After the villagers planted the lettuce seeds given by Ke Ziqing, the first batch of lettuce finally yielded a good harvest.
However, not many people buy it. After all, it is a new variety and it is not cheap. It is more than twice as expensive as ordinary vegetables.
Many housewives worry that the food they buy will not taste good and will be a waste of money.
In the afternoon after the exam, Lin Mai went to Fuduoduo Vegetable Market and made boiled lettuce, cold lettuce, stir-fried lettuce... for customers to taste.
The lettuce is crisp and tender, and customers say it is delicious after trying it.
Only then did lettuce become accepted by the public, and sales slowly increased.
After promoting lettuce at the market, Lin Mai went to the flagship store of Yinhuo Renjian to demonstrate how to eat barbecue wrapped in lettuce.
A barbecue meal is not cheap, and it is even more expensive to eat grilled fish, grilled whole lamb, grilled seafood, etc.
Therefore, almost all the people who come to Renjian Fireworks BBQ restaurant to spend money are young people.
Older people are used to being thrifty. Even if they want to eat barbecue, they will only eat at cheap roadside stalls and will not easily spend money on fireworks.
Young people accept new things quickly, and the method of eating meat wrapped in lettuce quickly became popular.
Many barbecue restaurant owners have therefore purchased Lin Mai's lettuce.
Fortunately, Ke Ziqing gave me a lot of lettuce seeds, so I could plant more. Otherwise, the supply would exceed demand.
The roasted whole lamb of Renrenyanhuo is not so greasy when eaten wrapped with lettuce. The roasted whole lamb can be considered a comeback with lettuce.
However, Lin Mai still plans to officially take the winter vacation after getting the final exam scores, and go to Inner Mongolia to buy some sheep varieties that Uncle Kurban needs and come back to make roasted whole sheep.
Since you want to make roasted whole lamb the signature dish of Adult Fireworks BBQ Restaurant, you can’t be vague in choosing the lamb.
Use whatever sheep you need to achieve the best results.
And she also wanted to bring back some beef to fill the gap where there was no beef in the market.
Although these tasks can be left to the buyer, she also wants to travel.
A few days later, it was the day of the end-of-school ceremony and the day when the results of the final exam were released.
Lin Mai did very well in the final exam of the first semester of her senior year of high school, ranking eighth in the grade, and the school agreed to her application to skip a grade.
Lin Mai was very happy. He went to the market to buy a lot of ingredients and planned to go home and make a delicious meal to celebrate.
When she returned home with the ingredients, Aunt Huang had just finished cleaning, and Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang were not at home.
Doudou had gone on winter vacation more than a week ago. Every morning after breakfast, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang would take her to do Tai Chi.
Doudou has a heart disease and has undergone surgery, so he cannot exercise strenuously, but he can still do gentle exercise like Tai Chi.
Lin Mai asked Aunt Huang to get off work early and she would make lunch by herself.
Just after cleaning and preparing the ingredients, I heard Ke Ziqing's voice coming from outside the courtyard door.
Lin Mai once thought that he had heard wrongly. Ke Ziqing was in Guangzhou.
But she still subconsciously glanced out of the window and saw Ke Ziqing standing outside the courtyard door.
She dropped what she was doing and ran out to open the door for Ke Ziqing.
The Ke Ziqing in front of him surprised Lin Mai.
She looked haggard, her hair was a little messy, her face looked unwashed, and she had two big panda eyes.
The little leather shoes are dirty and can easily remind people of a lost girl.
This was the second time Lin Mai saw her looking like a lost girl.
Lin Mai quickly pulled her into the yard and walked quickly into the house.
She looked at Ke Ziqing's appearance: "Did you come here during the 25,000-mile long march?"
"No, I came from Guangzhou, which can only be counted as four 250-mile small long marches."
"Then it won't be so embarrassing. Did you come by train?"
"yes!"
"How can you do this by taking a train?"
Ke Ziqing straightened her mouth in grievance: "I...I fought with Chen Feng all the way, that's it..."
Lin Mai was extremely shocked: "Chen Feng went to see you on New Year's Day. Didn't you tell me that the two of you got along very sweetly?
Why did the fight start again, and it went all the way from Guangzhou to Jiangcheng?"
Ke Ziqing sobbed: "He bullied me."
Lin Mai didn't believe that Chen Feng would bully her.
But I still asked: "Why did he bully you?"
Ke Ziqing bit her lip and said nothing.
The two entered the living room. Lin Mai asked Ke Ziqing to wash her face, brush her teeth and comb her hair, and then go to her room to get a set of cotton pajamas to put on.
When Ke Ziqing packed herself up and went downstairs, she looked normal.
Lin Mai put a cup of brewed milk in front of her and asked, "Why did you two fight? Tell me."
Ke Ziqing took two sips of hot milk and told her the reason why she and Chen Feng were fighting.
Ever since Chen Feng came to Guangzhou to spend the festival with her on New Year's Day, their relationship has rapidly heated up.
Ke Ziqing felt that one day without seeing Chen Feng was like three autumns, so she asked Chen Feng to visit her when he had time.
Chen Feng went to Guangzhou to visit her again two days ago.
Ke Ziqing took him to a bar, and both of them got extremely drunk.
When she woke up in the morning, she was horrified to find that she and Chen Feng were lying together.
It took her five minutes to get dressed, and another fifteen minutes to beat Chen Feng severely.
Then I ran all the way to the train station, bought a ticket, and rushed to Jiangcheng to cry to Lin Mai.
But Lin Mai didn't see the slightest hint of crying on her face, only gritted teeth.
"Are you sure...you and Chen Feng really had a relationship?"
Lin Mai was deeply suspicious of this matter. She didn't think that the neurotic Ke Ziqing had the wisdom to distinguish whether she literally slept with Chen Feng, or whether she slept with Chen Feng, or whether she slept with Chen Feng literally.
, was slept with by Chen Feng.
Ke Ziqing nodded sadly, "I can... I saw... blood on the bed. I have no strength all over. My legs are weak and... hurt..."
She held the milk and looked at Lin Mai: "You know that kind of pain."
Lin Mai felt confused: "How could I know~"
Ke Ziqing gave her a look of disdain: "You have moved in with Professor Fang and you are still pretending~"
Lin Mai suddenly felt her head pounding, and she stroked her forehead: "Let's continue talking about you."
Ke Ziqing blinked: "I've finished all my business."
She suddenly howled: "I'm going to kill Chen Feng! He doesn't understand what it means to pity the beauty and cherish the jade!"
Lin Mai comforted her for a while and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Ke Ziqing looked surprised and said: "Why are you asking me this question? Isn't this your concern? Otherwise, why would I come all the way here?"
This statement is truly irrefutable.
Lin Mai scratched his brows speechlessly, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Chen Feng's voice coming from outside the courtyard gate.
She was going to open the door for him, but Ke Ziqing held her tightly: "Don't open the door for him!"
Lin Mai said helplessly: "If you don't let him in, how will you two resolve the matter?"
She took Ke Ziqing's hand and went to open the door for Chen Feng.
Chu Feng's appearance is much better than that of Ke Ziqing, at least he looks like he has washed his face, but one eye is slightly bruised.
Chen Feng's first words were: "Is Ziqing here with you? Is she okay?"
"Yeah, she's pretty good."
Most of the nervousness on Chen Feng's face disappeared immediately, and he complained: "You damn girl almost scared me to death. She disappeared like a loach after getting off the train in the crowd."
Lin Mai hesitated and asked, "Did you really bully Zi Qing?"
