Dad, Did You Study Today?

Copper pot hot pot, winter hot pot dishes are simple.

It is nothing more than Chinese cabbage, sweet potato, tofu, bean curd skin, vermicelli.

There are several workshops in the county for vermicelli and bean products, and wholesale orders can be made at that time.

As for Chinese cabbage and sweet potato, if they are purchased from the vegetable shops in the county, the price is really expensive.

Zhou Qing and Zhou Huailin discussed and decided to purchase from the villages around the county.

In winter, almost every household has to store Chinese cabbage for the winter. As long as they offer a reasonable price, someone will definitely sell it.

In this way, it is not considered to have robbed the business of the vegetable shop, but also supplemented the needs of the shop and saved a lot of costs.

When the teahouse was purchased, the original accountant and the waiter of the teahouse terminated the contract with the old boss, and then signed a new contract with Zhou Qing and others.

Early in the morning on the fifth day of the New Year, the accountant took several waiters to rush to various villages to purchase Chinese cabbage and sweet potatoes.

Zhou Qing gave all the budget for purchasing vegetables to the accountant.

First, it was a test for the accountant, and second, it was to relieve the pressure on her and Zhou Huailin.

As for beef and mutton, they could only order them wholesale in Pingzhou.

From Qinghe County to Pingzhou, they galloped all the way, setting off in the early morning, and it was already dusk when they arrived.

This was still the flat road that had been repaired.

Pingzhou was located on the border, close to Beiyan. Although it was the territory of our dynasty, there were many mighty Beiyan men wearing animal skins in Pingzhou.

Along the way, feeling the unique cultural landscape of the border, Zhou Qing had some doubts in her heart.

I heard that Beiyan fought against our dynasty several times, and Beiyan was defeated.

Compared with our dynasty, Beiyan is even a tiny country.

Why did she feel that those Beiyan men were so arrogant in Pingzhou?

Didn't the local officials in Pingzhou care?

The doubts were just curiosity. She was not a heroine with a golden finger who had to intervene in everything.

Although the weather was cold, the streets were still prosperous.

The red lanterns swayed in the north wind, and snowflakes floated in the sky again.

In large flakes, a layer of white snow soon accumulated on the ground.

Li Er drove the carriage to the largest inn in Pingzhou, and soon a waiter came forward to receive the carriage.

In the lobby on the first floor of the inn, many guests were eating, and they were in full swing.

"Sir, are you here for a meal or staying overnight?"

As soon as he stepped into the inn, a waiter came up to greet him enthusiastically.

Zhou Qing stood behind Zhou Huailin, looking at the guests on the first floor.

There were people from Northern Yan and people from our dynasty, sitting at the same table, and basically all of them were people from Northern Yan who were talking.

Zhou Huailin smiled at the waiter and said, "Stay in the hotel."

"Okay, please come this way, sir. We have one Class A room left in our hotel. We have no Class B rooms left, but we still have seven or eight Class C rooms. How would you like to stay?"

Zhou Huailin thought for a while and said, "Then we'll take two Class C rooms."

He said with an awkward smile, "I don't have money to stay in Class A."

When you are away from home, you are unfamiliar with the place, so it's better to be poor.

The waiter seemed not to see Zhou Huailin's embarrassment and still smiled warmly, "Okay, sir, follow me."

The Class C room is on the second floor of the inn.

It's called Class C, but the environment is not bad, but it's just a little noisy because it's next to the lobby on the first floor.

The utensils inside are all available.

The bedding on the bed looks soft and warm. There is a brazier in the room, but it doesn't seem to have much smoke.

The three of them ordered some food and ate in Zhou Huailin's room. Then Zhou Qing went back to his room to rest.

In a foreign land, lying on the soft bed, Zhou Qing couldn't fall asleep even though he was exhausted.

The candles in the room had been extinguished. With dark eyes open, he lay on his side, looking at the light of the corridor outside the window.

The orange light suddenly reminded Zhou Qing of that night.

That night before the New Year, in Shen Li's study, that scene appeared in his mind again.

Shen Li said that the skirt was made by his mother and sister.

After that night, she was busy with the hot pot restaurant, and Shen Li didn't know what he was busy with, so the two of them almost didn't meet.

Today Zhou Huaishan officially started studying.

When she got up early and went out, Shen Li just entered Zhou Huaishan's room, probably preparing to start tutoring Zhou Huaishan.

He wore a stone-blue robe, with an upright posture, and the side lines of his face were firm and handsome in the morning light.

She was just going out at that time, but he didn't look at her.

Ha!

Didn't look at her!

Zhou Qing rolled her eyes in anger and was about to turn over and go to sleep when she suddenly heard a chaotic sound of footsteps in the corridor.

Along with the footsteps, there were also loud voices.

They should be speaking in the Beiyan dialect, and she couldn't understand a word, but the waiter's voice was real.

"Don't be angry, although we don't have any A-class rooms, but C-class rooms are just as good. When there is an A-class vacancy tomorrow, I will change it for you immediately. In this way, I will give you a table of free food and wine later."

The other party was still dissatisfied, humming and cursing a few words.

The waiter smiled humbly, "I will definitely change it to A-class for you tomorrow."

Listening to the sound, Zhou Qing saw three or four dark shadows passing by her window.

Soon the door of the room next to her was opened, and the sound of shouting and yelling sounded again next to her.

Zhou Qing

Just now, the waiter seemed to say that he would send a table of food and wine over.

They are not going to drink and yell like this in the middle of the night, right?

Zhou Qing lay flat on his back in despair, staring at the curtain above his head with his eyes open.

When they checked in just now, wasn't there a Class A room left? How come it was gone in such a short time?

The waiter left and soon brought a table of food and wine.

There was laughter from the next room.

Zhou Qing could understand the voice.

Some spoke fluently in Beijing dialect, while others spoke poorly in Beijing dialect.

".If you ask me, Su Ke is just too timid. If he had half the courage of his father, he would not have been caught by the shadow."

"Su Ke can't be blamed for this. If you want to blame someone, blame Song Qi. If Song Qi hadn't been caught, Su Ke would have been fine. Damn, who would have thought that Song Qi would be caught!"

Zhou Qing jumped up from the bed when he heard the familiar name.

Without thinking, he picked up a cup from the table and hit it against the wall to listen.

"Now Shen Li has found out about Youcai Grain Shop. If we don't kill Shen Li, we're all done!"

Shen Li

When Zhou Qing heard this name, he suddenly felt like he was falling into an ice hole.

Shen Li, is that a Shen Li?

Shen Li said that he served in the court and had no rank, but he had a lot of power and was annoying.

Zhou Qing's heart was pounding.

"Kill Shen Li? How easy is that? There are still many people who want to kill him. Who succeeded!"

"If others fail, they are incompetent, but it doesn't mean I can't do it either."

The person who said this should be the Beiyan man who was shouting just now, with a poor Beijing accent full of scorn and disdain.

"Oh? Lord Yelu, do you have any good ideas?"

The person who said this was speaking in a fluent Beijing accent, and he had not been in the voice just now.

His voice was a little hoarse, but the sense of superiority in his tone was probably innate.

Even if there was a wall between them, Zhou Qing could imagine that the person in the next room was probably sitting in a high position.

No wonder this arrogant Beiyan man had to use a poor Beijing accent.

So there was a big shot of our dynasty at the scene?

"Don't worry, my prince, there is no good plan, but Shen Li will definitely appear in Qinghe County on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. At that time, we will round him up. The good men of my Beiyan are best at rounding him up."
