Chapter 41: Fluctuations of Thought (Part 2)

A few minutes later, Shi Qingqing had taken the shoes apart and turned them back into a ball of thread.

Add some more thread and then go back and crochet a pair of gloves for yourself.

In fact, she originally wanted to cut it into pieces with a pair of scissors.

But these lines also cost money, and I am reluctant to waste them for Shi Caihong.

Shi Qingqing put down the ball of thread and took out the more than 500 yuan she had earned today and counted them one by one.

With these five hundred, I can earn enough to buy that n-hand boat. If I cook a meal tomorrow, I can get another five hundred.

Thinking of Linda's generosity, Shi Qingqing sighed that rich people... really have a sense of relaxation that doesn't regard money as money.

Moreover, compared with my own defense, the other party was really natural, eating strangers' food and going to strangers' houses.

Is it so important for her to capture the scene she wants to capture?

When will she be able to feel this relaxed?

She felt that it was a huge sacrifice just to give away some cheap candies as a favor in exchange for selling goods.

She cleaned up the leftovers on the table, washed and scalded the dishes and chopsticks, removed the bones from all the leftovers and put the rest into the slop bucket.

Since the typhoon, she doesn't need to take over the washing of the dishes at home as long as Zhao Fengnian is there.

If Zhao Fengnian were here today, even if he couldn't beat his mother-in-law, he could beat that shifty Wu Chenggong.

"Zhao Fengnian." Shi Qingqing curled up in bed, feeling that the temperature was particularly low today.

The next day, Shi Qingqing felt a little dizzy. She felt something was wrong and quickly made a cup of Isatis root granules and drank it.

I gulped down the hot, slightly sweet water that was brewed with the granules, and I seemed to feel better.

Since she had guests at noon, she decided not to go to the beach as she would not make it in time.

She went out to buy groceries herself, and remembered a few dishes from her dream, but she stopped.

I am just an ordinary woman from a small village, where do I get so many tricks from?

Just...eat a versatile dish and have hot pot

It can also be called hot pot, but hot pot generally requires carefully prepared soup base and does not have a spicy taste.

However, judging from yesterday's dinner, those people can eat some spicy food. Especially Linda, who has a more powerful position among the three of them, can eat spicier food than the average local.

Moreover, the hot pot colander and large pair of chopsticks can be used as serving chopsticks, which is also in line with Linda's eating habits.

So Shi Qingqing bought a chicken to make soup, and also bought some Dongxia hotpot base. She also bought a split pot at the vegetable market and some various ingredients to go with it.

Although it was early December, due to the climate, she could still see a lot of green vegetables. She bought some casually. Someone was selling the king oyster mushrooms, which had become popular in the past two years, so she bought some too.

After that are local specialties such as pork balls, fish balls, fish cakes, and fist-shaped pork. However, the fist-shaped pork is shipped from Shenzhen Town and the price is slightly higher than ordinary pork products.

I also bought some of the freshest seafood on the roadside, such as a lot of tofu fish, which is very suitable for frying. The fish meat is soft and the fish bones can be easily chewed after frying.

It is very suitable to be used as a side dish.

Live by the mountain, eat from the mountain; live by the sea, eat from the sea. It is not at all embarrassing to entertain guests with seafood.

Shi Qingqing bought a lot and didn't even spend the hundred yuan.

On the way home, she used the last two dollars to buy a small stall, where the old lady sold coriander that she grew herself.

The leaves are relatively small, but the fragrance is not weak at all.

When she got home and just finished stewing the soup, a car stopped in front of Shi Qingqing's house. Linda was wearing a more casual suit today, which made her look more approachable.

I don't know what I was thinking before, but I wore leather shoes on the beach, and I don't know how much sand I brought into the beach when I walked.

She brought some wine today, but Shi Qingqing didn't drink any. After the hot pot came, everyone basically helped themselves, except for occasionally asking if this was cooked or that was cooked.

After the meal, everyone said it was worth it.

Shi Qingqing remained silent. Since we have different values, just don’t spoil the fun.

After dinner, Linda sent the other two away first. Taking advantage of the absence of a third person, she again asked for filming, but Shi Qingqing still refused.

Linda spread her hands helplessly: "Okay, I respect your opinion, but if you change your mind one day, you can contact me through this person."

As he spoke, he handed over a simple card with Mr. Wang's contact information printed on it.

Mr. Wang’s title is general manager of a packaging company.

Linda left reluctantly.

She will be going to another city for field research in two days, and then will return directly to Hong Kong City.

"In fact, the food here is also very delicious. Some of the dishes taste similar to ours, but what I miss most is probably the fresh, fragrant and spicy feeling... Ms. Shi Qingqing, I hope I can come to your house for dinner again if I have the chance."

"Okay, I won't charge you any money then." Shi Qingqing was also happy to say something pleasing to the ear.

Linda smiled, turned around, got in the car and left.

Shi Qingqing held the red envelope that the other person gave her again before leaving. Some people may not spend much money on you even after living with you for decades, while some people may give you thousands of yuan as a reward just for eating two meals with you.

She admitted that Linda's repeated invitations did make her waver for a moment. Compared with the points and tasks that required a lot of effort, this quick cash flow was really hard to resist.

Maybe if the other party gives her 500 yuan a few more times, she would be willing to take the photo out of courtesy.

But, no.

Haihuo Mall must not be discovered.

Even if a visitor comes to their home for a meal, he will be targeted by the family and they will try to extract any possible benefits from him.

What if I was discovered in Haihuo Mall when I had no ability to resist...

Well, before you really become someone with a say, don't be dazzled by the possible income. The money is in your hands and the house is yours. You can consider other issues then.

But people like Linda really seem like people from another world. Compared to her family who only has a shabby house and is still worried about being harmed by others, Linda is frank and direct. She expresses her joy, anger, sorrow and happiness whenever she wants. She does not have the "unbearable consequences" that most poor people have.

You know, even if it's just a broken bowl, many people will still be frightened, fearing the "consequences" that may not come.

The experience of making a lot of money did not affect Shi Qingqing too much.

She still ate ordinary meals, lived in a cheap rental house, had no thoughts of buying gold or silver, and the next morning she still carried her tools to do her tasks.

The wind in the early morning is still very powerful.

Shi Qingqing performed monotonous and repetitive movements over and over again. When her hands felt sore, she would immediately switch hands. She repeated this for half a day, but could only lift a few pounds.

This was repeated for only two days, and there was no need to mine this beach anymore, so Shi Qingqing rode her bike a little further.

Before we knew it, it was the last day of early December. During this period, Shi Qingqing changed two more beaches.

While she was busy working for 50 kilograms of oyster meat, Shi Caihong was particularly quiet. Not only did she not come to disturb her, but even if she saw her from a distance on the road, she would walk the other way.

This discovery made Shi Qingqing feel much better.

It turns out that as long as you don't care about the follow-up with a person and are a little more willing, you can cut off this negative contact with just one sentence.

When Shi Qingqing came back that day, Sister Xu waved at her mysteriously again. "Xiao Shi, do you want a refrigerator?"

refrigerator?

"Yes, the refrigerator." Sister Xu said that she learned about it from a friend she knew. An old local man was moving to the city to live with his children. He wanted to sell his house here and was also looking for a buyer for his furniture.

"I've seen that refrigerator. I think it will cost a few dozen dollars to repair it. It can be used for a few years. If you want it, come with me. It's better to do it sooner rather than later.

I was attracted by his washing machine. Although the cover was gone, it was still usable. It had been used for seven or eight years and was very cheap. He also had a color TV, so I wanted to buy it too. "

Shi Qingqing was a little surprised. Sister Xu was always busy picking vegetable leaves and pickling chili peppers to make sauerkraut, but she could be so generous as to buy a washing machine and a color TV at once?
