Chapter 18 Neighbors
Su Fu came back early from Yao's, so he planned to go to the vegetable market to buy some meat to replenish Su Zhao's body, Fang Xing went to a meat stall, waited for the people in front of him to buy and left, stepped forward, and before he could speak, he heard someone say, "Brother Su, come and buy meat?" ā
The voice came from above her, she subconsciously looked up, and saw her left neighbor Wei Butcher standing in front of her looking at her with a smile, so she smiled back, "It's Brother Wei." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"The two of us brothers have been here for a few days, and Fang has settled down, and Ah Zhao is just when he is growing up, so he wants to make some food for him to replenish his body."
When Butcher Wei heard her say this, he chopped some ribs from the side from the knife, "The long body is the best place to cook some bone broth, take these, it can be regarded as a meeting gift from me to you." ā
Su Fu hurriedly waved his hand, "It's not easy for Brother Wei to get up early and be greedy for darkness, and the younger brother can't be greedy for Brother Wei's cheapness, how much are these ribs worth, Brother Wei said the number." ā
Butcher Wei ignored Su Fu's words, and forced the ribs to Su Fu's body, "This piece doesn't cost money, and if you buy it in the future, you will have to charge money, go back quickly, if you don't go back, someone at home will starve to death." ā
Su Fu coughed dryly, Butcher Wei was so hospitable, how could Zhou Wu be so afraid of Butcher Wei, this is a question.
Su Fu was about to excuse himself, but he heard Butcher Wei continue, "Your sister-in-law often says that I kill and create evil, let me accumulate more blessings for my children, don't shirk it, otherwise your sister-in-law will scold me." ā
Su Fu suddenly had a scene in his mind where the little lady twisted Butcher Wei's ears, and couldn't help laughing a little, seeing that he was so resolute, he accepted it, "Brother Wei can say okay, next time the little brother can't take Brother Wei's things for nothing." ā
Butcher Wei laughed twice, then asked Su Fu to go back, and Su Fu also left.
Although Su Zhao's mind is stupid, it is better than being simple, since she promised her to get along with Zhou Wu, it is much more honest than Zhou Wu's courtyard that day.
When Su Fu went to Zhou Wu's house to pick up Su Zhao again, Zhou Wu's face was much better than before.
Zhou Wu knew that Su Fu was going to Yao's today, and with a curious attitude, he entered the door with Su Fu, and saw Su Fu busy in the small kitchen, and said, "But you went in?" ā
Su Fu put the ribs into the basin and responded, "It's in." ā
Zhou Wu was originally hopeful, but when he heard Su Fu say this, his mood suddenly fell to the bottom, he privately didn't want Su Fu to work in the Yao family, which was a cannibal, but it was good, but he couldn't stop it.
Zhou Wu was distracted alone, Su Fu was busy, after adding firewood, it was considered idle, this bone broth needed to be boiled for a long time, she simply said to Zhou Wu, "If you are fine, help me watch the firewood first!" ā
Zhou Wu answered, but really stood in front of the stove, adding firewood from time to time.
Su Fu fetched water, took off the white yarn, and patted the thumb-length scar on his eyelids with water, and the scar fell down in strips.
If this white veil is around, it always attracts people's ideas, and she expected that someone would ask, so she made preparations early, so that she passed the test at Steward Yao today.
As for this scar, when she was with the man, Fanqiu had a few scars on her face to scare her, this scar was a special kind of soil, always wet and sticky, and it only took a little to easily forge a scar.
This kind of soil can be reused, and to be on the safe side, she only needs to go to Yao's to disguise it like this.
After cleaning up, she went into the small kitchen again, and saw Zhou Wu sitting in front of the fire, his originally pale face was red and red in the light of the fire, and even the flames jumped closer, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
She coughed dryly, "The fire is going to burn to the eyebrows." ā
When Zhou Wu heard this, he quickly got up and jumped, a few feet away from the stove, stretched out his hand to stroke his cheek, and said in shock, "Why didn't you say it earlier, take pity on my beautiful appearance." ā
Su Fu burst out laughing, and then said solemnly, "Scared you." ā
Zhou Wu touched his eyebrows, and when he saw that his eyebrows were still alive, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and glared at Su Fu angrily, "Isn't it fun to tease me?" ā
Su Fu nodded neatly and went to look at her pot.
Zhou Wu lost his words, slandering him in his heart, he was so good to this guy, but this person didn't know how to repay him, he was really angry.
But when he came back to his senses, his sense of touch also woke up one by one, the fragrance of bone broth penetrated into his nose one by one, it was very fragrant, and his stomach suddenly became a little hungry, Su Fu was right, he had indeed not eaten meat for a few days, and he thought about it a little.
No, it's too much.
He moved back to the small kitchen step by step, standing behind Su Fu, watching Su Fu's movements, the aroma of bone broth became stronger and stronger, intriguing, like sake, even more powerful than sake, no matter how you smell it, you can't smell it enough.
When he was deeply immersed in it, Su Fu happened to turn around and hit him.
Zhou Wu was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "I'm going back, yes, go back." ā
After speaking, he reluctantly turned around.
Su Fu shook his head helplessly, "Wait another quarter of an hour, the bone broth will be almost ready, drink a bowl and leave." ā
When the words fell, he saw Zhou Wu's face blooming, "Really? ā
She nodded, "If you're bored, just play with Ah Zhao for a while!" ā
Zhou Wu had forgotten how he slandered Su Fu in his heart, and at this time he was just waiting for his bone broth happily, no, he was happily going to have fun with Su Zhao, and by the way, he was waiting for his bone broth.
Su Fu sat alone in the small kitchen, seeing the heat on the stove, it seemed to go back to the past, when the person had a wind chill and had no taste for anything, she went to the small kitchen and cooked for him every day until he was cured.
It's just that at that time, there will be two maidservants to help her, and now, she is only herself.
She wasn't here for three years, and she didn't know how that person came over.
If the man has married a wife, will his wife be like her, and wash her hands and make soup for him?
Presumably not, although she is the county lord, her mother is not a favored princess, and the daughters of the family are much stronger than her when she takes out any of them, and this work of making soup should be handed over to the cook!
In the past few years, has he missed the soup she made?
Presumably, there is none.
When she came back to her senses, the bone broth was already fragrant, and the firewood was gradually extinguished, leaving only a few sparks, bright and dark, which did not last long.
Even firewood will be tired, once you burn yourself out, you will have no energy left, let alone a human being?
She set up the dishes and chopsticks, put two bowls on the table, and went to the main house, and saw that the two of them were playing happily in the house, so she interrupted, "The soup is in the small kitchen, you two go to drink it while it's hot, I'll go out." ā
Then he turned around, filled a big bowl of bone broth in the small kitchen, turned around and went out, knocked on the door of the neighbor on the left, and it was Sister-in-law Wei who opened the door, "Brother Su?" ā
Su Fu nodded, "Sister-in-law, is Brother Wei back?" ā
Sister-in-law Wei replied, "He just came back and is washing, is there something wrong with Brother Su?" ā
Su Fu brought the bone broth to her, and then said, "I went to the market to buy meat today, Brother Wei didn't take my money, this is the freshly cooked bone broth, give it to the eldest brother and sister-in-law to taste." ā
Sister-in-law Wei took it with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be young, this soup is very fragrant, and your cooking skills in the future are unlimited." ā
"Sister-in-law, I'll go back first." Su Fu politely said goodbye.
She returned to her yard, Zhou Wu and Su Zhao were in the small kitchen, and when she approached, she saw that Zhou Wu tasted along the edge of the bowl regardless of the heat, and only half a bowl was left.
On the contrary, Su Zhao sat on the side in an orderly manner, carefully waiting for the bone broth in the bowl to cool down, which was very different from the young man who was hungry and could only eat soil before.
Zhou Wu heard the footsteps and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw Su Fu's gaze.
However, Su Fu's face was as usual, and he said softly, "If it's not enough, it's going to be more." ā
After speaking, she took a bowl and sat next to Su Zhao, "It's not too hot, drink it while it's hot." ā
Su Zhao nodded, then picked up the spoon and gently put it into his mouth.
