husband in another world

"It's delicious to make dumplings with fine white flour. We don't have any white flour at home. Let's buy some back." Zhou Jing tightly grasped the little husband's slender and moist hands, looked at the tips of the little husband's red ears, and felt relieved for a while. The slowly flowing creek wraps gently, tenderly.

"What do you guys buy?" Shen Lin was left watching the mule cart outside the shop, while Zhou Jing and Shen Mo entered the grain and oil shop.

"How much is your fine white flour per catty?" Zhou Jing asked.

The shopkeeper saw that Zhou Jing and Shen Mo were wearing coarse cloth, although the material was not the cheapest low-grade coarse linen, but it was still coarse cloth after all, so he felt that they would not be customers who had spare money and could afford fine white flour.But as soon as Zhou Jing entered the store, he asked about the white noodles, without mentioning anything else. Obviously, he had a goal. The shopkeeper couldn't figure out what price to introduce.Those who do business have their own ability to see people order dishes. They will judge the person's general economics based on the person's clothing, and then introduce the corresponding rice noodles to him according to the person's economics.In this way, the embarrassment of introducing high prices to the low ones is eliminated, and the high ones are persuaded to buy low prices, which makes the high ones feel humiliated.

The shopkeeper tentatively asked, "Do you two want to eat it yourself or give it away?"

Zhou Jing himself is a businessman, and he knows the twists and turns, and he can only serve different customers with different needs in the market.

He smiled and said, "Although we eat for ourselves, we want to buy some good ones. The shopkeeper will introduce some good ones, and the price is not less than a dozen copper coins."

The shopkeeper was stunned at first, he didn't expect these two ordinary peasants to be so rich, although he was worried that they would think they were too expensive and would not sell them, but that's how it is when they open the door for business, not everyone who enters the door has to pay.

The shopkeeper dutifully led them to the inner room, where all fine grains were stored.

"Two guests, what do you think of this? This is the best snowflake noodle in our town. It costs twenty yuan a catty. It is eaten by many wealthy lords. The white noodles next to it are also good, at seventeen cents a catty. It’s just a little less delicate, but it’s enough for us to make and eat at home, and this is what I eat at home.”

Having been short of food and clothing since childhood, Shen Mo has a natural liking for food.I carefully compared the two types of white noodles. As the shopkeeper said, it seems that one is finer than the other in terms of quality, and I think it should not be much different.

Just as he was about to point to the cheap one, Zhou Jing gently squeezed his palm.

"Let's buy that expensive copper plate, which is not less than three Wen a catty. It's not a luxury, but I want to give you a New Year's Eve dinner." Zhou Jing's tone was clear and casual, with a casual tone.However, such a few simple words instantly made Shen Mo's eyes red and his nose sore.

Shen Mo is not a crybaby personality, he doesn't shed tears easily, so he desperately forced back the dampness from the corners of his eyes.But the emotion in my heart turned into a sea, and the waves were turbulent.

Shen Mo thinks this is probably the performance of one person putting another person on top of his heart.Obviously, it has been a long time ago, so long that the person concerned feels that it is in the past, thinking of it is just a painless scar.But some people keep this shallow scar in their hearts, keep it in their hearts, dare not forget it all the time, and try to make up for the damage caused by this scar.

The shopkeeper understood it as soon as he heard it, and thought that these two people had suffered a lot. Seeing that they were wearing slightly better coarse cloth, he knew that life had just started to improve, and the man wanted to make up for what his husband had eaten with him all these years bitter.

This is a sad and beautiful thing.The shopkeeper instantly thought of the difficult days that Fu Lang accompanied him through when he was suffering, and he felt the same for Zhou Jing and the two.

"You don't need to worry about this husband. I understand it. This is your boss who loves you and wants to compensate you for the hardships you have suffered over the years. Since your boss has this kind of thought, you should accept it. I will be the shopkeeper. Add a blessing to you two, I wish you more and more prosperous life, this snowflake noodles counts as your eighteen characters, what do you think?"

Shen Mo smiled and said: "Thank you shopkeeper, I will definitely come to you to buy rice noodles if I need them at home."

The shopkeeper was just moved for a moment and didn't ask for anything else.In his heart, the peasant family has land in their own home, and the grain they grow every year is enough for their own family to eat, so how could they be willing to buy it.

But the shopkeeper still said: "Thank you husband, as long as you come, I will definitely give you a cheaper price."

"Give me [-] catties of snowflake noodles, and give me [-] catties of the one next to you. By the way, you have cornmeal here, and it needs to be fine. Give me [-] catties."

Facing Shen Mo's suspicious gaze, Zhou Jing explained: "Fine cornmeal is also delicious when cooked, and eating more coarse grains is good for your health. However, you don't need to eat more coarse grains, your main task now is to nourish your body Let’s talk about eating more carefully and nourishing the body.”

The price of coarse grains in later generations was once higher than that of white flour. From the perspective of health preservation, coarse grains have high nutritional value.However, this article is actually more suitable for people who eat too much fish and meat in their offspring.For people like Shen Mo and Lin Lin who lack nutrition all year round, fine white flour and white rice are more nourishing.

There was not much oil and rice at home, and Zhou Jing sold another two hundred catties of round-grained rice.I used to buy in small quantities, and I didn't dare to buy so many at once, for fear of attracting people's attention.

But now the news of his business has spread throughout the village, and everyone knows about it.He had just taught those dishonest relatives a lesson, so he should be able to be honest for a while.The life at home will definitely get better and better, and we can't keep hiding it just because others are hot-eyed.

Zhou Jing said to Shen Mo: "It's better to change all the bowls used at home than before."

"That's good." Shen Mo also knew this truth. In the past, Mrs. Wang might have come to his house to snatch it because the days were getting better.Now that Zhou Jing is supporting the family, all firewood wolves, tigers and leopards seem to have become paper tigers. Zhou Jing has a way to deal with it, so Shen Mo is not willing to hide the good life at home anymore.I've been poor for a long time, and I'm holding my breath.

They bought bowls and chopsticks in the town. There were only three people in the family, so Shen Mo bought three ceramic bowls, a ceramic plate, and a few pots cruelly.After all, chopsticks and spoons were not willing to buy ceramics, so I chose wood.

Zhou Jing bought some other foods such as sugar and honey, various pastries and snacks.They actually piled up a hill on the mule cart, and it was obvious from a glance that they had bought a lot of things.

When Zhou Jing's mule cart drove into the village and carried everything into the gate of the Zhou family, those rumors about the Zhou family's downfall were self-defeating.Zhou Jing's Lu Cai was like cold water dripping into hot oil, and it exploded in the village instantly.The people in the village suddenly discovered that the Zhou family had developed silently without knowing when.Even if there is no land, there is no shortage of food.

"Brother Jing, why did we make the dumplings?" The Zhou family remained unmoved by the rumors outside, and only focused on living their own small life.

Zhou Jinggang taught Shen Mo how to knead the dough, and the snow-white dough was kneaded in Shen Mo's hands, and the kneading became more and more chewy.Just looking at the white noodles, Shen Lin felt that dumplings must be delicious.

"Let's pack a meat and three delicacies, and a mushroom meat."

"Two types of traps?"

"Yes. Since it's your New Year's Eve dinner, it can't be simple. Not only do you need two kinds of dumpling fillings, but I also plan to cook a few dishes. How about an omelet, a piece of sugared peanuts, and a piece of fried pork with lettuce?" Zhou Jing asked. .

"It's very good. Many people eat like this during Chinese New Year."

Zhou Jingdao: "Our family's Chinese New Year will definitely not be so simple. I didn't cook so many meat dishes because we mainly want to eat dumplings. If there are too many meat dishes, they will be ruined if they can't be eaten."

Zhou Jing is good at pulling stepson, rolling cakes, and making meat traps, and the dough cakes he rolls out are round and thin.Shen Mo should have just learned it, and the dough cakes just now still have some edges and corners that are not round.

"Little Mo, there is a saying in my hometown that in a family, the one who rolls out the round cakes can be the head of the family."

Shen Mo asked strangely: "Aren't they all headed by men?"

Zhou Jing shook his head and said, "We don't have such a saying there, so in order to fight for the right to be the head of the family, we use all kinds of tricks."

"Oh." Shen Mo seemed to agree flatly, but in fact, he was secretly stubborn, and he had to roll the dough until it was round.

Shen Mo rolled out a round one, and proudly showed it off to Zhou Jing.

Zhou Jing deliberately teased him, "You have always been the head of our family, why are you holding your breath and insisting on rolling it into a circle?"

The two were arguing, when the door was knocked suddenly, Zhou Jing and Shen Mo looked at each other.

"Who will it be at this time? It won't be another company that has signed a contract with us to come and look for trouble?"

Zhou Jing shook his head.

"No, many people in the village saw our family's big and small bags today, so they should understand that our family's life is not ruined, and they still rely on our family to make money, so they won't rush to make trouble."

"Could it be Mrs. Wang?"

"Not to mention her. Although I don't know what method Wang Ren used to get the ten taels of silver out of Mrs. Wang's hands, but it has taught her a big lesson, so I shouldn't dare to come up with it in a short time."

After much deliberation, he couldn't guess who it was, so Zhou Jing went out to answer the door.

"Master Zhou, are you home?" A high-pitched, sharp female voice came from outside the door. The voice was very strange, not like a villager.

Zhou Jing asked, "Who?"

The woman replied: "I'm here to announce the good news. The head of Zhou's family should open the door quickly."

The door opened, and a woman in a red dress stood outside.She combed a bun behind her head, and inserted two bright red and pink flowers into the bun.Just because of this image, Zhou Jing inexplicably feels like a matchmaker.

The woman covered her mouth and giggled, "Master Zhou, I'm Matchmaker Li from the neighboring village. When I arrive, it means that your family will have a happy event. I'm here to announce the good news to you."

What a matchmaker.

"Zhou Jing's family is so happy and silly, why don't you invite me in, so I can explain in detail." Li Matchmaker said that she didn't need to be invited, and she walked in with her own feet.

"Wait!" Shen Mo said cautiously, "Are you here to say kiss to Shen Lin?" Or to Zhou Jing?

Matchmaker Li lifted the veil and lightly threw it on Shen Mo's face.

"You are a jealous little husband, so I naturally want to say kiss to Shen Lin. You can inquire about the reputation of my matchmaker Li, it is very good. The reason why I have such a good reputation is because I matchmaker Li never Tell people that you are small, and don't do the immoral thing that breaks up the marriage of young couples."

Shen Mo said with a sigh of relief: "Hurry up, please come in." Only then did he realize that he was happy that someone from his family, Shen Lin, also came to propose marriage.

Shen Mo and the others just came back from the town. They were worried that the trial sale would not be good for the two meals in the morning and lunch, so they made dumplings regardless of the time when they came back.

But the people in the village are idle at this time, gathering together to chat with nothing to do.This week, the Zhou family just bought a mule cart, and the freshness has not yet passed. Someone came to the door to say that they kissed, and the person who said the kiss turned out to be Shen Lin.

"I thought Matchmaker Li was here to say goodbye to Zhou Jing. After all, the Zhou family is now living a prosperous life. Who in our village can eat meat every day, but Zhou Jing's business is pork. If you think about it, it’s always okay to eat meat every now and then. Just for that, how many poor families are willing to marry their girls.”

The other said: "I also thought it was for Zhou Jing. After all, Shen Mo has been married for three years and has nothing. Zhou Jing always wants to leave an incense, and Shen Mo, as a twin, has never had a baby." Okay, don't talk about whether to have a child, but whether you can have a child or not. In this way, it is only natural for Zhou Jing to raise another house, as long as he can afford it. Unexpectedly, it is not, but it is about Shen Lin. Is it Zhou Jing? The family life is getting better, and there are people who dare to take both twins."

Wang Ren went out for a walk, he didn't see the matchmaker going to Zhou's house, but he just heard this and stopped immediately.

"What are you talking about? Someone went to Zhou's house to propose a marriage, and you want to say Shen Lin?" Wang Ren asked nervously.

The man nodded and said, "That's right, I'm here to say goodbye to Shen Lin. You also think it's incredible, don't you, I think so too, everyone thinks it's for Zhou Jing... Hey, Wang Ren, I haven't said anything yet After that, why are you running, the dog is kicked out, running so fast?"

Wang Renfei also ran towards the house

Matchmaker Li was invited into Zhou's house and walked all the way to the house, talking all the way.

"Hey, this big yard is not ruined. Hey, this big house is so magnificent, I'm going to the town. Hey, this house is so exquisite, this furniture is so beautiful, I haven't seen the style But, this is a lot of money, right?" Matchmaker Li was babbling and thinking secretly, no wonder people who value incense as old lady Shen are willing to bow their heads and ask to marry a Shuang'er, it turns out that it is because the Zhou family is so rich and powerful.

Zhou Jing led her directly to the living room, and the bright and bright floor-to-ceiling windows almost blinded Matchmaker Li's eyes.It's not that no one in the village has thought of such a design to brighten the living room, but this design is not feasible.It's nice in summer, cool and bright, but in winter, how much firewood is needed to survive the winter.Originally, every household had the hardest time in winter, and tried every means to keep warm, so no one wanted to build a house with such floor-to-ceiling windows.

Inviting Matchmaker Li to sit on the chair, Shen Mo made tea for Matchmaker Li.Tea has a special status in the farmhouse. It is not only a symbol of the owner's financial resources but also the importance of the guests.Generally, tea is served only when distinguished guests come to the door, and a few pastries and snacks bought in the town are added.

Shen Mo felt that Shen Lin's marriage was the top priority, so Matchmaker Li would be considered a valuable guest.

Matchmaker Li didn't expect to be able to drink tea this time, she was taken aback, and at the same time realized again that the Zhou family is really rich now.

She couldn't taste the goodness after taking a sip, she just felt the fragrance was tangy and refreshing, and she ate three pieces of cakes in a row before she stopped talking.

"Thank you, good tea." The eyes of a matchmaker are sharp, and she saw something on Shen Mo's cuff at a glance. It was white, and it looked like white flour.But white noodles are expensive, and some families in the town can't afford it, let alone a country family.And as far as Matchmaker Li knew, the Zhou family didn't have any land yet, and white noodles were so expensive, how could they be willing to buy them.

But she still had to speak with gold, so she said, "I'm making white flour at home, and your cuffs are all glued."

Unexpectedly, Shen Mo brushed off his cuffs with a flat expression, and said indifferently as if talking about coarse grains: "Accidentally stuck on, home made white flour dumplings, Aunt Li will stay and eat some later."

Matchmaker Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Is it a meat trap?"

Shen Mo said: "There are two kinds of meat and mushroom meat."

Matchmaker Li was shocked and speechless. She didn't expect that Zhou's family would eat white noodle dumplings, which were made of two kinds of meat. What kind of life is this? How dare you eat like this?And judging by what Shen Mo meant, it seemed to be very normal.

Matchmaker Li's family doesn't eat meat every now and then. It's been several months since the last time they ate meat, and they get hungry when they hear meat.He hurriedly said: "I still eat these dumplings during the Chinese New Year, but Zhou Jing's family invited me sincerely, so I will not be polite."
