Chapter 18: The Monkey Is Caught
There was silence for a while, which made Lu Mu a little embarrassed.
I heard her son say that Su Rui returned the medical expenses to him, and she had a better impression of this girl, and she knew that people were sensible, so she came over for a trip today, otherwise she would have called Su Rui directly to the office and told her to collect shrimp, and she couldn't shirk it as a worker.
I don't know if this little girl doesn't understand, or doesn't appreciate it?
Although Su Rui is short of money now, she will be paid at the end of the month.
Aunt Wang's family is in difficulty, but every time she goes, she is entertained with delicious food and drink, so she is unwilling to get involved in Aunt Wang's business and earn that little profit, so she wants Mother Lu to contact Aunt Wang.
The two looked at each other speechlessly, and Su Rui couldn't help but yawn.
In Lu Mu's opinion, there is a kind of meaning of driving people.
"So be it." Mother Lu turned around, but Su Rui stopped her.
"Boss Zhou, wait a minute... Or I'll go to Aunt Wang after finishing my work early tomorrow morning, tell me how many catties you want, I'll let her send it to you first, and then ask for shrimp in the garden, you can order it directly from her. ”
"Okay." Without further ado, Lu Mu pulled her face and left.
didn't say a word of greetings, and didn't even let her in the door, Lu's mother felt aggrieved for a while, she had lived for half her life, where was she not held and respected?
I was dissatisfied with Su Rui's ignorance.
Su Rui didn't think about it so much, sitting on the bed, facing the sunset outside the window, listening to the loneliness of all kinds of insects.
It is estimated that it is only seven o'clock now, and I was disturbed by Lu's mother so much, and before it was time to go to work, my hungry stomach was gurgling at this time.
A few cicadas broke the silence, and Su Rui pushed open the door, suddenly trotted into the orchard, and then lowered her head and groped.
"Who's there?". Lin Liguo held a huge notepad in his hand, dressed neatly and neatly, not too tall, and raised his chin slightly when he spoke.
Su Rui looked at him suspiciously, as if she had never seen this person.
"I'm the technical instructor here, who are you?" Lin Liguo obviously didn't know Su Rui who had just arrived.
Su Rui said: "You are the husband of Yuan Ling's eldest sister, hello, I am a new worker." ”
As if he had heard his wife say that there was a new girl from another village, Lin Liguo nodded, "It's not time to go to work yet." ”
Su Rui smiled shyly, "I caught the monkey." ”
I heard the cicada chirping just now, and I thought that now should be the time to know the monkey unearthed, and the monkey is also a cicada chrysalis, which has a high nutritional value and has more tonic and medicinal functions.
"The garden drives away cicadas every year, and there are many poplar forests on the roadside of this little thing." Then he didn't care about Su Rui and went to look elsewhere.
At this moment, hearing the sound of cicadas getting louder and louder, Su Rui couldn't help but be greedy, she ran back to the house to find a glass can, and ran towards the poplar forest.
The cicadas near the poplar forest are very loud, and now the countryside still catches the monkey from time to time, and touches it until the moon hangs in the middle of the sky by the evening afterglow, and in more than two hours, it is estimated that there are forty or fifty of them, which is enough to eat a meal.
At this point, the kitchen could not be used, so she built a simple stove out of stones and waste bricks in the yard, piled dry wood blocks in it, made a fire, and then washed the monkeys and skewered them with wire to roast and eat.
Whether the taste is good or not is secondary, the main thing is to be able to eat when it is cooked.
"What are you doing?" Lu Feng walked around casually at night, and when he saw a fire here, he walked over, but he didn't expect to see Su Rui baking things at night.
He has good eyesight, and he can see clearly from a long distance that Su Rui is roasting nothing else, but a string of "bugs"!
"Brother Lu Feng, you came just in time, this skewer has just been baked." Su Rui handed him the skewer he had baked, while Lu Feng stood in place and didn't move for a long time.
There was an eerie silence in the courtyard.
"This is a monkey, a cicada chrysalis, something that can be eaten!" Su Rui suddenly thought of the problem of the times, and estimated that in this era, it is still fashionable to eat this from time to time.
Lu Feng's figure was buried in the darkness, and Su Rui couldn't see the expression on his face at the moment, but he didn't have to think about it to know that he must have felt hungry and crazy.
But her hand still stayed in mid-air, and she shook the "worm string" even more proudly, which means: dare to eat?
Hearing the playful tone in her tone, Lu Feng grabbed the "worm string", as if to prove something, and bit down and said, "I know." ”
Su Rui smiled "poof", it was the first time she saw Lu Feng, who had never changed his face, and she would have this kind of angry performance.
There is no taste of the monkey, the skin is crispy, and the chew is soft and glutinous in the mouth, but it is not so difficult to accept, "When I was on the field patrol, I saw my soldiers eat this." ”
At that time, the little soldier beckoned him to try it, although Lu Feng was not disgusted with this thing, but a child who grew up in the army since he was a child, and there was no shortage of food and clothing, where was he willing to eat this? At that time, he left with a cold face.
I didn't expect that I couldn't escape after all.
The corners of Su Rui's mouth curved, with a nostalgic smile, "This is a must-eat delicacy in summer." ”
In the summer, she and her friends would go to the roadside stalls to eat some food stalls, order a plate, sprinkle cumin, and the taste was amazing.
And now, her friends, her relatives, are all away from her, and her life has to start over.
Under the light of the fire, Su Rui's little face was flushed, and the bruises from the beating had gradually disappeared, revealing the original delicate skin, although it was not very fair, it was difficult to hide the youthful childishness of this age.
Lu Feng stared at her side like this, his eyes revealing a gentleness that even he hadn't noticed, while Su Rui was full of only fragrant monkeys and didn't notice this.
Although Lu Feng joined in this meal, most of the monkeys still entered Su Rui's stomach.
After finishing in the morning, Su Rui went to Aunt Wang's house to bring the shrimp from the orchard, and helped Aunt Wang catch shrimp, and worked until the afternoon without rest.
On the way, Aunt Wang said happily: "The village secretary and the town mayor came over that day, and many people gathered around to watch, although the Du family closed the door, the voice of the village secretary and the murderer could be heard clearly outside, and you sent people away, and your uncle and aunt's head was never raised." ”
That day, after the Du family went back, they were afraid that Su Rui would really report the case, and they made another fuss at home, not to mention, Liu Fengxian was even beaten by Du Zhong a few times, and she didn't go out for several days.
Later, there was no movement in this matter, they thought that Su Rui didn't dare to do too much, and the matter turned over like this, but they didn't expect the village secretary and the town mayor to kill their families.
The village secretary gave a good education to the two of them, and they couldn't raise their heads directly, which was a shame in the village.
And the mayor of the town also said that he would support Su Rui, this time I will give them a chance, if they dare to make trouble again, they will settle the old accounts together, and then sue them for child abuse and personal violence...
The two members of the Du family had never seen such a battle, so they hurriedly nodded and swore an oath... I swore that I would never dare to mess with Su Rui, the little ancestor, again.
Su Rui couldn't understand for a while, the original owner was abused like that in the past, no one stood up for her, how could the village secretary and the town take care of her affairs now?
Is it because of Lu Feng's relationship?
