Exile at the beginning: I rule the world by drawing cards

Chapter 32 The fried eggplant box is so fragrant
Zhou Lingqi dug out the silver, put it in his arms, and returned to the river embankment as if nothing had happened.

It was a coincidence that as soon as he returned, Li Zhang came with the money box.

Sun Dawang's eyes widened in surprise: "Zizai, you are so amazing! Why did you pay Foreman Li as soon as you asked him about it? What on earth did you tell him?"

Zhou Lingqi curled his lips: "It's just a coincidence."

Sun Dawang didn't know whether this was just a coincidence. Anyway, it was a great blessing to get paid.

Those of them who work hard can't make much money. Although their wages are more than those who come to do hard labor, they only earn one tael of silver for a month of exhausting work.It rained for so long this month, so the wages received were even less.

Sun Dawang took nearly half of his wages and felt a little depressed. He turned around and saw Zhou Lingqi counting copper coins one by one, which was inexplicably funny.

"Zizai, shouldn't all your wages be handed over to your wife?"

Zhou Lingqi was stunned for a moment, it wasn't quite right, but it seemed to make sense.

He glanced at the already turned off kitchen in the distance, put away the 130 and a half cents of wages, and said two words expressionlessly: "No."

Sun Dawang secretly admired him. Unlike his father, who had to hand over his wages to his mother every month, he could only carry no more than a hundred cash every time he went out. Not to mention how miserable it was!
When he gets a wife in the future, he will keep all the wages for himself like Zizai did.

The river embankment paid wages, and everyone was happy and worked harder in the afternoon.

Qin Mengshang also received his wages. He counted them carefully and found that there were 140 Wen.It's a little less, but it's okay to hire someone to make a table.

She had no pen and ink drawings, so she could only verbally describe it to Zhao Yushan. The shape was probably a modern table that could be folded and folded so that it could be carried away.

Zhao Yushan was sitting on a chair with a thin face and a piece of clothing covering his legs.After listening to Qin Mengshang's words, his eyes lit up, and then he hesitated: "I have never done anything like this. I'm afraid it won't be easy without drawings."

It was rare for Ms. Ji to see her husband showing such an expression, so she quickly said, "I've kept all the things you used to work on! There are also pens and ink, I'll get them right now!"

After saying that, Feng Fenghuohuo ran to the house to look for things.

Zhao Yushan looked at his wife's happy expression, feeling helpless and sad, and said to Qin Mengshang: "I'm making you laugh, your sister-in-law has such a personality."

"No, my sister-in-law is very good."

Qin Mengshang smiled and his eyes fell lightly on his covered legs, only staying for a moment before moving away.She didn't know medical knowledge. If her leg had just been broken, it might still be possible to stand up, but it had been so long, and even if there was hope, there was not much hope.

At this time, Ji had already brought the pen and ink, "I haven't used it for many years. I don't know if it is still useful."

"It's okay, as long as you can draw the line."

Qin Mengshang drew a table on the paper with a split-tip brush based on memory. Thinking of the kind with drawers, he asked Zhao Yushan: "Brother Zhao, can I make a drawer here?"

Zhao Yushan stared at the drawings and thought thoughtfully: "It's easy to add drawers, but if you want to fold them, you may not be able to hold anything large."

"Instead of a traditional drawer, I want to make a board that can be pulled out. I want to use it to store bottles and cans."

Zhao Yushan has been working as a carpenter for many years. At first glance, he thought it was strange. After thinking about it carefully, his eyes lit up again: "Okay, I understand!"

When he was young, he relied on this craft to make a living. Later, his legs became crippled and he could not go out to take care of the work. The whole family was supported by his wife, and he felt guilty.Now when I heard Qin Mengshang talk about it, that enthusiasm came back again.

"As long as you can do it," Qin Mengshang handed him the drawing. "How long will it take Brother Zhao to do this? I need it in the third grade of junior high school, so it's urgent."

Zhao Yushan held the drawing, his hands itching badly: "No problem, I will definitely finish it for you before the third year of junior high school!"

Ji had not seen her husband like this for a long time, and the corners of her eyes were a little moist. She was also worried that she might be too rushed in the third grade of junior high school, fearing that his body would not be able to bear it.

Zhao Yushan said, "It's not like I haven't done this job before. Although my hands are raw, I haven't forgotten everything I need to remember. I want to try it." Just this sentence of "I want to try" was enough for Ji. association.Ever since her husband broke his leg, he has been keeping himself at home. Now that he wants to give it a try, Mrs. Ji naturally agrees.

With this agreement, Qin Mengshang paid the deposit and made an appointment with Zhao Yushan to pick it up on the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year.

After settling the table matter, we still need to prepare other things.Since you are selling food, you naturally need to prepare bowls and chopsticks. Bowls can be bought in the town. As for chopsticks, if you go to the mountain to chop a piece of bamboo, you can cut dozens of pairs.

Just do it, go home, pick up a hatchet, and go up the mountain to ask General Meng to chop a bamboo.

After all this busy work, it was already dark.

When I was dragging the bamboo home, I happened to bump into Zhou Lingqi. She smiled and said to him: "My husband is back. Are you hungry? How about eating eggplant boxes tonight?"

Zhou Lingqi had never heard of eggplant boxes, but looking at Qin Mengshang's expression, he knew something was up.

really--

Qin Mengshang threw a three- to five-meter-long bamboo in front of him: "I'll leave the chopsticks to you, and I'll cook."

"." He knew that this woman had no good intentions.

Qin Mengshang threw away the task and entered the kitchen with ease.

There are a lot of eggplants at home, so you have to consume them slowly. The eggplant boxes are easy to make and delicious.Chop the meat into fillings, add some salt and ginger juice to taste, add two slices of eggplant to the batter, roll it in and put it in the pan.

Whatever is coated in oil and sugar will taste delicious.Several eggplant boxes were fried together, and the fragrance was carried out by the wind.

Jinbao, who was chasing the chickens in the yard, was the first one to rush in. He whined and circled around Qin Mengshang, tugging at the corner of her clothes and jumping up and down with his short legs to see what was on the stove. What.

"Go, go, puppies can't eat fried food."

Just as he finished speaking, the left corner of his clothes was pulled off again. When he looked down, he saw Yuan Bao sitting next to him obediently.Although he didn't jump around, his eyes seemed to say "I'm not a dog, I can eat it."

Qin Mengshang: "."

The two little guys usually sleep in the same nest. If one of them is given but not the other, they will probably fight.

To be fair, she gave neither.

At this moment, Zhou Lingqi walked in with a pile of half-finished chopsticks in his arms: "What is this?"

"." Yes, another one was hooked up.

Qin Mengshang saw that he looked calm, but in fact his eyes almost fell out of the bowl. He picked up a fried eggplant box and handed it to him: "Okay, okay, you can eat it, I'll give you one."

Zhou Lingqi felt a little strange when he heard this. However, the aroma was tempting, so he didn't think about it too much. He lowered his head and bit into the golden and crispy eggplant box.

Upon entering, His Royal Highness, who has never been too fond of food and drink, once again opened the door to a new world, and for a moment he forgot what he came in for.

Qin Mengshang saw him standing still and said, "I haven't finished cutting the chopsticks, so I can only eat one first."

Zhou Lingqi forcefully looked away from the eggplant box, turned around and walked out, walked a few steps and then stopped.

"In three days, I will go to the town with you."

　Qin Mengshang:...Am I hallucinating? ?
