Chapter 42
The old man Niu's warning eyes made the little Jiujiu in Luo Shiyuan's heart disappear suddenly, he picked up the bowl, and silently ate the rice.

Seeing him deflated, Liu Qingcao lowered her head and bit her lips and smiled secretly. Luo Shiyuan saw her and glared at her with glaring eyes. Provocative, just about to speak, but was choked back by the old man coughing.

After the meal, the old man Niu didn't stay, and the pig's offal was left unwashed, and Liu Qingcao started to wash the remaining pig's offal after tidying up.

After the pig was washed, the willow and green grass began to be stewed non-stop. During this period of time, there were many things to do, and the old man Niu was busy at any time, so she was the only one left, as busy as a spinning top.

Yesterday I went to the cloth shop in the town to discuss cooperation, the shopkeeper was not there, there was only one embroiderer, and the embroiderer had little experience, so she didn't dare to give her the result immediately, she just said that she would look for it by herself after her boss came back in two days.

Liu Qingcao had no choice but to nod her head and leave helplessly. Xiu Niang said that it would be two days, but she didn't know if it was really two days or estimated two days.

No matter what, I'll go to the cloth shop tomorrow to have a look, buy some cloth, and make some clothes and quilts for a change of clothes. Summer is over and winter is coming soon, so these things need to be prepared early.

"These two people are not active in eating..." At dinner time, Liu Qingcao finished the meal and looked out. The two of them came and waited early at this time of day. I don't know what happened today. , I didn't come after the meal was ready, I waited for more than half an hour, and I didn't see anyone...

Liu Qingcao sat in the yard, waiting and waiting, and after another half an hour, no one came, and she didn't bother to wait any longer, so she directly shared some food and ate first.

After dinner, the sky gradually became dark, Liu Qingcao made the cold tofu for tomorrow, sat in the yard and let the wind blow for a while, and saw two unhurried figures in the distance, with the setting sun behind their backs, towards Came over from his own yard.

"Uncle Niu, the food is still hot, wash your hands first, and I'll bring it out for you." After Liu Qingcao finished speaking, she walked quickly to the kitchen and brought out the food that was warm in the pot.

The old man Niu and Luo Shiyuan washed their hands, sat down and began to eat, Liu Qingcao couldn't help but clicked his mouth when he saw the speed of the two eating, how hungry he was, he swallowed it directly without chewing.

She looked away with some disgust, watching the sky get darker and darker, and it would be a little hard to see clearly if it got darker.

Liu Qingcao watched the two eat in the dark, got up and went to the kitchen, took out the oil lamp and put it on the table.

Early the next morning, the old man Niu came over with his ox cart, had breakfast, and the three of them went to the town together.

At the entrance of the town, Liu Qingcao was separated from the two, they went to deliver the goods, and she went to the cloth village.

She has met the owner of the cloth village since she bought cloth for the first time. The owner's name is Guo Yuxiu, and everyone calls her Mrs. Guo, but few people call her by her full name.

Lady Guo has the same name as her, with delicate features hidden in the corners of her brows and eyes, her voice and smile revealing gentleness, her appearance is like a flower, more like a snow lotus.

Liu Qingcao met her once, and remembered her. She is a beauty, both men and women like it. She is so beautiful, so naturally she is not easy to forget.

"Shen Xiuniang, is your boss back today?" Liu Qingcao walked into the cloth shop, and saw Shen Xiuniang standing in front of the counter, checking all kinds of cloth and recording something in the notebook.

Shen Xiuniang heard the voice, turned around, looked at the girl who was similar to her daughter with a smile on her face, and replied:
"The boss is back, but he went out again because he had something to do. He said he was coming back before lunch. Miss, do you think you want to go shopping again and come back at noon?"

"Okay, then I'll go out for a stroll. When your boss comes back in a while, tell her, Xiuniang Shen."

Liu Qingcao took out six copper plates from her bosom, and put them into Shen Xiu Niang's palm. Shen Xiu Niang felt what was in her palm, she was stunned for a moment, and then put the copper plates away with a smile on her face.

"Okay, I'll bring it for you, little girl, go shopping."

Liu Qingcao left the cloth village, went to the grain shop, bought a lot of grain, and then went to the mobile vegetable market, bought six small chickens and two big roosters, and she asked the dealer to kill the roosters.

Finally, she went to the seed shop to find Zhang Youliang.

"Uncle Zhang, do you have any novel seeds during this time?"

"Oh, green grass, the novelty seeds are gone. Didn't I sell you all the box last time? What's the matter, there are results?"

"I don't know yet. I just bought it not long ago, and I don't know if it will work. Uncle Zhang, if you haven't seen it next time, you can save it for me. I bought some wasteland recently and want to try it."

Liu Qingcao explained with a smile that although she knew a lot of the seeds last time and planted most of them, the amount was not much, so it is not appropriate to tell others now.

After Zhang Youliang listened, he nodded thoughtfully:

"Okay, then I'll keep an eye out for you. If there are any ones you haven't seen, I'll keep them for you. If one day you plant them, bring one or two for me to try. It's a reward for uncle's hard work."

"Okay, then Uncle Zhang will trouble Uncle Zhang about this matter. By the way, Uncle Zhang, help me get a few catties of chili seeds."

Liu Qingcao thought about the land that had been reclaimed. It would be a waste of her money to not plant anything on such a large piece of land.

Zhang Youliang heard that she wanted to buy chili seeds, and it happened that three catties of chili seeds came a few days ago, and they happened to be wrapped up with Liu Qingcao.

Liu Qingcao took the chili seeds, went to the entrance of the town, and put everything on the bullock cart.

"Uncle Niu, let's eat lunch in the town today, I won't be able to go back for a while."

Liu Qingcao wants to wait for Mrs. Guo. She will eat lunch in the town, while Niu Laotou and Luo Shiyuan will eat at her house. If she doesn't go back to cook, they won't have anything to eat when they go back. It's better to settle it in the town. It's a matter of time When it's done, let's go back together.

The old man Niu gave a "hmm" and didn't object. Luo Shiyuan frowned, obviously unwilling, but seeing that the old man Niu also agreed, his opinion was not that important.

Liu Qingcao, who got the answer, went to Huibailou to order food first, and the old man Niu wanted to arrange the ox cart and the things on the cart, so he walked behind.

Luo Shiyuan followed Liu Qingcao into Huibailou, Lin Er saw Liu Qingcao entering, and rushed to greet him.

"Girl Qingcao, what are you?"

"Second brother Lin, I'm here for dinner, three of us, please arrange a table for us."

"Come on, Miss Qingcao, please."

Lin Er took Liu Qingcao to the private room on the second floor. The private room is spacious and bright. Compared with the lobby downstairs, it is much quieter and the decoration is more beautiful and grand.

Liu Qingcao sat down, took the menu from Lin Er, and began to order.

"Second brother Lin, one serving of stewed pork sausage, one serving of grilled fish, one serving of cold tofu, and an egg lump soup."

"Okay, Miss Qingcao, wait a moment, I'll make arrangements right away."

Liu Qingcao actually didn't want to order the dishes she made, but most of the dishes on the menu were light, not her favorite taste, and she was making things difficult for herself if she wanted to order something else.

The food came out very quickly, as soon as the old man Niu sat down, all the dishes he ordered were served.

Liu Qingcao smiled, Lin Er might have joined the team for her convenience.

When the food was served on the table, Luo Shiyuan's eyes lit up. He thought that if he didn't go back to eat, he would not be able to eat the delicacies made by Liu Qingcao. Unexpectedly, the food in this town was actually the same as that made by Liu Qingcao.

This excited him who likes to eat delicious food.

"The dishes are here, Miss Qingcao, call me if you need anything, I'll go down first." Lin Er took the paper list, drew a few strokes on the list with a pen, and said a few words to Liu Qingcao and others, Then he closed the door and went out.

As soon as Lin Er left, the three of them began to eat with their chopsticks. No one was polite. If you want to talk about the same food, Liu Qingcao still thinks that the food she made is better, and she doesn't know if this is her own illusion.
