I open a convenience store in the tribe

Mingyuan's craftsmanship is undoubtedly very good.

The sticky porridge is paired with tender beef and ginger. It tastes extremely delicious. One bite of the hot beef porridge is full of enjoyment for both the stomach and the heart.

Even Xu Xi, who doesn't like to drink porridge very much, ate several mouthfuls in a row. Coupled with the braised long-eared animal meat that Mingyuan specially made for Xu Xi, it was even more delicious. Xu Xi would eat it with his tongue .

The beef porridge is light and delicious, and the braised long-eared animal meat is rich in salty flavor, fat but not greasy. The combination of the two is undoubtedly very suitable.This is really the most delicious and happiest meal Xu Xi has had since coming here.

While watching Xu Xi eat so contentedly, Mingyuan felt his whole heart was filled.Xu Mingyuan's eyes were too hot, Xu Xi, who had been buried in hard work, was finally willing to look up at Mingyuan.

He smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Why don't you eat it? Your craftsmanship is really good, and it's not at the same level as mine. Don't patronize me, and eat more while it's hot."

Mingyuan never knew that watching someone eat the food he cooked with his own hands could be so wonderful.My heart is full, so it doesn't matter if I eat or not.

Mingyuan smiled and stretched out his hand to wipe off the sauce that was accidentally stuck on the corner of Xu Xi's mouth, and his fingers inevitably brushed Xu Xi's lips.Feeling the soft touch from his fingertips, Ming Yuan's eyes darkened slightly, but he quickly said to Xu Xi as if nothing happened.

"As long as you like it, I can make it for you every day in the future."

Mingyuan's attitude was too taken for granted, as if Xu Xi felt that Mingyuan's actions just now were teasing him, but there was no evidence. The ambiguous atmosphere just now seemed to be an illusion that never happened at all.Being teased so that her heart beat faster and her ears were red, Xu Xi secretly despised herself who became like an innocent little boy every time she met Ming Yuan.

Xu Xi, who was always teased and couldn't tease Ming Yuan, had no choice but to bury his head in bitterness angrily.While eating, Xu Xi secretly thought it was over. Before the heart fell, the stomach seemed to be conquered first.

No wonder people often say that if you want to grab a person's heart, you must first grab his stomach.In the past, Xu Xi only felt that he sneered, but now, Xu Xi felt that these words seemed to be unreasonable.

Because the lunch was so delicious, Xu Xi ate three big bowls of porridge in a row, until he couldn't eat any more, so he reluctantly put down the spoon.

Mingyuan was naturally happy so that Xu Xi could eat more, anyway porridge was easy to digest, so he wasn't afraid to spoil Xu Xi.After Xu Xi was full, Ming Yuan hurriedly finished his lunch.

In fact, Xu Xi's hands are not that serious, it's just that yesterday's mechanical unpacking of too many bags made his hands feel sore and weak and trembling slightly in the morning.At this point, apart from a little discomfort, there is actually nothing serious.

But Ming Yuan obviously didn't think so, he took Xu Xi's hand with an irresistible gesture, rubbed Xu Xi's hand with a moderate force after applying the pungent medicinal wine.

If you ignore the pungent smell, this feeling is quite comfortable.With moderate strength, he rubbed his overworked hands with the medicinal wine.

With the massage, the soothing feeling brought by the medicinal wine permeating into the skin still gave off a warm feeling, Xu Xi couldn't help squinting his eyes to enjoy the comfort.

Xu Xi fell asleep before he knew it, and when he woke up, he found himself lying on the bed. Xu Xi didn't want to think about how he went back to the room and lay on the bed.

Whether it was being carried, carried or hugged, it was too embarrassing, Xu Xi didn't even want to think about it, and directly deleted this matter from his mind.

It's just that when he came to the yard and saw Ming Yuan who was busy planting something with his back facing him, Xu Xi still felt a little embarrassed in his heart. He touched his nose in a concealed manner before walking slowly to Ming Yuan. far ahead.

"What are you planting?"

"I just saw you fell asleep, so I went to dig some ground fruits and cold-dispelling fruits and planted them. Although the survival rate is not high, if you take good care of it, you can still grow some."

The winter of the Orcs is very cold and harsh, and the wilderness is more dangerous than usual.Generally, before winter, the orcs will make preparations for the winter, and all the orcs don't go out very much in winter, so as not to be in danger.

Although it's not autumn yet, Mingyuan still wants to take advantage of this time to plant more necessary herbs, wild vegetables and other things in Xu Xi's yard, so that he doesn't have to go out to look for them in winter.

Although Xu Xi didn't understand these things, he believed that Ming Yuan would not just ignore them like this. If the two of them took care of them together, Xu Xi was still confident that they could grow well.Planting rice crackers, ginger, and garlic in the yard is also very convenient, but the only pity is that the onion has not been found yet.

"How is your hand, does it still hurt?"

Mingyuan didn't say that Xu Xi had forgotten about it, he smiled and turned his wrist.

"It's been gone for a long time. Your medicinal wine is very effective. Of course, your craftsmanship is also very good. I fell asleep so comfortably."

Seeing Xu Xi's calm expression, Ming Yuan was relieved that his hands would no longer tremble, and it was not in vain that he continued to massage with medicine and wine for a long time after Xu Xi fell asleep.

After helping Mingyuan plant the remaining garlic and ginger, and seeing the rice crackers, ginger and garlic slowly being planted in the originally empty yard, Xu Xi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "If I plant more vegetables, then A few fruit trees would be more perfect."

Since Xu Xi wanted it, Ming Yuan kept it in mind.I was thinking about going hunting tomorrow morning to see if I could find some more healthy wild vegetables and fruits to plant.

While Mingyuan was cooking, Xu Xi came to the warehouse to continue preparing the goods for opening the store in a while.It wasn't that Xu Xi didn't want to help, it was that Ming Yuan was too straightforward by himself, Xu Xichu was not only unable to help, but was a little in the way.

Even though Mingyuan didn't dislike it, Xu Xi himself couldn't bear the fact that instead of being able to help, he made Mingyuan more troubled.Instead of doing this, Xu Xi would rather do something practical, so as not to hinder Mingyuan and add unnecessary work to Mingyuan.

Although his hands were already healed, Xu Xi still had lingering fears. He didn't want to be in a situation where he couldn't even hold the chopsticks steadily.After thinking about it for a while, Xu Xi didn't dare to spend as much money as yesterday.

He bought eight bottles of 1.9L soy sauce for only one gold dollar.

The rings on some soy sauce bottles are very easy to pull, and they can be opened with a slight pull.Some of them were glued together very tightly, and it took a lot of effort to pull them apart until the fingers were red, and because of the excessive force, some soy sauce was splashed on the hands and face.Speechless, Xu Xi spent another two copper dollars to buy a pack of tissues to wipe his hands and face.

There were only eight bottles of soy sauce in total, and soon Xu Xi poured all eight bottles of soy sauce into the water tank containing the soy sauce.After finishing it, Xu Xi thought that Mingyuan didn't finish it so quickly, so he bought some sesame oil and chili oil and put them in smaller jars.

After everything was done, although Xu Xi's hands were scratched with red marks, they were not so delicate.It's just that there is nothing wrong with his hands, but Xu Xi's heart hurts badly.

Last night and today's shopping, directly spent most of Xu Xi's savings during this period.Seeing that there were only a dozen or so silver dollars and twenty copper dollars left alone, Xu Xi felt extremely overwhelmed.

"It's really a return to before liberation. Although I still have 140 copper dollars in my hand, but after two days, brother Yuan and their oil paper bags are ready, and I have to pay them another 120 copper dollars."

After some calculations, Xu Xi sadly found that he only had 21 copper coins in his hand.In addition, during this period of time, in order to prepare for the opening of the store, he did not sell salt and sugar. That is to say, unless he waited for his new store to open, Xu Xi would have to live on twenty or so copper dollars.

Especially when he thought of needing to buy some chocolates, candies, various seasonings and other things from the convenience store, Xu Xi felt even more frustrated.These twenty or so copper dollars are not enough to make preparations, let alone buy some instant noodles, drinks and snacks to satisfy my hunger.

"It's true that when money is used, I hate it. I used to think that I could barely be considered a small rich man with about [-] copper dollars, but when I returned to the pre-liberation period, I had to tighten my belt to live."

Fortunately, Mingyuan's craftsmanship is good, and it's not too sad to be unable to eat snacks, at least to be able to eat meals made by Mingyuan himself.It's just that on the day when the store opened, Xu Xi still thought about mentioning it.

In the evening, after eating the fragrant and spicy stir-fried long-eared animal meat specially made by Mingyuan, spicy crab and extremely delicious black-bone fish soup, Xu Xi forgot all his troubles.

No matter whether he has money or not, as long as he can eat such delicious food every day, even if he doesn't have a copper dollar, Xu Xi will not regret it at all.Because his stomach was already filled with delicious meals, and there was no room for snacks and other things.

After eating and drinking enough, Xu Xi thought that the copper coins and the goods were almost ready, and now he just waited for Anyuan and the others to finish the oil paper bags and shelves.

There is nothing to do tomorrow, Xu Xi couldn't help but said to Ming Yuan, "My goods are almost ready, just wait for Brother Yuan and the others to deliver the oil paper bags and shelves."

"That means I don't have anything to do tomorrow. Otherwise, you can take me out tomorrow to see if there is anything new to bring back to the yard."

This was actually an invitation in disguise, and Xu Xi was a little worried that Mingyuan would disagree.Because the wild is no better than in the tribe, danger can be said to be everywhere, as long as you don't pay attention, accidents will easily happen.But Xu Xi didn't know why, he just blindly believed that Mingyuan was there, and it was impossible for something to happen.

Xu Xi, who was still thinking about how to persuade Mingyuan, was surprised to hear that Mingyuan simply agreed, and asked back in surprise, "You agreed?"

"Well, if you want to go out, I will take you out. It's just that you can't go to dangerous places like the depths of the stone forest and Qingxuan Mountain. I'm afraid I can't protect you."

It's not that Xu Xi is impatient with life, how could he risk his life just to satisfy his curiosity.To put it more bluntly, it's okay to die alone, but if Ming Yuan is involved, then Xu Xi will not be able to apologize even if he cuts him to pieces.

"Then it's settled. I'll meet you at the cabin tomorrow."

Saltstone Lake is very close to the Qingmu Tribe and there is no danger, and Xu Xi is so excited, Ming Yuan didn't want to spoil Xu Xi's interest, so he agreed.
