Chapter 68
C68 – Why Are You Selling Vegetables in the Street
As soon as the cabbage leaf entered his mouth, a crisp and sweet feeling immediately echoed in his mouth. The corn porridge used to be delicious, but this vegetable was a hundred times better than the corn porridge.
After all, the corn porridge was only warmed a little when the water was expelled by the divine power. However, these vegetables had been nurtured several times by Zhang Xiaoloong with great effort, starting from the moment the vegetable seeds were planted.
This time, Zhang Xiaoloong was even more confident. If anyone had eaten this kind of food before, even if it was just dried food, it would not be called a dish anymore.
As he was immersed in his joy, he heard Lee Xiulian’s surprised voice at the door of the greenhouse.
“Yeah, this is the latest type of vegetable I bought. Elder Sister Lianzi, try it too. It’s delicious.” Zhang Xiaoloong took another vegetable and handed it over to the other party to eat.
Lee Xiulian took it but did not eat it. She laughed and reached out a finger to wipe Zhang Xiaoloong’s mouth. “You are so old. You still do not know how to wipe your mouth when you eat.”
Zhang Xiaoloong took a look and realized that it was when he just ate. He accidentally touched a small piece of vegetable leaf. Maybe he was immersed in the fragrance of the vegetables. So he did not notice it for a moment and could not help smiling awkwardly. “Elder Sister Lianzi, quickly try it. Oh, right. I will bring some food home later. I was originally planning to send it over myself. Since Elder Sister Lianzi is here, I’ll save a trip. “
“Jinghui said it was nice to hear that you didn’t go to my place for ten days. That’s why you said that when I came.” Lee Xiulian rolled her eyes but no matter how she looked at it, it looked like she was flirting.
Zhang Xiaoloong felt that something was not right, but he did not care. Maybe the way she blinked just now was not right. Why would Elder Sister Lianzi wink at him? Hmm, the way she blinked was definitely wrong!
Lee Xiulian’s heart was pounding, but she also knew that she could not go too far. She could only follow the other party’s intentions and picked a piece of vegetable leaf and put it into her mouth. As she put it, she said, “This dish is not a cucumber. Why did you let people… eat…”
He only said half of his sentence before the remaining half completely drowned in his stomach. He just hurriedly stuffed the vegetable leaf into his mouth.
“This… is too delicious? Is this a dish or a fruit? Why is it even more delicious than a fruit?” Lee Xiulian simply could not believe that she was eating vegetable leaves.
“Hehe…” Zhang Xiaoloong did not say much. He just stood there and looked at the other party smiling foolishly. Suddenly, he reached out his hand in a hurry. “Don’t… don’t eat vegetable roots…”
“It’s really too delicious.” Lee Xiulian wiped her mouth with her hand and her eyes were watery. “Thank you, Xiaoloong, for letting me eat such a delicious dish. I just feel…”
She stopped talking and looked up at Zhang Xiaoloong. Suddenly, she tiptoed and kissed Zhang Xiaoloong on the face.
She blushed and ran like a rabbit.
Zhang Xiaoloong was also stunned. He wiped his face with his hand and said in surprise, “It’s just a dish, isn’t it? This Elder Sister Lianzi is too excited, she even forgot to take the dish, Little Lang…”
When he turned his head to look, he was immediately speechless. “Don’t use your claws to cover your eyes, I didn’t do anything bad…”
After a simple tidying up, he went home with a big bag of small vegetables in front of him.
He originally wanted to personally deliver some vegetables to Wang Tiezhu’s house, but he was afraid that Lee Xiulian would lose control and kiss him just now. If he went now, the other party would feel embarrassed. After thinking for a while, he let his mother, Liu Mei, send it over.
Lee Xiulian’s heart was also beating at this time. She did not know what happened at that time. She could not control herself and wanted to kiss this man. She even wanted to do everything there at that time.
Seeing that the person who came to deliver the food was Liu Mei, she felt a little disappointed in her heart. It seemed that the kid really took it seriously, but it was nothing. Since he was willing to deliver the food, he must be afraid that the two of them would feel embarrassed when they saw him. As long as she took some time to explain, she would say that she ate too happily at that time…
Speaking of which, her kiss had succeeded. She was even happier than when she had eaten the food. It was as if the food was a drug that could make people feel addictive, and Zhang Xiaoloong was the antidote to the poison.
Lee Xiulian had told her man that she only wanted Zhang Xiaoloong to help her get a child, and she did not think about anything else.
But a woman was at home, guarding a widow every day. Did she really not have any other thoughts? Both of them probably knew this in their hearts.
But at the same time, Lee Xiulian also knew very well that she and Zhang Xiaoloong could have such a relationship, and that was already the limit. That was still the pity of the heavens.
Be openly with Zhang Xiaoloong? Not to mention the age gap between the two of them, just this matter would not happen.
Therefore, no matter what she thought in her heart, it was already the best outcome for her to be able to realize her initial thoughts in the end. She was afraid that if Zhang Xiaoloong did not do it, then everything would be in vain.
Once a woman had a goal, she would think a hundred times more than a man. Therefore, the current Lee Xiulian was also desperately trying to get closer to Liu Mei. Two people who were not very familiar with each other wanted to get closer to each other. The other was also happy to get close to the other. Soon, they became as close as sisters.
…
Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaoloong carried a big bag of vegetables and caught up with the car heading to Qingyang City.
Good vegetables had to be sold in a good place. Otherwise, no matter how good the vegetables were, even if the villagers didn’t have that much money to buy them, they still wouldn’t be able to sell them at a high price.
Zhang Xiaoloong had thought about this long ago. He also planned not to cook anything else. He only needed to find a better restaurant in the city and let them taste the vegetables.
Yes, as long as they had a taste, even if it was raw, he was not afraid that they would not buy it.
But later on, Zhang Xiaoloong thought of this method and knew that his thinking was too simple.
After getting out of the car, he found a taxi and told the driver that he wanted to find a better restaurant nearby.
This was his experience when he entered the city last time. As long as it was a slightly famous place, taxi drivers were undoubtedly the most familiar with it. Besides, restaurants were places that they would often come and go.
It did not take long for the car to stop at the entrance of a Yunjiang Hotel. After paying the fare, the driver carried the vegetables and walked inside.
The doorman quickly came up and did not chase him away because of his clothes. After all, Zhang Xiaoloong’s temperament seemed alright, and he wasn’t the doorman of every hotel. It was just like in novels. If you didn’t wear expensive clothes, you would mock and ridicule him.
Besides, many rich people nowadays were very strange. When they put on clothes, they deliberately made themselves look like losers. If the waiters of these high-class hotels were to judge people by their clothes, they would probably be scolded to death by the boss.
“Sir, do you have a reservation?” The doorman quickly looked at the bag as he spoke.
He could only see the green inside, but he could not see what it was.
“Hello, I am not here to eat,” Zhang Xiaoloong quickly asked. “I want to ask who is in charge of buying vegetables in your restaurant. Can I see him?”
