Chapter Fifty-Four: Door-to-Door Boyfriend

Three days later, Beidu.

A taxi stopped at the gate of a community, and Ning Tao got out of the car with a small medicine box and a large bag of souvenirs brought from the mountain city. Jiang Hao also got out of the car, snatched the heavy package of souvenirs from Ning Tao's hands, and led him into the community.

"I told you not to buy it, but you still want to buy it. What's inside? It's so heavy." Jiang Hao talked to Ning Tao while leading the way.

Ning Tao said with a smile: "It's the first time I come here, how can I be ashamed to be empty-handed? There is nothing inside, except for some local products from the mountain city, and some homemade medicinal materials, spices and so on."

"You still make your own medicinal materials and spices?" Jiang Hao looked surprised.

Ning Tao said: "It's nothing, they are some common nourishing herbs, and then I processed them with my ancestral secret method, which is very helpful to the body. As for the spices, they are all used for cooking, and they may make the dishes taste better. .”

"Probably?" Jiang laughed, "You are a genius doctor. I have never seen such a powerful doctor like you when I grow up. Any disease is a small problem when it comes to you. My mother must like the medicinal materials and spices you handle. Incredible."

Ning Tao smiled a little embarrassedly, "It's just a small thing, as long as Auntie doesn't dislike it."

In front of a unit building, a middle-aged woman with a teddy dog ​​met Jiang Hao and Ning Tao who were about to enter the building. She was stunned for a moment, and then said in a surprised voice: "Oh, this is not Jiang Hao. Okay, take your partner home?"

Jiang Hao showed an embarrassing expression and blushed, "Hello, Aunt Zhang, we actually..."

"Actually, what's the matter? Why are you so embarrassed?" Aunt Zhang looked at Ning Tao again and again, and then said, "This young man is really handsome. What's his name? What does he do? Where is he from?"

Aunt Hua Guo's curiosity is so powerful.

Without waiting for Ning Tao to reply, Jiang Hao dragged Ning Tao into the building, and said as he walked: "Aunt Zhang, my mother is waiting for us, so we won't talk any more, see you later."

That Auntie Zhang looked back at Ning Tao, who was trotted into the unit building by Jiang Hao, and shook her head slightly, "He is handsome, but he is a little poor, and he doesn't even have a decent dress. The difference is one hundred and eight thousand miles, and our uncle wears a watch that costs tens of thousands..."

Ning Tao heard this, but he could only pretend that he didn't hear it.

When I came to Jiang Hao's home, Jiang Hao's mother Tang Zhen was all smiles. Hearing that Jiang Hao said that Ning Tao had specially brought her some nourishing herbs and spices processed by secret methods, she couldn't wait to open the bag and take it out.

Ning Tao gave Tang Zhen three food and tonic medicinal materials, wolfberry, angelica and asparagus, all of which were refined with Meixiangding, but not to the most concentrated and essence level, only about 30% . But even if it is only 30% refined, the goji berries refined by him are crystal clear and fragrant, just like rubies that emit fragrance. There are also angelica and asparagus, these two medicinal materials are as beautiful as amber, with a strange fragrance.

Tang Zhen looked at this and that, and was full of praise, "Oh, what kind of wolfberry is this, so beautiful! And this angelica, oh, if I hang it around my neck and walk out, someone will definitely say that I am wearing agate..."

The spices that Ning Tao gave to Tang Zhen are very common, namely hot pepper, Chinese prickly ash and star anise, but after his spiritual power and the refining of Meixiangding, those hot peppers, Chinese prickly ash and star anise also have crystal clear amber-like texture and strong fragrance , and not only has the aroma of chili, pepper, and star anise itself, but also has some indescribable magical aromas, which make people feel happy physically and mentally, and greatly increase their appetite.

Tang Zhen gave another string of compliments, "Oh, these peppers, Chinese prickly ash, and star anise are so fragrant, I can't bear to eat them, Xiao Ning, you are really capable..."

Jiang Hao couldn't take it anymore, he took Ning Tao and walked to a room, and let go of Ning Tao's hand after entering the door.

This is a woman's room, with a bed, wardrobe, dressing table and a bookshelf, on which there are several trophies and medals, such as the first place in the shooting competition,

The second place in the fighting competition or something, and there are several third-level and second-level military medals.

Too many things make the room a little crowded, but this is also a common situation in the northern capital. The housing prices here have reached 100,000 square meters, and ordinary people simply cannot afford a house. Tang Zhen bought this house more than ten years ago, when the housing price was still cheap. However, she had miscalculated. She didn't have any money at the time, so she only bought this small apartment with two bedrooms and one living room. She lived in one room and Jiang Hao lived in the other room, so there was no guest room.

"You can live in my room these few days, I live in the living room." Jiang Hao said.

Ning Tao hurriedly said: "How can that be done? It's unreasonable for me to cause trouble for you and let you live in the living room. I will live in the living room."

Jiang Hao said: "You are a guest, how can I let you sleep in the living room? That's the decision, you sleep in my room, and I sleep in the living room."

Ning Tao said: "If you don't agree, I'll go to a hotel."

"You..." Jiang Hao was furious at Ning Tao.

Ning Tao smiled, "That's the decision, I live in the living room."

Jiang Hao sighed, "Well, you are really stubborn sometimes."

Ning Tao just smiled and didn't answer.

Tang Zhen made lunch. There were braised pork, boiled pork slices and stewed chicken. These dishes were made with the tonic herbs and spices brought by Ning Tao. Zanthoxylum bungeanum, stewed chicken uses angelica. When these dishes are served on the table, the whole room is full of aroma, which greatly increases the appetite.

But it's not just the aroma, the spices and medicinal ingredients refined by Ning Tao turned a few ordinary dishes into real delicacies. The boiled pork was originally an authentic Sichuan cuisine, but it added the chili and peppercorns refined by Ning Tao. Spicy will not stimulate people's taste buds and stomach, even a northerner can eat it. The stewed chicken with angelica melts in the mouth, delicious and refreshing, and the chicken soup feels warm in the stomach and feels indescribably comfortable, and the mood is still happy. It is simply the real version of "chicken soup for the soul".

Tang Zhen and Jiang smiled so deliciously that they even forgot how women should eat.

Ning Tao is also very happy. In the past three days, he has not only refined a lot of essence aloe vera paste, but also refined some food tonic herbs and spices. This time sending some food tonic herbs and spices to Tang Zhen is also a bit of a "test water". the goal of. Now it seems that the spices refined with Meixiangding are also good things, and they don't worry about not being able to sell them.

Several dishes were quickly wiped out, Tang Zhen burped, and said comfortably: "This is the most comfortable meal I have eaten in my life, Xiao Ning, what will I use my peppers and peppers from now on?" It's over, I still have to ask you for it, you can't refuse me."

Ning Tao smiled and said, "Auntie, just give me a call, and I'll mail it to you."

"Xiao Ning, you are not only a good person, but also so capable, which girl is lucky enough to marry you?" Tang Zhen squinted at Jiang Hao, who was drinking from a water glass, and suddenly said, "" Xiao Ning, why didn't your girlfriend come to Beidu?"

Ning Tao was stunned for a moment, "My girlfriend? Who is it?"

Tang Zhen said: "I'm talking about Lin Qingyu, don't you have a few girlfriends?"

Ning Tao was slightly embarrassed, "Auntie, you misunderstood, I don't have a girlfriend yet, Lin Qingyu and I are just very good friends."

"So that's how it is." Tang Zhen smiled inexplicably, and then stepped on Jiang Hao's instep.

Jiang Hao opened his mouth wide and didn't cry out, but the water he drank just now flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong with you?" Ning Tao asked with concern, he didn't see Tang Zhen's little movements under the dining table.

"It's nothing, let's go, I'll take you to Ding's house." Jiang Hao changed the subject, she knew why her mother stepped on her, and she felt embarrassed thinking about that reason.

"Alright, let's go to Ding's house now." Ning Tao said, but what he was thinking about was the "15th of the lunar month" appointment, and he could only stay in Beidu for a few days.

Tang Zhen said, "Jiang Hao, have you made an appointment with Ding Congjun?"

Ding Congjun, he is the son of Ding Ye, a major general in a certain military region in Beidu. This is what Jiang Hao told Ning Tao on the road, and she also briefly described several important members of the Ding family to Ning Tao. Therefore, when Tang Zhen mentioned Ding Congjun's name, Ning Tao immediately thought of who he was and some related situations. Ding Ye is ill, and now Ding Congjun is in charge of the Ding family.

"Appointment, appointment, mom, let's go." Jiang Hao didn't seem to want to stay any longer, because if she stayed any longer, her mother who hated her for not marrying didn't know what else would come up.

Ning Tao said goodbye to Tang Zhen, and then followed Jiang Hao out of the house with a small medicine box.

On the way to the community, Jiang Hao asked a question, "Just now you told my mother that you don't have a girlfriend, why didn't you find one?"

Ning Tao said embarrassingly: "I'm not even a graduate here. I'm a student with no job and no money, so I'm not qualified to talk to someone."

"That's because you don't want it. If you were offered a million dollars, you would just tear it up. If you were recommended a job, you would reject it without even thinking about it." Jiang Hao still "broke it to heart".

Ning Tao smiled awkwardly, "Let's stop talking about this, I'll call a taxi." He quickened his pace, giving a sense of escape.

Looking at Ning Tao's back, Jiang Hao was stunned for a while before saying, "Why don't you ask me if I have a boyfriend?"

But only she can hear this.

It's not that Ning Tao doesn't want to find a girlfriend, he is also a normal man, and he will be moved when he sees a beautiful and sexy woman. But he can only think about it, and dare not take the initiative to pursue a certain woman. In the past, he couldn't keep up with money. Although money is not the main problem now, his identity as the owner of the Tianwai Clinic has become a new problem for him.

He didn't know if he would be dragged into the crematorium by the clinic one day because he didn't earn enough rent, and he didn't know if he would live for thousands of years like Chen Pingdao. In such a situation, how could he fall in love with an ordinary girl and grow old hand in hand?
