Qi Xiaoying drank such good tea, and Meng Li also set out some snacks. She was uncomfortable sitting there waiting for food.
"Okay, I like cooking."
While Meng Li was washing rice, Qi Xiaoying quickly lit a fire and asked, "Sister Li, is my little sister also learning to read and write?"
"Well, Sir, by the way, you can also teach my little sister. She is young and it is the time for her enlightenment."
"My little sister will definitely be fine from now on." Qi Xiaoying said sincerely.
Girls' families generally do not have the opportunity to receive education. I heard that the lives of girls who can read and write are completely different from them.
Not to mention whether to marry or not, if she could marry Meng Ning, it would be a blessing, enough to ensure stability in this life.
It is said that after learning knowledge, my state of mind has completely changed, and my feeling of living is different, as if another sky has opened up.
Meng Li smiled: "Kung fu pays off, if you want to learn it, Sister Xiaoying, you can also learn it in the future."
At least you can learn to read and write letters.
Qi Xiaoying shook her head and smiled: "How could I have such a fate?"
This is unthinkable.
Meng Li joked: "When you marry my second brother, if you are willing to learn, my second brother will definitely teach you patiently."
Probably because he came from that era, when everyone had to receive nine years of compulsory education from childhood to adulthood and could not control others, Meng Li felt that everyone in the family should know a few words.
Qi Xiaoying's face suddenly turned red: "Oh, let's not talk about this anymore."
Then he took a basket of vegetables and went to the well to wash them.
Meng Li took a look outside. Qi Xiaoying worked quickly and seriously. She was a simple person and good-looking. It would be great to be her sister-in-law.
Meng Yao came out of the study and was a little surprised to see one more person busy.
"Sister Xiaoying, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. Go back to study. Your eldest sister and I will make the morning meal." Qi Xiaoying said to her.
"Yeah." Meng Yao ran back again.
Meng Li put a few swimming crabs each weighing more than a kilogram into the steamer while thinking about it. Lu Mu had disappeared when we got there this morning. She didn't know where she went.
Just when I was thinking about people, I saw Lu Mu coming in from the courtyard door, carrying a large bundle of firewood on his shoulder and a large bundle of grass in his hand.
It occurred to her that the firewood at home was about to be burned out.
Lu Mu was not mechanically considerate. Perhaps he was sincere and realized what was missing in the family before she did.
Put down the firewood and put the grass in the trough for the horses and oxen to eat.
The man walked into the kitchen.
Meng Li picked up the knife to chop the ribs, and he took the knife.
"It takes 50,000 kilograms of salt. Is there that much?"
The matter of selling salt was left to the man, and Meng Li had been waiting for him to speak.
However, she did not urge Lu Mu. This kind of thing must be done safely.
Fifty thousand catties will be sold at once. The wholesale price of one catty is fifty cents, which is twenty-five hundred taels.
As for the salt reserves in her space, conservatively it can be sold for more than three years. If it is sold quickly, the goods can be sold out in one year.
"Yes." Meng Li said, "However, if you form a stable and high-demand cooperation with one company, don't look for other companies for the time being. It is not good to be targeted by the court."
This suddenly cost 50,000 kilograms. She was still a little shaken. It was not just about money.
If one carriage transports five hundred kilograms, it will take a hundred carriages to transport it. It is too easy to shock people.
However, the Sichuan County side is relatively hidden along the way. If the other party wants so much salt, they will definitely take protective measures.
"Exactly what I thought." The man said.
After saying this, he felt a little regretful. He wanted to keep a distance from Meng Li as much as possible, but sometimes, he didn't mean what he said.
Meng Li smiled at Lu Mu and said, "I said it first, so it's mine."
"Have you given away two bottles of Moutai?"
"Sent out."
Calculating that it should be in the hands of General Zhennan now, Lu Mu believed that few people could resist such a fine wine.
With Sichuan County and the South, his career can be at least one-third.
The swimming crabs were steamed, the dipping sauce was prepared, the ribs were fried, and then a braised abalone was cooked. The mutton bones were already stewing, and the pressure cooker emitted a rich aroma——
The fragrance wafted throughout the courtyard and into the room at the end.
Xie Xian sniffed deeply. This kind of farm-style rice was much more delicious than the food made in the big house according to the established steps.
If he could also eat steaming, fresh meals, I don't know how satisfied he would be.
But the girl either brought him plain porridge or leftovers and treated him like a dog.
Xie Xian planned to go to the kitchen to remind him.
But he injured his bones, hamstrings and hand tendons, and despite his efforts, he couldn't get out of bed at all.
"You Lu Mu, you are so cruel." Xie Xian cursed angrily.
At that time, he tilted his neck to pretend to be dead, otherwise, he would have had two more holes poked in his body.
Xie Xian struggled for a while, and finally lay flat on the bed in vain, with dark energy in his eyes.
He wanted to kill Lu Mu now.
Lu Mu sneezed in the kitchen.
"Are you sick?" Meng Li glanced at him.
"I feel like someone is scolding me."
"That's not me. I didn't scold you just now."
Lu Mu seemed to realize something: "So, you scolded me other times."
Meng Li looked up at the sky: "Just because I didn't scold you just now, does that mean I scolded you other times?"
"Strong words."
"You are."
Lu Mu was wondering, who was scolding him? So brave.
Qi Xiaoying used another stove to cook a few home-cooked dishes.
Her cooking skills are very good, and the dishes she cooks are full of flavor and flavor. Meng Li is even more satisfied with this future sister-in-law.
With three people working together, it doesn't take long to finish a table of dishes.
After the last dish was fried, Meng Wu took the time to enter the yard.
The food cooked at home is so delicious that even if the business in the store is good, I can't help but eat it when it's almost time for dinner.
Meng Li went to shout, and Mr. Jiang came out of the study. Two students, Meng Ning and Meng Yao, followed him on the left and right.
"You have almost practiced Yiheng in the past two days. I will consolidate it this afternoon. Tomorrow I will start teaching you how to read and write simple characters, starting with the Three Character Classic."
"Teacher, is this the book that says humans are inherently good in the beginning?" Meng Yao asked crisply.
Mr. Jiang laughed happily: "You little girl, have you ever learned this before?"
"When I passed the town school, I heard the teacher inside teaching the students to read these words, and said that this was the Three-Character Sutra."
Mr. Jiang stroked his beard and nodded. The little girl has a good memory.
Although he had eaten breakfast, he was still very hungry at this moment. Mr. Jiang quickened his pace. The aroma just now kept wafting to the tip of his nose, and he secretly swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.
I have to say that the food in the second room of the Meng family is so desirable.
There is still a table full of dishes, everything you want is available, expensive home-cooked ones, light and spicy ones.
There was a plate placed at each person's place. Meng Li served them with lamb bones and swimming crabs. It was not suitable for drinking at noon, so he poured half a cup for everyone.
Qi Xiaoying was a little surprised that the second wife of the Meng family usually ate so well, but considering her current family fortune, it was normal for her to eat like this.
Her position was right next to Meng Ning. She knew how to chew the sheep's bones, but when she looked at the swimming crabs, Qi Xiaoying's face was blank.
