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

Chapter 64 The Misunderstanding Is Too Deep
The county magistrate came and left in great numbers.

After everyone received the reward, they worked harder.Those who had quit the patrol before now regretted it. They should not have quit in the first place if they had known there was a reward.Helping the village patrol for thirty cents a day is much easier than doing hard labor.

After much thought, the hot-eyed person approached Li Zheng and said he wanted to join the patrol team again.

The river embankment will be completed in September. When the weather slowly cools down, it will be hard to find work. Of course, we must try to find work while there is work in the village.Earn a few more copper coins and buy some candies for your children during the Chinese New Year.

Li Zheng is not a person who holds grudges.The patrol team belongs to the village. If someone wants to join, you can't refuse it, but not everyone can join, such as Tian Youliang.

"Forget about those who were lazy before! You can't take care of yourself, so you don't need to take care of the village's affairs!"

Everyone knew who he was referring to.

Tian Youliang curled his lips: "Oh, go to Jiangkou to move goods for forty cents a day. Who cares about thirty cents a day?"

Sour grapes.He doesn't care about it, but there are many people who care about it.

Among the young people who came today, there were three or four who were quick at work, and Li Zheng kept them all.Including the people from Lao Chen's family, the patrol team has a total of 12 people.They work in groups of six and change positions every three days, and wages are calculated based on the number of days.

The affairs of the patrol team were settled smoothly, and Qin Mengshang also started busy making konjac tofu.

I haven't gone to the mountains to dig konjac for more than half a month, and the small konjac trees that were originally there have suddenly grown taller.Qin Mengshang and Lu Ximing rummaged through almost the entire mountain and dug out four or five huge konjacs, which roughly estimated to weigh twenty kilograms.

Tomorrow we have to go to Changxing Restaurant to deliver the goods, so we have to make them all today.

The two worked hard all afternoon, and then invited Ji to help. They worked until it was dark, and then all the konjac was thrown into the pot to cook.

Qin Mengshang wanted to stay with Ji for dinner, but the family was still waiting for her to go back to cook, so he declined.

Qin Mengshang didn't force himself and took out the only piece of meat left at home and went into the kitchen.After eating the braised pork several times, I got tired of it, so today I tried a new trick and made a handful of pork.Now that I have money saved at home, it’s okay to indulge in my cravings every once in a while.

Jin Bao, who was guarding the door, immediately rushed over wagging his tail when he saw Rou. After raising him for more than a month, the little guy has grown up a lot.It's just that the ring of hair on his face is a different color from the rest of his body, making him look like he's wearing a mask.

Qin Mengshang knew that the child was about to reach the embarrassing stage, but he did not dislike it for being ugly, so he said: "Go aside for now, and I will give you a big piece to eat later."

Jinbao whined twice and sat down to watch.

Qin Mengshang washed the meat, put down the pot to blanch it, threw the eggs in and cooked them, then peeled the shells and put them into the pot to stew with the meat.In fact, what she craves the most is the green chili stewed in the meat until it becomes soft and tender.I ate it once in my previous life and couldn't forget it. Unfortunately, there are no peppers now, so I had to give up.

Things are busy here, and Zhou Lingqi is also back.

In recent days, the river embankment has been in a hurry to finish work, and Zhou Lingqi didn't have time to come back for lunch at noon. When he walked in and smelled the enticing aroma of meat, the glutton in his stomach was immediately awakened.He couldn't help but move closer, his eyes falling on the steaming pot: "What is this for?"

Qin Mengshang threw the cabbage and boiled eggs into the pot, and said without looking back: "A handful of meat."

Zhou Lingqi didn't answer or leave, which made it obvious.

With such a big man standing next to him, Qin Mengshang could hardly see the meat in the pot. He pushed him away speechlessly: "Block the light and stand far away."

Zhou Lingqi was pushed back by her and happened to step on Jinbao's tail. The little guy immediately jumped up and barked, and hit Qin Mengshang's leg like a cannon barrel.

She was startled and was about to fall back before she could stand firmly.

Zhou Lingqi quickly grabbed her with quick eyes and hands. The two of them were very close, and Qin Mengshang accidentally bumped into his arms.

Not to mention anything else, this collision almost broke her nose!It turns out that this man is not only tough with his mouth, but also very tough all over.

"Zhou Lingqi, you did it on purpose!" "."

He swears, he really didn't mean to.

Just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden bang from the other side.The two of them turned around and saw Lu Ximing covering his forehead and running away quickly as if he was being chased by a ghost. There was a sentence behind him: "Sister, I went out to fetch water. I'll come back later -"

Qin Mengshang: "."

Why carry water when it's dark?

She belatedly looked at Zhou Lingqi. When she raised her head, she realized how close the two of them were.From such a close distance, you could even clearly see your own reflection in his pupils.

Qin Mengshang's cheeks felt a little hot, either from the heat in the pot or from the lingering heat of autumn. He stiffly withdrew his hand and said, "The dishes are going to be burnt. Go get a bowl."

Zhou Lingqi looked at his empty hands, said nothing, turned around and got the bowl.

Lu Ximing, who went out to fetch water, waited for half an hour before coming back. People who usually talk a lot stopped talking now and sat quietly behind the stove to catch fleas for Jinbao, trying to reduce his sense of presence. .

Qin Mengshang originally thought it was nothing, but being treated so badly by Lu Ximing made it seem like there was something between her and Zhou Lingqi.

She took out a bowl of meat and said to Lu Ximing, "Stop playing tricks and give this to Sister-in-law Zhao."

At the end, he added: "Come back early for dinner, otherwise it will be gone if you are late."

Hearing these next words, the tips of Lu Ximing's ears turned slightly red and he nodded gently: "I know, sister."

After saying that, he held the bowl and went to Zhao's house.

Qin Mengshang was embarrassed by his expression. The misunderstanding was too deep and he couldn't explain it clearly.

Because of this incident, she didn't want to talk to Zhou Lingqi all night, and even the handful of meat she had been craving for for a long time was a bit unpalatable.

I ate this meal absentmindedly in the evening, packed my things for going to town tomorrow, and rolled into bed early to sleep.

But there are some things that you shouldn't think about, and these thoughts pop up one after another like mushrooms after spring.

After lying down for a long time, my mind is clearer than when I was counting money, and my senses often become extra sensitive at this time.

Details that you would not pay attention to in normal times are magnified countless times at this moment, such as the rustling sound of clothes and the unique smell of vegetation on the man's body.

Qin Meng Shang became numb and said quietly: "Can you please lower your voice?"

Zhou Lingqi, who had just untied his belt, said: "?"

".Forget it, it's not your fault."

It's not a good thing if your roommate is too good-looking. She is young and energetic. If something unexpected happens one day, it will definitely not be her fault.

Qin Mengshang let out a deep breath, turned over, closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.

Zhou Lingqi, who was standing by the bed, looked puzzled. He stared at her for a while, then took off his coat and went to bed gently.
