Chapter 301 Insecure Xiaohai

On the fifth day of May, Feng Yin finally left Xinyu and rushed to Kyoto to prepare for the exam.

This day is Dragon Boat Festival for Hu Xing'er, but there is no such saying in Qingyue Country.

Hu Xing'er brought some zongzi to Feng Yin, and hung some paintings at the door of his shop.

This painting depicts Qu Yuan's life. She wants to spread the custom of eating zongzi on the fifth day of May in Qingyue country.

Those paintings are very vivid, and there are a few lines of Xiaozhuan beside them, which describe the reason why Qu Yuan threw himself into the river.

She set up a special shelf in today's dim sum shop to display zongzi.

There are also many types of zongzi, including alkaline water zongzi, egg yolk zongzi, and fresh meat zongzi.

She also prepared preserved eggs and salted eggs as gifts, as long as the purchase of rice dumplings reaches a certain amount, preserved eggs and salted eggs will be given away.

Businesses in Xinyu City seldom have such gimmicks. The busy farming season is over, and everyone likes to join in the fun.

In just half a day, hundreds of thousands of zongzi had already been sold out.

The people who came after hearing the wind didn't buy zongzi, so they could only look at the paintings hung by Hu Xing'er at the door of the dim sum shop for entertainment.

Inside the dim sum shop, Xiao Hai stared blankly at the sold out dim sum shop for a while, and then finished the bills neatly and planned to go home.

"Xiao Hai, wait a minute." Just as he was about to leave, Hu Xing'er came out from the room.

She was holding an exquisite bamboo basket in her hand. The bamboo basket looked like a food box, but it was a little more delicate than the food box.

"Take this back for your mother to taste, and see if she likes it. You can also eat some yourself, especially the meat dumplings can't be kept for a long time, and must be eaten as soon as possible."

The bamboo basket in Hu Xinger's hand was carefully prepared by her. There were more than a dozen zongzi in it, as well as preserved and salted eggs, and a whole roast duck wrapped in oiled paper several times.

"Miss Boss, didn't you say that the rice dumplings are all sold out?"

Xiao Hai glanced at the bamboo basket in her hand and asked in surprise.

"That's right, all the ones are sold out, I specially reserved this for you."

With a smile on her face, Hu Xing'er said naturally.

"How can this work? You have already paid me wages. I can't take things home."

Xiao Hai hurriedly waved his hand and refused, because Hu Xing'er was already a very good boss in his heart.

"You didn't take this, I gave it to you. Hurry up and carry on, the things inside are very heavy, and I can't lift them anymore."

Hu Xing'er stuffed the bamboo basket into Xiao Hai's hand, and said seriously.

"This is the benefit I give you, not only you have it, but they also have it."

"Really?" The child didn't believe it.

"Of course it's true." Hu Xing'er affirmed.

It's just that they don't use bamboo baskets because they are already in the same yard as Hu Xing'er, so there is no need to take them far away.

Xiaohai is different. Although his house is not far away, he can't take so many things back without a bamboo basket.

"Boss, you give so many things, if one day you don't want me, where can I go to find such a good boss like you."

Holding the bamboo basket, Xiao Hai felt very uneasy.

He did a good job in that inn before, and the shopkeeper liked him so much, but then he drove him away without even thinking about it.

Although Hu Xing'er treats him well now, he can't guarantee that Hu Xing'er will use him for the rest of his life.

In particular, Hu Xing'er didn't let him go inside, which made him feel that he was not trusted and might be replaced at any time.

"What did you do to apologize to me?" Hu Xing'er narrowed her eyes, her face serious.

"No, I don't have one, lady boss." Xiao Hai panicked and quickly denied it.

"Then why do you think I will not want you?" Hu Xing'er asked again.

Xiao Hai gritted his teeth and didn't say the reason.

"You work hard, as long as you don't feel sorry for me, and don't give birth to other thoughts, I promise to use you all the time."

Hu Xing'er sighed, and understood that Xiao Hai had been bullied for a long time before, so he didn't feel safe.

"Really, I will do it well." Xiao Hai was very pleasantly surprised.

"Go back, don't scare yourself with messy thoughts all day long."

Hu Xing'er patted him on the shoulder and told him to go back quickly.

"Okay, then lady boss, you go first, I'll close the door."

Xiao Haile smiled and sent Hu Xing'er out of the shop.

At home, Xiao Beimu had asked Wang Buliu to prepare a table of delicious dishes.

Hu Xinger talked about the Dragon Boat Festival for a few days, he had to make Hu Xinger happy.

As soon as he got home, Hu Xing'er handed a pack of realgar to Feng Zhi.

"Scatter the realgar all over the house. Now that the weather is hot, there are easy snakes. Remember to sprinkle it carefully."

Feng Zhi nodded and immediately followed her instructions.

"Xiao Beimu, have Uncle Feng left?"

It was very hot today, Hu Xing'er was sitting on the porch fanning the wind with a folding fan.

"No." Xiao Beimu replied, but did not specify where Uncle Feng and others settled down.

"Oh, let Feng Zhi send them some zongzi and salted eggs later."

Hu Xing'er calculated the number of people, thinking about how many zongzi should be bought from the supermarket to be enough for them to share.

"Are they all edible like you?" Hu Xing'er asked curiously.

If they were all as edible as Xiao Beimu, it would take ten zongzi to fill their stomachs.

"No, two or three are enough for one person."

Xiao Beimu naturally understood what she meant, and replied softly.

"Oh, let's make five for each person. If you can't eat, you can share with what you can eat. Add two preserved eggs and two salted eggs, and it should be almost the same."

"There are so many things, I'm afraid it will attract people's attention if Feng Zhi sends them."

There are more than fifty iron riders, and there are two to three hundred zongzi per person, plus preserved eggs and salted eggs, which can only be transported by horse-drawn cart.

The hiding place where Uncle Feng led his cavalry was very hidden, but if there were traces of the carriage, there was no guarantee that the place would not be discovered.

"Then what should I do, I will deliver it myself?"

Hu Xing'er frowned and asked in embarrassment.

"It's not impossible, just take out your things when it's almost here, and I'll move them there."

Xiao Beimu smiled and said softly.

"It seems that this is the only way to go, then let's go now."

Hu Xing'er nodded, if she delivered it in person, then give each of them a roast duck.

Anyway, the more money she spends in her Space Supermarket, the faster she can upgrade. It doesn't matter if you buy more things, as long as you earn back the money you spend.

"No hurry, you eat first, we'll go there later."

Seeing her in such a hurry, Xiao Beimu couldn't help but smile.

"Wang Buliu has prepared all the food. If you don't eat now, it will be cold when you come back."

"Oh? Is there anything delicious here?"

As soon as Hu Xing'er heard that the food was ready, she suddenly started to feel hungry.

"Of course you like it, let's go and have a look."

Xiao Beimu smiled and took her hand, and took her to the dinner table to have a look.

"Sure enough, I like them all. Hurry up and get a bowl. I want to eat three bowls of rice today!"
