Chapter 190: Mildew
Han Mao and his family are greedy for money in the public account, and this matter is well known. Z.br>
It's just that the horse's feet have not been exposed, why did it leak the day before Chinese New Year's Eve?
"How?"
Han Beiqing stood in the cold wind, gathered the cloak on his body and rubbed his fingers: "Don't go back to the house first, let's go to my uncle's house and sit down."
Everyone was rerouted to the goldfish alley next door, and before getting out of the car, Han Beiqing glanced back at Bai Zhu.
Bai Zhu nodded at Han Beiqing, and at this time, Da Long and Xiao Can rushed over in a hurry with a wheelbarrow.
Seeing that the people who followed him caught up, Han Beiqing asked Holly to knock on the door of his uncle's house.
"Oh, you're here." It was the eldest aunt Zhou who opened the door, and when she saw Han Beiqing's simple little face, she happily opened the door and welcomed everyone in.
"Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, I will come over to pay a greeting to my uncle and aunt."
When Zhou heard that Han Beiqing had come to pay New Year's greetings, he couldn't close his mouth happily. Normally, it should be the first day of the first month of the first month, but Han Beiqing greeted the New Year in advance, which is also good in the eyes of the elders.
Dalong Xiaocan pushed the wheelbarrow to the small courtyard and said, "Happy New Year, eldest lady." After speaking, without waiting for Zhou to speak, the two began to move the things in the car down.
"Oh, what is this for? The New Year's gift given by your girl has already been distributed, so why do you have to take things here."
Seeing something, Zhou panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Nannan, that restaurant is still being repaired, and there are places to use money everywhere. The family is not interested in courtesy, and whoever bought these things from, return them quickly."
Han Beiqing smiled lightly and pulled the panicked Zhou: "It's still my aunt who feels sorry for me and wants to save me more money."
Zhou pushed Han Beiqing away, anxious and angry: "Of course you have to save money, and the silver is not blown by the wind. Your uncle has been supervising the work in the restaurant for the past few days, and he sighs every day when he comes home. It was said that the money was spent like flowing water, and I couldn't sleep all night in distress."
Only your own family will feel sorry for your difficulty. Only people who really care about you and love you want to save you some money.
Han Beiqing couldn't help but take Zhou's hand and dragged her into the room: "Don't worry, I won't trade at a loss." I have important things to ask you. Auntie, come into the house, I'm in a hurry."
Zhou saw Han Beiqing's abnormal expression, and his heart was inexplicably entangled. followed Han Beiqing into the house, and then closed the door.
Inside the house, Yuan Erniang was lying on her side on the small kang in the west room, and her sleeping son was lying beside her. Seeing Han Beiqing come in, she sat up from the kang, gathered the clothes on her body, and smiled sleepily, "My sister is here."
"Well, sister-in-law, don't get up, so as not to startle the child."
Han Beiqing slowed down and leaned to the side of the kang, looking at his nephew with a loving face for a long time. I wanted to reach out and touch his little face, but I thought that my fingers were cold, so I retracted it again.
Rare enough for his nephew, Han Beiqing walked to the east room, kicked his feet, and dragged his shoes on the warm kang.
"Let's have a cup of hot tea first, and I'm talking about something." Zhou handed Han Beiqing a cup of tea, Han Beiqing took a sip, and his eyes lit up.
Looking down at the reddish-brown tea, he looked at Zhou in surprise: "This.... Is this milk tea?"
"Well, I used good black tea, mixed it with milk, added a lot of rock sugar, and boiled it for two hours to get this taste. Taste it, it's not what you say." Zhou looked at Han Beiqing expectantly.
"Well, that's what it tastes like. In the past, when I was cooking with my sister-in-law, I always felt that the taste of tea was a little lighter. If you add some fruit, you won't be able to cook the fruit." Han Beiqing sighed regretfully, and later put aside the milk tea matter because she was busy.
Unexpectedly, the eldest aunt Zhou took it to heart and silently came up with this formula.
"If you like it, if you like. You said that with fruits, I tried it with Northern Zhou oranges. Boiling the milk in boiled orange water does have a light orange flavor on the taste. It's just that your uncle and I think it's weird."
Zhou's face was silly, like a child who had done something wrong.
"Have you tasted the orange milk for He'er? If a kid of his age likes it, that's fine."
Han Beiqing couldn't help but glance at Xijian, although he didn't see his little nephew, but the smile on his face couldn't stop blooming.
"That little one, everything you eat tastes good. It's sweet, it's weird." When Zhou talked about his little grandson, his face was also irrepressibly gentle.
"That's it, the orange milk tea is decided, if it has a fruity flavor in the future, you can let He'er taste it. It's just that children don't drink tea, otherwise they won't be able to sleep."
With a word, Han Beiqing threw the milk tea business to his aunt.
Calm down and start asking her about the past two days: "Auntie, can you send New Year's gifts in the house these two days?"
"I sent it, and I sent a lot of it. But what happened?" When Zhou saw Han Beiqing asking, he knew that there must be something wrong with this year's ceremony.
"The New Year's gifts for each family and the people in the house, I let Han Mao and his family do it."
After Han Beiqing finished speaking, Zhou had an expression of eating shit.
Yuan Erniang, who was obedient in the west, couldn't sit still, and hurriedly got down from the kang. Hurriedly walked to the east, lifted the curtain and whispered, "My mother doesn't know about the trouble in the house, I'll tell my sister."
Han Beiqing has always been generous and careless, he just wrote a gift list for people to give, and there was no time for the others to take care of.
"The gifts from outside are sent door-to-door by Holly. There is Holly staring, our people's things, Han Mao doesn't dare to make them too ugly."
Yuan Erniang told Han Beiqing that this Han Mao is still a bit of a brain. The things sent to various houses in Huaining County were prepared in accordance with Han Beiqing's requirements. It's just that the quotation is inflated by forty percent. When the bookkeepers came to settle the bill, Holly settled the payment without blinking.
Han Mao saw that Holly was so careless, so he let go of his courage. The New Year's goods in the house are not only inflated by double the price, but also mixed up many times. The benefits prepared for the next people become more varied.
"If you don't come today, I'm going to look for you after dinner." Saying that, Yuan Erniang took a small box, opened the box and handed it to Han Beiqing.
Han Beiqing looked at the small box puzzled: "What does this mean?"
"This is the rice you gave to your subordinates, you can see for yourself, it is old rice that has accumulated for many years, you take a closer look, it is still wormed and moldy."
Although Han Beiqing did not have the conditions to buy high-quality rice for everyone, it did not reach the level of moldy rice. This is not something that the owner should have sent, she ate people to death in one fell swoop, but what should I do?
"He didn't just trade shoddy, he traded moldy rice for rice!"
