Chapter 324: The Beginning of the Journey to Rescue the Bamboo Horse (18)
Seeing off Aunt Liutang, Shi Lan looked at the sky and went to the kitchen. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Aunt Wang was picking the greens to be made at night, Shi Lan pushed Aunt Wang away, put the little cabbage she had made aside, and asked her to help herself wash the rice that had just been beaten down and had just been peeled, she took a piece of winter melon herself, dug out the gourd inside, disposed of the edge smooth, and used the tip of the knife to gently and shallowly depict the skin of the winter melon for a while, and then took off the skin on it, revealing a very delicate pattern on it.
When Aunt Wang saw Shi Lan's actions, her mouth grew in shock.
"Madam, your technique is so neat, haven't you ever learned it?"
Shi Lan glanced at her and continued to cut the edges into zigzags, "It's just standing by and watching people do it." ”
Aunt Wang praised, "I've seen it and done it so finely, if I really learned it, I don't know what to do." ”
Shi Lan smiled dumbly, this Aunt Wang is wrong, the reason why she can carve it well is because she has practiced swordsmanship, although she has not moved her hands again when she came here, but she still feels it, and this trick is not cumbersome, compared to the food made of sweet fruits in the past, she immediately had to enter the swill bucket.
Put the carved winter melon in boiling water and blanch it half-cooked, and when Aunt Wang put the rice in the pot to boil, she put lotus seeds, yams, mushrooms and other things in the winter melon, added some clear soup, put a little salt, and put it on the top to steam.
Then I washed two verdant cucumbers, cut them into long thin slices, rolled them into rolls, mixed the sauce with them, and set them aside.
I also made vegetarian balls with tofu, a small dish of fungus and cabbage, and a plate of fried shredded beans.
At this time, the sun was already in the west, and Mo Yun came back from outside with a happy face.
Shi Lan heard the movement and came out, just in time to see Zhou Yuxiu, who was an eyesore.
Shi Lan didn't bother to pay attention to her, so she squeezed her away and followed Mo Yun into the house.
Aunt Wang saw that Zhou Yuxiu was squeezed out, obviously her eyes were red, but she still stubbornly followed the house and shook her head.
This person, if he drills the tip of the horns, it is useless to persuade anyone, only when he is taught a lesson and knows that it hurts, he will understand.
The dishes carefully prepared by Shi Lan were served, and Mo Yun raised his eyebrows when he saw the dishes that were different from the past.
Shi Lan's face was a little red, but she pretended to have nothing to do and took the cucumber rolls moistened by the seasoning sauce, "Go out for an afternoon and eat some refreshing moisturizing mouth." ”
Mo Yun smiled and put it in his mouth, his teeth clenched, making a crisp sound, even if he didn't eat it, he could feel the crispness of the cucumber.
"Yes, it tastes great, just like the noodles I ate at the General's house."
Shi Lan pursed her lips and tried to hide the smile that came up, even if the ordinary family banquets in the General's Mansion are made by professional chefs, how can she, a half-person, compare with others, Mo Yun said this, she must want to make herself happy.
However, Shi Lan didn't want him to know that he was happy, so he glanced at him and snorted, "The general will eat cucumber strips when you invite you to the banquet." ”
Mo Yun sandwiched another piece of cucumber, churning and laughing silly, not saying yes or no.
Shi Lan glanced at him, served him a bowl of winter melon, watched him finish drinking, and then ...... Mo Yun stretched out the bowl that had been drunk to the point of dripping.
Shi Lan glared at him in annoyance and served him another bowl.
This time he drank half of it and opened his mouth, "This one is even better than the general's." ”
Shi Lan couldn't help it anymore and laughed.
Mo Yun was deliberately teasing her, and he was very happy to see her smiling.
Shi Lan saw that he smiled and squinted at himself, and was a little embarrassed, so he glanced at him with black and white eyes, "Where did you learn it, flamboyant." ”
Mo Yun wiped his mouth, looking at Shi Lan with a seemingly aggrieved but cunning look.
Shi Lan couldn't help but smile again, and said, "Since it's delicious, eat more, I made it all special." ”
Mo Yun responded loudly and ate with his head buried in his head.
Shi Lan filled a bowl of winter melon cup, drank it slowly, and glanced at Zhou Yuxiu, who was angry.
Seeing that their husband and wife are so affectionate, she is afraid that her heart is uncomfortable, but if she wants to get involved in others, she has to suffer such torture, uncomfortable, and want to cry, it is all her own fault.
Zhou Yuxiu ate two bites without knowing the taste, and then retreated.
Before leaving, she turned her eyes to look at Mo Yun faintly, but saw that he didn't raise his head and ate very happily.
Zhou Yuxiu returned to the house with tears in her eyes, sat on the edge of the kang, she pounded the pillow with hatred, her joints were beaten red, and then she lay on the pillow and cried, at this time she couldn't help but ask in her heart, whether it was worth it.
In fact, she didn't know why, as soon as she saw Mo Yun, her heart was uncontrollable, as if something was pulling her, making her can't help but get closer to him.
Yuxiu had also been confused and hesitated, but these bewilderments and hesitations disappeared the moment she saw Mo Yun, and there was only one thought in her heart, she must get Mo Yun, regardless of the cost, regardless of all the consequences.
Yuxiu slowly stopped crying, and her eyes that were washed with tears were clear Lingling, but the ruthlessness and determination revealed in them were cloudy and hideous.
In the main room, Aunt Wang removed the plates and bowls, Shi Lan sat on the kang sewing half a piece of thin cotton clothes, and Mo Yun walked over mysteriously with a letter.
"Lan Niang, what do you think this is?"
Shi Lan tilted her head and glanced at it, seeing that the envelope had not been opened, and at this moment the work in her hand was finished with two stitches, because she was anxious about the work in her hand, she was a little careless, "What?" ”
Mo Yun waited for a while, and when he saw her burying her head in sewing clothes again, she couldn't help but feel a little lost.
Reaching out and snatching her clothes, he held the envelope back in front of her eyes, and said, "This is a letter from my brother in the army. ”
Shi Lan blinked, his attention was finally on him, and he said that the letter would come, she was illiterate, what did he let her see, but seeing the expectation looming in his eyes, Shi Lan still followed his mind and asked, "What did your brother in the army say?" But something is looking for you? ”
Mo Yun smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "This is a good brother in my army, I will be in office in two days, and I just happened to pass by here, saying that I want to come and sit." ”
Shi Lan nodded, signaling that he knew, but he was strange in his heart, although his brother's visit was a happy thing, but he didn't need to be so happy, and he came over and asked her to throw away her work to listen.
Mo Yun wanted to say something, but thinking that the matter had not been done yet, it was better to wait until it was done, thinking of Shi Lan's happy appearance after the matter was completed, Mo Yun smiled silly.
Shi Lan glanced at him several times, and when he saw that he didn't realize it at all, he also felt that it was cola, so he also laughed.
The husband and wife smirked at each other for a while, and Shi Lan finally remembered what was going on, and was busy talking about what she had discussed with Aunt Liutang.
Mo Yun hesitated, "I know Uncle Jiutang's house, the location is a bit out of the way, if you let Yuxiu go and live alone, it's a little unsafe." ”
As soon as Shi Lan heard this, her face immediately fell, "Aunt Cousin has said that there are no elders in our family, and she lives with us as a girl, so it's not good to spread it, not to mention that we are still in the filial piety period, if such a reputation is really spread, how will you enter the officialdom in the future?" ”
Mo Yun sighed and said, "Let this matter go for a while, and wait for my brother to come over." ”
Shi Lan glared at him.
Mo Yun smiled helplessly, stepped forward and touched her little face comfortingly, "Good, you listen to me this time." ”
Shi Lan pouted, shook her head, made the kang on the bed directly, lifted the quilt, covered her head, and ignored him.
Mo Yun stood by the kang for a while, and saw that Shi Lan refused to come out, so he had to blow out the oil lamp and go to the kang.
In the darkness, a sturdy arm poked out of the quilt and quietly rested on the bulging quilt beside it.
The bulge shook back and forth, swinging his arm to the edge of the mattress.
The arm paused and climbed up again.
The bulge shook again.
The arm falls again, and then climbs ......
After repeating this several times, the arm finally took root firmly in the bulge.
