Chapter 101 She also has to take care of the rough guy in the family
Twenty taels is not a small amount, but the young lady didn't respond at all. Ning Yi looked at her, thinking she was greedy, and frowned slightly, "If the money is less, just add ten more taels."
"No matter how much money I give these days, I won't be able to go."
Su Yan still refused. She glanced at the man next to her out of the corner of her eye and said, "There is indeed something going on at home."
Ning Yi was silent for a moment, "How long will it take for you to be free?"
"Mid-April."
"Um."
Ning Yi thought of something, moved his feet and said: "I heard that you raised crabs, so you can take a look?"
Su Yan knew that he was not just here to teach her how to be a cook, "Yes, but it's a bit out of the way and the road is not easy to walk. I'm afraid you won't be used to it, boss."
"It's okay, just lead the way."
Ning Yi stood up, but for some reason Xiao Huang suddenly rushed up and roared twice, which startled him.
The shopkeeper immediately stood in front and shouted: "You damn dog, get out of here."
Su Yan quickly shouted: "Xiao Huang."
Xiao Huang immediately waggled his tail and ran to Qin An's side. Qin An glanced at it and did not scold it.
Still not in vain.
A group of four people went to the fields. The road was twisty and twisty, and Su Yan and Qin An were used to it.
When going down the hill, Qin An habitually went down first, then put his arm around Su Yan's waist and lifted her down with one hand.
Ning Yi walked forward without even looking at Ning Yi who was behind him.
Su Yan took a look, and after seeing them getting off the ridge, she trotted forward. The next moment, she held the man's hand and whispered softly: "Brother Qin."
She has never been in love, but she knows how to look at people's faces. It's obvious that Qin An is jealous.
I just don’t know where the raw Chinese vinegar comes from.
Thinking of this, a smile flashed across her eyes.
Qin An stiffened for a moment, looked down at her hand, then squeezed it back tightly, and relaxed his tight forehead.
He didn't know what he was afraid of, and the look in Ning Yi's eyes at Su Yan made him feel uneasy.
If he has thoughts about Su Yan, how can he compare with his brute strength...
He lowered his head and whispered: "What's wrong? Are you tired from walking?"
Su Yan smiled and shook her head, "No."
When they arrived at the crab pond, Ning Yi stood and watched for a long time. It was a hot day and many crabs crawled out.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but said: "There are so many crabs, little lady, no matter what happens today, I have to carry dozens of kilograms away."
"Okay, I'll go home later to get the buckets and pick up the big ones." Su Yan nodded in agreement.
Ning Yi took a few steps back and said with his hands behind his back: "I have collected all your crabs, but you can't sell them to others."
"The most taboo thing for businessmen is to sell two things for one thing."
Su Yan didn't think anything of it. Raising crabs was just an opportunity. If this thing sells well, there will definitely be more people raising crabs.
"Of course, we can do this, but you can't lower the price midway or choose other people's crabs."
"It's best to sign a contract about this."
Hearing this, Ning Yi took a look at Su Yan. The woman's pretty face and fox eyes were somewhat indifferent and shrewd.
"I will sign it with you when you get to the county seat."
He raised his head and glanced at the sky, and then said, "My little lady is good at cooking. Can we stay here for dinner at noon?"
Su Yan naturally did not refuse. When the time comes, she will sell food recipes. If she can get the approval of her boss, she will be able to make more money from the sales.
"Okay, you guys go back to the yard first. We'll be back as soon as we finish the dishes."
Su Yan turned to look at Qin An and motioned for the key to her. Qin An took out the key and handed it directly to the shopkeeper.
After a while, the shopkeeper and Ning Yi left. Su Yan and Qin An finished the dishes and went home.
There was no meat at home except bacon, so Su Yan planned to fry bacon, two vegetables, and a pimple soup.
Four dishes are enough for four people.
The shopkeeper was a little surprised when he saw Qin An, a tall and strong man, sitting in the yard sorting leeks. After all, this is what women do.
He asked: "Why haven't you hunted recently?"
Qin An didn't even raise his head, and said while arranging onions: "I'll go there in a while."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper said nothing. At this time, Su Yan in the kitchen shouted, "Brother Qin, come here and get the steamer. You put it too high."
Qin An immediately stood up and strode to the kitchen. When he saw the woman reaching for something, he walked in, reached out and took it easily, and put it on the stove.
"I'll put it down next time."
Su Yan washed the steamer neatly, and out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of Qin An's collar stuck in his neck, "Brother Qin, please fix the collar."
Qin An stretched out his hand to get his collar. He was probably a rough man, so he just did it a few times and it was done. Su Yan wiped her hands and stretched out her hand to get his collar, "Okay."
When she looked up and saw the man looking at her, she smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
His eyes fell on her cheeks, Qin An's throat rolled twice, and finally his wheat-colored cheeks turned slightly red, "I'm going to take care of the leeks."
It was not yet noon when the strong aroma of food came from Qin's house. Goudanzi stood at the door as he passed by and asked, "Sister, are you eating so early?"
Su Yan in the kitchen heard this and tilted her head and replied, "Yes, eldest sister, you are here just in time. Bring some bacon back to eat."
Goudan’s mother was too embarrassed to accept her, and she also saw the guests in the main room, “No, there are still a lot of dishes at home, thank you, sister.” After saying that, he walked away.
Main hall
Qin An laid out the food, and then went to the kitchen to wait for Su Yan to come over and eat together. Su Yan also wanted to get some pickled radish, "Brother Qin, eat quickly, I will come after cutting it."
Qin An didn't say anything, but he didn't leave either. He first took out the firewood from the stove and put it in the ashes to put it out. Then he poured warm water into a wooden basin and placed it next to Su Yan.
You can wash your hands after cutting.
Su Yan glanced at him, her eyebrows slightly curved, she reached out and twisted a piece of pickled radish and handed it to him, "It's delicious. Brother Qin, please try it."
Qin An lowered his head and opened his mouth to eat. Su Yan also ate one, which was sour and crispy.
The two of them didn't stay in the kitchen for long. After a while, they went out with pickled radish. Ning Yi was already using his chopsticks.
The shopkeeper was waiting for them.
Su Yan didn't take it to heart. There was a distinction between superiority and inferiority here. Naturally, a wealthy family like Ning Yi would not wait for others to eat.
"Eat it all, while it's hot."
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "It smells so good when I smell the dishes made by the little lady. I'm greedy when I smell it. There's still a lot of bacon. I'll buy two kilograms of it and give it to my family."
"Yes, let's eat first."
Su Yan sat next to Qin An and picked up a few fat pieces of bacon for him with her first chopsticks.
Qin An likes to eat this kind of meat.
She had just eaten two chopsticks of green vegetables, and there were a few pieces of lean meat separated from the fat meat in the bowl.
You can tell it's Qin An without even looking.
No words were spoken during the meal, but the two dogs were anxious and kept staring eagerly at Su Yan and Qin An at the door.
Since there was a guest today, naturally she couldn't divide them among them first. After the meal was finished, Su Yan scooped up the rice and mixed the leftovers to feed them.
Ning Yi stood up to leave before they finished their work. Before he left, he said to Su Yan: "If you are willing, you can come to my shop in the county and work as a cook for twenty taels of silver a month."
There was envy in the shopkeeper's eyes. The shop in the county town was much better than the one in the town, and many cooks wanted to go there.
He thought Su Yan would definitely agree, but the young woman declined politely, "The county town is too far from home."
She wants to make money, but she won't ignore the rough guy at home. If she is not at home, he will probably eat three meals a day.
As rough as it is.
Two people have to live together, otherwise it would be meaningless.
