Chapter 166 Red Book Household
That being said, it's already late at night and it's not safe to go out.
The next morning, when the money shop had just opened and there were not many people on the street, Cui Qingyi Konjac took her two bodyguards, Wangcai and Heiya, to Dongxing Money Shop, the largest money shop in Dongping County.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Cui Qingyi came out and became a "red book account" of Dongxing Money House.
Today's banks use different color-coded ledgers to distinguish between different customer levels. "Red Books" are reserved for important customers, and they also receive the bank's own seal. From now on, regardless of the county in Dajin, they will have priority access to deposits and withdrawals, similar to modern black card customers.
The owner of the money shop came out from the counter and wanted to personally see Cui Qingyi out, but Cui Qingyi politely declined.
She came early in the morning just to keep a low profile. If she asked the shopkeeper to see her off personally and someone saw her, then there would be no point in keeping a low profile.
The shopkeeper immediately understood Cui Qingyi's meaning. He stood in the bank and watched his important client walk away. Then he went out and looked up at the sky. No wonder he felt refreshed when he woke up early in the morning. It turned out that an honorable person had come to visit him.
In fact, Dongxing Money House has been visited by many distinguished guests today. This is because the merchants in Dongping County are all smart and have made a lot of money by seizing the opportunity in the past few days.
Hongyan Teahouse is closed for holiday, and the girls' school will reopen the day after tomorrow. After being busy for so many days, I finally have a few days of free time.
Cui Qingyi strolled around her house for a few rounds. She first tidied up the flowers and plants, and then moved out the rocking chair that she had specially ordered for herself and Konjac some time ago and placed it under the eaves.
The weather in Dongping County was already very hot and humid in June, but fortunately the Cui family's house was well ventilated, and the rocking chair placed under the eaves could get some breeze and provide some shade.
Cui Qingyi lay on the chair, closed her eyes, and gently exerted force with her feet, and the chair began to sway back and forth.
A waterfall of black hair spread out and fell freely on Cui Qingyi's shoulders.
Konjac came out with hot tea and slowed down his movements when he saw Cui Qingyi had her eyes closed. Then he lay down on the rocking chair on the other side and suddenly felt extremely tired all over.
When Cui Qingyi had this chair customized before, she thought it took up too much space. But now she feels that her daughter really knows how to enjoy herself. She can while away the entire afternoon by rocking it in this way, seeming to fall into a daze.
Lai Fu was sleeping under the shade in the corner of the yard. When he heard the noise in the yard, he first stuck his head out to take a look. Seeing Cui Qingyi lying under the eaves, he stretched out his body, and then jumped onto Cui Qingyi's chair with light cat steps.
People who keep cats at home always seem to be able to predict the little guys' sudden attacks. When the chair suddenly shook, Cui Qingyi reached out and grabbed Lai Fu into her arms.
Lai Fu had long since grown from a frightened kitten into a mature and steady cat. He was not startled when his owner suddenly embraced him. Instead, he lay down and placed his paws on Cui Qingyi's chin.
As Cui Qingyi touched the soft hair on his neck twice, Lai Fu started snoring.
The two people and the cat fell asleep on the lounge chair under the eaves.
The leisurely chirping of cicadas in the afternoon makes this summer seem both noisy and quiet.
Cui Qingyi was awakened by the rustling noise in the woodshed.
After calming down and thinking of something, Cui Qingyi stood up and slowed down her pace as she walked towards the door of the woodshed.
In the woodshed, Wangcai rested his two front paws on the wall, stretching his body to pull out the basket hanging on the wall. The basket was filled with potatoes that Cui Qingyi had bought from the Beijia Trading Company.
Perhaps his desire for potatoes surpassed everything else, so even though Wangcai knew that Cui Qingyi had discovered it, he didn't care and was only focused on pulling the basket on the wall.
For the first time, Cui Qingyi felt speechless when she saw Wangcai. It wasn't someone's dog eating potatoes. What was so delicious about eating that thing raw?
In the end, Wangcai was ruthlessly driven out of the woodshed by Cui Qingyi, and the door of the woodshed was locked with a click in Wangcai's resentful eyes.
Wangcai's furry dog face was full of confusion. He didn't quite understand why his owner, who had always spoiled him, would treat him so cruelly. The big dog, who always held his head high and chest puffed out, now hung his head and tail and became autistic alone.
Cui Qingyi looked at her dog, which had become clever and could act, and felt helpless and could only put potato planting on the agenda.
As her dog, all she wanted was to eat some potatoes, so why couldn't she get what she wanted?
Fortunately, it is only June now and the climate in Dongping County is mild, so it is not a big deal if we plant late and harvest late.
There are only a dozen potatoes, which can be planted in the backyard of the house. But considering Wangcai's current obsession with potatoes, Cui Qingyi is afraid that all the potatoes planted will be eaten by Wangcai.
The quality of these potatoes was not high, with only one sprout barely growing on each potato. In fact, there was not much difference between potatoes of this quality that could be grown into seedlings or not, but Cui Qingyi was a very optimistic person, so she thought, what if?
Put a dozen potatoes with the sprouted part facing up and bury them all in the fertile soil in the backyard. It can be said to be very simple and crude.
Wangcai followed Cui Qingyi closely, and when he saw his beloved food being buried in the soil, he howled to the sky in heartbreak.
Cui Qingyi grabbed Wangcai's big head and tried to reason with him. Fortunately, Wangcai witnessed the whole process of the peppers growing in the backyard. After Cui Qingyi patiently explained, Wangcai tilted his big head and whimpered a few times, and stopped digging the potatoes in the soil.
Cui Qingyi didn't know whether Wangcai understood what she meant, but she assumed that Wangcai understood. As for whether their family could eat potatoes in the future, it all depended on God's will.
Konjac slept soundly that night. When he woke up in the yard, he found himself covered with a thin coat. The cats and dogs that used to be noisy were now quiet.
She didn't get up in a hurry, but turned her head to look towards the kitchen, and sure enough, she saw a faint mist floating out of the kitchen.
Wangcai and Heiya, mother and son, were holding a big bone and chewing it quietly. Lai Fu was lying on the wall of the yard with his limbs spread out, his tail twitching, looking relaxed and comfortable.
The sky is filled with red clouds, and it is the most beautiful sunset in summer.
For dinner, Cui Qingyi made cold noodles with shredded chicken. The handmade noodles were chewy and smooth after being rinsed with cold water. Paired with Cui Qingyi's specially prepared spicy garlic sauce and finely shredded cucumber, one bite made you feel like all the summer heat had disappeared.
After finishing a bowl of noodles, Konjac couldn't help but sigh, "This chili really goes well with everything."
Cui Qingyi nodded in agreement, "If you like it, we can make it again in a few days."
There are still some peppers at home, and soon the two acres of peppers in the field will mature one after another. Then we can eat as much as we want.
