Pastoral little master

Chapter 251 A Rare Gift
Tan's front yard.

As soon as Mrs. Xu and Kang Jin's mother and son left, Mrs. Zhao immediately ordered Tan Decai to go to the town to buy some fish. The meat was already there, and Mrs. Wu asked Mrs. Wu to catch an old hen and kill it, and then simmered it to make soup.

Seeing Mrs. Zhao flattering the mother and son of the Kang family, Mrs. Wu was naturally sour.

But the sourness turned sour, Mrs. Zhao didn't dare to be sloppy with the work she ordered, and at the same time, she also wanted to please the Kang family.

"Old lady, you did the right thing." Mr. Tan praised Mrs. Zhao once in a rare way.

"What did I do wrong." Mrs. Zhao glared at Mr. Tan with some dissatisfaction, but quickly said with a smile, "The Kang family is generous, and we won't suffer if we get closer to them. It doesn’t cost much to treat them to a meal, but it makes them feel comfortable, and I believe we won’t lose money in the future.”

Mrs. Zhao, who is good at calculating, made a lot of noise with this little abacus.

"Old woman, you... well, when dealing with people, you can't just think about whether you will suffer or not. Sometimes it is a blessing to suffer. Just like the time when the boss split up, he seemed to suffer, but in the end he got a lot of lotus root for nothing. It's God's compensation for his losses. So, old lady, it's better to be honest." Mr. Tan shook his head helplessly, feeling a headache for Mrs. Zhao's hard-to-change calculations.

"I know, I know, what I'm doing now, isn't it because I listened to what you said last time, and I have to win the hearts of the boss's family, you old man, I did as I did, and I was gossiping there again." Mrs. Zhao got angry at Mr. Tan angrily.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the business, the first time you invite the Kang family to dinner, and then you will be more decent and considerate, otherwise your hard work will be in vain." Mr. Tan didn't want to talk to Zhao He quarreled and had to raise his hands in surrender.

"Don't worry, I know this, and the patriarch will be called over to accompany him when the time comes, it shows that we value the Kang family." Zhao nodded in agreement.

"Success." Mr. Tan nodded in agreement.

It was not time for lunch yet, so Mrs. Zhao went to see Mrs. Wu's work, and told Mrs. Wu to cut the vegetables more beautifully, so as not to embarrass herself in front of the guests at night.

Mrs. Wu agreed meekly.

Here Mrs. Zhao was racking her brains thinking about how to treat the Kang family well at night, while Qiduo saw a carriage approaching her, the corners of her eyes instinctively twitched.

She is very familiar with this carriage.

It was Wen Xiuyi's.

Why is he here again?Isn't he afraid that grandma will make up his mind?

Even though he is married, there is still something wrong with the way grandma looks at him.

The moment Qiduo was puzzled, the carriage stopped firmly in front of her.

"Xiaoqi." It was not Wen Xiuyi's voice that came into his ears first, but Xu Youxuan's voice.

Qiduo raised her eyes, and saw Xu Youxuan and Wen Xiuyi getting off the carriage one by one.

Xu Youxuan was dressed in a lake-blue robe, while Wen Xiuyi was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, clean and refreshing, with sparkling black eyes.

"Brother Xu, Mr. Wen." The corners of Qiduo's lips lifted slightly, and a smile broke out.

In fact, she really wanted to ask the two foodies, is it really okay for you to come to my house often?
Wen Xiuyi looked at Qiduo, as if he had seen through her thoughts, and said softly, "Xiao Qi, don't you welcome us?"

"Hehe, Mr. Wen, how could it be? You and Brother Xu are distinguished guests. It would be a great honor for us to come to our house. How could you not welcome them?" Qiduo almost bit his tongue with his teeth. Why do you talk like that.

However, she did have a guilty conscience.

"Hehe, nothing is the best." Wen Xiuyi smiled with the corners of his lips raised, his black eyes blinked lightly, and the shimmering light inside made Qiduo lower his eyes.

Although he was laughing, she seemed to hear the sound of his teeth grinding.

Thinking of the last time, in order to ask him to see a doctor for Yan's father, he had made a promise to welcome him to be a guest anytime and anywhere, and to remember him with delicious food and drink.

In that situation, she agreed to his request without hesitation, but at the same time, she also thought that it might just be a joke.

Thinking about it now, it was really too fast.

This guy is not the kind of thin-skinned guy who actually took those words seriously. Judging by his current appearance, he clearly thinks that he is not enthusiastic enough.

hateful!

Xu Youxuan nudged Wen Xiu Yi from the side, "Xiu Yi, you bastard, why are you bullying Xiao Qi? Don't worry, Xiao Qi is the most hospitable, what do you want to eat, just tell Xiao Qi. "

Then he looked at Qiduo again, and vilified Wen Xiuyi, "Xiao Qi, Xiu Yi is the most gluttonous, after a few days without eating the food you cooked, he was so hungry that he insisted on dragging me over."

Qiduo pursed her lips in joy.

Wen Xiuyi lightly kicked Xu Youxuan with his toe, and stared at him, "That's you." Then he looked at Qiduo, "Hey, I'm not here just to eat, but to give you good things. "

"What good thing?" Qiduo looked at Wen Xiuyi with sparkling eyes, the good thing he said shouldn't be bad.

Wen Xiuyi took out a small pouch from the sleeve and handed it to Qiduo, "Seed."

Concise and concise.

"What kind of seeds?" Qiduo took the little purse and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

"Loverman's fruit." Without waiting for Wen Xiuyi to answer, Xu Youxuan rushed to answer, and raised his eyebrows at Qiduo.

"Ah, love fruit? What is this?" Qiduo was a little confused for a moment, is there a fruit with this name in the world?

An imperceptible red flashed across Wen Xiuyi's face, and he squinted at Xu Youxuan again, and then said to Qiduo, "Don't listen to his nonsense, these are tomato seeds, I believe you should be able to use them."

Ahhh, it turned out to be a tomato!

Qiduo was a little excited. There seemed to be no tomatoes here. This is a rare variety.

At the same time, she suddenly realized that Xu Youxuan was right in calling tomato a lover fruit. In her previous life, she had read articles about tomato. It was a foreign species. When it was first discovered, people dared not eat it because of its bright color. Worry about it being poisonous.

Later, it gradually evolved into a gift between lovers, only for viewing, so some people call it love fruit or lover fruit.

Until a long time later, a certain kind of power salivated at the beautiful appearance of the tomato, and took a bite with the heart of death.

After tasting this, everyone knew that the tomato was not only non-toxic, but also delicious. Finally, it was made into various delicacies for people to taste.

Tomato seeds were not uncommon in previous lives, but here, they are really rare and precious.

After all, this stuff came from abroad, where can ordinary people get seeds?

When Qiduo was about to happily thank Wen Xiuyi, she suddenly thought of something, she is just a small village girl right now, how would she know what a tomato is?
Since you don't know anything, how can you show a particularly happy look.

She quickly retracted the overflowing smile, looked at Wen Xiuyi and Xu Youxuan, blinked her big eyes a few times, and asked blankly, "Mr. Wen, Brother Xu, what is this tomato? Can I eat it?"

Wen Xiuyi took a deep look at Qiduo, the corners of his lips curled up, showing a perfect arc, and a charming smile.

Qiduo felt a little guilty when he saw it.

There is no need for Wen Xiuyi to answer this question, Xu Youxuan has already said quickly, "Xiao Qi, let me tell you, these tomato seeds are not easy to come by, Xiu Yi entrusted someone to bring them over from the capital, As for whether it can be eaten or not, I don't know too well, but I heard from Xiu Yi that the fruit it produces after it grows up is very beautiful, and the taste will be very special.

Xiaoqi, you can quickly plant them, I am still waiting to taste their taste. "

Wen Xiuyi deliberately asked someone to bring me tomato seeds?

How could he be so kind?

Why did he do this?

How did he know tomatoes were edible?

The previous thought rose again in her heart, and the more Qiduo thought about it, the more suspicious she became.

Originally it was just a simple seed, but now Qiduo weighs more than a thousand catties in his hand, I don't know whether to accept it or give it back.

Although these seeds are really precious and she really wants them, but after thinking about it, she still handed the purse to Wen Xiuyi, "Mr. Wen, after listening to Brother Xu, I can't take these seeds, they are too precious .”

Wen Xiuyi glared at Xu Youxuan first, then smiled at Qiduo, "Xiao Qi, you are overthinking, I am only greedy for the taste of tomatoes, it happens that your family has land to grow, and you are good at cooking, in order to let It will be easier for you to make tomatoes at that time, so I will bring them for you to help plant. I just don’t know if the current season is okay, and I have been delayed on the road for some time, otherwise it should have arrived long ago.”

After saying these words, Wen Xiuyi walked into the yard leisurely with his hands behind his back, as if he entered his own yard.

Qiduo pursed her lips, he said so, the only way to accept the seeds is to accept them.

But she knew that it was too late to plant tomatoes now.

Still, she's confident she can grow well.

"Xiaoqi, plant it well, whether we can eat fresh tomatoes depends on you." Xu Youxuan added, and then entered the yard.

Qiduo sighed softly, put away her purse, and instead of going into the yard, went to call Zheng Wanru first.

Wen Xiuyi and Xu Youxuan entered the yard of Qiduo's house, only to find out that there are other guests in her house.

However, the Kang family knew each other well, and Kang Jin was very happy to see them, and finally had a man as his companion.

Especially Second Aunt Kang, when she saw Wen Xiuyi, she was so excited that she couldn't speak, she hurriedly said thank you again.

Wen Xiuyi thanked everyone the most, and after a few sentences, he and Xu Youxuan followed Kang into Tan Debao's room.

Of course, when Wen Xiuyi and Xu Youxuan came to Qiduo's house, although they said they were giving tomato seeds, they still brought some gifts for Xu Shi and Tan Dejin, this is a basic courtesy, they dare not neglect.

Seeing Xu Youxuan, Mrs. Xu felt a little complicated, both happy and worried, worried that he would attract other members of the Xu family.

At the same time, for Wen Xiuyi and Xu Youxuan to come so frequently, both Xu Shi and Tan Dejin thought that it was because Xu Yixuan knew Xu Shi's real identity, so they came here often.

In fact, how did they know that Xu Youxuan's several visits to Qiduo's house were all dragged by Wen Xiuyi.

Just like today, Xu Juxuan was stopped by Wen Xiuyi on the way back to the county.

On the contrary, Xu Youxuan did not dare to see Mrs. Xu often, because the relationship between Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu's family had not yet been reconciled. He knew Mrs. Xu's temper.

Due to the addition of Xu Youxuan and Wen Xiuyi, Qiduo added a few more dishes later.

Mrs. Zhao and Mr. Tan also came over, seeing Xu Youxuan and Wen Xiuyi, they were surprised and then happy.
