Chapter 120: Whoever Marries You Is Truly His Blessing
Upon hearing that, Shi Jin glared over: "You think I'm stupid? Eating more rice will just make me fat…"
Xiao Shitou gave a hehe laugh.
Shi Jin stepped forward and began scratching Xiao Shitou's itch.
Xiao Shitou dodged while striking back.
Qiao Sheng was quite surprised; he really hadn't expected his son to have this side, but he wasn't like this before—it seemed to start after Shi Jin arrived.
Happy days always pass quickly.
When they were about to head back.
Qiao Sheng found Na Lan Ruo Lan and said, "Grandma, I have something I want to tell you."
"Hmm?"
Na Lan Ruo Lan was a little curious about what Qiao Sheng wanted to say to her.
Qiao Sheng looked straight at Na Lan Ruo Lan and said, "Grandma, I really thank you for trying to match me with Shi Qi, but I don't have that kind of feeling for him, so please don't waste your time on me and him anymore."
Hearing her say that.
Na Lan Ruo Lan asked, "Qiao girl, did Xiao Shi Qi provoke you? Tell Grandma, I'll help you teach him a lesson!"
"Grandma, no."
Qiao Sheng answered without a hint of hesitation.
It's definitely not like that.
Na Lan Ruo Lan murmured puzzled, "Xiao Shi Qi isn't bad-looking, and he's a decent person—why don't you have that feeling for him? Could it be because he talks too little…"
Qiao Sheng immediately shifted the topic.
"Grandma, don't worry about these; when I go back I'll make you honey yuzu tea, canned oranges, and jujube cake…"
Na Lan Ruo Lan loves food the most; her eyes lit up as she asked, "Qiao girl, what are these? Are they tasty?"
No wonder she'd ask that.
They don't have these here.
Qiao Sheng said with a smiling face, "You'll know once you try them."
Upon learning she would make these, Na Lan Ruo Lan went back and had people come pick more sleeves, oranges, and jujubes here, then sent them to Qiao Sheng's shop after picking.
Each, two large baskets.
Qiao Sheng's shop had no room to put them, so she took them to her rented house.
No time in the morning.
Qiao Sheng then made honey sleeve tea, canned oranges, and jujube cake in the afternoon.
She used the fruits they had picked earlier.
Done.
Qiao Sheng took some prepared honey sleeve concentrate, mixed it with warm water, and gave it to Qiao Hushui and them to drink.
Qiao Xuehua took a sip, laughed, and said, "Sis, this drink is great—sweet and sour, not to mention especially fragrant. Sis, you're amazing!"
Qiao Hushui and them also liked it quite a bit.
The canned oranges won't be ready to eat for a few days.
So Qiao Sheng didn't let them taste it.
Jujube cake—she gave each of them a piece.
Qiao Sheng's jujube cake is made with red dates and brown sugar; it's sweet but not cloying, and though it lacks modern fluffiness, it's still decent to eat, and eating it slowly won't cause choking.
This food tastes better when hot.
Qiao Sheng carried the food box and took an ox cart to Feng Ji Private School.
Na Lan Ruo Lan had long wanted to try those things Qiao Sheng mentioned; after tasting, she smiled and said, "Qiao girl, you're really capable—you can do anything. Whoever marries you is truly blessed."
Shi Qi: "……"
Isn't this said just for him to hear?
Speaking of which, aside from being a bit ugly, Qiao Sheng is actually not bad in other aspects.
Qiao Sheng met Na Lan Ruo Lan's gaze, solemnly saying, "Grandma, you're right—whoever marries me will definitely be blessed."
Na Lan Ruo Lan burst out laughing.
"I just like girls like you."
Qiao Sheng wasn't the slightest bit embarrassed.
She calmly said, "Grandma, the canned oranges still need a few days before they're edible—just keep them for a few days then eat. As for the honey sleeve tea, whenever you want to drink it, mix it with water like I did before. The jujube cake tastes best warm; if it's cold, just heat it up before eating."
