The old man was still standing, and the old man was still standing.

Yan Chujiu brought all the sauces he bought into the kitchen and saw Su Yueqing chopping peppers there.

The back door of the kitchen was not open, and the windows were closed.

The air was not circulating, and the whole kitchen seemed particularly hot and stuffy, like being in a sauna.

Although a small fan was turned on, the wind was hot.

Su Yueqing was already sweating profusely, and her slightly messy long hair was a little wet.

As soon as Yan Chujiu came in, his guilty nose smelled all kinds of smells.

The spicy smell of peppers, the strong smell of garlic, but the most stimulating thing to him was the smell of hormones.

Yan Chujiu couldn't help rubbing his nose, and then he came forward when he felt that he could bear it.

Seeing that his aunt's long hair was a little messy, he took the initiative to help her tie it up.

Although it was just a subconscious and natural action, Su Yueqing still felt relieved and felt that she had not raised him in vain.

In fact, sometimes, she couldn't help but wish for it.

The two of them continued to rely on each other, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong.

Not seeking wealth and honor, as long as they were safe and sound, without illness or disaster.

When Yan Chujiu wanted to open the door and window for ventilation, Su Yueqing hurriedly stopped him, "Don't open it, the mosquitoes outside the vegetable garden will be attracted by the light and fly in!"

"Isn't it okay to light a mosquito coil?"

"The smell of mosquito coils is too strong. If it seeps into the chili sauce, it will affect the quality and it will be troublesome."

Yan Chujiu didn't think it was that exaggerated, but his aunt insisted not to allow it, so he had to turn the fan to the maximum gear.

"Aunt, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

Yan Chujiu originally wanted to talk about Huang Xiang'er, but after thinking about it, he felt that another thing was more important.

"I went fishing with Grandpa Xu today."

"I know, didn't you post it on WeChat Moments? I even commented on you!"

"I went to the bay behind his private estate in Baisha Village. He doesn't want to take care of that estate anymore, so he gave it to me!"

"Oh, give it to you..." Su Yueqing said disapprovingly, and suddenly her expression froze, and then she jumped up suddenly, "What did you say?"

Seeing her big reaction, Yan Chujiu hurriedly added, "I mean he gave me the estate to plant, temporarily!"

Su Yueqing gave him a reproachful look, "Why don't you say it clearly, you scared me, I thought he gave you the whole estate!"

Yan Chujiu thought to himself that he really gave it to me, but it wasn't a gift, it was a loss. The old man should never have dreamed that he would lose to me, he was originally very calculating!

Su Yueqing said earnestly, "Chujiu, I tell you, although you saved his granddaughter, if he really wants to give you something valuable, you can't accept it. We are not the kind of people who repay favors with gratitude!"

"Well, I know, he just gave it to me to take care of it, not to me!"

Yan Chujiu doesn't like to lie to his aunt, but sometimes white lies are inevitable.

At the same time, this is also in accordance with his and Xu Shiguan's agreement to keep it secret.

"Aunt, the manor has 30 acres of land. Except for some pomelo and watermelon, nothing else is planted. We can use it to plant small chili peppers and single-headed garlic!"

After the agreement was signed, the matter of garlic chili sauce was settled.

Chili sauce needs to be made for a long time, and it is always unsafe to rely on others to supply raw materials. If it can be self-sufficient, the supply and quality are also guaranteed.

Su Yueqing nodded, "We should indeed plant a large number of single-headed garlic and small chili peppers, which can not only prevent others from not being able to supply them, but also reduce costs!"

Yan Chujiu added, "Especially small chili peppers, which are not easy to find!"

"Well, when I saw the contract today, I started thinking about planting and planned to rent land in the village. Before I could worry about it, the matter was solved. It seems that I really have to thank Mr. Xu."

Yan Chujiu secretly curled his lips. That old man was very bad. Thank him for nothing. If I hadn't won him, he wouldn't have been so kind to give me the manor!

But it's not his habit to say bad things about others behind their backs. If he wants to say it, he will say it to their faces.

"Yes, yes, yes, I really have to thank him. I'll get him a piece of fat pork when I have time. By the way, aunt, I have another thing to tell you."

"Go ahead!"

Yan Chujiu pointed to a pile of unpeeled single-headed garlic and chili peppers in the basket that needed to be processed.

"Should we find a helper to share the work with you?"

Su Yueqing shook her head, "No need

, I can handle these jobs by myself!"

"You can handle it, but you have to work from morning to night!" Yan Chujiu pointed to the clock, "Look, it's already past nine o'clock, and you're still busy. If you don't finish until twelve o'clock, you may not be able to finish the work. After that, you have to clean up and wash. By the time you take a shower and rest, it may be one or two o'clock in the morning!"

"This..." Su Yueqing had to say, "Only by enduring the suffering of the world can you get the wealth of the world."

No matter how nice it sounds, it's just because of poverty!

Yan Chujiu felt that her concept had not changed.

"Auntie, don't feel sorry for the wages. The money belongs to others, and the body belongs to oneself. People who don't know how to rest can't work well, and their efficiency will be lower."

Su Yueqing admitted that what he said was true, but still hesitated, "It's not easy to find people for this emergency!"

Yan Chujiu disagreed, "As long as you want to hire, I can recruit as many people as you want. Now is the fishing ban period, and there are many people in the village who have no work to do! "

Su Yueqing said hurriedly, "I don't want a man!"

Yan Chujiu laughed, "Of course, I can't agree to a man, you are my aunt!"

"By the way!" Su Yueqing suddenly woke up, "Aunt Huang next door has no work to do, why not ask her."

"Huh! ?"

"Aren't you going to send the fish to her house? Ask her for me when you see her. If she doesn't agree, I'll find someone else!"

Su Yueqing didn't feel that it was inappropriate for Yan Chujiu to ask Huang Xiang'er, because Zhou Baoquan was at home.

Yan Chujiu was a little amused and embarrassed. He had prepared a lot of words to persuade his aunt to ask Aunt Huang to help!

I didn't expect that it would be completely useless. So many brain cells were wasted.

Yan Chujiu had to ask, "How much salary should I give her?"

Su Yueqing thought for a while and said, "How about giving her 100 yuan a day, from 8 am to 5:30 pm, and a meal at noon. ”

Yan Chujiu felt that his aunt was a bit stingy, but he just liked her being stingy.

Although the process of making chili sauce is tedious and complicated, most of it is light manual work, which is time-consuming but not too physically demanding, and one hundred yuan a day is barely enough.

"Then I will send the fish over now and ask her by the way!"

"Well, take two more, pick the bigger ones!"

"Okay!"

Yan Chujiu took a few fish and went to Huang Xianger's house next door.

"Aunt, Aunt..."

Before he shouted a second time, Huang Xianger had opened the door, pulled him in, and quickly closed the door like a thief.

Yan Chujiu was a little confused, "Aunt, what are you doing? "

Huang Xiang'er glanced at him lightly, thinking that you are asking questions even though you know the answer. You are shameless and are not afraid of being seen by others, but I am afraid!

Yan Chujiu looked at her and found that she had obviously just taken a shower. She was wearing a pink nightgown, her hair was slightly wet, and her fair face was rosy.

She exuded a fresh scent after a bath, without any other smell.

But it was a bit strange. Her eyes flickered and wandered, and she didn't dare to look at him. In the past, she was always aggressive.

Yan Chujiu couldn't figure out what state she was in now. She was not his wife, and he was too lazy to figure it out!

He looked around the room and didn't see Zhou Baoquan, so he asked, "Aunt, where is my Uncle Quan?"

"I just asked him to guard the boat!"

Yan Chujiu was a little overwhelmed, "Didn't you say not to let him go? "

Huang Xiang'er glared at him again, thinking, you kid is asking knowingly, who am I sending him away for?

Yan Chujiu saw that she didn't say anything and Zhou Baoquan was not there, and felt that it was not appropriate for a man and a woman to close the door alone.

"Aunt, if uncle is not here, you should open the door!"

Huang Xiang'er's eyes widened when she heard it. Open the door?

Yan Chujiu saw that she didn't move, but blushed. She probably thought it was not good, so she took the initiative to walk over and open the door.

Huang Xiang'er saw that he was so persistent, she wanted to cry but had no tears. If the door was opened, if someone passed by outside, they could see what was in the hall at a glance.

Although it was unlikely that someone would pass by in the middle of the night, if they were really caught, they would not be able to face people in the village in the future.

Yan Chujiu obviously didn't know what she was thinking, but she felt that she 's behavior is a bit weird and not normal.

Well, it should be because Uncle Quan is not at home, and it is not appropriate for a man to come to her house!

If this is seen by others, who knows what will happen!

Yan Chujiu thought about finishing the matter quickly and going back quickly to avoid affecting other people's reputation.

Huang Xianger has a very good reputation in the village. No one has ever said anything bad about her. Of course, because of her fierce personality, most people dare not gossip about her.

Yan Chujiu gave her the bag of fish she brought.

He handed it over, "Aunt, this is the fish for you!"

Huang Xiang'er thought he was just pretending with this prop, but after taking it, she found that the bag was quite heavy, probably with five or six kilograms of fish.

Open the bag and take a look. There are yellow pomfret, chicken cage pomfret, and blackhead fish in it. They are all big and one fish can be eaten for a meal.

Is this the cost of that?

Huang Xiang'er bit her lip, said nothing, and took the fish into the kitchen silently.

Yan Chujiu waited outside for a while, but she didn't come out. She couldn't help but look inside in confusion, and then she was stunned for a moment.

Huang Xiang'er was standing quietly in front of the kitchen sink at this moment, with her hands gently resting on the countertop, supporting her slender waist.

Her body leaned forward slightly, forming a graceful arc line.

The elegant posture shows a unique charm, exuding the softness and charm of women.

She was tilting her head, pursing her lips gently, looking at Yan Chujiu outside.

The eyes are deep and soft, hesitant to speak, revealing a kind of expectation...
