040 Catch turtles in urns

More than an hour early, I finished dinner. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After it was the turn of the dishwasher, Tian Xue, cleaned the bowl and the stove, and saw Zhao Qingshan walking in with the chopped tube bones from outside.

"There's no meat in this thing, and sometimes I really don't understand what your sister thinks. Tian Xue helped Zhao Qingshan throw the bones into a cauldron filled with cold water.

"You don't need to understand. Zhao Qingshan raised his eyes and looked at the Tian scholar, walked straight to the stove, threw another piece of wood into the stove, and made the fire stronger.

Tian Xue did not refute it, but in his heart he expressed helplessness, and it was also because he did not covet someone, otherwise with such an uncle as Zhao Qingshan, the pressure was really not small.

Zhao Qingshan didn't know what Tian Xue was thinking, and after the water in the pot boiled, he followed the steps told him by his sister in advance, scooped up the bones of the tube with blood and water, cleaned it, and put it in the cold water on the side to draw it a little.

"Ru'er, the bones are out of the water. ”

"It's coming. Zhao Qingru, who was talking to Lu Yingchun in the house, hurriedly ran to the small kitchen, put the bones of the tube with good water under cold water again, then picked up the kitchen knife, patted a small piece of ginger, threw it into the pot, poured cooking wine, put in a small yarn bag containing star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and other spices, and scooped a large spoonful of sugar.

"Brother, look at the fire. When the burn rises, change to medium-low heat. Add a shallow teaspoon of salt after two hours. Then simmer until dawn with minimal residual heat. "Although it took a little longer to stew like this, the soup was definitely a thick soup, and the taste was understandable. Of course, the tube bones basically don't have any umami. Anyway, there is almost no meat in the bones, and soup is the king in winter.

After telling this, Zhao Qingru was ready to go back to the hut in the bamboo forest with Lu Yingchun.

"Xiao Ru, before eating, didn't you tell me about going to college......" On the way back to the bamboo forest, Lu Yingchun, who had long been impatient, hugged Zhao Qingru's arm and shouted.

"Shhhhh......hhh Look at your impatience. You know, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Lu Yingchun took Zhao Qingru's arm and went straight home. Who would have thought that as soon as he entered the house, he saw Zhao Xiaohua coming out of the house in a panic.

"You, why did you come back so early?" Zhao Xiaohua's eyes flickered with an obvious expression.

"I'm so tired, come back early and go to bed. ”

Lu Yingchun didn't see Zhao Xiaohua's abnormality, and with Zhao Qingru's words, he yawned big.

"I said Zhao Xiaohua, don't you go out tonight. ”

Zhao Xiaohua glanced at the house behind her, which now belonged to her alone, and said calmly: "Don't go out." What am I going out to do at night? ”

"That's good. Zhao Qingru turned around and took out a big black lock from the crossbody bag she carried, unceremoniously locked the courtyard door, and also locked the kitchen window by the way.

"Zhao Qingru, you, why are you locking the yard in such a good manner?!" Zhao Xiaohua was immediately anxious when she saw this.

"My brother said that this yard is now inhabited by our three yellow flower daughters, for safety, just in case, the doors and windows must be closed. So......" Zhao Qingru said lightly, "Don't worry, tomorrow morning, I will remember to open the courtyard door after I get up with Yingchun." Anyway, you get up late every day, so it won't affect your ability to go out. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Qingru pulled Lu Yingchun, who had been holding back his laughter, and went back to the hut directly.

"Yingchun, you said that tomorrow morning, should we come to an urn to catch turtles?!" Zhao Qingru, who returned to the hut, leaned his back against the door, and did not deliberately control the volume of his speech.

"What kind of turtle are you catching? I'm tired to death, so let's wash and sleep." Lu Yingchun yawned again, "Aren't you tired after walking so many miles today?"

"I'm not tired. I'm in great spirits today. Zhao Qingru covered her face and snickered. As for whether Zhao Xiaohua was eavesdropping outside the door, it didn't matter anymore. The important thing is how to leave the person who is inexplicably extra in Zhao Xiaohua's room, and most of them are still men. You must know that the three houses where Zhao Qingru lives now were originally lived by an old man who had lived alone for many years, and after the old man died, the house was vacant. Don't look at the vacant for many years, it is also dilapidated, but the foundation is still there. Not to mention, the fence of the courtyard is more than two meters high with white walls and black tiles.

The old man had no children, and the old man's house was owned by the village afterwards, and the original belongings of the family were also divided among the villagers. After Zhao Qingru moved in, he added some of the most basic furniture, which was nothing more than a long bench, a square stool, a wooden table, three cabinets, and three wooden beds. Originally, I thought that after I was busy harvesting the autumn rice, I would complete the other furniture. As a result, Tian Xue moved out of the house and moved to live with Zhao Qingshan, while Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun moved to the house where Tian Xue originally lived. Furniture or something, I didn't have time to add it at all.

Judging from the layout of the house, although the house where Zhao Xiaohua lives now has a window, it faces the courtyard. The kitchen window and courtyard door have been locked by Zhao Qingru. Now the only way to leave is either to leave through the window of Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun's house, or to climb over the wall, and you have to climb out of the thatched house in the backyard

But there is no ladder at home. In Zhao Xiaohua's house, there is only one square stool, one cabinet, and two wooden beds left.

If you climb the wall, you have to climb it.

If you don't climb the wall, the chances of getting caught in the urn tomorrow are really high.

Just when Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun were hiding in the house, gloating very unkindly, just a few meters away, in Zhao Xiaohua's house, there was really a good-looking Sven, who could even be said to be a talent, looking at a young man who was no more than twenty years old. But at this moment, the young man's sword eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his face was faintly displeased.

"Comrade Zhao Xiaohua, did they lock the courtyard door?"

"Then, I really don't know how the two of them came back early...... Zhao Xiaohua hurriedly said, "Actually, the two of them only come back after dark every time on weekdays." ”

Usually didn't come back so early, Zhao Xiaohua really didn't say anything wrong. If it weren't for dinner in advance today, Lu Yingchun was in a hurry to ask Zhao Qingru, these two people really didn't come back so early. In fact, outsiders came to the family, even if it was a young man, in Zhao Qingru's opinion, it was not a big deal. After all, it was only five o'clock in the evening, and the unmarried man and the unmarried woman were unmarried, if Zhao Xiaohua was making a boyfriend and girlfriend with someone normally, Zhao Qingru wouldn't even raise her eyelids, she would just treat it as if she didn't see it.

However, Zhao Xiaohua found that after Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun came back suddenly, she looked weak-hearted, and looked like she was doing something unseemly, for fear of being discovered.

Zhao Qingru was just deceiving Zhao Xiaohua, and the ultimate goal was, of course, just to lock the doors and windows for the sake of safety. Who would have thought that Zhao Qingru really cheated something.

Can she be blamed for this? No. ╮(╯_╰)╭
