After cooking a pot of thick soup, the whole family and Ning Guang were full. Su Xiao even burped incomprehensibly, and said with a smile: "Mom, sister, let me go to the old house to see me."
How is the blind date going with my second uncle!"
Now they call their former home the old house, and only this haunted house is their home.
"You just wanted to watch the fun." Mrs. Chen clicked her tongue in annoyance.
Su Xiao happily stuck out her tongue and waved her hand: "Then I'll go."
Mrs. Chen shouted hurriedly: "Don't start a fight with those boys." Fighting means causing trouble and fighting.
"Hey!" Su Xiao responded from a distance and ran away quickly.
Su Liu helped Mrs. Chen clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "Mom, you can have a rest, I'll just wash it."
"Now that we're full, let's take a lunch break. Let me do it. Didn't you say you wanted to see the Lao Shenzi pepper?" Mrs. Chen glanced at Ning Guangdao while packing up.
Su Liu also knew that Mrs. Chen was a master who couldn't stop, so he hummed, called Ning Guang, and went to his house together.
"I never expected that he was the prefect's son. What a coincidence." Su Liu broke off a piece of dogtail grass on the roadside, played with it in his hand, and told Ning Guang about the two brothers Song Fei.
Ning Guang frowned and quickly let go.
If this is the case, then the Qinghou Mansion in Shangjing'an should have a close relationship with Song Xiao and the others, right? Or maybe they are the same family?
"Why don't you speak?" Seeing his silence, Su Liu couldn't help blinking. Thinking of Song Xiao's words, he said: "Speaking of which, I don't know what your life experience is? You are not from here, are you?
Are you here? Why are you here in Da'ao Village?"
Ning Guang paused and turned to look at Su Liu. The two looked at each other intently.
"What do you want to know?" Ning Guang's voice was a little cold.
Su Liu frowned and suddenly felt that what Song Xiao said was not bad. She really knew nothing about Ning Guang. She pursed her lips.
"Did Song Xiao ask you to ask?"
Su Liu walked straight forward and said: "He didn't, I just think that I don't know you. Now it seems that you are too mysterious. I have to know the details of my future husband-in-law, right?"
"You just need to remember that I will never harm you." Ning Guang's tough face softened.
Su Liu looked back at him, tilted his head and asked, "Ning Guang, you're not married, are you?"
Ning Guang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
"That's good." Su Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As long as you don't have a wife, everything else is not a problem."
After saying that, he walked forward. Ning Guang was stunned on the spot. After a while, he followed him. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "You don't want to ask anymore?"
Su Liu shook the dog's tail grass in his hand and said with a smile: "I'll wait for you to say it yourself."
Ning Guang's heart moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He said nothing more, but his mood was obviously much better.
After returning to Ning Guang's house, Su Liu only had a cup of tea and rested for a while, then went around to the back of the house to look at her two pepper plants.
"Ah, it's starting to turn red?" She stroked the pepper, which had grown to the length of her finger, and was overjoyed: "It looks like it won't take more than a few days to pick it."
Ning Guang imitated her and squatted down and said, "Is this thing really edible?"
Su Liu gave him a blank look and said, "Of course you can, and the taste is so addictive!"
This kind of pepper is a kind of small red pepper, which is very spicy. Just a little bit can make people extremely spicy.
"There are also green peppers and bell peppers. They are not very spicy, but they taste very good. I really want Mr. Song to look for those kinds of peppers later."
"How do you know so much?" Ning Guang looked at her deeply: "This Lao Shizi pepper has never been found in Daqi. You are only thirteen years old and have never been out of Baise Town. How did you learn about this kind of pepper?"
Is the food edible?”
Su Liu paused his hand slightly and said calmly: "I saw it in a book."
"I remember you just learned to read, right?" Ning Guang narrowed his eyes and tried to tell her off: "I didn't know you had this ability. Will you be able to read a book soon?"
Su Liu choked and turned around to glare at him. Does this person know what face is? He exposed her like this and shouted: "Ning Guang! Are you going to break the casserole and ask the truth?"
Ning Guang saw that she was angry and embarrassed, but suddenly in a good mood, so he suppressed a smile and said, "Don't worry, I'll wait for you too."
Ah?
Su Liu was stunned, waiting for her?
"When you are willing to say it." Ning Guang said calmly: "I will wait for you to get to that day too."
Su Liu suddenly realized, but gave a wry smile. If she really said that she came from another world, he would probably regard her as a monster.
Everyone has a secret, Ning Guang has it, Song Xiao has it, she has it too, but her secret cannot be told.
She snorted softly, changed the subject, and said, "Song Xiao and I have said that we want to buy some land to plant a large amount of this. What do you think? But Song Xiao said that today's fertile land costs four to five taels of silver per acre."
Su Liu was a little depressed, and calculated his savings in his mind, and suddenly felt that buying land was just like buying a house in a modern first-tier city. It was very expensive, and there was no installment payment!
Seeing that she changed the subject, Ning Guang didn't care. He just glanced at the small crescent pepper and said: "Is this good land going to waste? If inferior land can be planted well, then it won't matter.
It is necessary to find good land."
"Well, this kind of pepper is not difficult to grow, and you really don't need fertile land." Su Liu said with a smile.
She took another look at the two pepper plants. There were only about a dozen small peppers hanging on each one. There were still too few seeds. It would be great if they could get seeds overseas.
Su Liu thought so, then stood up and said: "No, I still have to go to the third master and ask him to find some seeds for me. It's too little to rely on this alone." She looked at Ning Guang and said again.
Said: "How about you come with me?"
Ning Guang frowned and hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.
...
Song Fei was giving instructions to the shopkeeper about matters in the shop, when he suddenly heard the waiter come to report that Miss Su from Da'ao Village wanted to see him, and he couldn't help but be startled.
"Why is she here?" Song Xiao slumped down on a chair beside him and jumped up after hearing the waiter's words.
Song Fei glanced at him and said to the waiter: "Please come in and bring me two cups of tea."
Su Liu walked in quickly and saw the Song Fei brothers there, so he smiled and saluted.
"Little money fan, what are you doing here?"
Su Liu glanced at him and said, "There must be something important."
"Sit." Song Fei smiled and gave up his seat.
Su Liu was not shy. He sat down gracefully and said straight to the point: "I'm here because I have something to ask Third Master."
"you say."
"Third Master often travels overseas, and you brought those peppers back. I wonder if Third Master has heard that there are pepper seeds for sale there?" Su Liu asked.
Song Fei was stunned for a moment, then said: "It is often seen as potted plants over there. I heard that it is spicy and not easy to eat. Few people eat it, so I don't know if there are seeds for sale."
After hearing that it was used as a potted plant, Su Liu couldn't help but twitch his lips and said, "I wonder if the third master will go overseas in the near future?"
"Do you want the seeds of these peppers?" Song Fei also raised her eyebrows. Su Liu had already guessed her purpose when she asked.
It's easy to talk to smart people. Su Liu nodded and said, "I don't want to hide it from Third Master. I have an idea that I want to try out, which is about these peppers. Although I have already got two pots from Third Master, they are fully mature.
There are only a few seeds. I want to plant a large number of them, but these seeds alone are far from enough."
"Can this kind of plant really be used as a vegetable?" Song Fei frowned.
"It's possible, but I guess some people won't be used to it and won't be able to accept it. So I would like to ask Mr. San, if he goes overseas, to see if there are other seeds of this kind of pepper and bring them back with him."
"It's not easy for people to accept, so you still want to plant it in large quantities?" Song Fei was surprised.
Su Liu smiled and said: "But not everyone can't accept it. If it can be grown, it will be great for farmers. Moreover, it can not only be used for cooking, but can also be made into other seasonings."
"Third brother, didn't you say you want to go overseas?" Song Xiao said after hearing this.
Su Liu's eyes suddenly lit up with joy.
Song Fei showed a helpless smile and said: "It's a coincidence that you came here. I was about to go there again. Since you want these seeds, I have remembered them. If there are any, I will bring them back to you."
"
Su Liu smiled and narrowed his eyes and said: "In that case, we will wait for the good news from the third master. By the way, even the tomato seeds, if you have them, please bring them back."
Song Fei nodded, seeing that his goal was achieved and Ning Guang was waiting outside again, Su Liu didn't stay and stood up to leave.
"Xiao Cai Fan, I'll go out with you." Song Xiao also stood up.
"Fifth brother." Song Fei lowered his face in disapproval.
"Third brother, I won't run away again. I'm going to Beijing tomorrow and I don't know when I'll be back. You just open your eyes and close your eyes. Don't hold me back." Song Xiao frowned.
road.
"Fifth Master is going to Beijing?"
Song Xiao hummed and said vaguely: "I have to go there for some things."
"Then I wish the fifth master a safe journey, and the third master too." Su Liu smiled and saluted the two of them again.
"Third brother, I'll come as soon as I go."
As he walked out of the inner hall, Song Xiao curiously asked Su Liu about the chili pepper, and he even more intelligently guessed the purpose of the chili pepper.
"You said that if the shop is going to be prosperous, it depends on the chili peppers?"
Su Liu glanced at him sideways and said teasingly: "I guess you won't be so obsessed with it that you don't know anything." Before Song Xiao could get angry, she said again: "You guessed it right, so this shop is temporarily closed."
I can’t even open it, I have to wait until the pepper comes out.”
After walking out of Qingji, Song Xiao wanted to say something, but he saw Ning Guang standing outside the shop. He couldn't help but lowered his face and asked: "Why did he come with you?"
Ning Guangzi also saw Song Xiao, and his face was equally ugly, but he didn't make any reaction. He only stepped forward and said to Su Liu: "Is something wrong?"
Su Liu nodded and said, "Third Master said he would keep an eye out for me. I hope he can find it."
She saw Song Xiao standing aside with pursed lips, and said: "Fifth Master, we have to buy some ingredients, so we'll say goodbye. I wish you good luck."
Song Xiao snorted, glanced at Ning Guang coldly, ignored Su Liu, and turned around and left.
"Like a child." Su Liu clicked his tongue and said, "Let's go."
