Chapter 65: Making a Wish
The two of them were so angry that they slapped their thighs, looking like they were full of regret.
A hint of anticipation appeared on the face of the square-faced aunt. She said to the round-faced aunt, "Let's go talk to Su Su now and ask her to teach us how to make soap. Do you think she will agree?"
The round-faced aunt curled her lips and said, "She's narrow-minded and will definitely not agree to our request! Just think about what happened to Fang Yingqiu and Shen Baifeng before."
The square-faced aunt was deflated.
Seeing the other aunts so happy, she felt extremely jealous.
If we are to be poor, let us all be poor together!
Why should I be poor while others are getting rich?!
The square-faced man rolled his eyes, leaned closer to the round-faced aunt, and whispered, "I have a way to stop them from doing this business!"
The round-faced auntie suddenly became interested and urged, "Tell me quickly, what is the solution?"
The square-faced aunt came closer and said, "We can do this..."
The round-faced aunt's eyes lit up and she said, "Okay, let's do it!"
…
At this time, Su Su had returned to her new house.
She sat in the pavilion and watched the fish swimming around. Her originally tense mind gradually relaxed.
It’s better to stay at home!
Relaxed and comfortable!
After resting, Susu took out the materials and tools for making soap from the space and placed them on the stone table.
The ordinary soaps are left to the aunts to make, and she specializes in making special customized soaps.
There are many different styles of soap templates in the space.
Including grapes, peonies, bears...
Su Su made a batch of each type of soap so that they could be displayed as samples on the counter.
Before he knew it, Qin Xutao came back.
Seeing Su Su sitting in the pavilion, Qin Xutao went into the room to get a coat, walked up to her, put it on her, and said, "Be careful not to catch a cold."
Su Su looked up and saw that it was Qin Xutao, and said with sparkling eyes:
"Look! Are these soaps I made beautiful?"
Qin Xutao's eyes fell on the table, a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "Are these soaps? I thought they were fruits!"
Knowing that the man was coaxing her, Su Su put on a satisfied smile on her face.
"These soaps are to be taken to department store counters as samples."
"A normal bar of soap can be sold for 4.5 yuan, but one like this can even be sold for 10 yuan."
"Don't go on such dangerous missions anymore. I'll support you."
Qin Xutao's lips curled up unconsciously and he smiled: "Okay!"
"But it's already evening, and it's dark outside. If you want to continue making soap, you'd better go inside with the lights on. Otherwise, it will hurt your eyes outside."
Su Su stretched, nodded, and said, "I'm almost done. I can finish the rest tomorrow. Let's go eat now! What delicious food did you bring me?"
Qin Xutao placed the lunch boxes on the table one by one.
The food in the military district canteen was as rich as ever, with pepper and salt pig's trotters, sauerkraut blood sausage, three fresh vegetables, and tiger dish. The staple foods included white flour buns and corn grits porridge.
Su Su suddenly felt even hungrier.
While eating, Su Su suddenly thought of a question. She turned her eyes and looked at Qin Xutao and said, "Will you dislike me for not cooking?"
Qin Xutao pursed his lips, his eyes fell on Su Su, and said, "Why do you say that?"
The man's eyes were too focused, Su Su looked away uncomfortably and said:
"I see that the other aunts in the military compound would prepare special meals for their husbands, but you always go to the military cafeteria to get food for me, and you even ask the chef to make one or two extra dishes."
Qin Xutao's eyes flashed with tenderness, and he said, "Susu, I enjoy doing this."
"But if you get tired of it, or if there's something you want to eat, remember to tell me, don't hold it back."
Su Su nodded.
Very satisfied with the man's answer.
Her eyes sparkled, and she suddenly leaned forward and kissed the man on the cheek.
"Qin Xutao, you are so kind!"
"Well, I have to say now, although the xiaolongbao and shengjianbao you make are very delicious, I have been eating them for several days in a row and I am a little tired of them!"
"So tomorrow morning I want to eat fried dough sticks and drink soy milk, is that okay?"
A smile flashed across Qin Xutao's eyes.
After dinner, Qin Xu Tao cleaned up the dishes as usual, while Su Su sat in the yard with some fruits on the table next to them.
There wasn’t much pollution in that era, the sky was very clean, and you could see the twinkling stars.
Su Su looked up at the sky and felt calm and peaceful in her heart.
"Qin Xutao, come over here and take a look!"
"It's actually a shooting star! I want to make a wish!"
Qin Xutao sat down next to Su Su, and following the direction of her finger, he saw a shooting star.
He turned his head and his eyes fell on Su Su.
Under the moonlight, the girl's skin was fair and shiny. She closed her eyes, her curled eyelashes trembled slightly, her hands were clasped in front of her chest, she was muttering something, and she looked serious.
Opening her eyes, Su Su saw Qin Xutao had been looking at her. The tips of her ears turned red and she said, "I heard that if you make a wish on a shooting star, your wish will come true. But don't ask me what it is, because it won't work if I tell you."
"Okay, stop looking at me and make a wish too!"
At Su Su's urging, Qin Xutao closed his eyes.
Qin Xutao couldn't help but curl his lips when he noticed the girl's eyes were on him. When he opened his eyes, Su Su asked curiously, "What wish did you make?"
Qin Xutao's eyes were deep, and he looked at Su Su and said:
"It won't work if you tell me about it."
Su Su: “…”
She finally understood what it meant to shoot herself in the foot.
In the moonlight, the man's eyes followed her closely.
Suddenly, Su Su had an idea.
She curved her eyebrows and said to Qin Xutao, "Let me guess, your wish must be about me! Right?"
Qin Xutao didn't say anything, but his eyes became more and more profound.
Just when Su Su thought she was wrong, a man's low and hoarse voice came to her ears:
"Yes, it's all about you."
