Chapter 313 Falling
"I'm a grown-up now, I'll take a break if I'm tired. It's okay. I just wanted you to stay home and help your elder sister make soap these few days. There are only a few of us at the restaurant. Once the flowering season in the flower garden is over, I won't stop you if you want to go to the restaurant again."
"That's fine. Then tell grandma and the others tomorrow, and we'll go over to eat at noon."
"Okay, go take a shower and go to bed. It's getting late today."
After the mother and daughter finished talking, they went into their rooms to wash up and rest.
The weather the next day was good. Zhou Mingshu picked and dried flowers in the morning, and in the afternoon he helped his uncle and father to deal with the sand and gravel that had been transported.
These tasks have to be done sooner or later, so it is better to do them before summer comes to avoid the heat later.
After she planned the road, my uncle led the workers to start mixing mud, sand and gravel.
After compacting the roadbed, just pave it directly. After it is completely dry, sprinkle a layer of fine stones on it and you're done.
If it doesn't rain too much, the roadbed generally won't disintegrate.
She was busy in the village, but the brothers in the military defense camp and Qi Rui were depressed.
What happened to Miss Zhou this time? Why didn't she send them food? Did the restaurant run into trouble?
Everyone started to have wild thoughts.
Qi Rui thought so too. He hadn't come to deliver food for three consecutive days. Could he have encountered some trouble?
So that day he sent people to look around the restaurant and picked up two workers to ask about the situation.
Qi Rui became even more depressed after getting the news. The restaurant was open for business as usual, no one was making trouble, and even the restaurant had added several more dishes.
Hearing the names of the dishes reported by his subordinates, he felt a little greedy...
I asked you to report the situation, but I didn’t ask you to name the dishes!
Later, when he heard that Miss Zhou was making soap in the village, he began to understand a little.
It turns out that I’m too busy with things at home!
If he doesn’t want to come, then don’t come. He can just go eat by himself.
So that evening, Qi Rui took his people to the restaurant for dinner.
The taste is so nostalgic, and after eating a few hot dishes, I feel relaxed.
Old Mrs. Zhou had anticipated the situation early on, so no one took it seriously.
Just provide normal meals and entertain guests appropriately.
When Qi Rui brought people out to eat, he naturally would not force the people below to come out to eat.
Except for soldiers on duty, everyone can eat whatever they want, but there is one iron rule that must be followed, and that is no alcohol!
If discovered, they will be subject to military law.
As more people ate in the restaurant, Qi Xu, the waiter, became even more tired.
He was busy serving dishes and entertaining the soldiers. Those soldiers all knew him, and he felt a little embarrassed.
Seeing that San Ya's plan was successful, Old Mrs. Zhou had an idea in her mind.
Starting tomorrow, the restaurant will have to add more staff, and they will be too busy to handle it. And she can't always be here to help, she also has to take care of the things at home.
After all, Zhou Shouan and Shen Yang had worked in the kitchen for several years, so they quickly got the hang of it after getting the recipes given by Zhou Mingshu.
They were not idle during this period, and sometimes they would exchange cooking skills.
What I’m afraid of is that I won’t be able to use my skills when I go into battle one day.
Old Mrs. Zhou found them and asked them to start work from tomorrow and work slowly together with their two sisters-in-law.
Zhou Mingshu made soap at home for several days in a row and used up all the peonies in the flower garden.
There were still some late-blooming buds left, so she didn't cut them any more, so that she could replace the peonies in the vase with new ones after they withered.
In the past few days, the path in the flower garden has been paved and is now waiting for the sun to dry it.
Once it's fully shaped you can step on it.
She had originally planned to go for a walk in the flower garden that evening to see if there were any flowers in bloom, and she happened to meet Qi Xu who had just returned.
"Qi Xu? Why are you back at this time? Is the restaurant not busy?"
"Haha, I'm not busy. I'm a woodcutter. I've almost used up all the wood I prepared. Grandma Zhou asked me to go to the backyard to chop wood. You know I'm quite strong. I can basically chop all the wood in the morning. I came back so early because I was thinking about you saying you wanted to learn horse riding a while ago. How can I teach you if I don't come back?"
"Okay, wait for me for a while, I'll go change my clothes."
As soon as Zhou Mingshu heard that she wanted to learn horse riding, she trotted back home.
It was so uncomfortable to wear a skirt last time, so I have to wear pants from now on no matter what.
In addition, she also took off her bun and tied her hair into a high ponytail, which is so convenient!
The two went to the open space at the foot of the mountain. Zhou Mingshu first sat on the horse and walked slowly with the horse.
Later, when he got a little braver, he wanted to let the horse run.
But Qi Xu's big dark horse was somewhat reluctant, as it did not want to escape from its master's control.
I want to kick my ass from time to time!
Zhou Mingshu was so scared that he didn't dare to let his guard down for a moment.
This horse has a really stubborn temper. I’ve been feeding her at home for so many days but she still doesn’t seem to recognize or like her.
Zhou Mingshu was a little tired and was about to dismount to take a rest, but the big black horse went crazy for some reason and threw Zhou Mingshu off.
"Ah~"
Zhou Mingshu screamed and flew into the air. Before he could enjoy the feeling of flying, he slammed onto the ridge of the field.
Qi Xu was so angry that he slapped the dark horse. How could this be so disrespectful to him? !
Being thrown off a horse is no small matter!
He immediately ran over and tried to help Zhou Mingshu up.
"Don't move me, don't move me, let me take a break."
Zhou Mingshu fell to the ground, the pain in his body still not gone away.
Qi Xu kept scolding himself in frustration. He had just loosened the reins and wanted to help San Ya down, but in just a tiny gap, the big black horse went crazy.
Zhou Mingshu still felt some pain in his body, but he still tried to comfort Qi Xu.
"It's okay, it's okay. This little injury is nothing! I'll be fine after a while."
Most of Zhou Mingshu's body was in the ground, and the soil was soft, so he didn't feel any pain at all from the fall.
The ridge of the field was a bit hard, and her upper body fell on it, hitting her waist.
She thought it would get better after a short rest, but unexpectedly the pain got worse.
Did she break her waist?
As soon as this thought came to Zhou Mingshu's mind, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Considering the medical technology of this era, she would be paralyzed in bed for the rest of her life.
"Is Sanya still in pain?"
Qi Xu saw that her expression was not right, so he leaned over and asked.
"It hurts~ I feel like my waist might be broken!"
Zhou Mingshu was already crying and couldn't help feeling scared.
Qi Xu glared at the big black horse next to him and tried to help her up.
But Zhou Mingshu wailed and refused to let anyone touch him, as it hurt so much when he was touched.
He had no choice but to run home and call for help.
In the end, Zhou Mingshu was carried back home.
After they lifted Zhou Mingshu onto the bed and lifted his clothes, they saw that his waist was swollen.
"Oh my god, no, no, I have to go see a doctor. This might be really serious."
The waist is different from other parts of the body. If it is not handled properly, it will cause disability.
Old Mrs. Zhou drove a cart to call a doctor without saying a word.
Qi Xu blamed himself to death!
