Chapter 344 Lightning
After accepting the gift, Zhou Mingshu naturally had to do something.
The next morning, he took Wang Dahai to the registration office to register.
When the manager heard Zhou Mingshu calling him uncle, his eyes and attitude became very enthusiastic.
This is the relative of the young lady from the Zhou family, so he has to take good care of her.
Moreover, this man has muscles all over his body, and it is obvious that he is a good fighter and has great strength!
"San Ya, I didn't want to disturb you, but your aunt Shui Xian took the initiative to find you. I'm really sorry to bother you."
"Uncle Dahai, it's no trouble. We are all neighbors."
Zhou Mingshu smiled. She felt that she was still somewhat useful. She came over to show her face and the person in charge would take better care of her.
Aunt Narcissus is quite thoughtful.
"Okay... I just have one more thing to trouble you with. Your aunt Narcissus is pregnant. If anything happens to her, could you please let me know? I'm worried..."
The big man just said that he didn't want to trouble others, but then he asked others to do something for him. Wang Dahai lowered his head in shame.
He had no other choice. His family was short of money and his wife was pregnant.
Working in a mine is really a helpless act.
"Aunt is pregnant! Congratulations! Don't worry, Uncle Dahai. If anything happens, I will come to tell you in the middle of the night."
After hearing Zhou Mingshu's assurance, Wang Dahai left with a grateful smile.
It’s not that Zhou Mingshu is meddling in other people’s business. It wouldn’t cost much to lend a hand to such a close neighbor.
Besides, in his grandmother's eyes, Wang Dahai is a good boy.
Zhou Mingshu took out the dried jasmine flowers that had been dried in the morning, boiled them in a pot together with rock sugar, and finally added an appropriate amount of white jelly and boiled them.
After cooling, it becomes jasmine tea jelly.
Use a knife to cut it into small square pieces, and they will bounce around when served on the plate.
This thing will taste good if you add it to milk tea.
When Zhou Mingshu went to the military defense camp with jasmine milk tea, he found that Lord Qi was not there.
"Master Chengfeng, where is Master Qi? When will he come back?"
Zhou Mingshu, who was about to leave, happened to see Chengfeng coming towards him.
"Miss Zhou, the master didn't say when he would be back, and I don't know exactly what he was going to do."
"Well, thank you."
After Zhou Mingshu expressed his gratitude, Chengfeng walked away with a stack of information.
She pursed her lips, not knowing what Lord Qi was doing as his injuries had not yet healed.
Qi Rui didn't go far. He went to the back of the mine to check the refined iron.
This was, after all, the first batch of fine iron shipped back to the capital. Although some matters were handed over to Qi Xu, he still had to take a look before he could feel at ease, so he came back a little late.
Zhou Mingshu waited in the military defense camp for a while, and when he saw that no one had returned, he went back with the food box.
It doesn’t matter if no one is around. She can enjoy these added milk teas all by herself.
Before she even reached the restaurant, she sat on a rock by the roadside and started drinking.
"Tsk, it's really delicious. It's a pity that Lord Qi didn't get to drink it."
Zhou Mingshu was enjoying the scenery while sipping the milk tea in his bowl, and he didn't notice a few horses appearing on the road ahead.
"Mingshu? Why are you sitting here?"
When Qi Rui saw that it was Zhou Mingshu, he dismounted and came over.
"Sir? You..."
Before Zhou Mingshu could finish his words, she was stunned.
The reason was simple: there was still a mouthful of milk tea left in the bowl.
And I was caught red-handed. How embarrassing!
"Is this for me? Did you enjoy it by yourself when I wasn't around?"
Qi Rui asked the people behind him to go first, and he sat shoulder to shoulder with Zhou Mingshu.
"This is a new product I made called milk tea. I thought you wouldn't be coming back, so I drank it myself to avoid wasting it."
Zhou Mingshu explained awkwardly.
"Luckily you left me one bite. It would be a shame if I didn't try it."
Qi Rui grabbed the bowl and drank it down. What was left at the bottom of the bowl were some milk tea toppings, including crushed red beans, glutinous rice balls, and the tea jelly that had just been made today.
Qi Rui chewed it and swallowed it, with an expression of surprise on his face.
"This milk tea is really delicious. I've never tasted anything like it before..."
"Why are you so surprised? If it wasn't broad daylight, I would have thought you saw a ghost."
"My Lord, I didn't see a ghost. I saw something scarier than a ghost."
Zhou Mingshu was stunned and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
This was the leftovers from my drinking, and it was from the bowl I used, but Lord Qi just drank it all? !
"Hahaha..." Qi Rui seemed to understand what the certificate said and laughed out loud.
"What's the big deal? I had a lot to eat during the war. I don't care about these things."
"By the way, do you have any more at home? I haven't had enough of this one." Qi Rui raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, yes. Let's go to the restaurant. You can eat as much as you want."
"Okay, let's get on the horse."
Qi Rui led the horse over and motioned Zhou Mingshu to get on, but Zhou Mingshu was a little hesitant.
First of all, once bitten by a snake, one becomes afraid of ropes for ten years, so she was a little scared.
Then, men and women should not touch each other. It would be uncomfortable to ride together, and it would not be nice to be seen by others.
Besides, what right did a commoner like her have to ride on the same horse as the Lord? !
"Mingshu, don't be afraid. Even if you are injured, I will never let you fall. Come on."
Qi Rui raised his arm to signal her to hold on to the horse, but she still refused.
"Sir, won't the horses be tiring for both of us to ride on? You can just ride alone, and I'll just run below."
"Girl, how much flesh do you have? It's not even as heavy as my armor. Hurry up and get on. It's a good opportunity to get familiar with it in advance. I'll take you to the stable in a few days and teach you how to ride a horse."
Zhou Mingshu couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to sit on it, and then Qi Rui followed him up.
Lord Qi's breath sprayed on her head, causing her scalp to itch. She shrank forward tremblingly, as quiet as a quail.
"Don't be so nervous, relax a little, regulate your breathing, straighten your back, relax your hips, and look straight ahead."
Qi Rui's tone was somewhat serious, just like when he was training his soldiers.
Zhou Mingshu had received nearly twenty years of education in modern times, so when he heard such words, he unconsciously followed suit.
"Very good, this is the position. I will teach you the others later."
Qi Rui's tone softened, and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.
As soon as he pulled the reins, the horse started to walk slowly and swayingly. Zhou Mingshu felt like he was riding a rocking car?!
"How is it? Not bad, right? My horse is called Lightning, and he has a very gentle personality. You will know once you interact with him more."
Zhou Mingshu nodded and touched the horse's mane. It looked quite docile indeed.
Lightning staggered for a while before arriving at the restaurant.
Qi Rui dismounted first, and then helped Zhou Mingshu down.
She shook her legs, the inside of which was a little uncomfortable due to the chrome of the saddle.
Qi Rui tied the horse to a small tree nearby and picked up the lunch box.
"We've been busy for most of the day and haven't had lunch yet. It's a good time to eat something here. Let's go in."
