I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman
Chapter 49: Xiang steals chili peppers
Zhao Qiqi bought a lot of vegetables and meat from the space and put them in the house, explaining that he asked someone to buy them from the town.
We also bought a lot of new bowls, plates, brooms, etc., all of which were tied with red cloth strips.
She didn't quite know how to arrange the housewarming, so she planned to invite Old Madam Gu over, believing that she would not refuse.
"Mom, someone went to the mountain to steal water. They mixed in with the people in our village. They covered themselves up tightly but were still recognized by Gu Afu."
After hearing Gu Yantang's words, Zhao Qiqi became curious about where he was from.
If they were people from nearby villages, the matter would be easy to handle and the village heads would just communicate and warn each other. But if they were refugees from unknown places, the matter would be terrible.
Although the refugees who could get here were in a miserable state, they were definitely not people to be trifled with.
Besides, if one refugee comes here, there will be more. If they take a fancy to this place and rob the houses, the people in this village will definitely be unable to cope with it.
Gu Yantang rolled his eyes and glanced at her, and Zhao Qiqi knew that it must have been done by someone from Zhaojia Village.
Although Zhaojia Village and Gujia Village are both located on both sides of this mountain, this mountain belongs to Gujia Village. In the past, they could secretly pick and hunt some things on the back of the mountain, but now this water source is extremely precious and important.
Not even a drop of water can be let go.
"Mom, it's nothing. The village head personally led people to capture him and send him back to Zhaojia Village."
Zhao Qiqi nodded and led them to put the bed in the last room. They also moved the tables, stools and chairs from the old house in. After decorating it casually, it looked pretty good.
There are five rooms in total. One is for Zhao Qiqi, one is for Gu Yansui and Hu Lan, one is for Gu Yunyun, Gu Yanyan and Su Zijin live in one room, and Gu Yantang and Gu Yanyi live in one room.
"Mom, we will move into the house tomorrow. I think you are the elder and know more about these things, so I'm troubling you to come and help."
Zhao Qiqi happily held onto Old Lady Gu's arm.
Zhao Qiqi's family lived better and better, and Old Mrs. Gu also intended to give in and show weakness. After all, people are like this, they seek benefits and avoid harm, and they will be friendly to anyone who is useful to them.
Seeing that Xiang was about to get angry, Zhao Qiqi knew that Xiang just loved to be clever and show off at inappropriate times.
Zhao Qiqi took the initiative to hold Xiang's hand and said, "Since you are free today, why don't you come over to my place? I have prepared some food for Dazhu, Xiaocao, Xiaohua, Dashuan and the others to play with."
Xiang's mind became active. It was obvious that Zhao Qiqi was coaxing and praising her, and she was happy about it.
"I'll see if I'm free later."
She actually wanted to go very much, but she couldn't say it so directly, as if she was eager to go to her house to eat. But then again, Zhao Qiqi's family was getting richer and richer, and Xiang had seen the food in their house several times and was very greedy.
Old Mrs. Gu said that she wanted to invite Zhao Afu's parents. This couple has both sons and daughters, and their parents are still alive. It would be most appropriate to let such a blessed person open the door.
Zhao Qiqi brought back Xiang, Bai and their children. They were all in the yard together, and there were a lot of things on the table.
Crispy peanuts, cloud cakes, candied fruits, taro glutinous rice cakes made by Zhao Qiqi himself, and some lung fruits, which are peaches.
As soon as Dazhu came up, he picked up a lung fruit without any hesitation. He became more and more impolite during the time he worked here.
Zhao Qiqi didn't care and asked the children to eat. Most of them were sweets, some of which they had never eaten or even seen before.
Xiang's eyes widened. Her sister-in-law's family was so rich that they could afford to treat them with such things. But then she thought again, since they were fed such good food, it must be even better in private.
Xiang picked up a lung fruit without hesitation. The children were quick-handed and sharp-eyed, and they could tell at a glance what was the best. If she didn't eat it, it would be gone.
"Yan Sui, go get some more. My brothers and sisters love it."
She must have seen that Gu Yanyi and Xiaowu originally wanted to eat it, but it was gone because everyone else ate first.
Xiang's eyes kept moving, but Bai sat there quietly, slowly eating the peanuts that the children liked even less.
It’s not that they don’t like it, but there are so many other delicious foods today that they don’t have the stomach to eat this.
Xiang noticed a hint of red in the vegetable garden. She was not here just to warm the house. These past few days, the brat Dazhu had been busy working and eating at Zhao Qiqi's house, and had not done anything she had asked him to do.
They are all so troublesome that she has to take action personally!
Xiang pretended to walk around casually. There were many children at the time and it seemed lively, so no one paid much attention to what she was doing.
She went to the vegetable garden, secretly picked a pepper and hid it.
She couldn't be wrong. Aunt Li said that peppers are red, so this must be it.
After succeeding, she felt relieved and happy. To be honest, she was very nervous just now. She tried several times to pick the flower but failed. She was still very afraid of her sister-in-law. Now she was doing this kind of thing in someone else's house. Her heart was beating wildly.
Xiang turned her head back proudly. As long as she could figure out how to grow peppers, she could become as rich as her sister-in-law now.
Humph, who told the eldest sister-in-law to be so selfish? She didn’t even help them with this way of making money. Wouldn’t it be good for the whole family to work together and make money together?
Maybe she was just afraid that she would be better than him!
"What is your sister-in-law doing?"
Zhao Qiqi's light question scared her so much that she almost jumped up. Oh my god, doing this kind of thing is really painful. I'm going to be scared to death.
"Nothing... nothing, just walking around."
Zhao Qiqi nodded and asked her to come and sit down.
"Sister-in-law, what are you planting in your vegetable garden? It's bright red and looks really pretty."
Xiang thought that it was normal for people like them to talk about such things and it would not arouse Zhao Qiqi's suspicion.
Zhao Qiqi's smile faded a little. In fact, the peppers had been almost picked and a batch had been sent to Zuixianju. Chili powder, chili sauce, and fresh chili have different flavors when used in cooking. She also wanted to let Zuixianju try more to see which one is better.
The remaining some was for cooking at home. Unexpectedly, Xiang was so sharp-eyed. She didn't ask anything else but this. Zhao Qiqi couldn't help but wonder about her purpose.
But now the peppers are unique to her, so the seeds cannot be passed on. Even if she expands production in the future, she has to have guarantees when giving the seeds to other people.
Now she couldn't let Xiang know how peppers were grown.
"It's nothing. I just found some on the mountain and planted them randomly because they looked nice."
Did she really find it on the mountain? Then why had she never found it before? Last time, she searched carefully for a long time but couldn't find it. She went home disappointed and her calves were cramping the next day.
Maybe I missed it? Otherwise, I should go to the mountain to look for it again. Anyway, it is such a profitable business. If she finds it, she will be rich. Otherwise, it will be useless if I don’t know how the peppers grown by Zhao Qiqi’s family are taken.
