Chapter 367: A Whim
"Don't look at me like that, I'm not going to blind myself." Ding Xuewei seemed to be able to see through Ding Lao Wu's sentence.
Ding Lao Wu, who couldn't get rid of his selfishness, lowered his eyes suddenly: "What Dad said is really good, the biggest regret of the Ding family should be that you are not a male baby!" โ
"So, we can only shape the turtle shell and protect ourselves!" Ding Xue got off the donkey slightly down the slope.
"Fifth uncle, have you ever thought that there may be a second person like me in the Ding family?" She asked with a grim expression.
Ding Lao Wu's eyes were speechless.
I've seen self-righteousness, but she's never seen one who feels so good about herself that she bursts.
Since then, Ding Xuewei will not talk nonsense.
Suddenly, she approached Ding Lao Wu.
"Fifth uncle, let's cooperate, I use my smart mind, and you use your man's advantage. Let's work hard, look back, our children and grandchildren definitely don't need to be as aggrieved as us! โ
"You... Not ashamed? Ding Lao Wu made a big red face.
Ding Xuewei said business, but she didn't want his little innocence to be delayed.
"Fifth Uncle can't put his mind on important words?"
Ding Lao Wu was scolded speechless.
Ding Xuewei waited for him to answer, looked at him and said no more.
For a long time, when he thought that he might not understand, he nodded.
Ding Lao Wu was shocked by the audacity of his eldest niece, but he also had to admit that this was a very good, good proposal that people couldn't refuse.
This kind of feeling that you can show your strength but have to be restrained due to your own lack of conditions is too bad!
Ding Xue is slightly smart, much smarter than himself, Ding Lao Wu has long recognized the reality, when the thinking is corrected, the goal is naturally clear.
"It's a pleasure to work with." Ding Xuewei stretched out her hand.
Ding Lao Wu was inexplicable.
Ding Xuewei didn't care if he understood or not, grabbed his hand and forcibly shook his hand.
"It's a pleasure to work with." She said again.
Ding Lao Wu, who just wanted to get rid of people, suddenly suspected that this was the code of the eldest niece.
After meditating for a few seconds, he shook it back: "Happy cooperation." โ
Ding Lao and the fourth brothers in the car in front of them didn't know that their younger brothers and nieces in the car behind them didn't know that they had made a decision to jointly develop the Ding family's forces, and the two chatted about the current situation.
When the carriage entered another town and came to one of the few inns in the town, Ding Lao Er lifted the curtain and shouted to stop the carriage.
In this world, there are two kinds of institutions that can accommodate pedestrians and travelers to rest at night, one is a post house and the other is an inn.
The inn is an official organization, the main job is to usher in the official errands sent to all walks of life, to provide these people with accommodation, horse change, and other services, is a non-profit organization, the inn does not have free treatment for civil servants, not to mention the high-cost business of changing horses, the reception staff is oriented to the general public.
Compared with the inn, the safety of the post station is higher, but unfortunately, the Ding family is not qualified to stay!
In the past year, although Ding Xuewei has never lived in an inn, she is quite familiar with its business model.
The inn and the restaurant are operated separately, just like the difference between the general hotel and the luxury star hotel in real time, the guest house, whether it is the upper room, the general room or the lower room, all need to go out of the store to forage for food, and the inn does not provide.
The small courtyard is different, a small courtyard room five or six to a dozen range, the yard not only has a small door to improve security, a more quiet and comfortable rest environment, but also a small kitchen that can make simple meals, do not want to go out to find food, and the store can buy a little rice oil to open the stove, but the store sells a little higher than the general grain and oil store.
Bazhen Lou is rare to see in various prefectures, counties, and towns, and she really doesn't dare to compliment the food made by ordinary small shops.
In her luggage, there were not only clothes, but also pots and bowls of rice and noodles.
After arranging for the two grooms to unload the car and feed the horses, the attendants took care of Ding Laosi, and after moving the luggage into his room, Ding Xuewei went to the kitchen, and when Ding Lao Wu and Ding Lao and the two brothers came over, the water was already boiling.
"Second uncle, light the small stove and cook a thin soybean flour, fifth uncle, look at the stove fire here."
Ding Xue has a good idea in her heart, things are done in an orderly manner, Ding Lao Er sees her in good order, Ding Lao Wu knows her ability, she doesn't say anything, listen to her arrangement, one burns the fire, and the other lights the fire to cook thin bean flour.
When Ding Xuewei asked for a small courtyard and said that he had brought food, the Ding brothers knew that there would be no bad food along the way, but when Ding Xuewei opened the inconspicuous small jar and poured out a jar of braised pork, his eyes were still straight.
A year ago, whether the things that were eaten in the mouth were fresh or dry, the brothers would definitely not be able to tell the difference, but now, not to mention the dishes stewed out of the pot, that is, the fresh meat and vegetables have been put for a few days, and the brothers have a good idea of what it should taste like.
Ding Xuewei took out this jar of braised pork, the meat quality is not only fresh, but its cooking technology is also unique.
The problem is that she didn't go to Bazhen Tower yesterday!
"Uncle Wu asked someone to bring me some meat last evening, thinking that I would stew it when I went out today." Ding Xue's face was not red, and she lied without panting: "After stewing yesterday, it was chilled with ice, and it is also stored with ice today, but the taste has not changed." โ
In fact, this braised pork was taken out of the space kitchen, although the things in the space will not be bad, but she can take it out for the Ding family to taste not much.
They are sincere to her, and she naturally treats each other sincerely, and every time she enters the space to steal food, she feels empty-hearted.
"The ice is melting, we have to eat it all today."
Chen Yu Zhuangzi has pigs on it, and the shopkeeper Wu often thinks about her when he has any fresh ingredients, and it is not unusual to send meat in the evening.
The doubts in the hearts of the Ding brothers all dissipated.
staring at at the meat that was at least seven or eight catties, his eyes were full of complexity.
"Didn't bring saltpeter?" Ding Lao Wu quipped.
Ding Xue stared at him for a few seconds, with a look of regret: "Why didn't I think of it!" โ
The corners of Ding Laowu's mouth twitched, and he didn't want to watch her play anymore, but Ding Laowu's eyes were full of guilt.
The children have a piece of meat and try to let their brothers eat it, but their brothers let the children suffer so much!
Ding Xuewei is very satisfied with several uncles, otherwise there would be no braised pork today, naturally, she can't see the sadness in Ding Laoer's eyes.
"Second uncle, how long does it take for Ming'er to rush? Do you need to prepare lunch in the morning? I brought a lot of noodles, do you mean we're going to pancake or boil noodles in the morning? โ
She hasn't walked this road, and she can't count how many roads she's driven today.
Ding Laoer's originally dull mood was suddenly deviated by her: "It's close to the city, Ming'er has an hour at most, and I don't know if there is firewood at home, Ming'er simply bakes cakes in the morning, make more, and don't have to toss at noon." โ
During the flood last year, Ning County bore the brunt, and then Chunping, Jiangdong and Wushan counties, which were relatively close to the river.
The people in the disaster area have poor purchasing power, and if they want to pull down the price of food, it is the most stupid way to go to the disaster area, because although the caravan has been in Fengcheng Mansion in recent months, they have not gone through Ning County, which is the most seriously affected by the disaster, and now, they have been away for nearly a year, and they still don't know what the situation is at home!
He has never shown up in Ning County at all, so Ding Laosi needs to come to this trip!
"Then Ming'er, should we go directly into the city, or will we store the carriage outside the city and then enter the city?"
โยทยทยท I'll ask your fourth uncle later. Ding Lao Er thought about it, but still felt that this matter had to be decided by his younger brother.
It's going to be tested, of course, there can't be any flaws, Ding Laosi doesn't just mean to store the carriage outside the city, they also need to dress up deliberately.
Ding Xuewei knew that he was scared by Xiao Li and Wang, but he didn't expect to be so scared.
As soon as the action of chopping rice stopped, he kindly asked, "Do you want me to patch some patches for everyone?" โ
โยทยทยท Or, one person fights two? Ding Laosi looked at the second brother very excitedly.
Ding Lao Er, who had already walked into the city by his brothers, smeared some ash on his face and body, had to mess up his hair, and the whole person wanted to show that his life was not good, embarrassed and embarrassed, and so on, raised his hand and poked Ding Xuewei directly: "I haven't been picked up with a barricade, want to try?" โ
"Uh~ That's it." Ding Xue sneered slightly.
It's so graphic!
A roar every day, begging for tickets, asking for collections...
