Chen Xingyi opened the lid of the casserole with a cloth, scooped out a little bit with a spoon, took a bowl and walked to the living room.
"How about the red bean stew?"
Li Ke puffed up his cheeks and blew hard, then stretched out the tip of his tongue to carefully test the temperature. After making sure it was not hot, he took it in one bite, "It's delicious. The red beans have been stewed for a long time. They are soft, glutinous and sweet."
Chen Xingyi went to take the casserole off the stove with satisfaction.
He opened the cupboard, took out two small bowls, thought about it, put them back, and took out a large bowl.
Li Ke watched Chen Xing come in with a tray. On it was a large bowl filled with red bean porridge, and next to it was a small plate of cold kelp shreds, red and green, which looked quite appetizing.
Li Ke, a straight girl, saw only a pair of bowls and chopsticks and asked curiously, "Aren't you going to eat?"
"Eat, I want you to feed me." Chen Xingyi said confidently.
That being said, Li Ke was not good at feeding people, so he either spilled the food or accidentally dropped the spoon.
Chen Xing was so angry that he took her into his arms and scratched her, "Tell me honestly, did you do it on purpose? From now on, if this spoon falls again, you should stop feeding her with a spoon."
"Then what to feed?" Li Ke didn't react for a moment.
Chen Xingyi rubbed her lips with his index finger, his eyes dangerous, "What do you think?"
Li Ke heard that his voice was hoarse and tight, and he had a bad intuition. When he wasn't paying attention to a carp erecting, he sat upright and jumped off his lap, and ran to the bathroom as soon as he landed.
"I'm full. I'm going to wash up and go to bed. You can eat by yourself."
Chen Xingyi was speechless. Doesn't this little fool know that the bathroom is more dangerous?
After Li Ke left, Chen Xingyi didn't bother to eat one bite at a time with a spoon. He just took the bowl and finished it in one go, and then took it to the kitchen to wash it.
A night of endless spring scenery.
The next morning, Dong Chunxiao came early, and Li Ke discussed the location of the new store with her for most of the morning.
After sending Dong Chunxiao away, Li Ke took a breath and continued to write math problems. Chen Xingyi went out again and was busy contacting the purchase of cement, bricks and sand.
Not long after I finished writing, my mother-in-law came to ask for dinner. For lunch, my father-in-law’s specialty was boiled fish fillets. There was more fish in it than the side dishes. Li Ke was sweating profusely after eating, and was extremely satisfied.
While eating, she gave Chen Xing a piece of food and said, "Eat more, you've been working hard lately."
"Where is the hard work?" Chen Xingyi asked maliciously.
"You have to study and renovate the house at the same time. Of course it's hard work." Li Ke said while secretly twisting his thigh under the table.
Chen Xingyi grimaced in pain.
"What's wrong with you, little uncle?" Sanya saw something wrong with his expression.
"It's spicy. I just ate a small chili pepper that made me choke. It's spicy." Chen Xingyi explained with difficulty.
Chen Xiangdong saw through it but didn't tell him. He gave him a mocking look and silently gestured with his mouth: Tracheitis!
Chen Xingyi replied: I will inherit it from you.
Li Fang, who was watching the whole process, was speechless, "Okay, if the eldest brother doesn't tell the second brother, let your dad keep an eye on when the construction of the house will start."
"I have already contacted the cement, sand, bricks, steel bars and other materials. It means that the workers here in Fangyuan are in place and we can start the work."
When they heard that Cao Cao had arrived, Yu Fangyuan came to see Chen Xingyi before lunch was finished.
Li Fang enthusiastically filled a large bowl of boiled fish fillets and handed it to him. Yu Fangyuan reported the situation while eating, "Brother, the workers have been found. When will you start work here? Give me a time. If work starts late,
Just let them do odd jobs for a few days.
There are seniors and juniors at the top, and we can’t afford to miss a single day.”
"Let's start work tomorrow. Ask the workers to come to me at my door at six o'clock tomorrow morning, and I will take them there on a tricycle." Chen Xiangdong said.
"Okay, Uncle Dong, I'll talk to them later."
Yu Fangyuan went to several companies for this matter. Although he didn't say it, everyone knew that it must have taken a lot of effort to get the workers together in such a short period of time.
Li Fang took out a large handful of bananas from the house, packed them in black plastic bags, and asked Yu Fangyuan to take them home to eat.
After lunch, Li Ke and Chen Xingyi set off back to the county.
My mother-in-law prepared big and small bags of food again.
"Mom, it won't be long before you and Dad can move here. Then we can live upstairs and downstairs and see each other every day. There is still an open space in the yard for you. You can plant whatever you want.
What to plant?"
"Really?" Li Fang was a little happy when she heard this.
I was about to leave my old neighborhood and my old yard, but I was still a little reluctant to leave.
Especially the small vegetable patch in the yard was taken care of by her so well. Whatever she planted grew well, and the green vegetables were juicy and crispy and sweet.
Now when she heard that she had moved to the county and had a piece of land that she could use to plant whatever she wanted, Li Fang was extremely happy.
Farmers have the deepest feelings for the land.
Li Ke nodded, "No, I can still lie to you."
"It's because you're so careful that Chen Xingyi wouldn't have thought of this." Li Fang said with emotion.
"Mom, you don't avoid me when you say bad things about me now. I originally wanted to buy a bag of fertilizer to loosen the soil and fertilize the land to make it fertile first.
If you say that, then I won’t care about anything.”
"Oh, oh, Xiaoliu is the best, Xiaoliu is attentive, Mom just said something wrong." Li Fang quickly made amends.
Chen Xiangdong came over and put his arm around her shoulders, "Daughter-in-law, you don't need to beg him. I'm going to build a house during this period. I'll be there every day. What do you want to do with the land? Just say a word and I'll keep it."
It’s done for you.”
Chen Xingyi rolled his eyes silently, his father was still so good at causing trouble despite his age.
It was not yet two o'clock in the afternoon when the two of them arrived at the county.
Chen Xingyi went to the furniture market to look at glass windows, doors, cabinets, toiletries, etc.
Li Ke came directly to the store. There were several customers in the store, and Shen Yi was also there. Wang Xiangjun was very busy, and there were customers waiting for her to match her clothes.
Li Ke immediately put on his employee uniform and went to work.
After finally seeing off a group of guests, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"I brought water chestnut rock sugar, one cup per person, and put it on the small table under the cashier in front. Whoever drinks it can go get it yourself. Why are there so many customers today?"
There are usually many people on weekends, but not as many as today.
"It seems that the teacher in your school went to some event and wore our clothes, and a large number of people came here." Wang Xiangjun explained.
Li Ke remembered, "You're talking about the lecture contest, right? I didn't expect the publicity to be so effective."
There were quite a few teachers who participated in the lecture competition, and Li Ke didn't dare to be too public about it. He only sponsored clothes for Chen Shuting and a few of her friends, hoping to promote it by the way.
