Go back to ancient times and marry a widow

Qiuxi was holding Douer and was about to walk up the mountain. When he heard the shout, he looked back and saw that it was Qi Wensheng running over from outside the village.

Qi Wensheng ran a few steps, then turned his head and said to Daniel, "Brother Daniel, help me take the things home first, and I will thank you later."

"Hey, thank you for that." Daniel took up the burden and walked to the other side, feeling a little uncomfortable because Qi Wensheng was so polite to him.

Qi Wensheng ran up to Qiuxi, first called out "Douer" cheerfully, and then asked Qiuxi, "Why did you come down the mountain?"

Qiuxi lifted a small crock in her hand and said to Qi Wensheng, "I'll change some goat's milk for Douer."

Qi Wensheng rubbed Dou'er's face with his fingers, and after hearing this, he told Qiuxi: "Be sure to cook it before serving it to Douer." There was no corresponding sterilization technology in ancient times, which is very important.

"Yeah." Qiuxi smiled in his heart. Of course he knew that the goat's milk had to be boiled before drinking, but he also knew that Qi Wensheng was kindly reminding him.

Qi Wensheng took out the gadgets he bought with the shopkeeper just now, and gently shook Dou'er. Seeing Douer's little face burst into a sweet smile instantly, Qi Wensheng felt soft in his heart.

"Dou'er, take it." Qi Wensheng handed the gadget into Dou'er's little hand.

"I just went to the town and saw this was good, so I bought it for Douer." Qi Wensheng looked at Qiuxi again and said.

After hearing this, Qiuxi shook her head quickly: "No, this is not possible." She said and grabbed Dou'er's little finger.

Seeing Douer's little mouth pursed in grievance, tears were about to burst into tears, Qi Wensheng said with some distress: "Oh, don't, this is not worth much." The back of Xi's hand.

Qiuxi seemed to be scalded to the heart by Qi Wensheng's wet and hot palm, he pulled out his hand in a panic, lowered his head halfway, and didn't dare to look at Qi Wensheng again.

It was only then that Qi Wensheng realized his unintentional action. Thinking that this was in the ancient times when men and women could not get close, he also felt a little embarrassed, took two steps back and said: "That, take it as a small gift from me to Douer. Well, you saved my life, didn't you?"

Qiuxi raised her head slightly, looked at Qi Wensheng's chest, and was about to say something to refuse again, when Qi Wensheng said directly, "I'm going home now, my mother must be waiting for me."

After Qi Wensheng finished speaking, he turned around and trotted up without waiting for Qiuxi to reply. Qiuxi gave him the feeling that he was a little stubborn, but full of backbone.

Qiuxi heard the footsteps of Qi Wensheng leaving, and looked up at the running figure. The afterglow of the setting sun in the sky cast a light golden light on Qi Wensheng's body. Qiuxi suddenly felt a little hot in his eyes. For the same warm reason.

After Qi Wensheng's figure disappeared beside a house, Qiu Xi withdrew his gaze from afar, and looked down at the gadget clutched in Dou'er's hand.

It was a delicate wavy drum, with a fat little doll painted on one side of the drum, and a playful little tiger on the other side.

Qiu Xi held Dou'er's little hand and shook the rattle twice. Hearing Dou'er's lovely laughter, he couldn't help but also smiled.

Douer's zodiac sign happens to be tiger, and this is also the first gift Douer has received. Although Qi Wensheng said that the snare drum doesn't have much money, Qiuxi thinks it should be very precious to him and Douer thing.

Walking on the mountain road with Dou'er in his arms, Qiu Xi looked back at the Qi family's house. In the past, he didn't have a deep impression of Qi Wensheng, but after getting along with him a few times recently, he could clearly feel Qi Wensheng's affection for him. bona fide.

It was open and frank, without the slightest pity, and it was also the kindness that Qiuxi really didn't want to reject in his heart.

In the mountains in the evening, the spring breeze carried a hint of coolness. Qiuxi wrapped Douer's clothes tightly and walked up the mountain facing the wind.He had a hunch that this might just be the beginning of Qi Wensheng's good intentions.

On the other side, after Qi Wensheng returned home, he naturally went to see Mrs. Liu first. When Mrs. Liu heard Qi Wensheng entering the house, she got up and groped forward, and said anxiously: "Wen Sheng, you are back. Mother is dying of anxiety."

With apology in his heart, Qi Wensheng hurried forward to hold Liu's arm, and explained: "I bought a little too much this time, and I was delayed on the way back. Fortunately, I met Brother Big Niu Woolen cloth."

Since Qi Wensheng went out in the morning, Mrs. Liu has been worrying about it. Now she really can't bear Qi Wensheng's troubles again.

"Next time there is something missing at home, I'd better let your Big Niu brother bring it back. You don't leave the village all year round, so mother is really worried." Mrs. Liu squeezed Qi Wensheng's hand tightly.

"Mm, I've made a note of it." Qi Wensheng tidied up the few silver strands scattered around Liu Shi's temples, and looking at Liu Shi's wet red eyes, he suddenly remembered the words "poor parents all over the world".

It can be said that Liu's treatment of the original owner was really dedicated, without expecting anything in return. Qi Wensheng knew that he had had this kind of maternal love when he was young, but his memory has become very blurred.

Qi Wensheng helped Mrs. Liu to the courtyard, took out the cakes bought from the town for Mrs. Liu to eat first, and then put the grain and pork in the stove.

"Mom, I also grabbed a few medicines for your eyes. You take them first and see how they work." Qi Wensheng said, and found a medicine pot from the cabinet in the kitchen.

Mrs. Liu swallowed the pastry in her mouth, and immediately disagreed: "Don't waste the money, my mother used to be dazzled when looking at things. This is an ancestral problem, and your grandfather was also like this."

It turns out that Mrs. Liu still has the problem of presbyopia, and the original owner didn't know about it, so Qi Wensheng didn't even know about it.But he couldn't explain to Liu that this had nothing to do with his ancestors, so he said seriously: "It's not a waste of money to buy medicine for your eye diseases. Do you really want to live in the future without seeing anything?"

Of course, Mrs. Liu didn't want to do this anymore, and there were many things she wanted to see in the future. "Okay, mother will listen to you." Liu said happily this time, she could feel Qi Wensheng's filial piety to her more and more, and she also felt that the current state was also a drag on Qi Wensheng.

Before it got dark, Qi Wensheng made dinner, and Mrs. Liu didn't eat much. Qi Wensheng basically ate up two plates of meat dishes and a bowl of white rice.

The road during the day was really long, Qi Wensheng fell asleep on the bed tired after dinner, and the window paper turned white again when he woke up.

Waking up with half-opened eyes in a daze, Qi Wensheng really wanted to fall asleep and sleep on him again.But he himself is very clear that laziness is his taboo at this time. If he lacked perseverance at the beginning, what great careers can he do in the future.

Qi Wensheng dressed neatly, went to the yard and rubbed his face with cold water, and then went out for a morning run as usual.This time, when he ran to the woods in the mountains, Qi Wensheng saw Qiuxi again from a distance.

That thin body, with Dou'er in his arms, and the firewood behind his back, went down the mountain quickly and steadily.Seeing these things in Qi Wensheng's eyes made him feel a little ashamed. It seems that he was kind enough to do Qiuxi a disservice that day.

Qi Wensheng didn't call Qiuxi to stop, he picked up his speed and ran up the mountain again. He found that the qualities of Qiuxi especially inspired him.

Almost an hour later, Qi Wensheng pushed open the courtyard door out of breath. Today he ran an extra section of the mountain road, and when he came back, he saw that Mrs. Liu had cooked porridge in the cauldron.

Qi Wensheng also really admired Liu Shi, an ancient peasant woman, whose eyes were barely able to see, yet she could actually cook and cook.

Even though he knew that Mrs. Liu didn't want him to be burdened by work, Qi Wensheng still disagreed and reminded Mrs. Liu that stove fires are also extremely dangerous.If a flame popped out and Mrs. Liu didn't know it, and ignited the dry firewood piled in the stove, no one would be able to put out the fire in time.

When Qi Wensheng said this, Mrs. Liu felt scared after thinking about it. It's not like this kind of thing happened in their village in the past.Fortunately, Qi Wensheng thought carefully this time, she nodded and agreed, never going into the kitchen to light a fire again until her eyes were healed.

After breakfast, Qi Wensheng let Mrs. Liu bask in the sun in the yard, and he went out of the house with a big bowl.

Of the three cakes he bought yesterday, one is mung bean cake that is not much different from the modern method and taste, one is steamed with glutinous rice flour and jujube paste called auspicious fruit, and the other is honey crisp. Made with honey mixed with lard and flour, the taste is naturally sweet and greasy.

Qi Wensheng probably understood that most of the people here like to eat sweet pastries, which made him feel that the Western-style pastries he made would have a market in the future.

Combined with the impression of the original owner, Qi Wensheng also discovered that people here do not have the habit of using milk to make food.Or maybe there is, it must be cooked by the royal chef in the palace for the emperor and the empresses.After all, this was a farming-based dynasty, and the cattle were also farming cattle, which was not suitable for the large and multi-purpose use of milk.

But this made Qi Wensheng feel that it was of great benefit to him. Milk is a very frequently used ingredient in pastries, and he is best at desserts made with milk.

However, Qi Wensheng didn't dare to be too blindly confident before he made the results. There are no baking facilities here. If he wants to break out of the world alone, he has to overcome many difficulties.

Qi Wensheng found a family and bought a large bowl of milk with two cents. He carefully walked back with the bowl in his hand, saying that even if there were difficulties, he would not worry about it. It's enough to eat a fat man.

After returning home, Qi Wensheng found out what he was going to use next, or the only few raw materials he had at home, and started working with confidence as soon as he rolled up his sleeves.
