Chapter 39: Really Fragrance
Shi Qingqing is now facing a difficult problem.
Five hundred yuan, take it or not.
The money in her hand seemed to exude a sweet scent, and she was telling Shi Qingqing: Please accept me, please accept me.
Shi Qingqing took a deep breath. "I don't live here, and I don't have any transportation to take you..."
"I have one. I rented a car. It can seat five people including the driver. There is an empty seat. You can put your bicycle on the back seat."
Shi Qingqing felt that things were going too smoothly.
Too much of a coincidence.
Although the money was tempting, Shi Qingqing retained some rationality and told the other party that her bicycle was too big to fit into the trunk: "Besides, it's all sand and muddy, it's better for me to ride my bicycle to lead the way for you."
"Okay." Linda had no objection.
Shi Qingqing didn't even bother to continue digging for oyster meat, and pushed her bicycle towards Linda and her friends' car.
They turned out to be a group of four people, with a driver in the car.
The moment she got closer to the car, Shi Qingqing started to get nervous again.
These people spend 500 yuan just for a meal. They don’t have any purpose.
But the money was already in her hand and she didn't get on the car.
I also have a small sharp shovel in my hand. If anything really happens, at least I have something to protect myself.
From beginning to end, those people were quite open and honest.
Shi Qingqing was driving the car, and she had a lot of thoughts in her mind along the way, but until the car stopped at the door of her house, these people did not make any offensive moves.
She seemed to have really thought too much.
Sister Xu saw that Shi Qingqing came back early and brought so many people with her. She stood not far away with the door open and looked at them.
Shi Qingqing's eyes lit up and she called Sister Xu. "Sister Xu, these tourists are looking for a place to eat. I'll trouble you to buy some good food for them. Then come to my house and make some boiled fish. I'll pay you for your work."
"Well, how much does it cost to make boiled fish? Wait, I'll go buy you some food now. If you want to cook fish, I'll buy a big one. Do you want a chicken or a duck?"
"Let's buy a bag of pork knuckles and shrimps. Forget about the chicken and duck. We have frozen chicken legs. Buy ten. You can buy other vegetables as you like."
There is enough rice and seasoning at home, so there is no need to buy extra. "Oh, and don't buy eggs, we have them at home."
Linda smiled as she watched the beautiful woman untie her scarf, revealing her full face.
This skull, this full head shape, and these facial features are a perfect combination of bone beauty and appearance beauty.
Linda wanted to raise the camera again, but Shi Qingqing had already turned around and invited them into the house.
The door was unlocked and several people entered.
It is simple, a bit simple, and there are no flowers or plants to decorate it.
But at the same time it also looks exceptionally clean.
It looks cleaner if there are fewer things.
A bed, a table, a bedside cabinet, and a "stove" built from a long desk with a hole in it that was discarded from elementary school are all the furniture in this room.
There were some basins and buckets standing against the wall in the yard, and a medium-sized water tank was covered with a wooden lid.
The dark and narrow room can be seen through from the door. It looks like a bathroom. The floor is made of cement, and there is a slightly low slope for water to flow out of the door.
This... Such a beauty lives in a place like this.
They don't match at all.
"Please sit down. I'll make you some tea." Shi Qingqing asked everyone to sit down and went out with the kettle. There was not even a partition in this small courtyard, so Shi Qingqing could only pretend to go upstairs.
In fact, the second floor is where the landlord stores sundries, and both doors are locked.
Shi Qingqing quickly clicked to buy some tea and some dried fruits, then went downstairs to boil water.
The tea was bought with fifty points, and the quantity was not much, but when those people smelled the fragrance of the tea, they still raised their eyebrows, as if they felt that this bowl of tea was very sincere.
I tried the candied fruit again and it tasted great, as if it had just been taken out of the box.
Linda did not give up the idea of taking pictures, but she knew that now was not the right time.
The driver didn't go in, squatting on the side of the road smoking, when suddenly a young man on a motorcycle approached him, handed him a cigarette and greeted him. "Hey, brother, are you here to visit relatives?"
The driver took the cigarette and said, "No, it's just a woman that the employer met on the road. He paid to have a meal at her home. The hygiene of this small restaurant is not good, and the employer doesn't like it. How come you know this family?"
"Yes, your employer is quite wealthy. How much is the meal?"
"I don't know, but it won't be less than 100 yuan. I saw her spend 10 yuan to buy a grass ring from a kid a few days ago. The grass in the grass ring was just picked randomly from the ground. People in Hong Kong really have a lot of money, unlike me, who has a hard life and drives for others."
"No, no, are you driving a four-wheeled vehicle? Look at me, I'm in my thirties and can only drive a motorcycle to carry passengers." Wu Chenggong looked at Shi Qingqing's rental house with cunning eyes and smiled meaninglessly.
After chatting for a while, he saw Sister Xu enter the yard, carrying big and small bags in her hands, and hurriedly drove away on her motorcycle.
I was so anxious that I forgot to remind the driver. The driver was almost sprayed with motorcycle exhaust. He was so angry that he chased after the man for two steps, cursing and saying, "What kind of person is this?"
Inside the house, Sister Xu brought back the ingredients, so Shi Qingqing didn't have to have awkward conversations with those people, nor did she have to endure Linda's strange and eager gaze, and started cooking with Sister Xu.
Sister Xu also used two pots in her home, one pressure cooker for cooking pig's trotters and the other for boiled fish.
Shi Qingqing blanched the shrimps and prepared the sauce, boiled the frozen chicken legs for a while, tore off the meat and stir-fried green and red peppers, and stir-fried garlic sprouts with tofu and bacon slices. Sister Xu brought over a large portion of boiled fish, a plate of spiced pig's trotters, and two small cold dishes.
There was not enough space on the table. Linda had originally just wanted to get close to Shi Qingqing and try to persuade her later. She didn't expect a good dinner.
But she didn't expect Shi Qingqing to be able to make such a delicious meal. The boiled fish alone exuded an absolute fragrance that she had never encountered before, as if she had entered the realm of spicy food.
And the rice. She remembered the first meal she had after coming to the mainland. She also thought the farmhouse rice was fresh, but when she took her first bite, she tasted dirt, which made her feel disgusted.
Later, I saw farmers using rice fields to water vegetables. Someone nearby pulled one out with a smile on his face. It turned out to be a vegetable that had just been watered.
After that, Linda became afraid of the food here.
now……
"It smells so good. This fish, Sihasha, is so tasty. Did it grow up eating chili peppers?"
"This shrimp is very fresh and sweet, and the sauce goes well with it, it's refreshing."
"This five-spice flavor is so strong, and the gravy and rice are so delicious."
Linda and her friends couldn't stop eating after this meal, and they all ate until they were full.
Sister Xu left as soon as the food was served. Why should she stay when they were entertaining guests?
After Linda finished her meal, she had no reason to stay any longer and reluctantly agreed to come back for dinner tomorrow. Shi Qingqing didn't want to make another trip back, but Linda gave her another 500 yuan, but this time she reserved lunch.
this……
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Shi Qingqing was no longer shy. She took the five hundred yuan and was about to pack some snacks for Linda to take back home when a few people hurried over from outside the yard.
She kept the door of her room and the gate of the yard wide open, as she had one last precaution.
After seeing clearly who the person was, Shi Qingqing's face instantly darkened.
