7. Pumpkin honey soup

Chapter VII

Peng Fei responded to the pear blossom indiscriminately, his eyes kept looking at the orange, and he couldn't help but shudder when she was a traverser. Could it be that this Pengfei likes oranges in his private heart? She was preparing in her heart for the tragic drama of the two people who were engaged to be separated by the feudal society, Songbai stood sideways in front of the orange and blocked Peng Fei's gaze, and called: "Peng Fei is out of school?" ”

Peng Fei smiled embarrassedly: "Brother Songbai, you come to the market to play?" Why don't you go to my house and sit down? ”

"No, we'll have to go around again." Songbai looked at Pengfei, "I've lost weight recently, so I can't just focus on studying." He took out a book from the basket, wrapped in cloth, "This is your book I borrowed last time." ”

"Finished reading so soon?" Peng Fei took the book in a daze, "Brother Songbai, Sister Orange......" He still wanted to say a few words to Orange, his mother had not let him go to find Orange, and finally met him, of course he had to explain the matter of retiring from his family.

"Peng Fei, go back to lunch, don't let your mother come out to look for you in a while." Songbai patted him on the shoulder, leading the pear blossom and orange to leave first.

After walking a long way, Orange can still feel the gaze on his back, which is particularly uncomfortable. Like complaining, and like expecting, she wondered who was the person who was dismissed. But she didn't expect that Songbai had really read the book, and it seemed that it was taught by Peng Fei?

When passing by a stall selling hairpins, Orange stopped and picked two peach hairpins and spent the rest of the money. From the time they crossed to the present, both Chen and Sun's heads were bare. The two of them also really feel sorry for her, and she has to express that as for Chi Dazhu and Zhao He, the next time they have the opportunity to drink some wine, it will be considered filial piety.

A little further is the stall that kills the pig plum, she has been hungry for bone broth for a long time, and the soup can be made into a marinated bottom, and the hot and sour noodles are also delicious. The copper coin was gone, she glanced at Songbai, and Songbai nodded clearly, "Go ahead." ”

"Uncle, business is so good." Orange greeted Pig Killer Li, "Bring me some pork liver, pig ears, and some pork ribs." ”

"Isn't this the daughter of the Chi family and the two babies of the Zhao family? The last time I cooked for my family, it made me lose face, and I asked you to cook when the full moon wine came two days later. Killing the pig Li neatly said, "This is all for the uncle to send you." ”

"This can't be done, you gave me half a pound of meat last time, otherwise I won't buy it." Orange doesn't like to take advantage of others, so Songbai took out six cents, "Uncle, here you go." "There were only two people who killed the pig, and they only collected three cents and added some pork to them.

The wharf is in the southwest corner, and at best it is only a transit station for the river, and there are many people coming and going to do business. The men were busy unloading, and there was really nothing else to sell except for a shop selling baked cakes nearby. Watching the man eat all the baked cakes with relish, he had to eat four or five baked cakes, not to mention the dishes, and there was not even water.

If it is indeed unrealistic to sell tofu brains here, tofu brains are delicious, but these men who can eat should not be full, and it is unrealistic to eat tofu brains all day long.

"Brother, Sister Orange, what do you two look like?" Rika looked at the sun viciously, "Why don't we find a place to sit for a while?" ”

"Okay, I know you're afraid of the heat, I'll go back and make something to eat for you." Orange smiled and nodded pear blossom's nose.

"Sister Orange, you can be hungry for me, I see that it is a lot heavier than before."

"It's good to be thin before?" Orange ignored her coquettishness, turned her head and said to Songbai: "I think it's okay to set up a stall here, selling fruit cakes and cold skins in summer, and selling hot and sour noodles and noodles in winter, which is guaranteed to make money." Brother Songbai, what do you say? She felt that the pine and cypress still had a certain amount of knowledge, and of course the village grass could not only have a good skin.

"I wonder how many hands you have?" Songbai raised his eyebrows and asked Orange, "You can't be busy with fruit cakes alone, and you don't need anyone to do the land at home?" ”

"......" This is really a serious problem, Chi Dazhu will definitely not give up farming, and the Chen family will help her at most when the farm is slack. Over there in the old courtyard, her grandmother is even worse, the eldest aunt and the third aunt...... It is also necessary to take care of one's own family.

"Pear blossom might as well you and me do it, and we'll share the money we earn." Orange thought for a moment, if she earned money while the farm was slack, she would not only be able to subsidize the family, but also make her father and mother support her with all their hearts. In addition, she didn't believe that Songbai could sit idly by.

"Okay, it's just that I don't know anything, it's not good to divide half of it, that's not taking advantage of you." Rika nodded in agreement without any problems, she also spends her days with Orange all day, but she just changed places to play.

Orange squinted his eyes and smiled, "Don't take advantage, just let your brother help when the time comes." ”

Songbai looked at the orange with a wicked smile on his face and hooked his lips, "Okay, it's just that you pay me." ”

"As long as you do it, I'll give it to you." Orange got up and patted his buttocks, "The three of us have been hanging for a hundred years, and we can't be wrong to pay attention when we go back." ”

Pear Blossom and Orange held out their little fingers, and Songbai interjected, "But you have to listen to me." "If you don't agree, you won't do it.

Look, this is on the nose and face, machismo, why listen to him! He can only be regarded as a former YY object, not even a current one. Besides, she is the person who travels through it, and he doesn't bow down under her skirt and is the main guest.

"Forget it, since Brother Songbai doesn't want to, I won't force you." Orange gestured and withdrew his little thumb, "Go back." ”

Songbai really patted the soil on his body and stood up, the way back was not as easy as when he came, Songbai also ate her two cakes when eating noodles at noon, Rao is back basket with two pieces of meat, she still felt very tired. Tired. I don't know how far she can go to make a fortune.

"Sister Orange, don't be angry. It's not like you don't know who my brother is? He just likes to worry about it, and he used to say that if you go east, you won't go west. Rika said with her fingers hinged, "I heard my mother say that he even had to take care of what headbands you brought when you were a child." ”

In this way, she really recalled a lot of such things in the past. Tsk tsk, what kind of life did Orange live in the past, it was her accustomed pine and cypress to do whatever she wanted! She wants to resist and get justice for the former oranges.

*

"Mother, I'm back." When she got home, it was already late in the morning, and she hurriedly washed her face, "Daddy, I plan to sell fruit cakes." ”

Chi Dazhu said "En", "Girl, my father is still not at ease, our farmers have never done business in their lives, if we lose money, this is a loss...... "It costs money to buy a stove or something, and his family doesn't have much money in total, otherwise it would not be possible to even have a pavement."

Orange was silent for a while, what Chi Dazhu said was not unreasonable, although she was sure of what she was doing, there was an accident in everything......

She is still busy in her hands, making a fire to stew pork ribs, and now the stew can not taste good at night, and went to the backyard to pick pumpkins, it is so hot today that it is difficult to ensure that pear blossoms and pines and cypresses will not suffer from heat stroke, she is not a conscienceless person like Songbai.

Pumpkin and honey are not only delicious, but also can relieve the heat, and it is not difficult to prepare. In the past, she was often instructed by Comrade Chi Chi to make this dim sum, counting the days, and the jam made from the wild fruits picked back from the mountains should also be edible, I don't know what the taste is.

Open a jar and taste it, sweet and sour, if only there was a well or cellar in her house, the finished things can also be put into the well to cool down, it shouldn't be difficult to dig a well, right? Cellar, let's wait until she has money.

Thinking of the money, she sighed, Chen and Chi Dazhu also frowned when they heard this sigh, Chen asked Chi Dazhu tentatively: "Father of the child, otherwise let the child do it, didn't you say it was good yesterday." ”

Orange pricked up her ears to listen to the movement, "Alas, I'm not worried about her suffering, it's such a hot day, and I have to work in the field for two more days, and none of us can help her." ”

Sighing softly, she knew that her father was for her good, and most of the time she agreed yesterday was that she drank too much and was not sober. "Uncle, I'm free to help her with Lihua, so you can be relieved. I think doing business on the docks should be fine. Songbai's voice sounded, a young man who was only sixteen or seventeen, but his voice had the function of being steady and deceiving thirty or forty women.

"Since the pines and cypresses are helping to look at the oranges, don't worry." Chen was very happy, with joy in her voice, probably not being able to give birth to a son was always her pain, and even with the pine and cypress who grew up watching it since childhood, she was very kind.

"Well, I'll think again." Chi Dazhu took a sip of chrysanthemum water soaked in oranges, her daughter was not the same as before, but she was still the same stubborn.

"Dad, Brother Songbai has helped, why don't you agree?" Orange ran out of the kitchen and glared at Songbai, if she had just agreed to her at the docks.

"Won't I say yes?" Chi Dazhu raised his head and poured saliva, raised his legs and walked out.

"What are you going to do, Dad?" Orange called Chi Dazhu, her father was going to run away angrily?

"I'll set you the stove."

Orange went back to the kitchen satisfied, the pumpkin was still steaming in the steamer, and the air was already filled with the sweet smell of pumpkin. Songbai followed him into the kitchen, with an expression on his face that I knew you couldn't handle it.

"No, light a fire for me, don't be too big." She was angry and commanded Songbai, but Songbai listened to her words and lit the fire, and the two of them were so quiet that no one spoke.

Pumpkin honey soup is delicious whether it is eaten hot or cold, and is suitable for all ages. The pumpkin is steamed and cooled and sifted, and the sifted pumpkin puree is added with honey, sugar, and wild strawberry jam. Red and yellow collide, and the sweetness of pumpkin, honey, and jam is sweet and sour, and the sweetness between the lips and teeth lasts for a long time.

presented two large bowls to Songbai, and handed Songbai a hairpin bought on the street, "Bring it to my aunt, I won't go to your house." ”

"Well, let's try some cold skin first."

"Another day, I want to pack Chaos Miles tonight."
