Chapter 458 Secretly Send
She was really afraid of being discovered by her family, but she would be fine as long as she turned the intersection ahead.
She would go and deliver the adults first, and then come back after that, so that her family would not know that she had been to the military defense camp.
She had never done anything bad before, and today was the first time she did it, she felt very uneasy.
It was not until she arrived at the military defense camp that she adjusted her mood and went in.
Following the soldier who led the way, Zhou Mingshu arrived outside Lord Qi's study.
The room was quiet, and if you listened carefully, you could only hear the rustling sound of papers being flipped.
"grown ups."
Zhou Mingshu came in against the sunlight, carrying a lunch box. When Qi Rui saw him, he thought it was an illusion.
"Mingshu? Why are you here?"
Qi Rui was very surprised, because when he stood up suddenly, the seat behind him made a harsh sound.
Surprised, Qi Rui hurriedly stepped forward to take the food box from Zhou Mingshu and put it on the table.
"I heard from your grandma that you were very busy in the village. I thought I had nothing to do here so I didn't bother you. What's the matter? Did you suddenly come here today because you missed me?"
"You're just being sarcastic. I made a lot of sweet water at home. There's too much to drink, so I brought some to you to avoid wasting it."
"I see. I didn't expect that I could have this function. But I like this function very much."
When Qi Rui knew there was sweet water in the food box, he couldn't wait to open it.
As soon as I saw what was inside, I knew Zhou Mingshu was lying.
This is not leftovers, it is clearly prepared carefully for him.
Qi Rui was so happy that he took out the food and started eating.
"It's really good. It's delicious."
After saying it was delicious twice in a row, he started eating it all in one gulp, which made Zhou Mingshu almost die of laughter.
He is a dignified General, but when he eats sweets, he is as cute as a kitten.
"Eat slowly. No one is going to snatch it from you. The top layer is all yours."
"Oh? There's another layer underneath? If not me, who else will you give it to?"
"The bottom layer is for Si Ya and Si Dan and the others. You are not allowed to eat it."
"Haha, so that's how it is. But why didn't you drop off a portion for them when you passed by the restaurant on the way here?"
Qi Rui asked the key point of the question right away. Zhou Mingshu avoided looking at him, not knowing how to start the conversation.
"Eat yours quickly. Even such delicious food can't stop you from eating."
The more guilty Zhou Mingshu felt, the more obvious the answer became.
Qi Rui already had the answer in his mind, "Did you come here secretly today?"
Seeing that his guess was made, Zhou Mingshu no longer kept silent and had to nod.
Qi Rui on the side laughed even more happily.
"I don't know when I can meet your family openly. You should have given me a suitable identity earlier."
Qi Rui blinked playfully.
Zhou Mingshu stretched out his finger and poked Qi Rui's forehead. "You think too much. Eat quickly. I have to go back later. My time is very precious."
Seeing her like this, Qi Rui had no choice but to finish the food in the bowl first.
He drank several bowls of sweet water in one breath and burped at the end.
“I feel so full~”
"Haha, just hold on."
Zhou Mingshu put the bowl away, covered it, and pretended to leave.
"Hey, don't go. We haven't seen each other for a while. Why don't you sit down and talk for a while?"
Qi Rui didn't dare to touch Zhou Mingshu's hand, and only grabbed the corner of his sleeve.
"I've been really busy lately. If I had free time like usual, I would definitely stay and accompany you. But no matter how busy I am, it will only be for a while. I'll be free later. Once the sweet shop opens and the staff is up and running, I'll be free."
"That's fine. I'm almost done with my work here. If you don't have time, I'll come find you. If you need any help, just come to me."
"it is good."
Qi Rui carried the food box in one hand and led the horse in the other, and sent Zhou Mingshu to the gate of the military defense camp before returning.
Zhou Mingshu rode on his horse and arrived at the restaurant after a short ride. He happened to see Si Ya and Si Dan laughing and playing at the back door.
"Third sister, why are you here? Why are you bringing a lunch box?"
"I brought you some delicious food. Look, your faces are all painted like little cats. Why don't you wash them off quickly?"
"Okay, let's go right away."
Si Ya and Si Dan quickly ran to wash their faces and hands. Zhou Mingshu brought the food box and put it on the table and started to serve the food into small bowls.
"Wash your hands and face and come over to eat."
After she finished speaking, she went into the kitchen holding a bowl of sweet water.
"Aunt, mother, please stop working and try the sweet water I made. I'm going to sell it in the sweet water shop."
"Oh, it's made so quickly, we have to try it."
Everyone rushed over with shovels and spoons in their hands, wanting to taste the sweet water.
I want to know what magic this sweet water has that is worth San Ya opening a sweet water shop to sell it.
"I think it tastes pretty good, what do you think?"
"It tastes good, it's definitely not ordinary red bean paste, Sanya, did you put something in it?"
"Aunt, you are amazing. You guessed it right away. I put sweet osmanthus honey wine and glutinous rice balls in it. Doesn't it make the taste richer and the sweetness more intense?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Now that you mention it, I know what it smells like. It's a sweet smell, much better than ordinary sweets."
After his bowl of red bean paste was praised by the elders at home, Zhou Mingshu felt more confident.
"Today is my first time trying it out. We are far away and the capacity of the food box is limited. Next time I will make more so that everyone can have enough."
A bowl of red bean paste was almost finished after each person ate two spoonfuls, and the rest was left for the two little ones.
"Okay, okay, this delicious food is definitely not enough for us adults to eat. When we have time, we can make more and eat our fill."
"These red bean paste fermented rice and osmanthus honey are both good things, especially for us women. Eating more is good for our qi and blood. We should use more in the future."
After eating, Auntie A Niang and the others started discussing the benefits of red beans. Zhou Mingshu stayed there with his empty bowl and smiled.
Isn't the current scene exactly the effect she wanted to achieve?
Seeing that everyone was caring about their health, Zhou Mingshu felt very satisfied.
She has been in Lianglin Village for a year and a half. Although she does not get overly involved in the family affairs of her neighbors, she still knows a lot about disharmonious situations through the gossip of her family members.
She opened a restaurant and planted crops, employing many people in the village so that they could have jobs and earn money, not just because she needed the labor.
She felt that if these people could effectively recognize their own value, they would not be so obsessed with trivial matters in the backyard.
With money, you can have food and clothing. With money, you can worry less about trivial matters and it can also improve your living environment.
