Chapter 474: Cattle and Horses Prefer Freedom
"Miss Jinse, you really put it too seriously. I am just thinking this way. I will let things take their own course in the future. I don't mind how others imitate me."
Zhou Mingshu really didn't think that far ahead.
Of course, in her opinion, many things cannot be imitated.
For example, in our own sweet soup shop, many things there cannot be replicated one-to-one without specific operating steps.
"No wonder. I've heard about the chili peppers in your restaurant. Although many shops also use this chili pepper, the quantity and scale are still not up to par compared to yours."
Zhou Mingshu smiled and said nothing more. These things did not belong to her alone, so she would not be so selfish.
After Wei Jinse had eaten and drunk her fill, she did not forget to bring some for her cousin.
Ever since they met Master Zhu here, the two of them have been spending time together reading and painting whenever they have time, and they get along like a pair of pants.
Even her cousin sometimes can't get a word in.
"Have you two been so lazy again? Miss Mingshu brought some delicious food. Cousin, Master Zhu, come and have a taste."
Xiang Qian was not very interested in these foods, but Zhu Chenxi put down the brush in his hand.
"Brother Xiang, my niece's cooking skills are very good. We haven't eaten anything for most of the day, so it's a good time to take a break."
The most important thing is not to let Miss Wei down.
"Okay, Brother Zhu, please go first."
Zhu Chenxi didn't hesitate to sit down and pour three cups of tea, waiting for the two to come over.
"Miss Wei, have you been used? How about we go together?"
"No, I've already eaten. You guys should eat first."
Wei Jinse did not sit down, but walked to the desk where they had just been to look at the results of their morning work.
"Mr. Zhu, did you draw this picture?"
Wei Jinse looked at the beautiful pastoral scene in front of her and couldn't help but open her eyes wide.
"Miss Wei, I did it."
After confirming that Zhu Chenxi was the author, Wei Jinse was even more delighted.
She was right about the man. She had not expected that Mr. Zhu was so knowledgeable and his paintings were also quite good.
"Mr. Zhu, this picture is so beautiful. It is exactly the same as the real scene outside!"
Zhu Chenxi's cheeks turned slightly red when she was praised, and she even felt a little embarrassed.
"My humble skill is appreciated by Miss Wei."
His painting skills were not considered outstanding. It was only when Mingyuan showed him his skills during their free time that he happened to learn from them. He did not expect that they would come in handy today and he inadvertently won Miss Wei's praise.
"Mr. Zhu is really too modest, cousin, you should learn more from him."
Wei Jinse smiled sweetly as she flipped through the books on the desk. She not only admired the paintings but also the calligraphy.
It was really worth the trip to deliver this meal.
"Brother Zhu, what kind of pancake is this? It's quite delicious."
"If it tastes good, eat more. This bun is not bad either. Come and try it."
……
Since Zhou Mingshu became a "hands-off boss", his days afterwards became more leisurely.
When you want to go into the mountains, go into the mountains; when you want to go on a boat, go on a boat.
When you want to eat mushrooms, go pick them. When you want to eat river food, go to the river to catch fish and shrimps.
What a happy life!
A miserable life as a beast of burden needs to be cured by a lifetime of freedom.
She could live this kind of free rural life for the rest of her life and never get tired of it.
"Huzi, follow me into the mountains, let's go!"
Zhou Mingshu carried a small backpack and went into the mountains again. Her goal this time was to pick mushrooms.
I have stored a lot of mushrooms at home, but they have all been dried.
If you want to eat, eat fresh food. There is a mountain right at your doorstep, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to pick some.
At this time of year in previous years, every household would carry a backpack and go into the mountains to collect mountain products, and all kinds of crooked paths would be trampled out in the mountains.
Mountain products are gifts from the mountains and are free of charge. They belong to whoever puts them in their basket.
But this year, there was little movement in the mountains, and everyone was tending to the crops in the fields.
The hundreds of acres of land bestowed upon the Zhou family by the emperor need someone to take care of them. In addition, there are shops and flower gardens, and each of them needs helpers. A lot of people are needed.
Therefore, as long as the villagers of Lianglin Village had no enmity with the Zhou family, they all got jobs from them to some extent, and even the children could get a lot of wages.
The villagers became wealthy thanks to the Zhou family, and could easily eat meat on the first and fifteenth days of every month.
However, they have to work in the fields most of the time. In addition to taking care of their employers' families, they also have to take care of their own fields, so they have no time to go into the mountains.
The adults don’t have time and the children don’t dare to go into the mountains rashly, so many mountain roads are deserted.
"Huzi, clear the way."
Hu Zi was very big, fat and strong, almost as tall as Zhou Mingshu's thigh.
Zhou Mingshu followed behind it and was not afraid that a wild boar or snake would suddenly jump out. The safety factor was greatly improved and he felt very safe.
As fewer people come into the mountains, there are more mountain delicacies.
In previous years, you had to walk several hills further into the mountains to find good stuff, but now I have encountered several nests of mushrooms as soon as I entered the mountains.
The wild enoki mushrooms have really fat caps, and they grow in clusters. Just pick a few and the bottom of the basket will be filled with them.
The wild vegetables all over the ground grow even more wildly than the weeds.
Of course, there are some medicinal herbs that people who don’t know them might think are weeds.
Zhou Mingshu laughed. If she continued like this, she would have to fill up the basket before she could walk halfway up the hill.
After looking at the system points, I decided to just feed them all to the system since there are so many good things in the system.
As long as you have enough points, good things will be inexhaustible.
After working for most of an hour, the backpack on his back was completely filled with mushrooms and wild vegetables.
Zhou Mingshu sat on a dead tree stump, put her backpack aside and took a rest. She wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Then he exchanged a bottle of iced Coca-Cola in the system and gulped down half of it.
"Huh~ It really quenches my thirst. It feels so good. Huzi, come here."
There were several stones in front of Zhou Mingshu, and there happened to be a depression on the stones.
Seeing that the stone was relatively clean, Zhou Mingshu directly poured Coca-Cola into the depression, temporarily using it as Hu Zi's dog bowl.
After taking a sip, it fought a fierce battle and the taste was really intoxicating.
Hu Zi had never drunk this kind of drink before, but he felt refreshed all over and wanted to drink it again.
Zhou Mingshu couldn't help but laugh out loud at its silly and cute appearance.
"Hahaha, you're so funny!"
After resting for a while, Zhou Mingshu picked up his sickle and walked back into the depths of the forest.
While she has time, she wants to collect more and exchange them for points for future use.
This way, you won't have to worry about inventory when you need it.
