Chapter 365: Don’t make the contrast too strong

Shi Qingluo promised to give Xi Rui a big goose, which made Xi Rui very excited.

“Qingluo, after dinner, let’s go choose my goose.”

Liang Youxiao also came to Shi Qingluo: “Qingluo, I want a goose too.”

Xi Rong raised her hand: “And me.”

Qi Yiyang also hurriedly said: “Qingluo, me too.”

Although he had to separate from Shi Qingluo and others later, he also wanted to take a big goose to his county government to guard his house.

He didn’t know it before, but now he found that big geese were so fierce.

Of course, the big geese in Shi Qingluo’s family were fiercer and smarter than ordinary geese.

Shi Qingluo asked Daidai again, and Daidai nodded indifferently.

There were too many geese and they were big. Of course, it doesn’t want to take care of it as a father, so it’s just right to send it away.

So Shi Qingluo promised to let a few people pick a big goose by themselves.

The others were very envious.

Someone couldn’t help asking: “Shi Qingluo, are you selling that big goose? I want to buy one from you.”

Shi Qingluo shook his head, “Sorry, I don’t sell my geese.”

Another person said: “It’s okay to sell one, right? I’ll pay a high price for one.”

Shi Qingluo glanced at him and raised an eyebrow: “Do you think I look like someone who needs that little money?”

The other person: “……”

She was not.

He had heard a lot before that Shi Qingluo gets dividends from Liang Youxiao and Xi Rong’s shops every month.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel jealous. It seems that these children from aristocratic families don’t have as much money as a village woman.

Soon the dishes came up.

Daidai was very smart and sensible. When everyone was eating, it lay obediently at Shi Qingluo’s feet.

Seeing this, everyone was itching to have more.

This was the best restaurant in town. The food tastes good. Anyway, Shi Qingluo ate well.

Although Xi Rui and his friends were picky, they wouldn’t deliberately make trouble. Seeing Shi Qingluo eating well, they also ate a lot.

Most of the children of the noble families also started eating when they saw this.

Hu Mincai was carried to the carriage to treat his injuries. Without him making trouble, the atmosphere of the whole team was not so tense.

After the meal, Xi Rui and his friends couldn’t wait to run to the carriage with geese in the back.

Each of them picked a big goose according to their preferences.

Then they carried it to their carriages, under the pretext of cultivating feelings with the big geese.

When they first tried to hold the geese, they were almost bitten. Each one was so fierce.

Seeing this, Shi Qingluo asked Daidai to talk to his sons.

Daidai walked over heroically and called to his geese several times.

Several big geese obediently let Xi Rui and his friends carry them to the carriage.

Everyone was stunned again. These geese have become spirits.

Especially the one raised by Shi Qingluo, it doesn’t look like a goose at all, it was too spiritual.

Then they continue on their journey and stay at the post station at night.

Hu Mincai was disgusted again, but this time he didn’t dare to make trouble for Shi Qingluo.

He was traumatized by the goose bite.

He just secretly thought about how to get revenge.

He drove for half a month, getting farther and farther away from the capital. The cement road was gone long ago, and the road was bumpy.

Although Shi Qingluo’s carriage used tires and shock-absorbing springs, it was still bumpy, but not as bumpy as others.

Many of the children of the noble families who had never left the capital got car sick.

Then you can see Shi Qingluo and others pushing bicycles off the carriage.

On such a bad dirt road, bicycles were naturally not so easy to ride, but riding with the wind was better than lying in the carriage all the time.

People who get carsick were so envious, thinking why they didn’t think of bringing their bicycles with them.

On this day, because they were delayed in taking shelter from the rain in the morning, they could not find a town or village to eat at noon.

So Commander Wei asked everyone to get off the carriage and eat the steamed buns he bought in the morning.

The children of the noble families complained one by one.

But they were hungry and had to eat.

The weather was still too hot, and they were sweating even when sitting under the shade of the tree.

Then they saw Shi Qingluo directing the maids brought by Xi Rong to set up a few ice basins.

They also took a lot of cold melons down from the carriage and put them in the ice basins to cool.

They lit the fire and cooked noodles, and then asked someone to pick up the noodles and add vegetable oil while fanning them with a fan.

This operation was a bit confusing for everyone.

Even Commander Wei couldn’t help asking: “Madam Shi, what are you doing?”

Why were they cooking noodles but not eating them?

Shi Qingluo said with a smile: “We are making cold noodles. It’s too hot, and we don’t want to eat hot soup noodles.”

Commander Wei: “……”

These people come for fun.

“Is the cold noodles delicious?” He had never eaten it before.

Shi Qingluo said with a smile: “It’s delicious! I’ll make a bowl for you later. You’ve worked hard to escort us along the way.”

Commander Wei felt very comfortable when he heard this.

Although they were escorting along the way, these little guys were too difficult to serve. They were picky about this and disliked that.

Not only did they not think they were working hard, they also thought they were supposed to do it.

Originally, he thought that Xi Rui and other high-ranking dandies would be the most difficult to deal with, but who would have thought that they would be quite easy-going with Shi Qingluo?

On the contrary, Hu Mincai’s group was the most troublesome.

The smile on his face deepened: “Thank you very much.”

In his heart, he has a better and better impression of Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng. With this comparison, his impression of Hu Mincai and others was naturally getting worse.

After the cold noodles and vegetables were ready, they mixed in the seasonings prepared by Mrs. Kong and Xiao Baili.

The two now cooked better and better, and the seasonings they prepared were also delicious.

Not only did Xi Rui and others applaud after eating, but also Commander Wei and the other guards praised it for being delicious.

Shi Qingluo didn’t give anything to Hu Mincai and others.

So they suddenly felt that the steamed buns in their hands were even more unpalatable.

The contrast was too strong.

Are these people here to travel or to have fun? It was too much.

In their heart, they regretted why they didn’t take people to buy things in the county and town they passed by, like Shi Qingluo.

Before, they saw Shi Qingluo buy a lot of things every time they passed by the town, like the noodles she was cooking now. At that time, they laughed in their hearts. Village women were village women as if they had never seen good things.

What’s more, it’s not a good thing. They won’t eat noodles like that.

Now they realize that they were wrong. They want to have a bowl now.

After Shi Qingluo and others finished eating the cold noodles, they saw the other party cut the iced watermelon.

The watermelon slices were red juicy, and cold. They wanted to eat……

Unfortunately, Shi Qingluo didn’t see their desire at all, and quickly took people to eat all the watermelon.

She also gave each of the escorting guards a slice.

This made Hu Mincai and others very uncomfortable.

One of them couldn’t help asking Shi Qingluo: “Why do you give the guards food, but not us?”

Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow: “The guards have worked hard to escort us all the way, they should eat.”

“As for you, what did you do? Besides, our relationship with you is not good enough for me to send food.”

  1. Does anyone know who Hu Mincai is supposed to be? At first i thought it was the guy who ran around screaming he was a flower thief but the gang seems to hate him too much for that. So who is he? And why do we hate him so much?
