Chapter 23 Delicious Spinach Porridge
There is nothing to clean up in the room, just sweep the floor and sweep down the dust and cobwebs, because the grass on the roof of a room on the left is gone, there is a big hole, you can see the sky, and the other two rooms must be leaked, so you must repair the house, which will only start tomorrow. Today, I got a stove and put the pot on.
As soon as the stove was finished, the boss of the Shen family came. He came secretly and couldn't move Shen Zi'an. He was uneasy and wanted to help him clean up the house.
Su Zhi saw that Shen Zifu's eyes were a little abnormal, but she still greeted herself. She thought she was also an honest person. I guess she was also afraid of Wang's daughter-in-law. The Wang family she remembered was quite frightening.
"It's still early. Let's get some bud poles and get a fence, so that we can live in a more secure way."
Shen Zigui was also very happy to see his eldest brother coming. He didn't have enough time today, and he had to wait until tomorrow to repair the house. Looking at the empty house, other people's houses had a fence, so he wanted to get one.
Most people use branches or bamboo that are not too thick in the fence. Some people use long-thorny plants, and some use bract poles and reeds. However, those things are too easy to be rotten. Generally, they need to be changed once a year, so there are few people who use them. Generally, they are only used by emergency For a fence, I chose the bract pole first. Not long ago, I just finished collecting the bract pole, and there were a lot of things.
Shen Zifu also said yes. He just wants to help his brother do some work now, otherwise he will always feel sorry for him.
"Isn't the land behind all at home? The corn poles are still there, which is also convenient to use. Just pull it back with a flatbed truck.
Shen Zifu said, and went to pull the flatbed car.
"Zi'an, you can dig a ditch here. I'll just go with my eldest brother." Shen Zigui also said and left.
"Daughter-in-law, how big do you think our yard is?"
Shen Zi'an asked Su Zhi. He was very interested. Thinking that this was his home with Su Zhi in the future, everything in front of him became good. He wanted Su Zhi to point to the ground, and then he circled it up.
Su Zhi thought that it was good in ancient times. The place in the front and back of the house was big enough that as long as she made a fence, it would be her own home. She looked back and forth and had a plan in her heart.
The place of this new home is perfect in Su Zhi's view. There is a large open space in front of it, with some depressions. Except for the grass, it is grass. Now the weather is cold, and the grass is green and yellow. It looks more desolate, but it is quite open. Further away is the mountain. To the east are the neighbors, and then the river. There is also an open space in the west, and the bamboo forest is about 100 meters away. She also looked at the back just now. It was a piece of land, a few trees at the far end, and she also saw pedestrians. Now I heard from Shen Zifu that the land was distributed to them by the Shen family.
Shen Zi'an said that the place of the tree was a river, and the pedestrians were walking on the other side of the river. It turned out that the river they passed out of the mountain, passed through the riverside village, turned a corner, and flowed to the east. Their place was surrounded by the river. The river was not a small river. If That's the main road, and you can go to the city. This is also the reason why people don't want to live on the east side of the river.
"From here to there, surround the three trees in the yard. This is the front yard. In the future, we will also surround the backyard, and it will be convenient to grow vegetables.
Su Zhi made a comparison to determine the size of the yard. She wanted to make it so big first, and then expand the yard when she built the house in the future. At that time, the house also had to be built big. This place is really not small. She thought it would be good to circle it all over. Who would think that the house in the house
"Daughter-in-law, take a break, I'm going to work."
Shen Zi'an picked up the shovel and began to dig according to the boundary drawn by Su Zhi. Su Zhi watched him dig, went into the room, put everything away, and then boiled water. The water was still in the barrel. At first glance, it had just been brought. Su Zhi felt that Shen Zi was more careful.
Boil the water and put it in the pot without scooping it out, so that it won't be cold when you drink it for a while. This was not good in ancient times. If you want to drink hot water, you have to boil it now. It's really troublesome not to have a thermos.
Shen Zi'an was strong and worked quickly. He soon dug the ditch. Shen Zifu and Shen Zigui have also pulled back several cars of the bract pole. At this time, the bract pole is also useful. If it is dried, it can burn the fire.
The three big men set up the fence together. Su Zhi also thought about it together and stopped Shen Zi'an, and the two brothers of the Shen family did not let her work.
Su Zhi had to find another job. She went to the back of the house and looked around. It was late autumn. It was not too cold to say that it was cold. The crops had been harvested, and some plants had begun to turn yellow, but there were still many tenacious vitality and still green. It didn't look desolate. Su Zhi found a A vegetable, that's like the spinach she has ever seen.
Su Zhi thought that spinach was delicious, but it was a pity that there were too few. There was no way to make it into a dish at all. It was also good to make soup. On second thought, it's better to put it in porridge.
Su Zhi is the kind of person who doesn't want to owe favors. The eldest brother and second brother of the Shen family come to help them. Although it is right for many people to be the elder brother to help the younger brother, in the case that others are far away from them, they can still come, which is obviously valuable. Besides, their time and If you want to help, you also need to pay or invite them to dinner. Brothers don't talk about money. If you don't want to give them, then invite them to dinner.
But now that I have just moved here, there is no seasoning for cooking, no oil and salt, no rice noodles, only a small bag of corn dregs.
Make porridge. The porridge with the vegetables grown by Lingquan is no worse than eating meat!
Su Zhi looked around and saw no one. She brought out the spring water, then watered some spring water to the spinach and put away the spring water. She stood up and walked a few more steps around. When she came back, she saw that the vegetable was already watery. She squeezed her lips and smiled. This feeling of harvest was really good. She could imagine The scene of hand cramps in the silver count.
Pull out the dish and wash it. The dish is not very big. It is only separated from the root without folding it. It is thrown directly into the medium-d porridge, and it can be removed in a short time.
"Brother, second brother, thank you for your hard work. I made porridge. You can eat some while resting. Zi'an, please let the eldest brother in. The water is here. Wash your hands first.
Su Zhi saw that the fence had been blocked, and even the door had been installed. She said to the three people who had stopped to put the basin of water in front of them.
Shen Zifu and Shen Zigui quickly waved his hand. They knew that Shen Zi'an didn't share much food. How could he stay with him to eat without washing his hands? They turned around and were about to leave. Shen Zi'an stopped them.
"Brother, second brother, I don't have any good food for you now. I only have thin porridge. If you don't eat it again, don't come to help me repair the house tomorrow."
Su Zhi was also persuading. The two of them turned around with some embarrassment and washed their hands and entered the house. In fact, they had smelled the fragrance for a long time, and they felt that their saliva was about to flow out. They were really ashamed, but they were also curious about what kind of porridge made by the fourth sister In fact, when they were in the Shen family, they could sometimes smell a fragrance when they went to the backyard. They were curious about what good food Shen Zi'an and others had eaten, but it was not easy to ask. For this, the Sun family also said that Shen Zi'an ate delicious food behind their backs, which made the two elders of the Shen family very dissatisfied They can't say anything, and the fragrance is not the smell of meat. Shen Zi'an said it was made porridge, and they would be skeptical.
When Shen Zifu and Shen Zigui saw the porridge served by Su Zhi, they felt that the fragrance was even stronger. They finally believed that Shen Zi'an had told the truth at the beginning.
The golden corn porridge, with emerald green spinach leaves on it, is put in a large black bowl of coarse porcelain, but it looks good. Shen Zifu and Shen Zigui drank two bowls each, but they didn't think they had drunk enough.
