Spatial Farming: Rough Man Orion Dotes on His Wife Too Much

Chapter 96 Dumplings
There were very few customers in the afternoon, and only twelve people were registered. After registration, Gu Rao had no intention of continuing to open the door for business, and quickly closed the stall with Bie Ye.

After collecting.

Bie Ye said, "Lock the door early and go upstairs to rest. There should be no bullock carts to go to Donghuang County now. I will take a boat to the county now and report to the government early tomorrow morning."

Gu Rao worried, "Are you going alone?"

Bie Ye nodded.

"One person is enough."

"If you stay at home, don't you still have to make zongzi?"

"I have to work hard for you."

Gu Rao realized it later and dared not believe it, "The idea of ​​giving each of the guests a rice dumpling is not just to drag me at home and go to the town to report to the officials by yourself?"

Bieye fell silent.

He had indeed thought this way from just now, but he didn't expect his wife to be so keen and detect his intentions so quickly, and it was the first time that he felt a headache because his wife was too smart.

"From Wild Boar Town to Donghuang County, there is a distance of nearly forty miles. It takes at least two hours to walk, and at least one hour to take a boat and make an ox cart."

"You are weak and can't stand the bumps. You'd better stay at home. I'll come back after I report to the official."

Gu Rao rolled his eyes.

"Do you think I don't know the process of reporting to officials?"

"First of all, we have to find someone to write the pleadings, and then we have to wait for the county magistrate to pass it to the court, and we have to argue with the defendant in the court until the case is over."

"Now we don't even know who the thief is, and we still need the government to investigate. We don't know how many days it will be delayed. If we go to the county town, we don't know how many days we will stay in the county town."

"I don't trust you alone."

"Let's wait until the Dragon Boat Festival is over to discuss the matter of reporting to the official. The calmer we behave, the more panicked the thieves hiding in the dark will be. Maybe they will show their feet."

"After the Dragon Boat Festival, I will go to the county with you."

Without giving Bie Ye a chance to refute, he continued, "Do you think making zongzi is easy? I can't do it all by myself. You have to stay and make zongzi with me."

Don't be fooled by her.

"Ok."

Gu Rao said, "Wait for me, I'll go downstairs to get some money, and then I'll buy some materials for making zongzi." After speaking, he trotted upstairs again, and took out a tael of silver from the space.

After going downstairs, I found a small back basket and a bigger one. I carried the small one by myself and the bigger one. I locked the door and went out to buy ingredients together.

On the way, Gu Rao asked, "What kind of rice dumplings do you like?"

Bie Ye said, "Salty."

Gu Rao likes both salty and sweet rice dumplings.

"This year, there's no time, so let's just make four flavors of rice dumplings, fresh pork rice dumplings, salted egg yolk rice dumplings, brown sugar rice dumplings and eight-treasure bean rice dumplings."

"Two kinds of savory, two kinds of sweet."

Bie Ye hummed, and said again, "Madam Bai hasn't exchanged the food box yet, after going back later, go to the Wu family and ask, maybe they forgot."

Only then did Gu Rao think of her beloved food box.

"it is good."

"It's getting late now, and I don't know if there is any fresh pork in the butcher shop. If there is not enough pork, we can only use other meat to make up."

The couple went to the meat market first, and several meat jerky stalls closed early, but fortunately, the butcher shop they had been patronizing before was still open.

After the boss saw them, he greeted them skillfully.

"Why did you come to buy meat at this hour?"

"How much do you want today?"

Gu Rao said, "Business is good today, and the stall is closing now. Boss Zhu, is there any fresh pork?"

Boss Zhu smiled and said, "Today is the market day, and tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. There are many people buying pork, so I slaughtered an extra pig, and there are about [-] catties of pork, all freshly killed today. It's on."

"Would you like some?"

Gu Rao looked at the pork on the stall. Although it had been stored for a day, the color was still fresh, so he said, "Give me four catties of pork belly."

Boss Zhu said, "There is only a little more than a catty left of the pork belly. Is the pork hind leg okay?"

Gu Rao nodded.

"Alright, try to have as much lean meat as possible."

Boss Zhu smiled and said, "Every time other people come to buy meat, they are afraid that I will give you too much lean meat, and they will all ask for fat meat. You are the only one who likes lean meat. I remember your preferences clearly. Even if you don't tell me, I also want to cut more lean meat for you."

"It's already afternoon, and I don't know if we can sell all the remaining meat. I'll give you an extra tael of lean meat."

Usually the leftovers are left until tomorrow, and the stale meat will be sold at a reduced price. It is better to give some to regular customers to win over customers and save such good customers from going to other people.

Gu Rao was in a better mood.

"Thank you very much then."

The loss was heavy today, money and jewelry were stolen. Although I tried my best to hide my mood and didn't want people around me to feel my negative emotions, but the effect was not great. At this moment, the boss just gave her a piece of meat, But it still made her feel a little bit of loss.

Next, I went to buy glutinous rice.

Fortunately, rice shops usually closed late, so they rushed to the shop before closing and bought [-] catties of glutinous rice, as well as some red beans, mung beans, barley, peanuts, and red dates.

I went to buy some miscellaneous things again, and the couple returned with a full load.

After returning home and putting the things in the kitchen, Gu Rao counted the money.

She brought two taels of silver with her, and when she came back, she still had one tael and 510 pennies left.

Looking at the things piled up on the ground, I felt sorry for my loss.

"You can buy such a lot of things with a few hundred pennies, but that thief stole so much money from me. Don't be caught by me. After you catch me, I won't settle the account properly."

Not only property loss, but also spiritual loss.

Bie Ye raised his hand and touched Gu Rao's head, and comforted him, "I've been angry all afternoon, don't be angry, money is something outside of your body, you can earn it if you don't have anything, as long as you have nothing to do."

Gu Rao thought about it too.

"Well, I'm not angry anymore."

"Go to bed early today, wake me up early tomorrow, and make the zongzi early, otherwise it will be too late for the guests to ask for the zongzi."

Bie Ye felt a little regretful.

"I shouldn't come up with bad ideas and cause you so much trouble."

Gu Rao disapproved, "What is a bad idea?"

"The idea you came up with just now is pretty good. It's not bad to have a good relationship with customers during the festival. Only in this way will repeat customers last for a long time."

Bie Ye hummed.

"Then let's go upstairs and rest."
-
In the middle of the night, Gu Rao, who was not angry while talking, fell asleep, cursing the thief for choking to death while eating, and being run over to death while walking.

Bie Ye was awakened, "..."

This is the first time he knows that some people are asleep, but their mouths can still be awake.

Looking at his muttering wife in his dream, Bieye smiled contentedly.

The arm was a little numb from the pressure, but Bie Ye didn't intend to pull it back, he just moved his hands, turned over, changed his position, and hugged his wife even tighter.

It's time to close your eyes and fall asleep again.
