Chapter 558 Treat (For Book Friends Jin Yiwei: Rong Rong's Birthday)
Zhou Lang went to the house next door to borrow a hoe, hoeed up the open space next to the utility room connected to the wall of Yan's house, and then planted all the flowers and plants in it.
Then he went to look for the precious honeysuckle, and was horrified to find that there was only one left.
Zhou Lang couldn't help shouting, "Aren't there two plants?"
Man Bao turned around and ran away with a guilty conscience, "I killed one of them."
Zhoulang was so angry that he treasured the remaining one even more. He took it directly back to the room and decided to buy a pottery pot today.
After Man Bao took a bath and changed his clothes, he slipped into the study. Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Lan were reading the article Bai Shanbao had written. They glanced at Man Bao coming in, so they waved and asked, "Where did you go?"
Man Bao ran up and said, "Sir, I have copied all the books. I was a little tired just now, so I went out for a walk."
Mr. Zhuang glanced at her clothes and frowned in confusion, "Have you changed your clothes?"
Man Bao chuckled, "I accidentally got it dirty."
Without thinking much, Mr. Zhuang handed her the topic Lan Cheng asked just now and said, "You also go and write two articles."
Manbao was stunned for a moment and said: "Sir, I don't want to take the imperial examination."
"Have you not read the books on the list? Try to do them, don't be lazy."
Man Bao took it and muttered: "But I haven't looked at it these past few days..."
Bai Shanbao smiled happily and whispered: "I can lend you the book to read again."
Man Bao looked at the title, snorted and turned around to leave.
The husband obviously wanted to make corrections on the spot, so how could he still have time for her to read slowly?
Manbao sat back in her seat, reviewing the questions in distress. The first question was okay, she still remembered the source and knew the meaning, but the second question looked familiar, but she completely forgot which book it came from, let alone
Written before and after...
Manbao spread out a piece of white paper in distress and decided to solve the first question first.
When Manbao finally answered both questions, it was almost dark.
Because of the rain, it got dark very quickly. Mr. Zhuang accepted her answer and nodded: "You go sell dinner. After Mr. Lan and I correct our homework, and after dinner, I will give you a lecture."
."
Obviously, there are extra classes tonight.
Man Bao and Bai Shanbao bowed their heads in response, and even Bai Erlang was a little depressed.
After leaving the study, Bai Erlang sighed: "I read books from morning to night. I feel like my brain is in chaos. I want to go home."
"Just be satisfied," Bai Shanbao said with his head drooped: "How many texts and homework do you do in a day? Look at Man Bao, then look at me, hum!"
Man Bao nodded, "That's right, I've read more books than you, let alone Shan Bao."
Then he turned to express sympathy to Bai Shanbao, "You are so pitiful."
Bai Shanbao said: "I just want the Fu Xue exam to come as soon as possible. It's best to take it tomorrow."
Whether it was a pass or a failure, he accepted it all.
When he was at home before, he felt that he had a lot of time to study. In addition to going to school, he not only had to do homework but also read extracurricular books in his spare time. He could only play for about an hour a day at most.
But now he felt that his life at home was so happy, and he could play for about an hour every day.
The three of them walked to the yard dejectedly. Zhou Lang raised his head from a corner of the yard and was shocked to realize that it was getting late, "Oh no, I forgot to cook rice and vegetables."
Bai Shanbao was instantly horrified, "No, it's okay, if you don't have time to play, you still have to eat the food cooked by you for dinner?"
Zhou Lang: "...What's wrong with my cooking? My cooking skills are the best among the six of us. If you have the ability, come and do it!"
Zhou Lang clapped his hands and stood up, saying: "We picked some particularly tender vegetables today, so I bought some meat when I went to buy a pottery pot in the afternoon, and we cooked and ate it ourselves for dinner."
Otherwise, the picked vegetables will be wasted.
Only then did Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang see the neat ridges of land at Zhou Lang's feet, and asked curiously: "Fourth brother, is this a dish?"
"Damn vegetables, have you ever seen vegetables that grow like this?" Zhou Lang said: "These are all flowers and plants that are full of treasures. Be careful when you play in the yard in the future, don't step on them."
Bai Shanbao immediately thought of it, looked at Manbao sideways, said a long "Oh——", and said with a half-smile: "So that's it, let me tell you, why are there fresh free vegetables to eat tonight?"
Bai Erlang was confused, "What does this look like?"
Bai Shanbao signaled him to go see the Yan family next door. Bai Erlang understood instantly and looked at Man Bao and said "Oh——".
The two of them said in unison: "You have to treat me!"
"Please, please," Manbao didn't really want to eat the food cooked by his fourth brother, so he turned to Zhou Lang and asked, "Fourth brother, what do you want to eat?"
Zhou Lang, who was about to refuse, immediately began to think deeply, and then said: "I want to eat the stewed chicken from Lao Zhao's house in the alley. The taste..."
Man Bao said: "I'll buy it."
"Then go quickly. It's getting dark now. I'm afraid they'll be sold out if it's late. Remember to ask them to give you a little more soup. I'll blanch the vegetables when you get them back. They're also delicious."
Man Bao added: "It will also be delicious if you slice the meat and cook it together."
Bai Shanbao was very doubtful, "Will it taste good if you put so many things in it?"
"Yes, it's delicious when my sister-in-law makes it. During the Chinese New Year, she tries to use a chicken to make the soup, and then adds various things to it."
Bai Shanbao said: "But this is your fourth brother."
Upon hearing this, Manbao became suspicious and turned to look at her brother.
Zhou Lang: "...You can buy the things first and then talk about it. Then I will divide half of it and boil it. If it doesn't taste good, Daji and I will eat the bad portion."
Daji:……
Manbao and the others agreed, so they carried a basket and went out, happily heading to the street.
Exiting the alley is the main street. The street is not very lively. Firstly, it is the busy farming season, and secondly, it is raining today.
So there were very few people taking to the streets, but there were also many people out looking for something to eat.
Lao Zhao's shop is not far from the alley. His stewed chicken is famous for its deliciousness, and the pot stickers are as famous as the stewed chicken.
Soak the pot stickers in the soup and eat them together, it is very delicious.
Man Bao was very happy when he thought that so many plants had been included in the system today. When he was happy, he became very generous. So with a wave of his hand, he bought a pot of chicken, a basket of pot stickers, and three dishes.
Lao Zhao put the things into baskets for her. Their baskets were not enough, so he took two from his own house and gave them to her. Then he told her: "Be careful on the road and don't scatter them. After you finish eating, leave them in the yard for tomorrow."
We'll pick it up early in the morning."
After Manbao and the others moved in, they spent most of their time buying food from outside, and the shops where they ate the most were at these shops at the entrance of the alley.
Therefore, all the food shops in the half street from the entrance of the alley know them, and since they are not far away, they are willing to provide door-to-door delivery and door-to-door collection of kitchen utensils.
Manbao and the other three happily agreed, and after paying the money, they took the basket home together.
