Chapter 100: Abused to the point of doubting life

The two sat and played chess.

Bai Xu can also play chess, and he thought his level was not bad, so he lean to the side to watch.

Looking at it, he suddenly felt bad.

It was true that the level of chess skills of these two people was not comparable to him at all, and they can easily hit people’s faces.

Mo Qingling was born into a prestigious family, older and stronger than him, which was normal.

However, Xiao Hanzheng’s chess skills were so superb, even slightly better than Mo Qingling, which made him feel surprised.

Seeing Shi Qingluo also concentrated on watching the two play chess.

Bai Xu asked cheaply: “Do you understand?”

Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow when she heard this: “Not only can I understand, but I can also play.”

“When they finish playing, shall we play a game?”

This guy underestimated her.

Bai Xu was slapped in the face by Mo Qingling and Xiao Hanzheng’s chess skills, so he just wanted to find a sense of presence. Shi Qingluo simply came to his door: “Okay!”

After waiting for a while, Mo Qingling and Xiao Hanzheng finished playing.

Xiao Hanzheng won.

Mo Qingling was very surprised, and obviously did not expect Xiao Hanzheng’s chess skills to be so superb.

He didn’t know, it was because of the pressure that he had only played half of the level of his previous life.

It was rare for Mo Qingling to find an opponent with such good chess skills in this small county, and originally wanted to play another game.

But he also heard what Bai Xu and Shi Qingluo said before.

He was a little curious about Shi Qingluo’s level of chess skills.

So he gave up his position: “You guys come and play the next round.”

Bai Xu and Shi Qingluo were not polite, they sat down and started playing chess.

At first, Bai Xu was calm and a little arrogant, but as he got down, his expression became more serious and hesitant.

The result was self-evident, Bai Xu was abused so much that he wanted to doubt his life.

He can’t compare to Mo Qingling and Xiao Hanzheng, but even a little village girl……

He looked like he had nothing to live for as he said: “You are so good at chess.”

Shi Qingluo lifted her chin arrogantly, “That’s natural.”

“In front of other people, I dare not say that I have a high level of chess skills, but in front of you, I can still call it a high level.”

She was often tortured and cried in those years, and she worked hard to study chess to achieve today’s results.

This little guy underestimated her, so of course she would make him cry too.

Bai Xu: “… …”

It hurts his heart.

Mo Qingling was surprised again. He didn’t expect that Shi Qingluo’s level of chess skills was not low.

She and Xiao Hanzheng have not been married for a very long time. Such a high level cannot be achieved in a short time.

So to say, she learned when she was in the Taoist temple.

He couldn’t hold back for a while: “Ms. Xiao, shall we play a game?”

Shi Qinglou nodded generously, “Okay!”

She also wants to compete with ancient chess masters.

For a big boss like her husband, she will accept her fate, and she can’t compare.

So the two started to play chess, and they fought step by step.

It took a long time to end the round, and the two tied.

Mo Qingling’s impression of Shi Qingluo has been elevated a lot.

When playing chess, you can tell what kind of person your opponent was. He found that this little woman was very grand and organized, and there was also a gap in her chest.

“You, husband and wife are both very good at chess, I can’t help but admire you.”

Shi Qinglou smiled and said: “The lord’s praise is too much!”

Then Mo Qingling played in the second round with Xiao Hanzheng.

As for Bai Xu, he has already gone to the side to draw circles and shut himself up.

When Shi Qingluo saw that the sky was almost dark, she got up and took Xiao Baili to the kitchen to prepare the cooking pot.

Mrs. Kong’s knife skills were good, so she was the one who cuts the mutton and cuts it into thin slices.

Because simply eating with plain water doesn’t taste good, Shi Qinglou asked her sister-in-law to stew chicken soup before they left earlier.

After putting onion, ginger, jujube, and other seasonings that can be bought in the county, she also added some dried wild mushrooms. This kind of broth will taste delicious.

She started to adjust the sauce.

In addition to sesame paste, there were also newly fermented bean curd sauce, and miso made from soybeans.

She also fried meat sauce with miso.

It was just a pity that the chili was unavailable, otherwise, it will be more delicious.

While preparing dinner, a strong fragrance wafted into the yard.

Shi Qingluo had already put an ice basin in the dining area, so now, the room was no longer hot.

Seeing that Mo Qingling and Xiao Hanzheng had just finished a game, she shouted, “It’s time to eat!”

Bai Xu originally wanted to leave, but he heard about the innovative eating method and sauce, so he stayed for a meal.

Several people sat down after washing their hands and saw that the pot in the middle was a little strange.

The main point was there was burning charcoal below the pot.

And there were lamb, pork, chicken, and fresh vegetables on the table.

Shi Qingluo brought in another wooden tray with several dipping sauces on it.

“This is sesame sauce, it’s the best when dipped in mutton.”

“This is fermented bean curd sauce, this is soybean paste, and this is meat sauce.”

“You can take whatever you like, or you can try it all.”

The dipping sauces she served were enough for everyone to taste one by one.

Except for Shi Qingluo, no one present had ever eaten this way.

Mo Qingling said with a smile: “I didn’t expect that there are so many ways to eat hot-boiled mutton. Let’s have a good taste today.”

Bai Xu also became interested: “It’s also the first time for me.”

He also saw business opportunities in it, after all, the Bai family started as a restaurant.

Mrs. Kong and Xiao Baili didn’t eat at the same table but ate in the kitchen room.

Mainly to avoid suspicion, after all, Xiao Baili was not engaged yet.

Shi Qingluo stayed with the others. Daliang’s defense of male and female were not very heavy, and there was no rule that married women could not sit at the table.

She was a married woman, and her husband was also on the side, so there was no need to avoid suspicion.

If Xiao Hanzheng was not around, it would not be suitable for her to sit and eat together.

In these aspects, although Shi Qingluo was a modern person, she always pay attention to it. She doesn’t want people to feel that she was a different kind.

And keeping a distance from the opposite sex was what a married woman should do. This was also a kind of respect for the young husband.

Of course, she would not go out and eat with a foreign man alone. If her husband dared to go out to play and eat with another woman alone, she would chase him away.

A few people were very careful at first, after all, they had never had a meal with someone like this before.

But after taking a few bites, they gradually let go.

Not to mention, this way of eating was not only innovative, but also delicious, and it brings people to get closer.

Especially when dipped in the dipping sauce prepared by Shi Qingluo, the taste was amazing.

On a hot day, a few people ate a hot boiled mutton pot and drank iced sour plum juice, and they felt comfortable all over.

Even Mo Qingling let go of the burden of being a son of a noble family and kept dipping meat with serving chopsticks.

His favorite was the sesame paste, followed by fermented bean curd sauce with sesame oil.

Bai Xu’s favorite was fermented bean curd sauce, followed by sesame sauce.

After eating, Xiao Hanzheng made Kung Fu tea again to relieve everyone’s boredom.

After resting for a while, Shi Qingluo went to stir a bowl of black sesame paste for everyone.

“My lord, what do you think of this sesame paste, sesame oil, sesame hair oil?”

Although Mo Qingling was full, he still finished the sesame paste: “Very good.”

He said sincerely: “If Nanxi County can make sesame paste, sesame oil, and sesame hair oil, I will first bring the people to thank Young Madam Xiao.”

This meal was the most comfortable meal he had eaten in Nanxi County, and he even felt the meal in the capital was inferior.

Xiao Xiucai’s wife was really capable.
