Chapter 6 Mercy and Self-Restraint
Mother Xu also knew that Ah Kun's child was a little stunned, but she was afraid of making an unpleasant scene, so she nudged Ah Kun in the middle of the reminder: "It's really you kid, what are you looking at?" This is the second miss of the Chen Mansion! ”
A slight smile tugged at the corner of Ah Kun's lips. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info This smile spread from the corners of his lips to his eyes, like a peach blossom blooming slowly, brushing Xu's mother, walking in front of Si Ling in two steps unhurriedly, stretching out his hand, and gently touching the snow-colored narrow lace on Si Ling's dress with his fingertips: "This is very flattering to you." Si Ling felt numb on his body, and the snakeskin-like huqin was next to him, slightly crispy and itchy, so he turned around and ran away, ignoring him again.
This batch of silkworms has been raised for more than ten days, silkworm sand according to Xu's mother said take rice wine and brown sugar and fry it for Si Xiao, sure enough, the symptoms have eased, Mrs. Chen is very grateful, specially prepared a gift for Si Ling to bring, the gift box is Ah Zhen carried, Si Ling walked into Xu's house, to the back to find the silkworm baby, Ah Zhen handed the box to Xu's mother, the two of them pushed it, Si Ling ran out: "The silkworm is gone!" ”
Mother Xu smiled: "This batch of silkworms has pupated, didn't the second miss watch them spin silk on the silkworm mountain last time?" ”
"Where's the silk?" Si Ling said anxiously: "What about the silkworm cocoon? ”
"Oh! Those cocoons can't make any silk. Mother Xu said disapprerovitically, "I'll take it to Master Tao to fry silkworm chrysalis." ”
Fry...... Silkworm chrysalis? It's just fried the silkworm baby?! Si Ling was dumbfounded.
Mother Xu didn't notice her shock, and explained to her with a smile: "Master Tao's specialty dish is fried in oil, mixed with chili peppers and green onions and garlic to fry together, it is very delicious."
Saying that, Xu Ning and Ah Kun came together outside the door. Ah Kun is holding a blue flower bowl in his hand, and the hot one is the newly made spicy fried silkworm chrysalis, snow-white garlic, tender green pickled cabbage strips, red peppers, and jet-black silkworm pupa, which are pleasing to the eye, and even more delicious when smelling, Ah Zhen swallowed and salivaed. Mother Xu greeted her and said, "Ahhh How can you bring so much, this is for you to eat! Ah Kun smiled: "We still have it." ”
Sure enough, there are more garlic slices and cabbage in that bowl than silkworm chrysalis, and the real citizens will live a good life, shredded radish mixed with sea stinger skin, that shredded radish will be more than sea stinger skin, fortunately, Master Tao's pickled cabbage gang is also quite delicious, a trace of silk is drawn into strips, it looks like green onions, but it is not so choking, it has no flavor, Xu's mother took it with a smile, and beckoned Ah Zhen and Si Ling to eat together: "Second Miss I'm afraid I haven't eaten this, try it, the porridge is very good." "There was hot mixed rice porridge in the pot early, and I put it out one bowl after another, and I took another enamel jar for Ah Kun to take back.
Si Ling pursed her lips and took a step back.
Ah Kun put the two chopsticks in his hand together, and said unhurriedly: "Second Miss was afraid of this. ”
Si Ling glared at him.
Xu Ning pulled the corner of Ling Yi and persuaded: "Taste it? Really delicious? ”
Xu's mother's ancestral home is Zhenhai, which belongs to Ningbo, and it is also regarded as a heavy taste territory in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, drunk shrimp and crab stinky winter melon, everything comes, Xu Ning is close to the ink black, and he has been influenced by the neighbor Master Tao for a long time, and he has not felt that the fried silkworm chrysalis is what.
Ah Kun shook his head and told Xu Ning not to persuade again: "Girls are afraid." ”
It was clear that the general was excited, and Si Ling took it seriously as an honest and unceremonious move, grabbed chopsticks and stuffed a silkworm chrysalis into his mouth. Mother Xu hurriedly pushed the porridge bowl to her: "It's too salty, just eat the porridge!" ”
Si Ling puffed out his cheeks, didn't drink porridge, didn't chew chrysalis, stared at Ah Kun for a moment, and finally didn't dare to swallow, "that thing" rested on his tongue, his teeth didn't dare to touch, and slowly saliva soaked out, moistening it so that it slowly shook, and became more and more unbearable, and suddenly turned around and rushed out.
Xu Ning hurriedly followed.
Ah Zhenben stood up to chase Miss, but when she saw Xu Ning following out, she stopped chasing again. Mother Xu "belched" repeatedly, and she in turn persuaded Mother Xu: "What are you afraid of eating something?" A few years ago, there was a Mrs. Sun who gave the young lady blue mold cheese - you really don't know, master, it is always a strawberry berry, right? People turned out to be moldy mold, and they were more stinky than our stinky tofu! The young lady took a mouthful and vomited, and it was dark, and our wife didn't take it seriously, saying that it was good to have experience. Silkworm chrysalis is always better than blue mold cheese, it's good to have Ning Amei with you! Let's let them talk to each other on their own. Then he sat down with his mother. A faint smile on the corner of Ah Kun's lips, biting the chopsticks and enduring it, and sipping porridge by himself.
Si Ling didn't run out on the street, but in the backyard of Xu's house, and spit out the contents of his mouth on the muddy ground at the root of the locust tree. Xu Ning pinched some cinders in the bamboo basket and covered them, Si Ling folded some leaves and covered them on the cinders, and said solemnly to Xu Ning: "You are not allowed to eat this in the future." ”
"Silkworm chrysalis?" Xu Ning asked strangely, "Is it so disgusting?" ”
Si Ling shook his head: "It's not disgusting." "But why can't you eat it? I can't make sense, think about it, "The silkworms we raise shouldn't be eaten." ”
"The silkworms we raised", this can be regarded as a reason, and Mother Xu recognized it. This batch of silkworm sand, helpful to Sixiao's condition, Xu's mother hatched a silkworm to raise, wait for it to be a pupae, not for the tailor to shop, the cocoon is not enough to send to reeling silk, boiled hot water, take chopsticks to stir slowly, the silk head slowly wound out, will be around the silk of two chopsticks, patted flat and dried, can be placed in the stationery box to absorb ink, the cocoon in the silkworm chrysalis, naturally scalded to death. Mother Xu explained Si Ling on the side: "Being a silkworm is this life." If you don't take its silk, it will bite through the cocoon and give birth to a child, and it will still die. This plaque silkworm raises a room of children, who will take care of it? It's not starvation yet, it's better to send it to the end now. ”
It is reasonable, Si Ling did not refute his mouth, and worked with Xu Ning to scoop up the scalded chrysalis and bury it under the big locust tree.
The shade of the tree has been thick and beautiful like an umbrella cover, the weather is hot, the spring silkworms can not be raised, and then to raise, you have to wait for autumn. Fortunately, when it's hot, Sixiao's cold bone wind is not too strong. Si Xiao, who doesn't have this problem, is also a cheerful and active teenager, who goes out to play every now and then, always called Si Ling, Si Ling always calls Xu Ning, and there is a girl from the Sun family, with a single name and a Jing character, about the same age as Si Xiao, she also loves to play with Si Xiao's brothers and sisters. One day, Si Ling just washed his hair, wrapped it in a bath towel, sat in a rocking chair under the window, wore hollow thin sheepskin slippers on his feet, stepped on a leather stool with coffee noodles, held a newspaper in his hand, spread it on his knees, shook off the bath towel, his long hair was slowly drying in the sun, the newspaper turned a page, and raised his eyes to look at Sun Jing: "Yo, Sister Sun is also there!" ”
"That's right!" Sun Jing felt uncomfortable, it was not good to really be angry with her, and forced a smile, "Haven't I been here all the time!" ”
"It's strange," Si Ling pretended to look left and right, "Why didn't the eldest brother see it?" Where Sister Sun appears, doesn't there always have to be a big brother? ”
Sun Jing really couldn't laugh: "Your eldest brother fiddled with the generator, isn't it good for me to talk to you?" ”
