Chapter 217: Chicken Noodle Soup

When Huanxi arrived, it was already afternoon, and Ruan Guoxing had already finished work, so he simply started cooking dinner in the thatched hut.

The kitchen was behind a thatched hut, and out of politeness, Joy didn't probe his head. That's why when the meal was served, she was stunned.

On the table are three bowls of sorghum rice porridge with clear soup and little water, a small plate of mustard in the middle, and the rest ...... Nope.

Ruan Guoxing was a little embarrassed and said: "That's the condition here, there is no fine grain at all, you can take care of it." ”

He pointed to the small plate of mustard in the middle and said, "You try this, there is a saline-alkali field behind Liushu Village, and it took me some effort to get the seeds of mustard." Home-grown, not to mention the side but fresh enough. ”

Huanxi took a piece and tasted it, and it tasted really good.

Just looking at the three bowls of sorghum rice porridge, she said with some unpleasantness in her heart: "I came here this time and brought a lot of things, and I will show them to my uncle and aunt later." ”

Before she came, she deliberately carried a hemp bag, the kind that can hold two hundred catties of rice, and put a bed of cotton bedding and two cotton jackets in it, as well as some food and some Chinese patent medicine.

When she came out of the house, she brought some cotton samples, and when she arrived in Yunnan, she used her golden finger to conjure up a large amount of cotton, spent money to buy some homespun cloth in the countryside, and then found a tailor to make a quilt and cotton jacket.

In contrast, it is easier to carry the food sample.

Seeing that Huanxi actually carried such a big bag of things, Ruan Guoxing was stunned, and said for a long time: "...... You've got a heart. ”

Huanxi handed over another letter, "This is the letter from my beloved sister to you. ”

Ruan Guoxing seemed to want to see it now, but after hesitating for a moment, he carefully hid it.

Huanxi has been climbing mountains and wading through rivers for most of the day today, so she will be very tired, seeing her tiredness, Ruan Guoxing made a bed on the other side of the thatched hut, and let her sleep first after washing.

- At this time, there is no way to pay attention to it. Fortunately, the thatched hut looks like one room from the outside, but the inside is divided into two, and it is the living room outside that Huanxi is sleeping in now.

Seeing that the little girl was asleep, Ruan Guoxing grabbed his wife's hand and whispered, "You heard it, we have a good heart." Although life was not as rich as before, her son-in-law was kind to her, and we had two grandchildren. ”

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Over the years, what he was most worried about was his daughter. When his wife made that kind of decision, she did not hesitate to kneel down and beg Song Baojia to take her beloved away, but he actually disagreed.

He knows what his wife has done, although Song Baojia does not look like a despicable person, but he knows people and faces but does not know his heart, who knows if the other party will hate what his wife once said, so he is unwilling to treat his beloved well?

Rather than this, it is better to be a family, no matter how hard it is, at least to be reunited.

It's a pity that I was in prison at that time, and I didn't know what was going on outside. What's more, the wife's decision is already the best at the moment, otherwise the daughter will also be ......

Fortunately, his wife's desperate entrustment did not meet anyone, and if his wife was sober now, I am afraid that she would be gratified.

Huang Shumin seemed to sense her husband's emotions, stretched out her other hand and grabbed his hand, with a smile on her face, and said softly: "...... The heart is good. ”

Ruan Guoxing suddenly burst into tears, he wanted his wife's illness to be cured, but he felt sorry for her experience, thinking that this might be the best. Otherwise, when I wake up and think of those encounters, with my wife's heart, I am afraid that she will not want to live at all.

Sighing, he took out his daughter's letter and read it softly to his wife.

Of course, Huanxi did not know this, but the next day she got up early in the morning, and then began to run around the village, and when she was done, she went up to the mountains to hunt.

Don't look at the Six Trees Village in the mountain col, but as far as the joy is concerned, this mountain is a little ...... Barren. She looked around, except for some ordinary herbs, precious ones such as ginseng and spiritual wisdom were nowhere to be seen, not even a seedling, but there were traces of mushrooms.

In addition, there were very few prey, and it took a lot of effort for Huanxi to find only one pheasant, which was still not very fat.

Ruan Guoxing woke up to the smell of chicken soup, he put on his coat and walked to the kitchen at the back of the house, and saw Huanxi under the noodles, and the pot with a gurgling sound on the stove on one side was the source of the fragrance.

- It is said that it is a pot, but it is actually a crockpot with a notch.

Huanxi scooped up the noodles with the lower number and said to Ruan Guoxing: "Uncle, I'll go out and buy you an iron pot later." ”

Not to mention, it is too troublesome to not have an iron pot in the kitchen that can stir-fry.

Ruan Guoxing thought about it and didn't refuse, mainly because he couldn't refuse. These crockpots are unused and can be broken if you are not careful. However, this thing is not something that can be obtained in a while, and there are several times when they can't cook, so the couple can only cook some clear soup with mussel shells, and the staple food can only eat baked white potatoes.

The two of them are not young, not to mention that the baked white potatoes are unpalatable and choking, and the anger is too heavy, heartburn is still a trivial matter, so they are afraid of encountering the embarrassing thing of constipation.

"By the way, where did this chicken come from?" said Ruan Guoxing.

When he first came here, he had also thought about raising two chickens, but although the people in this village did not have a clear understanding of their identity as prisoners of re-education through labor, their xenophobia against outsiders was not fake.

Therefore, if a child comes to steal chickens or eggs, the adults here may beat and scold the child when they close the door, but it is definitely protective to the outside.

After a few times, he also stopped thinking about raising chickens. Therefore, don't talk about chickens at home, there is not even an egg.

"I went up the hill and caught two pheasants. As he spoke, Huanxi had already filled a big bowl of chicken soup, put two large chicken legs in it, scooped the cooked noodles into the chicken soup, handed them to Ruan Guoxing, and said, "Is my aunt awake? ”

- One of the pheasants was naturally conjured by her golden finger, who made the one she caught too thin.

The chicken conjured up with the golden finger is jet black, but fortunately, there is a breed called black chicken in the chicken, so it can fool the past. As for whether there is a breed of black chicken among the pheasants, it is not Huanxi to know.

Ruan Guoxing was stunned for a moment, and he was not polite, he took the chicken noodle soup and ate it.

Not to mention, he hasn't eaten meat in the past few years, and he has almost forgotten the taste of meat, which will not be able to resist this temptation at all.

"I'll take the noodles, if you want to buy a pot, it's too early. After a pause, Ruan Guoxing asked again: "By the way, Huanxi, have you eaten it yourself?"

"I've eaten it. Huanxi nodded, and said, "Then I'll set off to buy a pot in the county seat." ”

After the village of six trees, the county seat where the village of six trees is located is not much better, Huanxi found the supply and marketing cooperatives to ask, there is no iron pot, and then it took a lot of effort to find an old iron pot, which is big and heavy and very dirty, but it is cheaper, and it only cost twenty-one yuan to buy it.
