Travel through the famine years with your space, and become the richest man in five countries with your children Chapter 159: Ferrying in the same boat
After following Qi Yunxiao to the back mountain and seeing the workshop, Shen Qingyu and Zhao Yuzhu realized how much this man cared about Shen Qingyu's affairs without the mother and daughter knowing.
The chili pepper workshop is built similar to the sweet potato flour workshop, and the ground is completely paved with bricks to ensure there is no mud.
Several large stoves are lined up in a row, and large pots have been placed, ready to stir-fry chili sauce at any time.
Qi Yunxiao explained his thoughts when he asked people to repair the workshop.
"I didn't ask them to seal the wall, but I was afraid that the stove would get wet when it rained heavily, so I asked them to expand the eaves a lot."
This can try to prevent rainwater from drifting inside when there is strong wind and rain.
"I asked them to make several large wooden shelves here. It will be more convenient to put cutting boards and basins later."
"Here, ask them to get some water. Do you need to wash the peppers first?"
"This house is still empty. When you saw it, was it used as a warehouse or for something else? You can adjust it at any time."
"..."
It was only at this time that Shen Qingyu truly felt that Qi Yunxiao was really thinking about herself.
Her heart softened, and her eyes looked at Qi Yunxiao softly: "Thank you."
Qi Yunxiao grinned: "You are my wife and the mother of my children, so naturally I care about you."
Looking at the neat and orderly workshop, Shen Qingyu followed her own ideas and asked them to prepare a place to dry the peppers.
There are also some small changes.
Zhao Yuzhu put forward some very practical ideas from her perspective.
After finishing this, Shen Qingyu looked at Qi Yunxiao: "We need to find a place to make pottery pots, and find people to make pottery pots and porcelain pots for holding chili peppers."
Qi Yunxiao nodded: "There is a town in the upper reaches of Hengshui River where ceramics are made. How about we go and have a look?"
I actually asked about it.
Shen Qingyu nodded and looked at Zhao Yuzhu: "Mom, let's go take a look together?"
Zhao Yuzhu took a step back: "I'm impatient to take the boat, you go ahead."
How could Shen Qingyu not know that I was creating a chance for herself and Qi Yunxiao to be alone!
She couldn't help but soften in her heart: "Okay."
When Dabao and Xiaobao learned that their parents were going out together, they were sitting on the big table and chairs in the study, flipping through books.
The two children waved without looking back: "Goodbye, Mom and Dad."
They have stopped working at the sweet potato flour workshop in the past two days and are all studying with Xue Ju.
The sweet potato flour workshop now leaves two children, Stone and Wood, settling accounts there.
Because they are already proficient, the two children are quite impressive at their young age.
Since Xue Juzheng came over, Wenche stopped teaching. He just read Buddhist scriptures every day, and his posture and demeanor became more and more worldly.
Wen Jin became more and more calm, and followed Dabao and Xiaobao to study with Xue Juzheng.
Xue Juzheng did not restrain them. He only gave them a question and asked them to look through the books in the study to find the answer.
Wen Jin has also experienced this kind of teaching method before. Although he was impatient to listen at that time, when he heard such a request now, the events of the past seemed to be right in front of him.
Wen Jin took the lead: "Let's go, today the master raised a question about farming and mulberry. Let's go to the book over there to find the answer."
So the three little ones ran to the bookshelf in Nongsang to look for books.
Dabao made an analogy: "This bookshelf has three floors, and each of the three of us is responsible for one floor."
"Okay..."
The three children divided the work and cooperated. Each one was responsible for a layer of books and quietly flipped through the books to look for clues. The big yellow dog squatted under the desk and dozed out of boredom.
Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao felt relieved and went to town together.
Qi Han was surprised and happy to learn that Shen Qingyu's chili pepper workshop was about to open. "I knew Qingyu, you have such a great ability to make money..."
There happened to be a ship coming down from the upstream unloading cargo. Qi Han personally sent Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao to the dock and asked the ship boss to arrange a good room on the top floor, so he felt relieved.
The boat is traveling in the opposite direction, so the time is much slower than traveling downstream.
Seeing that they still had some goods to unload, Shen Qingyu ran to her own small shop at the dock.
Shen Dashou was guarding the shop and was surprised and happy when he saw Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao coming over.
"Qingyu! Tietou! You are here!"
Shen Qingyu greeted him with a smile and asked about business.
Shen Dashou happily explained: "Business is naturally good. However, this year's business is not good. Generally speaking, it has been affected to some extent."
At least there are not as many people running businesses as in previous years.
The sales volume of glutinous rice is not much different from usual, and even increased slightly.
But the most expensive jerky, braised intestines, and braised pig ears are not as popular as ordinary braised pig heads.
Everyone is more interested in eating for the taste, and no longer just care about the taste and regardless of the price as usual.
I brought some braised pork and went to the Lihua Tavern to order a jar of wine, and the two of us got on the boat together.
This cargo ship has two floors. The lower floor is for loading cargo and the shipwrights live below.
The best room on the top floor was occupied by the boss of the ship. The owner said that this was a noble person and must be treated well, so he gave it to Qi Yunxiao and his wife.
Seeing the room with clean bedding, Shen Qingyu expressed her satisfaction.
It’s great if you have this condition. What kind of bike do you want?
Just then, the boss of the boat came to ask what to eat for dinner so that he could prepare it in advance.
Shen Qingyu looked at the late summer weather: "How about eating pot?"
The ship boss agreed and went.
Standing on the bow of the ship, watching the cargo ship go up, Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao were both in great moods.
This is not Qi Yunxiao's first time taking a boat, but the scenery has never been as good as this one.
He looked at the scenery and then at the people beside him, and his heart was filled with the joy of "she is with me".
The boss of the ship at the helm saw the two people standing side by side at the front, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: A noble person is a noble person, his appearance is extremely good, and his temperament is extremely good.
Such a pair of people standing side by side makes people unable to take their eyes away.
Shen Qingyu's face heated up when Qi Yunxiao saw him, so she turned to look at him and changed the subject: "Why do you always wear a headscarf recently?"
Qi Yunxiao grinned, rarely shy: "I'll block the mark so that it won't be too conspicuous and you won't like it."
Shen Qingyu stared: Is this... the appearance of someone who pleases himself?
"Then why didn't you block the first block before?"
Thinking of the past, Qi Yunxiao was embarrassed, but decided to tell the truth: "At the beginning, I felt aggrieved. I just thought that if you disliked me, I would be freed from the prison."
Shen Qingyu suddenly understood, nodded, and said nothing for a while.
Qi Yunxiao misunderstood: "I didn't mean that I disliked you at that time, I meant..."
"I am... am..."
Shen Qingyu looked at him with a half-smile, without interrupting or speaking.
Qi Yunxiao shut up somewhat dejectedly: He was just a resentful couple who was forcibly sent to work, what is it if it's not rejection?
"I'm sorry, I was blind and didn't see your kindness..."
Qi Yunxiao’s anxious apology.
Shen Qingyu reached out and hooked his finger: "It doesn't matter, I used to be annoying."
The two of them didn't speak for a while.
The waiter came up and secretly asked the boss of the ship: "Boss, I heard that they are noble people. Do you need to make tea for them?"
The boss of the ship slapped the man on the back of the head: "What kind of tea? They don't need it!"
The guy was taken aback for a moment: "Oh, I see..."
It's a hot day, and although it's windy, why don't you need tea after standing on the bow for a long time?
The man felt aggrieved and turned around and went down again.
