"How long will it take?"

"I'm afraid it's going to take half a month, and I have to dig up the ground."

The master craftsman said, Su Liuye thought that there was no problem and agreed, and she just asked the craftsman to decorate the store.

The whole project will take a month at the earliest. At that time, it was going to be the New Year, and if it snowed, the time would have to be postponed a little more.

Su Liuye told Old Man Lu all this, but the old man didn't say anything, "Anyway, you just need to help me get the cellar right, you can toss these things." ”

"Then I'll be tired of the old gentleman." Su Liuye said with a smile. She glanced at the jars in the yard, some were large, some were small, and almost the whole yard was stained.

Although she didn't open it to see, just standing here, she could smell a sour smell and choke her nose slightly itching.

No wonder the surrounding residents can't stand the smell.

It's just that Old Man Lu doesn't have a good relationship with her, and he probably won't tell her what is in the jar.

Su Liuye didn't want to ask, so he told the craftsman to build the cellar, and at the same time rented a house nearby so that he could go back and rest.

Xiao Yun's house is too far away from here, if it closes too late, they will be too tired to go back to rest, not to mention, it will snow in Jingdong in winter, so it will be much more convenient to rent a house nearby.

After taking care of the matter here, Su Liuye and Qin Lian returned to the house, and Uncle Zhou had already prepared a meal for them.

Su Liuye asked, "Uncle Zhou, hasn't my husband come back these days?" ”

"Yes, madam, Mr. Chu, I'm afraid they won't come back in a few days, is there something wrong with madam?"

"No, I'm just asking."

Su Liuye sighed lightly.

After coming to the capital, she and Chu Yan separated, and she didn't know what Chu Yan and Xiao Yun were doing.

"Madame can always command me if she needs anything."

After Zhou Bo finished speaking, he went out.

Qin Lian looked away and asked Su Liuye in a low voice, "Ah Liu, is there something wrong with you?" ”

"No, I just want to know what Chu Yan is doing, but Uncle Zhou doesn't seem to know either."

"Aliu...... Don't you and Brother Chu Chu have a round house yet? When she said these words, Qin Lian lowered her voice so as not to be heard by others.

Su Liuye's cheeks flushed, and she hurriedly said, "Lianlian, why are you asking me this?" ”

"I just think that you and Brother Chu are not like an ordinary couple." Qin Lian was entangled, "Since you started to go to the capital, I found that you don't know a lot of things about Brother Chu, what kind of husband and wife are this?" Didn't you tell me before that you and Brother Chu don't have a round house yet, I think it's strange. ”

"I ......" Su Liuye nodded hesitantly, these things are not a matter of holding back in her heart, "I also told me that I want to come to the capital this time, as for what they are going to do, I don't know." I also asked Brother Chu before, but he didn't tell me. ”

Qin Lian's eyes flickered, and she lowered her voice, "Ah Liu, did you say that Brother Chu still has a woman outside?" ”

Su Liuye frowned.

Worried that she would be uncomfortable, Qin Lian hurriedly added, "Brother Chu is good-looking, now that there is Lord Xiao who follows the yamen, there will definitely be many women staring at Brother Chu!" Aliu, you want a snack! “

Su Liuye listened to her words, and then thought of Ye Yunniang of the Rejuvenation Hall, and her heart was even more melancholy.

"Aliu, what's wrong with you? Could it be that Brother Chu really has other women outside, right? ”

Qin Lian was frightened by her expression.

Su Liuye hurriedly came back to her senses, "No, Lianlian, don't think about it, it's me and Chu Yan'......" She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say.

She could feel that Chu Yan had a lot of things to hide from her, but she had no reason to ask, she and Chu Yan were not real husband and wife after all.

"Lianlian, don't think about this, we still have a lot of things to do."

Su Liuye deliberately opened the topic.

Looking at the forbearance in her eyes, Qin Lian was a little angry, but Su Liuye didn't want to say more, and she didn't want to pestering to ask, she only secretly felt that Chu Yan really didn't know how to cherish it! With such a good lady, she didn't even hurry up to round the house!

If Su Liuye was snatched away, he probably wouldn't have time to regret it!

After the meal, Su Liuye and Qin Lian went to work separately, and Xiao Wu followed Su Liuye, after all, Su Xin's goal was Su Liuye, and Qin Lian was still very safe.

She went to the carpenter to order a "cyclamen" plaque, which they would use in their shop in the future.

Su Liuye wanted to go back and stare at the decoration.

Because of the cumbersome process, coupled with the cold weather, occasionally began to snow, delaying the progress of the project, until the first half of the New Year, the store was renovated, but the cellar in the yard was shelved because of the snow too much, and the stone had not been transported.

Seeing that a big hole was dug out of the yard, Su Liuye also knew that it would be impossible to open in time for the New Year.

She simply went to the street to buy some fresh ingredients, and asked for some sour bamboo shoots from Old Man Lu, planning to make a sour bamboo shoot hot pot.

She also went in and out of the store a lot of times, and after chatting with Old Man Lu for a few words, she realized that his jar contained sauerkraut and pickles.

Su Liuye asked carefully, and found that there were still sour bamboo shoots, so she immediately thought of the sour bamboo shoot hot pot, so she asked Old Man Lu to buy some sour bamboo shoots for her.

Zhoujia Village and Luoxi Town are not places where there are bamboo shoots, and even if there are very few, they are usually eaten by the people at the foot of the mountain, like the capital, there are no bamboo shoots, and I don't know where Old Man Lu got it back, no wonder it is so precious that it is placed there, and it is easy not to show it to others.

Su Liuye washed the ingredients she bought back and chased everything to the good. Before she went out this morning, she boiled chicken soup, used chicken soup as a soup base, added bamboo shoot acid to it, and then prepared the dipping sauce, and a pot of hot pot gurgling was served on the table.

"Lianlian, Grandpa Lu, come and taste the taste of this sour bamboo shoot hot pot."

"It smells so good! Ah Liu, is this hot pot really made from those sour bamboo shoots just now? Why does it taste different? ”

"Of course."

The pickled sour bamboo shoots have a special taste, and those who like this taste will like it very much, and those who don't like it will want to gag a little.

Old man Lu looked at the boiling soup with a slightly deep expression. He picked up an iron spoon and filled himself with a bowl of soup, took a sip, and his eyes suddenly became more solemn, "What did you add to this soup?" ”

"No, Grandpa Lu, I didn't add anything. This is the chicken soup that was just boiled this morning, but the bamboo shoots were slightly sour with water to wash away some of the sourness. Sour bamboo shoots and chicken soup are originally a good pairing, and there is no need to put extra seasonings. ”

"How do you know? Have you eaten it before? Old man Lu stared at her, inexplicably a little serious.
