But at this time, the dough in his hand not only had eggs added to it, but half of it belonged to him!
Thinking like this, he was full of strength and didn't feel tired at all.
When the water in the pot was boiling and the noodles were ready, Li Qiao sat in front of the stove and started the fire while saying: "Put four more eggs in it."
"...Huh?" Tao Zhu paused.
What kind of people do you need to eat four eggs for a simple dinner?
Including the eggs mixed in when making the noodles, there must be at least six eggs!
"Your body is deficient in nutrients all year round, so you should take more supplements. I've been so busy lately that my feet don't even touch the ground, so I have to take more supplements."
Li Qiao explained with a smile.
"Don't worry, when these fifty kilograms of cakes are sold, we will be rich."
When Tao Zhu heard this, he was really moved when he thought about the profit from Feng Gao.
But the problem is that these fifty kilograms of Fenggao have not been sold yet.
However, looking at Li Qiao's smiling face, he turned around and got the eggs.
Think of it as celebrating his engagement to Li Qiao.
Soon, the noodles were ready, and the two of them each filled a large bowl. Not only were there two poached eggs in each bowl, but there were also obvious oily flowers. The two people who were not very hungry were stimulated by the smell, and their appetites increased. Came immediately.
The fire in the stove has been extinguished, leaving only scarlet fire spots. On the stove, the pea-sized light of the oil lamp separated a small piece of heaven and earth in the dark night.
The two people sat down on the small bench. Li Qiao held the stoneware bowl and took a sip of the soup. Then he couldn't help but give Tao Zhu a thumbs up: "Although it is light, it smells so good."
"As long as you don't think it tastes bad." Tao Zhu raised the corner of his mouth.
This is Li Qiao's first time eating the rice he cooked. He had been worried that the noodles would not suit Li Qiao's taste.
"This taste has nothing to do with being unpalatable. If you ask me, with your skills, you can open a noodle shop."
"It's not as good as you said. But since you like it, I'll do it more in the future." The smile on Tao Zhujun's face widened.
"Making noodles is too hard, just eat other things."
Li Qiao is not picky about food, and there is no noodle machine at this time. It is too tiring to stay in the kitchen kneading and rolling dough on a hot day.
"What's so hard about this? I just did it easily when I was making Feng Gao." Tao Zhucai didn't feel like it was hard work. Compared with going to the fields, cooking was definitely an easy job.
Moreover, cooking for the man in front of him was more tiring than going to the fields, but he was still willing to do so.
"OK."
An idea suddenly popped up in his mind. Li Qiao nodded with a smile and urged: "Eat quickly. After eating, we have to deliver Feng Gao."
Thinking of the tight schedule, Tao Zhu hummed, lowered his head and ate noodles quickly.
After eating a big bowl of noodles, both of us were full.
After a brief tidying up, the two of them put their backpacks on their backs and went out.
The first stop is naturally Li Liang's house. Li Liang, the eldest brother, can definitely bear the words "eldest brother is like father".
Yesterday when he proposed to marry, he learned that Li Qiao had only made five kilograms of Saqima. Not to mention bringing a few pieces to Wang Guihua and Xiaolan, he was reluctant to take a bite himself and had to let Li Qiao carry them all to Tao's house.
Now that even Tao Shu is eating Shaqima, Li Qiao cannot forget this big brother.
However, if the food is given to Li Liang, the second uncle Li Gu cannot be left out.
Li Gu's family background is not good and he hates the original person, but he is still willing to give five taels of silver to the original person to pay off his debts at critical moments. With such a good second uncle, there is no way that Li Qiao would not even give him a mouthful of shaqima.
If it is given to Li Gu, Li Dazhong, the eldest cousin of the third uncle's family, cannot be left behind.
So Li Qiao simply waved his hand and decided to give some to the families who had lent him money, just like giving fish.
Although the price he gave Shaqima was high, the cost was actually not high and he could afford to give it away.
Tao Zhu had no objection to this. He was more grateful to these families than Li Qiao. If these families had not extended a helping hand that day, his man would have only one leg left.
This is not possible.
Therefore, it must be sent.
The two people left three kilograms of Shaqima at Li Liang's house, and then went to Zhuang Fengshou's house.
Today, he used the banker as a grocery store, buying flour and dried eggs. Li Qiao was very embarrassed, so he gave him a pound of Shaqima.
Next is Butcher Zheng’s house.
Butcher Zheng was very happy to see the two of them and asked them what they would do for the banquet on their wedding day.
If you need a pig, just ask him. If Li Qiao doesn't have enough money, he can pay on credit first.
Butcher Zheng was a generous man and came from a wealthy family. He had no contact with the Li family, but when he saw what Li Liang could do for him, he couldn't help but take out the money.
I thought I would never get the money back, but who knew Li Qiao had changed so much!
Faced with Butcher Zheng's kindness, Li Qiao said that he had to think about it again. After all, Brother Zhu was the head of this family.
After leaving Butcher Zheng's house, the two went to Li Gu's house, Li Dazhong's house, and the house of their uncle who was close to Li's father.
These three families all had good attitudes, saying that if Li Qiao needed help when getting married, he could just come to them.
Of course, there was an episode. Han Xiaoyan felt that Li Qiao sent too little Shaqima and was harsh in his words. As a result, before Li Qiao could say anything, Li Dazhong scolded Han Xiaoyan with a serious face and asked Han Xiaoyan to apologize.
Naturally, Han Xiaoyan refused to bow her head, and the couple almost started fighting.
This episode did not affect the moods of Li Qiao and Tao Zhu. After leaving Li Dazhong's house, Li Qiao sent Tao Zhu home.
The four Tao family members didn't sleep, so they waited specially for Tao Zhu.
When he saw Tao Zhu come back at this time, he immediately made all kinds of obscene remarks. He stayed with Li Qiao before they got married, and he came back so late. How despicable!
Li Qiao frowned upon hearing this and was about to use his superpower, but Tao Zhu rolled up his sleeves and punched Tao Shu's head several times.
Tao Zhu's idea is very simple. No one can stop him from getting married. If he dares to stop him, he will serve with his fist.
This time Tao Shu stopped, and the wound on his forehead began to bleed again. He was so frightened that he ran back to the house.
Lai Dongmei had a broken arm and was no match for Tao Zhu, so she could only go back to the house.
Mrs. Tao has always had no opinion and can only yell a few words.
Old Man Tao had a broken leg, so he could only lie on the bed and rely on his mouth to output, which could not really affect Tao Zhu.
Tao Zhu is very satisfied with this status quo.
Li Qiao was relieved.
Tao Zhu went back to his house to sleep, and Li Qiao also went home.
At two o'clock in the morning, Li Qiao arrived at Tao's house pushing a cart.
Facing the cool night breeze, the two of them walked to the county town to sell Feng Gao.

Chapter 22 Buying Things Buy Buy Buy
When Li Qiao and Tao Zhu arrived at the county seat, it was already dawn.
The gate of the county town is still as lively as going to a market. In the corner, where Li Qiao used to sell fish, Shopkeeper Wang and Xiao Wu are already waiting.
Tao Zhu saw Xiao Wu from a distance. He breathed a sigh of relief. The fifty kilograms of Feng Gao were sold at such an expensive price. If Xiao Wu broke the promise, he and Li Qiao might not know when they would sell it.
Li Qiao brought Tao Zhu to the old place. When he put down the cart, shopkeeper Wang walked up to them with his hands behind his back.
"Brother Li, did you make Feng Gao today?"
"Of course, it's just a lot more than what Xiao Wu said yesterday."
Li Qiao replied with a smile.
Tao Zhu, on the other hand, opened the rag on the backpack and took out the brand new linen bag containing Shaqima.
In the food business, Li Qiao pays great attention to hygiene. Whether it is the sack or the backpack for carrying Shaqima, they are all brand new.
A brand new mat made of wheat straw was specially placed under the backpack.
Shopkeeper Wang was very satisfied. Seeing Tao Zhu open the sack, he stepped forward to inspect the goods.
He took out a white handkerchief from his pocket, pinched a piece of Shaqima with the handkerchief and brought it to his mouth. After chewing it, he showed a satisfied look.
"How many pounds does this weigh in total?"
"Fifty-five pounds in total."
Li Qiao brought over five kilograms. He wanted to retail, and he couldn't rely on shopkeeper Wang alone to do business.
"I want them all, wrap them up."
Shopkeeper Wang's chubby hands reached for his purse, intending to pay the bill.
"Okay." Li Qiao nodded.
It’s not too late to open the market in a few days, let’s make money first.
"According to the first price, one pound of Feng Gao is 150 Wen, and fifty-five pounds is 8,250 Wen in total."
"Well, that's the number."
Shopkeeper Wang nodded.
He took out eight taels of silver from his money bag and counted two hundred and fifty copper coins.
Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, Li Qiao directly gave the sack containing Shaqima to Xiao Wu.
"Brother Li, if you can still sell the Feng Gao, I will ask Xiao Wu to come find you again." Shopkeeper Wang left these words and left with Xiao Wu.
