Chapter 9: Enlightenment

"Auntie! What are you doing here? Just as Qin Ruwei was thinking wildly, a girl as crisp as a silver bell rang, and the conversation in the room stopped suddenly, and there was no sound again.

Qin Ruwei turned her head to look over, and saw a girl about twelve years old standing at the door of the stove room, she was wearing a set of half-used dresses in autumn fragrance, her white little face did not have any flaws, her hair was combed into five braids, her facial features were exquisite, she was obviously a beauty, it was the eldest daughter of Qin Da Niu and Gu, Qin Erniang.

She was holding a bundle of dry firewood in her hand, her mouth pursed slightly, and she was looking at Qin Ruwei.

Qin Da Niu also came out of the house, rubbed his hands and looked at Qin Ruwei, and said, "Sister, you're back, are you freezing?" Your body is not yet complete, so go back to the house carefully and rest. ”

"Big brother, I heard Sanniang say that my sister-in-law is not comfortable in front of the door, but what's wrong?" Qin Ruwei pressed the question in her heart and asked with concern.

Qin Daniu sighed and said, "It's not the case, she's just a pan-lazy disease." ”

The Gu family inside listened to it and said in a loud voice: "I'm lazy, I'm lazy, you old Qin family boys and girls are all hardworking, I'm sick and dying, and I'm going to get up to cook rice and water for your old men and aunts, you wait, I'll get up, die early!" ”

Qin Daniu's face was embarrassed.

Qin Ruwei said busily: "Big brother, you go and let my sister-in-law lie down, now my body is also a lot better, and it is also a good thing to move my muscles and bones, I'll go cook!" With that, he walked to the stove room.

The houses of Shilitunzi are all white walls and gray tiles, some of which are like the modern Jiangxi area, and the structure is similar to the courtyard houses in Beijing. The houses here are all particular about the main house, with the east and west wings and a patio, and the main house is occupied by the highest person in the family. The elders of the old Qin family have all gone, and Qin Daniu and his family have the highest status, so they also live in the main house, while Qin Ruwei lives alone in the east chamber, Qin Yi occupies the west chamber, and the two sisters also occupy a room.

The stove room was built in the northwest corner, and a hall was built next to the stove room, which was used as a dining room, and the family usually ate in the dining room, because there were no elders, and there was no rule of dividing the table.

There were two stoves in the stove room, one large and one small, and several large and small clay pots were placed on the side of the stove, and while the rice was cooked, the water was put on the side, and when the rice was cooked, the hot water for eating or washing was boiled.

Qin Ruwei of the deity can not cook, Qin Ruwei didn't think much about it, in modern times, because her parents died when she was a child, and she grew up with her grandmother, Qin Ruwei had already learned **, so she also cooked good food.

Rolling up her sleeves, Qin Ruwei quickly opened the rice jar and scooped up enough rice for the family to eat, skillfully washed the rice, put it in the pot, set up firewood to start the fire, washed the sweet potatoes and chopped them into the simmer together.

The current old Qin family is not better than when Qin's father was alive, and the Qin family's rice is the same as many families in this ten miles of tunzi, and it is to be stewed with sweet potatoes, such a meal can be eaten and full, and it can also save some grain and rice. No one has the luxury of eating white rice every day.

After simmering the rice, Qin Ruwei quickly chose the vegetables again, dug out three or four of the potatoes buried in the sand pile in the corner of the kitchen, peeled and shredded, cut the knife on the cutting board, made an aggressive sound, and cut the two green and red peppers into shreds and put them together for later use.

After thinking about it, both of them are vegetarian dishes, and it is noon, the man must be full before he has the strength to go to the ground, Qin Ruwei grabbed a handful of sauerkraut from the urn and washed it, cut it evenly, and cut a few slices of Gu's bacon a few days ago, which burned the small pot, put oil on it, threw down a handful of garlic, and with a snort, Qin Ruwei was not afraid, she put the bacon in it and stir-fried it, and added sauerkraut to stew.

She was busy in front of the stove at this time, and she didn't see Qin Erniang holding a large bundle of firewood and watching her movements dumbfounded.

It's amazing, my aunt is enlightened!
