Traveling through mountains and rivers

Ning Ze woke up, but didn't get up to find Tao Qing, and fell asleep on the bed with his eyes closed.

Sometimes a person's body is more honest than his heart, and his body responds. This is beyond doubt, but...

Ning Ze smiled wryly, but this feeling made him a little helpless, and he didn't know what to do.

After living for so many years, Ning Ze never knew that one day he would not dare to face the reaction of his body.

To him, Tao Qing was someone who had the same face as the person he liked in his previous life, and he was the responsibility of his current body, and if there were no accidents, he would stay with him for the rest of his life.

But it was precisely because of this that Ning Ze was afraid to face it. He didn't know if it was his body's instinctive reaction, or if he also had feelings for Tao Qing, and he didn't know if he was looking at the same face and sent him to Tao Qing. as another person.

These days, getting along was very ordinary. The most things Tao Qing did with him were going up and down the mountain, going home from the market, or he watched Tao Qing cook in the kitchen, and the two of them chatted about irrelevant gossip.

Or in other words, when it was dark, there would always be someone holding a torch to look for him by the river, and then the two of them would go home together.

Tao Qing didn't give him anything except company.

But if it wasn't for this relationship, why would Tao Qing accompany her?

Ning Ze didn't hate Tao Qing, let alone the feeling of getting along with him, but the feeling seemed to come sooner than he expected, and it came before he was ready.

Ning Ze closed his eyes, his heart went blank, he never knew that he would be helpless in front of emotions.

Ning Ze was awake and knew when Tao Qing went to bed, Ning Ze was awake and knew when Tao Qing hugged his back from behind, and he was also awake and thought all night.

However, nothing came of it overnight.

……

The next day, because Ning Ze didn't sleep well at night, he naturally got up late, and it was Tao Qing who made breakfast and called him.

Ning Ze was a little embarrassed. He deserted while sleeping last night and overslept this morning. Even a group of children got up earlier than him.

Breakfast was pretty good too. Tao Qing woke up and cooked noodles, pumpkin porridge, and hot and sour rice noodles.

The noodle soaked overnight finally softened, Tao Qing followed what Ning Ze said yesterday, and boiled the noodle when he got up the next day.

There was nothing to eat in the morning, so he didn’t have to go to the table. He ate with a bowl by himself. When Ning Ze went to the kitchen, others had already ate with bowls. There were only two bowls of hot and sour noodles left in the kitchen. A bowl of Tao Qing is a bowl.

Ning Ze tasted the hot and sour powder, and it was quite tasty, but it was not tasty enough, it might have something to do with the chili. There is no chili in this hot and sour powder, and the sourness is just a little vinegar. In general, Still not enough flavor.

Ning Ze thought that there were sour radishes and capers at home, so he asked Tao Qing to pick some up, cut them into small pieces and put them in a bowl.

The beans are not only sour, but also spicy enough to taste better in a bowl.

Ning Ze said, "It seems that you still need good chili peppers. You can't take the cooked ones with you. You didn't cook all the soaked peppers, did you?"

Tao Qing shook his head, "No, there are still some left, I was afraid you would use them, so I kept some."

Ning Ze nodded, "That's good, let's eat, we'll go to the town when we're done eating, and make all of these, and get the money back."

Tao Qing nodded and continued eating hot and sour noodles.

But he asked worriedly, "Aze, do you think the shopkeeper will really give us so much money? These things are not difficult, and they are not expensive things."

Ning Ze said, "You don't have to worry about this. Since the shopkeeper said it, he didn't just talk about it casually. What's more, besides this, I can add a few more dishes later. If the shopkeeper is willing to give the money, I am too embarrassed to accept it."

After breakfast, Ning Ze and Tao Qing went to the town again with their things. The Tao family knew what they were going to do, and this money-making thing naturally wouldn't stop them.

When they arrived in the town, they went straight to Laiyue Restaurant. They came early today, so they happened to see what the people eating for breakfast. If the shopkeeper himself said, it is really nothing unusual. Omurice is considered the most Rare, the others are the most common ones like steamed buns and wontons.

Restaurants generally don’t sell biscuits, so there are very few tricks.

The arrival of Ning Ze and the others seemed like lucky stars to the shopkeeper, and they quickly led them into the kitchen.

When they came by themselves, they brought a lot of things, such as the noodles that can be made into ramen directly, and the soaked vermicelli that can be directly made into hot and sour noodles, followed by pumpkin and eight-treasure porridge. Materials, they all brought their own.

Ning Ze was not busy explaining anything to the shopkeeper, he and Tao Qing started to work after arriving in the kitchen, first boiled two kinds of porridge, and then boiled the ramen.

He also asked the shopkeeper to fetch eggs and tea leaves, and asked someone to cut pickles.

If things are sold separately, like pumpkin porridge, it will look a bit cold. In order to prevent this from happening in the restaurant, Ning Ze plans to sell it as a package for the shopkeeper. In addition to these two porridges, you can also add preserved egg and lean meat porridge , white porridge, polenta and the like, can be matched in multiple ways.

But the things that are produced now are not ready for today's breakfast, so the two of them are not in a hurry, they come to the same thing, and start matching after everything is ready.

There are only six as mentioned before, but after seeing the ingredients in the kitchen here, Ning Ze came up with a lot of new tricks, and this toss is more than a dozen.

Ning Ze also matched several so-called set meals for the shopkeeper, such as lean meat in porridge with two small steamed buns, two tea eggs, and a pile of pickles.

Two egg pancakes are paired with eight-treasure porridge; steamed buns are paired with pumpkin porridge, and sausages are paired, etc. Anyway, there are various combinations, and it all depends on personal taste.

The selling price of this kind of set meal can also be higher. The shopkeeper is very satisfied with Ning Ze's proposal. Looking at the more than ten kinds of food on the table, he is not satisfied.

The shopkeeper said, "Ah Ze, it's a pity that you don't have the brain to study. Otherwise, you will definitely be able to pass the exam and come back. How could you make money like this at that time!"

Ning Ze smiled, "Shopkeeper, you're joking, I'm not that material, I'm only thinking about it because of the pressure of life, otherwise how could I come up with these things."

The shopkeeper looked at these things, they were indeed not very valuable, and they were not very rare, as Ning Ze said, he believed them.

In order to make the shopkeeper feel the value of his 500 taels of silver, Ningze added a few more dishes, and they were all big dishes, which could definitely be sold as signature dishes.

The shopkeeper's smiling eyes could hardly be seen, and without further ado, he took the bank note and gave it to Ning Ze.

Ning Ze happily accepted the silver ticket. Kung fu is not for nothing, let alone breakfast, even those big dishes, the shopkeeper can definitely make a fortune.

Adding the words from the shopkeeper, if there are restaurants in their county town, Ning Ze knows that the shopkeeper is not as simple as it seems on the surface, just like Mo Qi, he looks like a doctor, but this well-connected man is not as simple as he looks. Not like a doctor.

After collecting the banknotes, he thanked the shopkeeper, and Ning Ze asked the shopkeeper for the egg pancakes they made, and took them to see Mo Qi.

Although I don't need to see a doctor now, I still go for a walk every now and then, and it's like an exchange of feelings between friends.

Mo Qi was obviously more interested in the food brought by Ning Ze. When Ning Ze was sitting opposite him, Mo Qi was eating all the time. Occasionally, Ning Ze said a few words before he responded. Ning Ze felt bored, so he simply took Tao Qing left.

Tao Qing found it funny when he looked at his temper, but he didn't smile openly because he was afraid that Ning Ze would be embarrassed, but secretly covered his mouth and smiled for a while, and Ning Ze felt even more unhappy when he saw it accidentally. .

When he realized his current childish behavior, his face immediately turned dark, and his whole body was in a bad mood. It was obviously not him, how could he do such a thing?

It must be possessed by something, for sure!

And Tao Qing watched him change his face all the way, laughing uncontrollably.

Because they had already been to the town yesterday, they didn't buy anything, and went home directly after taking the bank notes.

On the way, Ning Ze discussed with Tao Qing about whether to give money to the Tao family. The Tao family knows what they are here today. Although they don’t know how much money they have, they must have it. , that's their business.

Ning Ze's idea was to give, as much as possible, and it was considered as helping them save money for the house, but Tao Qing was a little embarrassed, Ning Ze must have given the money because of him, he felt that he was always helping It's like home.

Tao Qing didn't have the nerve to say what was on his mind, but let Ning Ze figure it out for himself, and he didn't take part in this matter.

Ning Ze didn't know what Tao Qing was thinking, so he made his own decision. He didn't want to give too much, so he gave 20 taels of silver. Tao's grandma is still lying on the bed. They want to buy it themselves, so they have to spend some money.

Regardless of what Tao Qing said, Ning Ze told Tao Qing what he thought, but Tao Qing didn't say anything, neither agreed nor objected, and Ning Ze took it as his acquiescence.

In the evening, I handed over the money to Tao Deshu. Tao Deshu said he was unwilling to accept it. Tao Deshu said, "Yaoze, I know what you're thinking, but I really can't accept the money. The family still has money to use to repair the house." Anzi and the others can earn the money themselves, you have earned money, but we can't ask you for nothing."

Ning Ze said, "Father, Ah Qing and I honor you, so you can accept it, we just give it to you and Ah Mo, it has nothing to do with the older brothers."

Tao Deshu still didn't want to accept it, "Yaoze, this won't work. I won't accept the money if I say I can't accept it. Since you still call me daddy, then you can take the money back. If the family really can't open the pot, I'll be generous." The old face will also talk to you."

The two spoke in a loud voice, which attracted the rest of the Tao family. Hearing that the two were arguing over money, neither of them knew how to open the mouth, and they both stood Watched the door.

They knew Dad's temperament, and if they said no, they didn't want it. In the end, Ning Ze had no choice but to take back the money.

He could only think about helping the Tao family more in other places in the future.
