Small green grass falling from the sky

Chapter 13 Freezing Rain...

【wearing a green hat】

The cold wave is really here.

Su Li was woken up by the sound of rain outside the window, and felt a clammy chill as soon as he got out of the quilt.

The flower stand was empty, and the ears were unusually quiet, and the little flower spirits were probably frozen back to their bodies.

After Su Li took care of herself, she went to Su Xiaohu's Westinghouse.Mr. Xiao Lang has already got up, and is stretching out the newly made clothes, looking left and right.

"Do you like it?" Su Li asked with a smile.

"En." Su Xiaohu nodded honestly.

After breakfast, Su Xiaohu dressed in new clothes and ran to Chuguagua.

Su Li walked around her flower shed and satisfied all the requirements of the flower spirits, big and small, before leaving the house.

The thin rain was falling densely, Su Li raised his sleeves and walked quickly, but unexpectedly his feet slipped and he almost fell down.

He looked down and was surprised to find that a layer of ice had formed on the compacted dirt road.

It's raining and the ground is freezing. What kind of weather is this?

Su Li's heart was clouded with suspicion, he leaned on the wall, and cautiously entered the yard of Uncle Huai's house.

Uncle Huai and Granny Huai were both working in the flower shed, and Li Gui's family was also there. The two families were wrapping soft hay on the delicate flower branches.

"Is this useful?" Su Li humbly asked for advice.

"It can be very useful." Uncle Li said with a smile, "Everyone does the same in the usual year, and [-]% of the flowers and trees can survive."

Su Li pursed his lips, he used charcoal at home, it was given to Su Xiaohu by Chu Gua, if it wasn't for the little flower spirits arguing to let him light it, Su Li wouldn't have known about it.

It's just that it's hard to say that, obviously he is very close to Chu Jing.

Su Li smiled as if covering up, and asked instead: "Has there been such weather in previous years?"

"It's often cold in the late spring, but it's rare when it's so severe." Uncle Li looked at Uncle Huai, "The year of freezing rain like this only happened once in the year when the pillar was born?"

"That's not true." Granny Huai continued, "If he didn't slip on the ice when he went out, maybe he would have to stay in the stomach for a few more days."

As soon as the words came out, everyone laughed.

Su Li grasped an unfamiliar word - freezing rain.

It turned out that this is called freezing rain.

The atmosphere in the flower shed was quite relaxed. Although there was a disaster this year, fortunately the precious flowers and trees were sold in advance, and the rest would not suffer much loss if they were taken care of carefully.

Li Gui shook his head and said, "What are you talking about that Chu County King? He hurriedly urged everyone to sell flowers. This is a good time, it's all in your hands!"

Aunt Li chuckled, and said in a low voice: "This person may have planned to buy it in advance, to lower the price, but he didn't think about it, but put the charcoal money in!"

"That's what it is called, people are not as good as heaven!" Uncle Huai shook his head and sighed.

Su Li clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, and he faintly felt that this was not the case.

For some reason, he felt more and more that Chu Jing was not the kind of person who was only interested in profit - although that perverted look was still annoying.

At this moment, the Huai and Li families were chatting and laughing, but the atmosphere in the nearby flower shed was not so relaxed.

Liu Er and Ge San were worrying about a shed of limp flowers when they suddenly heard laughter from the next door, wishing they could stare at a hole in the thick partition.

Ge San scratched his teeth, and said bitterly: "Second brother, do you think those families have obtained some secret recipe, why did they raise the flowers suddenly and sell them in advance?"

Liu Er sneered, "Isn't it just the secret recipe!"

Ge San paused, and immediately widened his eyes, "What secret recipe?"

"Flower fertilizer recipe!" Liu Er gritted his teeth, and said bitterly, "My big girl got it from Huai's little girl, Huai Zhu is at home every day making flower fertilizer, and the recipe is given by Su!"

Ge Sanyi patted his thigh, "Second Brother, why didn't you say something about such a big deal earlier?"

"What's the use of saying it earlier, can you still steal it?"

As soon as these words came out, both of them were stunned.

Steal it?Why not!

Liu Er and Ge San looked at each other, and both had vicious thoughts at the same time—don't worry about stealing, cheating, or robbing, they will definitely get this recipe!

When Su Li came out of Huai Bo's house, the rain had stopped, but the ice on the ground hadn't melted.

As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he heard the laughter of children.

"Ah~ Xiaohu—slow down, slow down!" Chu Guagua yelled loudly, with excitement and panic mixed in Nuo Nuo's voice.

"Quack, don't be afraid, come quickly this time!" Su Xiaohu shouted with a smile.

"Ah~ I'm scared~~~~" Chuguagua responded with a trembling voice.

Su Li was slightly surprised, it was the first time he heard Chu Guagua speak so loudly after living together for a month.

He turned out of the door opening and looked curiously towards the entrance of the alley.

On the slippery ice, Su Xiaohu was running forward with his body bent, with a long hemp rope attached to his back.

A strange looking wooden chair was tied to the other end of the rope - the armrests and the back of the chair were in a circle, there were no legs underneath, only a thick and long chair surface, with the front and rear ends slightly raised - at this time, Chuguagua Face sits on it in horror.

Su Xiaohu pulled with a "swish", and when he passed by Su Li, he only grinned and called "Daddy", and then ran over without stopping.

When they reached the west side, the panic on Chu Guagua's face immediately turned into excitement.He jumped down from the wooden chair with his little hands raised, and shouted in a shrill voice, "It's my turn! It's my turn!"

Su Xiaohu nodded and sat down on the chair with a smile.

Chu Gua Gua put the rope on his shoulders, and pulled it up with a bang——if Su Xiaohu's speed was that of a "tiger", Chu Gua Gua's speed was about the same as that of a little jumping frog.

However, Chu Guagua himself was very happy, Su Xiaohu didn't rush him, but slid his feet on the ground, silently helping him.

Su Li had never experienced such a childhood, he just stared blankly like that, and stood there for a long time unconsciously.

There were seven or eight girls from the Chu family, all of whom were young and handsome.

Dongqing ran at the front, shouting happily, "Xiao Lang, I'll help you!"

Wearing a flowered jacket and thick-soled embroidered shoes, Dongmei hurriedly chased after her, "I'll come, I'll come first!"

The other three maids were a little older and more stable after all, standing by the door with only smiles on their faces.

There were also two young gentlemen in military uniform, who looked like guards, leaning on the doorpost with folded hands, looking very leisurely.

Su Li paused, took the initiative to walk over, and bowed to several people, describing neither humble nor overbearing, "May I ask, is His Royal Highness the Prince in the mansion?"

Xia He stood closest and glanced at him, but said nothing.

Yunshan cleared her throat, and just about to answer, Yingchun said with a smile: "My master has gone to Fan Lou, if you have something to do, I can ask someone to find the master and come back."

"Thank you, lady, I have nothing to do." Su Li held the hand again, smiled slightly, and walked back to his yard unhurriedly.

Xia He gave Yingchun a white look, and said angrily: "Why, if he said something happened, would you really ask someone to go to the master?"

Yingchun didn't want to argue with her, so she replied flatly, "It's just a polite word."

Xia He cut out, "Only you will be a good person!"

Yingchun squeezed the handkerchief in her hand, but didn't reply.

Qiutang poked Xia He's forehead, and said jokingly: "You are narrow-minded, didn't they just not sell Wanlian to you, as for you remember it until now?"

Xia He curled her lips, and replied meanly: "It's just a villain who pushes high and tramples low, I can't do it!"

Qiutang shook her head and smiled, saying no more.

Yunshan and Yuliu looked at each other and shrugged helplessly.

Yingchun's gaze was always on Chu Gugua, and there was neither anger nor joy between her brows, as if the irony in Xia He's words had nothing to do with her.

Chu Jing was unaware of the minor conflicts among the servants at home. At this time, he was sitting in a box on the "first floor of the capital", eating hot mutton pot, listening to Bai Cong talking about the past two days in a flat tone. How much silver did you earn.

Chu Jing poked the table with his chopsticks, and hummed dissatisfiedly, "I said, Lao Bai, it's a good thing to make money. Can you be a little happier?"

Bai Cong drooped his eyelids, and said expressionlessly: "This subordinate is just a servant, so he has no right to be happy."

"I said you—why are you so small-minded?" Chu Jing picked up a big lump of mutton and threw it into his bowl angrily.

"The subordinate is just a subordinate, so he has no right to be small-minded."

"All right, all right, I was wrong." Chu Jing clasped his hands together, "I promise, if there is any plan next time, I will definitely discuss it with you in advance, is it done, Mr. Bai?"

Only then did Bai Cong lift his eyelids, and a pair of brown eyes looked straight at him, "Your Highness promise?"

"Guarantee, guarantee!" Chu Jing nodded hurriedly, stuffed a large piece of taro into his mouth, and said vaguely, "I'm not afraid that you will feel uncomfortable when you think about the past!"

Bai Cong tightened his grip on the chopsticks, and said flatly, "It's long gone."

Chu Jing glanced at him, "Don't worry, we don't care about those people who cheated you before. These sheep were all bought from ordinary herdsmen. I don't need to say, Mo Zhu will take care of this matter!"

"I know." Bai Cong pursed his lips, and felt a burst of pleasure—God has a good eye, and let those cold-hearted beasts taste what it feels like to be called out every day, and to be called out of order!

Fanlou is located in the middle of Yujie Street, next to Tokyo Wharf. Even the emperor didn't know that this century-old restaurant became Chu Jing's property three years ago.

In the past three years, Chu Jing introduced new dishes from time to time in combination with the modern management model, and suddenly helped a restaurant that was in decline to the throne of "the first floor of the capital".

Although the cold wave is a disaster, it is also a great business opportunity if it is used well.

Chu Jing bought cows and sheep that were about to die of freezing and starvation from the herdsmen who were hit by the disaster in the northwest. This not only helped them reduce their burden, but also made a fortune in the Central Plains. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

After all, no matter how great a disaster is, it can't stop the rich from enjoying life, and there are many rich people in Bianjing, the capital of Chu.

As soon as Fanlou's beef and mutton hot pot was launched, it immediately attracted countless diners to flock to it - in such a humid and cold weather, it would be a pity not to eat a hot pot in this cold spring!

The female relatives who were inconvenient to show their faces invited Fan Lou's master to do it at home. As a result, Fan Lou, whose business was already booming, made a lot of money again.

As for Hua Zhuang's loss...compared with Fan Lou's profit, it's just a drop in the bucket.

Chu Jing drank some wine and counted the money with a smile - he knew that everyone in Bianjing was laughing at him, so go ahead and laugh, anyway, there will be no loss of meat.

Earn some money and abduct a tender little man and wife, this is what a man should do!

Speaking of tenderness... The slightly drunk His Royal Highness could not help but think of Su Li—that pair of eyes that seem to be able to talk, so beautiful!

So, Chu Jing carried the mutton and the bottom of the pot, and wandered into the small courtyard of the Su family.

At that time, Su Li was sitting in the flower shed and drying his half-dried hair.

The little flower spirits grabbed his collar, scratched his ears, and grabbed his cloth scarf, laughing and playing tricks.

For Chu Jing's uninvited behavior, Su Li expressed his contempt with a fierce stare.

The look of staring at people is also pretty... His Royal Highness raised the corners of his mouth and smiled like a villain.

Su Li sniffled, "Have you been drinking?"

Chu Jing shook his head resolutely, "That little wine is not called drinking at all, it's just tasted." After saying that, he touched Su Li's hair, "I'll wipe it for you."

Sure enough, he was drunk.

Su Li avoided his hand and helped him onto the wooden pier, "Take a break, I'll get you a bowl of water."

"Wait." Chu Jing grabbed his hand, squinted his eyes and pointed at the top of his head, "What is that?"

The little flower spirit above her head froze, her face full of horror.

Su Li also froze, touched her head guiltily, grabbed the little green flower spirit, and hid it quietly behind her back.The other little guys also hurriedly hid.

Chu Jing chuckled, "A green light, I thought it was...a green hat, hahaha!"

Su Li was speechless—who was the green hat for?Childish!

The author has something to say: Hahahaha... hiccup~
