Chapter 17: The Valley of Forgotten Sorrows (2)

After a while, breakfast was ready and a table was filled, steamed buns, all kinds of dim sum with white porridge made people's appetite move and salivate.

Li Zhongqing was in a coma for ten days, and every meal every day was white porridge, and he was already hungry, and he didn't care about any politeness and image, so he picked up a big bun and gnawed it desperately. Su Qian saw that there was another disgust for him in his heart.

"Rude. ”

Her words seemed to have an indescribable magic to him, and he stopped halfway through the bun.

Granny Su glared at Su Qian and didn't say anything, and said to Li Zhongqing: "Benefactor, you're welcome, please eat as much as you want, there are still in the kitchen." Zhong Qing secretly glanced at Su Qi a few times, and seeing that she didn't have any special reaction, she ate it quickly.

Su Mo served him a bowl of white porridge, and she said, "Brother Xiao Li eat slowly, don't worry, I made more today." Li Zhongqing nodded while eating. Su Mo said with a smile: "Although it is not as good as the products in the store outside, I think it should be able to be imported." She was talking about Yin Xun's steamed bun shop.

Li Zhongqing said: "Well, it tastes great. ”

Su Qi said: "Eat more if it's delicious, eat as much as possible, just don't choke to death." ”

"Sister Qi is talking more and more like Uncle Shi. Su Shao said: "Xiao Li, you are awesome, I am so old and rarely see my sister talk to people like this, you can be regarded as the first to come out on top, amazing." ”

Su Qi said: "I don't have the ability of my uncle. ”

Granny Su said: "Eat without words, sleep without speaking." Have you all forgotten?"

There is a steamed bun shop called "Meiman" here, which is Yin Xun's ancestral family business, he is a young owner, and the key is that he is also one who likes Su Qi. Li Zhongqing didn't know that there was such a rival in love, he only cared about eating, and he would count it when he was full. Su Qian was very sensitive to her little sister Su Mo's words, she looked at her sister, Su Mo glanced at Zhong Qing and seemed to realize her sister's thoughts, she was not good at saying anything, and silently served porridge and water to everyone.

Granny Su said, "Xiao Qian, what's wrong? Don't you have an appetite?" Su Qian didn't want to show too much, so she casually said something perfunctory.

Granny Su introduced the members of the family to Li Zhongqing, in addition to herself and Su Shi, there were only the three sisters of Su Qi, a total of five members of the family

After the meal, Su Shi and Su Shao went to the store to open a shop, and Su Qi helped Su Mo clean up the dishes and chopsticks. Li Zhongqing asked Granny Su, "Why did the whole family go out early in the morning?" Granny Su said: "It's just that it rained heavily a few days ago, and the spring water blocked the pipes with debris and affected the domestic water." Therefore, the family went up the mountain to repair. It turned out that Granny Su and her sisters used bamboo as a pipe to divert mountain springs to their homes for domestic water, saving a lot of trouble with water.

Li Zhongqing hurriedly said, "I'll help next time." "I wonder if this is considered to be a casual offering, either a traitor or a thief?

Su Qi said while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "You, hmph, it's very good if you don't help." "She's a quick talker and can sometimes ignore the feelings of others. Granny Su said, "Qian'er, how many times have I said it? Then he said to Zhong Qing: "The old body is not strictly disciplined, don't be surprised by the benefactor, Qi'er is straightforward and has no malice, just don't take it to heart." Zhong Qing hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay." Qi'er, she's very good......" As she spoke, her voice became smaller and quieter, and she even blushed when she said the word "Qi'er". Su Qi said, "Don't scream nonsense! Who are you, who is you?" Her reaction and speed of speech were very fast, and Zhong Qing gradually lowered her head after hearing this.

Granny Su didn't want to blame her daughter in front of outsiders, after all, she was her own heart. She also knew Li Zhongqing's intentions, so she had to explain: "It's just that the old man spoils her too much, and it's okay to call her 'Sister Qi' in the future?"

Li Zhongqing nodded as he listened.

Granny Su asked again: "The old man has the courage to call his benefactor Xiao Li, I don't know what it means?"

Li Zhongqing nodded again.

At this time, Xiao Yao came out of nowhere, he danced in the air, and said gloatingly: "Good scolding, this bastard thing is stinky and shameless, stinky and shameless......" After that, he stuck out his tongue at Zhong Qing, made a grimace, and said innocently: "Who let you eat other people's bodies, bastard! Stinky and shameless! Deserve it!" Su Qian was amused by Xiao Yao's words, picked up the cleaned dishes and chopsticks and walked into the kitchen.

Li Zhongqing had no impression of Xiao Yao's rescue, he asked, "Granny Su, what is he?" Xiao Yao said: "Hmph! Ungrateful thing! I won't talk to you!" He flew behind Granny Su, deliberately not letting Zhong Qing see it, and from time to time secretly showed half of his head and secretly glanced at the "bastard".

Granny Su said, "The little taro is with you. I really can't remember it at all. Li Zhongqing shook his head and said, "I can't remember." "When I met Xiao Yao, he was already unconscious, and it was normal to have no impression.

Xiao Yao flew out from behind Granny Su and shouted, "Ungrateful." He flew back and hid.

After chatting for a while, Granny Su called Su Qi over, and she said: "Qi'er, today is the market period, don't go anywhere, take Xiao Li to join in the excitement and move your muscles and bones by the way." Su Qi said with a look of embarrassment: "Take him?" Granny Su suddenly said with a serious face: "What's wrong?" Su Qi couldn't push it, so she had to give a perfunctory "oh". Walking into the kitchen, she said to Su Mo so and so.

Su Mo said: "Sister Qi, just take him around, is it really that difficult?" Su Qian took out a sachet and stuffed it into her sister's hand, she said: "My sister's happiness is all in Xiao Mo's hands." Food, drink, and play are all here, and it's enough! If it's not enough, trouble my sister to pay it in advance, and then pay it back when my sister has money. These savings are the reward for helping her brother and sister-in-law in the store, and she has saved them for many years, and this time she has worked hard to escape the "kindness" of her adoptive mother.

Su Mo said: "Sister Qi, it's not a matter of money, it's you who my mother-in-law ordered." Su Qian put on a pleading expression, and she said, "Xiao Mo...... Do you want to push me into the fire pit like my mother-in-law......"

Su Mo said: "The fire pit, no catastrophe, sister, it's not that serious, why don't you just go shopping and have a look, how can you say it like this." ”

"No matter how serious it is!" Su Qian said, "I don't want to go shopping with him, in case ...... Hey! In short, I can't imagine, Xiaomo, my good sister, sister, please. ”

Su Mo had no choice but to agree.

Su Qi said: "And you, no matter what, don't be so embarrassed by that stinky mind, you know?"

Su Mo nodded.

Su Qian took Li Zhongqing and left the house and walked down the mountain.

The two didn't say anything along the way, and Li Zhongqing's eyes swept towards Su Qi from time to time, but he was embarrassed to make eye contact with her. Whenever Su Qi looked at him, he always withdrew his gaze, like a thief.

After half an hour's journey, Su Qi took Li Zhongqing to the foot of the mountain, and she said, "Oh, it's too bad! I forgot to bring something, I want to go back." Are you waiting for me here?" Seeing Li Zhongqing nodding, Su Qian walked away. At the moment, he did not know that he had been released.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Su Mo appeared, and she explained, "Brother Xiaoli, Sister Qi has something to do. She asked me to take you around. Zhong Qing's mood fell to the bottom after hearing this, and he wanted to go home, but he didn't want to disappoint the beauty. After all, Su Mo was the first woman Li Zhongqing to chat with him after coming to this time and space.

Su Mo also seemed to see a little way. However, she didn't say anything. It's just that she stays at home all the time and rarely has the opportunity to go shopping. It's rare to have such an opportunity today, and my sister is willing to sponsor it, how can she miss it?

Walking on the field path, Li Zhongqing looked around and found that the terrain here was a valley, and the mountains just surrounded the village in the middle, forming a natural barrier, in other words, an easy place to defend and difficult to attack. He asked, "What's the name of this place?" Su Mo said, "This place is called Forget Worry Valley, also known as Fruity Valley." Whenever the wild fruits on the mountain are ripe, there will be bursts of fresh fruity aroma, and the fragrant smell is different and lasting. It is said that the fruity aroma can make people feel good and forget their troubles, hence the name. ”

Li Zhongqing said: "Oh. I see. Who took it? Such a good name. ”

Su Mo said: "The sages who lived here. ”

Three children flying kites came in front of them, the leader pulled the kite and ran in front, and the other two chased behind.

The children stopped when they walked in front of Su Mo, and the child led by them said, "Sister Xiaomo, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Hello!"

"Hello Sister Mo!"

Su Mowaner said, "Hello everyone, little black, I haven't seen you for a while, and it seems that you have grown taller again." ”

"Well, I eat a lot and naturally grow taller. The little black man said, "Who is he?"

"I haven't seen it. ”

"Sister Xiaomo, is he your father-in-law?"

"How so?"

"How not?"

"He looks like a bad guy, Sister Mo won't like bad guys, no, definitely not. ”

Children are innocent and not afraid of strangers at all.

Su Mo said: "In the mountains and wilderness, children don't know how to count etiquette, don't be surprised, Brother Xiaoli." ”

"It's fine. ”

Su Mo explained: "He's a guest of our house, and he's from outside. ”

The little black man asked, "From outside, where people live?"

Su Mo said, "That's right. ”

The little black man asked again, "What's your name?"

"Li Zhongqing. ”

The little black didn't say anything more, and continued to fly the kite with the other two children.

Li Zhongqing felt strange in his heart, he thought: Where do people live? Isn't this a place where people live? When they were in the Taoist temple, some Taoist priests called Sister Qi and them Kanjing, and some even called them demons. Isn't Kan Jing just a rat spirit, how can such a beautiful girl be a goblin? He thought about it, glanced at Su Mo, and then at the three children, he thought: No matter. I like Sister Qi, even if she is really a goblin, I will not change.

Su Mo led Zhong Qing to the village, and briefly introduced some customs and customs of Fruity Valley to him along the way.

Passing through the village to the market, hearing all kinds of shouting and seeing all kinds of pedestrians, the vibrant atmosphere can always make people let go of the hustle and bustle in their hearts. The streets are lined with stalls, some selling sweets, some selling groceries, some selling grain and oil, some selling clothing, and some selling food...... There are all kinds of things, everything, so it's not lively.

Su Mo's heart blossomed, she didn't care about whether men and women gave or not, she took Li Zhongqing's hand and took him to a stall selling flour dolls, she said: "Little Brother Li, do you see, is it cute?" Li Zhongqing said fascinatedly: "Cute." "He's grown so big, he hasn't touched a girl's hand yet, and there's an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Elf Taro said happily, "Buy, buy, buy!"

Relatively speaking, Su Mo is much simpler, she doesn't think about what she has or doesn't have, and she only cares about playing. Look here, walk there, and don't feel the passage of time at all.

"Brother Xiao Li, are you hungry?" Su Mo said, "If you're not hungry, let's go shopping again, okay?"

"I'm not hungry, as long as you're happy. Li Zhongqing was holding a few flour dolls, a few strings of sugar gourds, and a few packets of rouge gouache in his hands...... It's all Su Mo's things, and he inadvertently became her porter, he loves the house and Wu, is willing, and has no hesitation......

Su Mo has a high appearance value, and the return rate is high. This time, walking on the street with the elf and Li Zhongqing, the return rate was close to 100%. By the time he came to Grace Tina, he was already overloaded, and the big bags of things were set aside like a hill. The second sister, Su Shao, said with a smile: "I bought so much." Su Mo whispered to the second sister, and told the eldest sister about hiring her as a tour guide, and the second sister laughed even more happily after hearing it. Su Mo was very careful, for fear that her adoptive mother would know about the eldest sister's stealing of the dragon and the phoenix, so she put all the favorites she bought in the second sister's store, and had the opportunity to take them home slowly.

A woman's desire to shop can sometimes really be described as "terrible". If it weren't for Su Qian's sake, I don't know if Li Zhongqing would be willing to be a slave to Su Mo like this.
