Wang Qingjue carefully took off Chu Weilen's shirt, trying not to touch the wound on his shoulder.
However, looking at the blood on Chu Wei's cold shoulder, his eyes gradually deepened.
I don't know if it was an accident or intentional.
If it was intentional...
Wang Qingjue squinted slightly.
Apart from his good brother, he really couldn't think of anyone else.
Wang Qingjue's mind was surging, but his face was as calm as water.
Looking up at Chu Weileng in front of him, Wang Qingjue solemnly said, "Brother Chu, thank you very much this time."
Seeing Wang Qingjue's unfamiliar movements coldly, Chu Wei raised his hand and pushed his hand, tearing up the lining himself.
In the past three years, he did not know how many injuries he had suffered, and how many times he had snatched his own life from the hands of the Lord of Hell. This small injury was really nothing.
"Brother Wang, you're welcome, it's just a matter of convenience."
After he finished speaking, he took the porcelain bottle on the side and poured some wound medicine on his shoulders.
The moment the wound medicine was poured on the wound, Chu Wei closed his eyes coldly, and drops of sweat gradually ooze out from his forehead.
It was a coincidence this time.
When everyone ate together at noon, Wang Qingjue complained that the food in the barracks was too unpalatable, like pig food, tasteless and tasteless.
At that time, he thought of the two bottles of pickles that Roche had prepared for him.
After all, the two bottles of pickled vegetables were received thanks to Wang Qingjue. Although he had already eaten half of one bottle, and he was not willing to give the other one, he still reluctantly gave up his love and prepared to send it to Wang Qingjue.
He originally wanted to send him to the tent, but after hearing from the tent companion that he was in the woods, he walked towards the woods.
As soon as I saw Wang Qingjue, I saw an arrow shot from not far away.
His first reaction was to throw the bottle in his hand to block the arrow, but at that moment, he was not willing and rushed over by himself.
Fortunately, he has eaten a lot of pork jerky recently, and his strength seems to be a lot stronger, so he can stop the arrow, but unfortunately the arrow still scratches his shoulder.
"It's easy for you, but it's a big deal for me." Wang Qingjue said.
Chu Wei Leng didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, because a rabbit happened to pass by at that time.
He didn't want to get involved, and after thinking about it, he said, "Brother Wang, don't be so polite, you will be more careful in the future."
"Well, thank you Brother Chu for reminding me."
After Chu Wei Leng finished the medicine, he quickly bandaged his shoulders.
When he was about to put on clothes, Wang Qingjue was shocked when he saw the scar on his back.
"Why are there so many scars on Brother Chu?"
Chu Wei Leng put on the broken tunic and said casually, "It was left on the battlefield."
Not only him, but many people have scars on their bodies.
Leaving scars is a small thing, but dying is a big thing.
He is a powerless person, and it is so easy to climb up.
If it weren't for his outstanding martial arts, he would not have been selected to perform tasks in neighboring countries. Fortunately, he was alive and came back alive.
This is how he climbed up to the scholar class.
Between civilians and officials is a natural moat, it is difficult to cross, and there is no chance of death.
Wang Qingjue had investigated Chu Weilen before, so he naturally knew his experience and his abilities.
He also knew what kind of person General Wang was.
Chu Weilen is a decent person, not a flatterer.
It is not easy for him to climb to this position as a civilian.
"You are my brother from today, and I will cover you!" Wang Qingjue said.
Chu Weilen didn't take this sentence seriously. Although he saved Wang Qingjue today, it was indeed a small matter for him, and he didn't want to be greedy for merit.
"Brother Wang has seen you." Chu Wei said coldly. After speaking, he brought a bottle of pickles from the side and said, "Fortunately, the pickles are not broken. I heard you say that the food tasted bad at noon, so I brought it to you. This is My wife prepared it for me, and I lost it to Brother Wang who sent it to me last time. If Brother Wang hadn’t brought me food for my wife, I wouldn’t have given him pickles today.”
Wang Qingjue took the pickles and looked down.
So, he was actually saved by the pickles, was he saved by himself
Just as Wang Qingjue was about to say something, she glanced at it and saw a book about children's literacy enlightenment that Chu Wei coldly pressed under the pillow.
The corners of the book have been rolled up, so it can be seen that they are often read on weekdays.
"I'll teach Brother Chu how to read!" Wang Qingjue said.
Chu Wei Leng heard this sentence as soon as he put on his clothes. Following Wang Qingjue's gaze, he saw a corner of a book that he had read countless times.
After reading it, he raised his head to look at Wang Qingjue, and before he could speak, he heard another sentence from the other party.
"Brother Chu taught me to shoot arrows, how about that?"
Chu Wei looked at him deeply and said, "Okay."
When I woke up the next day, Luo Jianjia went to work again.
Looking at the vegetables in Cai's family, she plans to make two kinds of stuffing, one stuffed with cabbage and vermicelli, and one stuffed with chives and eggs.
Both are relatively common fillings and you can't go wrong.
Simple leek and egg stuffing.
Put some oil in a pan, crack a few eggs, and fry the eggs.
Chopped leeks, washed and chopped.
Mix the scrambled eggs and chives together and add the seasoning.
The stuffing of cabbage vermicelli is a little more troublesome, mainly because the cabbage is prone to water.
After the cabbage is chopped, put it in a pot, sprinkle some salt on it, and kill the water inside. After waiting for some moisture to come out, Luo Jianjia found a clean white cloth, wrapped the cabbage, and squeezed out the moisture inside.
Cook the vermicelli, chop it, mix it with the cabbage, and add the seasoning.
Now that the scones are filled with fillings, there is no need to add five-spice powder, sugar, etc.
However, Luo Jianjia intends to do both.
The previous one was still based on one penny, and those who put the stuffing would have to increase the money, and two three cents.
Zhao Shi and Boss Chu were very happy to see that their daughter-in-law began to change the food at home again.
After it was done, the family tried it first.
Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chu naturally had no opinion and kept praising them.
However, when they heard that Luo Jianjia was going to raise the price, they felt a little more worried.
"Everyone else is cheaper than us. If we increase the price, will it not be able to sell?"
Luo Jianjia said: "No, we don't sell the same as they do, we won't be able to sell it. When we go to sell, we don't call it scones, but change the name. Those who don't put vegetables are called shortcakes, and they put stuffing. It's called pie."
"Ah? Is this okay?" Zhao Shi and Boss Chu looked at each other.
"Well, yes, it can better highlight the appearance of the food and distinguish it from others." Luo Jianjia said. In fact, she had wanted to change her name for a long time, but she just couldn't find the right opportunity.
Zhao said: "Huh? But that's the case. That's why you prepared scones for Brother Leng before, but these are not the same as that."
Luo Jianjia nodded: "Yes, although they are all roasted, each has its own characteristics."
Boss Chu, who has been silent for a long time, raised a question: "In this case, don't others know that we are the first to sell scones?"
Hearing this question, Zhao shi was slightly startled, and said, "Yes, Jianjia, you clearly thought of this cake, so if you change the name, others won't know that you made it."
Luo Jianjia didn't care about this question, and said, "Daddy, I didn't come up with this cake, I read it in a book. Many people in the north eat this way, and Xianggong also knows this. Not only for Xianggong Not scones, not shortbread and pies. I don't know who did it first. Since I didn't come up with it, there's no need to stress it."
Hearing this explanation, Boss Chu and Mrs Zhao looked at each other and didn't mention it again.
After eating and making the cold skin, Luo Jianjia went to town with Aunt Wang with the things to sell.
Luo Jianjia already has a lot of regular customers. Seeing the extra fresh food, the price is not high, and he is very willing to try it.
Because the price is not high, the pies are really delicious, and they sold out in a short time.
Seeing that it was selling well, Luo Jianjia didn't rush to go back, but went to buy some red beans and sugar to make something sweet tomorrow.
This is also the inspiration I got from selling shortbread last time. People here still like to eat more sweet ones. Maybe the stuffed bean paste can sell well.
After returning home, before Luo Jianjia asked, Mrs. Zhao told her what happened on the pier.
"Jianjia, the scones are all sold out, and the stuffed ones are easy to sell. Those merchants just want to take them away and don't want to stay on the pier. Our pies are wrapped in greased paper, and they bring them. We'll have more tomorrow. Do some?" Zhao said with a smile.
Luo Jianjia nodded and said, "Okay."
Zhao Shi told her what the guests had said, and which kind of stuffing they liked better. As she talked, she saw what Luo Jianjia bought and asked curiously, "Why did you buy so many red beans?"
Luo Jianjia said, "Well, my daughter-in-law plans to make some bean paste-filled cakes tomorrow."
Zhao Shi was surprised: "Bean paste stuffing?"
"Yes, sweet."
Zhao shi likes to eat sweets. Hearing this, he immediately said, "This is a good idea."
The two were talking when a voice sounded outside.
"Sister-in-law, are you at home?"
Zhao Shi and Luo Jianjia looked over at the same time. Luo Jianjia was not very familiar with this person, and after identifying it carefully, he remembered who it was.
The person who came was the daughter-in-law of the village chief, that is, the mother-in-law of the Li family, the Zhou family.
"Brother and sister, why are you here?" Zhao shi greeted her with a smile.
"I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a long time. Come and see how my sister-in-law is doing these days." Zhou said with a smile.
"Thank you brother and sister for your concern, we are doing well, sit down." With that, Mrs Zhao led Mrs Zhou to sit down in the main room.
After Mrs. Zhou sat down, she looked at Luo Jianjia and said, "Look at how good Wei Leng's daughter-in-law looks and how much she matches him."
"Hello Auntie." Luo Jianjia said.
Zhao Shi smiled and said, "Well, brother Leng is gone, thanks to Jianjia taking care of me and his father at home."
Zhou complimented Luo Jianjia a few words along with Zhao's words, and then continued to greet each other. He asked specifically about Zhao's daily life, and expressed his concern for Zhao and Chu boss.
These days, Luo Jianjia and Aunt Wang are often together, and I often hear her talk about people and things in the village, and hear a lot of gossip from her.
And the village chief's daughter-in-law, Zhou, is also a person that Aunt Wang will mention on a daily basis.
In Aunt Wang's mouth, the Zhou family is a person who goes to the Three Treasures Palace without incident, and is also the most snobby.
Whoever is doing well in the village will be close to whoever is living. As for those who are poor, they will be ignored.
So, is she really just here to care about Zhao's life today
After about a quarter of an hour, Luo Jianjia's doubts were answered, and Zhou finally changed the subject.
"I'm relieved to hear that my sister-in-law said it well." Zhou Shi looked relieved, then her expression changed and she sighed.
When Zhao asked why she sighed, Zhou said, "It's not my worry-free daughter-in-law."
Hearing this, Mr. Zhao didn't take it down, and looked back at Luo Jianjia.
Zhao has long known what Li did, and Li once wanted to marry his son, which was embarrassing.
Zhou Shi didn't use them to express their position, and continued: "Now that she is pregnant, she vomits every day and can't eat anything."
Hearing this, Luo Jianjia raised her eyebrows, she thought, she probably knew why Zhou Shi came here.
Zhao Shi was also embarrassed for not answering, and said, "It is very hard to conceive a child, and it is not easy to be a mother."
"Isn't that right? When I was pregnant with the eldest, it was fine, but when I was pregnant with the second, I vomited so badly." Zhou Shi said.
Having said that, it is not easy for the two of them to be mothers.
In the end, Mrs. Zhou picked out her purpose: "I heard that my sister-in-law sold a food called Liangpi, which is cool and delicious. I wonder if you can give me some."
As if afraid of Mrs. Zhao's disagreement, Mrs. Zhou held Mrs. Zhao's hand and said, "I really have no choice but to trouble my sister-in-law."
Before Mrs Zhao spoke, Mrs Zhou took the initiative to talk about what Mrs Li had done before.
"... I know she did some stupid things before, and I hope my sister-in-law doesn't have the same knowledge as her. I have pity on her now that she is pregnant with our old Chu family's child. Give her some cold skin."
"Brother and sister, what are you talking about? I'll go and serve it for her." With that, Mr. Zhao quickly gave the remaining portion of Liangpi to Mrs. Zhou.
Until Zhou Shi left, Zhao Shi did not feel that he was being calculated, and he felt sorry for Li Shi: "Hey, being a mother is not easy. It's hard enough to be pregnant for ten months."
Luo Jianjia glanced at Zhao Shi and couldn't hold back, and said, "My aunt said that my sister-in-law started to vomit when she woke up in the morning, and she hadn't eaten all day. If she really eats Liangpi, she can go directly to the pier, why should she endure it? Come home for a day?"
Zhao Shi was stunned and said, "Your aunt just said that because of what her daughter-in-law did before, I'm embarrassed to go to our stall to buy it."
I'm embarrassed to buy it, but I'm embarrassed to ask for it
This also deceived an honest person like Zhao.
Luo Jianjia said again: "It's the sister-in-law who is in conflict with us, not the big brother Dan, nor the auntie. No matter how bad it is, you can ask other people in the village to buy it back. Why didn't you go?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao shi was stunned, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
