There are flowers and wine, hoeing and farming

Chapter 59

When it was dawn outside, Qiaoqiao woke up. Years of habits made her biological clock very punctual, but when she moved her body, the pain in her body was worse than last night. She struggled for a while and decided to continue lying down. When she gets up, Boss Hu and Liu Jian will drive her over to continue resting.

Picking up the medicinal wine that was placed next to the bed last night, rubbed it, and massaged it gently to let the effect of the medicine slowly dissipate. It was hot, but it made her feel much better than the simple pain.

After some time, when she heard the sound of Boss Hu getting up outside, she hesitated for a while, and decided that it would be better to get up. She couldn't sleep anymore, and the medicinal wine was applied, so she just got up and moved around, feeling better, and the injury might be serious. Okay faster.

"Boss Hu."

Seeing Qiaoqiao come out dressed well, Boss Hu frowned slightly: "Why did you wake up so early? Go and rest, there is nothing busy."

Qiaoqiao's heart warmed, and she smiled at him: "It's okay, it will be more uncomfortable if you keep me in the room all the time, just let me do whatever I want, if I want to go to the restaurant, I won't force it if I can't go of."

Boss Hu watched Qiaoqiao raised his arm and shook it desperately to show that he had no problem, so he nodded: "Okay, it's up to you, but be careful, don't get hurt again, if you encounter similar situations next time, You can hide as far away as you can."

After Qiaoqiao washed up, she squatted down on the wasteland she had developed. The seeds she planted had already grown a lot, and they continued to grow. But the current situation is that almost half of them have been judged to be The buds are dead and nothing can grow.Moreover, these growths are not well-developed, and they seem to be missing something. They always feel sleepy, like a person whose mental state is not very good, without that kind of vigorous feeling.

Even so, it is impossible for Qiaoqiao to give up. She spent many years exploring in her hometown before she gradually realized some skills of planting and growing flowers. But at any rate, some other experience is definitely needed.

While squatting there looking carefully at the leaves of the buds, a person squatted beside him all of a sudden: "It's grown out, such a tender color?"

Seeing that Liu Jian was about to grab him, Qiaoqiao didn't care about other things, so he stretched out his hands and pushed him back. Liu Jian just sat down on the ground with blank eyes: "Why are you pushing me?"

Qiaoqiao chuckled: "With such a ruthless hand, if you pinch it all at once, the flower buds will be crushed to death."

"Hmph, baby!!"

"Uncle, Uncle!" A chubby child walked up to Liu Jian in a flash, and jumped on him, making Liu Jian lie down again before he had time to squat up again.

"Uncle."

"Who is this?" Qiaoqiao looked at the child and asked excitedly.

"It's from my brother's house. They have something to do, let me take a look at it for a day."

Qiaoqiao looked over, and the child also stared and turned over. This child is very fat, his small hands are knotted like lotus roots, his small mouth is also pouty, and he is quite fair. People want to pinch twice very much.

Qiaoqiao's motherhood overflowed all of a sudden, she stretched out her hand and patted her: "Come here, come here, let me hug you too."

The child rolled his eyes and threw himself into Liu Jian's arms, ignoring Qiaoqiao.

"There is no food, and I want to seduce him, and there is no door!" Liu Jian laughed, and picked up his fat nephew: "Oh, this brat, I can't hold him anymore."

Qiaoqiao also went to the front restaurant to watch the child.

"Why are you here? Hurry up and go back. By the way, how about the medicinal wine you wiped? Is it much better?"

"Well, it's much better, it's not as painful as yesterday."

"That is, what I give you is definitely the best."

"Hey, don't run around, you fell." Qiaoqiao grabbed the little fat pier who was running towards the kitchen and pulled her back.

"What's the boy's name?"

"You can just call him Xiaogui. Brat, sit down, or I will beat you!"

This kid is a sullen type, he doesn't like to talk, but he moves a lot. If he doesn't pay attention, he will run away, and his target will always be the kitchen, or the restaurant entrance.When you catch him back, he won't cry or make noise, just watch you for a while, and then continue to run away, indomitable.

Seeing him like this, Qiaoqiao blushed with a smile and praised the boy for his perseverance.

"Ah, ah..." The child waved his Yuanyuan arms towards the door again, muttering ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

"Ah, no, let's not go." Qiaoqiao thought he wanted to go out again, so she pinched his nose and kissed him on the cheek.

"Excuse me, is the boss here?"

Qiaoqiao and Liu Jian turned to look at the door at the same time, both of them were stunned, before Qiaoqiao could react, Liu Jian had already sighed and said: "Girl, it's not that we don't want your food, we There have always been customers, and those families are not unlucky, they are all men who died on the battlefield. If you come like this, we can't take care of you."

Qiaoqiao moved her mouth a few times, facing this person who had been here once and let herself discover that she was also a time traveler, she always had complicated emotions in her heart, she didn't say anything, just hugged Xiaogui The child looked at this man silently.

"No, big brother, look, the breeds are different this time. I got some very rare breeds, and they haven't grown out when I came back last time. They just came out this time, so I rushed over to give some. Try it." The woman smiled slightly, and stepped forward to open the basket, revealing the contents inside.

"Isn't it sweet potato?"

"It's different, look, this one is made of yellow soil, very sweet, very sandy, it melts in your mouth when you put it in your mouth, it's delicious. Especially when you eat it roasted, the taste is even better." The woman forcefully Break off a piece, revealing the yellow sweet potato inside for Qiaoqiao and Liu Jian to see.

"Eat, eat..." The child Xiaogui scratched and wanted to reach out.

Qiaoqiao's heart is moved, because what she eats here is the kind of white sweet potato, which can withstand hunger, but the taste is not particularly good, and what the woman in front of her recommends is obviously the kind of roasted sweet potato that she ate in her previous life. The sweet potatoes with yellow soil taste really good.

"What's the matter?" Boss Hu walked in from the backyard and asked when he saw them all gathered together.

"Boss, take a look." Qiaoqiao looked at the woman after Boss Hu came in, her eyes became more expectant and eager. She didn't intend to recognize each other, nor did she want to sacrifice herself, but the thing this woman sent was indeed Not bad, being able to stay like this can be regarded as a mutual help.

"What?" Boss Hu leaned over.

"This kind of sweet potato is delicious. It's much better than the one we used to have. It's not too conflicting. This kind of sweet potato can be baked and eaten. It's very sweet."

"Yes, yes, this one is very good." The woman gave Qiaoqiao a grateful look, and continued to recommend it to Boss Hu.

"Oh, isn't it good?" Boss Hu looked at Qiaoqiao.

Qiaoqiao immediately nodded firmly.

"Okay, as much as you bring, leave some."

"Okay, I'll go home and push it for you. I'll save a hundred catties first, and I'll deliver it after I eat it. Boss, wait a moment. I'll deliver it right away." The woman quickly packed the basket and ran quickly. out.

"This little lady is also very pitiful. Others' families are full of men who come out to do this work, but the man in her family still wants her to take care of her. Even the delivery of food is tossed back and forth by herself. Hey..." Master Lu just came from home, looked at the woman who was leaving in a hurry, and said a few words with emotion after entering the room.

Soon, the woman brought sweet potatoes with a trolley, which weighed 120 catties. Boss Hu did not hesitate. He was a little excited when he took the money, and then he straightened his chest, as if he was supported by a stubborn spirit. He turned around and smiled politely at them and walked out of the door.

"Come on, let's bake it, it's delicious." Qiaoqiao jumped off the bench and dragged the chubby boy into the kitchen.

Master Lu also had bright eyes: "Oh, this is that kind of sweet sweet potato, isn't it? I've eaten it once before, and it's really good, but no one here has grown it? The little lady just now is really amazing. "

Hearing that there is something to eat, the little chubby and little Gui followed behind Qiaoqiao, never leaving a step.

After burying the sweet potatoes in a pile of nearly burned firewood, Qiaoqiao went outside to wait in peace.It's just that the little chubby can't wait, and wants to run over to have a look at it from time to time, but he can't calm down no matter what.

"Ah..." When he looked at Qiaoqiao with pitiful and aggrieved eyes countless times, Qiaoqiao finally got up and went to the kitchen, pulled out a small one with a stick, and looked at it, it was almost familiar.He took that and went out: "Come on, the other big ones are roasting for a while, this one is ready to eat."

When I walked outside, as soon as I opened the skin, a sweet fragrance rushed into everyone's nose. The little fat man couldn't help but jumped up, protecting his surroundings with a pair of small hands. After blowing on one piece, he put it directly into his mouth, and after a few mouthfuls, the child opened his mouth wide again excitedly: "Yes, yes..."

"Why does it smell so good, it smells so good, Xiaoqiao, are the others all healed? I want to try it too." Liu Jian was the first one who couldn't wait, and asked hastily.

"It'll be ready soon, just wait a little longer, it won't taste good if it's not fully cooked."

Several people waited patiently for a long time, Qiaoqiao pulled out a few with a stick, opened them and looked at them: "It's all good, that's all."

"Okay." Liu Jian excitedly picked up several sweet potatoes, and buried some raw ones.

As soon as they came out, they saw a person walking in.

"It's not time for dinner yet, let's meet later." Liu Jian caught a glimpse of a person out of the corner of his eye, thinking about his sweet potatoes, and wanted that person to leave quickly and not get in the way of his business here.

"What is this? I'll join in the fun too." Not only did the man not leave, but he took two steps and came to them and said aloud.

"Huh?" Qiaoqiao turned around and found that it was her cousin Qu Zhiwen. She winked at him, and Qu Zhiwen immediately gave her a wink, then sat beside them, and unceremoniously stretched out his hand to eat sweet potatoes.

Boss Hu and Master Lu never refused anyone who came, no matter how reluctant Liu Jian was, he gave Qu Zhiwen a complete one with a full face of pain.

"Is your body feeling better?" Qu Zhiwen asked in a low voice, peeling away the skin of the sweet potato.

Qiaoqiao was just taking a sweet potato, she nodded: "Well, it's okay, you also know? Didn't you come?"

"I have a way to know. This is medicinal wine and some pills for you. Take them here." Qu Zhiwen peeled the sweet potato skin on the table with one hand, and took out a small pouch from his sleeve under the table with the other hand and put it on Qiaoqiao.

"En." Qiaoqiao took the purse that seemed to be still warm, and quietly put it into her sleeve.

Seeing that she was very obedient, Qu Zhiwen couldn't help smiling, but his face turned cold again as if he remembered something.

After feeding Xiaopangdun to eat a small piece, even if he is greedy, he is only a two or three-year-old child. How can he eat too much, he is already so full that he hiccups.

"What's the matter today? Could it be that the smell of sweet potatoes has wafted into the barracks, why did everyone come here before meal time?" Liu Jian muttered and complained when he saw another one walking in.

Qiaoqiao looked at him amusedly, glanced back casually, and gave a small cry of surprise, it turned out that it was Zheng Cang who came.She was about to stand up to meet him, but she sat down again when his eyes stopped her.

"Here's this for you to eat." There was no whole sweet potato left, so Qiaoqiao broke open her own and handed over half of it to him.

"I won't eat, you eat." Zheng Cang pushed her hand away and let her eat by herself.

"We'll have lunch later, you can't eat too much of this thing, just try it." Qiaoqiao persuaded again.

"Okay." Zheng Cang took the sweet potato with tenderness in his eyes, tore off a piece and put it in his mouth.

"Delicious, right?"

"kindness."

Boss Hu was the first one to finish eating. He walked to the counter and began to tidy up his things. Master Lu had finished eating too, and it was almost time for lunch, so he went ahead and prepared it in advance. A few of them sat on the table and continued to work hard.

"Liu Jian, come here and chop up these green onions for me." Master Lu roared, and Liu Jian also reluctantly dropped the last bit of sweet potato into the kitchen.

On the table, there were only Qiaoqiao, Xiaopangdun, Qu Zhiwen and Zheng Cang.

"What a coincidence? Captain Zheng?" Qu Zhiwen greeted him first, but his tone seemed a bit unfriendly.

"En." Zheng Cang nodded his head, but didn't say anything.

"Humph." Qu Zhiwen snorted, put down the sweet sweet potato that he was eating just now, and leaned closer to Qiaoqiao, almost lying next to her ear, and whispered, "This Captain Zheng, why does he come here every day? Don't you bother?"

Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, Cousin, you seem to be much more diligent than him in coming here before, but she didn't say it, but just raised her head and smiled, fooling it.

Seeing the two of them whispering, Zheng Cang felt uncomfortable for some reason, and his hands were restless all the time. He wished he could reach out and push that Qu Zhiwen's head aside. There is a relationship. After all, men and women are still incompatible. This is really inappropriate. He struggled for a while, and when his fingers were about to stiffen, there was a sound of footsteps at the door.

There were more people here this time, about ten or so.

"General Li?" Zheng Cang was the first to see him, and immediately stood up and clasped his fists in salute.

Qu Zhiwen also stood up when he heard his shout, and saluted together.

"It's all outside, you can do whatever you want." General Li smiled lightly with his eyes narrowed, his eyes flickering, and it was almost impossible to see how many people he glanced at.

"Sit down. Sit down."

Qu Zhiwen and Zheng Cang also sat down, plus a few others, the two tables together were barely enough.

General Li ordered food first, and then began to chat with them, talking about things in the barracks.

"By the way, I don't know if you know?" General Li's eyes turned to Qiaoqiao, who was sitting on the table beside him patiently peeling garlic, intentionally or unintentionally: "Last night, those wounded soldiers, for some reason, almost Scared to death in the medical tent?"

"I know, I know." One of the tall men's eyes lit up, he slapped the table and said loudly: "These people were attacked for no reason at first, and it was already very miserable when they were beaten to the point where their legs and arms were broken. I don’t know what I saw in the medical tent in the middle of the night, and these guys were almost scared to death, hahaha, they deserve it.”

He shook his head happily while talking, and the other people who knew about this matter also chatted excitedly, adding fuel and vinegar, and there is no big news on weekdays to make them happy. After all, these few unlucky It happened to be the group of soldiers from the battalion sent from the capital that they hated, so they naturally started discussing happily.

Qiaoqiao listened to their words with some doubts, something flashed through her mind, but she didn't catch it.

And Zheng Cang and Qu Zhiwen just sat and listened to their chat, and Qu Zhiwen occasionally said a few words: "Oh? Is that so? Is that so?"

General Li stuffed a peanut into his mouth, his eyes swept over Qiaoqiao, and then Zheng Cang and Qu Zhiwen.

The corner of his mouth curled into an arc, he poured a glass of wine and sipped it slowly, his black eyes flashed with an unknown light.
