Fantasy Farm - Chapter 46
Lu Qingjiu had a long dream.
In his dream, he heard the huge sound of water, and through the small window, Lu Qingjiu saw the big yellow river rushing past the window. The river was extremely wide, and as far as Lu Qingjiu’s eyes could be, there was a mighty, endless turbulence.
It seemed that except for the house he was in, the whole world was submerged by water. Lu Qingjiu felt an indescribable panic. His heart throbbed. He raised his head and saw it in the dark clouds. A huge eye. The pupils of those eyes were erected like cats, and the eyes were blood-like bright red.
These eyes seemed to have noticed the existence of Lu Qingjiu, and looked in the direction where he was. Lu Qingjiu covered his nose and mouth, trying to reduce the sound of breathing that had become rapid because of fear, and he shrank in the corner and moved. I dare not move.
There was only the sound of wild running water in his ears. Just when Lu Qingjiu thought that the thing had left, he heard a roar of a beast. This roar shook the world and shook the house where Lu Qingjiu was staying. After shaking, Lu Qingjiu slowly raised his head. He saw a huge beast in the sky, leaping towards him…
Then Lu Qingjiu woke up from the terrible dream. There was sweat all over his body, his chest was violently ups and downs, and he needed to breathe as much oxygen as possible to make his overly nervous heart feel better.
“Huhuhu…” When Lu Qingjiu came over, he realized that everything just now was a dream. He raised his hand and picked up the phone to look at the time. It was three o’clock in the morning, which was the darkest moment before dawn. He sat up, vaguely remembering that he seemed to be attending the autumn festival in the village yesterday. After drinking too much alcohol, he became drunk. After that, he seemed to have seen a white moon fox… Lu Qingjiu lowered his head and saw his clothes. She was changed into clean pajamas, and there was no alcohol left on her body. It should have been simply cleaned up.
It seemed that he was drunk and was taken home by Bai Yuehu. Lu Qingjiu touched his head, feeling a little bit painful because of the hangover.
He finished drinking the water, calmed down, took a shower in the bathroom, and rinsed off his body that had become a little wet from sweat.
After taking a bath, Lu Qingjiu returned to the bedroom and looked out of the courtyard. A bright moon hung in the sky, peaceful and quiet.
The white moonlight poured down, so that the entire yard was covered with a layer of white yarn. Lu Qingjiu actually didn’t hate such a quiet night, it was bright enough without insects, which calmed his heart.
The roar of the beast in the dream was familiar, and Lu Qingjiu quickly thought of the dream captured in front of his grandma’s grave with a dream catcher.
In that dream, he also heard the same roar.
Just what does this roar mean, what kind of secret is hidden in the wooden box left by his grandma, and the death of his parents…
Lu Qingjiu retracted his eyes and lay back on the bed. He likes this small village called Shuifu, and hopes to find the answer he wants here.
The next day, it was still a sunny morning.
Lu Qingjiu, who had a hangover, slept in. After getting up, he saw Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu eating corn in the yard. Bai Yuehu heard footsteps and looked in his direction, his eyes were There are more things I can’t see than usual, so I opened my mouth and asked faintly: “Arise?”
Lu Qingjiu was a little embarrassed to think of Bai Yuehu taking him back last night to change clothes and wash himself. He pretended to avoid Bai Yuehu’s gaze and said, “Well, I drank too much yesterday, starting today. It’s a bit late, do you eat this in the morning? I’ll cook something else for you.”
“It’s okay.” Yin Xun waved his hand. “It’s good to have some corn occasionally. This corn is so sweet and glutinous. Come and eat some too.”
Lu Qingjiu walked over and took a bite of corn, and it tasted good, sweet and sticky, and a bit sticky in his mouth.
“After lunch, let’s grind the beans.” Lu Qingjiu said to Yin Xun as he ate. He noticed that Bai Yuehu no longer looked at him from his side, and he was relieved and said, “Make some tofu. Come out, and then make fermented bean curd.”
Yin Xun said, “Good, good.”
Fermented bean curd is a kind of soy product that almost every household makes. The production process is similar to that of stinky tofu, but the tofu cubes made will become sticky due to fermentation and will absorb the flavor of the condiment. It’s good to serve steamed buns or porridge. Although Lu Qingjiu saw his grandma do it when he was a child, he almost forgot to do it, so I checked it online and planned to try it first this year.
Tofu is needed to make fermented bean curd, so Lu Qingjiu planned to make some tofu first. He and Yin Xun took the beans to the village, beat the beans into soy milk and brought them back to make tofu.
Because the weather is gradually getting colder, the trees in the village are also beginning to shed their leaves, and the forest is full of gold, which looks very beautiful.
In order to survive the winter, Lu Qingjiu needs to prepare too many things. After the tofu is done, he has to smoke the meat he bought into bacon with wood, so that it can be better preserved. Then, using bacon to stew the beans is also a good thing. dish.
Lu Qingjiu was busy, so he simply handed over the work of the Taobao store to Yin Xun, and asked him to handle the delivery and after-sales.
Yin Xun obediently agreed, but because he hadn’t used the computer much and was not familiar with the keyboard, he sat in front of the computer and tapped the keyboard slowly with **** to reply.
“Will it be too slow for me?” He was a little worried, and turned to ask Lu Qingjiu, who was sitting not far away with his head down and bacon.
“Slowly go slow.” Lu Qingjiu said indifferently, “If you like to buy it or not, you can pour me some soy sauce in.”
“Good.” Yin Xun ran over.
The meat is divided into sauced meat and bacon, but they all need to be marinated for a period of time. This autumn, the weather is cool, the meat is not easy to spoil, and the ventilation is good, and the meat will be smoked in about a month. The wood for the bacon is best to use fruit wood, so that the smell of the smoked meat will bring the fragrance of the fruit wood. Although there are people in Shuifu Village who have bacon every year, only people with better conditions will do it. After all, dozens of kilograms of meat is not a small expense for ordinary families.
After helping Lu Qingjiu pour the soy sauce, Yin Xun ran back and continued tapping on his keyboard. He tapped and frowned suddenly and said, “Wine, some people say that our hair lotion is not good, and we need to return it.”
Lu Qingjiu motioned: “What?”
Yin Xun said, “I said it didn’t work, and I want to return it.” He backed away a bit and let Lu Qingjiu see the screen.
“Oh, let’s return it.” Lu Qingjiu said nothing. Anyway, he couldn’t be sure whether every bottle of hair growth lotion would work. Since some people said it was useless, the refund didn’t matter.
Yin Xun nodded when he heard the words, and then operated the refund option for that person.
At that time, Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun thought that this was going to be the case, but after a couple of days, three or four people suddenly appeared in the store and said that they had to refund. Lu Qingjiu didn’t care at first, but when he looked at the addresses of these people, he found that they all came from the same programming company, and they were all programmers.
Lu Qingjiu was a little confused, because he remembered that when he first purchased this address, he said that the effect was very good. Does the hair growth lotion differ from person to person?
Lu Qingjiu asked about the specific situation, and the people who bought it all answered the same caliber, saying that it was wiped on the head, but there was no effect at all, because Lu Qingjiu promised a refund, so they came to the after-sales service.
Lu Qingjiu looked at the name this person bought, and suddenly remembered something. He used the name to search on social software, but he did not expect it to be found.
Only on social software, this person’s performance is completely different from what he said.
The above highly praised the effect of hair tonic, and also included a photo of dense black hair. The owner of the photo said with joy that he had never used hair tonic with such a good effect, but the price was a bit expensive. Shortcomings.
Lu Qingjiu sneered looking at the photo. But he didn’t say anything. Instead, he still refunded the person, but asked them, the group of people who wanted to refund, to send back all the glass bottles and packaging boxes, and those people agreed.
In the evening, Lu Qingjiu casually told Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun about this as a gossip. In fact, he was not too angry, but thought it was a bit ironic.
“This is too much.” Yin Xun became angry. “It is obvious that the effect is so good, but it has to be said that it has no effect. Isn’t this smashing the sign of our shop? It has to be refunded-too much.”
Lu Qingjiu was rather calm: “This is nothing we can do. After all, we can’t see his people. He said it didn’t work. Can we insist that he lied?”
Yin Xun said, “No, I’m so angry.” He has lived alone in Shuifu Village for a long time, and he has hardly contacted people. Naturally, he has rarely come into contact with the ugly side of human nature.
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry.” Lu Qingjiu said, “I would have known your reaction a long time ago. I won’t talk to you.” Bai Yuehu’s attitude is similar to his, with no expression and no words. care.
“What if they all follow suit from now on?” Yin Xun said, “Do we still need to open our store.”
Lu Qingjiu said: “No, there are bad people and good people in the world. There are always people who think that the effect is good and they will promote us. Let’s eat, it will soon be cold.”
Yin Xun angrily stuffed his mouth with rice.
After eating, Lu Qingjiu went out for a round of digestion, thinking that tomorrow, if he had time, he would go to the town to buy two rabbits back, and marinate the rabbit meat together. Rabbits are quite popular here. Rabbit meat is tender and has fewer bones. It is better than chicken for stir-frying. Of course, there are some people who don’t have a cold with rabbit meat. Lu Qingjiu heard his female colleague say how cute rabbits can eat rabbits. Zhu Miaomiao, who ate rabbit meat with relish at the time, replied very rudely: Chicken/ Chicken is also very cute. Why do you want to eat chicken/chicken. The person who had a table for dinner almost squirted out everything in his mouth.
After returning home from the village, Lu Qingjiu was still angry when he saw Yin Xun. The fool was obviously still unhappy about what Lu Qingjiu said at night. Lu Qingjiu glanced at him without speaking, and turned back into the kitchen. I found the maltose I bought before in the kitchen, then turned the pot on the fire, put the maltose in the pot and boiled at a low temperature, found two chopsticks, put them in the pot and stirred two golden sugar **** out.
This candy is called churn candy here. It is a good tool for coaxing children. When I was a child, I occasionally went to town. Grandma Lu Qingjiu would buy it for him. The candy is cheap and delicious. It is soft on a stick and can be pulled out with a bite. Sugar shreds.
Lu Qingjiu took a couple of smashed candies and went to the yard, and gave Baiyuehu and Yin Xun a mouthful.
Yin Xun smirked while tasting the sugar, but then said angrily: “Lu Qingjiu, what do you mean, do you treat me like a kid?”
Lu Qingjiu said, “Is sugar delicious?”
Yin Xun said, “It’s delicious…”
Lu Qingjiu said, “Are you happy after eating sugar?”
Yin Xun smacked his mouth, his mouth was full of the sweet scent of maltose. This sweetness was not greasy, but with a delicate fragrance. The sweet taste of sugar melted in his mouth, which indeed reduced a lot of his anger. So he nodded honestly: “I’m happy.”
“Go to bed when you’re happy.” Lu Qingjiu patted his furry head, “It’s so late, don’t forget to brush your teeth.”
With sugar in his mouth, Yin Xun left slowly.
Lu Qingjiu looked at his back and heard the words from Baiyue Fox, who had not reacted much behind him, “It’s so foolish.”
Lu Qingjiu turned his head to look at him, and smiled: “Aren’t you pretty foolish?”
Baiyue Fox didn’t speak, and slowly licked the syrup hanging on his lips. His bright red tongue rolled gently on his pale lips, and it smelled of color inexplicably, but he But what he said was not so gentle. Bai Yuehu said, “You really don’t care.”
Lu Qingjiu got through at one point, he blinked and laughed: “What do you care about?”
Baiyuehu’s expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He did not answer Lu Qingjiu’s question, but stood up and waved to Lu Qingjiu, turned and went back to the room to sleep. Looking at the back of Baiyue Fox, Lu Qingjiu went to the utility room to take some objects, and then went to the backyard.
This thing seems to have passed.
The next day, Lu Qingjiu was afraid that Yin Xun would be angry again, so instead of letting him deal with the shop, he opened the software himself. Who knows that when the software was just opened, yesterday those people who claimed to be returning the goods madly sent hundreds of messages to Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu looked at it roughly and instantly understood what was going on.
It turned out that less than an hour after they sent the glass bottles and packages by express, the hair on their heads began to fall down a lot, and the thick black hair instantly returned to its former Mediterranean state. A few people panicked instantly, and began to send messages to Lu Qingjiu asking what happened to the hair, how did it grow out and it fell out.
Lu Qingjiu responded with an innocent look on this: “What has grown out of it? Didn’t you say that there is no effect?”
Those people were speechless for a while when they were asked, yes, yesterday they cheekily said that there was no effect and they just asked Lu Qingjiu to refund them, but today they ran to say that their hair had fallen out. Isn’t this slap your own face?
Lu Qingjiu said: “I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you are talking about. Didn’t you say that the hair tonic has no effect? I have already refunded you.”
The few people who saw the bad situation finally recognized it. Although they didn’t know how Lu Qingjiu did it, they watched their thick black hair return to its original shape. They all couldn’t accept it. Among them, the skin was thinner. The one who directly admitted to Lu Qingjiu’s mistake, said: “The manager, I’m really sorry, I was fascinated by ghosts. The effect of your hair growth lotion is actually very good, but we think that five thousand yuan is a bit expensive… “
Lu Qingjiu said: “Oh, so you mean you guys are all trying to cheat refunds?”
“Yes.” The man admitted, “I’m really sorry, I’ll call you the money again, will you give me another bottle of hair growth lotion?”
Lu Qingjiu ruthlessly rejected this person’s request. Although he has a good temper, he is not the kind of person who has been bullied to the house and greets him with a smile. In the face of the guests’ regrets and re-buying requests, he just said: “Sorry, I have already processed a refund for you. If you want to purchase, please wait next month.”
The customer said: “But the hair tonic in your shop is getting harder and harder to buy… We finally got it last time…”
Lu Qingjiu said: “Then I can only wish you good luck.” He said that he wished this person good luck, so he blacklisted all these people, anyway, the money was refunded, and he assumed that he had never done this. Business.
After disposing of these, Lu Qingjiu simply posted a notice in his store, saying that the store supports invalid refunds, but after the refund, the store will not be responsible for after-sales service. If the refund is made, the hair will fall off again after the refund. In the event of a situation, please do not come to the shopkeeper again, and once it is found that the refund is malicious, the shopkeeper will directly block it.
After putting up the announcement, Lu Qingjiu told Yin Xun about the matter again, who was kneading for Lu Qingjiu in the kitchen.
Yin Xun was very happy when he knew it, and he grinned happily and revealed that lovely tiger tooth: “Really? Then how can you make their hair fall out?”
Lu Qingjiu said, “Of course I can’t do it.”
Yin Xun said, “Then who can do it?”
Lu Qingjiu said, “Of course it’s the one that made them grow their hair.”
Yin Xun: “The ghost girl in the backyard?”
Lu Qingjiu nodded.
After Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu left last night, he took the joss stick to feed the lady ghost as usual, but now the aperture above the well is getting bigger and bigger, and the light it emits can be described as holy. According to Baiyuehu’s statement, it is estimated that in a while, the female ghost lady will really become a god.
When lighting incense candles on weekdays, Lu Qingjiu didn’t speak much, but last night he told the lady ghost what happened in the shop in detail. Lu Qingjiu didn’t know if it would be effective, so he gave it a try.
But obviously, the female ghost lady who obsessed with being desecrated was very angry, and made those people pay a painful price the next day.
Lu Qingjiu can only tell those people that he deserves it.
However, after this incident, the “Small Village” shop in Luqing Hotel became famous on the Internet. Everyone said that the hair growth lotion in this store was really easy to use, but while it worked, some people felt that the effect was too good. , I put it on the first day, and the hair came out the next day. It was a miracle in the medical world.
Of course, some people took this water to a professional organization to conduct a test, but the result of the test is that the water is ordinary well water, and it has no other ingredients. Although it is not harmful to the human body, the problem is here. How did it grow?
Netizens have different opinions, but still can’t find a reasonable explanation. At this time, some people contacted Lu Qingjiu and expressed that they wanted to spend a lot of money to buy his secret recipe for hair growth lotion.
Lu Qingjiu refused all of them, and in the end he simply changed a phone number that no one knew, except for Zhu Miaomiao and a few colleagues who had played very well before, and did not give it to anyone.
After handling the Taobao shop, Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun went to the mountain to chop down some fruit trees. The cut wood is all twigs of orange trees, which are perfect for bacon.
Lu Qingjiu set up a stone at the door, put the meat on it, and it was smoked. There should be no open flame when smoking, and something like orange peel and peanut shell must be added to it to make the meat more fragrant.
Bai Yuehu had never seen this practice before, and was a little curious standing beside him: “Is it delicious?”
“Very delicious.” Lu Qingjiu said, “Fried bacon and steamed bacon are delicious, and the stewed soup is also delicious…”
Baiyue Fox heard this, with anticipation in his eyes.
“But I seem to have forgotten to make sausages.” Lu Qingjiu smoked the bacon and suddenly remembered this. “I don’t know if it’s too late.”
“It should be time.” Yin Xun said, “This first snow has not yet fallen.”
“It’s late when it falls.” Lu Qingjiu looked at the weather. Although it was still autumn, they also felt the chill. For this reason, Lu Qingjiu also specially prepared more straws and heaters for the little black flowers for the winter. The fox originally had a coat of fur that could withstand the cold, but Lu Qingjiu turned it into a little VIP who was not very warm. In desperation, Lu Qingjiu could only find two pieces of old clothes and changed them casually to the little fox. Made a few small clothes to keep warm.
“Then we will buy casings and meat tomorrow.” Yin Xun likes sausages very much, especially the sweet ones. Hearing Lu Sake has the meaning of making sausages, he hurriedly agitated, “It must be time.”
Seeing that he wanted to eat so much, Lu Qingjiu nodded and agreed.
When bacon, Lu Qingjiu also threw a few sweet potatoes into the fire. The sweet potatoes are red-hearted sweet potatoes, which are grown by the white moon fox. They taste sweet and noodles. They are very delicious. They are served on top of the rice during steaming. Putting two together and steaming it will have the sweet taste of sweet potato with the rice.
The roasted sweet potatoes are also delicious. After peeling off the skin, the core that is still steaming inside is revealed. Yin Xun stuffed his mouth while talking hot, and finally his mouth went dark.
The white moon fox is so elegant when eating this kind of thing, and a little black carbon dust is stained on the corner of its mouth.
Lu Qingjiu looked at the appearance of the two eating sweet potatoes, and he couldn’t help but bend his eyes. He felt like he was a child. This feeling is very wonderful, as if turning back in time. Once you turn around, you can see an old man standing at the door, kindly. Smiles at him.
“Lu Qingjiu, what are you laughing at?” Yin Xun asked him.
“Me? I didn’t laugh at anything.” Lu Qingjiu said, “What’s wrong?”
“What are you not laughing at?” Yin Xun looked at Lu Sake suspiciously. “Then why do you look at me like your son?”
Lu Qingjiu said innocently, “Is there?”
Yin Xun: “Yes!”
Lu Qingjiu said: “Okay, I’ll just barely recognize your son.”
Yin Xun said angrily: “I treat you as a friend, but you want to be my dad?!”
Lu Qingjiu couldn’t help laughing.
