Chapter 1727 Ask Xiaoxiao
When Liu heard the captain's words, she did not immediately agree. Instead, she said to the captain, "Captain, my craft was taught to me by someone else. I cannot teach this craft to others without that person's consent. So you asked me to go back and ask the person who taught me the craft. If she says that I can teach the craft to others, then I will take the task."
After hearing what Liu said, the captain thought that the rain had not stopped yet and the rice could not be harvested, so he agreed to let Liu go back and ask.
After Liu returned home, she called Liu Ermei over and told her what she had just said to the captain, wanting Liu Ermei to help her make a decision.
"Mom, you just said that it was Xiaoxiao who told the captain that you could make maltose?" Liu Ermei asked Liu after hearing what she said.
"Yes, it was Xiaoxiao who told the captain that I could make maltose."
"Since it was Xiaoxiao who told the captain that you can make maltose, then we just need to ask Xiaoxiao if she wants to take on the task."
"Then let's go find Xiaoxiao now, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight because of this."
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao was about to take the dishes to the kitchen to wash after dinner, she heard a knock on the door, so she had to put the dishes back on the kang table and go to the yard with an umbrella to open the door.
"Second sister, aunt, why are you here? Come in quickly." When Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door to the yard, she saw Liu Ermei and Liu Shi wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats, so she immediately said to them.
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Ermei and Liu immediately went into the yard. Then they took off their raincoats and put them under the eaves, and then went into the main room.
It’s no wonder they were going so fast, it was raining so heavily.
"Second sister, aunt, drink this bowl of ginger soup quickly to get rid of the cold." After Lu Xiaoxiao entered the main room, she went to the kitchen and filled two bowls of ginger soup. She then handed them to Liu Ermei and Liu, and told them to drink it quickly because the ginger soup would be more effective if it was drunk while hot.
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Ermei and Liu Shi reached out to take the ginger soup that Lu Xiaoxiao handed to them, and then drank it in small sips.
After seeing Liu Ermei finish drinking the ginger soup, Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Ermei, "Ermei, what's the matter with you coming to see me in the heavy rain?"
"Xiaoxiao, actually it's not me who wants to talk to you, it's my mom who wants to talk to you."
"Yes, yes, I have something to talk to you about." After hearing Liu Ermei's words, Mrs. Liu quickly agreed.
"Aunt, what do you want to talk to me about? Tell me."
When Liu heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, she repeated what the captain had said to her, and then she asked Lu Xiaoxiao to help her make a decision.
"Aunt, you can take on this task. It will be good for your family." Lu Xiaoxiao said after listening to Liu's words.
The reason why she told the captain that Liu could make maltose was to let the captain give the task of making maltose to Liu.
"Mom, listen to Xiaoxiao. Since she said she can take over the task, then you should take it over."
"Okay, I'll go tell the captain that I've accepted the mission."
"Aunt, don't rush to tell the captain that you agreed to take on the mission. You need to let the captain come to you on his own initiative."
"Why?"
"Because of your homestead, my second sister told me that the captain did not agree to grant you the homestead that your family had set their eyes on. Now you can use this incident to ask the captain to grant you the homestead."
