Chapter 42: Cousins

In the outhouse, Guan Xiaomei was using her hand as a knife, tearing the wild vegetables dug in the field and pouring them into the boiling corn porridge in the big iron pot.

Guan Ping'an ran in, didn't care about speaking, and first put the cleaned kitchen knife on the wooden pier where the vegetables were chopped.

"Why did the third aunt ask you to send a kitchen knife? She doesn't worry about you getting hurt?"

Guan Ping'an listened to Guan Xiaomei's sour words, and suddenly realized that the other party had misunderstood that her mother brought a kitchen knife to cut potato cubes today?

She hurriedly said vaguely, "My mother is worried that she won't be able to catch up." Eldest sister, there are no sweet potatoes today?"

"Snort. Guan Xiaomei rolled her eyes, "You haven't eaten enough rotten sweet potatoes?"

Guan Ping'an frowned, he really didn't want to tell her that there were hares in the willow basket. There are always some people in this world who like to speak with thorns.

But who is used to her?

But now that she doesn't kill and burn it, according to her grandmother's behavior, she will definitely have to pickle half of it when she comes back. Then it's not that her father and brother can't eat a few bites.

If the big guy doesn't live in a yard, or she eats alone and is worried about being smelled, she really wants to throw it away in her mood at the moment, and she won't give this dead girl a mouthful of soup.

Seeing that she had a knife, Guan Xiaolan took out the radish pickles and sauerkraut leaves from the cupboard, and while cutting them into shreds, she didn't forget to say, "Come here, I'll give you a taste of shredded radish." ”

Guan Xiaomei sneered, "You're a good person!"

Guan Xiaolan smiled disapprovingly and motioned for Guan Ping'an to come over. She still likes this little cousin very much, she is well-behaved and sensible, and she has a very good heart.

If it weren't for her, my sister would have died a long time ago.

Guan Ping'an rolled his eyes and beckoned to Guan Xiaolan, "Second sister, come here, I'll show you something good." ”

"What?"

"Come here. Guan Ping'an was paying attention to Guan Xiaomei out of the corner of his eyes, so he didn't believe you could hold it!" ”

Guan Xiaolan came to her with a kitchen knife and squatted down, and when she saw that the wild vegetables on the willow basket were still mixed with weeds, she immediately laughed, "Why do you mix the grass in?"

Guan Ping'an smiled mysteriously, took out the wild vegetables and weeds, revealing the trapped hare, and without waiting for her to speak, Guan Xiaomei immediately ran to cover the door.

Guan Xiaolan asked in surprise, "Where did you come from?"

Guan Xiaomei, who ran back, stretched out her hand to push the switch Xiaolan, glared at her, and said in a low voice, "Where did you come from, can she steal it at such a young age?"

"I picked it up. Guan Ping'an hurriedly moved to the side, "Sister, come on, hurry up and burn it, it's not good if someone comes over and sees it late." ”

"Yes, you have to burn it early, and you can smell it when there are more people after work. Guan Xiaomei snatched the knife from Guan Xiaolan's hand with one hand, "I'll come here, you go and wash that pot." ”

Guan Ping'an clapped his little hands with satisfaction, and pulled Guan Xiaolan to the stove. When her grandmother asked, she would be able to say that the eldest sister was in charge.

Eating her meat and being scolded, and it doesn't hurt or itch, it's still more disadvantageous. Otherwise, let the eldest lady beat her again.

The dead girl is fat, and she dares to burn them all without waiting for her three precious eggs to come back at night?

Guan Ping'an smiled slyly, while secretly wondering if the elders asked, where should they find it?

Even if Guan Ping'an doesn't like this lobby sister, I have to say that the other party really wants to do one thing with his heart, and his hands and feet are really sharp.

I saw that she played with the kitchen knife much faster than usual, and the peeling was even more exerting her strength to eat milk, and the green tendons in her neck were angry, and she was as desperate as she could to chop up the meat......

Guan Ping'an glanced around and asked curiously, "Second sister, what about the third sister?"

"She's going to run out to play when she's done with her work, and she'll come back when it's time to eat. Let's not play with her, and we won't give her the meat to eat. ”

After these time of contact, Guan Ping'an has a good impression of this second sister.

Especially every time she talks to her younger siblings, she is softly coaxing children, and she has never seen her compete with Guan Xiaomei, who is older than her.

It's very eldest sister's style.

At the age of 10 or 11, I should have arrived at my mother-in-law's house, right? Why didn't I hear my family mention the marriage between the two of them?

As soon as Guan Xiaomei put down the rabbit skin, Guan Ping'an immediately wrapped it in a ball of leaves. The meat can't be opened at home, but the fur has to be hers.

"What are you doing? ”

Guan Xiaozhu pulled her again and again, "Okay, let's hurry up and eat the roast meat." Even if you give us milk, it won't fall into your hands, why do you care so much. ”

Guan Ping'an shook his fingers when he heard this, and then laughed silently. No wonder they all say that if there is a mother, there must be a daughter, which is silent, and it is quite like her second mother, but she doesn't know whether she is hypocritical or true and pure.

"You're a good person!"

"Sister, chop a small piece. ”

"I still need you to teach, mind yourself. Did Sanya ask you to help her work again, and she ran out to play by herself, right?"

A pot full of potatoes, no, and rabbit meat, a pot of potato stewed rabbit meat burned with the firewood, and soon the room was filled with a burst of meat aroma.

Guan Xiaomei took a pair of long chopsticks and lifted the lid of the pot and poked it, put the head of the chopsticks in her mouth and chewed it, and said vaguely after putting the lid on, "We have to wait." ”

Guan Xiaolan glanced at her amusedly, swallowed her saliva, lowered her head and pulled the bellows at an accelerated speed.

"It smells so good. Guan Xiaomei smashed her mouth with an intoxicated expression, "It would be nice if I could eat meat every day." ”

"Haha...... You think beautifully. Guan Xiaolan glanced at Guan Ping'an beside her, "An An, wait a little longer, you can eat it when it's fully cooked." ”

Hearing what they said, Guan Ping'an felt more and more hungry, responded with a hello, got up and left the outhouse and came to the backyard.

There is no bamboo in the north, but there is a pile of branches and poles next to the firewood stack, and a black tarpaulin is covered with it.

In my memory, these are all kept by the family to repair the yard fence, and to build shelves for the vegetable garden, such as cucumbers and kidney beans.

Guan Ping'an approached there and walked some way through it, intending to use these tree poles to separate the black soil in the small gourd. For example, chicken pen.

It is impossible for her to feed the pheasants every day, but she can plant Chinese cabbage and wild vegetables in a small circle, cut the pheasant's wings, and then circle it in, and when it is hungry, it will eat.

Then she ran to the utility room and, at the risk of her grandmother's curse, took two baskets, a basket, and, most inconspicuously, a large handful of straw ropes.

Although there are a lot of baskets, dustpans, baskets, baskets and so on, there are less than two or three, ordinary people may mistakenly think that they are mistaken.

But her grandmother is not an ordinary person, she remembers a pair of straw sandals clearly, not to mention such a big thing, but anything that can be exchanged for money and things, she has the best memory.

But what can I do, I can only borrow it first.

Guan Ping'an is not weak at all, a rabbit is enough to offset these things, and who knows if she took it?
