Chapter 79: Little Five's Steamed Buns
Huaxi just flowed through the valley under the thatched house, and it was very convenient to go to the river to wash something or something, so Xing Youliang didn't store much water at home. As soon as he got home, he took his sister to the secret place to pick vegetables.
"Little sister, what do you want to eat today?"
Xing Youyou looked at the vegetable field in front of her, a green one, with cabbage, radish, potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, and tomatoes, but she couldn't choose one. Because there is no oil, the eldest brother is almost the same as boiled, if you raise a pig, raise fat, take out the fat during the New Year, boil it all into oil, want to fry, fry, stew, braised can be.
Think about it for two years, how much she wants braised fish and hot pot, when she was in the reincarnation view, the master was poor, and every time she wanted to open meat, she went up the mountain and down the river to catch it. Every time she watched the master and rhubarb eat with relish, it was when she was the happiest, but now,,,
Xing Youliang looked at his sister in a daze and didn't know what she was thinking, so he picked a cabbage that had been wrapped well, picked up the knife in his hand and cut it down.
"Let's stir-fry some cabbage tonight and bake two sweet potatoes. ”
Hearing the roasted sweet potato, Xing Youyou came back to his senses, and looked at the appearance of the eldest brother buried in the ground digging sweet potatoes, and a satisfied look finally appeared on his face.
"The small, the big brother picks the small. ”
This roasted sweet potato is delicious only if it is slender and long, if it is too big, the skin will be pasted off, but the inside is still raw.
"It's a good thing to pick the small ones, they haven't grown up yet, and we'll dig them out when they're all grown up. "Xing Youliang is busy with the work in his hands, and he doesn't have to look back to know that his little sister must be pouting.
How frugal his eldest brother usually is, Xing Youyou also knows, there is never anything wasted at home, and the cabbage will definitely be cooked and eaten for rhubarb.
"Oh well. Xing Youliang turned his head after finishing the work in his hand, and sure enough, he saw his little sister pouting, and quickly washed his hands in the pool, and rubbed his pigtails, and saw that his picky sister smiled suddenly, if she had a tail, it should be similar to the performance of rhubarb.
"You're just picky. Xing Youliang complained, while picking up his sister out of the secret realm, and after explaining that Xing Youqian had done a good job, he took his sister to the river to wash vegetables.
Of course, Xing Youliang will not let his sister get close to the river, although the river is much narrower than in previous years, but her sister is too small, and she can't stand with the light current.
"Just stand on the sidelines, don't come over and know?"
Standing by the river, Xing Youyou was bored, and saw a figure walking towards this side from a distance, the shadow was getting closer and closer, it seemed to be a teenager, did he come up the mountain to dig wild vegetables?
When the man approached, he stopped, and Xing Youyou, thinking that he was in his way, quickly turned sideways and let him pass, but the man did not move.
Before Xing Youyou met, the man looked at his motionless appearance, raised his head and looked at his front curiously, only to see that this person's long hair was greasy into strips, half of his face was covered, and he couldn't see his face clearly, his face was black, because the dry dander was turned on it.
"Little Fifth Brother?"
Xiao Wu didn't expect that the little girl in front of him with big eyes and a delicate face did not avoid him at all, and her eyes looking at him were clear and translucent, full of curiosity. He quickly took out the steamed bun in his pocket and put it in the hand of the little girl in front of him, and then turned around and walked away like the wind, leaving Xing Youyou standing on the road with a question mark on his face.
"Big Brother~"
Xing Youliang stood up and saw his little sister holding a steamed bun in her little hand and looking at the front in a daze. He shifted his gaze to the side, only to see a figure in front of him walking forward quickly.
"Little Fifth Brother, don't go. Xing Youliang hurriedly stepped forward to stop Xiao Wu,
"We can't accept this steamed bun. "Xing Youliang always remembered that his father told him that Xiao Wu was a hard-working child and wanted to help him more, how could he accept the steamed buns he saved from his mouth at this time.
Although he said this, Xiao Wu never accepted the steamed bun in front of him, and stubbornly wanted to escape, but Xing Youliang hurriedly grabbed him and took him to his home.
"Little Fifth Brother, I'm going to cook, you can help me light the fire. “
Xing Youliang was worried that this little five would run away again when he wasn't paying attention, so he hurriedly found him some work. Soon, the meal was ready, the fragrance wafted out far away, and Xing Youqian, who had long been unable to sit still in the bedroom, smelled the smell and ran into the kitchen, followed by the rhubarb, which had grown up.
"Big brother, is there a baked sweet potato today?"
Xing Youliang was a little funny, "Do you have a dog nose like rhubarb?"
The dishes and chopsticks were set on the table, and Xiao Wu, who was not moving like a mountain, sat on the stool.
"Why are you like a toad, pinch and jump, and hurry up to sit and eat. “
Xiao Wu looked at the table in front of him with a plate of fried cabbage, two roasted sweet potatoes, four bowls of thickly boiled porridge, the rice porridge was mixed with cornmeal and yellow-green cabbage leaves, and in the middle was a steamed bun he brought. Xing Youliang grabbed the steamed bun and divided it into four parts, one of which was placed in his bowl.
"I, I've eaten. ”
Seeing that this stuffy man spoke, Xing Youqian was shocked,
"Big brother, I thought he was dumb. After saying that, he broke half a roasted sweet potato, and took a bite of it, so hot that his mouth trembled.
"It's okay if you've eaten it, if we eat your steamed buns, you can eat us?"
"Oh no, I ate your fish last time. “
Xing Youyou knew in his heart, I see, so I came over with my steamed bun today, but why is this person's personality so awkward,
"My brother doesn't eat it, and we don't eat it either. “
Xing Youyou threatened him, she couldn't think of a good way for this kind of person, so she could only play a scoundrel. What I didn't expect was that this method was surprisingly good. But the strange thing is that this person does not sit on the table, but squats to the side with a bowl.
"Little Fifth Brother, you come up to the table to eat. ”
"Not used to it. ”
Xing Youliang remembered that Xiao Chuan told him last time that these five families were empty, but I was afraid that they usually ate like this, and there was no family to eat with him. After thinking about it, he no longer forced him to eat on the table, and took half a sweet potato and put it in his bowl.
Xiao Wu looked at the bowl full of food and was a little moved, he hadn't eaten with others for a long time, since he escaped from that house, he had always been alone, if it weren't for Captain Chen who asked him to herd sheep on the mountain to earn work, I was afraid that he would have starved to death.
