Wang Yanmei continued cooking and didn’t even want to say another word.
Xu Qingzhi brought other fried dishes to the table and called her father to bring chicken soup.
This was always the case when he was a child. The chicken soup in the pressure cooker was too hot, and his parents would say that the child couldn't handle it and that an adult would have to do it. Xu Qingzhi developed this habit.
When Xu Fuqiang stretched out his hand to bring the soup, his eyes turned away uneasily, and he did not look at his daughter. He couldn't help but said: "Qingzhi, if you are not married, you still have to be careful and don't let anyone else take advantage of it."
Cheap, know how to cut it"
Xu Qingzhi agreed: "Dad, I know."
Xu Fuqiang then brought the chicken soup out.
Dishes are served one after another.
The chicken soup is a mushroom chicken soup stewed with mushrooms picked from the mountains. It is particularly delicious.
There is also a bowl of amaranth in soup, a bowl of water spinach with garlic, a bowl of roasted beans with eggplant, a bowl of scrambled eggs with green pepper, a bowl of garlic loofah vermicelli, a pot of sour water chili fish, and a pot of dry and spicy duck...
There is a table full of dishes. Fortunately, the Xu family uses a round table to entertain guests. It can accommodate ten people, let alone seven.
Xu Fuqiang called to the people in the yard to come in and eat.
At this time, a low-key black Bentley drove towards Yuanbaba.
He stood at the door suspiciously and looked at whose car this was. He had never seen it in the village.
The black Bentley parked directly in front of Xu's house. Zhang Qi got out of the car, opened the trunk, and carried several gift boxes containing ginseng, Maotai, and tea. He also held a pure gold lucky cat covered by a transparent glass cover.
.
Huo Fengyan walked up to Xu Fuqiang and said, "Uncle, this is my first visit. I asked my assistant to bring some small gifts."
Xu Fuqiang was speechless as he looked at it. Good guy, how much does this cat made of gold cost?
"It's too expensive, Xiao Huo, take it back quickly." Xu Fuqiang waved his hand in refusal, not noticing that his title had changed.
"Uncle, it's just a little thought from me." Huo Fengyan said with a smile.
They never gave any gifts, and the three people who were just enjoying the meal suddenly felt that their faces were dull.
Xu Fuqiang was still refusing. Xu Qingzhi knew her parents’ personalities. She didn’t know when she would push him back. The food would not taste good when it was cold.
Xu Qingzhi said: "Just ask the assistant to leave it in the room. Let's eat first."
Wen Shanshan was so happy when she saw the dishes on the table, "Wow, it's so rich today, you can have a feast again."
Jiang Xiao on the side introduced it to Huo Fengyan in a low voice: "You must try this mushroom and chicken soup made by auntie first. It is very delicious. I drank it once and will never forget it again. You can't drink such delicious food in Kyoto."
Chicken soup and fried duck are also delicious. By the way, the water spinach is also very tender and tastes sweet."
Jiang Xiao couldn't wait to get to the table and eat.
Xu Fuqiang took out the precious medicinal wine from the house and said, "Xiao Huo, take a sip of wine."
Jiang Xiao quickly stopped him: "Uncle, Feng Yan cannot drink alcohol with high alcohol content due to his health."
Xu Fuqiang froze for a while while holding the wine in his arms. He would drink at the dinner table because he didn't know how to drink. He wanted to use wine to get closer and talk to each other.
Huo Fengyan's heart began to feel uncomfortable again. He couldn't help coughing and said in a weak tone: "I can drink a little."
"Don't, don't, don't drink. Don't force yourself to drink if you can't handle it." Jiang Xiao refused to let him seek death. If something happened to Huo Fengyan, Mr. Huo and his family would not kill him.
Xu Fuqiang took the wine back again. His family Qingzhi got wine for him, but most people would not be willing to take it out.
His mind was already spinning a thousand times. It seemed that this young man was not in good health. He thought he was fine at first, but if he was not in good health, he would never allow Qing Zhi to marry him. Otherwise, Qing Zhi would be very tired in his later years. If he were a man
He died early, knowing how hard it is to live alone with a baby.
When Wang Yanmei came out after washing her hands, she saw that everyone had not moved her chopsticks yet, so she enthusiastically said: "Eat, eat, eat, eh, this is it"
Zhang Qi on the side quickly introduced himself: "Hello, aunt, I am Mr. Huo's special assistant. My name is Zhang Qi. I used to be a lawyer."
"Lawyer," Wang Yanmei's eyes shone, and she raised her thumb and praised: "Lawyers are good, they can litigate. Only smart people can be lawyers."
Xu Qingzhi suddenly felt that the voice sounded familiar, and suddenly raised his eyes, "Zhang Lu"
Zhang Qi felt that this voice was also very familiar, so he tentatively said: "Miss Xu"
The two people have had a voice call before, and as soon as they use this title, they will know who the other person is.
"What a coincidence." Zhang Qi was ecstatic in his heart. He never expected that he would be on a business trip to the vegetable seller's hometown.
He was surfing the Internet before and saw that people were curious about what the vegetable seller's home and vegetable garden looked like, what kind of environment it was like to grow such delicious vegetables, and he wanted to come over for a trip.
Unexpectedly, he came.
"Welcome." Xu Qingzhi curled her lips slightly and introduced to her parents that this was the lawyer who helped before.
When Xu Fuqiang and Wang Yanmei heard this, they became even more enthusiastic.
"Xiao Qi, come on, let's eat some food. How many days are you staying here? If there's anything you're not used to, tell Auntie. If there's anything you like, tell Auntie, and Auntie will cook it for you.
”
"I didn't buy a drink or anything at home. I didn't even have anything to drink. It was really a poor reception." Xu Fuqiang saw the bayberry wine on the side and then remembered, "You know, is this bayberry wine ready to drink?"<
/p>
In fact, I was able to drink it a few days ago. Xu Qingzhi took a sip and said, "It's ready to drink."
Xu Fuqiang immediately brought the bayberry wine to entertain the guests, one cup per person.
Zhang Qi was originally very nervous. After all, he came here with Mr. Huo to have a meal. He relaxed immediately after being warmly received and said, "Thank you, uncle and aunt."
Jiang Xiao on the side originally wanted to take away Huo Fengyan's cup, but Huo Fengyan held the cup down.
This bayberry wine seems to have enough spiritual energy. Drinking it will only be beneficial to the body.
Jiang Xiao was helpless. Fortunately, the alcohol content of this fruit wine was low, so he didn't care.
Xu Qingzhi took a sip first. It tasted delicious. It had a strong aroma of fermented bayberry fruits. The alcohol content was very low and did not burn the throat. However, because it was wine, it tasted mellow. After entering the throat, the mellow aroma seemed like
Wandering in the body.
Wen Shanshan on the side also took a sip, her eyes narrowed slightly with satisfaction, like a contented kitten basking in the winter sunshine, "Qingzhi, this bayberry wine is delicious, and it is completely different from the previous sour plum soup.
The smell is so refreshing when you open your mouth and speak.”
After Jiang Xiao tasted it, he began to regret, "If I had known I should have left some bayberries to make wine, it would have been too bad."
As soon as the bayberries from the boutique supermarket came online, they were all sold out in a short time despite the daily limit. He really regretted it, so he had to hope that the bayberries would bear fruit next year and make some bayberry wine by then.
Wang Yanmei thought it was good after drinking it and asked Xu Fuqiang to try it quickly.
Zhang Qi had never eaten the bayberry from the boss's house. His wife only bought some vegetables from the group. He took a cup and took a sip of the bayberry wine, and his eyes suddenly lit up! He thought to himself, his wife must like to drink this bayberry wine.<
/p>
It's a pity that his wife is pregnant and can't drink now.
It would be nice if he could buy some vegetables from the boss's house, but the boss probably wouldn't agree. She didn't even reply to his WeChat message.
Zhang Qi felt disappointed for a moment. Seeing everyone starting to eat, the water spinach he picked up with chopsticks turned out to be even more delicious than the water spinach he made!
He looked at the other vegetables and tasted them one by one.
Even if it’s the same dish, it’s still more delicious than what he cooks!
His eyes fell intensely on the bowl of spicy duck meat.
At this time, Jiang Xiao on the side tried his best to make a profit: "Feng Yan, eat this duck, it is very delicious. This is a duck raised by Qingzhi in the back mountain, but the ducks from farmers who only eat grains have excellent meat quality."
Huo Fengyan picked up a piece of duck meat and took a bite. The duck meat was stewed in a pressure cooker. It was not bad at all. The meat could be easily chewed, but the meat was not very soft and rotten. It was still a little chewy and wrapped in delicious flavor.
The spicy juice is particularly fragrant.
Zhang Qi also picked up a piece of duck meat, tasted the meat and took three mouthfuls of rice. The tiredness of a laborer who beat livestock was gone from his face, and his eyes were bright. This duck meat is so delicious, it is so delicious. p>
He ate bowl after bowl, and after finishing three bowls of rice in a row, he was too embarrassed to fill it up again.
Wang Yanmei noticed it and enthusiastically put the rice directly into the bowl, "Eat, Xiao Qi, you didn't eat much on the way from Kyoto, so you must be starving. Just treat this as your own home.
You're welcome."
Zhang Qi felt warm in his heart, "Thank you, auntie."
So, he ate another bowl.
After lunch, Xu Fuqiang and Wang Yanmei cleared away the dishes and asked the young people to go out to eat. After sitting for a while, the two of them went to the kitchen and started whispering.
"When will Qingzhi tell you that she has someone else?"
Wang Yanmei defended: "I didn't say it. I really don't know. I was just talking nonsense before."
"Okay, that's how it is now. Xiao Huo gave us a gift, have you just cleared it up?"
"Well, I gave you two bottles of good wine, two boxes of tea, two boxes of ginseng, a golden pig, a gold necklace, and a pair of gold earrings." Wang Yanmei said, "The necklace and earrings are quite nice, Xiao Huo.
You have a good eye."
Seeing how happy his wife was, Xu Fuqiang snorted coldly: "It's not as good as the gold necklace I bought. When Xiao Huo leaves, we have to prepare something for people to take with them. In terms of etiquette, we have to be in place. Don't
Taking advantage of others"
Wang Yanmei agreed: "Okay, I have made some money selling vegetables recently."
Xu Fuqiang sighed and said: "Although Xiao Huo is handsome, his health is not good. If he dies early, our daughter will be a widow, which is not good. Besides, he looks very weak. He is definitely not as good as our family when it comes to hoeing."
Awesome."
Outside, under the persimmon tree.
Huo Fengyan's face darkened.
Xu Qingzhi lay on the chair, holding the white cat in his arms, smoothing the cat's fur, and chuckled.
Wen Siran was busy with the online shopping mall, and Wen Shanshan was busy with the new women's clothing products. They both went back, and Jiang Xiao also followed.
Zhang Qi was taking a nap in the house, and she and Huo Fengyan were the only two people under the persimmon tree at the moment.
Huo Fengyan looked up at the persimmon tree and said with his spiritual consciousness: "After you left, the persimmon tree in Tianqiong Palace never bloomed again."
"Yeah." Xu Qingzhi also responded with spiritual consciousness.
Huo Fengyan: "Don't ask me why you came here"
"If you want to say it, just say it. I'm not curious." Xu Qingzhi looked indifferent.
Huo Fengyan smiled and said, "We'll leave it for later."
Xu Qingzhi yawned and felt a little sleepy. He had been dreaming for a while, and even if he wanted to sleep, he didn't sleep well.
The white cat jumped off her body, ran into Huo Fengyan's arms, and rubbed its head against the palm of his hand affectionately.
Xu Qingzhi lay on the recliner, closed her eyes, and tilted her head slightly. The breeze blew over her cheeks. The hot wind became a bit cooler when it blew through the persimmon trees, and she fell asleep after a while.
Huo Fengyan stroked the white cat's plush head.
He looked at the familiar face in front of him, his heart ached and itched, he took a deep breath and moved his eyes far away.
It's exactly what she said when she was drunk.
She said that she was homesick. There was a very big persimmon tree in front of her house. When it was in bloom, the tree was full of small white flowers. When it came to fruition, the tree was full of her favorite persimmons. She loved the big and big persimmon tree the most.
Lying under the big persimmon tree.
He then went to find the largest persimmon tree in the world and planted it for her in the yard of his Sky Palace.
Grandma said that if you like someone, you should be nice to them.
Whatever she wants, he will give her.
She liked fishing, so he accompanied her to go fishing in the West Sea, where the fish were the most abundant.
She liked to admire the moon, so he carried her and flew to the highest dome to watch the moon.
The wound on the heart began to hurt densely again, as if being eaten by ants, the pain was so painful that even the bones seemed to be brittle.
The sword she stabbed him with has been more than a hundred years old, and it is still not healed. Moreover, after traveling through time and space, her cultivation has been dissipated, and the wound is even more serious.
Huo Fengyan raised his hand to touch his heart, forcing down the pain.
Xu Qingzhi slept for a while, then woke up again after falling into an uneasy sleep.
Zhang Qi also woke up and had just finished chatting with his wife. Reporting at all times is what a married man should do. He talked about the delicious chicken soup and duck meat for lunch, which made his wife greedy.
He remembered that his wife couldn't even get roots and leaves, and he felt sorry for her that she couldn't eat well even though she was pregnant. He went out shamelessly and asked tentatively: "Miss Xu, can I buy some vegetables from your farm and send them to my wife?"<
/p>
Xu Qingzhi rubbed his eyes, and his voice was still a bit unclear when he just woke up: "Just call me Qingzhi. I don't have much of the vegetables you want."
For example, she plans to keep tomatoes and cucumbers for her own consumption and to plant seeds, and she cannot sell too many of them.
Zhang Qi, who was already prepared to be rejected, was ecstatic when he heard that his boss actually agreed: "I... I can do it, and I can use whatever vegetables are available. Miss Xu... Qingzhi, I'm really troubling you. My wife recently
She has severe morning sickness, and she can only eat well if she eats the food from your farm. I am not with her these days, and she cannot eat well or sleep well during pregnancy. I felt really bad for her, so I spoke shamelessly." When he heard that his wife was pregnant, the expression on Xu Qingzhi's face became more serious, "You should eat something good when you are pregnant. I happen to be weeding in the fields in the afternoon. If it is convenient for you, you can go to the vegetable field with me.
You ask your wife what she likes to eat and how much she likes to eat. You can pick some by yourself. However, if she eats it by herself, don’t pick too much at one time. Pregnant women still need to eat something fresh. Anyway, I send express delivery every day." p>
"Thank you so much, Qingzhi." Zhang Qi clasped his hands tightly together in excitement, his wife's food is saved!
In the afternoon, Wang Yanmei went to the county seat to practice driving again.
Xu Fuqiang arranged for people to pick vegetables, and his eyes glanced at his daughter's area from time to time.
Huo Fengyan rolled up his sleeves, revealing two slender, white but somewhat muscular arms, holding a hoe and weeding.
It seems to prove that he does not look weak and is still capable of hoeing.
No one in the world of cultivators would have thought that Feng Yan, who was frightened by the news, would now carry a hoe in the field to weed in order to prove his strength.
Xu Qingzhi ignored him and led Zhang Qi around the three vegetable gardens, and finally picked some tomatoes, cucumbers, amaranth and loofah.
Shan Yue really didn't expect that there would be loofah. The boss didn't seem to have served loofah before, it was a new dish! You can also choose from the sold-out tomatoes and cucumbers. She was so happy all of a sudden that she sat on the sofa and danced.
Zhang Qi was in the video, coaxing her in a low voice: "Baby, don't get too excited, pay attention to your health."
Xu Qingzhi, who had taken a bite of dog food, said, well, stay away quietly and don’t disturb the love between the couple.
Finally, when sending the express, Xu Qingzhi specially packed a box of eggs. There was one in each box, which could last for half a month, so he said it was a gift.
Her mother told her that in the past, she didn't have the conditions to give birth to children now, so she always gave birth at home. She bled a lot when she was born, and the conditions at home were not good during her confinement period, so she didn't even eat many eggs.
Pregnancy is very hard for women, it is painful when giving birth, and it is also tiring to take care of the baby after giving birth.
Moreover, the matter that was spread in the first place was thanks to Zhang Qi, as a lawyer, who dealt with it in the middle. Xu Qingzhi basically didn’t put in any effort on his part, and sending a box of eggs was also a thoughtful gesture.
Zhang Qi said thank you several times and told his wife as soon as the express was sent.
Shanyue didn't expect there were eggs, so she typed out a reply to her husband's WeChat message: "The boss is so kind."
"Many people online said that she was too cold for not replying to messages, that she didn't respect customers, etc. It's all false!"
"How can you be aloof? Such a warm-hearted person."
Zhang Qi saw that he had not replied to the WeChat message he sent to his boss. Thinking of the fact that he had not seen his boss take out his mobile phone to talk to him all day long, he smiled and replied to his wife: "It's not that my boss is cold and doesn't reply to messages.
I have never seen her take out her mobile phone."
Shanyue: "This boss is so special. Who among young people can resist using their mobile phones?"
-
For several days, Huo Fengyan worked actively in the fields and helped pick vegetables.
Jiang Xiao's long-tanned skin has become darker due to the strong sunshine these days, but Huo Fengyan is still glowing white.
This made Wen Shanshan very envious: "The skin that never tans is so good."
Within a few days, gossip about Xu Jiaxin began to spread in the village.
When Xu Qingzhi was riding a tricycle to deliver food to her grandpa, she met several grandmas asking her questions.
"Qingzhi, I heard that your boyfriend from Kyoto is here. The young man is very handsome."
"Qingzhi, I heard that you are getting married at the end of the year. When will you make wine? Tell your aunt. Auntie will go to your house to help you."
"I heard someone else say that you are pregnant and your boyfriend came to your house to discuss marriage. How was the discussion? How much was the bride price?"
"Kyoto is still a bit far away. Qingzhi, your grandpa loves you the most and would be reluctant to let you marry far away."
……
The rumors are becoming more and more outrageous. It is estimated that in a few days, she will give birth to a child.
Xu Qingzhi would still say a few words of clarification to those old ladies who had no ill intentions and simply cared about her.
If they were gossips, she wouldn't pay any attention to them.
It’s a 5,000-word chapter. I finished writing it at 4 o’clock in the morning and I won’t break it into chapters. There will be a power outage for a day during the day, and I will go to the hospital for eye examination in the afternoon. If the situation is good, it will be updated in the evening. I will try to update 10,000 words today.
