Zhao Minglang did not show off, and said excitedly: "Old Zhao is going to attend a chamber of commerce, and I want to go with him. I just want to bring Chaotian pepper with me so that those old guys can see it. As long as one of them is interested, your Chaotian pepper will be available next year."
You can make a lot of money!"
After that, he winked at Song Xixi and said, "How about it? Brother, I'll be nice to you, and I won't forget to get you involved in such a good thing! But you don't have to be too grateful, just don't raise the price for me!"
Song Xixi was unmoved: "You can't afford it without profit. You are so active. Don't you also want to take the opportunity to make a fortune?"
Zhao Minglang was told what he was thinking. Not only was he not embarrassed, he was also very confident: "It is not shameful to make money by relying on your own skills and connections. It is also true that I will expand the market for Chaotian pepper for you. You have to accept this favor, right?"
Song Xixi nodded: "Of course."
Cooperation is a win-win situation, and since they are friends, it would be great if both of them can make money.
Zhao Minglang was so proud that he raised his chin and said, "Let's go then. Show me how the Chaotian peppers look like. If you can pick them, pick a batch today. I will have to go with Old Zhao tomorrow."
Song Xixi led him out of the yard without saying a word.
When I walked to the door, I happened to meet Zhang Xiaomei and Ya'er who were coming back from the vegetable garden.
An old man and a young man each carried a bamboo basket, which was full of vegetables, red, green, purple, and the colors were so rich.
Seeing Zhao Minglang, Zhang Xiaomei's face put on a smile: "Minglang is here, I just hunted a pheasant, and stewed it with potatoes for you to try."
Zhao Mingli didn't hear the old lady's words at all, and his eyes fell directly on Ya'er.
Ya'er didn't know Zhao Mingliang, so she couldn't help but frown when she saw him staring at her without blinking.
From Zhang Xiaomei's attitude and Zhao Minglang's clothes, she guessed that he was a distinguished guest of the Song family, so she put away her displeasure, walked up to Song Xixi with a smile, and conjured a little thing like a magic trick: "Girl, I'm in the vegetable garden.
I saw it in the house, can we keep it?"
Song Xixi took a closer look and saw that it was a gray little rabbit.
The little rabbit must have just been full moon, and it looked like it was only as big as Ya'er's hand. Its nose was twitching, and its big bright eyes were looking at Song Xixi clearly. It was not afraid of people at all, and it was a bold little hare.
Seeing that Ya'er really likes her, how could Song Xixi object? "Well, as long as it is willing to eat, it's okay to keep it as a pet."
Ya'er touched the rabbit's little head, with a smile on her charming face: "I will take good care of it, raise it fat, and make spicy rabbit meat for the girl to eat in winter!"
The meat of rabbits raised by yourself must be very delicious!
Song Xixi: "..."
What kind of devil is it to make spicy rabbit meat from a raised rabbit?
Looking at the ignorant little rabbit, Song Xixi secretly lit some wax for it: "Rabbits are timid and can't be scared. You put it in the bamboo cage first and don't let Wubai get close, otherwise it will scare to death."
Ya'er nodded repeatedly: "I understand."
After saying that, she turned a blind eye to Zhao Minglang's scorching gaze and went into the house holding the little rabbit in her arms.
Song Xixi didn't notice Zhao Minglang's strange behavior. She spoke to Zhang Xiaomei and greeted the stunned him: "Let's go."
Zhao Mingliang came to his senses and followed her a little distractedly.
However, Zhang Xiaomei saw something and stared at Zhao Mingliang's tall back for a while before going in with the vegetable basket on her arm.
On the way, Zhao Mingliang was a little absent-minded, looking at Song Xixi from time to time, with a trace of tangle on his handsome face.
Song Xixi was not blind, and she quickly saw that something was wrong with him: "What's wrong?"
Zhao Mingliang changed his arrogant look from King Tianliang, and his ears turned red visibly: "Who was the person who just talked to you? How come I haven't seen him before when I came to your house?"
Song Xixi said in surprise: "That's Ya'er, have you never seen it?"
Zhao Minglang was speechless: "If I had seen you, I would have asked you what to do."
Song Xixi thought for a moment and remembered that in the first month of the year, this guy came to pay New Year's greetings. Ya'er, who lived at her grandparents' house, was with her two elders that day and didn't come over for dinner. She just missed it. The two of them had never met.
Song Xixi didn't see what Zhao Minggang was thinking, and thought he was just asking casually, so she replied: "She is homeless, and my family has temporarily taken her in. To be more specific, she and I are friends..."
Ya'er regards herself as her maid, but she has never thought of it that way. When Ya'er can live independently in the future, or gets married and has a family, her family will be half of her natal family.
After learning about Ya'er's life experience, Zhao Mingliang couldn't help but feel distressed: "So she is so pitiful..."
Song Xixi glanced at him: "Put away your sympathy, she doesn't like others to treat her with sympathy."
When Zhao Mingliang heard this, a silly smile appeared on his face unconsciously: "It's really different."
Song Xixi still couldn't see through his thoughts and quite agreed with his words: "That's true."
How many people can tell you how to turn a raised rabbit into spicy rabbit meat? If this was exposed on the Internet in the past life, it would be sprayed to death by those small animal lovers.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Mingliang asked some more things related to Ya'er.
Not only did they know that Ya'er's name was Lin Chunya, but they also knew that she studied in the Song Jia'ao family school. She was talented and hardworking, and was the best student in the school.
In the Song family's kitchen, Ya'er asked Zhang Xiaomei about Zhao Minglang's identity while picking vegetables.
After knowing that he was a friend of Song Xixi and a partner of the Song family, I was glad that he had not acted rudely just now, otherwise he would have offended the guest and would have harmed his girl.
But thinking of Zhao Minglang's eyes, Ya'er frowned again: This person is frivolous and not a good person. Could he pretend to be innocent and deceive the girl?
No, the girl is young and is the easiest to be deceived. When the girl comes back, she must remind the girl!
Zhang Xiaomei misunderstood and thought Ya'er was interested in Zhao Mingliang.
Thinking that she was thirteen, she was at the age when love first started, and she was a good match for the sixteen-year-old Zhao Mingliang.
With this pretty appearance and temperament, there is no choice. But her background is a bit poor, her parents are gone, and the Zhao family's family background is unlikely to accept her as an orphan. You can't let such a good girl be given to others.
Be a concubine.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaomei said sincerely: "In my heart, you are half my granddaughter. If you believe grandma, if you choose a husband in the future, grandma will give you a slap in the face!"
Ya'er didn't know that the old lady had misunderstood. When she heard her talking about her marriage, she immediately blushed: "Old lady, I'm still young, please stop teasing me..."
Zhang Xiaomei smiled and said: "Sooner or later, the girl will get married. When you are old, you have to take your time to look good."
Ya'er was stunned, with the words that the girl would get married sooner or later echoing in her mind, her mood became inexplicably low, and she was even a little irritable.
