Chapter 018: A Treat
After more than a month of learning to cook, I finally know how to cook a few dishes, and I always want to find an opportunity to show off.
My parents were busy in the store, so they had a quick meal at noon, and I ate at school, so the whole family could get together to eat in the morning and evening.
In the past, my mother cooked the lunch meal on Sunday in the morning, and I ate it when it was hot, but after learning to cook, I felt that I was good at cooking, and of course I wanted to make my own lunch.
For today's lunch, I fought until midnight last night, and finally finished all my homework, and I can stretch my hand today.
On Sunday morning, when my mother was about to leave the house, she kept chattering.
"Rou'er, there are a few meat buns in the morning, you can simply eat them, if you don't like to eat, there are dumplings and chaos in the refrigerator, what you want to eat and cook it yourself......"
"Mom, I know, I won't go hungry at noon." I laughed at her three hundred and sixty uneasy inkblots.
Seeing that my parents were finally gone, I was eager to figure out what to eat for lunch.
"Sister Rou, can you start preparing lunch so early......" Brother Hao said with concern when he saw my overjoyed expression.
When my parents left, Brother Hao was buzzing in my ears again, and I said impatiently the plan in my heart: "Don't meddle in things, I will definitely open your eyes at noon, let your mother have a good meal, and your mother and son will get together ......"
When it comes to the reunion of mother and son, Haoqi is grateful, and finds that there are signs of violence in her sister's words, so she doesn't dare to talk more, hides in the corner of the wall and draws circles, and quietly watches me busy.
First of all, I want to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, although there are a few kinds of vegetables in the refrigerator, it is okay to eat by myself, and it cannot be used as a main dish if you have a treat.
I pooled my pocket money together, and when I saw that there were still more than 20 yuan, I felt that it was enough, so I went out with great interest.
Haoqi knew her thoughts, and was robbed of two sentences just now, so she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only observe the situation and adapt to the situation.
When I came to the vegetable market, I saw that there were a lot of people selling seafood, and I knew that it was too expensive, so I went to see the pork.
It's good to see fresh pork, and even better freshly broken ribs.
"Auntie, how do you sell pork ribs?"
"Twenty yuan a catty, little sister's ribs are fresh today, weigh two catties." The middle-aged woman suggested with a ruddy face.
Twenty yuan, also called two catties, I have a total of more than 20 yuan, and the money to buy one pound of pork ribs is gone, so forget it.
"How much meat is a pound?" I asked without giving up.
"Sixteen yuan a catty, you weigh a few catties back, and your parents will praise you." The middle-aged woman saw the hesitation on the little girl's face, and her disappointed eyes lit up with new hope.
From two catties to a few catties, how can she afford it, it's okay to buy one catty.
After picking gently for a long time, he said to the impatient middle-aged woman, "Auntie, please cut a pound from this piece of meat." ”
"What, how to cut a catty, it's not easy to sell after cutting this piece, you can choose from these small pieces." The middle-aged woman said disgustedly.
The pile of small pieces of meat were all leftovers from the sale, all belly meat, and it was soft and collapsed, and it didn't look appetizing at all.
"Auntie, those meats are not good, my mother will beat me if I buy them back, she will give me twenty yuan, I can only buy a pound of meat, please cut a piece for me......" I pleaded pitifully, squeezed out a smile, and looked at each other with tears in my eyes.
Seeing that the other party was indifferent, in order to achieve the goal, I tried my best to please me.
Kung fu is not afraid of caring people, and under my soft grinding and hard soaking, I finally touched the woman's compassion.
"You kid, I'm afraid of you, pay the money first, and then cut the meat for you." The woman was obviously knife-mouthed, her serious face softened, and she was worried that I would not have enough money, so she took sixteen yuan and cut a good piece of meat on top of the large piece of meat. Weigh it no more, no less, just right, put it on and hand it to me.
"Thank you, Auntie." I put away the fake expression I had just put away and thanked me brightly.
I still have a few yuan left, so I went to buy some fresh vegetables, and the twenty yuan was spent. I felt sour and regretful in my heart, if I had money, I could buy seafood ribs, but now the money is too little, and I went home with a complicated mood with the things I bought.
The scene just now was seen by Haoqi, and he felt quite uncomfortable. If they had money, his sister wouldn't be so lowly trying to please others, and he felt sad.
He has nothing, no ability, no money and no ability, so he can only hide in the corner and watch her be wronged.
He didn't want to speak, let alone say anything, and he blamed himself silently.
Brother Hao didn't speak, I thought he was immersed in cultivation, I didn't want to disturb him, and when I got home, I excitedly knocked on Aunt Hao's door.
I know what happened a few days ago, Aunt Hao is so pitiful, invite her to a meal to make her happy.
Although our two families are neighbors, we rarely have dinner together when we have things to do with each other.
Now that my parents are not at home, I can be the master again.
After knocking on the door, strangely there was no response. I was so disappointed that the idea of a treat quickly faded. If Aunt Hao is not there, Brother Hao can only smell it, what's the point of me eating alone, it's better to come back and eat together at night.
Depressed when I got home, I anxiously walked around the house, and after ten minutes, I heard the sound of the door opening outside, and saw Aunt Hao coming back from the doorway.
I hurriedly opened the door and greeted me with great surprise and enthusiasm: "Aunt Hao, I want to invite you to dinner at noon today, and I will cook the meat and vegetables I bought just now......
"Rou'er, no need, I'll make some food myself, why didn't I go to school today?"
"Auntie, I'll rest today on Sunday."
"Rou'er, your parents have gone to the store, right? Are you home by yourself at noon? "Aunt Hao and I have been neighbors for a few years, and of course she knows about my family's situation, so she asked hesitantly.
"Auntie, it's still me at noon."
Aunt Hao immediately changed her mind and said to me affectionately: "Rou'er, Aunt will change her clothes and go over, you go back to the house and wait for me first." ”
"Okay." One of the purposes of my cooking study was to feel sad when I saw Aunt Hao's haggard face, and I wanted to do my filial piety for Brother Hao. Now that the opportunity has come, of course, I am excited to start preparing.
I scooped the rice and put it in the rice cooker and simmered it.
Then cut the pork into small pieces and bring it to a boil in water...... I was busy when I heard a knock on the door, so I hurried to open the door.
It turned out that Aunt Hao had come over, still carrying apple drinks and other things in her hand, and I hurriedly let her in, and she quickly smelled the fragrance in the air.
"Rou'er, you're starting to get busy now, it smells so fragrant."
She changed into her slippers and walked in and saw what was going on in the kitchen.
"Rou'er, what do you want to do with this meat?"
"Auntie, I've learned how to cook, I want to make red stewed pork."
"If you want to eat meat, I'll do it, you go and learn." Aunt Hao washed her hands and began to be busy.
Hao's mother wanted to do it herself, and I felt very embarrassed.
"Auntie, I'd better come."
"I'm fine, let's do it together." Aunt Hao insisted despite her upset.
"Okay!" I agreed, and the two of them worked together, and half an hour later, the meal was ready.
Aunt Hao's words of praise continued, she wanted to cook for this child, but she didn't expect her to really know how to cook.
The fragrance wafted in the room, we sat down to eat, Brother Hao gratefully praised in my ear, and the soft words warmed my heart: "Sister, thank you, so fragrant!" ”
I felt more satisfied than I had ever felt before, and if Aunt Hao knew that Brother Hao was also with us, she would be as happy as I was.
