Chapter 60: Erzhu Niang
The four of them wrapped the dumplings, and it was already a long time past lunch when they put them into the pot. Although I ate something to pad in October, I was still very hungry.
"Sister Chuntao, hurry up, okay? Don't add any more water. "When the dumplings floated, Chun Tao added another bowl of cold water, and when the water boiled, another bowl of cold water was added.
"It's called 'some water,' and it's delicious."
"But it's slow." October stared at the pot and kept swallowing.
Finally the water boiled again, and finally the dumplings were fished out and drained. October hurriedly ran back to the table, sat down, and held chopsticks.
Chun Tao put the dumplings on the table and brought chili oil, vinegar and garlic water. "Yes... Dip it in spices and eat it, you can also... Cook the soup. ”
"Isn't that like Uncle Li cooking noodles, prepare the soup first, and then put the dumplings in?" September didn't forget what Chun Tao explained, even if the food was in front, she still said what Chun Tao explained.
Erzhu's father was eating dumplings, and when he heard this, he seemed to understand something. "Brother and sister, this is..."
Zhou Kuiruo sat down and replied for Chun Tao: "This is also our kindness, since Brother Li has learned, you can also try to sell it in the future, and the business should be good." ”
"It's... How can this work? Aren't you going to do business too? I'm selling it, so don't you..."
Erzhu's father wanted to say more, but Zhou Kuiruo interrupted him in time. "Humble Jing is already very tired just selling these things, and I really don't have any extra time to prepare for this. Besides, Brother Li, you mainly make pasta, and selling this is just right. ”
"I'm... You can't use your stuff for nothing! ”
"Don't we put things in your house too? This also cancels each other out, and the two do not owe each other. ”
"It's... There is no such saying. Your dumplings are not only rare, but they taste good, if I sell them, business will be booming in the future. Is it possible for you to keep this thing for so long? ”
"You and I are good brothers, if you really want to care about this, wouldn't it hurt your feelings." Zhou Kuiruo saw that Erzhu's father insisted on not accepting it, so he played the family card.
"Good! Good! Good! In that case, I will give you two percent of the profits, just like you, and you must not disagree with this, otherwise you will not treat me as a brother. Erzhu's father said quickly and urgently, and he didn't give people a chance to interject at all.
Zhou Kuiruo also knew that if he rejected this condition, then the Erzhu father he said would not agree, so he could only agree. "Good!"
"That's right! In the future, you will come to get dividends once a month, and that's it. ”
"Good!" Because Erzhu's father was not a shrewd businessman, the two only discussed verbally and did not sign a contract.
We discussed what we had to do, and half of the dumplings were all on the table. "Some... Inadequate... Re-cook. ”
Half of the spring peach is boiled and half is left, but it seems that it should not be finished.
"I still want to eat, but my stomach is full." October rested his head on the table and stared at the rest of the four.
"Then don't eat it, eat it again! The stomach will blow up. Seeing October's appearance, Erzhu's father couldn't help but tease her.
October immediately protected his bulging belly and stared at Erzhu's father in panic. "Is it really going to blow up?"
"Of course it's funny, you're so stupid." September on the side saw the appearance of October, and the daily sister mode began again.
"Who said I was stupid? I'm smart. Sister Chun Tao praised me last time! ”
"Sister Chun Tao just praised you casually, are you serious?" As soon as September said it casually, he said Chun Tao's true thoughts
"That Chun Tao sister praised you casually." October was unwilling to be said and went back.
September stuffed a dumpling into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and then looked at October and said, "Sister Chun Tao's praise for me is true, praising you is perfunctory for you." ”
"How do you know?" October can't talk about September, and he shouted at her angrily.
"Eating, it's too noisy." Chun Tao said a word coldly, October didn't dare to say it again, glared at September, and sat quietly, but his mouth kept pursing.
September glanced at Chun Tao and didn't say anything more, just quietly ate his dumplings.
Erzhu's father watched quietly, and finally couldn't help but say, "My brother and sister are really strict." ”
"As the saying goes, 'a loving mother loses more children', and being strict is good for them." Zhou Kuiruo knew that Chun Tao would not explain.
"Yes! The one in my family is much more fierce than my younger siblings, and the six relatives don't recognize it when they start a fire! What a voice! It's more infiltrating than a wolf's howl..."Erzhu's father's conversation box was opened at once, and the complaints continued.
Chun Tao caught a glimpse of a figure, and turned his head to see that it was Erzhu Niang, who was still standing aside and snickering. "I... I'm full... October... September... Other... Don't eat it. ”
"Good!" September reluctantly put down one of the dumplings he had just picked up, and quickly stuffed the dumplings in the bowl into his mouth.
Zhou Kuiruo noticed the strangeness of Chun Tao, and raised his head to meet Erzhu Niang's gloomy gaze. "cough~cough~"
"What's wrong? Choking? "Erzhu's father hasn't reacted yet.
"You eat slowly, I'll be busy first." Zhou Kuiruo put down the bowl out of the instinct of survival and returned to the place where he set up his stall.
"Hmmm! Good! ”
October turned his head in confusion and found Erzhu Niang. "Aunt Li, why are you here?"
When Erzhu's father heard this, he was immediately stunned, half of a dumpling was in his mouth, and half was exposed.
After being stunned for a while, Erzhu's father swallowed the dumplings, stiffened his face, and turned around. Chun Tao had already called September and October aside, away from this war without gunpowder.
"Sister Chuntao, Aunt Li is so fierce!" The three of them hid in Zhou Kuiruo's booth and watched.
"Aunt Li is better than my mother, and my mother almost screwed off her father's ears last time."
"That's right, my mother will not only scold my father, but also beat my father! Aunt Li won't beat Uncle Li. ”
September covered his ears and said, "But Aunt Li's voice is so harsh." ”
"Hmmm! My ears can't stand it. The two sisters were there to discuss the matter of Erzhu's father, and they were careful to sell their father and mother again.
Chun Tao covered her ears, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and her breathing gradually became shorter.
"What's wrong with you?" Although the battle over there was fierce, Zhou Kuiruo still noticed Chun Tao's strangeness.
"No, I just think it's too noisy." Chun Tao took another deep breath, suppressing the irritability in her heart.
After Chun Tao took countless deep breaths, Erzhu Niang finally stopped.
Erzhu's father secretly rubbed his ears that were stinged by Erzhu's mother's roar, and apologized to Zhou Kuiruo and others. "Let my brother laugh."
Zhou Kuiruo smiled slightly embarrassed and said, "Where." Why is my sister-in-law free to come over today? ”
"I came out to buy paper for my child, so I stopped by to have a look. Didn't scare you just now! Actually, I'm not usually like this~" Erzhu Niang covered her mouth and pretended to smile shyly after speaking, and Erzhu's father on the side had facial cramps in disgust, but he didn't dare to be too obvious.
"No, it won't." Although Zhou Kuiruo had seen Erzhu Niang's ability to change her face, she was still a little awkward, and her smile was stiff.
Erzhu Niang looked at Chun Tao, who still hadn't come, and asked, "Brother and sister, are you okay?" ”
Zhou Kuiruo also turned his head to look at Chun Tao, and after Chun Tao heard his name, he shook his head at a few people, indicating that he was fine.
Erzhu Niang saw that there was nothing wrong with Zhou Kuiruo's side, so she nagged Erzhu's father a few words and left.
Chun Tao adjusted her emotions and put away the dishes and chopsticks on the table, ready to wash.
"Are you alright?" Zhou Kuiruo looked at Chun Tao's appearance just now, and was inexplicably a little worried.
Chun Tao shook her head and began to wash the dishes. "It's okay, you're busy!"
Zhou Kuiruo saw that she didn't want to tell herself, so she didn't bother anymore, and returned to her position with a frown.
After helping Chun Tao clean up in September and October, Chun Tao said to Zhou Kuiruo and went out with the two children.
Zhou Kuiruo looked at Chun Tao's unaware back, and the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, and slapped the pen heavily on the table, and the ink splashed on the white paper.
The longer she gets along with Chun Tao and the closer the relationship, the more she feels that she is closing herself, and it seems that no one can get into her heart. This realization made Zhou Kuiruo more and more anxious and powerless.
"Sister Chun Tao, where are we going?"
"You'll know when you go."
"Okay!" Chun Tao looked like he didn't say anything, which made October die.
