ruyi auspicious, is the two together?
Many thoughts appeared in her mind at once, Liu Qingyan tilted her head to look at Xiao Qi, and did not answer his question directly, but asked: "Is the Jixiang Buzhuang in Linshui Town your family?" Who is Li Guang again? ”
Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and replied: "All the auspicious cloth villages in Jiangnan belong to my family, Li Guang is my distant cousin, and the sister of the Liu family knows Li Guang?" ”
Liu Qingyan pursed her lips, but she did not object to his name for herself, and replied: "In this way, it is not an outsider, Li Guang is my father's student." One day, my family and I met Li Guang in Jixiangbuzhuang in Linshui Town, and when I heard him talk about his eldest cousin, I thought it was you. ”
Xiao Qi frowned and thought about it, opening the small memories of Linshui Town in his mind one by one, and a smile suddenly bloomed from his lips, "Sister Liu has been to Moxiangzhai opposite Buzhuang that day?" ”
His eyebrows and eyes are slender and sparse, stretched out, the luster in his eyes is as smooth as warm jade, his smile is like a midnight epiphany blooming leisurely, and there is an ethereal beauty floating in the cleanliness, which can reach people's hearts.
Fortunately, Liu Qingyan already has a handsome young man like Shi Lei by her side, and she has some immunity to beautiful men, otherwise in the face of such a handsome guy with great visual impact, she will have to have another nymphomaniac.
"I've been there, I met Li Guang in Moxiangzhai, and then we went back to Buzhuang together. Li Guang heard that the shopkeeper of Buzhuang said that you had left, so he left in a hurry. ”
"In this way, this is the second time I've seen Sister Liu, but my sister hasn't seen me." Xiao Qi said with some jokingness.
Liu Qingyan looked at him in surprise.
"That day, I happened to see Sister Liu running across the street at the window." Xiao Qi got up and walked to the window to look into the distance, on the close-fitting white brocade robe, the bamboo branch pattern embroidered with silver thread, and the wide sleeves hung down from both sides, elegant and noble, like a fairy.
Liu Qingyan secretly said 'demon', and then ran to the window to look at the scenery, in front of the peaks and obstacles, lined with the blue sky, there are large merchant ships on the river, the scenery is very beautiful.
Unfortunately, she was petite and stood on tiptoe to rest her arms on the windowsill.
"Where are those boats going?"
Xiao Qi glanced sideways at her and said softly: "Yuanjiang, then Lengjiang, and then all over the territory of the dynasty. ”
Liu Qingyan looked at the boat for a while, and suddenly said, "This boat is too slow." ”
Xiao Qi turned around and said in surprise: "Could it be that the sister of the Liu family has seen a faster ship?" ”
Belch!
Liu Qingyan stuck out her tongue and said in her heart: I've never seen it, I fell from the boat, and as soon as I fell, I fell here, and the boat was much faster and bigger than this.
"No, I've never been anywhere else, how could I have seen it, it's just that it feels slow." As he spoke, he looked dazed and went back to sit down.
Xiao Qi saw that her face was depressed, his heart softened, and he explained softly, "We are too far away here, if you sit on the boat, you won't feel slow, if you are free in the future, you can take a boat to Fucheng to find me to play, just feel it." ”
Boat? How dare I take a boat? I don't know where I went on the boat again.
Liu Qingyan's face was even more bitter, thinking that it would be safer to take the land route in the future.
The shopkeeper Tong held back for a long time, and when he saw that the situation was peaceful, he said: "Eldest son, seeing that it's time to eat, I'll go down and tell the cook to clean up a few side dishes." ”
Xiao Qi nodded and said, "Just pick up a few light new dishes and make them." ”
The shopkeeper Tong was puzzled: "Eldest son, the new dishes given by Miss Liu are few light." ”
Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and Liu Qingyan thought about it, as if it was uh, so she pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother Xiao's taste is light, why is it difficult to eat lighter dishes, I'll make a few dishes." ”
Curry favor with the big boss, maybe there will be a big deal to talk about.
"In this way, won't it be too troublesome for the sister of the Liu family?"
Xiao Qi refused, in fact, he really wanted to try Liu Qingyan's craftsmanship.
"No trouble, no trouble, just a few side dishes, it will be fine soon."
Liu Qingyan is now familiar with the road, and she doesn't need to be accompanied by the shopkeeper, so she walked to the big stove room, and when she saw the hibiscus flowers in the yard, she picked two flowers and made a hibiscus chicken slices.
When the fire-burning lady and the cooks saw Liu Qingyan, they came forward to say hello, and learned that Liu Qingyan was cooking for the big owner's family, and enthusiastically said that they wanted to help, and by the way, they learned a hand.
Fish ball soup, hibiscus chicken slices, stir-fried beef with kale heart, ginger pine eggs, salted egg yolk pumpkin, four dishes and one soup are light enough, and there is no chili pepper.
Xiao Qi looked at the dishes on the table, and with some unexpected surprises, he invited Liu Qingyan to eat together.
"Let's eat with the sisters of the Liu family, I can't eat so many dishes alone."
Liu Qingyan was naturally not polite, she didn't have the habit of watching others eat, so she sat down without hesitation.
Poor shopkeeper Tong could only wait on the sidelines.
Xiao Qi attaches great importance to table manners, chews slowly, and is very elegant in his every move.
The Ruyi Pavilion, which can accommodate dozens of people to eat at the same time, is now only two people silently eating with vegetables, and the atmosphere makes Liu Qingyan not very happy.
Modern people do business at the dinner table, the wine table is negotiated, the more lively the atmosphere, the better, and even can sing a song, dance or something, through the ancients for so long, have never eaten a meal with such a stagnant atmosphere.
The last time I had dinner with the people from the rivers and lakes of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, I also talked and laughed!
Eating and eating, Liu Qingyan couldn't help but think of Shi Lei.
After Shi Lei helped her move into the city, she followed her to escort the dart, and she didn't know where she was at the moment.
Although the child was young, he also knew how to take care of people, and he would also pick up vegetables for himself.
is also eating with a handsome guy, why is the difference in mood so big.
Liu Qingyan glanced at Xiao Qi, who was slow and methodical, and sped up the speed of eating.
Hmph, I made the food, I have to eat enough. I'm still a child, and I'm growing up!
Xiao Qi smiled, thinking that he was still a child after all.
After finishing the meal, the shopkeeper Tong called the men to clean up, and re-served the tea, so he also went down to eat by himself.
Xiao Qi picked up the teacup, took a sip lightly, and said leisurely: "Actually, one of the purposes of my visit to Yuxi County this time is also for salted duck eggs and Songhua eggs. ”
Well, it's finally time to get down to business.
Liu Qingyan looked at Xiao Qi with wide eyes, and motioned for him to continue.
"My grandmother and Li Guang's grandmother are a pair of cousins, and a few months ago, my cousin and grandmother sent someone to deliver these two fresh ingredients to my house, but at that time, I was entangled in affairs, and I had no time to look for them, so I delayed until recently."
