Chapter 24: Sanni
There are three taels of women and children who have not gone to school, all carry their own small baskets and accompany them out of the village.
Seeing Dongping's daughter-in-law Xiaoyue, Zhang Xiu and Sanni also coming over, Xue Jian grabbed them and asked, "Sister Xiaoyue, what are you doing?"
Sanni rushed to say, "Every year at this time, everyone will go up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables to pick some mushrooms," and then spit out her tongue and smiled, "Let's see my sister make a meal for us at night."
"If Xuejian is a novice, Xiaoyue will also have to go for a meal." Xiaoyue quickly said.
"If I don't say too much, I was appointed to make a living, but it's a loss." Xue saw that her mouth was disgusted, but her eyes were full of smiles.
Since I stopped fishing, my family has no money to make a living. Finally, I know that Erniang and Si Niang, who save money to live, and Zhou Bo's leg injury, although I don't need to spend medical expenses, I still need food supplements in order to keep him up as soon as possible. Now I can't wait to divide a penny into two penny.
Bai Yitian and his party will bring something with them every time they come. Sometimes it is said that Bai Zhixian supports Sanlang's teaching pen, ink, paper and sometimes it is said that Mrs. Bai gave a thin silk for Er Niang sisters to make spring shirts. Sometimes they simply come here with beef, sheep and chicken, saying that their cook is not as good as Xue Jian and let Xue Jian make it for herself. I have eaten.
Although the excuses are different, Zhou Bo and Er Niang are both in their hearts. Baizhi County has always been honest, and his family only relies on his salary of 45 taels a year for a living. However, he has become a confidant. This fate of meeting and knowing each other is even more precious.
The snow looks at the direction of Daqing Mountain. If you walk there, it will take four hours to come back and return in the afternoon.
When it comes to wild vegetables, there are also in the village. It seems that this is mainly for picking mountain mushrooms. Most people in Pingshan Village still have the habit of eating two meals a day, but the Zhou family has always had three meals. Sanni understood what she meant and patted her back basket and said, "My mother steamed bean sprout omelet, and I also brought it to Xiaoyue and Xiuer."
Zhao Xiaoyue and Zhang Xiu are a little in awe of Zhou Bo, and there is a son of a county magistrate like Bai Yitian, and they are finally a little timid.
Bai Yitian then pushed Zhou Bo to see the duck and walked away.
The edge of the rice field really attracted the attention of the villagers because of the eye-catching nets and several duck houses. Today, on the first day, a batch of ducklings were released into the field. Nearby, they couldn't help putting down the farm work in their hands and came to watch the fun.
Some people secretly laugh at the Zhou family's nonsense, some feel fresh and come to watch the doorway, but Bai Yitian rarely observes carefully.
Zhao Xiaoyue said with a smile, "Your family is full of fresh food. If it makes me eat well, I can go there every day to get some food!"
Zhang Xiu also whispered, "A few days ago, I just sent some wild vegetables and exchanged some fragrant and big wild vegetable buns. My father said that this business is hard to get!"
All four laughed.
After a few jokes, the three of them said goodbye to Xuejian and wanted to walk to Daqing Mountain. But she was stopped by Xuejian, and her eyes slipped and said, "It's just usual. Today, there happens to be ready-made labor. You might as well beg Master Bai to drive you there."
Xiaoyue and Zhang Xiu naturally shirked. Sanni learned from Xuejian and did not beg Bai Yitian, but went straight to find it.
Xue Jian knew that even if they went up the mountain, they were only in a crowded place at the foot of the mountain, so she was relieved. He also told Luo Zhiqiang to stay away from the bee box, and the three of them agreed.
"Brother, can I trouble you with something?" As soon as she walked to the river, Sanni said to her silent back.
turned around, but he didn't say anything and said with a smile, "It turned out to be Sanni. What's the matter?"
"I'm sorry, I've identified the wrong person, but it's okay to be speechless," Sanni said with a smile, "Sister Xiaoyue and I are going to pick some mushrooms at the foot of the mountain. I want to trouble the two brothers to drive a car."
As soon as he nods his head, he suddenly remembered something and touched his head and said shyly, "Seni, I have to accompany Wu Niang Liulang to fish and shrimp. I'm very busy. Why don't I let Wuwuwu send you go?"
Who knew that he was fishing with Wuniang Liulang and others. Hearing the silent words, he snorted coldly in his nose and ignored him.
Xiaoyue pretended not to see or hear it, and carefully looked at the river under her feet.
"Cough!" He coughed a few times without saying a word.
"Do you have a bad throat? Would you like some water?" Sanni looked at her kettle and thought about it.
I didn't receive the water and glanced at it. "My throat is not uncomfortable, and if I want to drink water, I will go back to drink it."
"That's it." Sanni is a little puzzled about not saying a word.
"Do you still want to go to the bottom of the mountain to pick mushrooms?" Without saying anything, he could hear the anger in his heart.
"Of course I'm going." Sanni took it for granted. These two people are weird and don't know what they are doing.
"Then Sanni and I will wait for you here. Thank you, brother." Xiaoyue turned back to Zhou's house with a cold face, expected that he would go back to drive the car and hurriedly said a few polite words. She has been there. Looking at the spring light, she also smiled kindly.
Sanni shook her head: "These two are fooling around every day, and I don't know what to do today." After careful calculation, in fact, I have never seen these two brothers. Although they don't match their names and their mouths are surprisingly broken, they have never blushed and quarreled.
It's okay not to listen to her. Hearing Sanni's words so plainly, Xiaoyue was depressed and depressed, but it was difficult to say, so she had to laugh and pass away.
"Sanni, you are really," he blurted out for a moment, and then shook his hand and went to Niang Liulang again.
"What's wrong with me?" Sanni asked Xiaoyue curiously.
Xiaoyue suddenly felt her face as hot. Seeing her tilted her head and look innocent, she couldn't help smiling and said, "You're fine. Let's go to the roadside and wait."
"Good, good." Sanni still didn't react.
Xiaoyue shook her head with a smile and changed the topic, "We Sanni will be in time this year, right?"
Sanni lowered her head shyly and said, "That's right."
"After the ceremony, we San Nicole will be allowed to do it." Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows.
The tide red climbed up Sanni's cheek decisively. She lowered her head and said, "Sister-in-law, Sanni won't come out with you in the future."
Xiaoyue said slowly, "Don't you come out with your sister-in-law? Who will help you choose a good person?
"sister-in-law..."
After lunch, Bai Yitian and Zhou Bo entered the study and muttered, and Xue Jian called Liulang over.
"Today, Liulang has helped the family a lot. After all, he is a young man, and he is indeed a man!"
Wuniang and Liulang are both super active children. In the morning, they caught small fish and shrimp in the shallow water with the help of speechless. In addition to throwing them into the rice field, they also brought home some slightly larger ones. At noon, they let Xuejian stew a pot of small miscellaneous fish. Unfortunately, there were no cakes. How fragrant it was.
Being praised by the people around his eldest brother, Liulang couldn't hide his pride. In the past, when he ran in and ran out, the second sister always stared coldly. Although she didn't say anything, she felt uncomfortable. Xuejian's words were equivalent to the eldest brother's words, and Liulang's face glowed.
Xuejian thought in private that Liulang was actually just a child, and she did not have the concept of a direct concubine. As a child, praise is the best way.
It's a pity that Er Niang's views on Sanlang Liulang could not be changed for a while.
Liulang and Wu Niang did help the family today, and they can also take care of the ducks in the rice field in the future. It's always right to praise them.
"Liulang, the ducks at home have also benefited you. When you go back, you will lay more duck eggs. Xuejian will make some delicious food for everyone to taste, so that everyone will know Liulang's credit."
After all, Liulang was a little embarrassed and whispered, "There is still the credit of the fifth sister."
"After all, it's justice!" Xue Jian gave a thumbs up.
Liulang patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, big brother. This work will be handed over to me and my fifth sister in the future!"
Because they took the carriage, Sanni and the others picked back fresh mountain mushrooms before noon. Knowing that there were many families in Zhou, he thanked him for driving, so Xiaoyue and Zhang Xiu only left half, and the rest were sent to the Zhou family.
In order to thank Bai Yitian for sending ducks, Xue Jian also began to get into the kitchen in the afternoon. Aunt Zhou and Aunt Du came to help, and even Sanni happily took the initiative to help.
Everyone knows that there is fresh food again today.
Xue Jianxian personally cut the tofu into small pieces and hollowed out the center. Chop the washed and soaked mushrooms, chop the pickled vegetables, add seasonings and starch and mix well to make the filling. Put the filling in the center of the tofu, put it on a plate, steam it in the evening, drizzle it with sesame oil, and you can eat it.
There are many people in my family. After making this kind of tofu box, I made it for more than an hour, and Xuejian's arms were too tired to straighten up.
Then ask Aunt Zhou to chop the pork leg into minced meat, and Sanni picks and washes the picked shepherd's purse.
Sanni put an appropriate amount of water, a small amount of salt and a few drops of oil into the cauldron to boil, put the cleaned shepherd's purse and boil it, take it out and put it into the cold water, take out the shepherd's purse put in the cold water, squeeze it out of it, and crush it.
Xuejian put the chopped shepherd's purse and minced meat into a bowl, add an appropriate amount of salt, oil, starch, pour in an appropriate amount of broth, mix well, and then grab it by hand to make small balls.
An appropriate amount of water has been put into the pot and boiled. Aunt Du put the prepared balls into the pot one by one until they are cooked.
These two highlights have been completed, and the next one will be much easier.
Use the shredded fern, add salt, chopped green onion, garlic, sesame oil and chili oil and mix well. Delicious and refreshing, fresh and pleasant.
The last side dish is scrambled eggs with thorny sprouts: stir-fry the eggs, put the thorn sprouts into the pot, add salt, stir-fry the chopped green onion until it is medium-cooked, and then put the scrambled eggs into the pan for a little. It is bright in color and delicious. It tastes delicious. I was drooling, and Aunt Zhou kept sighing. Is this really a thorny bud?
For the rest of this soup, Xuejian also worked hard,
Aun aunt Zhou has washed the mountain mushrooms clean.
Xuejian cut the little meat left in the house into cubes and slices at will, and mix well with salt and other seasonings.
Find a large bowl to put the mountain mushrooms in, press it a little, and put it flat. Then cover the meat on the mushrooms. The big pot has already been prepared. Put the bowl into the pot, cover it and start steaming for about half an hour, and then add water to the bowl.
When it came out of the pot, I asked Sanni to taste it. Sanni tasted a spoonful, and her eyes narrowed into a seam. While inhaling hot, she nodded repeatedly and said, "Delicious, delicious!"
Xue smiled, and the mushroom itself is delicious enough. Now the meat flavor is even more delicious. Finally, sprinkle chopped green onions, put them in a pot, and eat!
