Seeing Sister Zhou away, the four of them continued to eat.

Chunhong had heard that Xiaoshi's mother had remarried, but she didn't know where she had remarried. When I saw it today, I realized that his mother was also in the city.

She saw that the little stone lady was wearing clothes made of good fabric, and her mouth was "my master", she was a little curious, and asked:

"Little Stone, who did your mother remarry?"

Xiaoshi glanced at her: "You eat a bowl of snake meat, and I will tell you." ”

Several people knew that Chunhong didn't dare to eat snakes, and Xiaoshi didn't want to say it.

Chunhong also glanced at him: "I don't want to say it." ”

Fang Yu poured wine for Chen Xiao. At this time, his face was like a flower.

Finally hugged! Chen Xiao didn't struggle just now, let him hold him, and the relationship between the two of them was one step closer.

"You're smiling like a rotten tomato." Chen Xiao glanced at him with disgust, knowing what he was laughing at.

She was sure in her heart: let's start falling in love!

"Rotten Tomatoes?" Fang Yu didn't know what Rotten Tomatoes looked like.

"Tomatoes, also from northern Montenegro." Chen Xiao said pointedly.

"Oh!" Fang Yu instantly understood and asked, "I remember that you seem to have tomato seeds too, why don't you take them out and plant them?" ”

"There's no place to plant in the yard."

Fang Yu didn't ask again. He knew that Chen Xiao was testing him, testing whether he was a good helper.

Chunhong looked at the two of them and asked and answered, and her tone was very strange.

Chen Xiao's earliest chili peppers were brought back from outside, saying that they were bought on the street.

Chunhong had never seen chili peppers, so she asked a few more words, and Fang Yu told her not to ask, it was rare and strange.

Later, Zhang Lizheng came to the courtyard, and Chen Xiao told him that she had brought the chili pepper from Xiling. Fang Yu was also helping her speak. Chunhong wondered: Didn't she buy the chili pepper on the street?

Later, many things Chunhong felt very strange. But as long as she asked, Fang Yu reprimanded her. She was not allowed to ask, she was not allowed to tell anyone.

Chunhong is a smart person, and these "eccentrics" do not bring her harm, but benefits. So she didn't ask or talk, and went along with what they said.

"Sister, what do you want to do when you inquire about the material on the ball?" Little Stone asked as he ate.

"That layer of material is very useful! It can be made into a lot of things. ”

"What can it be made of?"

"You can make gloves, soles, tires, and so on, many things."

Gloves, soles, small stones know, but what are tires?

Fang Yu saw that he seemed to be asking again, and said, "Don't ask if you don't understand." Anyway, that thing works a lot. ”

Xiaoshi was dazed: "I just don't understand and ask!" "Don't ask if you don't understand.

Fang Yu had a serious face: "That thing is the key to making money in the future, don't let others know." If we let others know and get ahead of the curve, we will lose out on business opportunities. ”

Xiao Shi said: "But Gao Xiang already knows that thing." He bought the ball, and perhaps he had already found a business opportunity. ”

Chen Xiaodao: "That ball is just the coarsest application of rubber. Later, it can also change form and create something more valuable. ”

Little Stone: "Maybe they're already doing it." ”

Chen Xiao thought about it, latex is coagulated with acid to make rubber, and they may have been studying the application of this step. But there are no rubber products here, which means that nothing has been made. Maybe they didn't even see the true value of rubber.

Fang Yudao: "When the Zhou family asks clearly, we will go to the local area to have a look." ”

He has always wanted to be alone with Chen Xiao, if it weren't for the fact that he needed someone to work to open a restaurant, he really wanted to drive away Chunhong and Xiaoshi.

"You need money to travel far away!" Chen Xiao sighed.

Speaking of going out for a long journey, Fang Yu suddenly thought of identity documents. They don't have identity papers, and they may be in trouble when they go far away.

"Little Stone, do you know how to make an identity document?" Fang Yu asked.

Xiao Shi knew that the two of them had no identity documents, and the rental contract of the snack restaurant and the official record were all done in the name of Chunhong.

He said: "With your relationship with Uncle Zhang, just go to their village to buy a piece of land, build a house, and settle in their village." ”

Fang Yu frowned. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about it that way, but he didn't want to settle in the village.

Chen Xiaodao: "We don't have money now!" ”

Buying a piece of land and building a house will cost thousands of taels of silver, to say the least. Now they only have a hundred taels in their hands. This also has to be kept to buy the peppers planted by Uncle Zhang and open a new restaurant. The primitive accumulation stage of wealth is the slowest, and when you have the first pot of gold, it will be relatively easy later.

She also thought about selling one or two modern items to complete the primitive accumulation at once. However, there are hidden dangers.

Forget it, don't think about getting rich all at once. At that time, my grandmother also opened a small restaurant for many years, and it developed step by step.

She won't get old anyway. Time seemed to her to stand still.

Thinking of this, she looked at Fang Yu with a sympathetic look in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Fang Yu asked.

"I'm thinking, what if one day you're old and I'm not old?"

Fang Yu was puzzled, not understanding what he meant. Thinking of his age, he asked:

"You think I'm too old?"

Fang is twenty-one years old and unmarried. Shen Feng, who is the same age as him, has sons who are six years old.

Shen Feng belonged to the early marriage. When his father and brother died in an accident, Aunt Shen was worried that the Shen family would be doomed, so after keeping filial piety, she immediately let her son marry. He was not yet fifteen years old at the time, and was about the same size as Little Stone is now.

"It's not that I think you're old, it's that I think about the future."

For Chen Xiao, twenty-one is small. She has the feeling that an old cow eats tender grass, which is embarrassing. But as long as she doesn't say it, others don't know how big she really is.

"You've thought about the future?" Fang Yu smiled sheepishly.

"If you don't look old......," Chen Xiao wanted to say, can I get a new one? But I'm embarrassed to say.

"I will take good care of it and strive to be worthy of you forever."

Fang Yu said as he took her hand and stroked her white and delicate slender jade fingers.

"It's like your hands, so well maintained."

Now he knows that Chen Xiao is working, washing and cooking, digging the ground, and her hands are so well maintained, just like a pair of hands that don't do rough work.

Chen Xiao's hands are tender, firstly, because of her physique, and secondly, she does pay attention to maintenance.

Fang Yu is actually "maintaining". He lies on a rocking chair every day and cultivates, drinking "grass leaf tea", just to cultivate to the Divine Mystery Realm as soon as possible. When he arrives at Shenxuan, his physique will change completely, and his appearance will not change.

The same appearance is only one aspect, and there is another purpose for cultivating him.

Chen Xiao withdrew his hand: "Don't take advantage of me when you get an opportunity." ”

Fang Yu looked at her with a smile, smiling but not speaking.

……

On the second day, Zhou Huiqin sent someone to bring them a snake, which weighed more than four catties. There were also four towels.

Chen Xiao got the towel and was very surprised: "There are also towels here?" ”

In her room, she had a cloth towel to wipe her face, but she barely used it. She goes back to sleep in the space every night, bathes and washes her face in the space, and there are so many towels in the space.

"It's hard to buy from outside." Xiao Shi's expression was indifferent, but his tone was a little proud: "These are all woven by my mother and their workshop, and they are all sent to the capital or sold to the Xia Kingdom." ”

Fang Yu was not too surprised when he saw the towel. He used a towel in Xiling.

"No wonder I haven't seen it at the bazaar!" Chen Xiao found that her understanding of the world was far from enough.

Chunhong got the towel and was very happy. This can be left for the younger brother as a dowry.

When people saw that they could take out a towel, they knew that they were not ordinary people.
