Chapter 142: Effort

Xiao Jia has been kneeling outside the gate of Liufu Lane, although he knows that he has a big article this time, but he really has nowhere to go, and hopes that Liu Zhi is soft-hearted, so his heart is horizontal and he kneels at the gate. Zhang's mother was afraid of gossip so she let him in, and Liu Zhi ignored him, and now he has been kneeling in the yard all morning, but the white sugar cake walked around him a few times, quite curious.

Xiao Jia's whole body was numb, he stared blankly at the few small grasses that emerged from the cracks of the stone slabs, everything is alive, why can't he find a way.

A pair of lake-blue embroidered toes appear in front of you. "How did you become such a bastard?" Willow Branch crouched in front of him.

Xiao Jia looked up at her, her white and delicate face was not tanned at all, although her long braids were coiled into a bun, she was still the refreshing and righteous girl of Feng Liuji. Suddenly he began to cry and cry very sadly.

Why did the same orphan and the eldest girl choose Li Chun, where is he worse than Li Chun, and he is still a member of the eldest girl's family.

Li Chun can marry a big girl like this, and he can only marry a second-hand person who marries a person. I was wronged in my heart, and I didn't dare to say it, so I fell into the widow's way.

Those angry words, but some of them are sincere. He fantasized more than once that the man the big girl followed was himself.

Liu Zhi asked Zhang's mother to fetch water, and Xingrui to go to the kitchen to get some food. "Let's go after a break, I really don't want to keep you. Keeping you any longer will also harm you, and you will really become the kind of living person who is suffocated by urine. ”

Xiao Jia cried like a mud dog: "Big girl, I will change, I must change, you give me one last chance." ”

Liu Zhi still shook his head: "This is for your good, I will find you a job in the Seventh Master's shop, you can always support yourself, you follow the study and learn hard, maybe you can open a small shop like my father in the future, why is it not good." ”

The eldest girl was really heartless, a flame surged from the bottom of her heart, and Xiao Jia blurted out: "But you have always been willing to wait for Li Chun." ”

In an instant, Liu Zhi felt that every leaf in the yard froze, she stared at Xiao Jia, and under her forced gaze, he timidly lowered his crying face, and whispered: "Big girl, I didn't mean that."

Now Willow Branch didn't want to hear any explanation, "You must go." ”

She didn't want Xiao Jia to die. Li Chun wanted to come back to know what he said, Liu Zhi remembered the nightmare he had, remembered Li Da's death, and remembered what Xiao Eleven Ye had said, no matter what, Xiao Jia's crime will not lead to death.

Xingrui came in, and her voice was several degrees lower: "Lady, he left and kowtowed three times outside the door." Everything was given to him. Liu Zhi asked Xing Rui to pack up all the clothes and bedding in Xiaojia's room, roll them, and found two pieces of cash in his hand, estimated that there were more than ten taels and gave them to him.

Liu Zhi was lying on the bed with a sullen breath that didn't know if it was himself or Li Chun, anyway, he was panicked, and tears came out unconsciously. I cried for a while and fell asleep.

After the widow incident, Liu Zhi became cautious, although Xiao Jia was useless, but he was placed there, and now there is a minor shrimp at home, full of female dependents, the key is that these women look like they want to be bullied.

Liu Zhi herself will not say it, she is not very old, and she is not tall, if she is not cross-haired, she is a cowardly little girl; Xingrui is also a twenty-year-old little woman, and fair-skinned and slender, and also has a bit of appearance, Aunt Xu is the daughter of Xiucai, and she also walks in a delicate and gentle style, and after raising it for a month, she is also plump and her complexion is better, and she is also outstanding among the women.

The eldest mother, Zhang, was sent by Mrs. Seven, and she wants to know that big families will not use people with hideous faces and ugly bodies. Therefore, it is inevitable that women of different ages will attract attention. And dragging Xiaojia's mouth to pieces, the streets and alleys are saying that Mrs. Li originally eloped, and there are even idlers who go to her yard to whistle and sing small songs.

struggled to explain that the male owner of her family had just gone to sea, and everyone was suspicious. Every day, someone comes to the store to see what the eloped daughter's house looks like, Xu Niangzi is Xiucai's daughter, and stopped in front of Liu Zhi and said loudly: "Nanquan is the most important etiquette, we have been to the chief's house to prove her innocence, if Li Niangzi is really this kind of person, the chief security officer will not allow her to open a store here." ”

Seeing that the moved out of the chief of security, the rumors of elopement gradually dissipated a little, but it was replaced by the statement that she was a little widow. Who made her man never seen before, and who let this little lady's handsome and affectionate words come out of the mouth of her own man. Willow Branch was so angry that she couldn't quarrel with anyone, and Xing Rui also asked if she wanted to ask Mrs. Seven, but Willow Branch refused, women would have to encounter more trouble than men in doing things, so she didn't believe that she couldn't do it.

After all, gossip has limited lethality, and idlers just want to be happy, and they don't want to really cause anything. Willow Branch tried his best to make a living, after all, others came to eat, and if the things were good, naturally there would be no boring things.

Willow Branch's current fixed dishes are roast pork with radish, konjac pickled meat puree, and taro meat puree, which are the most affordable and have always been very popular. Liu Zhi and the first time the butcher said that he would use his meat for a fixed time, although she didn't buy much in the shop, but the fine water Changliu was also a good customer, and the butcher was very polite to her, and sent a few stick bones and a little water or something.

She bought a big clay pot, two stick bones to boil the soup, cut the kelp into shreds and put it in, doubling the deliciousness, Aunt Xu sighed after drinking a bowl: "The soup I used to drink was very fishy, this is really delicious." ”

In fact, it is just one more blanching water, and some of the ingredients are unique secrets, and some are well-known to the public, but many people want to save trouble or feel that it is not important. Liu Zhi couldn't help but think of Jiaojiao and Fifth Brother Feng, when she was able to enter and exit Manxianglou freely, she really mastered a lot of tricks, you must know that although some are just light and skillful, they may be summed up by people for most of their lives.

I don't know if Jiaojiao is married. When he settles down, he must take Brother Xiaochun back to Songning Mansion to find Jiaojiao.

But it's so amazing that Willow Branches herself is so bored that she doesn't think about home once.

I left this soup and drank it myself, and I drank one bowl or two bowls casually. When the soup is less, add water to it and continue to boil, and the taste becomes weaker and weaker, and the kelp becomes less and less, but this is free, and there is nothing to say, but those who are clever are unanimously attacked by everyone.

Those who came early with a soup spoon and a spoonful of kelp into their bowls, and those who drank three bowls or five bowls in a row, naturally some people would cry. "Brothers, it's almost enough, they're all bitter people, leave some for others" "It's good to leave some flavor down, this is not just you, the boss lady takes care of the big guy, what is it to take advantage of one person" "Forget it, fat, I can count it, this is the fourth time you have gotten up, drink a lot and pee a lot, why bother." ”

The order problem is naturally solved, after all, there are some things that customers can say, but the store can't say.

With the free hot soup, her family's business slowly rose again. Sometimes when I see a familiar or good-faced worker passing by, I also ask someone to drink a bowl of soup, this is the bond, who knows when I need the help of others.

Liu Zhi went to a few more grocery stores to find a batch of small bowls to make steamed meatloaf.

She went to the butcher, this time to underwrite his scraps, and then she told Xingrui to buy the cheapest fish that were dying or just dead, and the fish and meat were pureed, stirred thoroughly, and then added shrimp powder and diced radish, and steamed in the upper drawer one by one.

This meatloaf is just a handwork, but it doesn't cost anything, it is the size of a woman's fist, a three-penny, it is also very affordable, and the soup is so delicious that you can mix it with another bowl of rice. Most of the dock workers like to come and have a tooth beating, and this meatloaf is soft and rotten, which is most suitable for children and the elderly, and some people buy it back to improve the appetite of the old and young at home, which is very popular.

At one time, another income was developed, and the neighbors in the neighborhood called a steamed vegetable to add vegetables, all of which had meat, and it looked like there was nothing wrong with it, which was much more cost-effective than making it yourself.
