C319 Door
Li Qingling thought about it and said it was of course, true.
Hearing Li Qingling's reply, Li Qingning cheered and jumped into Li Qingling's embrace, "Thank you big sister." Finally, he no longer had to stay at home all day to play.
Li Qingling facepalmed Li Qingning's head in amusement, telling her to obediently follow Rou Rou to train in the [Female Red]. She would bring up the mountain as soon as possible to play with his.
In order to go up the mountain to play, when Li Qingning heard about making her practice the Lil 'Red she hated, she did not have any resistance anymore.
As long as he could get her to play on the mountain, nothing else mattered.
Glancing at the excited little guy, a glint flashed across Li Qingling's eyes. She had a way to treat this little guy.
It was a pity that a certain little fellow was looking forward to it and didn't know that her elder sister had set her up.
"Madam, what should we do with the deer?" The guards looked at the deer on the ground with envy. They almost drooled at the thought of all kinds of methods to eat the deer meat.
Li Qingling looked at the deer, then dissected the guards and gave the four meat legs to Tiger. He then took the rest to the kitchen to do it himself.
When the guards heard that Li Qingling had gone to cook, they swallowed their saliva even faster. One must know that Li Qingling's culinary skills were very good.
"Alright, I guarantee that I will be able to complete the mission." The guards carried the deer away and prepared to dissect it in the kitchen. They could not let the ladies see such a bloody side of it.
Li Qingling let them go, they will call for her once they are done.
She ran over the venison in her mind and promised they'd have a good meal.
However, they would have to bear the consequences themselves. Deer meat was a great tonic, and once eaten too much ..
She had to remind Liu Zhimo to not eat so much, and he should be careful not to get burnt.
"Madam, a lady who claims to be Magistrate Ma has come to find you." Nian Xia rushed over and said respectfully to Li Qingling, "I've arranged for her to wait in the parlour."
Hearing that, Li Qingling raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and looked at his dressing, feeling that he did not need to specifically change his clothes, he brought Nian Xia to the Flower Hall.
As soon as she went to the parlour, she saw a woman dressed in light green carrying a tea cup.
When the woman saw Li Qingling, she immediately put down the teacup, stood up and laughed, "I presume you are our Magistrate's Wife?" Younger than she'd expected, and wondering if she'd made it.
Li Qingling smiled, "May I ask who you are?"
"My master is a county magistrate who follows his lordship, I am his wife, Hu Juanjuan."
Thinking about Magistrate Ma's thin and short body, then looking at the tall Hu Juanjuan in front of him, the corner of Li Qingling's mouth involuntarily twitched.
"Mrs. Hu, please sit."
Hu Juanjuan said as she casually waved her hands. Don't call me Mrs. Hu, just call me Jun Juan!
In front of Magistrate's Wife, how could she dare call himself his wife?
After Li Qingling heard what she said, the corner of his mouth twitched. He did not follow her words, or should he call her Mrs. Hu, asking her what's the matter?
Seeing that Li Qingling insisted, Hu Juanjuan did not hesitate anymore. Smiling, she brought the basket over, and handed it over to Li Qingling, and said embarrassedly, "This is our family's garden's vegetables, let me gift it to you, Madam, for a taste." Since his family was poor, she could only send some dishes grown by his family, otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to afford it.
I hope Magistrate's Wife doesn't mind.
Li Qingling took the basket that Hu Juanjuan passed to him, and looked down it. There were green melons, vegetable hearts, eggplant and tomatoes, they were all fresh and fresh.
She raised her head and smiled at Hu Juanjuan, and said: "Thank you so much, I just happened to deliver it in time, our family is short on dishes." There was no way Magistrate Ma's wife wouldn't accept it after sending it all out. Furthermore, this dish did look very good.
Hearing Li Qingling's words, Hu Juanjuan's tensed heart relaxed. She could tell that Li Qingling was not fawning on her, but was truly happy to receive the dishes that she sent over.
From the looks of it, this Magistrate's Wife was not the type of person who despised people, he was a person who was easy to get along with.
It was unlike the previous Magistrate's Wife who used his nose to look at others.
However, he still had to get along with him slowly before he could come to a conclusion.
Li Qingling handed the vegetable basket over to Nian Xia and asked her to bring it over to the kitchen. She sat on the chair by the side and looked at Hu Juanjuan and said, "I wonder what kind of vegetables are suitable for growing here? I'm going to grow some food in the yard in a few days. " Since the yard was so large, it was a pity to use it to grow flowers and plants. She really did plan to open up a few fields to grow some fruits and vegetables.
Hearing that, Hu Juanjuan was shocked, she looked at Li Qingling in shock, Magistrate's Wife wanted to grow vegetables?
This .. Is this true? Could it be a joke?
"Ma'am, are you serious?"
Li Qingling nodded his head heavily, "The dishes you grow yourself are better than the ones you buy, and you can save a lot of money, right?" Besides, he could also make those kids work, so they wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
Why didn't she do the killing of two birds with one stone?
He looked at Li Qingling seriously. Seeing that Li Qingling was not joking, Hu Juanjuan added points to his heart, feeling that Li Qingling was the type of person who worked hard and hard to maintain his family.
She asked the question.
Hearing that, Li Qingling smiled, and said that the old master was rather supportive of her growing vegetables at home, he would even personally grow them when he was free.
"Really? County Magistrate can grow vegetables too? " Hu Juanjuan's mouth was opened so wide as if he had heard some big news. He had heard the old master say that the County Magistrate was not some top scholar? He also knew how to plant vegetables on the ground. This was truly unbelievable.
"Our family lives in the village, how can he not know how to grow vegetables?"
Hu Juanjuan scratched her head and laughed, "I thought that County Magistrate did not need to go down to the ground. Her heart was set ablaze. Would such a County Magistrate lead them to a better life?
"How could that be? If he does not go to work in the fields, how can he experience the hardships of the people? " Li Qingling shook his head and said, "Our children have been following us since young. My master said that we have to eat if we don't work, our family does not support people who eat for free."
Hu Juanjuan looked at Li Qingling with a bit of envy. Although her master was doing fine, he didn't really care about his family's matters. She felt that since the master had worked hard outside, he should rest more at home.
But hearing Li Qingling say this, he instantly felt that a man like the County Magistrate would cherish him even more.
She pinched her fingers and said smilingly, why does County Magistrate have to do this sort of thing? Aren't there servants in the house?
Li Qingling glanced at Hu Juanjuan, and knew that she was serious about this matter, she laughed: "There aren't many servants in the family, so each of us is compatible with one person. Usually, when we help others, we do most of the things ourselves." Pausing, she saw Hu Juanjuan's shocked expression, she secretly laughed, "My master said that if you were to lower yourself to such a level, you must first have a bitter heart, work hard on your bones, starve your flesh and blood, and leave your body empty .. Only in this way can you become a useful person. "
Hu Juanjuan nodded her head thoughtfully. She felt that the County Magistrate's words made a lot of sense. When she returned home, she would also have to change her education for her children.
When the old master returns at night, he would like to talk to him about the County Magistrate to let him know what is going on.
The County Magistrate was such a wise person, he would definitely do things for the people.
Li Qingling stopped when he was about to speak, she raised his teacup and slowly drank a mouthful of tea, changing the topic without anyone noticing.
This time, overall, they were very happy when they met. When Hu Juanjuan wanted to return home, Li Qingling had someone bring a box of dim sum and three pounds of venison over to Hu Juanjuan.
This dessert was cooked by my family's maidservant. Her cooking skills are quite good, you take it back and let the children have a taste. Also, my family's guard accidentally hunted this venison.
Hu Juanjuan did not stand on ceremony with Li Qingling, she smiled and received the snacks and venison from him, "Then thank you Madam, I'll send the vegetable seed over to you when I have time tomorrow." Their family hadn't eaten meat in a while. This venison could be added to the children's dishes.
"Alright, then I'll be troubling you."
"Not at all, not at all. I'll be leaving first."
"Alright, take care." Li Qingling smiled and nodded, "Nian Xia, help me send Mrs. Hu out."
Nian Xia took a step forward, "Mrs. Hu, this way please."
Hu Juanjuan nodded to Li Qingling smilingly and followed him out.
Li Qingling returned back to his chair and not long after, Nian Xia returned. She smiled and told Li Qingling that Mrs. Hu looked like a straightforward person.
Li Qingling poured a cup of tea for himself, and then drank two more mouthfuls before he laughed and said, "Not only did one not lose his sense of shrewdness, but it seems that you are still someone worth befriending."
However, seeing people's hearts after a long time, they had to get along for a long time before coming to a conclusion.
"Indeed."
Li Qingling drank a cup of tea and put down the teacup. He stood up and patted her skirt and then waved his hand boldly saying, "Come, let's go to the kitchen to make some delicious food. I think they have been waiting for a long time."
Hearing that there was food to eat, Nian Xia swallowed her saliva.
That night, after Liu Zhimo returned, he told him what had happened today.
Liu Zhimo muttered to himself for a while before replying, "I can observe for a bit, but if I feel that it's worth interacting with, I can let her come visit me at home more often." After all, he had to work together with Magistrate Ma for a few years.
Don't underestimate the relationship between the ladies. It can affect the work in front of them.
Li Qingling nodded, that was her plan as well. If Hu Juanjuan was a kind and evil person, she definitely would not let her be at ease.
Liu Zhimo reached out his hands to pacify her wrinkled eyebrows, then asked her with a smile, "Today, was she going to cook for me?"
He hadn't eaten the food she cooked in a while and missed it a lot.
