Chapter 21 Picking Cucumbers
"Xiaoxiao, come and see if the suit your godmother prepared for you fits you. We will be wearing mother-and-child outfits, so we will definitely attract a lot of attention." Chen Youyou waved happily at Luo Xiao.
"Of course what godmother chose is not bad. It looks very nice and I like it very much. Thank you, godmother." Luo Xiao answered affirmatively. He looked at the clothes specially prepared for him and was very happy.
"Hehe, as long as you like it, as long as you like it, then the two of us will wear mother-and-son outfits, and Cheng Chen and his son will wear father-and-son outfits. Our family of four will definitely be the best looking in the whole venue, especially our Xiaoxiao's face, which gets more handsome and beautiful as it gets older." Chen Youyou liked the look no matter how she looked at it.
I have to admit that she is obsessed with looks, and Luo Xiao's appearance particularly suits her taste.
They also met in the first year, and after spending more time with each other, they naturally became godparents. Over the past three years, they have visited each other more frequently, including the Chinese New Year, which Luo Xiao spent almost entirely at Cheng Chen's home. Cheng's parents took them out as if they had given birth to two sons.
Relatives on both sides also treated Luo Xiao as their own child.
It can be said that he has a family again in this life.
"What are you two doing? Why don't you go try on clothes? How about my and Cheng Chen's clothes? Are we handsome?" Cheng Tian walked out wearing a custom-made suit, followed by Cheng Chen.
"It's too late yet, honey, you're wearing a nice outfit, especially your figure..." Chen Youyou said teasingly.
She is obsessed with looks, and she was chased by a man who looked like a member of the Black Society. It must be said that this is fate. . . .
Cheng Tian was not angry when he heard what his wife said. He had known for a long time that his wife was obsessed with looks. He had spent so much effort to pursue her, so he had to treat her better. Otherwise, if she dumped him, he would have nowhere to cry.
So he didn't say anything back to his wife, he just laughed.
At the same time, he made up his mind to exercise well to maintain the abdominal muscles that his wife likes.
"Mom, Xiao, how about my clothes? Am I handsome?" Cheng Chen posed and asked them in a funny way.
"It's handsome, quite handsome. Come on, Xiaoxiao, let's go change, it will definitely look better than what they wear." Chen Youyou handed the clothes to Luo Xiao.
"Yeah, okay." Luo Xiao took the clothes and went to change them.
As expected, Luo Xiao and the others looked stunning after they changed into their clothes.
Because they were left behind and Chen Youyou was taken away by Cheng Tian.
The two of them looked at each other and went back to their rooms to change clothes.
After changing their clothes, the two of them didn't stay at home as a third wheel, but rode their bicycles out directly.
The place they were heading was towards the north, which was the direction of Luo Xiao's village.
I don't do much when I return to the village, just pick vegetables. After this time, I won't have the chance to plant them here again.
After all, the house was going to be demolished, but only Luo Xiao knew the truth about this.
Because their demolition was not like other places where there were rumors early on, but it was very sudden, as if overnight, there was news of the demolition, and then it was demolished very quickly.
It happened so fast that it seemed like a dream, but the fact was that it was indeed demolished.
"Xiao, there are popsicles for sale. Let's go later and eat the whole popsicle first." Cheng Chen saw the person selling popsicles from a distance and called Luo Xiao.
"The one with glutinous rice." Luo Xiao said directly that he liked it.
"Okay, if you don't have glutinous rice, I'll get you red bean ones." Cheng Chen said without looking back and drove towards the place where popsicles were sold.
However, he came back soon.
Because the other party's popsicles were sold out, he returned empty-handed.
"Don't be discouraged. There should be popsicles at the store at the entrance of the village when you pass by it later." Luo Xiao comforted him.
"Well, this is the only way." Cheng Chen felt a little regretful.
Luo Xiao handed him a bottle of water from his backpack, which was the space well water he had put in his thermos.
Over the past three years, he would look for opportunities to get some space well water for Cheng's parents to use, using the excuse that he had found some good spring water while climbing the mountain.
Because when he and Cheng Chen went to fetch water together, they immediately switched to an identical bucket to fill the water while Cheng Chen was not paying attention, so he was never suspected of anything.
The two of them were like habits. Cheng Chen loved to buy popsicles for him, and Luo Xiao would take out two while drinking water.
"Hehe, Xiao, every time the water you bring out tastes better." Cheng Chen grinned after drinking it.
"That's because you didn't buy the popsicles. They just moisten your throat and make you feel delicious when you drink them." Luo Xiao fooled him.
"That's right." Cheng Chen stuffed the half-empty cup of water into his bag.
The two chatted as they rode their bicycles forward.
When we arrived at the entrance of the village, the store was selling popsicles, but they were only sugar popsicles, the kind made with saccharin.
Neither of them was interested and did not buy it.
As soon as he got home and entered the yard, Cheng Chen rushed into the vegetable garden and took out two cucumbers.
Luo Xiao drew water from the well, washed two cucumbers, and gave one to each of them to fill their stomachs first.
"Vegetables that I grow myself are still the most delicious!" Cheng Chen sighed after eating a cucumber.
"You think pickled cucumbers will taste better if they are made into pickled cucumbers later. Hurry up and pick them and take them back to make pickled cucumbers. My aunt was asking about pickled cucumbers the day before yesterday." Luo Xiao motioned for him to work quickly.
In the past few years, ever since they had eaten the pickled cucumbers made by Luo Xiao, they had been missing them so much. However, they only grew cucumbers and no other crops in the vegetable garden at home. Every time they made pickled cucumbers, no matter how much they made, there was never enough to share.
Even though Luo Xiao had been reducing the amount of well water used to irrigate the vegetable garden, his cooking skills had improved.
In his previous life, he was able to successfully become a food anchor without showing his face, so it can be imagined that his cooking skills are not bad.
Even with the same recipe, different people will produce different results, especially those who have eaten all kinds of delicious food and are picky eaters.
"It's not like we don't have any in the factory. I'm always thinking about what you're making. It's just the same formula..."
Cheng Chen curled his lips.
That’s right, a factory for making pickled cucumbers and other pickles has been opened. The recipe was provided by Luo Xiao, who invested in the company with the recipe and holds 20% of the shares.
Originally they wanted to give him 40%, but Luo Xiao didn't want it. After bargaining, they insisted that he accept 20% of the shares.
"Don't you like what I do too?" Luo Xiao glanced at him.
It's just like the pot calling the kettle black.
His words made Cheng Chen laugh.
The movement of picking cucumbers became faster.
