Hu Ji only sells wontons and fried cakes, and the portions are generous. Usually a bowl of wontons and a fried cake will make you very full. Qin Shan and Chen Feng are big eaters, so they each added a fried cake, which neither Qin Xiaoxiao nor Hu Qingqing liked very much.

Eating greasy pancakes, the two sisters shared one piece.

After eating and drinking, Qin Shan got up and was going to buy two roast ducks diagonally across the street. Hu Qingqing stood up immediately with a mouthful of lips: "Uncle, please rest, Xiaoxiao and I will go buy it!"

Qin Shan said curiously: "You girl have become more diligent today."

Hu Qingqing said angrily: "Uncle, please stop burying people. I am a hard-working girl."

Qin Shan nodded: "Well, be diligent. When you get to your husband's house in the future, no one will pick on you about this."

"I, I'm going to buy roast duck, I won't tell you anymore!" Hu Qingqing stomped her feet shyly, dragging Qin Xiaoxiao and ran out.

Qin Xiaoxiao was helpless. She reluctantly glanced at the last wonton in the bowl and could only put down her chopsticks and follow her cousin who was no longer here.

When Qin Shan saw Liu Jin, he was about to get up and rush out. He held him down with quick eyes and hands: "You are a boy, what do you look like after following your sister all day long!"

Liu Jin broke free from his hand, and ran away without looking back without saying a word: "If you don't follow me closely, what will happen if my sister is abducted by a bad guy!"

Qin Shan stared at his back, shook his head and laughed: "The brat has grown up."

The wilting brother-in-law had never protected his niece. This nephew, who was very naughty when he was young and always quarreled with his niece, took on the responsibility of protecting his sister for his father.

When Hu Qingqing saw her brother chasing after her, she shouted with some guilt: "Why are you following me?"

"I'm following my cousin, it has nothing to do with you." Liu Jinba took Qin Xiaoxiao's hand and said flatteringly: "Two roast ducks are not light. My uncle asked me to come over and help."

Qin Xiaoxiao didn't know what he was thinking. She shook her head at Hu Qingqing who was about to drive him back. She took out two coins from her purse and said, "Your grandpa wants to eat braised pig head. Please help me go to the front braised pork head."

Buy two from the grocery store, and use the rest of the money to buy delicious food."

Liu Jin was so excited that his little eyes sparkled: "Really? Are you really going to give me the rest of the money?"

God knows that all his New Year's money was taken away by his bully sister. Normally, it would be more difficult for him to ask her for money to buy some gadgets than to poop when he is constipated. Now, with the extra fifty or sixty cents after buying the braised pig head,

Enough for him to buy a lot of good things.

"Well, I'll give it all to you." Qin Xiaoxiao felt pitiful for his little cousin for the first time, and couldn't help but add: "Don't worry, your sister won't take it away."

"Okay, I'm going to buy a braised pig head!" Liujin snatched the money from her hand without saying a word. His little feet were moving so fast that he didn't care whether his sister would be abducted by bad guys.

"Xiaoxiao, you still have something to do." Hu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, but she was really afraid that her little brother, who was like a follower, would rely on her to go to Zhangji Roast Duck, and he would find out.

"Sister Qingqing, Liujin cares about you very much." Qin Xiaoxiao said seriously: "Don't always find him annoying."

Hu Qingqing was silent for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Xiaoxiao, when did you notice it?"

Qin Xiaoxiao recalled it and said, "Probably when Liu Jin was five years old, he ran into the mountains and got lost alone? That time everyone ran to the mountains to look for him."

Hu Qingqing was stunned, with deep self-blame and guilt on her face: "I..."

"Sister Qingqing? You don't need to say much, I know." Qin Xiaoxiao held her hand and comforted her while walking towards Zhang Ji: "Thanks to you that time, everyone was able to find Liu Jin smoothly. After that, Liu Jin became more and more important.

The more he relies on you? In his heart? You are very important."

Hu Qingqing's eyes turned red. She lowered her head and said, "I'm not a good sister. I know that I can't blame him for some things, but I still can't help but resent him. He is so stupid that he doesn't know anything. He only thinks that I am being mean to him."

He is good."

Qin Xiaoxiao raised her chin and said with a smile: "Isn't it true? With a six-pound temper, if you hadn't strictly disciplined him, he would have been able to fall into the sky if he were older."

My sister-in-law and the others know how to dote on Liu Jin, but they don’t know what is really good for him. If they continue to indulge, Liu Jin will sooner or later grow into an arrogant and domineering villain who cannot distinguish between right and wrong. How can such a person exist?

A good ending?

No matter what Sister Qingqing has in mind, the fact that Liu Jin has grown into the young man with a bad temper but a pure nature is all due to her many years of careful teaching.

"Sister Qingqing, you don't have to doubt your kindness to Liu Jin." Qin Xiaoxiao continued to explain to her cousin who had been haunted by guilt and self-blame for many years: "Liu Jin got seriously ill when he was eight years old. Even the best doctor in the city said

He couldn't be saved. A wandering doctor said that he needed to use the flesh and blood of his close relatives as medicine to save his life. It was you who said without hesitation that you would cut your own flesh. If you didn't really love Liu Jin, you wouldn't do it."

Hu Qingqing didn't expect that she remembered it so clearly, and couldn't help but shed tears: "Xiaoxiao, thank you."

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at her appearance impatiently and urged: "Don't thank me, we have to buy roast duck quickly. It's too late for my father to come out and find someone."

Hu Qingqing was speechless, so she wiped her eyes and pulled her forward: "If I had known I shouldn't bring up old things with you, I wouldn't be in the mood to do anything."

Qin Xiaoxiao ignored her and decided to find an opportunity to inquire more about the situation of the Li family. If the Li family was as miserable as she thought, before Sister Qingqing was completely trapped, she would have to be a bad guy and beat the mandarin ducks.

Hu Qingqing didn't know what she was thinking, so she came to Zhang Jichong and asked for two roast ducks. She glanced into the room from time to time and did not ask the duck waiter about Li Zhao in a roundabout way.

On the other hand, the Pianya guy said glibly: "Miss Hu, Li Zhao is busy in the backyard, do you want to call him out? It's just that my brother called someone for you, how can you thank him?"

As he spoke, he winked at Hu Qingqing, clearly regarding her as someone who could tease her at will.

Hu Qingqing was about to speak out, but Qin Xiaoxiao stopped her and said coldly to the duck clerk: "We are here to buy roast duck, not to find anyone. Do your duty and don't talk nonsense."

!”

The Pianya guy was stunned. Seeing that her demeanor was very different from that of an ordinary woman, he immediately did not dare to speak nonsense and apologized repeatedly: "Yes, I am too talkative. The girl is not to blame, there is nothing to blame..."

Qin Xiaoxiao lowered her eyebrows and ignored him, but her expression was obviously not right.

Hu Qingqing on the side was uneasy. She knew that her cousin was not a narrow-minded person and would definitely not get angry with a waiter. She must have done something wrong to make her cousin unhappy.

At this moment, Li Zhao came out with a pot full of freshly roasted duck. When he saw Qin Xiaoxiao and Hu Qingqing, he couldn't help but suppressed the irritability in his heart, and a surprised smile appeared on his face: "You come here

Already."

Hu Qingqing nodded shyly and pointed at Qin Xiaoxiao: "I will buy roast duck with my cousin."

Cousin? Li Zhao did not show surprise and nodded to Qin Xiaoxiao.

Qin Xiaoxiao glanced at him, nodded slightly and responded to his greeting.

Hu Qingqing secretly observed her cousin's face and saw that she did not show any displeasure with her favorite person. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief and started chatting with Li Zhao with confidence.

Qin Xiaoxiao seemed to find Pianya very interesting and watched intently, turning a deaf ear to the conversation between the two.

Li Zhao, however, did not dare to take it lightly. He braced himself to deal with Hu Qingqing and tried his best not to show any signs of strangeness.

I don't know why, but the faint glance from Qingqing's cousin just now put him under great pressure, as if his thoughts could not escape her eyes at all.

He didn't know if she remembered him, and his behavior in Danyunxuan last time was completely different from his behavior in front of Qingqing. It would be bad if she had an impression of him and noticed his two faces.

He just wants to get away from his leech-like biological father and stepmother, and doesn't want to cause any trouble.

It didn't take long for the two roast ducks to be sliced. Qin Xiaoxiao took the two oil paper packets handed over by the duck slicer, and said softly to her cousin who became more and more engaged as they chatted: "My dad can see here, and he won't leave until now."

It’s time to be suspicious.”

Hu Qingqing was frightened, and hurriedly stopped talking, and reluctantly said to Li Zhao: "It's getting late, and we have to go back in a hurry, so we'll leave first."

Li Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and waved to her with a gentle smile: "Be careful on the road."

Hu Qingqing lowered her head shyly, pulling Qin Xiaoxiao away in a hurry.

Li Zhao watched the two sisters go away, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"It seems that someone is about to do something good. He coaxed the girl to even bring her good sisters! Tsk, there really is a trick!" the Pian Ya guy said in a sinister tone, wishing he could have his jealousy of Li Zhao engraved on his forehead.

He had always looked down on Li Zhao, feeling that Li Zhao was inferior to him in every aspect. As a result, this person who was inferior to him in every aspect was attracted by a pretty girl. How could he not be angry?

Seeing that Li Zhao didn't speak, Guy Pianya put his oily hand on his shoulder, and the two brothers said as if: "Don't let the good news go to outsiders. I think Miss Hu's cousin is good. Later, please help me talk to her in front of her."

Good words, brother, I will never treat you badly!"

Li Zhao threw his hand away with all his strength, snorted coldly and walked to the kitchen: "The toad wants to eat swan meat!"

The sliced ​​duck clerk was so angry that he dropped the sliced ​​duck knife in his hand and was about to roll up his sleeves to settle the score with Li Zhao. Unfortunately, a guest happened to come, so he had to stay and greet the guest, otherwise the shopkeeper would know that it was

You will be scolded and have your wages deducted.

On the other side, Hu Qingqing asked cautiously: "Xiaoxiao, did I do something wrong just now that made you angry?"

Qin Xiaoxiao glanced at Hu Ji who was not far away, and saw her father standing at the door waiting for them, so she whispered: "I will explain it to you slowly when I get back."

When Hu Qingqing heard this, she couldn't help but feel anxious.

When Qin Xiaoxiao saw this, he laughed dumbly: "What are you afraid of? I won't eat you."

Hu Qingqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and rolled her eyes at her: "You said it lightly, don't you know that my stern face is scary?"

Qin Xiaoxiao touched his face and asked doubtfully: "Is there any? Brother Li said that my stern face looks like a big meat bun, which makes people want to pinch it more. It's not as scary as you said."

Hu Qingqing rolled her eyes and said mischievously: "The big meat buns are so fragrant and soft, shouldn't you want to take a bite?"

Qin Xiao smiled and looked at her, half-smiling but not smiling: "Sister Qingqing, you have become bad."

Hu Qingqing was horrified and didn't dare to joke around anymore. She had a "handle" in this girl's hands, but she couldn't stand her teasing.

Not long after the sisters returned to Huji, Liu Jin came back carrying two heavy braised pig heads.

Qin Shan smelled the aroma of roast duck and braised pig head, and the glutton in his belly was suddenly aroused. He couldn't wait to get the carriage, and he couldn't wait to run home and have a drink with his father and brothers.

When they returned home, Mr. Qin asked about the rent collection. Qin Shan told the story of the trouble caused by Chu Erhu and others, and he could not hide his anger in his words.

Lin Qiuniang was very angry, but she couldn't help being afraid: "Fortunately, the village chief was sensible and didn't listen to that bad guy's manipulations, otherwise you would have suffered a big loss if the trouble got bigger!"

Mrs. Miao nodded her head and took her granddaughter to look at her again and again. She kept mumbling: "I'll just rent it to your dad next time. Your dad is thick-skinned and thick-skinned. It won't hurt if he gets beaten a few times if there's a fight."

"

Qin Shan heard this clearly and couldn't laugh or cry: "Mom, don't just worry about your granddaughter, you should also feel sorry for your son!"
