Chapter 273: The Will-O-Wisp Boy is a boy with ghostly eyes that makes people angry
After warming up the wine and washing up, I walked to the kitchen. When I smelled the fragrance of the buns, I couldn't help but praise, "Qingqing, you are amazing! These buns are so fragrant. I want to eat three today."
Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "Okay! I just steamed three different flavors. Sister-in-law, please stand aside. I'm afraid I'll burn you."
Seeing that the warm wine had receded, Lu Qingqing scooped some cold water into a bowl and placed it on the stove. She opened the lid of the pot and put it aside. She dipped her hand in water and pressed it on the buns. Seeing that the indentation she pressed quickly bounced back, she nodded.
"Sister-in-law, the buns are ready. Please help me take out the salted vegetables. I'll pick the buns."
Wenjiu nodded, "Okay, be careful not to get burned when you pick up the buns."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law."
"I'm very familiar with this matter."
Lu Qingqing was very calm. She wet her hands with cold water and quickly picked out the buns from the steamer. Soon she picked out six buns and took them outside to place on the table.
The rice porridge is almost dry now, so it's a good idea to drink it now without burning your mouth.
The two of them talked while eating.
Wen Jiu asked curiously, "Qingqing, how do you judge whether the buns are cooked?"
How can you know it by just one click?
What is the principle behind this?
Lu Qingqing didn't know either. She took a bite of the bun and shook her head, saying, "I don't know. I watched my mom do it this way. She always did it so accurately, so I followed her and learned from her."
"So that's how it is!"
I was drinking wine and saw the juice in the buns was flowing out, so I lowered my head to wash it all clean. The rich meat flavor was wrapped with the fragrance of radish. I took a bite and the soft and glutinous dough wrapped with the fragrant meat filling entered my mouth. It was so delicious.
"Sister-in-law, please eat slowly or you won't choke." Seeing how deliciously he drank the warm wine, Lu Qingqing felt a special sense of accomplishment.
I feel like my work was not in vain.
The two of them ate two buns each. Wenjiu didn't fulfill his ambitious plan to eat three, and lay paralyzed on the sofa, holding his stomach, to digest the food.
"Qingqing, your cooking skills are really good. If you open a bun shop, your business will definitely be booming."
She wanted to eat more after eating it, as if there was an addictive drug in the bun.
It's a pity that there is no room in my stomach.
Lu Qingqing was cleaning up the dishes. When she heard Wen Jiu's words, she turned around and smiled shyly, "That's because you're flattering me, sister-in-law. I'm not as good as you say! If I open a shop, I'll probably go bankrupt in less than three days."
"How is that possible?"
"When did your sister-in-law ever lie to you?"
"Qingqing in our family is the most gentle and powerful girl in the world."
Wenjiu spoke with great certainty. When Lu Qingqing first arrived here, she was timid and nervous, always afraid that she would cause trouble for Wenjiu. But with Wenjiu's encouragement and affirmation, she became more and more confident and dared to express her own ideas.
Loving someone is like growing flowers.
The more careful you are, the more beautiful it will bloom.
Wenjiu lay on the sofa for a while, and felt that he could not do it this way or he would gain weight, so he stood up and walked to digest the food. He saw that the sleeves of Lu Qingqing's clothes were a little short, so he turned back to the bedroom and took out two bags.
Lu Qingqing was wearing clothes she brought from home, with a patch on her back, but it still couldn't hide her beautiful and gentle face.
Seeing her coming out of the room, I handed the bag in my hand to her as if it were a treasure, warming the wine.
"Try it on your sister-in-law?"
"Sister-in-law, you..." Seeing Lu Qingqing frowning, Wen Jiu interrupted her impatiently.
"Lu Qingqing, don't whine to me. I've said those words eight hundred times. If you don't find it annoying, then I will! Go and try it now, don't make me angry with you."
Seeing that Wenjiu was unhappy, Lu Qingqing swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and quickly returned to the room to try on the clothes Wenjiu gave her.
Wenjiu matched her with two sets of clothes, one was a white sweatshirt with a black coat and blue flared jeans, and the other was a green thick sweatshirt with black tights, and two pairs of shoes.
“Sister-in-law…”
Lu Qingqing was wearing low-heeled black leather shoes and felt like she couldn't even walk steadily.
"It doesn't seem to fit me..." It feels like a pheasant with a phoenix tail.
After all, she still has a little inferiority complex and is not confident enough in herself.
"Why is it inappropriate?"
"You don't believe in your sister-in-law's judgment?"
Wen Jiu walked to Lu Qingqing's side, adjusted the hood of her sweater, and undid her braided hair. He went into the house to get a comb and re-braided her hair with a ribbon adorned with pearls. After that, he took her to the bathroom to look in the mirror.
"Look for yourself, what's not beautiful about it?"
Lu Qingqing looked at herself in the mirror. She was completely different from how she was three months ago. She looked very good, the best she had ever seen.
Her face was slightly rosy, her eyes were clear, and the clothes she wore were more fashionable than those of the most beautiful city dwellers she had seen in the city before.
She said shyly, "They all look good."
Wen Jiu was very satisfied, "That's right, you are not an ungrateful person, whatever your sister-in-law gives you is done willingly and happily, go and put on the other set for me to see."
Giving is mutual.
She is not stupid. If Lu Qingqing was really that shameless person who doesn't know how to be grateful, she would have slapped her in the face and taught her a lesson long ago.
Lu Qingqing changed into the other set, and Wenjiu changed her hairstyle, tying her hair into a high ponytail. The green sweater and the high ponytail set off her slender neck and her skin was as white as snow.
It is both clear and bright, and especially beautiful.
Wenjiu felt like he was playing a new dress-up game, and both models were stunning.
"So beautiful... oooooo..."
She hugged Lu Qingqing and said, "If a ghost-fire boy flirts with you, you must ignore him and tell your sister-in-law. I will punish her."
Lu Qingqing's face turned red as if she was cooked, and she understood what hooking up meant.
But what is the Will-O-Wisp boy?
Wen Jiu realized the problem after he finished speaking, and quickly added, "The will-o'-the-wisp boy is a boy with ghostly eyes that makes people angry."
"Wilson's Boy is a short name."
Lu Qingqing nodded blankly. She felt something was wrong but didn't know why.
"Go in, go in!"
"Keep going into the yard!"
Hearing the noise outside, Wen Jiu turned around and rushed outside. When he reached the corridor, he found that a coal truck had come in. Lu Qingqing saw it and hurried back to the room to change her clothes, as she was afraid that the coal would dirty her new clothes.
After warming the wine, they went back to the room to get the money, then they put on their shoes and went downstairs.
Lin Xiulian commanded the truck to stop, and the coal seller jumped out of the truck.
He looked to be in his fifties. Although his clothes were dirty, he looked very energetic. He said with a smile, "I've been quite busy these days. I still have several truckloads of coal to deliver. You give me the money first, and I'll unload the coal. Do you want to set up a branch here by yourself?"
The weather was getting colder, and more people were buying coal. Although business was good, he was so busy that he often couldn't even have a hot meal from morning to night.
Lin Xiulian had been working at the family home for several years and was familiar with the boss and his character, so she nodded and said it was no problem, then turned around and prepared to collect all the money from the families and give it to him.
The warm wine was given first, and the other families also gave their money promptly. When it was Zhao Chunni's turn, she had just handed over the money when her mother-in-law reached out and snatched it away.
"You idiot."
"You're paying me before I even get the goods. Who will be held responsible if there's a shortfall? That's how you squandered all my son's money."
