Chapter 671
Qingluo split the pomegranate in half and handed it to Huzi, revealing two shallow pear nests, and said with a smile: "Brother Huzi, try it."
Huzi saw her standing under the tree, wearing an orchid skirt, with a sweet and lovely appearance, and was in a daze for a moment.
He took the pomegranate, picked a few pieces and put them in his mouth, chewed them, and couldn't help frowning: "It looks good, but why does it taste so harsh? Niuniu, don't eat it... Be careful if you lose your teeth..."
Qingluo laughed and leaned back: "Why do you eat without vomiting seeds?"
"I thought these were seeds..." Huzi scratched his head in embarrassment, "Eating this is so troublesome, but it's suitable for your girls to eat. Is it delicious?"
Qing Luo smiled and nodded: "Sweet."
"Then take them all home and eat slowly."
As Huzi said, he picked off a dozen or so pomegranates from the tree, wrapped them in a jacket, and put them in the carriage for her.
Qing Luo took out a few more for him, "Bring a few to my aunt."
Huzi smiled and said, "Grandma's teeth are bad, so how can she eat these. You always send soft steamed buns, she can't finish them all, so she doesn't need this."
Then he gave her the pomegranate and put it in the car.
"If the old man can taste more, let her taste it." Qingluo still let him take two.
Huzi had no choice but to pick it up, and asked, "What is Niuniu doing here today? Are you visiting Mr. Zhou and the others?"
Qingluo shook her head lightly: "Not yet."
Hu Zi also knew her situation very well, knowing that the relationship between her and the Liu family was rather embarrassing, she must feel very uncomfortable.Not knowing how to comfort her for a while, he opened his mouth a few times, but finally fell silent.
He knew he was dumb and couldn't speak.
So he just didn't say anything and just stayed with her like this.
"How are those victims now?" Qingluo asked like gossiping while eating pomegranates one by one.
Huzi laughed: "They, with your care, it can't be better. There are locust plagues everywhere this year, and I don't know how much rice has been eaten. Only our potatoes and sweet potatoes are not affected. It's amazing. Oh, I heard You let them grow a large piece of sorghum and they grow very well, and many people have tried their best to find out the origin of these things of yours."
Qing Luo said with a smile: "I'm afraid that no one will inquire about it. It would be great if every family can grow sweet potatoes in the future."
Both produce high yields and are easy to store, making them perfect food for tough times.
She is happy to spread these two things throughout Pingyang County.
"Niu Niu, are you willing to let others grow it too?" Hu Zi was a little surprised.
Qingluo smiled and said, "I'm not so narrow-minded. This kind of good thing should be popularized. What's the point of keeping it for myself?"
Hu Zi looked at her for a while, then sighed, "I am no man as big as your mind, so it's strange that you can take the exam for Chinese first prize."
Qing Luo wrapped the spit out pomegranate seeds in a handkerchief and put them in a medicine bag, said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with the chest. By the way, I still have something to discuss with Brother Hu Zi."
"Just say it."
"I want to recruit some people to work in my winery. The few that Rongcheng found are all good winemakers, and it is not easy for them to do a lot of rough work."
"Oh, how many people do you need?"
Qing Luo made a rough calculation in her heart, and said, "Maybe thirty or fifty people, please help me find fifty people for the time being. The salary is still fifty Wen per day, including one lunch."
Huzi nodded and said with a smile: "The wages you give are good, and you can save a lunch. Last time I asked someone to cultivate the land, the villagers were all overwhelmed, and everyone wanted to come."
Qing Luo said: "There's no need to only look for people in Nanqiao Village, any nearby villages will do. Brother Huzi, you think the people are good. The people I found before were all down-to-earth people who can endure hardships. This time I want that kind of people."
"Hehe, it's easy, don't worry, I'll start looking for someone tomorrow."
Qingluo nodded, and asked again: "Is your salary paid in time?"
Lin Si alone manages Qingluo's private money for her, and Lin Si is also responsible for where the money is spent and paid.
Qingluo was worried that he would be too busy, so she forgot about the wages of these people.
Huzi will definitely not take the initiative to ask her for it.
"It's very timely," Huzi said hurriedly, Fourth Master Lin came here in person every time, only in advance, and never delayed. "
After he finished speaking, he hesitated for a while, looked at the slender green radish, and asked: "Niu Niu, I've asked, you actually don't have much salary as a county magistrate, you spent all the money here, what about the yamen? "
Qingluo smiled and said, "Don't worry about this brother Huzi. I don't spend money in vain. I will earn back."
After hearing this, Huzi was still a little worried.
He knew that it was not easy for Qingluo to make money. In the past, in the cold winter months, she had to see a doctor, study and practice the piano, which was very hard work.
"I can't help you with anything. I let my grandma save the salary you sent me. If you need it, just tell me."
Qingluo was moved and smiled again: "It's serious business to save your wages to marry a wife, I don't need you to worry about it here. By the way, I heard that you are getting married?"
Last time when Qingluo found out that Huzi's fiancée was having an affair with someone else, Huzi resigned without hesitation.
Although Qingluo felt that she did the right thing, she felt a little guilty towards him.
Therefore, Huzi's salary has always been several times that of others.
When Huzi heard this, he smiled a little embarrassedly: "I waited for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Grandma is getting old, and she is anxious to hold her grandson."
"Brother Huzi is filial, as long as the girl has a good character," Qingluo said, "If you need anything, just tell me, and I will make it for you."
Huzi shook his head again and again: "Grandma saved for me, that's enough."
"Okay, let me know when you set a date, and I will definitely go to have a wedding wine."
"En." Huzi agreed, seeing her smiling face, a faint feeling of disappointment flashed in his heart, and soon disappeared.
Like a morning mist disappearing into the sun, as if it had never been there.
After asking Hu Zi to find all the people as soon as possible, Qing Luo was about to leave when she saw Feng Yi running towards her with a sad face.
Feng Yi has always been smart and quick-witted, what could make him like this?
Qingluo was a little bit he stopped, waiting for him to approach.
"My lord, my lord—"
Feng Yi panted, "Master Lin Sixth Master asked me to invite Sir to go back."
"Brother Huzi, I'll go back first, you're busy." Qingluo took care of Huzi, walked quickly to the carriage, and asked, "What happened?"
Feng Yi said: "Just now, Xiahe Village, Shahe Village and other five or six villages are all coming to the yamen to ask to see your lord."
"Did you say why?"
Feng Yi shook his head: "I don't know too well. I just came back from the outside. As soon as I saw them, Sixth Master Lin sent me to ask you to go back immediately."
Qingluo nodded, boarded the carriage, and told the monkey to speed up.
"Don't worry, my lord!" The monkey agreed loudly, and swung the whip into the air.
