Chapter 108 Live in the Present
Cuihua and the other girls' eyes almost popped out of their heads. The fruits sent by Marquis Guanjun were something they had never seen before.
Girls who have grown up in the north are very unfamiliar with southern fruits.
I heard that a certain imperial concubine in the palace loved to eat a fruit called lychee. The transportation cost of a basket of lychee could feed the people of an entire small city.
I feel that Captain Lin lives a more awesome life than a certain imperial concubine.
Cuihua: "Brother Cao Qi, can you please tell us what kind of fruits these are?"
You have to ask for the name clearly. As a subordinate of Captain Lin, you must not only be able to go to the battlefield and work in the kitchen, but also know how to use fruits and rock sugar.
Captain Lin said that women are no worse than men, and it is always better to have many skills. The more you know, the better.
Cao Qi thought to himself that these people in front of him were all Captain Lin's men, and the Marquis was counting on these people to say a few good words for him in front of Captain Lin, so they were all people who could not be offended.
Cao Qi patiently explained: "This green fruit is lime, which can be used to make sweet and sour drinks. In addition, this golden yellow one is passion fruit, which is sweet and sour. And this stinky fruit is durian, which smells bad but tastes good."
The Marquis took great pains to transport these rare fruits to Beiyue City, but he did not keep any for himself and had them all delivered to the Lin Mansion.
It is said that women who fall in love will lose their rationality. In Cao Qi's opinion, men who fall in love are also irrational.
If Captain Lin wanted the Marquis' life, the Marquis might even offer it to him with both hands.
These things about love are really crazy.
Cuihua sighed: "Our Captain Lin is probably the happiest woman in the entire Beiyue City."
The stronger the protective umbrella is, the better, so that they, the subordinates, can also win glory along the way.
Now, people like them can go to the ice sculpture park for free, and they don’t have to queue up. They can go directly through the VIP channel for five taels of silver per person.
That feeling of pride is simply indescribable.
If they had not followed Captain Lin, they would not even be able to afford the ordinary tickets at 20 wen per person. To put it bluntly, they might never be able to leave Wu County in their entire lives.
Therefore, in their hearts, they would protect Lin Qianhu 100%. If anyone dared to attack the ice sculpture garden, that person would be made to come in vertically and leave horizontally.
In the room, Lin Qianqian received a secret letter from Mother Sun.
Lin Qianqian was overjoyed when she learned that the old lady and Wang in the mansion had a fight.
"You deserve it! You should be beaten to death. You coveted my mother's dowry. Sooner or later, I will make you spit it out."
Jiang Yueying was also happy that the bad guys got their comeuppance, but this was far from enough.
"I always feel that my aunt's disappearance is also related to the Lin family. When we find out the truth in the future, we must make the Lin family pay the price."
Ever since cousin Qian took her to do business, the whole family has lived a good life.
Jiang Yueying secretly vowed to work hard to earn a lot of money, bribe capable people, and find her aunt.
My aunt’s disappearance has always been a concern for my grandfather. No matter what holiday it is, my grandmother would talk about my aunt with tears in her eyes.
When eating, she would also put an extra pair of chopsticks and an empty bowl. She knew that the chopsticks were prepared for her aunt.
In the future, he not only has to work hard to find his aunt, but also has to bribe people to beat up the Lin family to vent his anger.
Zhao Xiaoliu carried two more baskets of fruit into the house before he remembered that there was something important that he had not yet discussed.
"Miss Lin, our people have heard from the government that Prefect Xu is about to send people to the ice sculpture park to hold a grand lantern riddle event."
Jiang Yueying was a little worried after hearing this, "Cousin Qian, this is not a simple matter."
Lin Qianqian believes in living in the present, and nothing can affect her good mood.
She used a knife to cut a taro-flavored coconut and found that the coconut water inside had frozen into crystals.
This Beiyue City is really cold.
With her slender hands, she put the coconut ice into a clay pot and heated it on a small clay stove.
The ice melted after a while, and a pair of fair and beautiful hands took two purple dried Roselle flowers and put them into the ceramic jar.
The white hands were raised like orchid fingers, so beautiful that Jiang Yueying was stunned by the sight.
Lin Qianqian divided the coconut water into two small white porcelain bowls and placed a roselle in each bowl as a decoration, which was very pleasing to the eye.
Jiang Yueying: My cousin is really good at plastic surgery. She is living an extremely happy life.
I'm afraid that no girl in the entire Dayan Dynasty lives as freely and comfortably as my cousin Qian.
"Don't worry, cousin Yueying. Worrying will make you ugly. Only when you are happy can you become beautiful. Cousin, drink some coconut water."
Lin Qianqian picked up a bowl and drank it all in one breath. It really had a taro aroma and was very sweet.
Jiang Yueying was not in the mood to drink. She was disgusted by Prefect Xu.
The last time Governor Xu came to the ice sculpture garden, she was there too, and saw with her own eyes how greedy and determined he was to win.
He simply treated the ice sculpture park as his own private property, ordering this and that, and even asking how much money he could earn from ticket sales in a day.
The ticket money has nothing to do with you, Prefect Xu.
Moreover, Prefect Xu also asked where the ticket money was kept, as if the ticket money was his private property.
There are always some people in this world who don't work hard themselves, but always want to grab what others have. They are so bad.
"Cousin Qian, you should know that Prefect Xu is not interested in the bar, right?"
Lin Qianqian said with a smile: "This is a good thing! It's just right for us to share the joy with the people. If we can't even deal with Prefect Xu, we might as well give away the series of Silver Moon shops as soon as possible."
That Prefect Xu had a good plan and actually wanted to steal her ice sculpture garden.
You have to have the ability to rob, but you also have to have the life to spend it.
But then again, it’s also a good idea to organize a lantern riddle guessing activity.
She had originally planned to do the riddles a month later, but it would be the same if she did it earlier.
Lin Qianqian had heard the rumor a few days ago and knew that Prefect Xu wanted to hold a lantern riddle guessing event in the ice sculpture park.
She had someone secretly investigate and found out that Prefect Xu was quite experienced in lantern riddles.
You can show off in front of others, but if you, Prefect Xu, want to take over the ice sculpture garden by using riddles, it is absolutely impossible.
Zhao Xiaoliu: "Miss Lin, my master asked if he should use his connections to transfer Prefect Xu away?"
"Need not."
After Xu Zhifu leaves, there will be Zhang Zhifu, Li Zhifu...
All officials are corrupt. It would be better to discipline Prefect Xu and make him behave honestly if you replace him.
"Cousin Yueying, this is a good time for you to grow up. Manage the ice sculpture garden well and don't let Prefect Xu's people have the opportunity to seize any rights."
After hearing this, Jiang Yueying felt a great sense of responsibility.
"Cousin Qian, I, I can't do it alone."
"No, cousin, you can do it. You are not alone. You still have me."
Jiang Yueying recalled the first time she saw Cousin Qian outside the city, her face was covered in blood. It was said that the battle that saw the annihilation of 5,000 enemy soldiers was entirely thanks to Cousin Qian's clever ideas.
The moisturizing cream that sold for one hundred and fifty-two silver coins was also made by cousin Qian.
The work of the painting saint that earned Qin Er 100,000 taels of silver was also imitated by Cousin Qian.
In her eyes, Cousin Qian is like a myth.
So with cousin Qian as my backer, I don’t have to be afraid anymore.
"Cousin Qian, since you have my support, I will give it a try."
